C. O. Wright, who handled the-.grain here last, year, stated to the club the advan The Rev. Charles Edwin Burdette, brother of “Bob'’ Burdette, the hum orist; has been vindicated after thirty years of any blame in connection with ^ to the raiser a s well w i ' t h e com- the disappearance of $3,500 from reg: muntty of a farmers' elevator. Mr. istered letter package sent out by the Peori?- postofllce, of which he w/is reg istry clerk. The disappearance of the money had been a cloud ort Burdette’s life in his home town,- and turned many of his old friends'a'galnst him. The money had been put in 12 reg istered letters by the late John Com stock. The evidence was all against young Burdette and after the first In vestigation Comstock demanded that Gen. D. W. Magee, then postmaster at Peoria, who died last year, discharge the registry clerk. Believed Honest by Postmaster. Comstock carried the matter to W ashington and an inspector came down from Chicago to make a full re port. He recommended that Burdette be discharged, but the postmaster re fused to discharge him, and Burdette continued as registry clerk. Burdette was working' to get money to study for the ministry. A few years after the' money was missed-he left the postoffice and went to Bostdji university, then to Newton academy, arid when he was ordained as a min ister was assigned to a missionary in' Asam, India. He now has a pastorate at Springfield, Mass. All this time he pray that in some way the mystery’ of the missing money might be-elearc'd up for his own vindication. M issing H o n ey Found. Into the repair shop at San Francis co a few days ago an old battered sack was sent to be patched. It was a veteran and to repair it meant prac tically to make a new sack. The first man to inspect the sack decided it needed a new bottom and, with a knife, he ripped the leather bottom off. i Then he-saw above it a big’lnan'llri envelope, caught by the corners, which served practically as a false bottom. He opened the envelope and found It to contain the 12 Comstock letters and the missing $3,500, which had been wandering about the country for 30 years. When the finding of the money was reported, to the Peoria postoffice friends telegraphed to the Rev. Mr. Burdette that the cloud hanging over him had been dispelled.—Anaconda Standard. Wright has had seven years' experience infthat line of work, and discussed the' natter in a thorough and able man ner, convincing to all. The matter was Iniil over until Saturday, March 4th, at 2 B’clock. In the meantime a commit ted consisting of C. O. Wright, Earl Grilnes and W. B. Moore was appointed tcKbotify everybody of the meeting and especially those who were likely to be Interested and take stock in the or ganization. Mr. Wright’s idea was to organize a stock company of about $2j>,000 and to lim it the number of shares to be held by each individual. Hri. read the articles of agreement and tb\j*by-lawR, conforming with the alws of 'the state of Montana governing a coijroration of that kind. The Journal is ,very much in hopes that everybody •yviif'turn out and boost this matter, as it is now learned by the Commercial Club‘that we shipped more grain than or two other poiritsfltx-Custer coun hat had elevators last year, and wi'^pan increased acreage that will be planted this year it will take an eleva- tor,-of good sized capacity to handle thea[ rain. This paper has no hesitancy /ri -endorsing any statement made by Mr; Wright. The gentleman has lived with us for the last six months, and hah proven himself » competent and )papat)le grain man, and an upright and honfitst gentleman, -one who gave satis- 'raQ.tifm to everone who had any deal- irip) yith him last year.

In the primary room we register two new scholars in the first garde, Alta Jacobson and Mary Coonc, besides the return of two boys who have been out this winter, Robert Ryan and Ralph Eno. Gerties Moore expects to return to school in a short time. The daily spelling contest in the primary room between the second, third and fourth grade has been inter esting this last week. The second grade has carried off the honors so far, with one exception, when they were beaten by the fourth grade at a close margin of one-fifth per cent. The primary room is collecting their pennies for some window boxes of tu lips, hyacinths and narcissus for Eas ter. They are also planning on some gold fish in a few weeks.

Jones, vice-president for Montana of the Northwest Live Stock associa tion, in which he represents the beef cattle interests, declared in an inter view while In Spokane that he has not seen a tim e in the last 20 years when western cattle were as scarce as they are today. \It is about time that the stock- growers and farmers Jn-.the northwest ern and Pacific states started in ' to raise more cattle,” he added. \We* are- getting better prices for our stock at hom e than at the Chicago stockyards. This proves that the western coun try is shorter on beef cattle than any other district. Our growers should take advantage of this peculiar state of affairs. \I can see no good reason why the farmers in Washington, bregon, Idaho and Montana should pass up the cat tle business. Of course, it requires money to go into the industry on a large scale, but every’ farmer in the ■western country should raiBe a few head, at least. That would relieve the shortage and bring more money into the country’. No wis the- time to raise ctfttle.” 0 Mr. Jones, who is a member of the firm of Jones & Bales, operating in the Big Hole basin, announced that His company will exhibit 100 head of hay- fed steers from the basin country at the-Northwest Fat Live Stock show,In Portland, Ore.,-March 20 to 22, also- showing thq, cattle In, the East Spo kane yards a week^eariier.^- . ,'”Ohr cattle have'riever fed on any thing , but wild-, .hay}-which .is'grown :on .our 6,40O-acre ranch under irriga tio n ,” he -addeclj\, ^‘It jis-'all'.wlld hay.

The gentloman stated that from what plowing he had seen in the vicinity of Ismay it was a wonder that any of them got their seed back. He stated that it Is a waste of money and time for anyone to under take to farm, not oniy-in this country, but in any country, without preparing a thorough seed-bed. He stated that the ground should be, rolled, disced and re-disced, and then gne over twico with a fine tooth harrow Afterwards the grain to be drilled in, then about he time that the grain begins to sprout the ground should be re-harrowed again. He says that onyone who will follow the above will make a crop in ‘eastern Montana nine year^but of tbtiT A Severe Critic. To the Editor of the Standard: , If the senators and re^reqetnatives of the Montana legislature cyyp a re flection of the intelligence of the elec torate, how do we Montanans compare with the Oregon electors? Among the fish and game laws, did a bill pass authorizing the rod and gun clubs to brand the fish and ducks? When the legislators adjourns will the governor proclaim a day of thanksgiving for the merciful relief from the periodical calamity? Will the clerkB, stenogra phers and other wards receive pen sions after adjournment? Yours, a porpiexed citizen, JOHN MARTIN, Sr. Lombard, Feb. 19. REPRESENTATION OF MONTANA COUNTIES.
