CARBON COUNTY
~.
COURT UPHELD
rrss,~
! IN TWO ACTIONS
Supreme Tribunal Affirms
Judgment In Two Cases
Over Property

On Tuesday Montana's supreme
court affirmed the decision of The
Carbon county district court in favor
of Sadie May Puutio, Steve Roman
and Sheriff John Albert. Liberty
Roman appealed from the judgment
of the district court.
In 1926 Sadie May Puutio secured
a Judgment of S6,289.10 against Steve
Roman on an action for malicious
prosecution. The sheriff levied on lots
in Red Lodge to collect the judgment
One of these lots is occupied by the
picture house or theatre. Mrs. Roman
began action to release the property
from attachment, claiming it under
a deed from her husband The district
court for Carbon county held against
her, ruling that there was no consi-
Iteration shown for the transfer of
the property from Roman to his wife
and that the property actually be-
longed to Roman and was subject to
the attachment Mrs. Roman appealed.
Judgment of the Carbon county
court was also affirmed in the case
of Richard and Tenney P. DeAtley
versus Katherine and j. E. Libby, APP
pellants and Estelle STREET and her
husband.
J. E. Libby and his wife in 1926
moved to a farm in Carbon county
owned by Mrs. Libby's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Richard DeAtley. The Lib
bys were to be given a deed to the
property and in return were to oper-
ate it, make the mortgage payments,
permit the DeAtleys to occupy one
set Of dwellings, furnish them with
food, clothing and medical care and
treat them with respect and devotion
during the remainder of their lives.
All apparently went we'll until the
summer Of 1925, when discord arose
which resulted in the removal of the
Libbys to Butte, after they had made
arrangements with the store to sup
ply the DeAtleys. The DeAtleys then
brought action to cancel the deed Civ
en- the Libbys and secured judgment
in the district court from Carbon
county from which the Libbys ap-
pealed.
Attorneys John G. Skinner Of Red
Lodge and Phil Sanarsey of Billings
represented the plaintiffs, and G. G.
Rowan of Red Lodge and F. F. Hanes
of Forsyth, the defendants.

ship and financial gain we have been
successful. This success, however has
not been of spontaneous growth, but
the result of labor, cooperation and
loyalty. Our prosperity is bound to
endure because our purposes are i'm
bedded in human hearts as we have
listened and answered the urgent call
OF humanity. We are not only great
Iratefnal association in a matter of
membership alone, but our stockhold-

ton, ASPIRATION and desires that are
leading men onward in the develop
ment of the scheme of human broth

Let Us not forget, however. that
auf fraternal success rests not alone
upon the sentiment, because the fin
ancfal factor is necessary to carry
on the work Of our fraternity. We are
too, a great financial institution be-
cause through proper supervision and
regulation we are safe guarding the
funds OF our aeries so to naeal at all
times the redemption of our promises
and the payment Of our maternal
Obligations.
Success, however, when attained
IS oftimes as hard to hold as to gain.
Our fraternity in its present condi-
ton through expansion has taken up
on itself higher and greater respon-
sibility, calling for the best service
that we are able to command. Our
Fraternity has Just commenced to
live and like a business corporation,
must put in its operations the same
ability and judicial determination as
IS necessary to make it a success.

DISCOVER RODENT
INCISER TOOTH IN
EAGLE COAL Mine
Lobdell Uncovers Specimen
Which viii be Sent to
Carnegie Museum

DR.. j. c. F. Siegfriedt reports the
discovery of another important speci-
men from the fossil bed in the Eagle
coal mine at Bearcreek. The tooth
was found by James Lobdell, super
intendent of the Eagle Coal Mine, last
Thursday. The specimen is rodent
inciser tooth, similar to the present
day beaver The fossil is the enameled
portion of large inciser, measuring
four inches long, one inch broad and
five-eighths of an inch thick. The
root portion of the tooth was not
found. Generally the root of such a
tooth is as long as the enameled por-
ton, so the probable total length of
the whole tooth would be about eight
inches.
Judging from the size of the pres
ent day beaver incisers, the mammal
that possessed the tooth found in the
mind would weigh in the neighborhood
OF $50 to 500 pounds. This discovery
is OF Importance, owing to the fact
that the records tell us that the man.
NAL remains in the Fort Union beds
are small in size and do not show ro-
dent or carnivorous characteristics.
DR.. Siegfriedt says, "both the
rodent and carnivora have been dis
covered in the Eagle Coal Mine and
no doubt many new specimens will be
uncovered in the near future" The
tooth specimen, found by Mr.. Lobdell,
will be sent to the Carnegie Museum
at Plttsburg for proper Interpretation
and comparison.

