1t is well to remember that in France when the revolution
changed conditions from horrible injustice to very decent
public THE WORK WAS DONE BY LAWYERS, BY MEN
WHO HAD LEARNED TO THINK NO MAN WHO WAS

CHIEVEMENT-EXCEPT THE PART OF HOWLING WITH

TO APPLAUD THE EXECUTIONS.
What at the need heart and greater

This Arthur Young drawing is exaggerated and

These conditions will be remeded by

Bv DIR, CHARLES F. AKED

TT is asserted, perhaps with lit
tie knowledge and less judg-
ment. that Mrs Pankhursts
visit to America will be product
i've of wide results in the adop-
ton of policy of "militancy" by
American women.
1t is to be hoped these forecasts
are wrong. "Militancy," as now
understood and practiced, has
done untold harm in England;
has shocked and grieved the best
friends of woman suffrage among
men. and has done apparently
irreparable damage to women
themselves. Nothing in the world
can justify the action of the
Pankhurst circle and their fol-
lowers. But they lave been
driven into the irrationality of
crime by the more rcasonless
irrationality and more criminal
crimes of the Asquith Cabinet. In
America, between the Pacific and
the Atlantic, there is not the
shadow of a pretense that women
are driven or are likely to be
driven out of the path of orderly,
sane and healthy methods of ad-
VOCating n noble cause

Women Were Ignored.

There has been fer some years
an agitation for the amendment
Of the franchise and registration
laws. 4 took part in it myself.
Millions of men are without the
vote in Great Britain. Asquith
undertook to remedy this state of
things. But the demands of wom-
en- were ignored.
Mrs. Pankhurst and the women
who follow her could bear no
more. They had borne indecent
assault, imprisonment, the atroci-
ties of forcible feeding; some Of
them had suffered unto blood. But
this last insult, the enfranchise-
ment of unenfranchised men, on
whose behalf there has been only
slight and sporadic agitation. and
the denial to them of the vote they
claimed, seemed to them the last
indlgnity, the cruelest and cow
ardliest assault of all.
And they resorted to violence.
Here I part company from them.
They have committed assaults.
They have resorted to fire. They
have employed dynamite. They
have attacked the innocent as well
as the guilty, the openly sympa-
thetic friend as well as tire indif-
ferent person or the avowed oppo-
nent of their cause.
| can not be a party to wrong
doing.
While they were willing to suf-
fer wrong, I applauded them.
When they begin to do wrong it
is impossible longer to defend
them. 1t is not right to do wrong.
Bloodshed and crime. the torch,
gunpowder and dynamite are not
the weapons which I care to see
women employer men. either
in advocacy of mighty moral
movement in the dawn of the
twentieth century.

them outside; they were mauled
by blackguards. They continued
to go to meetings and to inter
rupt. The violence grew. Filthy
scoundrels offered themselves as
stewards" that is to say, as
chuckers-out, at meetings for the
opportunity it gave them of COM
hitting indecent assaults upon
women and girls in the act OF
carrying them and bundling them
out of meetings
The women were prosecuted;
not the Toughs. They were
charged with all sorts of fancied
Offenses, such as assaulting po-
icemen, etc. Had they paid the
small fines imposed the world
would have heard no more Of it.
But they refused to pay the fine,
and they went to jail. Here they
were treated as the worst OF
criminals are treated. Women OF
refinement, university women,
girls among the sweetest and most
engaging Of their sex, were forced
to strip, stand in a line of women
as nude as themselves, vicious
women, pickpoCkets, thieves and
criminals of every kind, waiting
for their bath, and go into the
same bath tub and the same wa
ter as these women had been in.
The prison system has been
changed because of the suffer
ings and through the agitation Of
these women.
The women refused food. Then
the Government adopted the foul
and disgusting practice Of forci-
BILE feeding. l believe that it is
entirely illegal l believe that if
the women had carried this mat
ter from court to court they would
have proved before the end that
the prison authorities had been
guilty Of assault. That is only an
opinion. The fact is clear that
atrocious and hideous cruelties
have been inflicted upon some of
the noblest women living upon the
earth at the present time.
Yet these things did not drive
the women to crime.
Asquith committed himself to a
great suffrage melsure-but it
was for men!

