SHERIDAN tenth IN
Debt REDUCTION

Debts must be paid, and debt pay
ments increase taxes" With that
terse statement, the Montana Taxpay-
er just issued for month of Septem-
Der bluntly tells the story of high
taxes in counties over the state, Of
which Sheridan county is one.
With the next bonded Indebtedness
standing at more than a quarter-mill-
ion dollars, and with a board Of coun-
ty commissioners determined to cut
down that Indebtedness as rapidly as
possible, there a be little hope for
any immediate material decrease in
tax rates.
While taxes in this county remain
high compared with many others in
the state, it is at least gratifying to
know that while five counties in the
state were actually increasing their
bonded Indebtedness, Sheridan coun.
ty reduced its debt by $4,000, and
that only nine other counties in the
state sliced off a greater amount.
Without issuing any additional
bonds, at the present rate the entire
Indebtedness would be wiped out In
another five years, as the present
net Indebtedness is now down to
$262,97S.
P. j. Kelly, who recently com.
pleted the examination of the coull
TVS books, give his official endorse
ment to the attitude of the present
administration when he attached the
following comment to his report: wv
hope that the county commissioners
will not make the mistake that pre-
vious commissioners made in not
making sufficient levies for the sink.

made sufficient levies, there would
have been no need to think of a re

The examiner also made the com
ment, "the records of the various of
fices were found to b written up ir

Possibilities OF
BIG MUDDY PROJECT
GIVEN BY ENGINEER
Project Will Be Pushed at
Capitol Senator Murray
Tells Club Here

Assurance of cooperation from
Montana's congressional body at
Washington in an effort to have the
Big Muddy river irrigation project
approved was received from Sen.
James E. Murray this week.
Sen. Murray. in a letter to Anton
Nelson, president of the P%lentywood
Commercial club said that when the
project was submitted to Washington
for consideration, Montana's delega-
ton would appear before Works Pro.
gress Administration officials, favor
ing the project.
Sen. Burton X. Wheeler previous
ly wired the local club that he would
lend support to the project.
Surveys on the proposed irrigation
project have been completed and it is
understood that they have been tor
warded to Washington.
Photographic engineer Zip" Nip
ton, of the State Water Conservation
board vas here last week end taking
photographs of the proposed dam site
near Daleview, lands and towns along
the Big Muddy river and the pictures
will be sent to Washington. The pho.
tographs will aid Works Progress of.
ficials in determining the feasibility
of the project.
While in P~lentywood Mr.. Upton
photographed the Plentywood school
building and several residences which
will also be sent to Washington.
The engineer stated to The Herald
that the project in the event that ii is
approved, would be of great benefit
to Sheridan county. He pointed out
that thousands of acres along the
Muddy river would be put under irri-
Lake.
The reservoir, from present data
compiled, would be located at a nat
ural site. Mr.. Nipton expressed belief
that towns along the Muddy would
be greatly benefited and that increas-
ed population would undoubtedly be
the result.
Hundreds Of acres of land, some
practically subAmarginal would be put
under irrigation. An ample water
supply for irrigating the valley
would ne available, the report to Wa
shington states.
The Photographic engineer said
that he believed that the Water Con-
~servation program adopted by Gov.
Frank H. Cooney was one of the most
beneficial move made in Montana.
He said that Montana's governor,
the Water Conservation board and
Works Progress officials were MAX
ing every effort to get feasible pro
jects approved and that the Big
Muddy project was receiving favor
able consideration from state offic.
ials.

High School Cridders to Play
Old Rivals Here Saturday

The Plentywood Wildcats are put
ting on the finishing touches for the
football game with Scobey Saturday
here.
Fundamentals are being stressed,
but much time Is being spent in team
play and in polishing up the work in
the backfield.
The squad will be light but fast
and appear to be more aggressive
than the squads of previous years.
A consistent ball carrier Is lack.
ing on the squad but improved block
ing may take care OF this deficiency.
Hueth, Splinter, who Joined the
squad this week, will undoubtedly
strengthen the backfield somewhat.

