the state commissions have been
working according to their own
lights rather than in the systematic
fashion desired by Mr. Roosevelt.
They were considered by the dele
gates here, by reason of their lack
of central control, as particularly
open to the persuasions of the state
control faction, of which J. J Hill
is a leader.
By tonight's coup Mr. Pinchot is
said to have played masterly politics
in behalf of the national control peo
ple, of whom he is considered to be
field commander.
According to present plans the
friends of national control of public
resources will proceed as if there
had never been a thought of state
control.
The program calls for addresses
by President Taft tomorrow and
Colonel Roosevelt Tuesday. James
Hill, who is a leader of the states'
rights people, and Senator Bever
idge will address the convention
Wednesday. Gifford Pinchot, for
mer national forester, and presiddnt
of the National Conservation associ
ation, does not speak until the last
day. Henry S. Graves, the present
chief forester, will talk on 'The
Forest and Nation" Thursday.
Two thousand delegates is the es
timate of the local committee. The
fact that the president and Colonel
Roosevelt will be among the speak
ers and that the state fair begins to
morrow is expected to add other
thousands to the crowd. The ses
sions will be held in the Auditorium,
which can seat 10.000 persors.
President Taft will deliver the
principal speech tomorrow. He will
be followed by Senator Knute Nel
son of Minnesota, who is chairman
of the senate committee on public
lands, as well as head of the Ballin
ger investigation committee.
In the afternoon there will be a
conference of governors of states,
and addresses by such of them as
desire to be heard.
Night sessions arc on the program
for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day.
TRAFFIC HEAVY IN POSTCARDS
Northern Pacific Issues A Series
Of Attractive Cards
The Northern Pacific has put out
this summer a new and attractive ser
ies of souvenir postcards which are
distributed to its patrons ready stamp
e I for mailing. A set of twelve stamp
ed cards is sold for 25c, the cards de
picting different scenes, some of cities,
some of farm views, irrigation pro
jects, Yellowstone, et cetera.
The Government Reclamation Pro
ject at Huntley, the Gallatin and Bit
ter Root valleys, and the cities of
Helena, Billings and Butte are all rep
resented by attractive cards setting
forth the agricultural and industrial
possibilities of the state. Other cards
show the cities of Portland, Seattle,
Taccm,, Spokane, Grand Canyon in
Yellowstone Park, Old Faithful Inn,
et cetera.
This attractive form of advertising
is bound to do the Northern Pacific a
vast amount of good, since these cards
are scattered to the four quarters of
the earth by those who mail them to
friends telling of their experiences on
the trip "Along the Scenic Highway
Through the Land of Fortune." This
latter phrase is a slogan which the
Northern Pacific adopted something
over a year ago and uses in connection
with all of its advertising matter. That
it is eminently fitting is apparent at
once, since the "Land of Fortune" is
used to designate every mile of the
territory from the head of the Lakes to
the Pacific Ocean, the richest and most
productive country the sun shines
upon.
Uniform Demurrage Rules
A number of the commercial bodies
throughout the state have urged upon
t ie State Railroad Commission the de
sirabilit=" adopting what is ki:own
as the "Uniform Code of Demurrage 1
Rules" applicable alike on all state I
and interstate shipments. Under the
proposed code all commodities are I
allowed 48 hours free time for loading E
or unloading, whereas our present I
plan in Montana allows 72 hours for I
the unloading af lumber, stulls, lag
IS ging, coal, coke, lime, lime rock anc
bulk precipitates. The new rules,
S however, provide an "average plan"
whereby time gained on one car may
be applied on another as an off-set,
it thus averaging the detention for a
period of thirty days, and it is thought
e by some that the uniform code is pre
ferable to the present rules for this
and other reasons.
This Commission obtained the ex
tended free time on lumber, etc., as
above, after much controversy and
dealings with carrier companies, and
before we could feel warranted in
- authorizing its cancellation, we must
know that the people of the state fully
understand and desire the adoption of
the proposed code. Therefore, to de
1 termine this question, it has been de
cided to hold a public hearing in the
House Chamber, Capitol Building,
Helena, at 10 o'clock, A. M., Sept. 7,
1910, to which the public is invited
and will be given an opportunity to be
heard either for or against the sug
gested change. Copy of the proposed
schedule and rules may be had on ap
plication to this office at Helena.
