WORK WELL DONE.

The work of the extra session of
the Legislature was completed last Fri.
day and the lawmakers have return.
ed to their homes to receive the con-
CALCULATIONS of their constituents.
Three bills designed to insure fair
trials were enacted and promptly
signed by the governor. 1t is to be
hoped that they will stand the con.
~stitutional test and meet the demands
of the peculiar conditions in this
state.
The legislators did a wise thing at
the start in warning lobbyists that
their presence was not desired. The
almost unanimous vote by which
these measures were passed is signi.
ficant. The feeble opposition offered
by Heinze's henchmen is ample proof
that the legislation proposed was in
behalf of the integrity of the courts
and of justice to litigants. An at

THE RALsToN MEMORIAL.

The defeat in the legislature of
the memorial offered by Senator Raj
ston. of Teton county, on behalf of his
constituents. requesting that some OF
the lands in the st. Mary irrigation
reserve be restored to entry. will &C.
casion some surprise.
Certainly Mr.. Ralston made out a
strong case in which he showed that
great injury was being done to set
tiers by withdrawing these lands
from entry while awaiting the indefi-
mite action of the government in re-
claiming the lands.
The memorialists say that the res.
ervation OF the lands will result dis.
~astrously to the people of the county
and will avail nothing toward the ad-
vancement of irrigation by the gov.

route. In drawing up this treaty ev-
cry concession was made to the peo-
pie and to the government of Colon
bia. We were more than just In deal
ing with them. Our generosity was
such as to make IL a serious question
whether we had not gone too lar In
their interest at the expense OF our
own, for in our scrupulous desire to
pay all possible heed. not merely to
the real, but even to the fancied
rights of our weaker neighbor, who
already owed so much to u protec'
ton and forbearance, re yielded In
all possible ways to her desires In
drawing up the treaty. Nevertheless
the government of Colombia not
merely re%pudiated the treaty. but re-
pudiated II in such a manner as TO
make II evident by the time the Co
lombian congress adjourned that not
the scantiest hope remained of ever
getting a satisfactory treaty from
them. The government OF Colombia
made the treaty, and yet when the Co.
lombian congress was called to ratify
II the vote against ratification was
unanimous. 1t does not appear that
the government made any real effort
TO secure ratification"
The president has placed the mat
ter in such a clear light that 1t would
seem to set at rest all controversy as
to the justification for what had been
done. He has no thought of and sees
no necessity for seeking another route
and the chances are the treaty will be
ratified with Panama and the canal
dug despite the wishes and opposition
of the Colombian government and
Senator Morgan. of Alabama.

President Roosevelt, in appointing
a commission to make an investiga-
ton into the operation OF the existing
land laws. shows that he is not dis.
posed TO make radical recommends
tons simply because OF abuses that
have arisen. While he is anxious to
reclaim the arid lands of the west
and has great faith in the benefits of
the national irrigation scheme which
is just being inaugurated. he is too
well informed about the west not to
know that there is danger of going
too far in the repeating business. The
president says: so far as they are
available for agriculture in its broad.
est sense. and to whatever extent they
may be reclaimed under the national
irrigation law. the remaining public
lands should be held rigidly for the
home builder" II the withdrawal OF
lands under the irrigation act is done
in accordance with the above view
there would be little ground for com
plant. But the president knows tina,
there are millions of acres that car
never be so reclaimed.

But Mr.. Heinze makes the mistake

HEINZE'S NEW PARTY.

The launching of Heinze's new
party last week was a tame affair.
There were but few counties repre-
at his mass convention. The
great majority OF his delegates came
from Silver Bow county and consist
ed of those in his immediate employ
in one capacity or another. His spec
ial train "a made up of those who
work for him and those who work
him. The ~inducement of a free ride,
free lunch and free booze vas suffi-
cient to guarantee a good attendance
from the copper camp. Those who
took part In the christening of this
new party are not men to inspire any
one with the purity of their motives.
Such political hacks as General War
rem and Ex-Governor Robert Smith
we're two conspicuous wet nurses and
bottle holders. or course, Mr.. Heinzc
was the chief "s~pellbinder" and al.
though he aroused some enthusiasm
among his henchmen he did not make
many converts to the cause of the
United Court and Copper company.
The fact is, Mr.. Heinze has played
his hand too strong. He has expos.

terprise no fault can be found. An
exorbitant demand would drive In
tended settlers away.
One statement in the memorial
which impresses the point frequent
ly made in these columns, is the fol-
lowing:
The only class OF people benefited
by the said withdrawal are the large
stock owners who have secured titles
to all the lands they can afford to
carry and failing n thei r attempt to
lease the public ranges, encourage the
withdrawal of lands which they well
know can never be brought to advan-
tage under a government system Of
irrigation. thus retarding actual set
Element and the building up of civ.
ilizaton. in order that the ranges may
remain free for their herds, which do
not contribute more than a small per.
centage of the expenses of govern.
ment for the community and the own.
ers of which are to a large extent
non-residents."
Thus, in their pretended desire to
have Montana "thickly settled" by
home builders, Senator Gibson and
the editor of the Great Falls Tribune
are unwittingly urging a policy that
would render a great portion Of the
remaining lands accessible only for
range purposes, defeating the very OBJ
ject which they apparently are anx-
ious to bring about. If successful, then
there is only M course for the gov
eminent to pursue, and that is to
adopt a leasing system, so that the
millions of acres left will be made to
return some revenue to the national
treasury.

The matter of feed is Of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.