INDEPENDENTS In
BASKETBALL PLAN
ASTATE TOURNEY
Invitation Extended to All
Montana Amateurs For
Event at Butte

Montanas first all-state amateur
basketball tournament will be con-
Quoted at the Y. NJ. G. A. court, Feb
"a and rs, according to an announce
ment from the Butte 'Y" which is
introducing an attractive event.
In inviting Independent basketeers
from every city and hamlet in the
state, the "Y" anticipates keenest
competition with the appearance of
former high school and collegiate
stars and others who have developed
in the Independent game. While Butte
and Anaconda independent amateurs
have contended often on local courts,
it has been several years since any
of the Great Falls, Billings, Helena
or other teams have been seen in ac-
ton in anything that resembled state
tournament.
Requirements for eligibility are on
an amateur basis. Any person who is
making a livelihood from the game,
either by playing or coaching, is in
eligible. 1t is strictly professional
in that respect. Any persons with
amateur affiliations are ineligible.
The "Y" will assume all tournament
expenses including purchase of equip
ment and pay of officials. The promo
ton is under the direction of Ben
Hardin, physical director and we'll
known official whose experience in the
work assures efficient management.
Visiting teams must assume their
own travelling and living expenses.
The entrance fee is $500, the receipts
of the tournament to be used inpur-
chase of suitable awards or first, sec
ond and third places. The schedule
will be drawn up according to the
number Of entries. Entry blanks and
any information desired will be mail
ed from the Butte "Y" on request. All
entries must be in Butte by noon of
February 20.
The invitation is statewide. No
discrimination is made as to local or
sectional champions, up to date, as it
is the wish of the promoters to bring
the leading basketeers to Butte for
an elimination tournament for state
honors. The games will be played on
a court 35 by 70 feet, with bleachers
on both sides.
The Butte institution has had UNI
usual success in developing basketball
activities and anticipates large list
of entries. Persons interested are urg-
ed to write for entry blanks at once.

SCOTT LEAVITT
URGES PASSAGE
OF COTTON BILL

Passage of the Cotton bill to has
ten completion of highway projects
on public lands has been urged upon
the house committee on roads by Con
gresham Scott Leavitt. At the COM
mittee hearings on the bill, Mr.. Lea
witt pointed out that approximately
one-third of the 93,000,000 acres in
Montana is federally owned and there
fore not on the tax rolls, although 35
per cent Of the gross income from the
100000 acres of national forest
lands in the state is paid to counties
in which the forests are located.
The purpose of the Cotton bill is to
provide an additional $3,500,000 for
each of the next three years to expe-
date the federal governments high
way construction program on its own
forests, Indian reservations and other
unentered lands in Ia western states.
Mr.. Leavitt stated that approximate
ly 100000 of this would annually go
to Montana projects, in addition to
what has already been authorized.
Mr.. .Leavitt pointed out that under
the present arrangement it would
take the federal government
rs years to complete its system of
highways in national forests, and at
least 10 years to finish roads in these
areas to connect the interstate chain
being constructed comparatively by
the states and the federal govern
ment. This is the Federal highway
problem uppermost in Montana now,
he said, since the state system will /
undoubtedly be completed sooner. He
cited the Montana situation as typi-
cal Of the other Is public land states.

Saturday Carbon took a fast game
from Laurel making the second vic
tory Of the trip. The game was very
close all the way through but not close
enough to bother the Carbonites.
Thompson was high point man for the
locals and Calder for the Laurel team.
Due to the smallness of the gym fouls
were frequent on both sides. The
score at the end was Carbon 23 and
Laurel IS.

TERRORS OF
TRAVEL

"Why are the people of the
United States so stirred by the
threat to- the lives of American
citizens in Mexico. Nicaragua, or
China, that they must send mill
tary expeditions to these coun-
tries? 1T is the duty Of A gov
ernment,' the average citizen will
reply, to protect the lives and
property of its subjects. This
may be. true. But why should we
be so sensitive to minor and tenn
porary perils abroad, and neglect
tn constant danger of the citizen
who walks the streets1~o of Chicago
or New York, where the rate of
crime is greater than in almost
