CAPTIVE BRUIN IS HUNTED Animal Is Released. Lodge Holds at. st Pay TrI la Taken and Game Rilled After Successive Volleys. BISMARCK. N. t) Nov. 27. (Spe cial.) The Malteee Cross ranch, near Medori, X. D.. until recently the prop erty, and locale of much of the early Western life of ex-President Theodore Roosevelt, celebrated Its transfer of ownership by one or the most gigantic nature fakPS connected with anything Rooseveltian. A herd of Elks killed a bip. blark bar within a few hundred yards of the site upon which the ex-President first erected his cabin when he came to Medora in th early eighties to o into the cattle-raisinp business. The event had many eye-witnesses, be sides the Elks themselves, there beinr the foreman. John Casper, and four cowboys present at the slaughter, -while the towns people of Medora saxr the Elks bring their trophy into town. Captive Bear Released. The bear hunt was planned by the Klks. and they wheeled into Medora pre pared and singing the war cry of Dickin son Lodge. No 1137. To add a savor o romance and thrill of the chase to the event the bear, caught in the Roughs south of Medora. was turned loose in the afternoon at 4 o'clock. , The Elks feasted and congregated that .night, arose very early at 9 oclock the next morning and followed the trail, which, when picked up. led directly to the Roosevelt ranch, papers in transfer for which ground, before pre-empted of nature fakes, bad been filed in Medora two days before. Ballets Riddle Brain. Bruin was followed along the banks of the t.ittle Missouri River to the top of a hill upon which the famous cabin , once rested, and there was shot by suc cessive -volleys from th huntsmen. I The Mcklnson Elks will -devour the bear at their first anniversary celebra tion, December 10. The pelt will be sent to Colonel Roosevelt. APPLE HIS THEME BALLINGER OPENS LAND Montana Indian Reservation Will Be Csed by Whites. TVASHINOTON". Nov. 27. About 1. 000.000 acres of land in Eastern Montana, heretofore withdrawn for the purpose of making allotments to the Rocky Boy band of Chippewa Indians, has been re stored to settlement and entry by Secre- . , ' ... n r a within thft restorer! I area, and that part not spoken for will not be subject to entry prior to March. 1 next. Sixty per cent or more of this land Is embraced within pending entries 'or se lections and of the remainder a consid erable portion is not susceptible to cul tivation. Arrangements for the allotments to the Rocky Boy band contemplate their loca tion on a portion of the Blackfoot Reser vation. There are about 150 members of the band, who at times have been very troublesome, and their proposed Uscttlement on the land just restored to entry has been strongly opposed by the citizens of Montana. The restoration is made subject to the selection and perfection of applications for allotments of certain members of tl Turtle Mountain band of Indians, whicl? is understood to be satisfactory to the settlers.

