Mr.. CANNON'S JOKE.

Inasmuch as the state legislature
spent sixty days in regular session
without making any serious effort to
enact any railroad legislation, the
resolution introduced by Represent
ative Cannon of this county was no
doubt intended as joke. The reso-
luton was as follows
ITO His EXcellency, the Governor:
We, the members of the Eighth legis-
latiye assembly, believing that condi-
tons in this state demand railway
commission. as commended in your
message to the joint assembly Janu-
AIRY s, 1908. earnestly request that
Won extend the powers of this body
so that railway commission bill
may be passed at this special SEES
sion"
This prompt recognition of the gov
ernor's recommendation, made in his
message on January s, must be very
gratifying to Governor Toole. AS a
matter of fact the recommendation
made by Governor Toole in his mes
sage were almost entirely ignored
and the proposal to take up such an
important subject at the special SEES
sion could hardly be regarded seri-
ouSly.
The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1903-05-29
LET'S CELEBRATE BIG.

Merchants and citizens alike are
interested in the proper observation
of the Fourth Of July in Kalispell
this year and should not fail to be
represented at the mass meeting
Monday night, when committees will
be appointed to carry out the plans
adopted by the assemblage.
Just at this particular time pat
riotsm is rampant. The recent trip
through the northwest, his hospita-
BILE and rousing welcome every
where and his thorough appreciation
Of the great west arouse in one and
all a great desire to exploit the true
pride Of American citizens. True,
kalispell saw the president by proxy
only, but those proxies, of whom
there were a great many at Spokane,
and Butte and Helena, retailed lurid
desc,.l tons Of the great man and
the great receptions accorded him.
This nearness of the nations chief
mingled with the sad and fond
memories of Memorial day, should
make the hearts of the people ripe
for the grandest celebration of the
nations birthday ever known in the
history of Flathead county.
The friends and patrons Of the city
will visit here by hundreds, even
thousands, if proper inducements be
held out and sufficient entertainment
afforded them on Independence day.
1t is stated the canvassing COM
mittee have already been pledged
nearly $1,000, if it takes $4,000, to
make the good time our country
cousins expect. by all means raise it.
Everything should be free to the
people. no charge for the patriotic
amusements, no charge for the
sights. For this one day Kalispell
should tender the keys of the city
to all visitors and with it welcome
which will cement the friendship of
the county.
All who think and feel this way
should attic I'd the mass meeting
Monday night. and exchange views
and advise as to the manifold de-
mands of the occasion.
The Bee has offered to do its pro-
portion by providing the committee
with all the posters they may need
to advertise the event and will prom
Use a good job, too.

Memorial Day.

Do We hear the tramping of feet to-
day?
IT'S the veteran army, SCARED and
gray,
Gathering together, once more to
raise
Songs of thankfulness, songs OF
praise,
Claiming from all glad smile and
tender tear,
A warm hand clasp, kindly word OF
cheer.
And smiles and tears are hallowed
as we breathe,
The name of loved ones, DER the
flowers we wreathe;
For many a comrade, at the Lord 5
command,
Has marched up higher, to the better
land;
Bravely they fought for freedom and
their right;
Their flag, their country. with their
manhood's might.
And honor to the women left alone,
Widows and orphans and desolate
home
Many tears did rise in each bright
eye,
AS they babe their loved ones a long
goodbye;
But with steady hand and dauntless
eye,
They sent them to fight for free
donor die.
God hasten the time when warfare
shall cease,
When nations unite in universal
peace,
When not the might, but the right
shall be
The law of all peoples on land and
sea-
