GREAT BEND ANNEX

Work on the Great Bend Annex prop
erty is being pushed with every energy
and if there is a mine to be had on that
ground Weber and Ish, who are man
aging the development work, will GER
tainly find it. Seven men are busily en-
ployed on the main shaft and prospect
shafts The main shaft is down 20 feet.
SO far no values have appeared. but in
fact nothing was expected until great
er depth was reached. The prospect
shaft is down 23 feet. good ledge has
been encountered varying in width from
two to three feet and assays have been
had running from $500 to $26. When
the shafts are sunk to sufficient depth,
the ground will be thoroughly pros
peeted by drifts and crosscuts. That
part of the district in which the Great
Bend Annex is located has been the
scene of splendid strikes lately, among
others being that on the Great Bend and
the Daisy.

The recent resignation OF W. j.
BRYAN as trustee OF an Illinois colleges
because that institution had rcceivedS
a large gift from one of the kings ot}
finance, and thus as Mr. Bryan bes
Heved, compelled itself at futurel
times to offer biased opinion, based
on the fact that it had become an in
CRATE to this money power, displays
true spirit Of patriotlSm-not the
SNOWY, spread-eagle, flamboyant sort,
which the politician assumes whcn
intriguing for Il political job, but the
patriotism based on principal and the
future wellbeing of our state. The
latent patriotism stored away in the
breast Of the political orator which
is given vent to FUNDAMENTALLY i'll the
eulogizing of the principles Of Jetfer-
son and the greatness Of Lincoln, Is
all very commendable and has its
place. But patriotism does not con-
sist alone in loyalty to the flag and
praise of our country. When Il man
puts on his clean collar and new era
vat and attends the high school lyce-
nm or public lecture or Sunday
church service, lie is patriotic; when
he plants a lawn and sets shade
trees he shows patriotism; and wher
he shows his hand i'll local politics il
spite OF the possible loss OF political
job and promotes public enterprise
for the general good of the public
and not that he may use it as Lever
in raising private scheme of ht
own, then he Is doubly a patriot
man in public life today who is II
heart true patriot and does not us,
show of his patriotism as merely
play to the gallery must have Spartan
courage. This is the sort of patriot
ism we want in Forsyth---a loyalty t.
any enterprise that will serve to tn
general uphuilding of the town
real sympathy and cooperation wit
any movement, however small, tina
will help to place Forsyth one step i
the van with progressive Montan
towns.
