TALKING OF MissoULA.

Everywhere, 50 visitors tell us,
there is talk about Missoula. this city
is attracting much attention In the
business world and is receiving plenty
OF motto. from those who are looking for
a location. For the greater part, this
talk about Missoula is friendly and II
should be the aim of the boosters 10
keep II friendly. There should be an
effort made TO arrange for the recep-
tion of visitors in the city in such a
manner that whatever information,
they may desire may be placed at their
their part. There should be. also. a
winter campaign for city improvement
spring. We want Missoula to look her
part: we want her to be the most
beautiful city in the state. Nature
has done much in this direction; II
the people of the city had done their
share we would already have the city
that we should have. II Missoula

cities, her streets would all ha per-
feet. Let the winter be given up to
plans that viii. when carried out,

As 70 PINcHor.

Among the state contemporaries OF
The Muscular there are some. no
tably the Butte Miner. who pretend
TO hold to the belief that we have a
personal sordid interest In the Pinchot
policy. We have confessed to the
personal interest, which we believe
should be shared by every man and
every newspaper that has the develop
ment of the west at heart; further
than this. The Muscular has no per-
sonal interest. We do believe that
Mr.. Pinehot Is the exponent OF the
most beneficent policy ever incorpor-
ated into national administration.
But, as to the personal side of the
matter: here Is what the Anaconda
Standard has 10 say concerning the
current attacks upon Mr.. Pinchot. and
surely the Standard has no personal
interest In the matter:
II small part--just a little bit-of
what has recently been said by his
Of II. clifford Pinchot would BE- down
and out right now. II the policy he
pursues. with respect to the pending
controversy. were what the chief for
esters accusers say IL Is. President
Taft wouldn't stand for Il a minute.
Mr.. Pinchot has ardent admirers
who are impatient OF criticism of any
part of the splendid work he has
achieved. He also. has a more valu-
al. Al IA -.
friends who are willing to admit. as
he himself is. that mistakes have been
made and that candid and intelligent
criticism of forestry work is helpful
for the cause. But mass of recent
accusation Is the kind OF attack that
would ordinarily be directed at some
scrub who would stab man in the
back or practice the arts of thug.
That is not the kind of man Clifford
Pinchot is: and the newspapers that
are helping to spread tales of dis
reputable and dishonorable tactics al
legged to- be used by him in order. by
stealth. to damage Secretary Baliinger.
are newspapers that don't know the
man they are talking about.
II Is not 10 Mr.. Pinchots discredit
that he had the admiration OF Theo-
dore Roosevelt and that he has the
confidence and the warm esteem of
President Taft. II is not reasonably.
TO be assumed that Mr.. Taft Ii blindly
ignorant or grossly deceived with re-
spect TO the character OF the chief for
ester. We may be sure that the presi-
dent knows all about the going talk
circulated for the purpose OF putting
Mr.. Pinchot into disrepute, and We
may also be sure that had he any rea =
son for believing that shred of il
is true he would put him out of service
In an instant. This being true, the
sensible public may well permit this
stream of foul criticism to flow its
course; Ii won't stain the man it aims
to besmirch.

Gated by President Taft. it is still too

courts. Companies have been advised
To resist its demands for payments

which has exchanged its Illinois char

advised by our lawyers that it was Il
way Ia escape the Illinois laws. The
