4 FAULTY LOGIC.

Bryan's running mate, increases the
number Of unemployed. Freedom 81
trade, Increases employment.
50?
It is now in order for MT Kern to
explain why so many English work
men are out OF employment, for over
there they enjoy absolute free trade.
So many men are out Of employment
that they threaten to ransack the
shops OF the cities in order to obtain
food for their little ones.
There is no restraint In trade there.
It is q curious fact, in this connec-
ton, that there is arising In the Unit
ed Kingdom, a class, backed by the
workmen themselves, who are de
handing a protective tariff, like that
in force In this country, to increase
the trade and the wage rate OF Eng
lish workmen, by shutting out OF com
petition the cheaper wares of Spain,
Austria, Italy and France.
On the other hand, the ultra free
traders of England are advising all
classes to go slow, and await the Re
suit Of the elections in the United
States, promising that IL free trade
is adopted in this country, the British
factories now closedswill resume oper-
atoms.

FACTS FOR THE VOTERS OF VEL
LOWSTONE COUNTY ON THE
ELECTION or DISTRICT JUDGE.

VI OOAyUI1s
There are q few facts, which at this
time should appeal to the voters Of
Yellowstone county In regard to the
matter Of the district Judge.
This county of Yellowstone has by
far the greater portion of litigation
of any Of the three counties and pays
nearly as much Of the salary as the
other two counties together. This
county is centrally located and being
between the other two counties It
would be decidedly more convenient
to the people Of the three counties to
have a judge located at Billings than
to have the Judge in either Of the
counties of Carbon or Rosebud.
This county has never had a Judge a \
resident Of Billings, although the
county has been in existence for more
than 25 years. We feel that these
matters should appeal to the voters
of Yellowstone county at this time and
as q: matter Of local pride old Yellow
stone ii, going t. show how; ii feels
abouitt this matter ~ voting for Jas. r.
Goodss' for Judge Of the district court.
It Is. the first time In the history OF
the county it has the opportunity. to
vote on Judge from this county and
1t Is going to vote right.

WHERE CONNOLLY STANDS.

In order that there may be no mis-
take about it, we reprint a signed
statement from Mr.. Frank B. Connolly
with reference to his position on the
reapportionment of the state, the in
creased representation from Yellow
stone county and his view on the
election of United States senators.
Dear Sir:-As I have said publicly,
] now repeat, that If | am elected
representative, | pledge myself to
vote for a reapportionment of Mon
tana, and an increased representa-
ton of Yellowstone county in the
state legislature. l am in favor Of
electing United States senators by
vote Of the people.
Trusting that you will approve
these views by casting your ballot
for me on November 3, and thank
ing you in advance for your kind
mes / am,
Very truly yours.

That this is rank injustice to the
rapidly growing communities OF East-
en Montana, Is apparent to every
reasonable man
That 1t IL discrimination In behalf
Of a number Of Democratic counties in
the western portion Of the state, that
have either remained stationary or
have lost population, is equally true.
That counties that contain a popula-
ton less than the city Of Billings
should have two and three or four
representatives in the state legislature
is an outrage that may be corrected
only by a vote OF the people.
We cannot expect 3 ~reapportion-
ment at the hands Of the Democracy,
for that party has gone on record
against 1t.
The Republicans, on the other hand.
pledge themselves to a reappor-
tionment Of the state, and that means
increased representation from Yellow
stone county. !;
In order to obtain the full measure
Of the protection, it is important that
every vote should be cast.
Similarly, Is order that there may
be no mistake, one should vote for
Frank b. Connolly, Republican candi-
date for representative, who stands
pledged to order a reapportionment
OF the state, and that means increased
representation from Yellowstone coun-
u.
In order that mistakes may be avoid
ed vote the Republican ticket straight.
The Billings gazette. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1896-1919, 1908-10-30

During the four years of Democratic
free trade a tremendous falling on 10
recorded. This Is explained through
the operation OF the free trade princi-
pie, which closed SO many factories
and reduced our workmen to idleness.
With; the return Of tie Republican
party to power, there was an imme-
diate resumption OF work In all lines
aand an increase of 5000, OO0, 600 in our
export trade inssthe first year. Look
at the figures.
When q man talks panic to you,
shove the figures shown above at him.
It will take all the wind out of his
argument.
II you cannot see your own best
interest in the policy Of protection.
in these figures, you are deceiving
yourself, and in the injury you work,

JUSTICE TO
@ COUNTY.

