pride forces them into seclusion.
Social workers are now being
trained in all the great cities with a
view to throwing more sunshine and
companionship into secluded and lone
ly lives. The school-houses are being
utilized as social centers, where lee
lures and moving picture entertain
ments and dancing draw crowds, held
under proper restraint by skilled so
cial workers.
In social circles where diamonds
and monkey parties and vegetable
balls prevail, there are always certain
individuals with special talents as so,

A SPECIAL ELECTION
Bridge Propositions Will No Doubt
Carry. Mile: Wins By
Small Margin.

The special bridge election
held the attention of the voters
over the county Tuesday. In
Ekalaka 213 voters cast their bal
lots, an exceedingly large turn
out considering the weather con-
ditions. Some fifty other reg
istered voters came in to vote
but as their names were not
found in the registration books
sent out to the judges they were
disappointed in not getting to
vote. Several voters came from
a distance of twenty-five miles to
vote upon the bridge question,
only to find that their names had
been left off of the Ekalaka pre-
cinct register. Many of these
were residents Of the Sykes and
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1912-02-23

101 Ranch precincts but as no
judges had been appointed at
these places they came here to
vote, this being their old pre-
cinct. The voters in the Midland
precinct were obliged to also GO
back home without voting, the
county clerk failing SO send them
ballots for this purpose. Last
evening the report from Miles
City gave the number of precincts
heard from at 22 with "a still
to hand in their returns. The
majority for the Miles City bridge
at that time was about 351 and
it is predicted that when all re-
turns are in that this bridge prop
osition will carry by about Is
votes. The following is the re-
turns from several Of the pre-
cincts on the different bridge
propositions as given US by'phone
messages from different parts of
the county. These figures can
not therefore be taken as the
official count but will give us
some idea of the wishes of the
majority of the voters.

Fate of the Has Beens

Supt Graves of the King Home for Old Men,
says that only one in ten thousand is selfsup-
porting at 70 years of age that there are now 1125
OOO former wageearners, 65 more years old, de-
pendent upon charity and that in these days of high
efficiency tests, industrial old age has smtten many
who are fit to work
Under our present wage system and our other
economic arrangements, the struggle against penni-
Less Old age is well nigh hopeless in millions of cases.
It is true too, that in this era when ones efficiency
must measure from 70 to 80 per cent of perfect ser
vice, the age Of enforced retirement is lowering.
But the people are already working on at least
two propositions for ameioration of this evil con-
dition One of these is the proposition for mini
mum wage. The other is for conservation of the
physical ability which remains after the age of 65
years more.
The lifelong wageearner is going to get larger
proportion OF what he produces and the backto-the
SOL movement really means much for the fellow who
mas been crowded out by the higher efficient, for
there IS hardly any age limit to the profitableness
OF the man OF the farm garden Multitudes of men
want to get away from the wage earning grind but
they maven the capital. Both the democratic and
