ReXfOrd Water
Case Is Settled

On Monday County Attorney Her.
bert received the decision of the state
public service commission in the Rex
ford water rate matter The com
mission ruled that the rate charged,
$500 per month per fire hydrant, was
reasonable and that it should stand.
The ruling followed a hearing held at
Rexford July 81.
The commission further ordered
that A. E. Johnson, owner of the
water plant at Rexford, should inn
medlately make certain repairs, stop
leaks, etc, and report to the state
commission.
1t will be remembered that some
months ago the citizens of Rexford
filed complaint with the board of
county commissioners in regard te
rates charged and service given, the
board Of county commissioners being
ex offieio the board of directors OF
the Rexford fire district. After hear.
ing both sides the board of county
commissioners ruled that the fire hv
drant charge per month should be 500
the charge previously having beer
$500. At that time the Rexford cit
izens and Johnson both agreed to ths
new rate. Later the Rexford peopl.
filed a complaint with the publ,
service commission and asked hear
ing.
The commissions action sustains
in effect, the action of the count,
commissioners, but further orders tn,
repairs, which the county commission
ers had no power to do.

Two Fined For Leaving
Camp Fires Burning

Two Washington citizens, C. w.
Hughes and E. w. Smith, vacationinx
last week with their families on the
Yaak, were arrested Saturday and
brought to town by Forest Ranger
G. d. Sousley, charged with having
left camp fires burning. Smith was
also charged with having in his pos
session too many small fish, prohibited
by law. The men were tried before
Justice of the Peace ]. w. Haigler.
Hughes was fined $50 and costs
amounting to $62.25, while Smith was
convicted of the two charges and fined
$50 and S25 and costs, totaling $88.75.
The men paid their fines and de-
parted Sunday, much peeved, remark
ing that they were going to get out
Of the state just as soon as they
could. The common remark is that
the sooner they and their kind leave
the state the better, as anyone who
will carelessly leave campfire burn
ing is not wanted anywhere at thu
present time.

Libby Citizens Honored.

Two Libby citizens were signally
honored last week at the grand lodge
sessions of the Masonic and Eastern
Star lodges, held in Ereat Falls. M. D.
Rowland was honored by election to
the office of junior grand warden of
the Masonic order and Mrs. Rowland
to the office of associate grand con-
ductress of the Eastern Star. When
1t is considered that there were large
numbers Of delegates present in both
lodges and many from places much
larger than Libby, with the usual
large number aspiring to the honor,
it becomes more apparent how pleas
ing the honor is that has been be-
slowed upon these two Libby resi-
dents. If Mr.. and Mrs. Rowland pro-
xress in office in the usual order,
which they undoubtedly will, they will
be serving in the highest offices Of the
two organizations at the same time.
They returned to Libby Monday from
Great Falls.

houses on the cost of a tram COM
pletely installed and ready to operate
Some of these houses install trans

down a certain tonnage every "a
hours. They also put men on them
to operate until purchaser is satisfied
that the tram will live up to the guar

keep it going efficiently.
Some people become scared at the
mention of the tramming method Of
moving ore, but it seems to be quite
simple when you hear one of these
experts talk about it, and in addition
it is not so expensive a proposition
as one would think. From figures sub
mitted one can figure that the cost
Of a one-half ton bucket tram will
run at around $3.50 per foot.

BACTERIOLOGIST DISCUSSES
HEALTH MATTERS IN LIBBY

At q meeting of Libby citizens Ibid
last Thursday evening, DR.. Marsh Of
Helena, bacteriologist of the state
livestock and sanitary board. dis
cussed the pasteurization of milk. He
told the reasons for it, said it killed
all disease germs in the milk and
made much safer product. After !
short discussion of the matter DIR.
Marsh requested that questions be
asked and number of questions were
propounded by the audience and an
swered by the doctor. 1t was brought
out that pasteurization does not in
Jure the food value of the milk ex-
cept IN one minor respect. 1t was also
said that while pasteurization does
SOMETHING'S lessen the amount az
cream that will gather. it does not
destroy the cream but that the same
amount of cream remains in the milk.
DR.. Marsh said that if it were pos
slble to control the situation, the stato
undoubtedly would require the past
eurization of all milk sold. He further
said that an ideal condition existed
where the milk is delivered to CEN
tral plant and pasteurized, as in Lib
by. The meeting was presided over by
DIR. J. M. Cairns, who introduced the
speaker.

