law was generally complied with, al
though there were some instances
where disregard was shown it. Il
would be very difficult to- enforce such
law in many states having large cit.
les. and there is a question whether
any attempt to enforce the law would
not interfere with the constitutional
right of person to indulge in harm
less amusements. Possibly the exist
ence of such law would have the eff
feet of awakening a moral obligation
to properly observe the day, even if nc
fear of it's enforcement were entertain
ed.
Locally the suggestion has beer
made that Memorial day be held q
month later to avoid Indictment wealth
err, which usually interferes with thf
program. This is worth considering
There would be less danger from rair
while flowers would be more abundan
for decoration purposes than at the

THE
SENATORSHIP
DOES NOT CARE FOR
TOGA.

Topeka, Kan, June 11.-Foster
Dwight Coburn, who was on Monday
appointed by Gov. E. w. Hoch to be
United States senator, Succeeding
Joseph r. Burton, resigned, tonight an
nounced that he had decided not to
accept the appointment. Governor
Hoch Immediately offered the vacancy
to Judge A. w. Benson, OF Ottawa
Franklin county. Judge Benson is al
his home in Ottawa and has not yet re
Piled to the telegram informing him
of his appointment. There is little
doubt but that he will accept the OF
flee. Judge Benson is about 60 years Of
age and has been prominently indenti
fed with Republican politics in Kan
sas. He has held the office of judge
of the Franklin-DOuglas district anG
has served in the legislature He has
twice been mentioned as a candidate
for place on the state supreme bench
but has never been chosen.
Governor Hoch, both politically an(
personally, and was one Of the leaders
in the revovlt in the Kansas republi
can party two years ago which result
ed in the nomination of HOch for gov
ernor. Mr.. Benson holds no public OF
flee at present and is engaged in th'
practice of law at ottawa.
A special dispatch from the Capita
from ottawa says that Judge Alfret

was born in Chautauqua county, New
York. He practiced law at Sherman

TO CHANGE MEMORIAL DAY.

The ACCESSIBILITY of changing Men,
orial day from the 30th of May to the
last Sunday in that month is question
that is likely to come up at the forth
coming National Encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic in Min
neapolis. The reason for the proposed
change is the difficulty found in pre-
serving the spirit of the day as a sac
red day. At present the day is largely
given over to sports and merrymaking
and recognized as a holiday in all that
the term implies.
1t is very doubtful whether the
change. if made, would bring about
the desired result in the large cities
where very little regard is paid to the
saeredness of the Sabbath when /,
comes to amusements of every kind
Furthermore, if the day is observed or
Sunday it would be necessary, in keep
ing with the day, to dispense with
the street parade, which is an impor
tant feature of the observance.
The state of Nebraska has attempt
ed to bring about a more sane ant
sacred observance of the day through
legislation, a law for that purpose hav
ing been enacted by the legislator
last winter. The press reports from
that state were to the effect that tn

The committee on arrangements has
been fortunate in securing the consent
of Hon. Martin Maginnis to deliver the
Fourth Of July address in Lewistown.
Mr.. Maginnis ranks among the finest
orators in the state and is we'll known
to many of our people. Familiar with
American history and having been a
resident of Montana since early terri
torial days, serving the people as a
delegate in congress, and his country
nobly as a soldier. he will be sure to
maintain his reputation as an orator
and say something worth coming miles

Speaking of the crowd of "sooners'
expected to arrive in Billings this
week to register for a chance on land
in the Crow reservation the Billings
Gazette says: among other indica-
tons of an accepted local belief that
all who are expected to attend the reg
istration and drawing will not come
for that exclusive purpose is the boom
in ammunition and firearms reported
by dealers in those commodities"
Evidently many of the prospective Wis
itors still entertain the silly idea that
the west is wild and woolly' and that
they will need firearms to protect
themselves. Then, again. such draw
ings generally bring the bad element
along with the good. Great precautiol
is being taken to preserve order in the
cities where the registering will take
place, but it would not be surprising
if a few of the large number coming
died with their boots on" before the
period closed.

As might be expected, the meat pack
ers have entered a general denial or
the statements contained in the Neill-
Reynolds report regarding conditions
in the Chicago packing houses, al
though they admit of having instituted
better sanitary facilities since the re-
port was made. Having spruced up
and Cleaned house" the packers have
extended a general invitation to the
public to call and see for itself. 1t
will be remembered that the Standard
Oil company promptly denied the find
ings in the Garfield report, which was
amply sustained by revelations imme,
diately following the denial. If the
packers are anxious to regain the con
fidence of the public the best way to dc
it is to invite a thorough system OF
government inspection into all Of the
departments of their immense bust

Reports show that all parts OF the
state have been blessed with heavy
rains and the outlook for bumper crops
of both hay and grain was never more
promising. For the past two years the
hay crop has been light and a large
yield this year would mean much to
the stockgrowers and farmers of the
state. The ranges and meadows are
said to never look better than at the
present time. while all kinds of grain
is getting a good start. To an agrl-
cultural region like Fergus county, a
county that is going into wheat rails
ing on an extensive scale, the present
conditions and the prospects are most
satisfactory and reassuring. Unless
the balance of the summer is eX
ceedinsly dry or great damage is done
by hail, the harvest gives promise oil
being phenomenal one, which means
great prosperity from the soil, greater
than ever before in the history of the
county.
