in nuhlfr meetings TO take the other course.
Only I'm the really rural constituencies, where
interest rates were already per cent so that
lenders could not shoulder off the tax and were
fairly content with a net income OF SO per
cent as equal to what they could get anywhere
else YVES the mortgage tax popular; and even
there any disapproval of the repeal Is likely TO
be of n negative character.
We look, therefore, on all these fears as idle.
We make no attempt to forecast the Governor s
action. He may veto the bill. but we are sure
that If he does it will be for some public reason
of substantial character which is not now ap-
parent and was not foreSeen when the former
Recording Tax bill was vetoed In his veto
message the Governor squarey stated his readi-
ness to give hospitable consideration to a
Recording Tax bill. and disavOwed all pride of
opinion in favor OF the present law. He gave
series of detailed objections to the measure
which are generally allowed to have been sound,
and in referring to the possible insinuatiOn that
he did this merely to cover up a general disap-
prOval which he did not care to avow he prac-
tically intimated that he felt no such disap-
prevail Every one Of his criticisms has been
attended to. The new bill is, so far as anybody
could discover. exactly in line with what he
thought would be proper. 1t went through the
Assembly under such circumstances that not
only could he have killed it by wink, but that
it could hardly have been passed without his
positive acquiescence, for it was at the mercy
Of his particular friends. who were themselves
reluctant to see it pass Surely, then, the
recording tax will have fair consideration now
that it is in the Governors hands in a more
perfect form. We think the welfare of the great
majority of the Industrious people would be pro-
NOTED by its enactment and that it would meet
with popular favor. We hope and believe that
the Governor viii approve it. If he does not.
it will doubtless be because OF gravely and I'M
QuestiOnably serious defects undiscovered by its
friends or by the Governor himself at the time
of the Legislatures adjournment.

would far too great a risk OF emulating
the French Revolutionary Convention. Revi-
sion Of the fundamental law meaning, we as
sumo the formulation of a more perfect con-
stitution. is doubtless desirable. and so are the
establishment of the responsibility of minis
tiers and the right of Interpolation. These three
things would simply bring Russia more nearly
in line with other constitutional mOnarchies
Forced appropriation Of land is a demand the
meaning and extent OF which must be carefully
defined before approval of 1t is possible, and
the same is to be said Of the final item, guar
antees of the rights Of trades unions. II would
be well to have greater proportion of the land
of Russia divided among the people, in small
holdings. but it would not be well to cOnfiscate
estates. The rights of trades unions should be
guaranteed but it must first be specified what
those rights are
While, therefore, these demands include at
least one which should not have been made,
and others which must be carefully defined and
limited before they can be approved, they COM
prise some that are certainly cOmmendable, to-

Russian legislators will soon appreciate the
truth of Disraeli's dictum that it is much
easier to be critical than to be correct. 1t
is much easier for them to condemn the evils
from which Russia has been suffering than to
create a new system which shall be free from
them. The latter capacity will, however. come
in time, and, with all it's not unexpected and
certainly not objectionable crudities, this first
utterance of the DOUma is suspicious of it's COM

& Must Push Tickets.
All thru next week the cadets will
keep up the sale of tickets, and as the
play is one which will advertise itself
BY its excellence, they will have q
ready market for their tickets Every
ticket sold means a proportional in
crease in the corps fund for. which the
boys are working, and which will be
expended for their benefit exclusively
The cadets must not lose sight Of this
fact in the pleasure and excitement of
the coming week. It will be all very
well for them to enjoy the pleasure OF
being Indian fighters, even tho it is
only make-believe, but they must not
lose sight Of the fact that it is up tt
financial as well as an artistic success

think of going to the Lyceum next
week would make up their minds i'm.

diets come to them and tell why he is
anxious to sell his tickets.
Advance Sales Good.
The cadets who have tried have sold
their tickets with ga case. On One boy liv-

sold fifty tickets. Another lad at Hop

number. IF these boys living in the
outskirts of the city can do SO well
the boys who have ready access to the

How to Detect Ease Coin.

