Based largely on study of changes
in representative flocks of sheep on
238 ranches in As counties and cover
ing more than 100000 head of sheep
and lambs, the state sheep population
an Jan. 1, 1929 is estimated to have
increased II per cent during the past
year. The revised estimate of num-
bers on aJnuary /, 1928 was 1855, 900

761 900. Montana now has more
sheep than Wyoming and is exceeded
only by Texas and California.
The large 1923 lamb crop was fol
lowed by fall and early winter ship
ments that were only slightly above
those of 1927. There was also de-
crease in numbers of sheep and
lambs being fattened for later mar
ket on Jan. 1. Compared with hold

smaller percentage of aged ewes; q
slightly larger percentage of young
ewes and a gain in the percentage OF

vatican legal authorities worked for
more than 80 months to reach the
present agreement.
In the first part of the treaty, the
pope relinquishes his temporal powers
and Italy cancels the law guarantees
of 1870 which the vatican has always
believed were imposed upon it against
the pope's will. These provided for
the pope's residence after the fall of
the vatican's temporal power.
Second Part
The second part-or concordat-is
a convention between the state and
church, tending to regulate the re-
spective interests of the two in re-

The concordat requires ratification
by the legislature, and it was there.

treaty of peace and Cancellation which

LEADING PARSONAGE

Was Enlisted Man in Marine Corps
During World War.

Detroit, Feb. 8.-Edwin DENLY, Sec
rotary of the navy in Hardlng's cab
met and leading figure In the senate
Teapot dome investigation, died sud-
IDENTIFY Friday from heart disease.
He apparently had died In sleep,
examining physicians said. After a
consultation, DR.. A. G. jennings said
that DENLY was found dead ii his beo
about o'clock and presumably had
been dead about two hours.
Mrs. DENLY said he had retired
Thursday night apparently In the
best of health and That he neverN had
spoken of any symptoms OF angina
pectoris, which doctors diagnosed as
the cause of death.
The former navy head had resigned
from the cabinet because OF his al
legged failure to block the disposition
of the Teapot Dome and Elk Hills
naval oil reserves to Harry F. Sin
clair and E. l.. Doheny.
AT the senate investigation of the
leases it was charged DENLY was in.
competent and signed the documents
laid before him by Albert B. Fall
then secretary of the interior, without
realizing their real significance.
Resignation Demanded
DENLY was not accused of having
any illegal part in the oil leases but
was regarded by the Investigators a!
an innocent tool of those who directed
the deals. The senate, however
adopted a resolution demanding his
resignation and that of Attorney
General Harry M. Daugherty.
Mr.. Coolidge, who was president a
the time of the investigation, refused
to recognize the resolution officially
holding that the senate was withou
power to make such a demand.
DENLY remained in the cabinet TO-
a few weeks and then presented hi
resignation. He receivd a letter O
commentator from the president.
The former naval secretary hat
lade a spectacular rise to prominenc
in public office. Although he ha,
served as representative from Mich
gan in the 59th, Goth and 61st con
crosses, he enlisted as a private i

PENDANTS liberty on bail, Judge Butler
ruled that they be taken to the coun-

Special Prosecutor William j. Clark,

there be no bail set after the Gus
