During the past score of years many
thousands Of officers and men have,
navy. They all served long enough to
become familiar with their duties, and
it is believed that it will be possible
to make up a reserve force of several
thousand of these young men who, on
short notice, would respond in nuns
bers sufficient to enable the navy
department to man the entire fleet.
The navy department is now gath
ering data on this subject to present
it to the committee on naval affairs
and circulars describing the purpose
of the reserve have been sent to all
men who were at one time in the
navy. The responses show thai the
keenest interest has been aroused.
While all that is required of a
former naval man is his enrolment,
yet members Of the reserve may vol-
unfairly enter active service for such
drills, ETC., for a period not exceed
ing n Year any one time. During
such active service the reserve viii
serve in the same rank he occupied
when he left the regular service, or
whatever his rank in the merchan,
service, n he will receive navy pay
according.
This feature of permitting practice
enllstmentS on navy pay also applies
in the measure for the promotion of
the state naval militia. This will give
the young men who now have small
%gunboats a chance to spend their va
cation with the regulars and to gain
knowledge that will help them in their
local organization and lead to their
promotion.

A Promising Year Ahead
Chamber of Commerce Ready for Action.

+ Following the election of the execu-
tive committee, the selection of S. j.
Coffee as president and appointment
of William G.. Ferguson as secretary,
he Missoula Chamber of Commerce
has settled down to it's work for the
Garden city for another year. Secre-
tary Ferguson is settled in his office,
n although very busy in gathering
up the strings of his organization and
beginning his duties, he found time
yesterday to make his initial greeting
to the members and supporters of the
chamber and to outline the general
plans for the coming season as fol-
lows:
AS A. ]. Breitenstein, former secre-
tary of the Missoula Chamber of Com
merce, was weighing anchor for Hell
ena he delivered himself of the fol-
lowing aphorism, credited to Abraham
Lincoln: Il like to see a man proud
Of the place in which he lives. I like
to see a man live in it so that his
place will be proud of him." During
the several years | have spent in Mis-
s0ula l have oun this to be true:
That the first part of the maxim is
sure to come and that the concluding
thought is certain to be true, as a
sequence. 1t is impossible for any
one to live in Missoula long enough
to really know the city without be-
coming imbued with the spirit which
makes him rear up on his hind legs
and fight if anyone drops remarks
d~erogatory to the Garden city. OF
course, that is not always the case. II
is a reasonably safe bet that if the
population of any city in the United
States We're ~transplanted to Eden it
would not be "a hours before some of
the Chronic" kickers would begin to
find fault with the construction of the
scenery and the fact that there was
no style sheet showing the latest de-
signs to which the fig leaf might be
adapted. The concluding sentences OF
A. Lincoln's statement holds good in
Missoula. There are as few 'unde.
sirables" here as in any city of its
size in the country. 1t a be said
safely that Missoula has few citizens
of which she is not proud.
What is true of Missoula, holds good
for the surrounding country. Tribu-
tary to the Garden city is a truly de-
lightful and productive territory. Time
has proved that the first settlers In
this portion of western Montana knew
what they were doing n anyone ac>
quainted with the possibilities of this
country as they appear at the present
day cannot but feel certain that the
future has wonderful ehings in store
for Missoula and it's tributary terri
tory.

