STOLEN HORSES USED
TO FEED FARMERS HOGS

STANFORD. - When Cornelius
FRESHMAN, a rancher living in the
northwestern part of Dawson
county, was arraigned in district
court at Glendive before Judge
Leiper, charged with illegal killing
brought out. He pleaded guilty tc
the charge and was sentenced tc
from two to four years.
FRESHMAN had been farming in
eastern Montana for the last Is
years, and, according to his story
the last few years have held many
hardships for him with their re-
peated crop failures.
He possessed, he said, 20 or 80
hogs, and range horses persisted
in breaking into a small patch of
feed and pasture he maintained
for them, and at first, in order to
protect his crops and pasture
against the onslaught of the range
horses he chased them away and
later conceived the idea Of kill
ing them and feeding them to the
hogs.
He started that during the last
there years, he, with the aid of
his sons, had gone out on the pub
lie range and driven into his cor
rails horses running at large. He
would keep on hand several horses.
When in need Of hog feed, he
would drive one of the horses into
his barn where the older son would
shoot the horse through the head
with a .32 ca1iber rifle. The horses
were driven into the barn so that
the discharging of the rifle would
attract the least attention and
make the least noise. The de-
PENDANT compelled his son to do
the shooting because, he said, his
son was a better shot and had a
steadier aim. After killing the
animal, they skinned it and fed it
to the hogs, and later burned the
carcass. 1t is estimated that over
three hundred range horses have
been killed by the defendant in
the last three years.
The two boys stated that they
feared their fathers strength and
influence and were coerced by him
to aid in the commission of the
crime and were afraid, by reason
of threats which their father had
made to them, to tell any of the
or the authorities. Two
months, ago, the boys, unable to
tolerate the actions of their father
and the part that they e play
ing in the commission Of the crime,
left their home and went to Glen
dive and related their story to
County Attorney Raymond Hide
brand.

A letter from VIM. G. Ferguson

A letter from VIM. G. Ferguson
Queen Contest manager, says:
"The Montana State Fair plans
to feature again this year the
Queen of Montana Contest with
which you are probably familiar.
For the past four years the State
Fair management has brought in
to Helena during fair week repre-
sentatives from the counties of
the state. They by their ballots
have chosen from their number
one to bear the title of Queen
of Montana" and to be officially
crowned as such by the Governor
of the state.
"The popularity of this contest
has in no way diminished. The
number of counties participating
has been steadily on the increase.
Those participating have found
that the representatives they send
to Helena have a wonderful time
and that they are well repaid for
their efforts. Every minute of the
time here is filled with entertain
ment.
"All contestants shall be be-
tween the ages of IS and 26 years
and shall have been bona fide resi-
dents of the county in which this
contest is being conducted for at
least a year prior to nomination"

presence as in times past.
"THERE is a friend that stick
eth closer than a brother"
David and Jonathan typify the
ideal friendship illustrating the
Golden Text of this lesson, from
Proverbs 1924.
Such stories express an ideal
to which something fine in human
life responds. There is that about
friendship which is spontaneously
real and simply honest which
makes friendship a holy and
beautiful thing.
Family Ties
We have no choice in blood re-
lationship. Wide Emergencies of
character exist within a family;
tastes and ideals of brother and
sister often are vastly different.
The proverb that blood is thicker
than water" suggests the strength
of the bond of kinShip in spite of
these differences. Responsibility
toward our own kin is natural,
even in cases where spontaneous
and genuine affection is lacking.
We cannot choose u relatives
but our selection of friends is a
test of character. A force that is
stronger than almost anything
else in the universe results where
the approaches of friendship are
mutual. A true and thorough
going friendship cannot be de-
stroyed.
David and Jonathan illustrate a
characteristic of friendship that
1t Is often manifest under strange
circumstances and transcends sit
uations of difficulty. The fact that
Dayid's best friend was a son OF !
