How Long?

Last Friday evening at the hour
of 1870 a local citizen was walking
toward town. Passing the scarlet
district sounds of revelry fell upon
his ears. Five men on horseback
were lined up at the door. Pro
family and obscene language, clank-
ing of glasses, feminine and mascu-
line shrieks could be heard for over
a. block away.
Farmers and their wives and
children were driving to and from
town. There are respectable homes
and families within this zone. 1t is
right in the shadows of the finest
school building in northern Mon
tana. These scenes are enacted
daily and nightly.
How long will the decent citizens
of Cut Bank, with pride and patriot
ism for their town and concern for
the purity and innocence of child
rem tolerate this condition?

This Logic
Applies Here

In another column the Hill coun-
ty comrlittee presents good argu-
ment for the cutting up old Cho-
team county-because it is too large.
1t has been demonstrated in many
instances in North Dakota and ot-
her western states that the small
counties can be run at a much less
expense than is possible in the larger
counties. 1t is almost impossible
for three men acting as county COM
missioners to have a personal know
ledge of what is going on in the
great big counties such as Montana
has. The expense account of sher
iff's Office shows what it costs that
office to do business. The swamp
ed condition of the county survey
or's Office is good evidence that
there is too much territory to han
die. The tax rate has not diminish
ed with the increased valuation, be-
cause there are thousand and one
things to look after.-Chester Sig
