Fresh Rubber
Goods

The best time to buy Rubber
Goods is when they are fresh and
elastic. Fresh goods are sure to
give much longer service than those
that have laid in stock for some
time. Rubber has the popularity
of lasting longer with careful use
than when idle.
This new stock comes from one
of the biggest and most reliable
firms in the country, and includes
just about everything in family
rubber goods.
All kinds of syringes, ranging in
price from 75c to 1915, and are all
guaranteed for one year. Every
price, represents exceptional value,
as we r on the jobbers' list, and
buy at a very low figure.

SNIFF! fling suspiciously as he
SNIFF! moves along, don't
think that he is a de-
tective or a newspaper reporter. Rest
assured, it will be President G. p.
Smith of the Missoula Gas company
hunting after a mysterious leak in his
main. Yesterday MI. Smith secured
from the city council permission to
dig another hole in the Higgins avenue
pavement. By digging in front of the
Missoula Trust & Savings bank Mr..
Smith discovered a fine lot of paving
brick, a few hard rocks and a lot of
frozen earth, but 10 leak. Now his
nose tells him that the leak is in
front Of the Hammond building. Yes
terday he set his men to work there.
This time they must go through re-
inforcel concrete in order to get at
the main. The chase does indeed grow
not hard to find. People smell gas
in Easements clear up the avenue; 1t
has been detected in the Missoula
Mercantile store, passersby sniff it IN
the street, or say they do, but the
leak CAM be located. City Engineer
Buck has inspected all of the connec-
tons along the avenue. but can't find
the leak, and President Smith has
taken the surer but more difficult
method of digging at random. He is
bound to find it sometime. That is
certain.

One thing that makes Mr.. Smith be-
lieve that he is on the right track at
last is the fact that the
is THIS trolley pole at the end
A CLUE? of the bridge has been
performing some queer
antics that might be connected with a
leaking gas main. The stunts pulled
off by the trolley pole have formed a
neat little mystery in themselves. AS
everyone who has observed the trolley
poles closely will remember, the iron
posts are hollow with ornamental
caps fitted over a tapering upper end.
These caps are heavy n are secure
~ fastened. 1t happens that one
morning recently the cap on the pole
at the north end of the bridge on the
west side of the street was found lying
on the sidewalk. No one could i'm
agine how it got there, for the top of
the pole is far beyond the reach of
any practical joker. The street rail-
way people wondered and replaced the
cap. The next morning it lay on the
sidewalk again. Engineer Ferguson
was called in by the street railway
people. He though the matter ove a
N'ihS NV tiNh pul IL N"P b"Nh III.
The next day it lay in the street once
more. Then Mr.. Ferguson cast cal
culations aside, climbed the pole and
shifted. An odor of gas filled the pipe.
He called President Smith away from
the hole that gentleman was digging
at the corner of Higgins avenue and
Main street n Informed him that
gas, escaping from his main had filled
the hollow trolley pole Zach day so
that when the light which decorates
each pillar was turned on at night the
gas ignited and the explosion blew
the cap from the upper end of the
pipe. Mr.. Smith shifted, agreed, and
went straight to the city hail. Short
ly he moved his subterrancan explorers
down he street. He is sure he has
corraled the leak at last.

THE PRINCIPLE OF WORKMfES COMPENSATION
RECOGNIZED

The validity Of the principle Of workmens
compensation was fully recognized at the public
hearing on the subject held last night by the SEN
ate judiciary committee and with this point cs-
tablshed, half the battle is won z..
Such objections as were raised were obiec-
tons to detail and not to principle and the iu-
dietary committee will certainly proceed care
fully in its decision on these details. .~#
On the other hand the spirit with which the
large employers are listening TO the proposals
of the bills now before the legislature is an adj
mirabe spirit. Mr.. Richard Iyers for instance,
speaking at Chairman Judd's request from the
standpoint of sugar man, declared that the
sugar-planters are not opposed to the general
features of the Writ bill, which was the draft
under immediate discussion Mr. Ivers stated
the very point that is one of the great arguments
for the enactment of such a law here,-that the
plantations are voluntarily providing what
amounts to a compensation system The bill,
then, proposes to legalze what is already in ex-
istence,-a compensation system for the benefit
of injured employees and their families.
One employer raised the objection that the
small concern, with comparatively small capital
and little opportunity to build up reserve fund,
WOuiu Out vi UuSlueSS Ill case OI Il serious
disaster Detailing a number of employees. This
objection is applicable only lin case the law com
pels the individual employer to bear the burden
of compensation AS suggested by the StarBu
letin yesterday, there are other ways of handling
the compensation fund. One method which is
meeting with some favor is that the fund be
maintained jointly by the employer, the employee
and the territory, each paying into the treasury
fair proportion, ~the7 fund to be admin
istered by the territory. The loss in such case
would fall with comparative lightness on small
employer.
The encouraging feature of last nights meet
ing is that the employers recognize the conmu
nifty value of life and limb and the further eco
nomic value of taking from the shoulders of a
disabled man and his family the burden that
falls upon him when he is injured as an incident
to his employment.

