Missouri Democracy has a job
lot of views concerning the man
ner in which party nominations
should be made. For instance,
down hore in the Thirteenth Con-

way of nominating a candidate for
Congress. When it was recently
proposed to Chairman Seibert, Of
tho Democratic State Committee,
to nominate the party's candidate
for United States Senator by a
direct primary, he rejected the
plan as not being expedicnt to the
best interests of the Democracy. II
is the question Of expendiency to
ring interests which regulates and
c.nirOls the manner of making
Democratic nominations, it seems.

STATE LAW IS TO BE TESTED
Statute Giving Montana First Option
on Purchasing County Bonds
!, Placed Under Fire.
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

especial TO inter MOuntaln.)
Helena, June 25-The board of state
land commissioners yesterday had be-
fore 1t a number of communications in
regard to the law giving the state the
first option of purchasing city, county
and school district bonds at not less
khan five per cent. interest.
A number of counties and school dis
tricts have such bonds for sale. but OBJ
private bidders would bid par at a lower
rate but for the states option.
AS it is private parties will not bid, as
this option stands in the way. Thus the
bond issues authorized are drug on the
market.
The law will probably be tested by the
Flathead county commissioners, as they
accepted a bid for $50, 900 of bonds with
out giving the state the first option.
The state treasurer was not notified of
the issue and was yesterday instructed
by the state board to advise the Flat
head commissioners to bring test suit
The board waived it's option to buy
100000 refunding bonds issued by Madi-
son county, which sold without being
offered to the. state first.
A proposed issue of $4,000 bonds by
Billings and $4,000 by Big Timber are
held up awaiting the states action. Big
Timber has an offer of $500 premium on
its four per cent bonds, but the law
prevents it's acceptance.
The board instructed the state treas
urer to buy $4,000 Of Kenwood school
bonds at five per cent and $4,000 of HAM
ilton school bonds at six per cent The
state has $780, 600 lying idle in permanent
funds.
The board has submitted to the state
land register a long list Of persons who
are delinquent in the payment of rent
or purchase price on state land, and in
structed him to send a notice to each
one that if the arrears are not paid bv
Aug. l bondsmen will be called on to pay
or the lease will be cancelled. In that
case the purchasers. contracts will be
cancelled and the purchaser compelled
to vacate. The amount of the delin-
quency aggregates over $4,000.