Methods That Have Made Hood River Successful Can Bo Fol lowed by Others Inspectors Alone jVot Enough. At the third meeting of the T. M. C. A. Apple Culture Club last night at the T. M. C. A., II. M. Williamson, secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, in his address on the growth of the apple raising Industry In Oregon and its con dition in different parts of the state spoke of tho great need of creating among Willamette Valley people senti ment in favor of cutting out old and diseased fruit trees, both in the city and country, and of bettering conditions gen erally in regard to fruit raising. The as sembly room was filled to overflowing. Mr. Williamson told of the impression made upon -the minds of visitors from the Eastern States who come here look ing for the orchards that raise the ap ples they have heard so much about and find only old and decaying trees. "Thou sands of persons are turned away from the state." said Mr. Williamson, "be cause they, do not find in the Willamette Valley what they are looking for in the way of orchards. We must cleanse our orchards and the only way to do it is to create favorable sentiment among the people. Inspectors can never accomplish the work alone." History of Industry Reviewed, The soeaker gave a brief history of the apple industry in Oregon and told of existing conditions in different parts of the stste. He said in part: "Apples were first grown on the Coast by missionaries and homeseekens, who brought seeds across the plains. Hen derson. a man living in Iowa, was the first to foresee a great industry in fruit growing in this stats. He brought graft ed trees of several varieties across the plains in 1847 and planted them near Mil waukie. "In 1S50 he sold his first box of stand ard varieties in Portland at a dollar per apple, and three or four year later he sold 80 boxes in San Francisco at $1 a pound. Within 10 years from this time there were enough apples grown in Ore gon to furnish every person on the Pa cific Coast with 50 bushels every yeaf. -"There was no outlet for these large quantities of fruit and the result was the orchards were neglected and used for pastures and meadows. The railroads furnished an outlet after a few years, but the apples had decreased in quantity and quality through neglect, and for the last 20 years apple crops throughout the Valley have amounted to little. "There were as many apples grown in tho Valley 15 years ago as there are to day, and the crop since 1SS5 has faTlen off one-half. Previous neglect and the fact that railroads have brought pests have served to injure the crops. The only good crops of today come from orchards s?t out within the last 20 years and re ceiving good care. "Come persons who think good apples cannot be raised in the Willamette Valley forget about the fine fruit -that was raised 50 years ago. Interest Recently Revived. "The apple Industry was revived a few years ago by the efforts of Dr. J. R. Cardwell. Professor Lake, of Corvallis. and a few others. The State Horticultural Society was organised and it secured the enactment of laws which made possible the revival of the fruitgrowing industry. It was a hard struggle. "The people had to be educated and it was a hard Job. Fifteen years ago not more than five persons would have at tended a meeting like this tonight. In terest was finally revived about four years ago and now the work of restora tion is taking great strides. "The apple-growing industry in the Rogue River Valley was started by J. H. Stuart. In the Hood River a small number of men of little means, headed by E. L. Smith, by using correct methods built up the most successful apple-raising industry in the country, and organized the Applegrowers' Union. Hood River has shown the way and ther districts In the state are following. The Hood River crop has established the Oregon apple as the standard of excellence throughout the world today. "We can raise good apples in any part of Oregon wlfh the right depth of soil and by using correct methods. In the Willamette Valley, however, there are peculiar conditions to overcome. The old neglected orchards and trees must all be cut down and now trees planted. The old trees cannot be revived properly by spraying. "Any number of inspectors cannot cleanse the country and the cities and villages of the old and diseased trees. We must have favorable public senti ment. In Portland there are 40,000 pieces of property bearing fruit and 400 inspec tors could not properly look after them." STATE IS 111 THROES Alabama to Vote on Drastic Liquor Law.

Bill Prohibits Manufacture, Sale or Keeping for Sale Alcoholic or Malt Beverages, and Bitter Campaign. Has Been Waged. MONTGOMERY:. Ala., Nov. S7. Vot ers of Alabama will decide Monday whether they will make prohibition and sale or manufacture of Intoxicat ing liquors a part of the organic law of the state. The question of whether the state constitution Is to be thus amended was submitted at a special session of the State Legislature called by Governor Comer last August. That session was one of the most bitter in the history of the commonwealth, and the cam paign which followed and which closed tonight was no more peaceful. An amendment which would forever bar liquor from the state U the crown ing feature of the most drastic anti liquor legislation ever introduced in any state. The biil prohibits the manufacture, sale and keeping for sale of alcoholic and malt HquorB and other intoxicat ing liquors and beverages, with the ex ception that alcohol may be sold for medical, scientific and mechanical pur poses and wine for sacrament purposes under such regulations as the Legisla ture may prescribe. Another provision would give to the Legislature the power to prohibit citizens from keeping liquor in their homes. This is put forth to meet the recent Supreme Court ruling that liquor is a commodity which can be possessed and stored where and in what quantities its owner may see fit, so long as he does not offer it for sale. The fight during the campaign Just closed has been marked by more bit terness than has attended any other political issue in years. Both United States Senators and five Congressmen are opposing the amendment. Gov ernor Comer, Lieutenant - Governor i SISKIYOU IS DRY BY 165 Sixty Saloons Put Out of Business by Referendum Vote.

President Gompers and Secretary Morrison saw the President today for the first time since they were sentenced for contempt. Their call had nothing to do with the criminal proceedings, but was for the purpose of presenting to the President A. H. Gill and J. B, Clines, two labor members of the British House of Par liament, who were fraternal delegates to the recent convention of the Ameri can Federation of Labor at Toronto, and James O'Connell, vice-president of the American Federation of Labor. With Mr. Gompers also were San tiago Iglesias and Abraham Penna, Porto Rican delegates to the American Federation. It was arranged that the labor lead ers should be received by the President Monday morning, when they will urge that in the amendment of the anti trust law there shall be a provision exempting labor unions from classifica tion as trusts. Tho President believes that labor un ions in times of strikes can be amply dealt with by means of the injunction. j2 COULD BE NICER? g OF WOMEN'S ONYX M3 Pure Thread Silk Hoss, i?pr?
