It was or- ganized for the purpose of creat- ing a friendly competition be- tween the Indians in the raising of farm products, stock, etc. In the racing, nothing but the stock owned by the Indians will be permitted to enter. We are glad to have our friends come and see us and see what we are trying to do on our farms. All premiums will be paid in cash from the gate receipts. No gambling will be allowed and no liquor under any circumstancei will be tolerated at the fair. locate the fire and in a remarkab- le short space of time members of the company were in the basement removing the charred boxes which had been blazinit a minutes before. This fire furnished an oppor: tunity for the demonstration of the value of the chemical engine purchased about one year ago. Mr. Coger says that had it not been for the engine he is satisfied that the building would have burned. A chemical engine may not be the apparatus for fighting an outside fire but when it coine . , to extinguishing fire on the interior of a building its. worth cannot be estimated. In view of the conditions of the streets the boys made a remarkable run and its the opinion of the 'Tribune that there is not a town in Montana that has a more determined fire com- pany than Hardin has and the organization should be encourag- ed and appreciated. The origin of the blaze is unknown. Painful Accident While decending the basement stairway yesterday evening Mrs. J. W. Johnston lost her balance, falling the entire length of the flight of stairs and badly sprain- ed her ankle and the muscels of her neck. About a year ago Mrs. John- ston sprained an ankle which has since given her a great deal of trouble and the present fall is due to this injured member. Dr. Richards was immediately summoned and did what he could for her injuries, however, she is confined to her room and will doubtless be forced to nurse a lame shoulder for some little time. Mrs. Johnston had plan- ned on leaving Hardin Monday morning for an extended trip through the east and the acci- dent is not only painful but will foace her to abandon her trip. Will Hold Mass Fr.

Rouseau, Hard in, Mont. The largest Republican county convention ever held in Yellow- stone county assembled at ti - e Coliseum rink in Billings on'Mon- I day and selected the nominees for state senator, representative and the various county office; named delegate and delegates at large to the state convention and celected a county central com- mittee. Out of the 98 delegates elected at the primaries from the various precincts 95 were pres- ent at the convention. Chris Yegen, chairman of the county central committee, called the convention to order at ten o'olock and a, temporary organ- ization was perfected with Har- ry L. Wilson chairman who was later made permanent Chairman of the convention. After the appointment of the , various committees, adjournment was taken till 2 p. m., at which time a further recess was de- clared by popular consent, ar.d the convention re -assembled at 3 o'clock and continued in SE 3- sion till 6 :45 when adjournmeot was taken. There were contests for stE.',e senator, county commission -r and county attorney, 9.nd in each case, following the convention choice, the nomination was made unanimous. The several con- tests were fought out in a fair and friendly manner, the senti- ment. of the delegation through- out was that whatever the out- come was, the ticket named should receive the united sup- port of the entire Republican party. On motion of J. B. Annin of Columbus the chair appointed the following committees: Resolutions—O. F. Goddard, chairman; J. A. Gilluly. W. F. Sylvester. F. S. Strip and G. W. Stoddard. Credentials—R. E. Shepherd, chairman; M. A. Jacobs, Chas. Flemming, Fred B. Gladden and H. B. Dunn. Permanent Organization — B. G. Brockway, chairman; Austin North, George Hedges, S. E. Dove and H. Kuschke. After announcing the meeting \places of the committees the con- vention was adjourned till after- noon. On calling the meeting to or- der after the dinrer recess R. E. Shepherd submitted a report at- testing to the credentials of the various delegates and alternates. The report was unanimously adopted. For the committee on perma- nent organization. B. G. Brock- way presented a report recom- mending that the temporary or- ganization be made permanant; that county officers be nominated; that delegates and alternates be named to state convention. and that a county central com- mittee be named. The report was unamiously adopted. The report of 0. F. doddard on resolutions provoked much controversy. The clause approv- ing the actions of our national representatives objected to, Car- ter being the issue. The clause was finally struck out and the report was adopted. The contests on the county ticket were between Chas. Tay- lor: J. H. Nibbie and Wiliam Galleger for county attorney,and C. C. Sanderson, J. W. Day, and M. W. Cramer for commissioner. Tailor and Sanderson were the successful candidates. Following is the county line-up: County Treasurer ---Ira L. Whit- ney. Couuty Clerk—A Bruce Ren- wick. Sheriff ---John C. Orrick. Clerk of District Court ---Lorin T. Jones. Attorney ---Charles A. Taylor. County Commissioner—C. C. Sanderson, Canyon Creek. Assessor—A. P. Smith. Superintendent of Schools --- Sara A. Morse. Surveyor—B. C. Lillis. Auditor ---Joseph Sleeper. Coroner—G. Herman Smith. Senator—M. J. Lamb. Representative ---C. S. Bell. A. L. Mitchell, D. A. Kamp and Fred B. Gladden as dele- gates from Hardin, and Waltar Hammer as delegate from Fos- ter were in attendance at the Re. publican convention Monday at Billings. Johnston Named as Big Horn Delegate Governor Norris has named J. W. Johnston as the man to represent the Big Horn valley at the dry farming congress which is soon to convene at Spokane, Washington. Mr. Johnston will make a good delegate. He has lived here since the birth of dry farming and has always taken a great deal of interest in the movement. Secures Reduced Rate V. B. McComb, whom Govern- or Norris named as a delegate to attend the Irrigation Convention at Pueblo, Colorado, has been looking up the question of rates for the delegates and has found that the Burlington has made some handsome (?) inducements in that respect. The fare on a special ticket from Billings and return is 37.50. To get this rate one would have to go to Billings or Sheridan. The fare and a privelege to stop where desired from Hardin to Pueblo and return is 43.00. For one to take advantage of this special rate they would have to pay fare to Billings and then a hotel bill making their expense as great as to pay straight fare from here. It the Burlington railway com- pany wants to build up and settle up a country they should learn two things at least. One Ts when they make a reduced rate it should be sufficiently large that one would not have to use a pencil to ascertain the difference between the special rate and the regular fare and the other is to learn the men residing at towns like Hardin are worthy of just as much consideration as tiillings men. As far as rates are concern- ed Hardin isn't on the map. When Hardin becomes a city and the Big Horn valley the hest developed valley in the state we will all be consious that we are not indebted to the Burlington company.
