No Luck

Sam Wilson, Raymond Robbins and
o. M. Olson started Monday morning
to Sun River Diversion Dam on q
fishing expedition.
They left at 4 A. NJ, had brealfasr
IN Great Falls and were on the fish
ing grounds at 8 A. NJ. They return
ed at l0:3O with fourteen fish after
a hard days work. The lake above
the dam was frozen out to deep wate1
making fishing very difficult Below
the dam the river was open but the
trout were not biting.
One reason for this was the wind.
AS the Freneh-C Canadian poet puts it
'aThe win she blew lax hurricane,
bimeby she blew some more" and only
the weight Of the individual kept him
upon bis feet.
The gentlemen were interested to
see the number Of elk that were taken
out Every car passed carried at
least one and the stage was 50 heav-
lily loaded as to be barely able to

MYSlOST LAST
To STANFORD

Ihe football game between Stan
ford ard Belt rewuIted ia an official
score Of 12 to 0 IN favor Of Stamford
Ths Belt boys played hard. 70 them
belongs an ths credit Of playing q
losing game % the finish with nerve
and huIldog grit but they were hope
1essly outclassed.
The visitors used the regular form-
atiDn which allowed them to get into
the interferenee without tho loss OF
a stride and without falling over their
teammates They caught forward
passes on the run in approved style
and broke through the line almost as
will
Of course Rusty Miller got all the
credit for some sensational runs bar
those Of his teammates who kOrned
his protection a generous portion OF
this IL due.
One Of the Stanford tOuchdowns re-
suited from a sleeper pulled in exceIl-
ent style. The sleeper caught pass
wen down TO the goal line before the
Belt team knew Of his existence.
The game was started at O'Clock
to allUw the visitors to take train
23S back home.
For Belt Capt. "Hook" Nohl led
the fight. He encouraged the boys,
made desperate efforts to gain
ground. and tackled many runners
who might have added to the score.
Harcharick at center was accurate in
passing and put up strong defense.
Dover and Gossack at guard and
johnson and McCafferty at tackle
held to the last drop Of their strength
and opened up holes through which
the backs often made good yardage.
Leland and Jewell pulled down many
an end run or smashed MP the inter
ference. Remington backed up tbs
line and tackled fiercely. Simonia
and Nohl at half and Probst at safe
ty were always in the game and then
efforts helped to keep the score low.
Toward the end Of the game sInlonis .
who had outpunted Stanford two
yards to one and Johnson retired i
and Fred Remington and Donald Gull Z
den went into the line. Leland going Q
to half back IL
Only two Of the Belt boys will I

SIDE LIGHT ON ELK
SITUATION


Editor Independent
/ wish to take exception 70 yOui
editorials published Ia The Indepsnd
snt Nov. Q. for lznow yOu have beer
misinforned as 10 the condition exist
ing In the county adjacent b ths suE
River Elk preserve Ia the northern
part Of Lewis and CLARK county. Thil
preserve was created some Is years
ago or more as grazing ground foE
elk, and no other animals are ever
allowed 10 cross it. AT that time
there were probably e few hundred
head Of elk IN that territory. Since
that time the herd has increased T.
2 or 8 thousand. and the natural re-
suit is that the elk are now encroacA-
ing on the lands set aside for TIE
stocRmen. instead Of the stock graz-
ing on elk territory. 'as you aver.
The uuusual weather conditions OF
the last few weeks have resulted h
driving the elk out Of tho mountains
At exactly the time whsn the elk seas.
on Is open. and the result is an an.
usually big kin. Still however. Il sag
500 elk are killed and there is breed
ing herd Of 1900 or more left can
see no cause for alarm over extinc-
ton. It win simply mean that the
elk herd will be cut down a little
nearer the limits Of their pasture, the
game preserve.
!. among many others, have BEEN
grazing cattle on the forest reserve
adjacent to the preserve over 20
years, and we have never encroached
IN any elk territory. In fact the en-
.roaching has all been done by the
Tx. For several years past bands
II elk have winterel in and around
ny upper fields and other fields, on /
he high bunch grass that the cattle
lever get, but I or none Of the stock
nen have burst into print over II.
We believe in living and letting live.
There Is room FOR the elk and room
or the stock, but the elk should be
United in number, Just as our stock
must be limited 70 the area they ara
Illowed to Craze on. And the best
vay TO date q limiting the elk Is L. I
