Sheep, Cattle In
Shape For Winter;
Outlook Bright

Reservation sheepmen have a
Very optimistic outlook of the
approaching winter, explaining
that the ideal fall has been all
that could be desired for groom
Ing their herds to withstand in
cIemencies.
Herds are in the very best of
condition, the time elapsing since
separating lambs from ewes hav-
ing enabled rich accumulation
of vitality.
Despite shortage of harvest
hands there was an abundance of
hay harvested this season. On
the basis of a moderate winter,
sheepmen contend. there will be
ample feed to sustain herds until
next springs grazing begins.
The only serious problem that
may develop is in caring for
stock that may get snow bound,
as was the situation last winter
when sheep, unable to get to the
stack, began eating each others
wool.
Out OF last winters experience
sheepmen have learned that the
use of horses in breaking trails
for herds that they may be
availed access to feed is prefer
able to motorized equipment.
The situation with cattlemen
compares with that of sheepmen,
herds being healthy and ready to
face stern winter.

Montana Provides
Ways and Means
For Soldier Vote

If any Montanan serving in the
nations armed forces isn't able
to vote in the 1914 elections it
won't be the fault of Senator
Dan M d d x. K, Big Horn,
Secretary of State Sam w. Nit
chell or the 1945 legislature.
Recently, noting discussions in
the national capital on the posi-
bilities of soldiers and sailors los
ing their votes next year and the
desirability of special sessions of
state legislatures to erase this
misfortune, S ator Maddox
calle d attention to Montana's
early action to forestail just such
a situation.
Four bills passed by the 1913
legislature after introduction by
Senator Maddox and group of
republican senators, changed the
states election laws TO insure
votes for men and women in the
armed services.
Almost as soon as the Maddox
bills became laws, Secretary of
State Mitchell went into action.
He employed extra help and COM
piled a list of every resident now
serving his country, a list that is
kept upto the minute by constant
revisions.
In brief. the Maddox laws pro-
vided for:
l. Special and easier methods
for men and women in uniform
to register as electors.
2. A special war ballot" to be
used by Montanans serving their
country. at home or abroad; bal.
lots for votes which will be
counted as late as the fourth
Monday in December following
the November elections.
8. Earlier printing of ballots to
allow time to get to soldiers aud
sailors.
4. Independent candidates O
file nominating petitions earlier
so war ballots" might be pre-
pared we'll in advance of election
dates.
Mitchell and Maddox believe
Montana has taken every step
necessary to insure protection of
voting rights of men and women
serving in uniform. Mitchell re-
ported army and navy action to
transport the war ballots" to
stations overseas and to return
them to Montana for counting.
If the thousands of residents
who may be away from home
next November do not vote. it
won't be Montana's fault, the
secretary of state declared.

school lands for inclusion in the
bird refuge, the state held this a
violation of the enabling act.
1.-THE circuit court decision" Bot
tomly said, gives the United States
the power to take over every acre

Deputy attorney general Clar-
ence Hanley, in pleading the Mon
tana case before the circuit court,
cited the case of Galen VS.. Sanders
county in 1910, in which the court
held that state school lands could
not be condemned for any purpose,
but could be disposed of only at
public sale.
The United States claims the Ma
tional Recovery Act gives the fed
eral government the right to con-
denim any public lands for erosion
control. for protection and propaga-
ton of wild life, and for providing
jobs for the unemployed
The circuit court, in deciding in
favor of the federal government,
held that such condemnation may
be made for any of these three rea-
sons.

ruling makes the Wildlife admin
istrator the sole judge of the de-
STABILITY or necessity of condemn
ing state lands"
Bottomly said he and his staff
are now studying court records for
possible conflict in rulings handed
down in previous circuit court cases,
with the hope that the case may be
appealed to the United States SUI
preme court.
In an Interpretation of bill
passed by the 1943 legislature, Bot
tomly has ruled that boards of
county commissioners may increase
the salaries of only those county
deputy officers who were appointed
after February rs, 1913, the eff
fective date of the law.
The bill empowers county boards
to pay county deputies and assist
ants up to 80 per cent of the elective
officers salary. In effect, the bill
raised the salaries of county depu-
ties 10 per cent
IF the appointment was made
prior to February Is, l943, it is my
opinion a provision in the Montana
constitution forbids the increase in
salary" he said, but IF the appoint
ment was made after the effective
date of the law, the deputy or as
sistant is entitled to the benefits of
