of enactment will be used against
hem not merely by the organized and
distressed farmers, but by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, which had
endorsed the bill. Borah, Walsh, Reed
of Missouri and various other lawyers
were unwilling to invoke what they
thought was a vicious method Of re-
lief. The administration bloc were
unwilling to equaize economic con-
ditions between farmers and manu-
facturerS.
The unfavorable political effect OF
this roll call is likely to be registered
most definitely against Ernst IN Ken
lucky, Lenroot in Wisconsin, Weller
in Maryland and Willis in Ohio. But
it will also be felt by Butler IN Massa-
chusetts and Wadsworth in New
York. Sen, Copeland of New York
declared that he supported the bill be-

workers in manufacturing industries

Washington-In the decisive roll
call that defeated the McNary-Hau
en- farm relief bill in the senate, the
Coolidge administration modified not
merely the standpat senators who do
not come up for election this year,
but also the ones who stand in danger
of adverse verdict at the polls. PO-
htical managers for both the old par
ties looked upon this triumph of %
votes against 80 as one of the most
costly Republican regime ever Sc
cured. On that roll call the loss of
the senate to the Democrats appears
definitely to be assured.
Senators voting to kill the bill were
Bayard, Bingham, BOrah, Blease,
Broussard, Bruce, Butler, Couzens,

RESERVE SWAMPS
NC CABE BALL TEAM
Swanson Pitches NO-Hit, NO-Run
Game for Reserve While Team
Mates Pile Up Is Runs.

Reserve, July 5.-The ball game at
Froid last Saturday between our team
and McCabe and Bainville together,
was rather one-sided affair. Our
boys shut them out while we took ID
scores.
The Reserve team felt that they
were considerably crippled with Lund
and Bromberg away. Lund was spend
ing a couple of weeks in Lakota,
while Bromberg had a chance to work
before a much larger and perhaps
more appreciative crowd, pitching a
winning game for Plentywood against
Scobey, the score being 9 to 2. We
felt that we could let Louie go for
that days as the opposition would
probably be rather light.
Carl Swanson took Bromberg's
place and as a pitcher showed up
splendidly, having a nO-hit, no-run
game to his credit, which is an honor
even against a weak team. Hunter
also made a fine showing in his new
position. Bell was there with his
usual ability for any emergency.
The boys have a couple of dates to
fill with small teams from the neigh
boring towns, but will have to take
on something worth while soon or we
will lose some of our strong men
There will be a game with Westby at
Brush Lake Sunday.
In a conversation with the manager
of the local team in regard to the
proposed Reserve Whitehall game, he
J said that he would send up Wagner's
crew about October 31st to work them
over.

Old age retirement legislation for
the federal employees was saved at
the last moment. Senate conferees
had agreed to the Coolidge terms-a
maximum pension of $1,000 a year
rather than S1,200-and Sen. STAN
field was waiting to get the agree
ment of the Senate when it met at
noon on the final day. By good luck
the compromise went through-the
federal workers getting this slight
advance on their former pittance Of
pension in consequence of surrender
of their demand for a $1,000 maxi
mum and a lower age for retirement.
Sen. Cameron of Arizona, regular
Republican seeking reelection, held
the floor of the Senate almost con-
tinuously on the final day, blocking
action, on a long series of conference
reports and committee recommended
tions. For two hours the leaders and
active floor workers on both sides
tried by various devices to get him to
yield the floor, but because he had
| been refused action on an irrigation
bill affecting the settlers in Paradise
Valley, on the desert in his state, he
held out.
Coal control legislation got no
/ chance. The Longshoremen's acct
dent compensation bill died on the
/ House calendar. Resolution provid-
! inc for a $4,000 limit on slush funds
| for the election of senators were de-
MED a vote. Bills affecting railroads,
/ public lands, forests, hydro-electriC
! power, alien deportation, and a va
riety of other subjects went over IN
til the December session.
Sen. Walsh of Montana was able tc
persuade the House leaders to pass
on the last day, his bill already ap-
proved by the Senate to advance
the criminal prosecution of Fall
Dohney and Sinclair for the
Teapot Dome naval oil frauds. One
bill seeks the extradition of oil com
pany officials who gave 100000 tx
Fall through a dummy concern IL
n Canada. The other wipes out variou:
technical appeals by which the Grim
inal trials Of Fall, Doheny and Sin
clair are being delayed.
One of the significant events of The
day was Sen. Norris resignation o.
the craftsmanship of the Senate com
nittee on agriculture which he ha
held for three years. He is going t,
devote more Of his time to the fgh
over hydroff- electric power-to pre-
vent the General Electric power trus
from getting Muscle Shoals and tn
Boulder Canyon power dam whel
built. His disgust with the surren

