FAILS TO
BE PASSED
Board of County Commissioners
Against Fair Physiological
the Question Until Too Late.
Swanson and T0rbens0n With
the People.

The county commissioners
failed to pass resolution giving
the voters an opportunity to
vote on the herd law question.
The Independent hardly believed
that the majority of the board
had the nerve to test the ques-
tion. Commissioners Torbenson
and Swanson say that they
would have voted in favor of the
resolution. Commissioners Black
and Elliott evidently were
against the resolution. The
matter was talked of, but the
chairman did not put it to a
vote, knowing how the board
stood on the matter. Commits
sioner Abbott did not attend
the session.
There are some farmers who
wish the herd law to remain as it
is. Enough, however, have sign
ed petitions to warrant the COM
missioners to bring the question
to a vote, but as the time for
election is too near at hand, it is
impossible to submit the ques-
tion this year. The Independent
is glad that it had an opportun-
ity to test Mr.. Black and Mr..
Elliott on this question. Itmat-
tiers not whether the Indepenu-
ent favors the herd law or not,
we believe that the voters had a
right to express their opinions
on the subject. The fact OF the
matter, it makes not a cents diff
ference to the Independent
whether the law remains as it is
or is repealed, but we certainly
like to see fair play done.

the great southwest settled en-
 tirely by the mail order people, and see what would happen. The stores would stand it as long as they could, then move away.
 Banks would close their doors. The newspapers would have to quit. The hotels would go out of business, the mechanics meve away, schools and churches dwin- dle, sidewalks go to wreck, buildings would become vacant, unpainted a n d dilapidated, strangers would take one look and flee. Isn't that precisely what would happen if an entire county were populated with peo- pie who bought everything in Chicago? Who would buy a farm so located that he couldn't drive to some sort of a town? A sane man wouldn't take such land at half price. Be a friend to your own town, MT.

Dear Patrons: You will greatly oblige me by following these suggestions: When you put money in your box, wrap it in a piece of paper and leave a note stating the amount and for what purpose it was left. Buy about Soc worth of stamps at a time and do not ask me to stamp your letters. You should do that yourself. Do not leave 5c for two stamped envelopes and ask me to put your letter in one of them and address it to.
 Fix your box by fastening it to the post four feet from the ground, so the hind wheel of my buggy will pass under the box and the buggy hub miss the post.
 Work the road; do not wait until it gets impassable. There is place over there by your field that needs it atzoaea.- Do not pile wood or anything near your box. If your children go for the mail nail some cleats to the back of the post for a ladder and take away that old chuck you have for my buggy wheel to hit every day.
 If you do not appreciate the service, take your box down. If you do appreciate it, keep your box and the road in as good fix as your appreciation o f the service is great. Your Letter Carrier.

Press reports say the report of the committee on tenn perance was a terrific arraign- ment of the liquor traffic and re- newed all energies of the Bap. tists of Arkansas to the anti saloon league in its efforts to drive whiskey and gambling from the state.
