fore he casts his vote on election day

man that the best interests of this
state are in jeopardy?

Montana a stencil in the past now
arrayed under one banner, and that
the banner Of Democracy?
Is not Heinze, Clark. the Amalga
mated and the United Copper com
panies working for the same result
the election of Joseph X. Toole and
the whole Democratic ticket?
Is not the pretended hatred or dis
like of each other a mere play 10 de
ceive the voters, II not how can they
support the same men and the same
platform?
Ii is time the voters awake lest
they become the unwilling dupes Of
these great corporations in the car
rying out of their nefarious designs

The above is a fair specimen of the
kind Of a campaign the hireling edi.

carrying on in this state today. When

Whenever a Democratic millionaire
wants to go to the senate the first
thing he does is to buy a newspaper,
and the next thing he does is to get
some one to edit it who will do his
bidding and deal with the truth as
lightly as possible. Is it not about

rise up in their might and set the seal
Of condemnation upon the crooked

ing young congressman has won. AT.
ter a long series of years in which
Montana was only represented in the
lower house of congress by a name on
the payroll, Mr.. Dixon's energetic and
successful work during the last ses-
sion was especially appreciated. Not
only did he succeed In getting through
the house measures of great benefit
to the state, but it was conceded ON
all sides that he had made a record
and gained a standing that few mem
bers of the house had ever obtained
in their first session. The people of
Montana. without regard to party,
commended his splendid work, and
some of the warmest concentrations
he received were from Democratic
newspapers. But now in the cam

$4,000 acres of new lands were sub.
ject to taxation and that so miles of
railroad became taxable property,
Mr.. Picks showing Of an increase
amounts to about what the above were
assessed at. 1t Is true there may
have been a slight loss in the number
OF sheep, but there were more cattle
in the county than a year ago, owing
to the fact that beef shipments of cat.
tie were light last season. The slight
reduction in the valuation on both
cattle and sheep should have been
more than made good by the increase
in other taxable property, the building
and improvements in Lewistown alone
reaching into thousands Of dollars.
No capital can be made out of Mr..
Picks assessment.

erous offer in cash prizes to that end.
We are not Offering a cheap piano
valued far in excess of its first cost
price, but coin of the government that
peaks for itself, does not depreciate
III value and can be used for the pur.
pose that best suits the needs of the
prize winners.
Two hundred dollars in gold, the
first prize. would go far toward pur.

helping some young nan or woman
through college, paying of a church

outlying district, while, of course, it
could be used in ways too numerous
TO mention.
Now is the time to get interested
in this great prize-winning contest.
No such offer has ever before been
made in Montana.
Remember, it is new subscribers
that we want. The county Is growing
rapidly and there are hundreds who

In his speeches throughout the coun.
ty David Hilger tells what he did to
secure the passage In the house of
the initiative and referendum bill
MIR. Hilger did not even draft the
bill, but sent to Oregon and secured
a copy of the law enacted in that
state. In amending that law to suit
conditions here Republicans had as
much TO do with the bill as he did
consequently the bill is not even
known as the Hilger bill, but as House
bill No. IL. II Mr.. Hilger had the
influence he credits himself with why
did he not secure its passage in the
senate where it was sat upon by the
Democratic majority which controlled
that body.

did In Kalispell, to make 1t appear
that Mr.. Dixon's efforts were really
IN behalf Of big corporations instead
of the people. For instance, Mr.. Hall
referred to the bill that was passed
securing the title to something more
than a hundred claims in the Bitter
Root valley, in which there was some
technical flaw. and said it was in the
interest of some big lmber company.
When that story was told in the Bi;.
ter Root the settlers ON the lands tooa
prompt measres to stamp the state
ment as a falsehood. Mr.. w. b. Har.
Ian, a nan quite well known in the
Flathead, drove 20 miles to attend a
public meeting to denounce the story
as false in every particular and said
tDat the homes of himself and a large
number Of other persons whom he
named, were saved by the passage Of
the bill. Eight or ten timbered claims
in the entire list had been sold TO a
lumber company, and out Of that Mr.
Hall tried to give the impression that
the bill was not in the interest of the
settlers on the lands, but one for the
corporations.
Not even the Democratic speakers
or papers make an attempt to deny
that the opening of the flathead reser-
walton is due solely to Mr.. Dixon.
But they try to make a point against
him thereby saying that the provis
ions for selling the timbered lands of
the first class to the highest bidders,
Is In the interest of the lumber com
panies again. The fact Is that out
OF the hundreds of thousands of acres
of land in the reservation there are
not two complete townships Of timber
land all told, and 1t is a rank piece Of
%demaoguery for Mr.. Hall or anybody
else to call the bill to open the reser.
walton an act in the interest Of cor.
p~orations. The people of western
Montana know better than that. They
have been hoping for many years that
the reservation would be thrown open,
and they know that until Mr.. Dixon
went to congress nothing was accon.
plished, in spite of the urgent de-.
mands that were sent up. II Mr.. Dix
on had done nothing else for the state,
his securing of the passage of that
bill would give him a claim TO every
vote in Flathead county at the coming
| election.-Kalispell Inter-Lake.

Our Democratic contemporary across
the street last week gave Mr.. Hilger's
record In the legislature. He intro
duced five bills and one joint memor
ial. The latter was a mere piece OF
bunkum and OF the five bills only two
we're of any importance, one OF which
was defeated by a Democratic SEN
ate, the initiative and referendum. AS
TO the latter bill 1t Is better known
as house bill No. IL. Although Mr.
Hilger was interested In the bill, it
was so amended in committee that
he would hardly have the nerve to
claim paternity in connection with ii.
Mr.. Hilger was expected to do some.
thing for his constituents; that was
what he was sent to the Legislature
for. Unfortunately, he spent most OF
his time trying to find out what Mr.
Heinze wanted instead of the necds
OF his constituents. No intelligent
man will say he is better fitted tor
the legislature than his opponent
Furthermore, IL elected he will vote
for a Democratic candidate for the
United States senate. with preference
for F. Augustus Heinze, the head OF
the United Copper company. This is
the year when no personal favors
should go with Republicans. Vote
your legislative ticket.
