The Montana newspapers are
boosting Governor Norris for the
position of secretary OF the interior
in President Wilson's cabinet. The
campaign is being conducted with
vigor, and ought to bring results.
There is no better posted man in the
United States on the needs Of the
west than Governor Norris. lie is .
typical westerner and one Of the
greatest boosters in the country. We
have had too many men in that office
who gained knowledge Of conditions
by riding through the public domain
in a palace car. They do not know
the real hardships of pioneer life in
trying to establish home by making
the wild prairie blossom ~ rose,
and have twisted Interpretation Of
the public land laws, which were
passed for the benefit of the people,
to such an extent that it is almost
impossible for q poor man to acquire
q farm by demonstrating. President
Wilson will make an instantaneous
hit with millions Of people who did
not vote for him by recognizing the
call Of the west to place Montana
great democratic governor into the
office Of secretary Of the interior.

HAS JUDITH GAP A CnANcEp

The following 10 taken from las,
weeks Harlowton News:
Some Of the citizens of Harlow
ton have been busy figuring out
the possibility Of whether Har-
lowton will get the county seat or
il it will 60 to Judith Gap. They
have been studying the registra-
ton for each Of the voting pre-
cincts and have arrived 1T the
conclusion that it will be 4 very
close race.
They figure that Judith Gap
will get the following votes:--
From Fergus county 20 votes and
from Meagher $40, making 40
votes in all, while Harlowton
will get 345 votes from Meagher
county and IS votes from Sweet
grass making total OF 41O.
From present indications it will
be verv close. This is not max
ing any difference to the work
the citizens of HarlOWtOn are do
ing for the creation Of Wheatland
county, rs they would much
rather have the county seat in
Judith Gap than in White Sui
phur Springs, on account Of the
distance to travel. TO go to the
present county seat requires
three days. while we could run up
to Judith Gap and back the same
day. Nevertheless we intend to
make strong fight for the coun-
ty seat.
The News probably published thi
b joke. But announcement i
made at this time that we are in tn
race for the county seat of Wheat
land and in to stay.
The gentlemen who were here las
week from Harlowton said the,

How to Have the Best Cough
Syrup and Save 81, by
Making 1t at Homo.


Cough medicines, as a rule, contain a
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of graduated sugar, add
II pint of warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
Ii you will then put 21a ounces of
Pinex $50 cents WORTHY in a pint bottle,
and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, YOU
will have as much cough SYRUP as as YOU
could buy ready made for $3.50. 1t
keeps perfectly.
And you will find it the best cough
cough. You can feel it take hold-usi-
ally stops the most severe cough, in "a
hours. 1t is Just laxative enough, has a
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
1t is splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group. hoarseness, asth-
ma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex is the most valuable concentra-
ted compound of Norway white pine ex-
tract, rich in g,iaiacol and all the heal
ing pine elements. No other prepara-
ton will work in this formula.
This recipe for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used and priced in thousands of homes
in the United States and Canada. The
plan has often been initiated but never
successfully
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction. or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for YOU. If not, send to The
Pincx Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind.

already outgrown the present factory,
and when the company asked for extra
floor spaces the citizens of this town
very generously subscribed the re-
adired amount for an extension.
The prospects for the growth of the
town are better now than they have
been for a number of years. Nearly all
the residences and stores are occupied
at present, bringing back the older
inha bitants who were obliged to locate
in other places during the dull time. A

evening, Dec. 18th. Work on the ex-

Monday morning, and will be rushed
