We have taken especial pains to

from their past records, worthy OF

into consideration their past record,
and found that the following

every way worthy of their support /:
7. j. Trey for Treasurer Of
CHOteaH Comfy. The colored
voters of Havre are enthusiastic
for T. J. Troy for County Treas

support they are only showing
their appreciation for one who has
at all times been their true and

In Northern Montana

In Northern Montana
Last week, in visiting Choteal
County, we met truly cosmopoli.
tan citizenship, and all seem to
dwell together in peace and har.
mony, and striving to their utmost
to build up the community in
which they live.
We had heard that Havre was
one of the untamed cities of the
Northwest, but we are prepared
to disabuse anyone who may have
that thought instilled in his mind.
We found it to be thriving city
of law-abiding citizens, composed
of all boosters and no knockers.
We found the officials to be broad
gauged and progressive, who wear
no coats of hypocrisy. No sus-
picion of graft is allowed to per-
meate the administration of the
County or City. And if gambling
is going on mot saying it isl, we
will guarantee the city is getting
revenue for the same. And no
individual or set of individuals is
profting for supposed pull to pro-
tect violaters of the law.
We met quite a number of our
people, who seem to be progress
sive and up with the times. o.
X. ID. Wellborne is the leading
caterer in the city; he enjoys a
lucrative patronage from the very
best citizens of Havre. He is a
strong race man, who does not
hesitate to encourage their enter
prises, and takes a keen interest
in the progress of our people.
We also met Mr.. Chas. Lawson,
who conducts one of the leading
tonsorial parlors of the city. Mr..
Lawson is also prospering, and
enjoys a splendid patronage. He
has bought property, and is thor
oughly of a business trend. There
are others whom we met who are
also doing their part in the march
of progress, and at some future
time we shall visit this thriving
city again on our mission of Peace,
Prosperity and Union.

What Does The Saloon stand For2

Editor Advocate:
After reading the report of the
convention Of liquor dealers l have
come to the conclusion that the
saloon businiss is doomed. 1t
plainly shows that the saloonists
we're very much in need of practi-
cal points when they declared that
drinking beer is temperance. This
assertion will have no weight with
the farmers because they know it
is a wiliul lie. Saloonists cannot
describe their internal institution.
IL has been describ d-especially
by their customers.
In first place, whaf does the
American saloon stand for? Does
it make men pure in thought, faith
full, chaste and beautiful? Does it
sanctify the home and sweep the
soul heavcnward in its aspirations
for everlasting righteousness? The
liquor dealer would say yes but we
know he is lying.
We know that the American
saloon is the place where candi.
dates for hell are made. 1t de-
stroys the body and damns the
soul 1t is the trap that catches
the youth; it is the wreck of man
hood and despair of old age. 1t
populates the poor houses and
asylums ana crowds tie penilen
tiaries. 1t bights the sweetest
roses Of CHI iritv. IL is the great
est force evil out ot hell The
work of the saloon is darkness in
the home, c!oui ia the church
and night in in the soul Of man
Three-fourths of the poverty and
crime comes hom the whiskey
bottle.
What is the saloons position in
the political field? Do they want
the best men sent to congress? Do
they have any respect for law:
No. They work against purity
The saloon demoralizss the ballot
brides justice and legislation, as
sassinates law aud pOisons and de.
bauches society. How many OF
our prominent men ever visited in
the saloon when they were boys:
Nos any. The saloon is a menace
to society. 1t places man below
the. level of the brutes. 1t has no
place under the stars and stripes.
