BIG HORN ROD & GUN CLUB
CUTS MEMBERSHIP TO 81
An Active Canvass for Members
Will Be Made Over County
Coming Week.

The Big Horn County Rod &
Gun club held a meeting at the
Office of the president, Matt R.
Calderwood, Wednesday evening.
Among other business transacted,
it was voted to reduce the annual
membership dues from $50 to 81,
the idea being that with this
modest membership fee, every
man in the county can afford to
become a member. and that a
large membership will be built up,
thus making the club an effective
force in the way of bringing about
better hunting and fishing.
Parties wishing to take out a
membership will be given an OPP
portunity during the coming week,
when an active canvass will be
made in Hardin. St. Xavier, Crow
Agency, Lodge Grass and Wyola.
Those failing to be called on by
the canvassing committee, may be
accommodated by mailing a check
for ST to george M. Kalberg, Sec
rotary, at Hardin.
Inasmuch as all fishing licenses
expired April 80, fishermen should
not forget to procure a 1884 IL
cense before going fishing.

Long a champion of tribal rights,

for Superintendent Of
the Grow Reservation by a
Vote Of sol to 199.

As a result of the overwhelming
majority given Robert Yellowtail
at a reservation-wide election held
on the Crow reservation, Tuesday,
at which 700 members of the Crow
tribe went to the polls and cast
their ballots either for or against
him, he will be the first native to
sit in the office of superintendent
of the Crow reservation.
Yellowtail's appointment rests
with John Collier, commissioner
of Indian affairs, who ordered the
referendum vote, and there ap-
pears to be no doubt he will make
the appointment just as 500 as
the result of the election is offici-
ally reported to him by Warren
L. OHara, the special agent sent
here by the Indian department to
conduct the election.
There were polling places at all
principal points on the reservation.
Yellowtail lost but one precinct,
Black Lodge, which rendered an
adverse vote Of SIS to 43. At St.
Xavier the Eyes" and mo" vote
was a tie, Stand. All other pre-
cincts gave substantial Eyes" ma
jorities. Lodge Grass, his home
precinct, gave him 154 to II. The
total vote was SOL, Eyes," to 1879

1870 of the total.

Retired Army Man Succumbs
at Washington After Two
\ Months Illness.

News OF the death OF MAI. Gen.
Hugh L. Scott, which occurred
Monday night at the Walter Reed
hospital in Washington, D. c.,
after an illness Of two months,
will be read with keen regret by
the people Of the nation, gener-
ally, and especially by residents
Of the western part Of the coun-
try, where he spent the best
part of his eighty years.
In 1876, when but % years of
age, he was graduated from the
U. S. military academy at West
Point and saw active service al
most Immediately in the campaign
against the Sioux Indians. For
many years he was an army Of
ficer in military expeditions on
the western plains and rose grad
ually in rank until at the be-
ginning of the World wal he had
attained to the post of chief Of
staff, which post he held from
November, 1914, to September,
1917, and laid the basis for
Americas participation in the
conflict with Germany.
General Scott was a warm
friend of the Indian and was
revered by the members of the
various tribes, all of which he had
visited at various times during
the past half century. He made
almost yearly visits to the Crows.
spending several days on each
occasion at Crow Agency. His
last visit here was made during
the past summer. The following
sketch of his career is repro
duced from Tuesday mornings
Billings Gazette:
Through all his last years, Scott
continued vigorously his research
es and writings on the Indian
sign languages which he, alone
of all white men, had mastered
during his years on the plains. In
1880 he was commissioned by the
library of congress, to compile a
record for all time of this curious
mode of expression.
In 1881 he set up headquarters
in Browning, Mont, and sum-
moned from near and far his
old friends, the chiefs and braves
of 10 tribes, for a final powwow.
With them he conversed again in
10 variations of the strange, ST.
lent language, in which, so years
before, he had arbitrated, pleaded,
and, when that failed, made war
with them.
Before they parted, they gathered
before a motion picture camera
and went through once more the
signalings and semaphores Of the

HARDIN WATER COSTS
MOST OF ANY IN STATE
If Water Rates To Be Lowered
Plant Will Run Behind at
Taxpayers Expense.

There has been considerable
talk recently about asking the city
council to reduce the charge for
water for lawn sprinkling purpos-
es, during the late spring and
summer months.
It is true that a higher rate is
charged for water in Hardin than
in any other city of like size in
the state. The rates r for the
first 5000 gallons, $3.50; for the
next 1000 gallons, $1.5O, making
$500 for the first 5000 gallons.
For all water over 5000 the pres
ent rate is 20 cents per thousand
gallons, making the charge for the
first 10000 gallons, IS. From this
charge a discount of 1919 is al
lowed if the account is paid by the
10th of the month, making the
net cost to the consumer $3.50 for
10000 gallons of water. The mini
mum charge for water is 1925, af-
ter the discount is taken off.
This Is a high rate, but the cost
of pumping and treating the wat
er from the ilt-infested Big Horn
river is the highest of any city in
the state, approximately IS cents
per thousand gallons.
For the year ended June 80,
1888, the total receipts of the
Hardin water department were
$11 ,439.81. The cost of pumping
and treating the 39,835, 101 gallons
used was $10,010.04, leaving a net
profit over cost of $1,429.77.
While the operating expenses
last year were somewhat above
normal because of the purchase of
castiron pipe to replace the worn
out pipe, yet it can be readily
seen from these figures that any
person using over 5000 gallons of
water per month at a cost of 20
cents a thousand gallons, gets the
water for about what it costs the
city to pump and treat it; there
fore, any reduction in rates would
mean the furnishing of water at
a loss, which would have to be
made up by the taxpayers of the
city.

nurse of Billings, is visiting rela-