Several cases of making and circulat-
ing counterfeit coin have been heard
at the central criminal court during
the last few days. and at the conclusion
Of one Of the cases the foreman OF the
jury asked the authorities if they would
take a suggestion from twelve business
men who during the year had to deal
with considerable sums in silver oin
There was. he said, a most simple test
for the detection of base coin. 1t was
to sharply cut the mil!ed edge of a good
coin against the milled edge Of the
suspected coin. If spurious the metal
would almost Immediately begin to
shave of. After making a personal test
the common sergeant said he quite
agreed with the suggestion Of the jury
as to the usefulness Of the test and
said it ought to be made known.-Lon-

Marines Save Property.

Boston, Sept. ia %cablegram re-

from Cuba says the general conditions
in the Santa Clara province are des-
perate, but that the Atkins factory
and sugar manufacturing buildings
on the Soleda d estate have been saved
from the insurgents by the presence of
marines from the gunboat Marietta.
About 1000 people are employed on
the Soledad estate, which is one of the
largest in Cuba controlled by an
American company, and it is believed
the buildings on the property were in
danger from revolutionists.
Mr.. Akin said today that all trans.
portation had been suspended in the
southern country, and interior towns
were practically without supplies and

Russian barley Is Good Stuff.

TWIN BRIDGES, Mont, Sept. 15-J.
c. Dawes, formerly a leading farmer
in the famous Gsllatin valley, but for
the past two years engaged in dry land
farming on the bench lands north of
Norris, along Norwegian creek, in
this county. has demonstrated beyond
a possible doubt that a new epoch has
been opened to the Montana farmer.
During the past two years Mr..
Dawes has experimental in raising a
species OF Russian barley produced
extensively ON the steppes of Russia.
This grain differs somewhat from ma.
tive grain. The head resembles that
OF wheat while the kernel also bears a
resemblance to the same cereal. Fifty
bushels of well-developed grain can
be raised on one acre Of dry bench
land without water. The crop natures
in about 80 days, thus it is possible
by early seedipg, to avoid the hot
whitening sun Of late July and August.
This year Mr.. Dawes seeded his
ground on April Is and on July Is the
reapers were running.
Russian barley can be threshed and
used precisely as other grain. How.
ever, another idea in which MIR. Dawes
Is much interested and which he has
demonstrated to be successful, is the
feeding OF the Russian grain 10 the
straw to livestock, sheep. cattle and
hogs. He declares that one ton OF
barley fed in the straw contains as
much nutrition as three tons Of the
best alfalfa. The straw il tender and
sweet and livestock eat it readily.

Mantle Sounds Republican Keynote.

BUTTE, Sept. 12.-The republican
county convention met shortly after
noon today. Ex-senator Lee Mantle
nominated Secretary of State Yoder
for temporary chairman.
In doing so he made q speech which
sounded the keynote of the campaign
for the fall election. He said circum.
stances promised better for sue.
cess In ten years. ''Iu this era oil

understand why one should want to
change to old conditions under demo.
cratic rule. In Silver Bow in the las,
year the lion and the lamb laid down
together with the lamb inside. No

advocacy of his scheme of busting

The speaker declared he saw nc
reason why republicans, regardless
Of differences, should not get togethe,
and try to redeem Silver Bow from
Incompetence aud extravagance-nC,
to use a worse term-of the last eigh,
years. He referred to President Roose'
welt as the most fearless trust fighter
in the world. Then Mr.. Mantle made
a reference which brought loud cheers,
He spoke of Senator Carter as one o.
the best men in the upper house, and
praised the services Of Dixon in the
lower house of congress.
He referred in catering terms t
Judge B%ourquiu.
Chairman Yoder made q speech
along the same lines on taking tn,
chair. He referred to Mr.. Dixon a
the man from the Bitter Root who hat
done more for Montana than all tn
democrats had done"
