Hawkins Appointed Secretary Of State by Governor Erickson Helena, March 5.—Robert N. Haw kins of Virginia City, Madison coun ty, today became secretary of state under appointment of Governor J. E. Erickson to serve until the acquittal of Charles T. Stewart, impeached? by the house of representatives, or in case of his removal, until the next general election. Mr. Hawkins has been chief depu ty state examiner for many years and under several representing both parties, signed that position before taking up the duties of secretary of state, but was assured by Jay G. Larson, state examiner, that the position would again be available, should he relin quish the office at the conclusion of the trial which will begin March 21. An examination of the office be gan immediately with another deputy from the examiner's office in charge. No change in the personnel of the office is anticipated. C. L. Walker, chief deputy, is ill at home, but, with the appointment of Mr. Hawkins, the office, which has been unable to act officially since the articles of im filed in administrations, He re peachment were senate, Thursday, Saturday began again to function. Mr. Hawkins' first official act was to sign a requisition which had been pending for a day. Legislative labors ended Friday night when the senate agreed to re cede from its amendments to the ag ricultural extension and the univer sity appropriation bills, thereby elim-1 mating provisions for $35,000 addi tional money for the school at Fort Assinnniboine and $50,000 for a dor mitoiy lor the normal at Dillon. In the 60 days it had formulated a new bank code, a code for the admin istration of the state lands, a nuild ing and loan code, a school bond code, has enacted laws for regulation of the petroleum industry, established auto plate and clothing factories at the state prison, and proceed'ed a step or two further with establishment of a new normal at Billings and an agri culture and manual training school at Fort Assinniboine. SENATE IMPEACHMENT COURT ADJOURNS UNTIL MARCH 21 Helena, March 5.—Leaving behind it a record characterized as somewhat remarkable in many respects, ■ 20th Montana assembly vacated the legislative chambers at noon Satur day. With the consent of the house, the senate adjourned as a legislative body, declared itself in session as a court of impeachment to try Charles T. Stewart on charges of irregulari ties as secretary of state, and re cessed until noon, March 21, The morning session was a mere formality, necessary only that the presiding officers might sign, in open session, the several bills completed during the night by the enrolling committee. the i Gets Appropriation The Billings normal was given ap propriation but not for buildings. The Fort Assinnibone school, which has buildings, was given a board of con trol, but was not allowed sufficient funds to operate. Both are made units of the greater university. Governor Erickson has about two weeks to pass upon the 139 measures which came to his office during the last few days of the session, had previously approved 88 and ve toed' one, the bill which would have lifted the ban on dancing after mid night on Saturday. Farewells were said throughout the legislative floor of the capitol Satur day morning. Tears welled up in many eyes. It was apparent that the most friendly spirit prevailed in the house than has been the case for eral years. Until bade each other good-bye with the oft repeated hope that "you will be returned two years hence, while house leaders were rushing through the big measures in the en rolling room. At 10:55 Speaker Dav is appeared' at the main entrance of the house, accompanied by Chief Clerk H. J. -Faust with a big roll of blue, penciled bills on his arm. Mem bers who had waited all morning for the zero hour applauded. It was the start of the final session. When the house was called to order a quorum was present but many mem bers had already started homeward. Signs Nine Measures Speaker Davis then went down the line and signed nine measures as the final consignment of the session's grist. With each bill he repeated the announcement provided by the book, "The House will please take notice that the speaker is about to sign bill No." and when ment of the appropriation bill which have caused the deadlock was made, the house cheered. When the speak er reached the end of the list he nounced the signing of house bill No. (the banking code) as "last but not least," and the house again applauded. Measures signed included the land bill, the fish and game bill, appropri ations for state offices, state boards and state institutions, the agricultuie extension bill, the university appro priation bill and—the last—the bank ing code bill. All now go to the governor for his signature. When it came time to make the motion adjourning the senate there was some doubt as to the actual pro cedure necessary, in view of the fact that it would be necessary to con vene March 21 as a court of impeach ment. Goodman declared that one house