Volume 2. Ismay, M ontana, Friday, M a y 19, 1911. Number 9 Declared Guilty. .On Saturday morning last, the jury in the John F. Deitz case brought in a verdict of “ guilty” against Dietz, for the murder of Deputy Harp on Oct. 8, 1910, during the siege maintained on the Dietz farm at Cameron Dam, Wis. Mrs. Deitz and Leslie, however, were found not guilty. John Deitz was then sentenced to life imprisonment in the penitentiary, with the date—Oct. 8th—of each year to be spent in solitary confinement. Deitz immediately asked for a new trial and in answer Judge Reid said: “ Because you have no attorney I really don’t know what to do with you. I think, however, in view of the mo tion, the supreme court could pass first upon the evidence and I shall deny the motion and allow you ten days to pre pare your motion.” After Deitz’ motion for a new trial had been made and denied, Judge Reid asked him if he had anything to say why sentence should not be pronounc ed. Deitz at once launched into a tirade against the lumber trust, rais- his voice in uncontrollable anger.

Preaching service, 8:00 p. m. Rev. Frank Babcock, who comes to us directly from the Chicago Theolog ical Seminary, has taken up his work here as Pastor, and will appear for the first time in the Ismay pulpit on Sunday evening next. Rev. Babcock comes here with excellent training and native ability, and will devote all of his time to his parish, residing in Ismay and preaching in Westmore and at some other points in addition to Ismay. This, I believe, is the first time Is may has had a regular resident pas tor, who was free to give all of his time to his work. It is exactly what Ismay has needed, and flow I trust, all will join hands with Bro. Babcock and, with might and main, work for the upbuilding of the Kingdom of Christ in this community. Note the change to an evening ser vice. W e believe it will prove a more satisfactory hour than the morning. The Sunday School hour will remain the same as usual. Nekt Sunday Rev. Babcock will preach at WeStmore in the moxming. E. H. Johnson, Ex-Minister.

Agricultural College, the so-called dry climate is a god-send to Montana, and he gives his reasons for holding such an opinion, says the Judith Gap Journal. Pres. Worst delivered an address at the Northwestern Develop ment league meeting in Helena last week and he discussed the question of rainfall in the northwestern states. “ Montana is especially fortunate, said Pres. Worst, “ in having what is called a dry climate. It makes the farmer cultivate his land properly and by being forced to do that, he gets the' maximum of results. But there is a larger reason why Montana is fortu nate with a light rainfall, or what might be termed a minimum rainfall. “ In those states where there is a lai’ge precipitation, the valuable land is always damaged to an extent by the soil being washed off in the freshets. Much of the fertility is lost by this washing. Here, there is nothing of that character to take the nutritive elements from the soil, those elements on which the plant thrives. In Mon tana, if the farmer cultivates his land properly, he will get a profitable yield 99 times out of 100. But in those in which the precipitation is very heavy, the crop is often damaged by rains, its cultivation hindered at a time when it is most needed, and later, when the grain is developing, a sweeping rain storm often results in heavy loss to the crop. When all these things are considered, Montana farmers have much to be thankful for, that they are blessed with a chance for dry-farming/ Many Homesteads Taken? While the Miles City land office has done no record breaking business as yet this year, the distribution of the public lands through that agenby has been fairly active, resulting in a total of 121,242.81 acres being transferred from the public domain to private use during the quarter ending March 31, and 78,275.36 ucres during the month of April; a total of say 200,000 acres acquired for private uses during the four months. In addition to this the the Northern Pacific railway company made lieu selections amounting to 108,911.33 acres, thus* further dimin ishing the public domain in this land district, yet these lands will all ulti mately pass into the hands of settlers. — Yellowstone Journal. ]515re]inia[5r5I5f5l5ig][5^I5f5[^f3]l5ifH)I5f55»51^{^En5t5i515^ .
