The Street
BY Edgar A. Guest

Oh who can tell what feet shall fare the roadway with the
morning,
What grief shall turn the corner there without a word of
warning,
What burden weary age shall bear, what danger youth be
scorning?
For up and down the road they tramp the heeung joys and
sorrows,
Which never find a resting camp. It's only man who
The oil from pleasures shining lamp against his dark to-
morrows
Death called last week across the way. Nearby there was a
wedding.
This little street wherein we stay, and all that man is dread
ing.
Whatever be the street or lane it knows the worlds full
story
OF happiness and cruel pain, birth, marriage, old age hoary,
And all that years of life contain from failure up to glory.

SHERIDAN TOWN
SICK OF CANGISNI
BETTER ELEMENT IN PLENTY.
WOOD WANT TOWN CLEAN;
MEETING CALLED
~(Plentywood Herald


The moral conditions existing
in this community prompted the
mayor of Plentywood, 3. E. Be
lanski to call a special meeting of
the town council to meet with the
citizens of the town for the pur-
pose of devising ways and means
of enforcing the law and Kidding
the town of the lawless element
that seems to have hibernated
here. The special meeting was
called for Thursday evening this
week which was attended by a
large number of citizens, about
100 being present, and the citi-
zens having as their spokesman
Jack Bennett, j. G. Wagner and L.
]. Onstad. Mr.. Bennett informed
the mayor and the town council
of the purpose of the meeting and
requested that Mr.. Wagner follow
him, who told of the conditions ex-
listing within and without the town
limits and what could be done to
enforce law and establish order
if the officials had the public with
them in such an undertaking and
upon a call to rise of all who were
in favor of law enforcement and
willing to assist the officers, all
ros but two.
Mr.. Onstad followed stating that
the citizens are not here to criti-
else or to dictate to the mayor or
council what they shall do or not
do but are appearing in a spirit
of friendliness offering such as
~sistance as they can give, that in
order to better things as they now
exist, there must be two things
necessary, the law and public
opinion for the enforcement of
such law. To show what the law
was, he read the statutes relating
to gambling, vagrancy and pros
titution, showing the duties of the
officers and that the city has
jurisdiction 8 miles outside the
city limits and calling the atten-
ton of the council to the fact
that public opinion and the desire
of the people of Plentywood that
these laws are enforced, also call
ing attention to the fact that the
city has ordinances for the abate-
ment of blindpigs and the right to
close such places as a nuisance.

STOCKNEN'S RATES TO
INTERNATIONAL Snow

On November goth the Great
Northern will make a rate of one
faro for the round trip to Chicago
from all stations in Montana, as
far west as K~alispell, on account
Of the international Live Stock
Exnosition. The tickets will be
good on regular trains both gong
and returning. Return trip Will
he limited to Dectmber 9th.
For several years past the Great
Northern had made special low
rates for this Exposition. Each
wear several hundred farmers
have taken advantage of this OPP
portunitv to visit Chicago and see
Americas finest animals assem-
bled from every state in the Union
in the international Live Stock
EXPOSITION. They have gained
knowledge of livestock and inspir-
alton for the development of the
livestock raising resources OF their
farms. The interest has grown so
much and there is so much of ben
eft to farmers that this year the
rate is further reduced.
Sufficient additional equipment
will be added to regular trains to
accommodate all who wish to take
advantage Of these low rates and
if necessary, or where desired and
a large enough number of people
wish to go, special cars can be Sc
cured.
The time limits on the tickets
will cover the entire week of the
Exposition which runs from Nov
ember 28th to December Bird.

SPUD CONTEST ENDS
ON NOVEMBER FIRST

A few new entries in the Herald
potato contest have been received
this week. R. C. Durham of the
Southside brought in a fine speci-
men of Early Ohio potato; J. B.
Switzer brought in samples of
Bugless and Early Ohio potatoes
raised on his farm on the South
side by Geo. feathers. J. E. Pipal
and A. w. Mendenhall of the
Southside brought in interesting
samples of "hill-in-one" Early Ohio
potatoes that tip the scales at 4
lbs 2 OF and 8 lb. II oz. respect
lively.
The display of big potatoes is
now in the window of the Norby
Sweet Shop and so far includes
twenty-four giant tubers, the com
bined weight of which totals 81
pounds and Z ounces. It is inter-
esting to speculate what these
potatoes would have been worth
on the market last spring when
old potatoes were selling for from
six to eight cents. A housewife
would have said to her grocer:
"Give me a good potato, a 25 cent
n will do" A three pound po-
tato would have brought from 20
to 25 cents and some of the big
gest that are on display would
have been worth over 80 cents.

