THE STATE FAIR.

"A bill has been introduced in the
house at Helena, providing for the re-
moVal of the state fair from Helena to
Great Falls and fer the appropria-
ton of sufficient money to erect new

Cascade city. We don't know what

But we have read the title of the
bill with interest. 1t may strike some
people as unreasonable to abandon
the extensive plant which has been
erected at Helena for the state fair

is the view which the Lewis and Clark
delegation will take OF the matter.
However, there are many arguments
in favor of Great Falls as n site fol

the same arguments in favor of this

on it's school of agriculture. So doing
it can give to one or the other of these
schools foremost rank in the United

a period of 25 years. That will, in
turn, draw to Montana students from

the inestimably valuable work they
do in extension.
We do object to having our Missoula
friends charge us with neglect of our
duty, when we do perchance try to be
of use in extension or inspection
work, some going so far as to say that
if we would stay at home and attend
to our business we would be as good
a faculty as that at Bozeman. This
is in entire ignorance of the fact that
we have done almost no extension
work this year, that we have never
been able to do nearly so much as
that institution has done. with its
more abundant funds.
That institution besides sending out
it's own men has also funds to bring

FOR DEVELOPM ENT.

One night last week, at a progress
sive-party banquet in Chicago, former
Senator Beveridge of Indiana replied
10 the Wilson address at Trcn:"n. T.
his fellow progressives Mr. BeVeridge
took a messag ge of faith in the integrl-
ty of their party and in the righteous
ness of its ideals. But his message
was broader in its scope than the
walls of that banquet hall; 1t was q
message to the business World-a
message of constructiveness as con-
trasted with destructiVeness, of build
ing up instead of tearing down. Ii
was one of the Indiana mans best
efforts Commenting up"n it, the
Chicago Post says:

MlSSOULA'S NEEDS

Editor Missoulian-Mr. Cobban dag
noses the disease correctly and pre-
scribes the proper remedy. Missoula is
sick, very sick, and is now suffering
acute indigest on. An emetic that will
bring up the unassimlated stuff, and
then a good, strong tonic of industrial
plants and pay rolls will restore the
patient and in time make him as strong
and vigorous as his neighbor.
Nature has favored Missoula not
alone with climate and scenery, but
with natural resources and a near
market. Why does she not profit
thereby? Everybody knows the an
swer.
"Pendragon" gives out the slogan,
Every possible encouragement to fac
tories. wholesale houses and enterprises
of all kinds" but if you do that you
must first swat the knocker, or, as Mr..
Cobban puts it, wake up to the need,
once for ALL of telling the men who
have been running the city's prospects
by interfering with new industries, to
keep their hands off"
La Crosse, Wis, has an "Industrial
of locating industrial plants in that
city, which is a model and which
might be used to advantage in Mis-
SOula
Its prospectus states that the object
shall be the locating, building. en-
| couraging and establishing manufac-
| tories and manufacturing establish
lishments by any method except the
giving of bonuses"
In following out the plan a stock COR
poration was organized with capital
of 100000, and the entire amount was
subscribed by 263 persons and firms.
Assessments We're levied on the stock
only when money was needed in ac-
cordance with the prospectus. In three
| years the stockholders have paid in
$50, ,000 and this has brought three new
factories to the city employing 115 men,
and has extended financial aid to two
good Industries previously established; !;
! $50 900 is invested in the preferred
stock of industrial plants and $4,000 is
| loaned to other plants on interest. The
| association has earned and been paid
| about $4,000 on its invested funds. and
| mas Dtt1l repaid ALMOST Hall Ol lie
money originally loaned. The factories
are prosperous institutions, and will
soon return the loans to the industrial
| fund. The money is not given to the
new enterprises in the shape of
bonuses, but is loaned to them on a
| business basis or invested in their cap
| ital stock, as the case may be, and in
| this way the citizens share in the
profits of Their new factories, in addi-
| ton to the increase of business which
| is brought to the city by the working
men employed. The original fund is
available by this scheme for reinvest-
ment from time to time as other desir-
able industries are discovered.
| The advantages Of the scheme will be
seen without further comment, and it
| will fit Missoula as we'll as La Crosse,
| provided. as Mr.. Cobban says, we first
diagnose our troubles and then give
the medicine Respectfully,

