The farmer vote" is a
force that has heretofore
never been considered in
Montana politics. AT the
last two county conventions
of both parties in Teton
county there were no "dry
farmers present. Most of
the homesteaders had come
in too brief a time before to
become voters in the state,
consequently they refrained
from taking active interest.
But they will be in the mid
die of the fray next year and
will be a potent factor in the
politics of this county and
state. Most of them have
come from states where the
political game is played with
considerable fnesse, conse-
quently they are no novices.
lust now they are discussing
the need for better road,
fence and herd laws and they
will insist on legislation along
these lines. Our farmers
will be .'feeling their OATS
after harvesting a big crop
this season; they will no long
er be prescribed ones. They
will get into the thick of
things now and will insist on
the choosing of men who
are in complete sympathy
with their interests.
We are surprised at and
pleased with you, Brother
Guthrie. Faith, sir, we did
used to think that you were
a solemn, owlish fellow with
but scant merriment in your
cosmos. But we are learn
ing that you are a nimble
wit, a deXterouS fenCer with

whites you observe all the
ethics of journalistic knight
hood. In short, we are
learning that you are a good
sport" Lay on, good friend,
lay on, and damned be he
who has started something
and then squeals enough"
Financially, this Cut Bank
community is at a lower ebb
now than it is apt to be for a
long time again. Our farm
ers have used all their resour-
ces in preparing for this
years harvest and in buying
the necessary machinery to
take care of it.
About six thousand acres
of grain will be in the shock
by the last of this week and
there is nothing finer in
Montana Or the Northwest
than this grain. Despite the
fact that financial conditions
in the nation are not the very
best this crop is going to
stimulate activity, renew
energy and confidence in a
large degree and Cut Bank
will be a busy shopping place
this fall and winter.
Last spring, according to
very careful estimates, about
$40, 900 was sent out of this
community for seed and feed.
This year we will have plen-
ty of feed and some grain to
sell. Our fine flax crop will
bring in thousands of dollars.
While we are pig-tied,
bound and gagged by bureau
cratic snails at Washington,
who, because they at some
remote day expect to irri-
gate a half a township north
Of Cut Bank have withdrawn
from entry a vast domain in
this section, yet we refuse to
be killed off completely.
We are going to move ahead
this fall in spite of great
handicaps. The future real
ly looks roseate. There is
no spot in this vast northwest
that has any fairer prospect
than ours. We can't be kept
down. We are moving up.

that the health of people from temperate
chimes and living in the tropics may be

elements OF proper care 10 exercise The
observation Is made that Americans as

finds that an intimate relationship may
easily be recognized between heart af-
fections and habitual use Of alcohol In
military exertions. His conclusion is
that 1.-The use Of alcohol as daily drink.
as q refreshment rewarding special exer-
ton, as a means Of diversion or as a
dispeller of care, should be emphatically
opposed for reasons of health in any ex-
petition in the tropics
In this is another potent suggestion for
men from temperate zones who take up
residence in the tropics Plain water or
water seasoned with fruit juice is the
best means of shaking thirst and supply
ing fluid to the system. Too many
Americans make the frequently fatal mis-
take of carrying their eating and drink
ing habits with them into the tropics.
Moderation in food and drink is best in
all times and places, but immoderation
in these things is especially dangerous IN
those lands where the sun beats down
with vertical ardor.

Millions of public records are exposed
to loss by fire in the governments rented
offices in Washington, and in numerous
cases the conduct Of public business Is
seriously hampered.
The government has been a renter or
lessee of privately owned buildings ever
since the seat Of government was remov-
ed to the Territory Of Columbia. At
that time the Treasury, on the site OF
the south front of the present structure,
was the only government building ready
as quarters for an executive department.
The War Department was housed. In q
dwelling house about opposite the hotel
kept by Peggy O'Nears father, and the
Post Office Department had rooms in
Blodget's Hotel. which stood either on
or near the site now covered by the
southwest corner of the old post office
building. Other departments and ohices
of the government were in private build
ings. The government Of the United
States has never been able to overcome
the bad start in this matter which It
made in Washington in 1900.