potatoes entered in the contest,
if it weighs three pounds or more
is worth at least a half year

Indy RETURNS
FROM HIS TOUR
TELLS REPORTERS HE HAS
WON RIGHT TO DROP FROM
PUBLIC VIEW

MITCHELL FIELD, N. Y, Oct.
23.-Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
swung down out of the air here
Sunday, completing a 22,35O-mile
tour of the country in his Spirit of
st. Louis, just one minute ahead
Of his scheduled time.
He greeted questions as to his
future plans with a smile and a
shake of the head.
Il haven't any, he said, and
his expression indicated his pleas
ure at once more being a free
agent, with no fixed schedule driv-
ing him on daily.
Where can we see you tomor-
row." a reporter asked him.
"Why, I don't believe that's go
ing to be necessary" he replied.
Il feel that I have o. the right
to drop out of the public view
for a while"
A lowering sky failed to keep
away a crowd of about 1000 adj
mires who wished to view Lind
bergh's arrival. Long before 2
p. M, the hour set for his appear
ance from Philadelphia, the field
was trimmed with spectators.
Plane Improves
81 never felt better in nv life"
he said, when there was a lull.
banquet food didn't seem to do
me any harm. The flight was in
on way exhausting; hard work for
a few times, but never exhausting.
1.-THE Spirit Of St. Louis is in
fine shape. It gives more revolu-
tions a minute than when it was
new. But this looks like a good
time to do it, so I'm going to have
it completely overhauled. That's
never been done since it was built
you know, and it's been almost
$50 hours in the air. No, it isn't
destined for a museum yet; event
ually, but not now"
what are you going to do
next?" a half dozen reporters
asked.
"I have no plans" he sad. 81
am going to rest a few days and
then make a short visit to Mich
igan, flying, but not in the Spirit.
After that I frankly don't know
but St. Louis will be my present
headquarters.
II am going to confer with
Harry Guggenheim, president of
the Daniel Guggenheim fund for
the promotion of aeronautics,
which sponsored my tour, and a
report will be made on my &C
complishments."
He calculated absolutely not"
when told there had been rumors
that he might enter politics, pos
sibly Il for congress.
"You can make that as definite
as you like" he said. 81 have no
intention Of doing that. No, nor
of taking any position with the
department of commerce or other
government agency, either. When
I know myself what I'm going to
do, I'll announce it."
Beyond saying that the tour
proved the reliability of modern
equipment, Lindbergh would not
comment on the results of his trip.

Markets Attract
People were noted who came
to the Carnival from greater dis

liar occasion, attracted by the low
prices on merchandise, the COM
paratively high prices paid for
wheat, with good roads and fine
weather as added inducements.
On Main street cars parked
four broad, side street curbings-
lined with motor vehicles. Crowds
were such as one sees on circus

or visiting with their neighbors
as they wait their turn at the
counter. Money being spent with
abandon that suggests the week
before Christmas. Bargains ever

Great are the ways of diplom-
acy, and devious are the ways to
conform to the amenities. Take
for instance, the tree planting at
the Pan American Union.
Frequently it becomes desirable
to commemorate an occasion or an
event with a ceremony or form
ality. Visiting delegates from a
few or all of the Latin American
countries are present for one
cause or another and the event
must be properly celebrated. An
out-of-door affair is desired. What
more simple than a tree planting
on the beautiful grounds of the
Union.
But the grounds are already
shaded, and trees of every des-
cription, running the gamut from
those native to this country and
those accustomed to the balmier
chimes of the South American
nations, grow in profusion every
where. There is not, in fact,
room for another tree.
Here is where diplomacy steps
in. The representatives from the
countries to the South of us and
the high officials of this govern
ment wish to plant a tree, jointly
and together, and plant a tree they
shall.
Now the gardener at the Pan
American Union is a man wise
beyond his calling and position.
He can be relied upon. The mat
ter is impaired to him. A tree
must be planted in a spot where
there is not room for another
shrub.
So-o-e. We will replant a tree
that already is growing on the
grounds. Thus, early the next
morning this same gardener can
seen surreptitiously approach
ng n of the young oaks that is
growing tall and straight in a

