large, not cursed, censured and
denied even the moral support of
the people. Such men after a
while get tired. Every town and
community has few boosters
who take civic pride in promoting
such things as county fairs, base
ball teams, Fourth of July celebra
tions, etc, but when they meet
with such absolute lack of even
common interest as the promoters
of the Meagher County Fair have
met with in the sixty.two letters
sent out, the public sooner or later
will have one grand opportunity
to take Rip VanWinkle sleep
and hide out for twenty years.
Get in line everybody that re-
ceived one of the sixty-two, show
the Fair Association that you in
tended all the time to do it, but
just forgot it. We know this is
really the case, as the men who
got those letters were known to be
public spirited citizens of the
class who want to help the officers
of our county fair, who have and
are now working like Trojans to
make your fair one grand success.

N. P. LANDS ON MARKET

The campaign started by the
citizens of Roundup several months
ago to have the Northern Pacific
Railway company place their hold
ings on the market has finally
borne fruit. Land Commissioner
Thomas Cooper of the N. p, who
was in the city Tuesday made the
positive statement before gather
ing of the business men of the city
in the Pioneer club rooms that
the lands owned by the N. p. in
Musselshell county would be placed
on the market within thirty days,
and that a local agent would be
appointed to look after the bust
ness, says the Roundup Record.
1t was certainly joyful news to
hear that the vast holdings of the
railroad company which comprise
about one-half of Musselshell
county and which is now lying
idle would be thrown open for
settlement and cultivation, thus
bringing about great change in
conditions as they exist here now.

Barber, Mont, July 13, 1911.
The 4th of July celebration in
Barber was a good success. AL
though the crowd was not as large
as it might have been if reports
had not been spread by some kind
friends the same day of the cele-
bration that there would be no
use of going to Barber as there
would be no celebration there.
However we had a good respect
able crowd and a good social time
was enjoyed. About 100 people
were present. A bounteous free
dinner was served to all presen
at the picnic grounds. After din
ner Mr.. Floodberg gave a very in
structing independence grafton.
Those who received the prizes in
the races were as follows:

The QUESTION?
YES OR NO?
Continued from page l.

OF the Meagher County Fair ASSO-
citation, and something over 81, 900
was quickly subscribed; grounds
were leased for twenty years, brush
and timber cleared, race track
built, one exhibit building, a grand
stand seating 1000 people which
with fencing and other improve
ments, cost the management over
$4,000. TO this date more than
$4,000 of the four thousand sub
scribed, remains unpaid and sew
eral have absolutely refused to
pay on the ground that owing to
rain and storm, no fair was held.
The Association is now nearly 81,
600 in debt, all of which has been
guaranteed by half dozen people
who are public spirited enough to
see, know and realize what an an
nual fair means to Meagher coun-
ty.
AT the Directors meeting held
Saturday, the questions of tinanc-
es were naturally discussed at
great length. The fact is appar
ent that unless some substantial
assistance is Immediately forth
coming from those people in the
county who can well afford to con-
tribute, we cannot have a fair in
keeping with other county fairs
in the state. The population of our
county is small and even if every
man, woman and child in the
. county would attend, less than 80
per cent actually do pay the full
price of admission, the fair then
could not possibly make any sort
of a creditabIe showing in exhibits
ond provide a line of amusement
for the people that will please and
amuse those who come to see the
the show.
More than a month ago the di-
rectors of the association decided
to make a general appeal to just
those people in the county who
could afford to contribute the
small sum of $500 toward max
ing big show of farm exhibits at
the coming fair. 1t was expected
that forty people would each con
tribute $500 (for which they
would receive one share of stock
in the Association for that amount)
so sixty-two letters were prepared
and sent out with the subscription
made payable August 1st, 1911.
To the time of the meeting yester
day, only four subscriptions had
been received, two of those coming
from the Harlowton Milling Com
pany, one from p. S. Olson and
one from Louis Penwell. This
sounds almost increditable but
nevertheless true. There are
many rich ranchers and well-to-do
business men in Harlowton and
nearby surrounding towns, any of
whom can donate $500 for such
a worthy cause and never miss it,
and the exhibit of farm products
collected and exhibited at this
coming fair will increase in value
every acre of Meagher county land
one hundred fold, all of which
means increased business for the
business man and banker.
A stamped envelope was enclos-
ed with each of the siXty-twO let
ters sent out. TO this time, one
month hence, only one person has
shown the courtesy of even arefus-
al, and he said he lived out of the
county.
Officers and committees who
give their time and undivided at
tention to county fairs are public
benefactors and should be lauded

The democrats of Henderson,
vile never before had a better
chance in placing the responsible
ty of the city's affairs in their own
party's hand than they have in
the coming election for better
city government.
With only a very few discon-
tented members and with the
opposing party, reported badly
split the democrats of this city
the county over, is on the verge
to bring about a change in the
administration.
Hendersonville, the beautiful
little city, so often spoken about
the county over, is on the erge
of a wonderful change. Prosper
ity is fast approaching along with
everything that is for the good of
the community, bringing to bear
the utmost Importance that the
town should have officials thor
oughly capable of managing the
affairs in accordance with the
time.
1t is to be a democratic victory
and with every loyal voter who
stands for the high moral issues
and wants good city government
there should be a working spirit
with in him which will bring to
the polls on election day men who
will endeaVor to carry the ticket
to victory.