Progress and Reaction.

Is not the word "reactionary'' being
used a little too fiuently-a little
loosely? You hear it applied I'm both
parties. Mr.. Martin, the minority
leader in the Senate. and Mr.. Mann.
the minority leader in the House. are
both so tagged.
Properly speaking. a reactionary is
one who resists progress, or would
undo progress. He is the superlatiye
or the standpatter. The latter, when
named. was well named. The Dingley
tariff law was the issue. and he favored
hoiding on to it-standing pat. He
thought 1t good enough not only for
that time. but for a long time to come.
The standpatter, however, was de,
feated, and. strictly considered, is now
no more. Tariff revision, despite his
protest. was ordered, and has taken
place. 1t did not satisfy the country.
and further revision Is on the cards in
Congress.
But where Is the reactionary in either
party? Who is proposing to go back
TO the Dingley law? Who hopes to
nullify the verdict of last November?
Further revision is a certainty unless
the advocates OF revision charged by
the people with bringing 1t about make
mess OF their Instructions
1t is not a question OF reaction, but
OF progress. How much progress
should be attempted at this time? How
much does the situation seem to war
rant? This is the line of division in
the democratic party, and, in a way, In
the republican party. Should the dem
ocrats bite or more than they are able
TO masticate-as the late DR.. William
Everett of Massachusetts, would have
put it-they will blunder. Should the
republicans resist all revision. simply
because Of the democratic hallmark
they will blundef. A condition.

theory. confronts both parties.

Governments Rented Quarters.

The governments building program at
Washington always lags a generation or
so behind its needs. II lags not be.
cause the government is too poor TO build,
not because the need for new. large and

nZcd. and not because the waste and
extravaganza Of conducting the public

rated and i'll suited to the requirements
is not generally admitted. Yet the gov

Make Arbor Day Practical.

4 rom Tue OOStou lTdusCTipt.
Arbor day was instituted a number Of
years ago with an excellent practical pur-
pose in view. 1t was suggested by the
rapid exhaustion of our forests and the
apparent indifference of the public to the
conservation of tree life. Its observance
has doubtless been productive of some
benefit. 1t may be credited to some extent
to the more responsible feeling with re-
spect to the preservation or reproduction
Of our forests and the more individual
trees which furnish shade and contribute
to the beauty of the landscape. But in
too many cases the tree planting which
Arbor day proclamations exhort us to
promote Is more honOred in the breach
than the observance, or else 1t Is a
mere ceremonial that is satisfied with
sticking a sapling into the ground and
leaving 1t. with no care except such as
nature provides thereafter. We fear that
this purely perfunctory observance is the
kind that we give to the day In Massa-
chusetts.

Washington an Educational Center.

II was OeCldreQ at INo alumni OlI--
ner of George Washington University Sat-
urday night that the university is prac-
ticalIy out of debt: that it's endowment
funds Of several hundred thousand dol
lars are represented by school and hos
pital buildings of greater value which are
used by the university, and which, being
rent-saving. are thus indirectly revenue
producing; that the expenses of the in
stitution are not permitted to exceed its
revenues; that an audit company SUPER
vises its finances; that its faculties are
capable. loyal. self-sacrifcing and en-
thusiastic; and that over 1900 students
profit by their teachings.
In short. the university is in suitable
condition to receive that adequate en-
dowment. either from a private bene-
factor or from Uncle Sam, without
which no great modern university in
the world is successfully maintained.
Washington is interested in this uni
versity. not only in itself, but as fur
nishing the test case in which the
question is to be decided whether the
National Capital is to develop. as
George Washington hoped and planned,
as university center, or whether it
is to be killed as a source Of higher
education, and such education is to
be doled out to it, like monopoly
controlled oil. exclusively from a
Maryland city or a Virginia village.
Is there not one American millionaire
who agrees with George Washington con-
corning the wisdom from the national
and patriotic viewpoint of establishing a
great university at the seat of govern
ment. where millions of dollars of
available educational plant have been
accumulated by the government? Is
there not one Independent operator in