could not adjourn for more than three days without the consent of the other and that a motion to adjourn sine die would be improper, because they would still be the senate sitting as a court. He was of the opinion that a motion to recess the senate til the day of the convening of the court would be proper. Look Up Procedure The senate was at ease a few min utes while leaders looked up in an old journal the procedure used in the trial of impeachment preceedings against Judge Crum in 1917. Finally a resolution was drafted ad journing the body sine die and re solving it into a court which receased until March 21, as follows: "Whereas, articles of impeachment have been presented to the senate and filed with- the secretary thereof, by He sev 10:30 members Mean announce an un the house of representatives by and through its board of managers, charg ing one C. T. Stewart, secretary of state of the state of Montana, with high crimes and misdemeanors and malfeasance in office and requesting the trial thereof; and "Whereas, it becomes necessary for the senate to remain in session as a court of impeachment to hear, try and determine said charges, "Now, therefore, the 'senate does hereby adjourn as a legislative body sine die, save and except, that the senate does and hereby resolve itself into court of impeachment to hear, try and determine the said charges aaginst the said C. T. Stewart, and as said court of impeachment does here by recess until 12 o'clock noon, March 21, 1927. OUR COUNTY COMMRS. (Continued from page One) owed to the County. What did our County Commission ers do? Instead of collecting the $700.00, they handed out to the Dis trict another $285.00 for building the bridges, making a total gift to the Drainage District of about One Thousand Dollars. HH \ou might ask if it is through pure ignorance on the part of our County Commissioners that deals like this are made. Oh, no, there is a reason for it. The Dagmar district gave French a splen did vote last fall. One man owns practically all of the slough so he is the one who gets the lion s part of the thousand dollars. That man boosted and worked as hard as he could for Frank at the last election, so now Frank comes out and pays his campaign obligations and being , la ^, ae 18 our County Commissioner j 1 ? does not have to take it out of bis own pocket; all he has to do is to ai £down m J our pocket and pull ] t ou t 111 torm °f taxes.

The church supper under the aus pices of the men of the Congrega tional church, was a big success. The men proved to be excellent waiters and the large crowd enjoy r ed the ex cellent repast. While some of the men appeared rather nervous in their new role, no serious accidents marred the up-to-date service of the gentle men. A nice sum w T as realized from the venture which will be used to defray expenses of the church. I was not at the meeting when this settlement was made. I am not sup posed to be at any meeting. I am supposed to be fired and my claims are turned down as fast as I send them in in order to "save" money for the taxpayers. AUG.

Trotzky Shorn of Power "Hytch" (the pet name, they give Lenin), they say, "was such a good man that his body will never turn to dust." Trotzky, the revolutionist with the silvery voice that fired the workers to rise and take power; the war lord of the first red army; the diplomat who startled and puzzled and anger ed the whole world at Brest-Litovsk, is shorn of all power. Today he is plumper, less daring, and almost as helpless as the Kerensky he over threw. Kerensky himself is touring Amer ica. Until a short time ago he edit ed a newspaper in Berlin, which pro claimed every few weeks that the red regime was on its last legs—but alas! Even this last venture of Ker ensky's has gone into bankruptcy. Other revolutionists so active in those first stirring years of the new Russia have had their day, and are now relegated to a back shelf in the hall of fame. Stalin on Top of Heap Zinoviev so long chief of the Com munist Internationale, and whose agile tongue poured revolu tionary phrases to startle the out side world, now has a minor post in the government planning commission. He fought Trotzky, who seemed to have the best chance to step into Lenin's shoes. After Trotzky's downfall, Zinoviev suddenly found himself in a defen sive position instead of an offensive one. On the horizon the figure of Joseph Stalin, rightly named Jaselph Djugashvili, a quiet and clever Geor gian, has shrewdly taken over the power Lenin left while the others were squabbling about it. Kameneff, too, who at one time shared a triumvirate with Stalin and Zinoviev, is a sadder and wiser man. He also fought Stalin, last view Moscow had of him was as he left dejectedly for his new post as Soviet ambassador to Italy. Thus have mighty changes come about. The old revolutionists are passing. Those who remain have lost in many cases, their high posi tions. Among the young men who are taking their places, there seems to be no single, outstanding light.

