Malta Council Meets in Impor- 1
tant Session.
An adjourned meeting of the MalIta c
City Council was held Tuesday even- (
ing in Tressler & Kirton's office, L
which was a long-drawn out, acrimon- t
ions affair. The debates were de- t
cidedly heated, and the atmosphere f
sulphurous owing to too wide diver
gence of opinion. This arose over t
the proposed acceptance of the water- I
works system and the payment of f
Mr. Kemper, and also the use of the I
city mains as a test for the fire t
department. The ayes won out, and I
the bills for the special water
improvement districts Nos. 4 and 5, 1
and the special water improvement
districts Nos. I and 2 were ordered a
paid in full. I
Some citizens were present and e
objection to payment of Mr. Kemper c
was made because it is thought that 1
the systems were not inspected thor- I
oughly prior to payment, and that i
they should be looked over by a ]
competent disinterested expert, in I
behalf of the city before Kemper is I
paid.
Another thing which seemed so
manifestly unfair to many present
was that Mr. Kemper refused abso
lutely to let the Malta Fire Depart
ment take charge of the waterworks
system long enough to test its
efficiency in fighting tire. This is one
of the main reasons why Malta needed
and put in the system, and it looks
very peculiar, to say the least, that
Mr. Kemper should refuse this.
Instead of an expert being appointed
by the city to inspect the new systems
the three members of the council
were appointed for this duty.
Among other business transacted
several bills were ordered paid, and
Chas. Wolfe was appointed city
marshal and was required to furnish
a bond of $1,000.
A. S. Hanscom was asked if he
would open a set of books for the
city, as the city accounts are getting
too voluminous for desultory hand
ling. lie took the proposition under
consideration.
The council also adopted resolutions
"of reapsi t to the memory of the late1

Accused Murderer Brought Back.
J. A. Crisler, the man accused of
the murder of Julius Brown up near
Opheim several months ago, was
brought back to Glasgow last week
Saturday from Canada whether he
had tied, and locked up in the county
jail, where he will remain until his
preliminary hearing which is set for
Monday, November 2:3d. His brother,
Charles L. Crisler, of Brook, Ind.,
arrived in Glasgow shortly after his
arrival, and will remain until his
brother's trial.
It is not decided as yet who will
defend ('risler, as no definite arrange
ments have been made for his defy nse.
Poisonous Plants on the Range.
Six of the poisonous plants that
canse the heaviest losses of livestock
on western ranges are described with
the aid of full page photographs in i
circular just published by the United
States department of agriculture
under the title, "Principal Poisonous
Plants of the Western Stock Hauiges."
Despite the damage that these
plants do every year there are many
stockmen who do not recognize them
and in consequence are unable to
protect their stock effectively from
being poisoned by them. It is proba
ble that there are on the range a
number of poisonous plants but the
heaviest losses are those produced by
the plants named in the circular.
These are the zykadenus, or death
camas, the lupine, the rattleweed or
white loco. one of the worst of the
many varieties oIf loco plants, the tall
larkspur and the cicuta or water
hemlock. Of these the cicuta alone
is dangerous to man, causing violent
convulsions and even death. The
root of it, however, is the only
poisonous part. In the case of the
other plants, with the exception of
the lupine, all parts are poisonous to
stock. Both the tall and the low
hirkspu r lose their po0isonous finalities
after blossoming.
'Thie illustrations in the circular are
accompanied by brief' descriiptions of
the plant which should enable the
stock mien to identify them readily.
The symptoms peculiar to each I ni
of poisoning and the remedy, wa
there is one, are also set forth.

The Passing of Marion Survant.
While not entirely unexpected, the
death of Miss Marion Survant in
Great Falls last evening has immeas
urably saddened the many friends of
the family both in Malta and all over
the state. After her recent operation
for appendicitis she made such a val
iant fight for life that hopes were en
tertained that she might recover.
However, complications 'set in, and
finally took away one of the sweetest
little gitls ever known in Malta, to
the irte arable loss of her family and
friends.
Marion, or "Kitten" as she was
familiarly known to her playmates,
was th youngest daughter of Senator
and Mri John Survant, was born in
Malta fourteen years ago, and in that
sense was one of the native pioneers
of the hduntry. She was dearly loved
by her ebhoolmates and her countless
friends, and will be universally
mourned by the whole community.
Her sftny disposition had endeared
her to ,o many, that immeasurable
sympathy goes out to her family, of
wvblcli, eside her parents, Miss Anna
Lee atid' Burner Survant survive, her.
The ;rmains will be brought back
to Mafta on Friday, but as yet no
definiteiarrangements for the funeral
have been made.

Drain of Horses Great.
The War department is entirely
justilled in its alarm over the rapid
inroads on the supply of horses and
mules in the United States which are
being made by the warring govern
ments of Europe. Agents of France,
Russia, England, and in fact practi
cally all of the belligerents are in
this country buying up animals suit
able tor cavalry and other war uses,
and in a comparatively short time
the choicest of these will have gone
abroad.
This may meals a thriving busimes
for breeders and traders.. but fuasr;
exportation should be prohibiter 4t;
as the War department fearse eb
enough sound horses and mules a A;
be left for the use of our own :am.
