There was move started at a
banquet in New Orleans last week
to amend the Constitution at the
next session of the legislature in
order to allow Governor Sanders
to succeed himself with another
term of four years. We are not
surprised of this, because we pre-
sume the banquet was composed
of lot of politicians who are try
ing to help one another to perpe-
tuate themselves in fat offices. We
hope that if such attempt is made.
which will be solely for the bene-
fit of a state ring, that the people
at the polls will defeat any such
scheme.

Try a Pilot "Want'' Ad.

We are sorry to announce this
week that George Willis, who has
been on The Pilot staff for some
time acting in the capacity of what
is termed in printers talk as the
devil" has resigned his position
and will go to Libby in the morn
ing if he doesn't indulge too freely in
Thanksgiving turkey. George has
accepted position with the West
ern News, Of which his uncle E. "A .
Southwick is editor. He is a bright
and accomplished young man and
we hope to hear in few years that
he has made a mark for himself in
the journalistic world.

That the holidays are not far
off is evidenced by the grand dis
play of holiday goods in the diff
ferent stores. From appearances
it looks as if Santa Claus has
paid a premature visit to White
fish, but such is not the fact.
He has just sent his advance
agents out and has established a
distributing point here. Every
store in town has been appointed
agent for that much beloved
and generous gentleman, and in
the next few weeks the people
will be busy trying to figure out
what they are going to buy for
presents. Mr.. Merchant, you
can aid your customers in this
by telling the people what you
have that will make good pres
ents by using the columns of this
paper. We can make ads for
you that will be seasonable and
attractive.

WHY NOT HAVE A
LIBRARY?

Why doesn't WhltetlSh nave a
library? This question is raised
by a great many who come from
other cities where they have
such a necessity, and feel the
lack of it here.
The same question is asked by
old pioneers who are lovers of
good books and know the elevat-
ing influence it would have on
the community.
The only reason we don't have
a library is because no one has
made any effort so far to get one.
The general feeling by every
one is that a library would be a
good thing and would be greatly
appreciated. A free reading
room where one could spend the
evening reading wholesome liter
allure is something everyone in
town would be in favor of, and
there is no one who would not
encourage an institution where
he could borrow good books.
Whitefish could just as we'll
have a Carnegie library as not.
1t just needs a little pushing.
The various railroad employees
organizations are in favor of such
a move and would subscribe lib
orally toward an institution of
this kind and several individuals
have expressed themselves by
saying they would also make do
nations towards it. Fred B.
Grinnell, president of the White
fish ToWnsite Co., will donate a
lot for the building any time we
ask for it, and there is a law
whereby an ordinance can be
submitted to a vote Of the people,
and if it is accepted by MAORI
ty, a 3 mill tax can be levied for
the support and maintenance of
a library. With all this secured
and the proposition submitted to
Carnegie, we could no doubt Sc
cure donation from him for the
erection of a building.
This is something worth think
ing about and only requires a
little action to push it along, so
let's start the ball rolling.

do your Christmas shopping
early" is an old and oft-repeated
saying, but it is worthy Of repe-
tition. So many put off their
shopping until the last day, and
then everything is in a tumble.
There is a crush and a jam in the
stores. The clerks who are over
worked and tired, feel cross, but
are still expected to speak pleas
antly and wear a smile. The
postmaster is flooded with de-
layed packages that could just

HUNTERS HAVE
NARROW ESCAPE

Another hunting tragedy was
narrowly averted Sunday afternoon
which might have proved disaster
GUS and fatal to four we'll known
young men.
Clarence Davis, Joe Hamill, A.
Coins and James Manure were
hunting ducks in a launch at the
head of the lake when Just as
Manure raised his gun out of the
bottom of the boat to shoot, it was
accidently discharged, and came
within a few inches of shooting
Hamill. The charge went thru the
side of the boat tearing large hole
just above the water line, but they
were able to get to shore with out
shipping any great amount of
water.

the suit in condemnation, and puts
the Midland up against the necessity
of Citing together tn property
that a real railroad company should
have or OF upsetting the decision of
the district court in the matter.
While railroads are very necessary
in new state particularly, it would
not do of course to permit every pa
per corporation ostensibly organized
for railroad building purposes to go
ahead and condemn property for pa
per lines in various sections Of the
state. The right of eminent domain
should only be exercised for legi-
taimate purposes. fhe law recog-
nizes the necessity for overcoming
the opposition Of individuals to the
building of railroads by forcing them
to submit their property to the
courts in condemnation proceedings.
1t is only a matter of justice that
only legitimate railroad corporations
should have the right to take over
private property for railroad pur-
poses or for any other purpose OF
this nature.

The Standard Oil company an
nounces, through a letter sent out
from the Fargo Office, that because
of the change in the North Dakota
law permitting the Introduction Of
western oils and gasoline, there will
be a reduction IN the price, of both
kerosene and gasoline. The new
Toll inspection law is said to amply
safeguard the users and permit rthe
importation of none but. good oil
and gasoline, but the gravity tests
have been so changed that oils from
the western fields may be sold here,
something that heretofore has
not been permitted. Oil Inspector
Wilson has made arrangements,; to
see that none but good Illuminating
oil and pure gasoline gets in under
the new law, and the reduction in
price will be some saving to the
users of both commodities, and If
it is accomplished without lowering
the quality of the articles solo, so
much the better. +.