To prepare for a sudden call to
arms the navy department has had
prepared a bill authorizing the crea-
ton of what will be for the navy what
the National guard is to the army.
This bill has been reported out favor
ably by the naval committees of both
the house and the senate.
This new law is believed by naval
authorities to be the solution of one
Of the greatest of their problems
how to man the navy in case of sud
den need. With the tendency to the
construction of gigantic vessels of
war, which are huge, complicated
masses of machinery requiring crews
of more than 1000 men each, and with
congress inclined to 20 slowly with the
authorizing of a proportionate number
of enlisted men the navy department
has had to lay up certain of the fleet
and transfer their crews to other
ships.
h method answers well enough in
time Of peace but with a constantly
increasing fighting fleet and not a cor
responding increase in the number
of sailors, it is appreciated that should
the country be suddenly plunged in
war with a great power there would
be the serious handicap of having ves>
sells but not men.
Time was when the merchant
marine could be called upon to AXE
stations OF warships, but that time
has passed. The modern battleship is
a thing to itself, and it means trains
ing before a crew can be made eff
cient.
The proposed law has two dis
tinctive features, n of which is to
be more liberal with the state naval
militias, to give them better equip
ment, more ammunition and more
coal to operate their training craft on
practice cruises, and the other is to
form a national naval reserve.
The latter will be something entire>
ly new in this country, but will be
similar to the royal naval reserve OF
England. 1t is to be made up of or
ficers and men who have at one time
served in the regular ANY or men
who are in the merchant marine and

wise form of the prohibition move

Professor Huoppc, one of Gcrmany's
leading authorities and writer's on al
coholism and other diseases resulting
from the abuse of stinulantS.
Professor ITncppe, who was report e

fore a scientific association of Berlin,
that tho use of stimulants in America
had taken chiefly the form of indnl-

statement was not so broad as that
The professor repeats, however that
the use of opium has spread over n
large part Of the United States, The
reason for this, he thinks, Is to be
found in prohibition laws. The use
Of all silmulants, he says arises from
local conditions. If one suppI~sses
their sale or use without regard to
local needs and to the historical de
Volopmcnt Of Il people, other stimu-
lants must take the place Of those in
tcrdiCtod, often these new stimu-
lautS are moro dangerous than those

Other writers have questioned the
professors conclusions on the ground
that prohibition Of the sale of alec
holiC stimulants Is the exception rath-

a movement has been started in
Norway in favor of the abolition of
decorations.
nj, Thornc, n cabinet minister, and
a former speaker of the Storthing, has
set an example by declining the
grand cross of Saint Olaf. the high
est distinction in Norway. which the
King recently conferred upon him in
recognition of his services especially
at the time Norway declared her in
dependence, and the dissolution of the
SWedish-N Norwegian union took place,
In returning the decoration NJ.
Thorne thanked His Majesty for the
honor, but said that he thought that
he was doing his duty as q Norwegian
citizen in refusing it. Coming from
a strong conservative this action
shows how widespread is the objec-
ton to decorations in the country.
In the Stolthing there are 50 menu
sers who control a majority against
decorations. They have already sub
mitted an amendment to the consti-
tuition in this respect, which is GER
tain to be passed.

Their" has been a revival of the agi-
tation against the Importation of
American meat, largely based on am
trticlc appearing In a local paper
from It's Chicago correspondent, which
conveyed The impression that Norway
was used as a dumping ground for
the meat of horses and diseased mi
mails, which could not be sold else
where.
The American Minister, who on pre-
yious occasions, has obtained fair
treatment for American meat bv sat
ISfying tho Norwegian authorities.
that it was Of good quality and Was
carefully inspected, has made a pub
lie statement in which he points out
that the American authorities do not
inspect, stamp or certify horse meat,
ana that the article complained of is

cial stamp and certificate, against
which there has never been any COM
plant.

There was a time when this was the

members of the first Reichstag, who

sessions. In 1874 the railroad officials
did a little quiet Investigating and
learned that one legislator had trav-

months, another more than 5000, and
a third more than $500 miles. The

More limestone is produced in the
United States than any other kind Of
stone. not excepting granite. and its
value is also greater.
The value Of the limestone output IN
1911, according TO the United States
geological survey. was SS3, S97, S62. a
decrease OF S706. 3l6 from the 6gures
for 1910. The decrease in value was
chiefly in limestone used for huxing.
These figures do not include the value
of most of the stone that is burned
into lime nor large quantity of
limestone used in the manufacturing
of portland cement.