Every Council in Sheridan County was represented but one. ihe new Council of Action is a fine body of men thoroughly representative oi i the farmers of Sheridan county. Ev- j ery member of the Council is a farm er. The Council is a very secret, body but, however, gave out the in- | formation that after careful consul- j eration they did not see the necessity of hiring extra counsel when the Attorney General had offered to as- i sist the County Attorney in the case , of the County against the National j Surety Company.

Attorney General Offers Assistance When the clerk read the resolution Commissioner Kahle moved its adop tion but neither French nor Iverson seconded his motion. He then handed the following letter from the office of Attorney General Foot to the County Attorney: STATE ÖF MONTANA ». » ^ Heléna, Feb. 8,1927. Mr. A. C. Erickson, County Attorney, Plentywood, Montana. My Dear Mr. Erickson, I have your wire requesting as sistance from this office to collect the burglary insurance oh the coun ty treasurer's office from the Na tional Surety Company. This office will, of course, ren der you all the aid possible in this matter . but until the legislative session is over, it will be impossible to send anyone to Plentywood. I suggest that you prepare the ne cessary ploadings and send them to me "ith a copy of the policy. I will then check them over and sign and return to you for filing. When the comes to trial I will send someone to assist you at the trial. ^ ery truly yours „ . . Tr L. A. FOOT Commissioner Kahle explained that it was the custom to leave all legal matters pertaining to the county to case the County Attorney to take care of. He was elected and paid to do so. If for any reason he thought some matter was beyond his legal ability to handle it was customary for him to ask the County Commissioners to appoint a special counsel. In this case the County Attorney stated that he did not ask for the appointment of a special counsel. The commission ers took this responsibility on their own shoulders and he (Commission er Kahle) did not see the necessity additional counsel the Attorney General of the state ox lered his services free. Commissioner Iverson said that he would like to have the Attorney Gen eral give some light on the matter, Commissioner French said that he voted in favor of the hiring of Paul Babcock as special counsel and he j didn't care about changing his vote. l He did not seem to like the letter ^ rom the Attorney General which left 1 him without an argument in favor of expending a large sum of money for j CQUn * el IverS0 n seeing Frenc h was against the resolution introduced by Kahle failed to second! I the resolution and it lay on the table without being acted upon. Wednesday i On Wednesday morning Senator Charles E. Taylor, accompanied by County Attorney Erickson, appeared before the Board. The County At j j torney stated that he had not asked : f or the a pp 0 i n tment of Babcock and : ! i not think such appointment was necessar y or desirable at the time it S not"yet ÄÄ and p e thought it would be time to SU gg es t the appointment of special counse i w h en jt had. Taylor Talks Senator Taylor then addressed the I B oa rd stating that he had talked with the Attorney General before he (Sen. Taylor) ) e f{ Helena for home. "The Attorney General then assured me that jj e was g 0 j n g to assist the Coun ty the co n ec tion of its claim a g a j ns t the surety company and hop e( j the ex t ra a ppropriations for the Attorney General's office would pass so that cou id as sign an assistant on the case The appropriations were p asse d the Attorney General j g now j n a position to carry out the p rom i se contained in his letter. Un ^ er the c i rcums t a nces it would be putting the county to unnecessary ex p ense to hire counsel." jyerson said that it would be well t 0 confer with the Attorney General b e f ore continuing the employment of Babcock, but French was obdurate, jt wag fi na iiy decided to send a telegram to the Attorney General a sking if he could come to Plenty woot j a t an early date to have a con f erence with the Board of County Commissioners on the matter. - THE CONSPIRA CY The above transactions before the Board of County Commissioners are sequel to affairs that may yet re sult in a sensational exposure of a conspiracy, between a big foreign corporation andT certain local pohti c i ans> to beat the county out of sev era j thousands of dollars. Evidence 0 £ conspiracy is now being gath ere d which may' later be placed