An outline of Dean Hamilton's his
tory indicates a. work different from
any which have been written. He pro-
poses to avoid a mass of minor details,
covered completely in other works, but
will explain trends and show how
the settlement of Montana was a con-
tinuation of the great pioneer move
ment which began in colonial days. The
history will recite events of most in
fluence, and stress how they correlate
with, and grew out O fthe basic prin-
ciples underlying history. 1t will be
similar to Jackson's The Frontier in
American History" and PaXon's Last
Frontier" but will be confined to Mon
tana and closely allied regions.
Dean Hamilton is to the best OF
my knowledge. the one Montanan best
qualified to write a history OF this
state" says DR.. Atkinson. H came

I'm writing a history of Montana.
Dean Hamilton can draw on his person.
al knowledge his intimate acquaintance
with historical figures of the state and
the many rare reference books he has

you listened with rapt attention to the
talk given by Father Sullivan and I am
sure that you will agree with me that
in Father Taelman we have a great
missionary as he is great in his humll-

before us, one of a much carried out
purpose of Christ and it was not so long
ago that all of these hills and valleys
were filled with red men. 1t has taken
long and faithful work to convert these
men and among these men who have
done most to bring this great deed
about were Father DeSmet and Father
Ravalli. It is on account of their great
work that these Indians have been fill
ed with Christ's message. But most
of all, we want to pay tribute to this
great man who has labored so years
to teach, preach and nurse these In
dams, the principals Of both GIVES and
religion. Great honor is felt for you,
the people of this nation, and him. for
age, together with every great tribe
in the Northwest"

While the new wheat adjustment
contract to be offered Montana grow
ers runs for the four year period,
1869, any wheat producer who
complies with all the terms Of the
contract and who wants to terminate
his contract at the end Of the 1887
crop year may do so If he desires, ].
c. Taylor, director, Montana Exten-
sion service says.
The f%our-year period for the new
contract has been selected to avoid the
expense Of frequent sign-ups, but the
two year cutoff period has been provid-
ed so that farmers who wish may term
mate their contracts.
A farmer who terminated his con-
tract at the end of the first two years
would not be eligible to enter into q
contract during any remaining part OF
the four-year period, Taylor says.
In addition to the individual term1-
nation, the contract may be terminated
for the country as a whole by the Sec
rotary of agriculture at the end of any

WITH THE ITALIAN ARMY


WITH THE ITALIAN ARMY
BOLZANO, Aug. 27-Ready for a
war cabinet meeting tomorrow,
Premier Benito Mussolini was re-
ported today to plan a public speech
Friday or Saturday which may
make world history.
The speech, it was said, will be
made from the steps Of the victory
monument at BOlzanO, at the CHI
max of the gigantic army maneu-
verS, involving in all 100000 men
which Mussolini is supervising on
the northern front
1t was on Aug. "a, 1884, at the eli
max of last summers maneuverS,
that Mussolini in speech at BolOg-
ma, now historic, said:
I'VE must become a military ma
ton, even a militaristic one-even,
l might say, a War-like one"
1.-TWO weeks later, in a speech at
Tarantoi, Mussolini said: If we
should be obliged to take the field
shall be at your head" The same
day, at Rome, officials expressed
anxiety at "militaristic' tendencies
in Ethiopia and disclosed that de
fensive" munitions were being sent
to the italian colonies. 1t was de-
MED that an invasion of Ethiopia
was planned. Next day the colonial
governors were recalled to Rome,
fear was expressed that Ethiopia in
tended to declare a holy war, and
it was revealed that troops were be-
ing sent0
Mussolini has made no extensive
public speech since he went to
Sardinia early in June, before the
Ethiopian crisis involved all Eu-
rope
Tomorrow's cabinet meeting, with
all members in uniform as they
were called from maneuvers, will be
held at the government palace at
Bolzano, where Mussolini is making
mis- headquarters during the maneu-
verS.
ConvocatiOn of the cabinet at the
maneuvers was regarded of impor-
lance, aside from the discussions
themselves. 1t is intimated that it
is not just to hold a cabinet meet
ing under war-lke conditions, but
that important factors of the crisis
will be considered and that there
may be some disclosure regarding
Italy'S military efficiency.
