The Maine Central Railroad Co. has
issued orders for the arrest of every
person who evades fare, and the many
tramps who have heretofore beat their

will in the future take their chances.
Not day passes, the railroad officials
say but the trains, especially the freights,

NEWS ENDORSED

On May the oath the electorate
of Meaghcr Co. declared in no un-
certain terms. that this county
should continue to transact its
business in the present building.
The News was avowedly opposed
to the bonding of the county in
the sum of 100000. We waged a
campaign through the columns of
this paper in opposition to the
proposition that was always ag-
greSSive and sometimes heated.
Our reasons for opposition were
valid and logical and were endOr-
sed by the voters on election day.
We further insist through the
columns of the News, that no reg
istratiOn was required of the voter,
and that any clectOr, who could
meet all other qualifications, eX-
cept registration was entitled to
vote, the Judges of election in
several precincts endorsed this
position and permitted those that
were not registered to vote. Upon
the latter question, hinged the
contest that was filed in the dis
trict court, the object being to
throw out the vote in such pre-
cincts, in which unregistered vot-
ers were allowed to vote. The
opinion of Judge E. X. Cheadle,
the trial Judge, appears elsewhere
in this paper and needs no com
mcnt The Judges of election il
the precincts of Harlowton, Nihill
and Okla are entirely eXhonerated
the position of the paper was ap
proved by the people and sustain
ed by the court.

PRIMARY MEASURE

SO far the members of the recent
legislature are not falling over each
other in stating their position up
on the bill drafted by the primary
commission, and at present it looks
as if an extra session is hardly
probable.

question square up to the members
and require Onl y the simple an
swer yes" or no The bill as
prepared is the Oregon plan, the
same as endorsed by the democrats
at their last convention. 1t has
the enforcement of enough repub
licans to insure its passage with
solid democratic support. What
are some of these recalcitrant
members going to do? There is nc
chance to dodge this time gentle

Mr.. A. j. Earling, president of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway offers a valuable silver cup
for the best white oats grown in
the United States during 1911, and
exhibited at the American Land &
Irrigation Exposition, to be held
at Madison Square Garden, New
York, November 3 to -, 1911.
RULES AND REGULATIONS
The following rules and regula-
tions will govern the entries and
awards at the above exposition:
1. Entries will be received from

3. The oats must be grown dur
ing 1911.
4. The oats must be taken
from a field of not less than one
| ID acre.
5. No distinction will be made
between oats grown under irriga-
tion and oats grown without irri-
cation.
6, Grain samples sent in be-
come the property of the railroad
and will not be returned.
Z. Clipped oats will be disqual-
flied from the contest.
8. Weight, uniformity, color.
weight of hull in proportion to
kernal, freedom from smut, weed

points to be considered by the
judges.
8 Each contestant is required
to furnish sworn statement that he
is the actual grower; that the grain
was grown during 1911; that the
oats were taken from field of not
less than one Cd measured acre,
giving the size of the field in acres
with total yield of standard bush

ed by the grower. 1t is required

SUPPORT HOME INDUSTRIES

Whenever a plan is suggested
for the development of the town
the first suggestion, invariably is
Bring in more industries. 1T is
customary to throw out all sorts
of inducements for the location of
factories, including exemption
from taxes for a time, free sites
and bonuses, and these methods
have contributed so much toward
The Harlowton news., 1911-07-21

building up hundreds of prosper
Gus municipalities that their wis
dom cannot be questioned. Any
thing that will add to our desir-
able population, that will give
employment to men who support
families and thus contribute to
the general welfare, is at all times
desirable.
But the people who join hearth
ly in the work of bringing in new
industries, and who show the
greatest enthusiasm over this
feature of the public work in
which all good citizens share,
sometimes are the first to forget
that the new industries brought
in and the old ones already here
require continuous support and,
failing to get it, become a hind
rance rather than an aid to devel-
opment.
We are apt to overlook, too, the
fact that the home merchant is
entitled to as much consideration
as the factory which we have OBJ
tanned by special effort. The
merchant is necessity-even
more so than the factory; for who
cares to live in a community
where there are no stores, or
where the stores are closed and
barred and the merchants have
moved away, forced to other fields
by lack of patronage?
The retail store, properly con.
Quoted, is an industry that should
have the support of every loyal
citizen. Our pride in the home
| town is measured by our willing.
ness to support it's merchants and
it's industries.
1T is not necessary to build a
Chinese wall around our cOmmun-
ity-tO refuse to buy outside
when we can do 50 to advantage
But the man who will send away
for something he can buy at home
on as good or better terms needs
education and lacks loyalty. Some
times, unfortunately, the very one
who should be least liable to this
criticism, the local merchant, is
given to sending abroad for things
which he ought to buy from his
neighbors. Then, again, there is
the farmer who finds it easier to
mail his orders to a big city thai
to come to town. Often he l.
handicapped by bad roads anC
thus has a valid excuse. But he
ought to be able to buy by mai
from our own merchants as safely
and as advantageously as from
someone at a distance with whom
he has no acquaintance. If he is
not furnished the facilities it il
time for the improvement of oul
merchandising methods. And he
ought to have good roads tina,
would make trip to town a plea
sure.
Much remains to be done tt
strengthen our local business in
terests. We ought to give rea
support to any move that vii
tend to keep our money at home.

Close Of the Base
ball Season
CCnrsOn.l

Manager Louis Smith OF the
CIarksbnrg baseball team has just
impaired the news that his team
VIII close the season against several
OF the strongest teams in the coun-
try. Starting the first Of the season
against weak teams the Clarksburg
team has slowly gained ground and
prominence in the baseball world
and 1t is meeting stronger teams
than the first part OF the sea-
son and is getting away with the
bacon.
The Clarksburg team is now rec
.ognized as one of the fastest skid
teams in this part of the state, one,
that will give any Of them ~ run. for
their money at any time and any
place. Manager Smith states that
commencing the hrst part Of Sep
Itember a good bunch Of strong
teams will be played. Bookings have
already been completed with the
wheeling Central League team for
Saturday and sunday games, while
the East Liverpool team will also APP
pear here ON a Saturday and Sun
day, while the Pittsburg Collegians
viii again be seen in action here on
"a Sunday,
The game for next Sunday has not
been definitely arranged as yet, al
though negotiations are on with the
Piedmont team, one Of the strongest
in that part of the state. The Par
kersburg team wants next Sundays
date, but Manager Smith hardly
thinks it good enough to go against
his youngsters. Still, Parkersbura
broke even here this season, and the
Parkersburg manager states that at
that time he did not have his team
together, and that If given another
date he will place upon the field a
much stronger combination than
that which appeared here the first
part of the season.
To top the present baseball season
on in a grand hurrah. Manager
Smith is striving very hard to get a
National League team here. Xl-;
actly what team he is after is not

that he is dickering with the
