was taught the history of the San Saba nisne
as it has thus far been recorded.
So, about 10 years after becoming interested.
he raised $500 and turned it over to trusted

and 'use the Money right" The Mexican seems
to have FUSED the money right" He came back
with copy of very long document purport-

He went up Silver Greek to a place that he
verified as being where Dixon and company
had made their location. There he set to work.
When he had cleaned out the shaft for 60 feet

filled with rock and dirt, mostly surface ma

rock in wheelborrows and hoisted them up the

to buy gocd pump. It proved to be made

would not do the work Thus alternating be-

BOHEMIAN HOSTELRY:
GIVE IT new name

Roger j. Fleming writes to the
Carbon County News, enclosing
check for subscription renewal,
that he contemplates ON making
many improvements on a recent
acquisition of the Bozeman hotel
and the hotel annex, which he and
his son, J. Roger Fleming of
Missoula purchased from the Sc
curity Building and Loan Assoei-
alton. Mr.. and Mrs. Roger J.
Fleming took immediate possession
and announced that the name of
the hostelrv would be changed to
Hotel Fleming. They expect TO
spend about $4,000 in remodeling,
renovating and refurnishing the
establishment during the coming
year. The younger Fleming and
wife will remain in Missoula to
operate the Palace hotel.
Mr.. Fleming came to Montana
AZ years ago and lived in Red
Lodge for many years. In 1927
they moved to Missoula.
Mr.. Fleming says one of the
first evidences of the improve
ments which they plan to make
will be a neon sign bearing the
new name of the establishment.
Other improvements will follow
as fast as they can be planned out
and put into execution Most of
the rooms will be redecorated;
new beds, springs and mattresses
will be purchased for all the rooms
which need them and much other
new furniture will be installed.

Boy Scouts


me lhfee Glasses of Scouts
After meeting certain require
ments boys are first enrolled as
Tenderfoot Scouts. Other achieve
ments must be accomplished before
they can be promoted to Second
Class Scouts, and still greater ac
Movements must be met before
they can advance into the First
Glass rank of Scouts. Then comes
an opportunity for as many as
possible of the ninety EIGHT Merit
Badges.
The Scout Motto
The motto of the Boy Scout is
BE PREPARED. This means that
the Scout is always in state of
readiness in mind and body to do
his duty.
The Scout Oath
Before he becomes a Scout a bow
must promise:
ON MY HONOR I WILL DO MY
BEST
l. To do my duty to God and my
country, and to obey the scout law;
2. To help other people at all
times;
3. To keep myself physically
strong, mentally awake, and NOR
ally straight.
When taking this Oath the
Scout will stand, holding up his
right hand, palm to the front,
thumb resting ON the nail of the
little finger and the other three
fingers uright and together, which
constitutes the Scout Sign.
Laws of Honor
There have always been certain
written and unwritten laws reg
the conduct and directing
the activities of men.
We have such unwritten laws
coming down from the past ages.
In Japan, the japanese have their
Bushido of laws of the old Samuri
warriors. During the Middle Ages
the chivalry and rules of the
Knights of King Arthur, the
Knights Templar, and the Crusa-
ders were in force. In the abort
ginal America, the Red Indians
had their laws of honor; likewise
the Zulus, Hindus, and the later
European nations have their an
Gent codes.

the publication of the prohibition
report of the Wickersham commits

President Hoover of the dry side
of the liquor issue. There is no

that point in any official quarter

AS a matter of fact, President

against revision of the Eighteenth
Amendment in his message to the
Senate transmitting the Wicker

friend, who said that politicians
and editors had widely misinter-

their comment on his message. The
President was described as feeling
that his statements against specif-
&c revision had been misconstrued
IN some quarters as placing him
against any revision of the amend
ment in case a further trial should
show that the law could not be
enforced This was the general
purport of newspaper articles and
editorial comment on the message
1t was said. Those close to the
administration said that it was
only fair to the President that his
position, as defined in his message
should be correctly interpreted.

The prohibition issue has been
pitchforked still further into the

The President had before him a
report upon which he might have
taken almost any stand. it is
agreed. He might have Joined
with seven members of the com
mission, who, in their Individual
conclusions, indicated a belief that
constitutional prohibition is I'M
enforceable and some radical
change must be made. Then, too,
he might have agreed with those
commissioners who feel that a re-
vision, if not repeal, of the Eigh-
teenth Amendment is imperative
if flexible plant of prohibition
enforcement is ever to be devised
in this country and put on a work
able basis.

But Mr.. Hoover did none of
these things He took at literal
face value the commissions first
conclusion as set forth in its COM
posite summary, to the effect that
is opposed to repeal of the Eigh-

his decision to stand upon that

t h e Wickersham commission
promptly issued a statement call
ing wholly without foundation

that the President had influenced
the formation of parts of its re-
port. The statement said that the
report had not been changed after
1t was signed and that "at no
time has the President in any
manner attempted to influence the
recommendations of this commits
sion.' 1t said assertions to that
effect had been made sin certain
newspapers and that kilograms

mission had suggested the report
