"A good many cities and to

"A good many cities and towns have
a business mems association, one of
the objects being to protect the mer-
chant from fake advertising schemes,
with which the country has been flood
ed for a number of years. There has
been too much of this sort of thing,
always to the detrimcnt of the local
newspapers. 1t is a common occur
renee for some slick schemer to come
along and make dicker with some
church or lodge to get out some kind of
a pamphlet, and pay for it with adj
vertising." OF course, such advertis-
ing does no one any good, and yet a
merchant dislikes to turn down an or
ganization from which he receives a
certain amount of trade. Officials who
make such deals with outsiders should
stop and consider that it is a reflection
on their local newspapers, as we'll as
an uncalled for burden on the mer-
chants, while the profit in the affair is
taken away by the fakir.

Matters Worth Reading Which Have
Recently Happened, Compiled in a
Condensed Form.

vened at Helena this week.
Walter Jackson, who murdered

ago is sentenced to hang October 10.
An attempt was made last week to
wreck the Bitter Root flyer near Stew
ensville, by placing ties on the track.
Work was commenced on the new
court house at Billings this week.
The structure will cost about SIS, 200.
A 20 foot vein of coal has been located
near Monida. Experts clam the coal
to be the best yet discovered in the
state.
Llewellyn Felller, who escaped from
the Silver Bow county Jail August 9,
returned to the Jail and gave himself
up Sunday.
An organization of the Catholic
Knights and Ladies' of America with a
membership of SIS was perfected at
Bozenan last week.
Owing to the inclemency of the

News comes from Colombia now to
the effect that the people are aroused
over the prospect of losing the Panama
canal. The rejection of the treaty,
doubtless as a result of the influence
of the big railway companies, has Gre
ated feeling of revolt which has
reached a serious stage. But, even
this apparently earnest protest may
be part of the scheme to defeat the
canal. SO long as the rejection of the
canal treaty by the Colombian senate
is regarded as final, there is danger
that the United States will turn to
Nicaragua for the isthmian route and
nothing would be more natural than
for the enemies of the canal to get up a
row in Colombia to give the impression
that the action of the senate of that
country may be resinded and delay
action.

According to the Forsyth Times, a
resolution was introduced by Commits
sionor Hope at the last meeting Of the
county board requesting the appoint
ment of a ''more representative citizen"
as chairman of that body. The peo-
pie recognize Thos. Alexander as the
most representative citizen of this coun-
ty, none excepted, and they we'll know
that Mr.. Hope worded his resolution
in no such insulting terms. For real
course jobber of vile, untruthful and,
at the same time harmless, creations
of lame intellect, give us the illeged
editor of the Forsyth Times.

whole poem were nicely brought out.
After recess, an article on 1.-The
Savior of the Public School, or the
Batavian Experiment, was read by
Mr.. Arnold of Sabra.
A thoughtfully prepared paper on
Discipline was then read by Miss
Hare of Raneher. This completed the
work of the forenoon session.
The afternoon session was called to
order by singing.
The first subject dwelt upon was
'Spel1ing," by Prof. Lewis. It's
great necessity and addition to practi-
cal life. He explained the proper
method, as impressions through the
eye and ear, and expressions through
hand and voice. Written and oral be-
ing parallel and equally necessary.
Some discussion and criticism by the
teachers.
After a short intermission, work was
resumed by music.
MISS Lane TedU most excellent
paper on school disclplin. She dwelt
at length on preparation for work by
instructor, opposing prize giving in a
very logical way. Gave good list of
rules for school management.
Prof. Lewis followed on the subject
of management from a financial stand
point. Free text books he highly rec
omended, giving most excellent and
forcible reasons for same. Continuing
along the lines of disciplin, he gave
most excellent advice as to how to
manage practical school room work.

Some over Jealous newspapers have
been indulging in criticisms of the cost
of the joint army and navy maneuvers
on the Atlantic coast. The criticisms
are entirely out of place. Our navy
has cost an immense sum of money and
unless the men and officers who man it
are competent it is of no value to us.
And unless they can have a reasonable
amount of practice there is no possibil-
ity of them maintaining a degree of
efficiency that is necessary in protect
ing the interest of the country.

