MONTANA GIRLS RULED CAGE
Do you know that the "women's
worlds basketball championship" was
once the property of a Montana team?
The Fort Shaw Indian girls team
in 1904, owned the absolute right to
the title.
When the worlds fair was on at St.
Louis, the Montana maidens conclusive
ly demonstrated skill and class to ex-
position crowds.
When the Montanans defeated the
St. Louis Alumni team by the decisive
scores of II to 6 and "a to 8, in the
final games of the first national
women'S tournament, there was no
doubt as to the superiority OF the
Shaw girls.
Immediately following the conquest
at the tournament, the World Cham

world, at any hall, in any city, in any
country.

of superior team work and basket shoot
ing in all games played. The girls from

One Shoe Off When
80 Miles From Home

Mankato-"One shoe off and
one shoe on'-this phrase may
give enjoyment to poetry loving
youngsters, but when you happen
to have only one shoe and are
about 80 miles from home, as
Douglas Jensen, local youth was
recently then the phrase may not
give you enjoyment. Jensen, re-
turning from the Twin Cities, had
done a bit of walking and when
his foot began to ache he sat down
near a car to take off the pinching
shoe. He deposited it on the
running board of the car, which,
without warning, started away.
The youth forgot his sore foot and
started after the car, but one
shoe makes running difficult. The
car got away. Recalling the home
of a friend nearby, Jensen Dor
rowed pair of shoes which were
slightly large. He is home now
with sore feet, a pair of shoes too
large, and one without mate.

PHILADELPHIA, August 20 -
President Roosevelt may be forced
to run for a third term in 1910 be-
cause no other leader will be able
to save the Roosevelt program if a
party purge" fails to crush the
strong group of Democratic legisla-
tors who are fighting the leftward
trend of the Second New Deal, ac-
cording to DR.. Stanley High, former
White House adviser.
The President, DR.. High says in
today's Saturday Evening Post, was
prepared for an ultimate split in the
ranks of his supporters, but his first
defeat-on the Supreme Court is
sue-precipitated a premature break
which is likely to jeopardize attain
ment of the goals he has set for his
second term.
The burial of the Supreme Court
plan will not, in DR.. Highs opinion,
restore harmony within the Demo-
cratic party; rather the Presidents
refusal to compromise indicates
that he has chosen to part company
with those Democratic senator's and
congressman who, while favoring the
objections of the Administration,

STANFORD TO
RETIRE ATCLOSE
OF FIRST TERM

Governor Stanford announced in
an unexpected 88-word statement
Wednesday night that he would not
seek reelection.
His statement, written in long
hand, also said:
'I am in nc way preparing to
seek another office" II shall devote
my time diligently to the needs OF
the state.
"I have always been in favor OF
but one term for governor; how
ever, 1 have advocated that the
term should be for four years.
"The governor is barely isaugu-
rated when he necessarily must
commence campaigning again. Then
the state suffers by his inattention
to his duties. Also, all persons hold
ing their positions under him divide
their time between politics and the
performance of their duties"
While declining to be quoted di-
rectly, Governor Stanford indicated
the critical nature of the patronage
problem prompted his decision to
withdraw from politics at conclus-
ion of his first term in the execu-
tive chair.
AS long as the governors office
was filled with favor and job-seek-
ers. he. could not carry on the work
he pledged to do, Stanford said.
He asserted that Unsuitable de-
mands of patronage hungry follow
ers and their attitude have vir-
tually deprived him of all normal