Now that the vote Of the county
has been registered, another very i'm
portant duty c%onfronts the people.
AS stated In previous issues Of The
Gazette, there will be "a r%eapportion-
ment Of the state by the next legisla-
ture, providing it is controlled by the
Republican party.
II 1t is controlled by the Democracy,
there will be no reapportionment.
The Democrats do not want 1t, for
the reason that 1t will cut down the
representation of that political organ
ization in the legislature, for the strict
ly Democratic counties have remain
ed stationary as regards population
during the past eight years, while the
Republican counties have shown enor.
nous increases. ~;
For instance, one Democratic coun-
sty, the total population Of which is
less than the city Of Billings, has great
er representation In the legislature
than all OF Yellowstone county.
Tho registered vote of Yellowstone
county this year is more than twice
as much as it was -four years. ago,
Thus 1t will be eel that a reappor.
tionmnaenlt. will give this county three
representatives in the house, instead
of one, as at the present time.
So two important duties devolyea
uponsthe voters at the present time.
The first Is to get out the full vote,
the second Is to return the largest pos.
sible majority, in order to assure the
election Of a Republican representa-,
tive, pledged to vote for a reapportion.
ment OF the state, and justice to Vel
lowstone county. /.
This Is a serious matter to the peo-
pie of this community. The Democrats
will never vote for a reapportionment
they have always voted against the
proposition in the past, for they real.
ize that to change the representation
means to decrease largely their
strength in the Legislature from the
strictly Democratic counties Of the
state.
Vote the Republican ticket and vote
it straight.

PROTECTION OF moNTANA's
SCHOOL ENDOWMENT.

The thoughtful people Of Montana
will bring about the reelection OF At
torney General Albert J.. Galen more
On the strength Of his record as 9
public official than by reason Of his
party faith or his personal popularity.
No elected officer OF Montana, not
even a governor, v did for the pub
lie good of the state a greater, more
enduring or more unselfish service
than that Of MI. Galen in conserving
for all time the school lands endow-
ment of Montana, when he handed
down his now celebrated opinion to
the effect that the principle Of the
educational resources Of the state
could not be applied, used or con
sumed in the present needs Of the
school system hut that only the inter
est and earnings Of that asset could
be Withdrawn. That this was good
law, was quickly made apparent by
the successive upholding decisions OF
the supreme court, state and federal.
But in its aspect as a public serv.
ice it must come right home to the
mind, as well as to the heart of every
one who has faith in and love for our
public schools. 1t was Attorney Cen
eral Galen who stopped forever the
wastage of millions of acres of pub
lie lands that are gaining in value, in
every day. He saved Montana's great
educational resource to your children
and their children. School land that
was not worth $40 an acre when he
gave that opinion is worth $40 already.
In time the vast school acreage will OF
itself earn by lease or interest on its
accruing value ample for all the edu-
cational needs of our school system.
He put a stop to the f~rittering away
of the principal.
The public at large, the great ma.
jority of taxpayers, all business men,
educators and unselfish people realize
now the extent and value OF that serv-
ice which Mr.. Galen rendered, not only
to his contemporaries, but to poster.
ity. It has not only conserved mil
lions OF dollars worth Of improving
property to Montana, but it has set
a precedent which is being wisely fol
lowed by other states. II he had &C
complished nothing else during his in
cumbency, this single achievement
would be sufficient answer to the
question: 'Shall we re-elect him?"

BREAD RIOTS in ENGLAND.


Bread riots in England. Crowds held
in check BY military guard. Free soup
houses and public charities, while
the rich roll about in carriages,
wealthy beyond the dreams OF avarice.
Why?
It is very simple. The laws of Eng
land are different from the laws of
this land. England believes in a free
market, that the rich may purchase at
home as cheaply as they may pur-
chase abroad, hence, free trade. which
benefits the wealthy class, but not the
poorer people Of the land.
starvationswage n necessary, in
order to compete with still cheaper
labor of Asia and Africa.
And free trade is what the Demo
Gratis promise us if Bryan is elected.
Contemplate the picture of strong
men fighting for bread for their little
ones in England, and then reflect
whether you want to bring about the
same condition Of affairs in this coun-
try. # you do, just cast your ballot
for the Democratic ticket, and you
will get poverty and misery, and want,
and starvation, and you will have an
other Coxey army, and an increase in
the number of tramps, fll the poor
houses and increase the number OF
ibegggars, for Poverty and Democracy
go hand in hand.

II he gets less for his wool and hill

Either he must go out OF business