RESERVE RESIDENTS
REPAIR MANY ROADS

Residents of the Reserve vicinity,
cooperating with the board OF county
commissioners have accomplished
considerable road repairing and gra-
ding the past two weeks.
A strip of road 4 miles east from
the Plentywood 4Culbertson highway,
2 miles south of Reserve, l mile east
of the town to the highway and ap-
proximately 6 miles Of road west from
Reserve has been repaired through
the efforts of those who live along
the road.
The people are picking rocks and
paying for gas and oil consumed.
Sheridan county furnished the mach
inery.
An exceptionally good job has been
done on all the roads. An elevator
grader, followed by a heavy road
planer, left a wide and smooth road.
1t is probable that the roads
worked will be gravelled this winter
by WPA labor.

calls in action this year will see a fast
er and more open game than that Of
past years. Those who saw the SEQ
hey and Sidney games OF last year,
saw some good high school football.
However, all teams are stronger
this year and a higher class Of play
sistant coaches is available this year
and consequently the squad will be
more thoroughly grounded In the
fundamentals.
The probable starting lineup will
be GustafsOn or Ewing left ends;
MarkusOn Oh Medders, left tackle;
Bouds, left guard; Newton, center;
Stenmark, right guard; Salisbury,
right tackle; Koike or Newton right
end; Lund or Kjelstrup, quarter.
back, Zeidler, left half; Collins or
Heth, ~fulpback; Bennett, Hueth or
Murray, right half.
Others who are certain to see &C
ton are Ewing at end, A. Hegland at
end. Knudsen and Strubeck at tackle,
Black, Stenehjem and Fiske at
guard. Backer, halfback will not be
available for the Scobey game.

Interest MEASURE
Will Be POPULAR

With favorable crop returns in
some sections of the county, there is
every reason to believe that many
taxpayers will take advantage Of the
opportunity to pay accumulated delin-
quent taxes this fall without penalty
and interest.
This saving, which in most cases
will average nearly a third of the or
iginal tax, can be made IL the back
taxes are paid before Dec. l, this
year.
For instance, it has been computed
that on taxes delinquent since 1925
the actual percent OF saving is So
percent, while on 1888 taxes, the
saving would be IL percent-and for
the fellow who has been paying his
taxes quite regularly and might be
delinquent only for 1884 taxes, the
savings would be-well, that's anoth.

Dog That Grabbed Hoover's
Leg Is Visitor In P~lentywood

Lost somewhere in northern
Montana, presumably In the vici-
nifty of Malta, VAS a dog that
once lived at the White House
for nine months, and that has the
distinction of being, 80 far as Is
known, the only dog to ever bite
President Hoover. That was a
news story carried in the Sunday
edition of the Great Falls Trib-
une.
That dog-the n that start
ed the anti-Hoover move was In
Pientywood over tho week end.
Monday morning he romped In
front Of the Herald office having
a "hiqh" time with several newly
made canine acquaintance.
The dog came to Plentywood
with Sherman Daragisch, repre-
sentative Of the Tribune Printing
and Supply Co., Of Great Falls.
Mr.. DaragIsch brought the dog
here from Wolf Point where II
had been for several days, hum
gry, and homeless. A hotel pro-
prietor there had told Mr.. Dara-
gisch Of the dogs plight, believ-
ing that it had been left by tour
lists.
The pooch took a liking to his
newly acquired master. Dara-
gisch works for a good Democrat
ic organization and maybe the
anti-Hoover. TERROR sensed the
connection.
Daraqisch and the dog left
Plentywood Monday morning and
when he gets to Great Falls will
learn about the missing dog. The
dog will then be sent to RIdg-
farm, H., to Fraser Hunt, author,
who owns him.
Hunt had teIephoned the Tribune
from cuIbertson Of his loss, and
explained that 1t presumably
Jumped from an open window In
his car between Malta and Cul-
bertson.
The dog was given to Hunt
by a White House secretary short
" after the Hoover incident.
