sTEyENsgHLE By William Cochran, Editor Northwest Tribune
Did you know that Stevensvile is a historic spot?
1t has its name from Governor Stevens, first governor of this
Northwest territory.
Father DeSmet founded the first white settlement in the state
here in 1910. st. Mary's Mission was established here in 184l.
Father Ravii came here in 1845 and built the Mission church,
still in use. Old Fort Owen was established here by Major John
Owen in 1850.
The town of Stevensvile proper was established in 1864, when
John K. Houk, trader, drnted in with a pack-train of GA mules,
loaded with merchandise, and set up a trading post.
Here the first farming in Montana was done. Here was the
first flour mill. Here was the first sawmill in Montana. Stevens
vile was the first county seat of Ravaui county.
Stevensvile is today the second town in Rayali county with a
population of about 1000. 1t has good schools, good churches,
good business institutions and many splendid homes. It is sur
rounded by a rich orchard and farming area and has large can
ming and dairy products manufacturing.
HYSHAM By Mrs. o. G. Isaac, Hysham Echo
An incorporated town of 500 population, on the historic Lewis
& Clark trail, on the Yellowstone, a short distance down river
from the 140-year-old inscribed landmark, "Pompeys Pillar"
Hysham was established in January 1907 and named after
Charlie Hysham, president of the Hysham Cattle Company, which
operated in this section of the Crow Indian reservation. Hysham
is a modern town in every detail, the center of highly cultivated
irrigated farm land and stock ranges. 1t is situated on the
Northern Pacific main line, also served by Highway No. 10.

WALTER WINCHELL SPEAKS TO THE

Through courtesy of the White House and doubtless upon the urg- ing of Winston Churchill. several leading British newspapers have been sending small size copies of their home editions to selected cli- entele in this country for the pur- pose of cementing good will and presenting the British viewpoint.
 At the same time. some leading British newspapers, with the inter ests of the empire at stake along with their own. have been running advertisements in American trade journals. soliciting American good will.
