From the first crash of brass that
heralded the parade until the last
strains of the evening balls Home.
Sweet Home" Missoula's Labor day
celebration was an enjoyable, interest
ing, inspiring success. From the pa
rade-itself the most elaborate pageant
ever to march through Missoula' 5
streets-to the address of the speaker
of the day and the program of sports,
TO the feeding of the multitude, To the
band concerts and, finally. the dancing
party in the Greenongh park pavilion
from early morning until late ut
night there was nothing to mar the
demonstration of labor in its own
honor. The sun shone down upon the
celebration without even the fleeciest
of clouds 10 hide its smiling approval,
the visitors-there were many-en-
iosed themselves. there were none of
the accidents and incidents t4las .c9ae-
times intrude where thousands gather.
there was nothing-absolutely nothing
whereby any challenge can be made
TO the statement that on September 4,
1909, was held the best Labor day
celebration Missaula can boast.
The Parads.
To the parade and the people who
had it in charge the honors of the day
are undoubtedly due. 1t was by far
the best attempt in its line which has
ever been made in Labor day celc
bration here. and to the 10000 people
who watched the progress Of the long
pageant it furnished the chief enter
tainment of the day. Every union
from the blacksmiths to the laundry
workers had representatives in line,
and each delegation bore testimony To
the hard work and conscientious labor
which the promoters of the celebration
had put into its preparation. There
was not even a breeze To spoil the
parade and. with the sun still low in
the sky and the morning air still fresh
and cool, the big crowd Of spectators
who lined both sides of the streets all
along the line of march and crowded
every available inch of window space
Ia get a glimpse nf the spectacle were
able to stand in the streets without the
slightest discomfort.
The procession formed sharply at
3 o'clock on the corner af Higgins ay-

Long before the next float came into

stings and bites OF insects are extreme
ly dangerous at all times. and especially
when the system is not in a condition to
resist the poison injected. In many insects
the nature of the poison has not been as
certained. While in most OF them It is OF
an acid, irritant nature, in others II may
contain a powerful cardiac sedative and
depressant and in still others organisms
in pure or mixed cultures may be intro
duced with the sting or bite. Apart from
the natural poison used by insects, II
should not be forgotten flies and other in
sects that live on carrion may easily carry
contagion and inoculate the persons whom
they bite or sting In the case of ordi-
nary bites and stings the chemical anti
dote is a strong alkaline solution, such as
a strong solution OF bicarbonate Of soda or
potash, which counteracts the ac'd OF the
sting. Suction at the wound in all these
vaaieties OF stings and bites will draw out
some of the poison. and until some anti
toxin treatment can be found which will
prove an antidote to the bacteria poison
introduced little can be done beyond a
stimulating and supporting treatment with
attention to symptoms.

WRANGLE OVER OFFICES.

~ HE Democrats in Council have been wrang-
n ling over the distribution of the Offices and
thereby entailng the criticisms of disgruntled
would-be leaders of the party who fear that the
Democrats will get into the ''old ruts" and show
that they are real Democrats and not the fancy
painted Democratic party that we have of late
been told so much about
The Democrats show that they are capable of
a real od-fashioned long drawn out battle Their
all-nght staying qualities good. They won
the election and therefore they fight the dis
tributon of the Offices The Offices are, after all,
an important thing to the Democratic organiza
ticn Persons that used to be called Mugwumps
and such kickers and Democratic GROWERS are
not to be permitted to run the Democratic party
so long as there are practical men like Mr.. James
Kane about And then these Democratic critics
have only object in view and that is to bind
the Democratic party closer to the corporate in
terests of the State than it has been bound
Why should not the Democrats return to the
"old rut 2" That is their natural position The Levy
Court of Kent county by opposing public inn
provements in that county shows conclusively
that the Democrats are TO continue in the old
rut" and that years of defeat have not changed
the natural bent and inclination Of the party.
All this sanity talk about the Democrats and
good government does not make much of an inn
preston when the Offices distributed The
chief object of the Democrats is to seize as many
Offices as possible and no wonder the advice of
political theorists and cranks who want to boss
the party falls upon dull ears.
The Democrats, as a result of the wrangling,
have elected Mr.. George II. McGovern Clerk of
Council and a good selection they have made

WOMEN FIGHT CIGARETTES

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July s1.--
Women will take an active interest in
the enforcement of the Anti Cigarette
law, which goes into effect tomorrow.
Drug stores especially will be watched.
In most cases these women are moth
ers' who will insist that the Cigarette
law be enforced to the letter. AS a
result the large drug stores announce
that they viii make no attempt to sell
cigarettes after next Saturday.
This week win see slashing cuts in
the price of cigarettes and few dealers
expect TO have any stock by midnight
next Saturday
The passing Of the cigarettes in the
stores Of this State does not mean a
material decrease in their consumption,
however. because already retailers have
supplies Of certificates, which will be
sold to the consumer, and these may
be mailed to out of the State dealers,
who will promptly ship cigarettes to
the home Of the consumer.

is part of the Democratic political buncombe.
We fail to see how such frauds as the Democrats
hint at could be possible
The opportunity is always open to scrutinize
the registration lists but as a matter of fact very
few names on the registration lists in the lower
counties have been challenged. The way is always
open through the coNtts TO prevent fraud And as
we have remarked if the Democrats knew that
repeaters and impersonators had been at work in
the Second ward or in any other ward they should
have had them arrested at the time The vote in
that ward did not vary from what it had been.
The Democrats had the machinery of the law
with them, they have it now, and they surely have
every kind of opportunity to prevent election
frauds
The Republican party in this State has always
stood for free ballot and fair count. The his
tory of the state shows this fact, and before the
Democrats attempt to pose as the only guardian
angels Of the people, and only defenders Of the
ballot, they should blot out some dark pages of
the history of the party in Delaware.