Irrigation is demanding great deal
of attention from the press of the coun-
try and will in the future years make
fertile farms of the now arid plans of
the west. The prominence of irrigat-
ion as a national question, arising out
OF the passage of the act for national
aid in retaining the arid lands of the
west, has induced the proprietors of
the leading and largest newspapers
and magazines of the east to send their
best men to write up that subject in the
locality most affected by it. And
whenever the newspapers of the coun-
try are back of project or enterprise
it is sure to succeed.

The outside republicans of this coun-
ty were told last fall, by the members
of the Forsyth republican ring, that
Lyndes had nothing whatever to do
with managing party affairs. This
was necessary to hold the party to-
gether and keep the outsiders in line,
as some of them still remembered that
500 deal. The News insisted that this
yellowskinned deciple of Tom Carter
was debating the policy of the repub-
lican party in this county and now the
truth of our statement has been proven.
1t is now up to the deluded ones to
take their medicine and say nothing.

for themselves they have prescribed for
us all.

His Crookedness, the editor of the
Forsyth Times, takes exception to the
Helena Press concerning the taxation
and rates of railroads. These articles
are too ably written to be defended
by our poor efforts or to be destroyed
in effect by the irresponsible rantings
of the irresponsible editor of the ire
sponsible Times. The Forsyth Times
is very small and insignificant mouth
piece of ex-senator Thomas H. Carter;
and that worthy is, as is we'll known,
the ranking political captain of the rail-
road interests in this state. 1t is,
therefore. to be expected that the paper
in question would resent any in
ference on the part of the Helena Press;
that its chief patron can ride from
Kailspell to Glendive on pass. Wead-
NIT the deplorablec condition that permits
such a thing, but our real and great
grievance is in the fact, that next fall, as
in all previous elections, every railroad
roadmaster, bridge foreman and Sec
ton boss will receive his instructions
from headquarters to vote the men
under him in support of this smooth.
tongued, administered individual
who is longing to get his oily fingers
once again at the fair throat of Montana
to choke her into submissiveness and
silence to hisown pernicious schemes.

The summer vacation of the business
man is fast becoming an established
institution in this country. Not only
is this SO, but every employe has his
two weeks in the year. But where
does the farmer come in? He tolls
from morning until night every day in
the years, and his work is never ended.
Outlines it runs into the night and he
is up the next morning before day, and
this is invariably the case in harvest
time. If there is any man on earth
who really needs vacation it is the
farmer and the farmers wife and
daughter.

The trouble between the Turks and
the Macedonians has taken serious
turn, one likely to draw the United
States into the controversy unless the
powers take hand and compel some
kind of a settlement of the trouble.
But it is not likely that a settlement
can be had unless the sultan makes
some material concession to the Mace
domains, and this he will never do UNI
less forced to at the point of European
bayonets. There is some talk of the
powers making such a move, but they
have made SO many fiascos in this line
that the people on this side of the
water have but little confidence in
them.

It is amusing to note the squabble
between the Butte Miner and the For

items in the Miner. Then follows an

Institute a Success.

Institute convened Tuesday, Septem-
Der 18th, with about twenty-five teach
ers in attendance.
After opening exercises the members
assembled in Miss Jackson's room and
observed the grammar work in history,
arithmetic, etc. The pupils conducted
themselves most creditably considering
the low temperature of the atmosphere
in the building.
The music rendered was an espec-
tally pleasing feature of the program.
In the afternoon Mr.. Lewis, con-
ductor, instructed the assemblape in
geograpy methods, work and opportun-
tiles, and gave talk on mathematics
which was we'll received. Discussion
was entered into to great extent.
The morning session ON Wednesday
opened with the singing of the song,
'Sweet and Low" followed by the
roll-call. the superintendent remark
ing that only one teacher had failed to
arrive, though quite a number we're
tardy.
Miss Fitzpatrick of Forsyth then pre-
sented High school recitation in Med
iaeval history, studied by the source
method. which was greatly appreciat-
ed. The subject of the lesson was the
"Mohammedan PERIOD" The teach
er's thorough preparation. and her
use of both the topic and the question
method in recitation were noted.
An interesting paper on "Opening
Exercises, read by Miss Lauer OF
Lee, offered many excellent sugges-
tons, and the discussion which follow
ed brought out the value of opening ex-
ercises in securing punctual attend
ance.
Miss Benson of Forsyth then con-
Quoted an entertaining recitation in
High school literature. The subjec,
was Tennyson's "The Charge of the
Light Brigade. The main though,
of the poem, its best orical setting, the
thrilling intensity and movement of the