Wilmington To Help Retain Lem
Thung As An American Citizen Des-
pite His Mistakes.
News and Observer

(N0WS anu OUS0IN0IsI
Prominent citizens of Wilmington
! are showing deep concern in keeping
as an American citizen Lem Thung,
sometimes called Sam Lee or Chung
Lee.- He is worth from $4,000 to $1O,-
900 in Wilmington, is understood to
have about $4,000 invested in New
York, also $4,000 to $4,000 in China.
Information as to a mix up" in
which the wealthy Chinaman has got
ten into with the emigration officials
at Boston has been furnished Com

L. Shipman by MIR. v. B. Cooper.
president of the American National
Bank of Wilmington, in which, Lem
Thung is a stakeholder, and Mr.. Ship
mans services requested in aiding
in Strengthening out affairs.
In his letter Mr.. Cooper states that
Lem Thung visited China about two.
years ago., taking with him his sick
brother, who it was reported died in
China. Later when Lem Thung re-
turned admission by the local authori-
ties at Boston, but after quite an eff
fort his Wilmington friends succeed

till the first of May. Now they want
to arrange to have him stay perman-
emily. The trouble is taht the China
man signed some paper that was pre-
scented him when he left the country,
making in it an erroneous statement,
as<he lived in Wilmington and his
business interests were in New York.
while the law says that he shall be
with his business. 1t is not believed
that the Chinaman meant to make any
false statement, but by it he has got
ten into trouble with the Department
of Commerce and Labor, and put in
Jeopardy his citizenship in America.
Mr.. Cooper stated that he had ex-l
planned the matter to Gov. Kitchin
who had written in the Chinaman's
behalf as had a number of leading
Wilmington citizens, and that he and
others from Wilmington hoped to be
in Washington Monday next to see

matter, and requesting that the De-
partment accede to the wishes of the

of an un~intentional error.

RELIEF TO FARMERS TOO.

The Hustler, in common with
predominant sentiment in the
State at the time, thought that
Senator Simmomns, and a few.
other Democrats who took a like
view with him at the regular ses-
sion, had made a, serious mistake
IN opposing the ratification of the
Canadian reciprocity theaty at the
regular session of Congress. In
the light of present and prospec-
tive developments, however, it
rather appears that In conse-
quence of their opposition to the
ratification at the regular session,
the country is to get the benefit of
some real and substantial relief
from protective burdens. AT
best, there is but little relief from
protective burdens in the reel
procity treaty, and none upon
manufactured products. Such
reductions as are made in that
treaty are rather in the interest
of the manufacturer than of the
consumer. BY defeating this
treaty at the regular session. anC
throwing it over into the presen.
extra, session of the new Con
gress, with its Democratic Hous'
and increased democratic strength
in the Senate, it now appear
quite certain that not only vii
the treaty be ratified, but that j
will be followed with aAcompaniol

NJ FOR PRIMARY.

That United States Senator F.
n. Simmons believes in a rule of
the m~assestis clearly shown by the
open position he takes upon the.
question of selecting candidates
for this great Office by a direct
vote of the people. Referring to
the proposition Of nominating a
Senator by the primary method
this newspaper said in a recent
issue:
"The News and Observers sugges-
ton that a primary, for the nomina-
ton of a candidate for United States
Senator, be held at the same time
and place as the general election in
November, 1912, is a good one. This
method is not only democratic. but
would relieve the party of an embarr-
asing situation with two or three as
pirants for Senator in the field. Sena-
tor Simmons does not object on the
primary plan and why any of his
friends should oppose it, passeth our
our understanding. In the only Sena-
torial primary. ever held in North
Carolina Mr.. Simmons won over one
OF the States best and noblest sons
by a very decisive majority and il
would not seem that he has any thing
to e at the hands of the people"
That we stated the position Of
our seniour Senator correctly i.
evinced, Enthusiastically, by tn,
following interview given tt

the State papers on Friday:

pie, and not because either my OPP
ponents or myself think it will be to
our advantage. / repeat that 1 hope
the convention will call a primary,
and it is my opinion that the interest
of the party will be subserved there
by"
This emphatic statement Of
Senator Simmons completely re-
flutes the suggestions made by adj
vocates of the Statewide primary
bill, during the pendancy of the
measure before the recent Gener-
al Assembly, duplicating Mr.. Sim
mons in the fight against it. At
that very time the Senator was
advocating a resolution in con-
gress providing for the election of
United States Senators by direct
vote of the people, and he cannot,
in fairness, be held responsible
for the position taken by some of
his friends in the Legislature,
who opposed the primary bill of
their own volition. 1t was a
sweeping measure, involving
nominations of all candidates of
both parties) from Senator down
and many members questioned
the wisdom of enacting such a
law at this time, in the absence of
any pronounced sentiment favor
able thereto upon the part Of the
people. But Senator Simmons did
not interfere in the fight, either
one way or the other.
In the interview quoted above
Senator Simmons shows a perfect
willingness to risk his political
fortunes in the hands of the dem
ocratic people of North Carolina.
And he is eternally right in as
Stunning "that the convention will
settle this question in accordance
with it's views as to what will be
for the best interest of the party |
and the people," and not because
he Or his opponents may think
such a course would be to their
advantage. The interests of the
should be the first consider
alton in selecting candidates for
any. Office and Senator Simmons
strikes a responsive cord in set-I
ting forth his willingness to sub
NIT to the arbitrament of the
party convention.
Senator Simmons evidently has
no idea of "getting away FROM
the people who made him Sena-
tor in a popular primary eleven
years ago by nearly $4,000 major
ity. He keeps an ear to the
ground and usually strikes at an
opportune time. We believe with
him that the best interest of the
will be subserved by a SEN
atorial primary and hope the state
convention next year will reach a
conclusion.
