WITHHOLD DECISION. Washington, Jan. 12.—Decision as to appointment of a naval court in- quiry into the personal clash at Mat- tice yesterday between the American naval balloonists, Lieuts. Hinton and Farrell, is being withheld pending further reports, Secretary Daniels said today. The secretary added that it was to be deplored that there should have been any personal con- flict. between the young men who “had endured great hardships and set new standards.” Reports to the navy department concerning the balloonists trip and events that have followed have been lamentably meager, the secretary add- of Immigration Camannetti was _re- commended to the senate immigration committee today by Walter W. Lig-, gett, deputy labor commissioner of) North Dakota. He charged that the commissioner had an “obsession” on; the deportation of aliens, so much so! that he practically refused to think of getting immigrant labor into the country, and was bent only on get-; ting aliens out of the country. He; based his charges on versonal experi-; ence he said he had with the com-; missioner. 4 He has been trying to induce the immigration office to call a confer- ence of state and federal immigration; agricultural and labor officials to work, out a program of “‘selective ad- witagion and distribution” of alien la- {members in annual convention here today. High tax rates in the state were to blame for the situation, he said. y Mr. Leimbacher referred to the fact that materials-used in the business of providing -food and lodging had de- creased in- price and that hotels and restaurants of this state are reducing prices. He added, however, that taxes | on a‘ local ‘hotel which he manages have increased’: from $3,800 in 1917 to. $7,700 -in-,1920.. - The six-day, week for hotel, em- | ployes will eventually bring ‘‘a- high- | er grade of intelligence” and “a: purer {Moral tone”'-into the business in | North Dakota, he. said. He is sure that he will win for himself and his associates—much surer than when he got the “56” lease—and by April he is confident the Baker Syndicate will be in the dividend paying class. Two rigs are being shipped from Wichita Falls, and in three weeks should be drilling on leases of the Baker Syndicate. In a shorter time than it takes most companies to organize, Baker Syndicate ex- pees to be to the pay sand and to have wells producing the “liquid gold” that will pay thousands to unit holders. Use the coupon attached below in securing today as large an interest as you can in this real-syndicate with real money-making possibilities. When drilling is started the price of units will be advanced from $100 to $200. Then this opportunity will be gone forever. APPLICATION FOR UNITS.

Irrigation’ began in Texas many years before the lands embraced within its: boundaries became a part of the United States, years before those same lands made up what was .{known as the Lone Star republic, writes James R. Preddy in the Ameri- can Forestry Magazine. ; To bring the time down to a more tangible date, the first irrigation work was done—according to tradition— when the Pueblo Indians coastructed the peculiar ditches about El Paso and the Pecos country, which author- ities of today claim were bullt for irri- gation purposes. Another tradition coming out of the past tells that these ditches. were built by the Yuma In- ward by the Comanches and Apaches, ‘and not by the Pueblos. When Coronado, the roying ex- plorer, opened this country to the ‘Spaniards he found well-worked irri- gation systems among the Indians; this was.in 1540 when he was pushing toward the north, The practice of irrigation was’ continued under the |Franciscan fathers, who constructed thé five mission ditches that. were found near the present city of San Antonio. Even under Mexican rule the work did not stop, and grants by | the Mexican governtient often read | as follows: “In the name of the Mexican na- its corresponding labor of land.” The Novel-Writer.

HASSELQUIST & BORGERT, Fiscal Agents LEWISTOWN, MONTANA “Chip Edwards” delighted a large audience at the Auditorium last night. The clever comedy-drama was per- formed by a cast which handled the amuging situations and dramatic mo- ments in a manner which would do credit to an all-professional ‘group. When the curtain rose it was an- nounced that Slade Taylor would take the part previously assigned to Frank Snyder, who gave it up because of the death of a relative which necessitated his absence from the city during tho period of rehearsals. Migs Bergliot Caspary as ‘The Girl” and Miss Vivian Dolan as “Kitty” won the plaudits of the audience. Miss Caspary’s perfect diction, poise ‘and stage presence added greatly to the pertormance. Miss Dolan’s imperson- ation of a ‘New York shop girl was a distinct feature of the evening, bringing a personal tribute from the audience. R. Sherman Wright as “The Other Man” and Frank Barker, director of the play, as “The Cracks- man,” performed in an accomplished manner. was given in Elks’ hall, which was at- tended by a large crowd. | | | quired. manent business. ed by letter.
