SENATOR 7. ]. WALSH.
SPOKE TO A LARGE
CROWD FRIDAY NIGHT.

Senator T. J. Walsh spoke to large
crowd at the Workers Hall last Fri
day night. The Senator was up to
form in his usual impressive manner.
He first reviewed the state candi-
dates but said that he was in the city
particularly in the interest of Harry
B. MitchelPs candidacy. He assailed
the Republican party and its protec-
tive tariff policy and urged the cleo
ton of a Democratic congressman
with view of reducing the tariff. He
discussed the tariff on wool and farm
products and advanced the Democratic
theory of the tariff. He also discussed
the farm legislation but did not blame
the failure of the passage of farm leg
lation on the Republican party,
rather he blamed the high tariff for
the farmers condition.
He spoke on Congressman Leavitt's
record and said that among other
things Leavitt was always on the job
and diligent worker, stating that
Leavitt had passed number of bills.
Senator Walsh, however, minimized
their Importance.
In discussing the Red Lodge-Cooke
City road project he declared that all
of the Montana delegation had done
everything in their power, under the
circumstances, for the passage of the
bill and that Mr.. Leavitt had perform
ed effective work, though the bill
failed in the House. He did not blame
Mr.. Leavitt but rather blamed the adj
ministration, saying that Mr.. Leavitt
had done all he could. Mr.. Walsh said
while the bill failed in the House we
passed it in the Senate but | want to
say that if it had not been for your
representative, Mr.. Shelley, we would
not have gotten very far"
The Democrats had advertised that
Mr.. Walsh would tell the facts about
the Cooke City road and large crowd
had assembled to hear him. The por-
ton of. the talk regarding the Cooke
City road was listened to very attent-
lively. Senator Walsh related the story
of the bills progress in Congress,
following the bill in it's early stages
up until the time it was defeated in
the House. His report was exactly as
had been published in the News and
had been reported to the Beartooth
Boosters Club according to those who
heard Senator Walsh. The Senator
was very fair in his explanation of the
work performed by Congressman
Leavitt and those interested in the
passage of the bill in Washington, d.
G.. Comments after the meeting were
to the effect that the Senator had
made many friends for himself, won
through the fair way in which he
handled the subject of the Cooke City
road.
Senator Walsh paid high tribute
to Secretary Melons wonderful bust
ness ability, but said that though he
did not always agree with him on pol
icy no one doubted his business effic-
iency. The Senator discussed the New
bury case at length. In discussing
Federal Aid for roads the Senator
said that Montana taxpayers were
paying one million two hundred thous
end dollars to build roads in other
states and will continue to do so unless
Montana makes provisions to match
this money.

The Haunted Ruins

In the western outskirts of Silesia
there stands the charred and dilapi-
dated ruins of what was once the lead
ing industrial establishment of that
little city. A mass of tumble down
stone walls, it is today, grim and for
bidding, with empty broken window
frames and fallen spires and gaunt
black chimneys whence once the smoke
of industry belched but which today
are the humble homes of the bat and
the owl. The furnace is silent and I'M
tended now, half driven nails are rust
ed in huge frames and where yester-
day all was life and hustle, today looks
like the ruins of Babylon.
In the daytime nothing uncanny or
unusual is to be observed there but at
night ghostly phosphoric lights may
be seen Pickering about the old place
and everyone in the neighborhood
knows that it is haunted. That there
is a ghost there; that it is place to
be avoided no one doubts as several
reputable citizens whose verasity is
unquestioned have seen a spectre there
at different times during recent years.
Last Friday evening two highly re-
spected residents of Silesia were tax
ing stroll, and being deeply engross-
ed in conversation at the time they I'M
Willingly allowed their footsteps to
stray past the old ruin. Ye gods!
what blood curdling sight they be-
held. Theirs was the same awesome
story that so many another has told
before them. 1t was of seeing a grew
some, CHASTITY spectre-the auralit
skeleton of tall man standing within
the ruins. The hideous phantom