Golden West Calls
For Bids on Road

The Golden West Mining Company
this week publishes call for bids
for the construction of a road from
the terminus of the present road at
the Mother Lode cabin--known to
some people as the Beager cabin--to
a point up the creek about mile to
it's mill site. In its call the company
states that work must start as soon
as the fire hazard will permit, which
from present weather Indications and
the time of the year should be in
a very short time. This is not hard
piece of road to build, the terrain Of
the country offering no very great
obstacle, and the work should go for
ward with dispatch and be completed
in time to let the company get started
with it's trans and power project TINS
fall. 1t is impossible to go ahead with
any Of the proposed construction work
until this bit Of road is made.
The mill site chosen is directly be-
tween the two big veins of ore; on
the creek with plenty of water power
available and in a position where the
danger from snow slides will be slight.
On the one side Green mountain is al
most completely timbered and on the
other side the hill is not steep enough
to make much danger. In addition the
creek bottom land is timbered with
fine stand Of white pine and some
harder woods which will furnish suffi-
cient timbers for construction OF the
building and cabins for the housing
of the men.
The mine laborers will be housed
mostly at the mine proper On the
north side, or Annie wien, they al
ready have two cabins and can accom-
modate about eight men there at the
present time. Supplies will be taken
I'D in the tram buckets and communi-
cation will be had by telephone from
the mill.
For outlet with the world, the
workers at the Annie will have to use
the trail of nearly two miles to come
down to the main road or else come
directly down the steep. hill to the
road On the Green mountain side the
mine workings will he 1000 feet above
the mill, but trail will also be con-
structed along the hill at an easy
grade to come out farther down the
creek for the convenience of the work
era.
Tram statesmen have been in thr
city during the past. week and esti-
mates are being prepared by different

NclS Timber At
Citadel Is Burned

The forest fire that had been rag
Ing Tor some time in the Columbia
Fails district reached the timber of
the J. Neils Lumber company at Git
adel last Wednesday and that night
burned over the company's entire hold
ings there and destroyed the logging
camp and all equipment. The fire
burned about 200,00O,O00 feet of
standing timber, much of it being
white pine, with large number Of
cedar poles. The company's holdings
there comprised about $4,000 acres
and this was all burned over except
about half section. Some of this
acreage had been logged.
In addition to the damage to the
standing timber, the camp and equip
ment was burned. The large gas-eIec
trio shovel was burned, and loco
motive, switched into comparative-
ly open space, had all the woodwork
burned off. All bridges on the ocom-
pany's railroad were burned except
high one near Citadel
1t will be possible to salvage much
Of the burned timber-whateve can
be taken out before hot weather of
next year. 1t is said that by about
June of next year the burned timber
will begin to turn blue, due to the ac-
ton of the sap. Men are now going
over the tract determining the exact
amount of damage done and laying
plans for a new camp.
The Neils logging crews had been
fighting the fire and Wednesday eve-
ming thought they had gotten the
best of it. They had completed a
trench along an old road between the
fire and the camp and thought it
would be safe to go to camp and eat
supper as the wind was blowing the
fire directly away from camp. Just
as they were about to sit down to
supper the wind suddenly changed and
brought the fire down over them. The
men had time only to seize blanket
rolls and pile onto train load Of
poles standing at the camp, the train
then pulling out. In fact, the fire
was SO close and was coming so rapid
ly that some Of the men were in such
hurry they did not wait for the
train but started out on foot.
Miles Of valuable timber have been
burned in that district and the fire
has finally got into Glacier park. 1t
is still raging although Forest Super
visor Jefferson of Libby states that the
fight against it is becoming better or
ganized. The first of the week C. b.
Swim. deputy supervisor of the Gal
latin forest, j. B. Yule. assistant dis
trict engineer, and III. G. Spencer, for
est ranger from Colorado, were trans
ferred from Libby to the Glacier
front. They were driven over by f. w.