A Sympathetic Protest.

admired Mrs. Pankhurst and
I liked her daughter, Christabel. I
have opened my church to them
in Liverpool I have preached
sermons and made speeches in
defense of their militant methods.
ChristabeI Pankhurst spoke in my
church one evening in the early
days OF their agitation. Her
mother was present and begged
me to preach a sermon advocat-
ing their cause. I did.
Some Of the women members Of
my church went to prison. I sent
them flowers and wrote them let
ters of sympathy and encourage
ment, and commended their ac-
ton from the pulpit The last
meeting at which I spoke in Lon
don, previous to leaving England
to make my home in America,
was a meeting in Exeter Hall pre-
sided over by Mrs. Pankhurst,
and my fellow speakers that
night were Christabel Pankhurst,
Israel Zangwill and Philip Snow
den. Up to certain point in the
militant" movement I stood by
the side of these women and
spent time and money in their
behalf
mention these things for the
purpose of showing that mine is a
sympathetic protest and not a
hostile one.
The late Prime Minister Of
Great Britain, Sir Henry Camp
bell Bannerman, told them to
poster the Government. He told
them that his Cabinet was divid-
ed, and he advised them to make
themselves an irritant to politi-
clans. They did. And they were
treated with a brutality which
passes all belief. This phase of
the story has not been understood
in America. Elizabeth Robins, in
her fine story, THE Convert" has
told part Of it, but her book has
not been widely read here. She
has explained why one girl car
ried a dogwhip when she went to
meetings. A member of my
church, speaking in my church
after her release from prison, said,

made on her by the stewards" of
the meeting which she interrupt

1t is the custom in England to

Throw Friends
Off the Trail

In the parlance of the huntsman
Mr.. Clifford Moe and Miss Ann,
Cyr drew red herring across tb,
trail and threw their friends off the
track on Monday morning of thi.
week, by boarding the Burlington
dropping off at Conrad, proceeding
to secure the services of Rev
Father Dunno and then and there
entering into wedlock.
Announcements had been printed
late last week, setting the wedding
date for Friday, March %, but il
developed that this was a sly little
ruse on the part of the nuptial can
didates. Their getaway was not az
smooth as they had planned it, how
ever. At the station on Monday
morning few friends filled with
levity and large desire to derail
Cupid and cross his wires as much
as possible, tried to purloin grips
and other paraphernalia, but the
alert groom-to-be forestalled them
in their nefarious plottiugs.
Mr.. and Mrs. Moe returned to
Kevin Monday and autoed out to
the groom's ranch in Pleasant VAL
ley, chuckliug, no doubt, over their
clever evasion of a lot of deep, dark
plotting and noisy serenades. But
the end is not yet, say the plotters,
so we'll just ... " watch and wais.
Mr., and Mrs. Moe are favorites
in the young set here and while
their friends are laying schemes to
have little jollitication at their ex-
pense, they are also fervently wish
ing that their union may be a hap
py one and that never a cloud may
cast a shadow DER their Pleasant
Valley home.

Trial is On

The trial of Mitchell Peterson
and his sons Charles and Walter
Peterson, stockmen in the BrowL-
ing country, began Wednesday in
the United States district court at
Great Falls before Judge George
M. Bournquin sitting with jury.
The charge against the men is that
of grand larceny in which the goods
and property alleged to have beed
stolen included certain cattle and
horses. This is the second trial,
the defendants having been found
guilty at former hearing but the
verdict was set aside because of
certain irregularities.

SET JUNE Is
ASTHEDATE
Both 'Toole and Pondera to
Have Elections on
Same Date

The upshot of two-day
session of the board of COM
missioners, sitting to hear
protests to the creation of
Pondera county, was that
an election was called for
June Is, to vote on the ques-
tion of the creation of both
Pondera and Toole counties.
The Cut Bank section as
far as 81 north and 3 west re-
mains in Pondera county un-
der this arrangement. One
tier of townships along the
Dominion line, to the divide,
thence to the G. N. right of
way and eastward to Bonn
bay, a township wide, is the
rather strange contour of the
proposed portion of Toole
county to be sliced out OF
old Teton, and a strip is also
to be taken from Hill-pro-
vided that portion will con-
sent, by casting more than 81
per cent. of its vote in favor
of the proposition.

Sudden Switch

County Assessor James Innes ar.
rived in Conrad this week armed
with the documents to commence
the annual assessment. The word as
sessment brings to mind the thought
of how many lies are told about
this time of year about the value OF
property owned and reminds us OF
a story of a farmer who was busy
in his fields and was approached by
a stranger, who admired the fine
horses, cattle, buildings and mach
inery owned by the man. Yes
said the farmer, Il wouldn't take
$500 for that horse, and that house
is worth $4,000, and | consider
myself worth good many thous.
and dollars"
Say" said the stsanger, dc

I am the assessor"
Well" said the farmer" dc
you know who you are talking to-
| am the biggest liar in this coun.
ty."--Conrad Observer.

