CAMPAIGN NOT STARTED.

The big guns of the national cam
paign are being primed and made
ready for Il tremendous battle this
fall. The most eloquent speakers of
all time will take the stump, and soon
the welkin will be made to ring in
thunder tones.
Whether the people will be aroused
sufficiently to see what is good for
them, is doubtful. At present there
is no interest being displayed in ma
tional affairs. Perhaps this is caused
by the bosses Of both parties hereto
fore debating the candidates and pol
icies of the country to such an en-
tent that the voter has come to be-
lieve all that is expected Of him is to
remain quiet until election day, and
then to have some local boss tell him
who to vote for.

in politics. He should SO inform
himself concerningt the capabilities OF
each candidate that he can give IN i'll
intelligent reason why he is support.

DESERT LAND ACT
ALMOST NULLIFIED

Bozeman, Aug. l3.--By decision
received today at the local land office
confirming the local decision in the
case of Mrs. +. l.. Houston, contes-
tant, against Il. W. Spaulding, ~ des-
ert land entryman, the desert land
act, as it has ordinarily been inter-
preted heretofore, is virtually repeal
ed, according to the opinion of the
register Of the local office. The con-
testant alleged that the land in q,les-
ton was not desert land, as other
land in the neighborhood Of a similar
character, under modern methods of
farming, was yielding profitable crops
without irrigation. The decision
recognizes the modern methods Of
farming dry land and hold that under
the circumstances the land cannot be
classified as desert land, aud gives
the case to the contestant. 1t is stat
ed by the attorney for the entryman
that the case will be appealed to the
secretary Of the interior. 1t is gen.
orally understood that the tract OF
land in question is substantially sim
l,r to much that has heretofore been
proved up OH as Il desert land claim
and it is believed that there are hum
dreds Of cases pending in the western
states which are likely to be affected
by the decision.

In local matters. there will be Il

know them. So it will not be hard
matter to pick out the best men:
When the time comes, the journal
will support certain men for local Of

you it is to your best interest to have
them elected, then do not vote for
them. The Journal will pick out the
best men, according to it's Judgment
and will give them loyal support.