Real Music

Real Music
The Montana State Symphony Or
chestra gave a concert here last
Thursday. 1t was we'll attended as it
should have been and for real enjoy
ment it is doubtful if it has ever been
excelled in this city.
Prof. Joseph Adam is recognized
MASTER, he is supported by cast
representing Montana's best musi-
clans and they render real music. They
will be here again next season and
their audience will be measured only
by the capacity of the hall in which
their concert will be held.
We need the rendition of more class
ical music in this city and in this
state as it is the only kind of music
worth while.
Music is the wine of the soul. 1t is
the harmonious voice of creation; an
echo of the invisible world. 1t awakens
a world of joys and soothes world of
sorrows. 1t is prophecy of what life
is to be; the rainbow of promise trans
lated out Of seeing into hearing.
think that in the morning of etern-
ity, when the stars were young, the
Spirit Of Music with her first grand
oratorio burst upon the ear of raptur-
ed Diety and thrilled the wondering
angels. The trembling stars heard it
and flashed their joys from every
flaming center. The wheeling orbs
that course the crystal paths of space
heard it and were vibrant with the
strain. All heaven shouted. Ten
thousand times ten thousand angel
voices caught up the song, and ever
since, through all the golden cycles,
it's breathing, soothing, joyous melo-
dies, old as eternity yet ever new, have
floated on the air of heaven.
Butt wasn't jazz; it wasn't rag
time; it was real music if you know
what mean.

Takes Record Trout
From Famous Old
Waldo County Brook

These are the day when the fish sto-
ries are abroad in the land. Here is
one from Waldo county: The first of
this week Charles E. Gordon. a. stu
dent in Unity High school. found him
self among the lucky fishermen. He
was on the Half Moon stream in
Thorndike. This is a famous trout
brook of Waldo county. After an
hours fishing Charles was the proud
owner of three of the largest trout
ever taken from this famous old brook.
One was 10 inches long and weighed
nearly a pound, the second was IA
inches long and weighed one and three
quarters pounds, the third. which was
the prize fish, was II inches long and
weighed~two and one-auarter pounds.
The lucky schoolboy caught these fish
with an ordinary dollar pole. equipped
with a 35-cent reel, a 10-cent line, no
leaders, sinkers or spoon -Four large
earthwormS were the bait.
The largest trout was sent to Henry
e. Dunnack, State librarian, as a gift.
1t has been on exhibition at the Leslie
Young store. 1t is believed that this
two and one-quarter pound trout is the
largest brook trout ever taken from a
stream in Waldo county. Young Cor
don is the hero of all fishermen in his
part of the county. He is selling pho
tographs of his famous catch.

1.-THE incident Is closed as far as we
are concerned" declared DeForest H.
Perkins of Portland. Grand Dragon
Of the knights of the Ku Klux Khan.
Realm of Maine, last evening when
questioned about the recent decision
Of the special committee having the
arrangements for the proposed State
field day of the organization, to call
off the meeting because of the re-
fusal of Mayor Ernest L. Mclean
to permit a parade of the Klansmen
in the City of Augusta If the men,
bers wore either masks or hoods.
1T Is apparent that Mayor Nc
Lean does not desire that the Knights
of the Ku Klux Klan shall hold a
field day in Augusta and regardless
of our desires in this matter we do
not proceed without the approval OF
the duly constituted officers"
The State leader Of the Khan was
in conference with a committee of
prominent members who were
thoroughly in touch with the situa-
ton and after hearing their report he
issued the above statement. He was
suffering from the effects of an auto
mobile accident earlier in the day in
which he received a severe cut on
the right arm, four ligaments being
severed, but he declared that he was
perfectly able to attend to necessary
business.
The plans for the field day as an
nounced by the committee called for
an attendance of from 5000 to TO-
900 Klansmen, a big parade through
the streets of Augusta, and exercises
at the State muster field at Camp
Keyes, with DR.. Hiram Evans of At
lanta, Ga, Imperial Wizard of the
order as the chief speaker.
A parade permit was granted tc
the order by Mayor Ernest Mclean
with the provision that neither hood
or masks were to be worn. Later
Rev. A. F. Leigh of Randolph. chair.
man of the committee on arrange
ments announced that the hoods
| would be worn although the faces
| would be uncovered. To this Mayor
Mclean in a public letter, replied
| that if either hoods or masks were
| worn it would be considered as a VIC
lation of the terms of the permit. A
committee meeting held on Tues
day night it was decided that the en-
tire program should be called off as
the parade was to be one of the bis
features, and a formal announcement
of that move was issued to the press
| over the signature of Chairman
Leigh. who declared it to be a denia
| of the rights of American citizens a:
there was no moral or legal reason
| for such drastic restrictions with re-
gard to the wearing of the hood an6
| mask of the order.
