IMPORTED BUFFALO HERD
 THRIVING IN PANAMA VALLEY

Buffalo imported from the States several summers ago and turned loose in the Panama valley south of Fairbanks. near Big Delta, , thriving. according to Doe Calvin Cripe He reported to Sam White district game warden that he re gently saw some or the buffalo near the old eorrals al Big Delta on May l. He counted 2S cows and five newly born calves. He also saw two large bulls about two miles above the place He says that he thinks al this time that the cows and calves form q herd by them selves, and chat the yearlings hang together, and the big bulls are in separate bunch or possibly two punches by themselves.
 The animals were seen crossing the Delta at a place where the wa ter was deep and very swift Cripe said that he watched their crossing with great interest since he had heard that the cows swan above the calves with the calves close to their bodies on the downstream side so as To get the protection of the CONS from the current How ever, Doe said, it did not work out that way this time since the calves, l though very young, shifted for themselves and got across the river as quickly as did most of the older animals.

Fairbanks gardens and lawns are being damaged by dogs which run loose at night states the News. Miner. A city ordinance provides that owners of dogs are prohibited from allowing them to run at large. However, many dog owners are setting their dogs free after 10 O. clock a. night to roam the city until morning when they are tied up again. Stray dogs which are picked up are tied up, and their owners are subject to a two dollar fine. Einar Thompson, chief of po- lice, warns dog-owners that licenses are long overdue. Not only does a city ordinance require that all dogs be licensed, but it is often impos- sible to determine the owner of a stray dog which has been picked up if the dog bears no license. Un- less owners keep their dogs tied. the regular fine of two dollars will be increased in an effort to stop the offenses.

new THIRD PARTY
NOT FAVORED BY
THE LEFT GROUPS

NEW YORK.-A lack of en-
thusiasm for the Lemke-O'Brien
presidential slate was shown by
Socialists, Communists and Farm
er-Labor Party advocates, on read
ing the announcement of the Union
Party candidates., backed by the
Father Coughlin and Gerald L. K.
Smith.
Socialists held that the most eff
fective way to build third party
IN the interests of labor and the
countryside is to roll up a large
vote for Norman Thomas in the
November elections. Thomas said
that some Republicans "may be
taking a flyer" in backing Lemke
candidacy in the hope of drawing
away Roosevelt support.
The Communist Daily Worker
cites the Republican New York
Suns interview with Coughlin, in
which the radio priest is quoted as
admitting that there is a strong
possibility that the Lemke ticket
will split Democratic and "pro-
gressive" ranks and result in the
election of Gov. Landon, and as
making it "quite clear" that he
would prefer Landon to Roosevelt.
The Communist organ calls the
Union ticket ga camouflaged move
ment that will aid the pro-Fascist
forces of this country" and "aid

THE COURT House
AND IT'S COST

All over the United States, and
in most every county al:.l NUM-
cipality in the State of Montana,
public buildings are beng con-
structed with the aid OF federal
grants. The United States gov
eminent makes these grants as a
relief policy to promote Euilding
that will provide work a., a part
of the general relief program.
All of the money allOcated for
this purpose is going to be used
somewhere, if none come; to Sheri
dan county it will not mean that
any the less money vii. be used,
but that more will be, ed else
where, only SHERIDAN [ 0UNTY
WILL NOT GET 1T.
When the paying of this money
occurs, by the way Of paying the
national debt, if it is ever paid, the
people of Sheridan county will pay
it's share, just as much if it does
not get it's share as thoy will if
it does-whether we bu;ili a court
house or not.
Facing this fact, is il lot SEN
sible, that Sheridan county get its
share? It surely is.
So why not build now a court
house that is needed, and needed
badly, and which must be built in
the near future, and build it when
the federal aid is available, which
will not always be?
1t will be very foolish and cost
ly act for the taxpayers of this
county not to vote the authoriza-
ton of the bond issue, July q.
The court house will beautify
the county seat; it will be a con-
venience for the people of the
county of which Plentywood is be-
coming more and more the center;
it will supply work now when that
work is SO badly needed; and it
can be built now cheaper for the
taxpayers than it will be possible.
So let's build when it is the
easiest to build, let's get our share!
Mr.. Taxpayer, vote Eyes" on the
court house bond proposal!

FAMINE FUTURE
FACES FARMERS
Holiday Takes Lead in Call
ing Mass Meeting, We'd
nesday, July IS, to Con-
slider Action for Feed and
Work Relief
SEN. MURRAY INVITED

Drouth grips the land! The worst
drouth the west has ever known,
worse even than the drouth of
1881 and 1884. At present it does
not look as if anything will be
raised in this section at all.
The last rain occurred about a
month ago. There was generous
precipitation, but, there was not
subsOil moisture to reinforce it. If
it had been followed by others as
copious, and the weather had re-
manned cool the fine promises of
a crop would have materiaized.
But the rain failed and the days
grew hotter and hotter, while the
grass withered and scared, and the
grain turned yellow, and the
forced heads blighted white. Yet
there was no respite in the torrid
heat nor the burning rays of the
sun.
The ranges are brown, the grass
dry and brittle. The water holes
are drying up. There is no hay
crop. The gardens are whitening.
In fact, in the memory of man
the conditions were never so bad
as they are right now.
The farmers face the summer,
the fall, the winter, without crops,
without feed, and with no means
of securing food and clothing for
themselves or feed for their cattle
without relief.
Relief for the most part has been
cut off. The policy all spring and
summer has been to take as many
off relief as possible and as fast
as could be done.
Every excuse available has been
resorted to in the cutting of farm
ers and workers off relief.
The county commissioners have
not taken steps to secure WPA
projects that could have been Sc