GETTING TO The BASIS

That radical changes must be made in the
public utility bills now pending before the leg
islature before any of them can be passed with
safety or any assurance that it will be effective
is quite plain from the public hearing held last
night. At the same time, there is no merit in a.
proposal to drop public utility legislation at this
time. The present legislature ought to be able to
agree on a simple measure that will offer fair
degree of supervision and control rates, will
provide for enforcement of good service rules
and will insure the publicity of operations that
any public utility corporation should give. The
bills now pending are too drastic, but they are
serving their purpose in bringing this subject to
head. The main point to be remembered is
that some body must be established to which
complaints against exorbitant rates or INSULT
cient service can be referred and the public as
sured of impartial, energetic action

TRUE and FALSE ECONOMY

1t is whispered around legislative halls-so
far no one has said it out loud-that House Bill
119 is to be slaughtered.
The date for the slaughtering is set for to-
morrow, when the bill comes up for third reading
in the House
House Bill 119 has already been given consid-
cradle space by the Star Bulletin. 1t provides
in brief that revenues derived from water Ii
censes shall constitute and be held as special
fund to be administered by the board of agricuI-
ture and forestry for the protection of forest res
ervations and for the development and mainte-
nance of the photographic survey throughout
the territory
House Bill 121 is kindred measure, author
izing the board of agriculture and forestry to
create and maintain division of photography
for the investigation and development of the
water resources of the territory.
The only opposition to such obviously benefi-
cial measures these, is and can be that the leg
islators do not feel like spending so much money
on forest and water conservation. They believe
that there are other public needs to which part
of the proceeds of water license sales should be
applied. III.
This is one kind of economical policy, but it
is false kind. Hawaii has suffered and is still
suffering from lack of water, from devastation
of forest areas, from waste of water through the
lack of proper regulation 1t is estimated that
during the drought of the past year on Kauai,
enough water was wasted to have increased the
value of the sugar output of that island by more
than half million dollars. This is foolish
waste, criminal waste. ....

waits water resources demand the following OPP
erations: @a....". >....

1t is safe to say that President Wilson's stand
against involving the administration in the "Six-
Power loan" to China will do more to engender
friendly relations with the new republic than
participation by the American bankers in the
loan under the proposed terms. Members of the
foreign group of financiers have been engaged
in what looks very much like an international
hold-up scheme, the terms of which were so re-
pugnant to China that Yuan ShihK and his
associates declined to sanction the loan. The
American finan6ers argued that the goodwill
of Uncle Sam would be exhibited by their par
ticipation in the loan, but this argument has
never satisfied China. ".-.... -. .. i.

Judges, had Judge Kersten consulted
Judge Cooper before complying with
-1oyne's request, and the judges
agreed on an impartial jury and
states attorney in whom everybody
would have confidence. AS the mat
ter now stands selfish interests are
trying to embroil the two judges in
political and newspaper fight.
1t is a crying shame that judges
have to depend upon political bosses
= to get party nomination, but it is
worse than that when politicians try
to make partisans of them when
they are on the bench.
There is way out of this for the
judges, if they want to uphold the
alleged dignity of the bench. If
Judge Cooper is right and the mat
ter of a special grand jury was prop
erIy before him when Hoyne rushed
before Judge Kersten, then Judge
Kersten can satisfy himself as to that
by consultation with Judge Cooper;
and if satisfied, he should back up
and let Judge Cooper's action stand.
If Judge Cooper is wrong, then the
two judges as honorable men can
find way to have one grand jury
and one special states attorney in
both of whom the public will have
confidence.
l have this suggestion to make to
Judge Kersten: The rights of the
naODIn in fhn ma}far Of aIaotioT
frauds are of much more vital con-
Germ than the selfish interests of any
politicians or newspapers; and the
weakness of Hoyne's position just
now is that he opposed any investi-
cation by special grand jury and
states attorney until he got what he
wanted in Judge Kersten's court.
And even though Judge Kersten be
entirely honest and sincere, which l
have no reason to doubt, Hoyne's at
titude is creating a public impression,
