Urges Fishermen
To Use Care With
Their Camp Fires
Careless Campers Ran Up Fire Bill
OF Nearly 100000 Last Yearbook
Out for Vigilantc Volunteers.

Hundreds Of fisho4men's fires will
soon dot the banks now that the fish
ing season is here.
BE careful is the friendly warn
ing issued by the u. S. forest service
at Missoula, and reiterated by the sup
ervisors of each OF the % national for
ests in Montana, North Idaho and east
ern Washington.
Last year" continues the warning,
careless fishermen and other campers
ran up a fire bill Of nearly $4,000,
besides running for years to come many
of the most attractive fishing and
camping spots in our mountains
And it adds, IF you are inrlined
to be forgetful while in the forests,
beware the Vigilante Volunteers! More
than 5000 in number, they are travel
ing the forest highways and trails all
summer, each armed with the power
of arrest for violation of forest and fire
law
So, to insure good fishing, pass the
word along to be careful with fires
Build your camp fire in safe place
and put it out-with dirt and with
water-before you leave camp, even to
fish the nearby stream.
The seasoned fisherman and camper
who is wise in the ways of the woods
always observes the following sia
rules for preventing forest fires. Il
might be we'll to cut them out anc

base his judgments. He becomes
the prey of conflicting reports
One man whispers one report in
his ear; another one tells him
just the opposite. One tells him
everything is wrong, all men are
crooks and the country is going
to the demnition bow vows. The
other one counters with the state
ment that everything is rosy and
that there is no need for alarm.
Under such conditions many men
naturally become confused and
they would gladly welcome infor-
nation that is reliable and in
which they can have faith.
To supply that desired informa-
ton is the duty and the privilege
of every worthwhile newspaper.

ment, these forces haul out the
same old aces to confuse and be-
fuddle the people. And chief OF
these aces is the spreading of mis-
information and outright false
hood.
We hold firmly to the convic-
ton that the people Of Lincoln
county are a unit in desiring the
right kind of government. Hold
ing that desire, they want real in
formation regarding county af-
fairs, in order that they may
know misinformation when it is
whispered to them. With the OBJ
ject in mind of giving the public
that needed and desired informa-
ton, we shall begin next week the
publication Of these few articles

All Stars Win
Easy Game From
Troy Aggregation
GoodIy Crowd Watches Libby Ball
Tossers Conquer Visitors with
an Is to III Score.

The Libby ball team won Sunday
against Troy in game on the Libby
diamond, with an Is to II score. The
visitors were apparently at the mercy
Of the locals all through the game with
the exception of the last inning when
Troy succeeded in putting seven run
ners across the home plate, bringing
their count from lonely 4 up to IL.
Walcott, who opened on the mound for
the visitors, weakened perceptibly in
the latter part Of the game and was
succeeded by McNeill.
The Libby boys showed good form
and gave WOLF fine support. AS this
paper has stated before, there is much
good material in the locals that will
develop into fast team with more
experience.
Quite number of Troy people came
up to see the game, and there was a
goodly attendance of locals The gross
receipts were SIS.
The complete story of the game is
told in the following data:

tai statistics and history peril

figures we shall publish will be
taken from official reports of

Assessment
Work Is Not
Necessary
Act of Congress Relieves
Mine Owners Of Yearly
Obligation.
REQUIREMENT LIFTED
FOR ONLY ONE YEAR

BUTTE, June 13.-No affidavit or
other notice of intention to hold min
ing claims without performance of rep
resentation or assessment work during
1882 is necessary under the Swing
resolution recently passed by congress
and signed by President Hoover.
Information to that effect has besA
telegraphed to the Montana School q
Mines, according to Prof A. E. Adami,
professor of mining engineering and
author Of the State Bureau of Mines
and Geology bulletin No. S, THE Loca-
ton, Representation and Patenting Of
Mineral Lands in Montana"
Professor Adami announced that the
full text of the resolution is as follows:
That the provisions Of Section 2324
of the Revised Statutes OF the United
States which require on each mining
been issued therefor not less than 500
claim located and until patent has
worth Of labor to be performed or i'm
provements aggregating such amount
to be made each year be and the same
IS hereby suspended as to all mining
claims in the United States including
Alaska during the fiscal year from
July l, 1881, to July 1, 1882
Assessment work was similarly sus-
pended during the war, at which time,
however, it was necessary to file an
affidavit of intention to hold. No such
affidavit is required this year.
Unless further legislation is enacted
1t will be necessary to perform tina
usual amount of annual labor before
noon July l, 1888, for the assessment
year beginning July /, 1882.

