TARIFF COMMISSION URGED
H. E. Miles Says Conferees VIII
Recommend Aldrich Proviso.
Chairman OF Committee Represent
ing American Industries Lauds
Present Revision as Intelligent.

Chairman H. z. Miles, OF the executive
committee Of the general committee OF
100 for a tariff commission yesterday
gave out the following statement:
NO sane person questions the wide
spread scope Of the demand for the en-
actment Of the AIdrich commission pro
viso. Il carries with it the assurance 10
the people that we shall never have so
agonIzing and discreditable a period or
tariff agitation as an the last eight
months, because It viii be impossible
under the new method With this change
win come more cordial commercial re-
lauons with the 127 treaty nations. and
world trade and a world view to which
our people so far are unaccustomed.
1T seems TO me impossible that the
House cOnfeTees will reject the tariff
commission provision; IN fact. II IS i'm
possible for them 70 do so IL they accept
Of the Senate maximum and minimum,
for that requires the President TO eXer-
else his judgment in applying 20 the com
merce Of each of IL friendly nations
either the maximum OF minimum sched-
ules. Certainly he win not give the mini
mum to nation that does not deserve
it. and 10 give the maximum undeserved-
ly would be 10 invite commercial war.
Almost every citizen OF this country,
the members Of Congress being no ex-
ception. hardening back DAY by day and
hour by hour through eight months TO
the middle of last November. when the
Ways and Means hearing first began. are
absolutely determined that no other re-
vision in this country shall be conducted
like this one"

To those who may linger on the
circus grounds when the parade OF
the great Sells Floto shows return to
the tents, it may appear that the mas
sive cages and dens of animals are
placed Unfortunately in the menag
erie tent, but this is not the case.
1t is necessary for the peace of the
animal families that the arrangement
be the same day after day. If the
lion cage originally is first, the mon
key cage next, the. polar bear next,
the seals next, the hippopotamus next,
the ocelot next, the tigers next and
SO on down one side Of the mammoth
menagerie tent and back on the other
one day, the same arrangement is
necessary after that.
The ends of the cages are closed, so
that the animals cannot see their
neighbofs, but they can smell them.
Any change Of order among the dens
will promptly start something in the
zoo.
When the Sells-F loto shows exhibit
here, the circus patron can obtain
much interesting information by
closely observing the menagerie.
The $500 Prize Armour hourses
are also with the Sells Floto circus
this year. They are a great feature.
One performance on the afternoon
of July Sth only will be given in

in the way of building an exchange
at Misosula, and long distance lines
from Leer Lodge to Missoula, from
Missoula to Wallace, Idaho, and from
Misosula to Hamilton. The Bitter
Root valley will be developed on a
large scale with exchange at Hamil-
ton, Stevensville and other points in
the valley.
About October / the new exchange
at Helena will open for business with
at least 1000 telephones installed.
The equipment Of the Helena ex-
change will be feature of the work
proposed by the Montana company.
The phones are the latest type of the
automatic instrument with the new
dial on the base, and the switchboard
is also automatic and the latest type.
Long distance service between Butte
and Helena has been In operation for
some months and found to give the
greatest satisfaction.
A Steady Growth
In conclusion Mr.. Lane stated.
The stability Of your company is in
dicated by the steady growth of bust
ness and revenues through a period
OF general financial depression, the
business secured in the various local
tiles where this company operates is
the most desirable, and the rates for
service are uniform and profitable
while the service furnished is main
tanned at a high degree of excellence.
Practically all Of the issued bonds
and stock of the company are held by
Montanians. The company now has
610 stockholders and the number is
increasing.

LOCAL OPTION AGAIN
BY Mrs. Agnes Just Reid.

A writer In the Register Of recent
date, who claims to be a woman but
signs no name, puts up an argument
against local option She begins by
saying Let we'll enough alone. Does
she or anyone else with common
sense call itss well enough" while
daily our smartest and best men are
being dragged to, degradation by
drink! She says local option will
not keep drunken men OF the streets.
Very well. II they are on the streets
the most disorderly ones will be
gathered In and given a chance to
sober up and II a woman Is seeking
husband or son she can find him on
the street or in the cooler but she
cannot enter q saloon or she will be
arrested. Another thing no woman
will have to sit holding q team and
managing half dozen refractory
youngsters while her lord and master
takes a social glass or two and ex-
changes stories with the boys before
leaving town.
She says farther when a man
wants to be man let him take one
drink then be man enough not to take
too many drinks" then in her con-
clusion she says 1T Is often wom-
ans fault that her husband drinks"
Rather queer the way she has man
kind sized up, one minute he must
be SO strong that he can resist the
Unsuitable cravings Of that monster
within, and the next minute so weak
that simple little insignificant wife
drives him to drunkenness.
This zone drink system and be
ing man are all very good, but while
one man takes drink and quits at
that, ten better men are lost by that
one social drink, and every confirmed
drunkard of today was once promis-
ing youth who, thinking 1t would add
to his manliness took just one drink.
BY and by it called for another and
another until now instead OF being
"a man, the noblest work of God,
he is the lowest OF beasts, and all the
powers of Heaven and earth cannot
lift him up as long as the saloon
stands open to lure him and his boon
companions call him to join them.
Did this woman ever have a hus-
band and does she ever expect to-
rear a son In Bingham county? I'll
SO she better help GUST the saloons.
She fears times will be dull and prices
low, well II our sons cannot make

prosper and help support these dens