CL0SE-UPS IN THE
NATIONS CAPITAL
lRy Stephen James,

Confronting Congress at its
next session is the question OF
choosing from all the momentous
events of the last eighty years
the two outstanding occasions
that shall be depicted in the un.
occupied space of the historical
fri6ze in the rotunda of the Capt.
tol building.
An appropriation Of $4,000 is
expected to be made at the com
ing session in December to conf
plete the task that has gone un-
finished since 1888. Senator ST
neon Fess, of Ohio, chairman OF
the joint committee on library.
has named Senator Howell, OF
Nebraska, and Representative Gil
bert, of Kentucky, a committee to
recommend the two events for
which space remains on the cir
Gle.
The unfinished frieze is only 26
feet in length. When it is recall
ed that the last event shown by
the artist was the discovery OF
gold in California in 1848 the mo
mentous task that confronts Sen
ator Howell and Representative
Gilbert becomes Immediately ap-
parent.
Three wars, the Civil War, the
Spanish-American War and the
World War, have occurred since
then. The strides in Industrial
and scientific achievement since
that date have been momentous.
The airplane has grown from a
gaudy dream to a practical real
ity. The automobile has made it
self felt as no other factor in our
civilization. The railroad has
reached it's highest development,
and the nation has dug the Pan
anna Canal between the American
Continents. Lincoln has signed
the emancipation proclamation,
Wilson has written his fourteen
points, and Roosevelt has ridden
battle with his Rough Riders,
since the nation drove west for
gold.
Probably the committee will
choose one scene of peace-time
endeavor and another of our mar
tial conflicts, but it's decision will
not be announced until the new
session, if then.
At any rate it seems probable
that visitors soon, comparatively,
may e the unfinished frieze com
pleted, but what events will be
immortalized in the oil and paints
there is no one at the moment
who can say.

ENLIVEN WEEK

Several accidents have marked
the week just past. Last Friday
afternoon, when Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Redstone were coming to
Wolf Point from their home near
Oswego a car attempted to pass
them on the grade about three
miles west of Wolf Point, and in
so doing ran into the ditch. Mr..
Redstone says that he was driving
at a speed of about 20 miles an
hour, and that the other car came
along at a very high rate of
speed, When Redstone heard
their horn he started to turn out
to the right, but looking back it
seemed as if the car attempted
to pass him on the right, then
turned sharply to the left, going
into the ditch. The second car
was driven by Dave Anderson,
who with Mrs. Anderson was
bringing a sick child to Wolf Point
to receive medical attention.
When Mr.. Anderson put on the
brakes as the car went into the
ditch. Mrs. Anderson was thrown
against the framework of the car,
sustaining severe decorations about
the head end face. Mr.. Redstone
brought the Andersons on to Wolf
Point.
The story told by Mr.. Anderson
is that the Redstone a crowded
him off the grade. It is under
stood that loose gravel at the
place was a contributing cause to
the accident.
%Siljenberg Tips Car
Sunday evening when Mr.. and
Mrs. Hans Siljenberg and baby
were on their way from Wolf
Point to their home in the Ben
rud community, riding in a truck
loaded with household furniture,
they ran into the ditch just be-
yond where the Benrud road turns
off the Main highway and the
truck turned over 1t is under
stood that Mrs. Silienberg was
badly shaken up and bruised.
Accident on Grade
Sunday afternoon, a young man,
whose home is at Rochester,
Mimi, just after rounding a cor
per eight miles this side of Poplar,
driving at a high rate of speed,
seemed to lose control Of his a
and it shot off the grade. The
driver when through the top and
was unconscious when picked up
shortly after the accident. Accord
ing to reports from Poplar Thurs
day he had not regained con
seriousness. The car was found
on it's side, with the left
front wheel broken from the hub
and the left hind tire off. 1t is
alleged that some Canadian whis-
key was found in the car.
According to the story told by
the boys father, who came from
Rochester, MINI. where he is en-
in the laboratory at the
Mayo clinic, the boy was return
ing from Calgary, where he had
taken his brother and sister. The
young mans name is not known
