John Mccormick Of Two Mile. 10 Daw-
son County. was IN town Tuesday and vas
complaining bitterly about the conditions
Of tn. road from Two Mile to Hardscrsbb,s
in Dawson County. However. he and
others had made complaint to the Dawson
County Commissioners and they had prom.
ised to better the conditions.
From Mr. McCormick's story the old
road which has been travelled for many
years, between Two Mile and Hardscrab
BILE has been closed up BY farmers who
have claims in the valley. Travellers from
East Charlie Creek. West Charlie Greek.
Middle Fork and Redwater. all have 70
come through this pass in order to get TO
the Culber,son ferry.
This road being closed up causes the
farmers to make a wide detour over tie
hills which are impossible for big loads Of
grain. Mr.. Mccormick said that the
farmers using this road were ready AID
willing to contribute from a dollar to i've
dollars apiece to have this road opened.
and would agree to build the bridge on
Mr.. Nelson's place which is very much
needed.
Culbertson is vitality interested in this
road as several thousand bushels Of gram
will be hauled into town from there Il the
farmers can get Il here.

PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICANS
The Republican Speakers at the Raj
ly Showed the Difference Be-
tween Progressive Republi-
cans and Pro. Bull MOOsers

Meyers are both on the ticket and
both will be elected. for they are
both the right kind OF men.
Senator Meyers told how he had
been Progressive Republican for
many years, and said that he was
one Of the staunchest supporters
that Theodore Roosevelt had up
to the time that Teddy dropped his
allegiance to the Republican party
and became bull moose The
Senator is great admirer OF La
Toilette OF Wisconsin and told Of
the reforms inaugurated in that
state by him. Senator Meyers en-
dorsed Senator LaFollette and said
that he would yet be the Republi-
can nominee for President OF the
United States.
Senator Meyers went to Chicago
to 10 what little was in his power
for the nomination of Theodore
Roosevelt at the Republican Ma
tional Convention and stood by
HIM through the strife and turmoil
during the first five days OF that
convention. When il was seen
that there was absolutely no chance
for the nomination OF Teddy and
Roosevelt refused to step aside
allow Hadley OF Missouri, Cum
mings OF Iowa. LaFollette OF Wis
consin or any other Progressive
Republican to become the party
nominee, he refused to support
him further. His idol had fallen.
The Taft leaders went to Teddy
with a proposition that inasmuch
as there had been more or less
hard feelings sngendered against
both the leading candidates, and
that q third man could better unite
the party. Taft would step aside
if Teddy would and they would al
low Teddy to name the man. To
this proposition Roosevelt replied,
"No, l am the man, and no other
Progressive Republican shall have
the nomination with my consent. I"
Roosevelt's action at this time
practically forced the nomination
Of President Taft.
Senator Meyers said that the
principals Of the Republican party
under which the people had pros
pered for fifty years, was to his
mind greater than the personal am
bition Of any one man and he fo'
his part refused to follow Teddy
INTO the bull moose party. He
showed how all the reforms fel

which the people were clamoring
were gradually being worked out
by the progressive element of the
Republican party and that they
would continue to be worked out
as that element in the party be-
came more and more dominant
Senator Meyers told how the
Governors Of eight states inaugur.
ated the demand for Roosevelt for
a third time, but that out of those
eight only two. viz. Governor John.
son of California and Governor
Stubbs had followed Teddy in the
formation Of new party. Out Of

welt on the Republican ticket. only
three had followed him to the bull
moose party. These three were
Senator Dixon, Senator Clapp Of
Minnesota, and one other whose
name the writer does not remem-
ber. All the rest are still Progress
sive Republicans and expect to
work the reforms they stand for
from within the lines of the Grand
Old Party.
Senator Meyers showed how the
formation of the bull moose party
was delaying this work OF reform
by dividing the forces of the re.
form element OF both the old
parties.

the Opera Hall last Friday night
the hall was crowCed, about 400
people being IN attendance, among
whom were a number oil ladies'.
Paul Babcock, candidate for
county attorney, acted as chairman
OF the meeting and introduced the
speakers III his usual dignitied
manner.
Lewis Terwilliger, Republican
nominee for superintendent of pub
lie Instruction, was the first speak
er, and called attention to the re-
cent change OF text books IN Mon
tana which he declared was un-
necessary and uncalled for and
called attention to the plank in the
Republican State Platform which
declares for changes only when
absolutely needed. He produced

Charles M. Mccoy, the present
State Auditor, and candidate for
reelection, spoke briefly about the
duties OF his Office and gave short
outline of his work in the state.
He is clean man and deserves
reelection.

was Progressive Republican, but
not an orator.

State Treasurer, Was present bu,

announced himself as really a non

Fighting German Potash Monopoly

From CassierS Magazine.
 The extent to which the German potash monopoly has stimulated the investiga- tons into internal sources of supply will be realized when 1t is understood that in Ne year 1900 the imports of German potash into America amounted In value 10 $4,000.000; that in 1910 the amount reached more than $ll 500,0O0, and that, according to the customs returns for 191l as esti- mated by the bureau of statistics of the department of commerce and labor. the imports for last year show q value of nearly $l5,000.0O0, or R3,G0),0o0. When it is understood that large portion of the grain produced in America goes abroad. and that all the potash which must re- place the constituents which 1t draws from the soil must thus be imported. tho desirability of developing an internal source supply of potash fertilizer will be realized
 It is well known that the grantes and feldspar rocks contain enormous amounts of potash, but in this form 1t Is insoluble and unavailable for use as a fertilizer. There is, however, in the leucite area of Wyoming, the potash-rieh rock of Zirkei Mesa, from which 1t is hoped that a process for commercial treatment Is being evolved which will solve the problem and render the United States independent of the overbearing German monopoly.

their faults were precisely the faults of their time2-sI If Abraham lied to Pharaoh we may be quite sure that he was fair ly typical and representative man of his day. Jacob, in the same way, was no worse man than Esau. though his faults were different. David was probably as clean a king as existed In all Asia. The truth of this is evident to any student of Oriental courts. The matrimonial rela. tons of primitive or semi-primitive socie- ty show in the Bible, because 1t gives us a fairly adequate account of certain semi primitive men. But my friends mistake arises from supposing that God ought not to have anything to do with such faulty characters. l am sure he will admit that this is not defensible. If truth could only come through ideal persons, we should hardly get any truth. because there are no ideal persons The only conceivable means of revelation and Scripture coming into existence was through men as men were.
 The same criticism belongs to those, by the way, who insist that if a man sins he can't be called a Christian, and that if a church has none but sinners in it it can't be a true church. Whereas there are no Christians who do not sin, and there can be no church if only the sinless are church members.
 Hence we must recognize the principle that the grace of God comes down to the level of where men actually are. Evolu- ton Shows the might of God as truly in the humble daisy and in the raucous- throated crow as in the stately cedar or in the thrilling notes of the mocking bird. He is in us to save us, humbling Himself to the lowliness of the babe and to the depravity of the sinner.
 Hence, too. the truth concerning Him has to grow and has grown, so that my correspondent himself, for instance, is