Linotype Beer Orders
The bartender filled the pails, then
carefully examined the pieces of lead
and tossed them into separate com
partments where were already many
like them. The boy meantime walked
out with the foaming pails. He had
not said one word. This mystifying
transaction was too much for a man
who was taking his nightcap and he
demanded an explanation.
"Oh, " said the bartender, "there's
nothing mysterious about that. I was
merely filling orders for drinks."
"Filling orders for drinks?" re
peated the still mystified stranger.
"Sure, " said the bartender.
"Those pieces of lead were my orders.
They were cast by linotype operators
on the newspapers and each order
bears the name of the operator who
made it. I simply sort them out and
at the end of the week send them back
by the boy who takes the drinks. They
are both bill and receipt. I get my
money promptly and the operators
know that our accounts are straight.'"

THE FAIR OPENS
NEXT MONDAY
Get Your Exhibits Ready for the Big Annual
Demonstration of County's Resources.
A visit to the office of Secretary
Goulding 'of the Fair Association
shows that entries are coming in
fast for the big fair next week,
Sept. 12, 13 and 14. The county
agriculturists will be present in
force.
Several new attractions have late
ly been secured. One of the princi
pal one of these will be Kitty Lo
mond, the "'Guideless Wonder"
horse, seen here before. She will
go an exhibition mile each day, and
on one occasion will be rld !en by a
trained dog.
Prof. Francis Thayer, the noted
balloonist, known far and wide as
"The King of the Clouds" will give
an ascension on Merrill Avenue each
day. Various vaudeville features
are also in sight.
Unusual interest is being taken in
the ladies' relay race. Already four
entries have been sent to the secre
tary, they being those of Mrs. Dan
Wise, Mrs. Miles Brown and two In
dian girls. This feature alone will
be worth going a long distance to
see. The fine saddle and bridle
which will be given to the winner
by the Scheffer and Rossum compa
ny of St. Paul are now on display at
the Bee Hive.
Glendive business men have been
extremely liberal this year in help
ing out the big county fair. Messrs.
Hagan, Hollecker and Berry, the
committee appointed, report a total
collection of between $1,600 and
$1,700 to date. That is going some
to say the least.
An old and popular feature that
will be in evidence again this year
will be a goodly contingent from
the Poplar Indians. They will have
their usual races, games, etc., and
sell their trinkets to the visitors.
Strangers always take unusual inte
rest in their encampment.
While nothing as yet is absolutely
certain about the speed events, as
to the horses that will be here, it
seems certain that all entries will be I
well filled if weather conditions are
at all favorable. Andrew Larson
will preside again as starter, but the
judges have not yet been decided
upon.
Remember that all entries, agri
cultural and otherwise, will close at
10 a. m., on the opening clay, Sept.
12, Bring in your fancy stock and
farm produce and take an enjoyable
vacation for three days. It will open
your eyes to the growing wealth of
this big county.
The Cow and the Moon
A brand new musical extravaganza,
"The Cow and the Moon" is announc
ed for presentation on Monday, Sept.
19, at Glendive Opera House. It is
Chas. A. Sellon's new vehicle for
stardom, and it is said he is making
a bigger hit in it than he did even in
"The Cat and the Fiddle," which
always proved so amusing when it was
shown here in the past seasons; in
fact it is announced as the latter's
companion piece the continuation of the
characters in new scenes, new adven
tures and experiences is proving quite
popular.
Among the many scenes and effects
Mr. Sellon introduces two new start
lers, the interior of a Pullman Palace
Sleeping car, an exact duplicate of
one of the latest models, with the en
tire company in transit across the
continent to the land of the Moon.
Another thriller is the approaching
locomotive, commencing with a tiny
speck of light in the distance and
gradually approaching, little by little,
until the huge hulk of a giant engine
appears and stops at the footlights.
The grinding of the wheels and the
brakes, hissing of the steam and the
clanging of the bell is said to be most
realistic.
Many other novelties in surprising
scenic effects furnish unusual surround
ings to the prettily gowned girls who
interpret the clever music by Carlton
Lee Colby. A company of forty is
promised.