Relay Firemen
To Climb Hills

| Ihe new system inaugurated b.
the Great Northern two weeks ago
to put relay firemen on Mallet en-
glnes on east bound trains at Rex
ford and Essex did not work out
satisfactorily, and it has now beer
arranged to put on relief tiremen at
these stations instead.
To keep the big mallet engines
hot over the long division and up
the steep grade has beeu very try
ing on the men and almost beyond
the limit of human endurance, and
it has been agitated for some time
to pui two men on these large en-
gines. 1t was not thought that this
would work out with satisfaction SO
it was settled in a conference in St.
Paul between the representative OF
the tiremen and officials to put on
the relay fremen, but after trying
it out for a few days this had to be
abandoned on account of the trouble
which 1t caused, and therefore the
relief tiremen were put on.
The lob has been assigned to
three of the oldest men, who want
it, at Rexford and Essex. At Essex
the relief firem..n fires the engine
up the hill to Summit while the re-
gular man takes rest. From Sum-
NIT the regular man continues to
run to Cut Bank and the relief man
dead heads back to Esse.. on the
helper, or the first train west and
then takes his turn out again, first
in first out.
Starting out of Troy, going east,
the regular fireman gets relief at
Rexford. The relief man takes the
engine up the grade to Stryker and
then deadheads back while the re-
gular man takes the train into
Whitefsh. w Whitetish Pilot.

Parents Mourn

Friends of Editor and Mrs. A. b.
Guthrie IN all parts of Teton coun-
ty are extending to them their
sincere sorrow in their recent great
affiiction, the loss of their daughter,
Nina Bess. aged fourteen years.
The following account is taken
from the Conrad Independent:
The many friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. B. Guthrie. of Choteau,
were deeply grieved last week to
learn of the death of their only
daughter, Nina Bess, in California
on Sunday, March 16. Mrs. Guthrie
went to California early in the
winter on account of the illness of
one of their younger children, and
about two weeks ago the little
daughter was stricken with spinal
meningitis. Mr.. Guthrie was ad-
vised of the daughters illness, and
fastened to join his family, and
every effort of loving parents and
medical skill was lent to restore the
little one to health, but without
avail, and she passed away on Sun
day.

Another Fireman
Loses His Life

Whitefsh, March 2 At b e
horribly mutilated remains of Guy
Phipps, the Great Northern fireman
who was killed at Essex Saturday
night were brought in today on No.
8, and have been placed in the
Waggener undertaking parlors a.
waiting word from his parents what
disposition shall be made. Phipps
was in the helper service on Essex
hill. His engineer, Alex Pauline,
had placed the engine in on the side
track and they were both going to
have their supper. .Phipps remain
ed few minutes to fix up the fire
and that was the last seen of him
alive. A half hour later the train
men on the snow dozer noticed
what they thought was bundle of
old clothes that was being rolled a.
long ahead of the plow. They
stopped to investigate and found it
to be the body of a man crushed
and cut so that it was impossible to
recognize who it was. A search in
the pockets revealed some papers
which identified the body TO be that
of Phipps. The accident is thought
to have happened at 9:l5 in the
evening, and it is supposed TINT
when he alighted from his engine
he stepped in front of the snow
dozer which was coming down the
opposite track and was rolled under
the wheels.
Phipps was resident of this
city. He has a sister and young
brother here. His mother is visit.
ing in Eau Claire, Wis, and hil

Best of All
YearS--GibsOn

AS Fra Elbertus would say, il re-
Juvenates ones cosmos to hold con-
verse with Paris Gibson, founder OF
Great Falls, ex-United States Sen
ator, original champion and advo.
cate of agricultural development in
Northern Montana.
Mr.. Gibson is young in every
thing but years and he wears his
years lightly because of his great
fund OF energy, his boundless en-
thuslasm and optimism and his
never faltering faith in the future
of his city and the Zone of Plenty,
the storled plains and valleys en-
clrcllng it on every side, that are
becoming the places of peace
plenty prosperity.
1t is good to listen to Mr.. Gibson
when he wakes eloquent concerning
the possibilities of northern Mon
tana. 1t is not of the brand that
one hears from the lips of the boom
er or effusive optimist. 1t is of
that firm founding that has persist
ed through long years and has
weathered soothing, doubt, and op-
position from interests that did not
doubt, but whose selfish interests
would not permit them to lend aid
or encouragement to the great new
program.
l have just returned from st.
Paul" said Mr.. Gibson to the
Pioneer Press man as he sat down
to digest" great stack of CORE
spondence on the desk of his office
IN the Tod Block, and Jim Hill
tells me that beyond peradventure
this is to be Northern Montana's
greatest year. The interest in this
part of the West is intense and the
class who are interested are of a
more substantial kind-with fewer
.of the merg's curious, speculation
obsessed element than heretofore, y
Although Paris Gibson has never
visited this section of Montana, his
knowledge of this section, its pro-
posed irrigation projects, the nature
OF its soil, Its annual rainfall and
other vital features is amazing,
even allowing for the fact that he
has been a constant reader" of the
Cut Bank Pioneer Press for three
years. I have heard so manv
eloquent tributes paid to the Black
feet Indian Reservation, from men
whom | consider competent to
judge that | am anxious to see it
opened at an early date, to the
eager homemakers who are daily
learning that here on the old cattle
plains are possibilities that are sur
prising even those who were pion-
eers in the cause of agricultural ad-
Vancement
