OBSTINATE Sheridan, centrally located in
q rcctangle Of more than % counties
in three states as the capital city of
Absaroka. One man went so far as to
hint that land in the business section
Ct the city was ready and waiting to
be donated for the site for 4 state cap
,tcl building.
Here is how the new state would be
composed:
From Wyoming-The northern third
of the state. including Yellowstone park
and the counties of Teton. Park. Hot
Springs. Washable. Big Horn Sheridan.
Johnson. Campbell, Weston, Crook and
q portion of Fremont.
From Montana-The southeastern
border counties of Carter, Powder Riv-
er. Big Horn and a portion of Rosebud.
From South Dakota-The western or
Black hills portion of the state, includ-
ing the counties of Harding, Perkins,
Butte, Mead, Lawrence. Pennington.
Custer, Washington, Shannon, Fall
River and portions Of Washabaugh
and Bennett.
Pressed for reasons why the proposal
for a new state should be preached at
this time, one man gave out the follow
ing:
The state of Absaroka would be a
land of beauty and resources, knitted
closely together by the same geograph-
ical lines and the same interests.
1T has even been suggested that we
go further in this project and include

River and Big Horn counties and the
southern portion of Rosebud county.
Those Montana counties are more
or less isolated from the rest of their
own state and the fact remains that
they are in the normal trade territory
of Sheridan, Gillette and Bell Fourche.
People living in those counties will tell
you that they have been given little
consideration by the remainder of the
state and have not had adequate rail-
road service and have had very little
highway improvements.
Portions of northern Wyoming have
also in the past been more or less iso-
lated from the rest of the state and
right now a person living in Sheridan
CT any other northeastern Wyoming
town must enter other states to reach
his W state capital by train.
And for many years this portion of
the state was regarded as an orphan or
stepchild. Geographically, we belong
ed to Montana or South Dakota. In adj
dition, certain interests have for years
been dissatisfied with the administra-
ton of the northern half OF the state.
"The difficulties of western South
Dakota are well known. The people
think they are not getting a square

citizens of eastern South Dakota-and
the final straw has been a proposed ore

company, the largest industry of the
western portion of the state.

RAISES PRIZE POTATOES

Aaron HadWin Of Pleasant valley, was
a visitor in Fort Benton recently and
brought the editor of the Fort Benton
River Press a fine lot of his registered
potatoes. The potatoes brought were
of the Irish Cobbler type and there were
II in the lot and they weighed Just II
pounds. Mr.. Hadwin stated that these
we're the best baking potatoes raised.
MI. Hardwin, for many years, has been
recognized as an expert in the potato
line and has perhaps won more prizes
for potatoes and corn than any other
man in the northwest.

second half of the program would
be given in place of the symphony, and
that the latter composition would be
played as the second half-provided
the weather became no worse. And
although the mist grew heavy once
or twice, there was not enough rainfall
to disturb those lovers OF music who
formed the audience.
Mr.. Ganz again showed his personal
magnetism and his knowledge and
mastery of the music, in his con-
Quoting, and again was cheered' by
the members of the orchestra at the
close of the program.
The opening number was the over
ture to Glinkss Russian and Lud-
mila." played with his characteristic
precision, marked rhythm as well as
breadth, and rich tone color.
The dancers followed in their first
group, Miss Winslow dancing to Mas
sanet's "Andalouse," in which she
managed long. fan-shaped train to
her close-fltting gown, with the ut
most kill.
IN HER later appearances, prelude
of Chopin, Won Dohnanyi's "Valse
Impromptu" and the closing number,
she showed versatility, a thorough
knowledge of the music and the art
of perfect relaxation and control OF
muscles, as well as the rhythm and
poetry of the music. Her interpre-
tations are vivid and have a spiritual
quality not always found in present
day dancers. Her work in the Chopin
prelude was marked by originality
both in her Interpretation and in the
effective costuming, and in the
Dohnanyi valse her every move was
grace itself, while the rhythm in
body, arm and hand was like the
rhythm of a calm sea, infectious and
captivating.
Her final. number, the largo from
Handel's "Xerxes,' was outstanding
as interpretative dancing, and in its
spiritual quality was like a benedic-
ton. She was assisted in this number
by Olive Cousens. Nancy Minor

Glimpses of Stage Folk
in Washington.

THERE is an old Spanish proverb
which says that women make
bum newspapermen. Be that as it
may, we have lately become convinced
that newspapermen make splendid
actors. In the past three months we
have met several gentlemen who grad
uated from the city room to the spot
light, and they have been variously
impressive as entertainers. The most
important of these is Leo GARLIC, the
Earle stage headliner this week, who
first discovered his thespian talents by
amusing reporters and copy readers
on San Francisco sheet After going
out to cover story, he would return
to the Office, write it, maybe tack on
small cartoon to illustrate it, and
then settle down to tell the boys about
the things that are never printed. He
enjoyed initiating the accents and
mannerisms of every character he
mentioned, and his reputation as a
mimic mounted steadily.
Eventually he was induced to appear
ut The Family Club, and thence he
graduated to the legitimate stage. In
films GARLIC has been so long asso-
ciated with dialect roles that it is a
distinct shock to discover he normally
speaks without the slightest accent,
that he is not by any means for
eigner. but a descendant of that
ancient and justly proud Latin stock
which peopled California ere the pres
ent-day Eastern aristocracy rose to
supremacy by sharp fur-trading, SELL
ing whale blubber and such.
During his years on the stage, how
ever, Garlic was not confined to dia-
lect roles. He played a few parts
straight, alternating them with i'm
presentations of everything from
Chinese mandarins to Mexican ban
dts. His speciality has always been
the sensitive, whimsical bad man, the
fellow addicted to homicide, profess
sional gambling or other family in
delicate habits, but beneath it all a
lover of poetry, flowers, music and
gracious women.
The peak OF those portrayals was
his recent characterization in Love
Me Forever" AS a stockyards worker
risen to riches by shrewd gambling.
consumed by deep passion for opera
and a pathetic worship of refinement,
he quite easily lifted the picture from
our handsomes, modern canary, Miss
Grace Moore and made an instan-