Haugen farm relief bill, which h
supported as a compromise with hi
own bill providing for government

for December.

House judiciary committee was I'M
able to agree as to whether he should

appeals that he be dismissed, just as
in the early stages of the Daugherty
scandal. Now the House goes home,
wondering whether Fenning will re-
sign or be kept.
Failure to Dust him is symbolic of
the moral power of this session of
the House. Defeat of farm relief and
slush fund limitation gives an index
of the devotion of the Senate to pub
lie service.

TREMORS
SUNDAY evening
Light Shocks Felt In GaIIatin
and Other Parts of State
No Damage Reported

Two slight earthquake shocks, one
soon after 5 p. m. and the other five
hours later, were felt in Gallatin
county and other sections of the
state Sunday evening. The tremblOrs
were not severe enough to aus any
damage.
The disturbance was most notice
able in the territory affected by the
earthquake of June 81, 1925, when
great damage was done at Manhat-
tan, Logan, Three Forks, Maudlow
and contiguous vicinities. Reports
are that on the Northern Pacific east
of Lombard, Sundays shock s
brought down upon the tracks a few
rocks and bOulders but these were
speedily discovered and removed.
Possible connection between earth
shocks and barometer readings is re-
vealed by the fact that On Saturday.
just before the storm, the barometer
reading here was the lowest since
June, 1926, when the severe tremOrs
occurred. At other points in the
state, also, extremely low barometer
readings were recorded Saturday.

COLD SNAP HITS
GALLATIN VALLEY
Mercury Goes to 25 Below Zero
Backbone of Winter
Spell Now Broken

Temperatures as low as 25 degrees
below zero marked the storm and
cold snap which descended upon
Bozeman, as it did upon the north
ern and eastern sections of the state
last Saturday afternoon and evening
By Wednesday, however, the back
bone of the weather spell was broken,
and on Thursday the mercury had
risen to around 20 above.
The storm, while severe, did not
last long in this vicinity. The sue
ceeding three days were marked by
successfully lower temperatures, all
below zero, until the bottom Of Is
below was reached at 6 o'clock Tues
day morning. From then on the
temperature rose, jumping SO de-
grees on Tuesday night and Wednes-
day.
The cold snap was the most Sc
we're experienced in the Gallatin since
1924, when nine days Of extreme
sub-zero temperatures were recorded
Damage In Bozeman was confined tC
a few frozen water pipes. No re.
port Of undue suffering by stock OF

WATSON BOYLE IS
VICTIM OF STORM
Frozen to Death While En-

Cabin Near Stemple

Watson Boyle, journalist and poll
tician, who had been a resident of
Montana since the early nineties, was
frozen to death last Saturday after
noon three miles north of Stemple, in
Lewis and Clark county, while en-
deavOring to reach the mountain cab
in of William Howe, where he ex-
pected to spend the winter. Nj.
Boyle was formerly a resident of
BOzeman, but had lived in Helena
since 1911.
A blizzard was raging when Mr..
Boyle met Mr.. Howe at Stemple and
prepared to accompany him on skis
to the cabin. Boyle raj lightly clad
and Mr.. Howe warned him not to at
tempt the trip, but he was insistent
and a start was made. The tempera-
ture was around 80 degrees below
zero and a high wind was blowing,
At a point three miles up the noun
tain Mr.. Boyle succumbed to exhaus-
ton. Howe, who is % years Of age
was unable to carry him, and after
placing Boyle in the shelter Of q
clump of pine trees, travelled seven
miles to the nearest ranch for help

had expired and a little later, to save

were severely frostbitten, the for