MORE MINING ACTIVITY IN
WEST FISHER DISTRICT

M. E. Schouweiler, John LovicIe,
Logan Cresswell and associates are
uniting in the development Of what
they believe is a promising gold prop
erty on Mill creek, just across the
mountain from the Golden West prop
erty on the West Fisher. The men own
nine patented claims there and have
filed on others, the holdings being on
both sides Of Mill creek. A vein of ore
has been exposed that shows clearly a
fissure formation. Men were put to
work this week cutting out trail and
cleaning out old tunnels and develop
ment of this property is to be pushed
steadily. Mill creek provides ideal
waterpower possibilities, it is said.

Takes $500
In Gold From
Placer Ground
Stranger Makes Rich Haul;
Scores Working Streams
in This District.
TWO MEN MAKING
EACH $500 DAILY

The daily press has numerous stories
these days of great numbers OF men all
over the northwest who are securing
the hills for gold and who are placer
mining wherever there is any chance
Of finding the precious metal. Hun
dreds of men who are out OF work are
taking this chance to make at least
a small sum of money to help tide them
over the unemployment period And
right here in the Libby district there
are scores Of men who are washing
gold and some Of them are doing
fairly we'll at it.
Earl Buckingham, jeweler, states that
practically every day he is asked 70
weigh gold by men who have been
placer mining in small way. A large
number Of them are working on Libby
creek and others are scattered through
out the district. Two who have been
working on Libby creek are making
about $500 day, states Buckingham.
The largest return, however, that has
come to Buckingham attention was
brought into the store the other day
by a stranger, a strange man accom-
panied by his wife and small child He
had 500 worth of the precious metal,
and said he had been working behind
an old dredge that evidently had been
standing on the stream for many years.
Another story of rich find that
reaches Libby is to the effect that an
old prospector at Bonners Ferry re-
Gently cleaned up $500 in about three
hours. Of course, that good luck did
not last long as the $500 came out OF
"a rich pocket that was soon cleaned
out.
AS a rule, no big money is being
taken out Of the streams by these anna
teur miners but most of them are salts
fled if they can take out even small
amount of gold to help pay living ex-
penses until labor conditions improve

LAST DAY FOR COUNTY
CANDIDATES TO FILE, JULY Is

While in the city recently Judge C.
W. Pomeroy stated that decision of the
supreme court had established that the
last day on which candidates for coun-
ty office can file their petitions is on
July IS, instead of July 10 as some
have thought. Heretofore, that was a
question that even the lawyers of the
state were uncertain about, but it now
appears that under a decision Of the
supreme court IN similar case, July
Is is the last day on which filings car
be made.

DAH[IAS named.
!. FOR RUDY

Two varieties of dahlias are
named for Rudy Vallee, famed
radio crooner, according to a
disclosure made by Prof. j. B. S.
Norton, of the University of
Maryland.
Prof. Norton has just COM
pleted check of 5000 varieties
of dahlias and discovered that
2,35S were named for women
and 1927 for men. Said the
professor:
"This personal naming some
times leads to strange cOmbina-
tiOns in reports Of flower
shows. One finds a prize won
by Mr.. Charles Johnson for
exhibiting Mrs. Raymond Jones'"
Prof. Norton pointed out that
only one variety of a given
flower is supposed to be named
for one person, but that many
persons newly acquiring fame
are not familiar with the Ell
quette of the matter and permit
their names to grace many
flowers.
