CabinetRange
Designated as
PrimitiveArea
Chief Forester Sets Aside
Rugged Local Section for
Recreational Use.
GIVES LIBBY
SUB-ALPINE PARK

MISSOULA, April pa thirty mile
range in the rugged Cabinet mountains
of northwestern Montana is designated
as primitive area, dedicated to in
spirational and recreational use of the
public, by an order approved by Chief
Forester F. A. Silcox, it was announced
today by the u. S. Forest Service,
regional headquarters at Missoula.
This area, a part of the Cabinet and
Kootenai National Forests, is one of
outstanding wilderness character and
scenic grandeur. 1t has so far been
visited by relatively few people, al
though national forest road now leads
within a mile of it. 1t is the plan Of
the forest service to maintain it In its
primitive state for enjoyment by nature
lovers and those mixers, riders and
campers who wish to explore and find
recreation under wilderness conditions
The tract will be known as the Cabinet
Mountains Primitive Area. Most of the
timber in the area is of SUBJ alpine
type, and the rugged terrain makes
excellent summer range for wild game,
including black and grizzly bear, deer,
elk, mountain sheep and goats. AS the
average altitude is over one mile, and
some of the peaks 5000 feet high, much
of the game is compelled to migrate to
lower levels in winter. The numerous
mountain streams flowing into the
Clark Fork Of the Columbia and the
Kootenai rivers are we'll stocked with
fish.
There are several so-called glaciers
in this country, but it is believed that
they are not true glaciers but large,
permanent snow fields
The forest service has completed
about one-third of system of trails
in the area. Occasional shelters needed
for administration and protection will
be erected. No roads, private develop
ments, or private landing fields for
planes will be permitted within the
Cabinet Mountains Primitive Area

Labelling Law
Protects Montana
Seed Buyers
Seed Inspected by Grain Inspection
I'd Laboratory at Montana State
College.

A larger proportion of agricultural
seed offered for sale by Montana deal
ers is labeled this year than last, w. O..
Whitcomb, superintendent Of the grain
inspection laboratory at Montana State
college, is informed by W. D. Hay, seed
analyst. Dealers are showing more in
terest in the labelling work than form
erly
The state labelling law is proving a
protection to- buyers of seed in Mon
tana, in that it informs them as to just
what they are getting and prevents this
state from becoming the dumping
ground of inferior seeds from other
states, Mr.. Whitcomb said2 All cases in
which seeds have been found to be i'm
properly labeled are reported both to
the dealer or farmer who is offering
the seed for sale, and to the state COM
missioner of agriculture who is the en-
forcement officer.
Inspection Of agricultural seed is now
underway in the state. The work in
wolves the sampling by representative
of the laboratory of the seed on sale
and making records of the labels ON
the various lots Of seed Samples are
analysed in the laboratory and results
compared with the labels MIR. Whit
comb said the quality of 1884 seed in
spected in the laboratory appears to
be UP to standard.

Brings Contraction of New
County Court House One
Step Nearer Reality.
SUPREME COURT
STUMBLING BLOCK

Word has been received by the coun-
ty attorneys office that the Public
Works Administration has allotted a
grant of $21, 10000 toward the construc-
ton of the new county court house.
The original allotment to Lincoln coun-
ty made in July, 1884, was for loan and
grant in the sum of $14,O0OOO for a
county library This allotment was res
cinded by the PWA last September.
After the November election the county
library application was reopened and
amended to include the new court
house. Final action on the amended
application was not taken until April
10, 1885
The allotment of the grant brings
our court house one step closer to
completion. About the only obstacle
standing in the way of an early COM
mencement of the project is the ruling
of the attorney generals office requir-
ing that the bond proceedings be tested
in the supreme court before the state
land board will be authorized to pur-
chase them. To our knowledge no steps
have been taken toward filing this test
suit which the attorney general sug-
gests should be an action to enioin the
county commissioners from selling the
bonds
The question of financing such a
test suit seems to be the reason Tor
the delay. There are several ways that
such suit might be financed but it
has been suggested that the best way
would be to take up subscription
among interested parties and have the
action brought in the name of tax
payer in the county -

RECEIVES PHOTOGRAPH OF
FIRST MASONIC TEMPLE

Mr., C. W. Hutton has received from
an old-time pupil Of his school, photo
graphs representing two historical
buildings within the sixteen mile ravine
known as Alder Gulch. One is a school
house at Adobetown, the oldest build
ing of its class in the state, and Within
which building Mr.. Hutton held the
tposition as teacher over SO years ago.

the gentleman sees fit to withdraw

After thinking it over, evidently real
izing that he was injuring his cause
more than helping it, Mr.. O'Connor
virtually apologized insofar as possible
for his remark and withdrew the same
from the Record and shortly afterwards
yielded me three minutes.
My contention of personal privilege
was based upon the historical signif-
icance of preventing interference with
attendance of member The Jefferson
Manual states. when a representative
is withdrawn from his seat, the 10000
people whom re represents lose their
voice in debate and vote as they dc
upon his voluntary absence Similarly
when a man is prevented from giving
expression to his views by the arbitrary
action of a single member Directing tc
his unanimous consent request, the
rights of his constituents are, thereby
infringed.
The point of order relative to the
privilege of the house was taken on the
ground that question Of thu privilege
of the house may be raised when it:
safety, dignity and integrity of its pro-
ceedings are involved As a practical
matter, with only an hour for debate
and half hour yielded to the demo-
cratically controlled republican min
ority and no time allotted to men who
conscientiously opposed the rule, moi
but the privilege of the house; since
the proceedings of the Journal would
not be kept intact and its safety like
wise was ieopardized inasmuch as
members should have complete and fair
information on any important rule.

possible injury to pupils by automo-

II the city would cooperate and make
provisions for the street south of the

This could be done by having some
white saw horses to set across the in

At evening these distractions could be
removed. Also the street between the

This is the last chance fhe students

and these people will do their best to

Such, the aged seers say, are the PEN