be-> f ore a g ra rul jury. After the robbery of the county treasurer's office, Mr. Clausen, at torney for the National Surety Com- | pany of New York, visited Plenty- j wood. While in the city he was vis ited by a certain wooden legged law yer ' a crop grabber, a disreputable newspaperman who spreads libels about county officers and 1 takes re fuge behind the skirts of his mother, whose name appears at the mast head of his paper, and others whose names will be given to the public later. They filled the Insurance At torney with a lot of political bunk and he, being a stranger to these parts, fell for most of it. He again returned to Plentywood and lobbyed for his company for the greater part of a month with the end in view of beating the county out of its burglary insurance. Soon his vis-, it to Plentywood began to bear fruit, Rumors were spread tending to d'is credit the County Treasurer and oth er county officers. An obscure news paper was circulated all . over the county at big expense which is sup posed to be paid for by a foreign cor poration interested in beating the county out of its burglary insurance. A local attorney was appointed to represent the county in the prosecu tion of the case against the National Surey Company. Immediately this was done, Mr. Clausen left town with a satisfied smile upon his face. The employment of this attorney was put through by Commissioners French and Iverson after a visit to the office of Lou Onstad, who is re garded as a local informer for Claus en. Parties were held before and after the appointment at which cer tain important individuals were pres ent. This part of the transaction may yet have to be exposed and will result in shattering the reputations of individuals who now pose sanctimoni ously in the public eye. The local attorney was appointed without any authority in law or re quest from the county attorney. The county was to be mulcted for a big fee and the Insurance Company seemed satisfied that their interests would be amply protected. But then, like a bolt from the blue sky, came the letter from the Attor ney General offering the County At torney the assistance of one of his men to collect the claim against the foreign Insurance Company, conspirators knew that the county needed no further assistance.

The Commercial Club of Plentywood was unanimously i in favor of this idea as it would bene ! fit the whole county and every com j munity in the county, as well as giving the stranger an opportunity ] to know where he was going. j A very pleasant ending of the meet 1 ing was had when Dan McKay, who 1 is proprietor of the brick yard at Redstone, gave a splendid talk on the boosting spirit of Commercial Clubs and the good that comes there from. He sjaoke of the Billings Com mercial Club and the things that they had accomplished and the industries and trade they had brought to the town because of their active spirit. Mr. McKay dwelt for some length of time on the need of educational fa cilities for the children and those) i leaving high school. He said that, when the boys and girls of Sheridan county leave for the Montana Normal schools, that they can save two hours time in travel if they attended one \ in Chicago. This was to emphasize the need of such a school in this lo cality and that Plentywood was ideal ly located for the same. Mr. McKay called the attention of the members present to the fact that the road to Ray'mond should be protected by snow fences and kept clear through-! I out the winter for traffic, thus giv ing Plentywood the advantage of two railroads instead of In this (Continued from page One) one. connection he offered the suggestion I of a big bus traveling back and forth to connect the same.

The oil subject was gone i over and Mr. McKay emphasized very 1 i i strongly that he believed? oil underlies j i i the ground of Sheridan county and I | that some public-spirited citizen of j \ | the daring of Gordon Campbell will j : drill a hole, bringing the fluid to the i \ ! ground and add more prosperity to i 1 this part of Montana. The speaker : emphasized that the citizens of this | city and county need not fear the I end of prosperity, as we are only at i the beginning of a growth which will ! only be limited by the efforts of the citizens themselves, At 10:45 a motion for adjournment! was entertained by the chairman and the members left the hall with a de sj re to carry on the work which will still further boost Plentywood toward that goal of being the largest and liveliest city in Northeastern Mon tana.