tion for his criticism of the policy
of the president -ele1t by stating
the simple truth that the one
general statement upon which all
business men can agree, is that
the first requisite for business
prosperity lies in settled business
conditions, in certainty and secur-
ity."
The New Jersey message, Mr.
Beveridge went on to say, meant
one of two things. The first is
that the handling of the great
business problems is to be left to
the individual states. (Which
takes us back not to the doctrine
of Lincoln, but to the doctrine of
Calhoun. Exactly the same argu-
mint was used for the disposal of
the slavery question Here is
where we progressiVes differ pro-
foundly with the democrats. We
believe in the supremacy of the
nation over the state. We do not
believe that the state can deal any
more effectively with the problem
deal with child labor or with
slavery"
We are glad that Mr.. Beveridge
made this point in this fashion.
For the old state rights doctrine,
as he himself has said upon the
platform and in the magazines, is
coming upon the national stage
once moro not only with demo-
cratic support but with the sup
port of reactionaries of all parties
even of that party which inhcr
its the gospel of Alexander Ham
ilton, the great federalist. State
rights are to be the screen behind
which many a devious plan will
be advanced for the defeat Of
conservation laws or of human
welfare legislation.
Mr. Beveridge's alternative eX-
planation of the New Jersey mes
sage left out of account the state
rights issue. Testing Governor
Wilson's proposals by the human
welfare ideal of the new party,
he said that they meant a return
to that cruel individualism which
has made it so hard for the people
of this country even to understand
their greatest problems. 1t is, he
said as if the incoming Presi-
dent had declared: Let compe-
tition be savage and unrestrain
ed" Upon this he passed the
succinct comment, "Civilization is
regulation
The progressive party said
Mr. Beveridge in conclusion,
Stands for regulation of business,
not for state or national annihla-
tion of it. It does not stand for
another 25 years of uncertainty
while the slow process of the
courts is sitting and interpreting
new trust law, as it has sifted
and interpreted the Sherman law
for the last % years. The pro-
gressive party offers the business
men of the United States the only
sensible and scientific solution OF
the trust problem"
The speech of Mr. Beveridge
serves a good purpose at this
juncture. 1t reminds the people
that the progressive party has a
sound and definite program to
offer the nation in it's economic
as we'll as its social development.

MORE LETTERS.

The Missoulan prints this morning more letters from
prominent educators ndorsng the proposed Montana con-
play The request for their publication came from the
faculty Of the university The Mssouian regrets that
the limitations of space will not permit the publication OF
the entire list of communications which was submitted
The reading these letters will disclose the fact that they
are all favorable to the consolidation plan This is but
natural The who wrote these letters have, presum
ably heard no other statement Of the consolidation
than that which is made by the very active publicity bu-
reau which is operating at the university these days
The writer's Of these letters have heard but side Of
the case Their replies based upon the presumption
that the statement which they have received correct In
Montana know that there many serious inaccuracies
lin the of the consolidation which has been
made here we presume the statement made to
the educators whose letters given this morning.
Were there inaccuracies in the presentation OF the con-
solidaton plan which is made by the publicity bureau Of
the university the conclusion which these educators make
would be correct Reasoning from the premises which
placed before Them they could reach no other concuson
Hence their letters must be read with the understanding
that they have heard but side of the case No fair
minded man will claim that proper conclusion can be
reached in this manner.
We presume these people told that this consolida
ton plan proposed by the state board OF educatqn
We have heard that assertion made here frequently But
is an incorrect statement The plan not we have
said BEFORE proposed by the state board OF education It
was flashed upon the board like bolt from clear sky
The members of the board had knowledge OF its ex-
sence.
We presume oo that the information was given regard
ing the sateand situation which has been given here at
home in this connection We know this to be
Likewise the writer's Of these letters presumably given
the same to Montana attendance at eastern
colleges and universities that has been given to This is
another of the university bureaus statements which at
variance with the exact situation
So must not place too much weight upon the expert
testimony which the university publicity bureau serves to
u.s. We repeat the wish that we might publish all OF the
letters which have been handed to their number would
give the public idea OF the tremendous activity OF the
University publicity bureau. And these represent but
small part of that activity There the hundreds of let
tiers which have gone to the capitol building at Helena
There are the other hundreds that have been the
newspapers of the state
The volume of this correspondence is immense 1t repre-
sents not nconsiderabe expense in the way OF material

devoted to the upbudng of the university instead OF to the
