Merchant Martin jacobson was
the first local citizen to make the
talk that counts" by stating that he
would subscribe for ten shares of
stock Cat 500 per share. There
was a general and spontaneous re-

sum of $500 was subscribed. A

Mr.. Enge talked little and listen
ed much for couple OF days and
his conclusions were made public at
a meeting of business mer and
farmers, at Attorney Coburn's office,
Monday afternoon. The gentleman
declared that his Investigations had
satisfied him that Cut Bank WIS a
most inviting point for the location
of flour mill, and since the price
of grain was lower and the price of
flour higher than at any point ne
had visited in this section OF the

to operate a -four mill and not real

The New Year Reception
!, the Pittsburgh Press

from the PITTSBURGH PreSS.
One does not need to give up any of
his admiration for the genuine democracy
of President Wilson in order to doubt
to give the customary New Year recep-
ton to the public at the White House.
The President reminds his critics that he
has been at his desk with little or no in
terruptiOn since he assumed the office in
March last. And he has had an unusual
number Of troublesome matters to deal
with. even from the viewpoint of Pres
vacation: the public certainly does not be-
grudge 1t to him, but on the contrary will
wish him the best of times when he does
start upon il. But anybody as resource
full as he has proved himself to be can
easily manage TO get a vacation during
the holiday recess and give the New
Year reception too. This New Year re-
American citizens than perhaps the Pres
ident suspects. 1t is the one occasion
upon which the White House seems to
open it's doors Hospitality to the plain
people. Other receptions there are in
considerable number during the year, but
they are Of an official and class character.
from which the public as a whole Is ex-
cluded- This New Year reception is in a
peculiar sense the peoples reception. 1t
is their only chance to see the people S
palace to see and meet on common
level Of hospitality the one ruler who
rules as the peoples representative.
Countless thousands Of humble American
youth have come away from this meet
ing fired with new ambition and new pa
triotism 1t is the last function of the
Washington season that a President of

Wilson has shown himself to be- ought

the report that a new floor leader would

Carolina were pointed out with much ap-
probation.
But the gentleman from Alabama has
filled the office. and filled it we'll He has
shown himself to be a good debater, a
good parliamentarian and a good nego-
tiator. He has led through difficult places,
and with important results. His relations
with the President are close and cordial.
With him on deck in the House. no EN-
barrassing clash between that body and
the White House over legislation will be
likely.
And this is a point of value. For the
President is certain to continue his super
vision of Congress. SO far. he has found
much compliance with his wishes on Capt.
tol Hill; and he has but begun the UNI
folding of his program. AS the House
yielded to him on the tariff and the cur
rency. 1T will be. expected to yield on
trusts, conservation, the Philippines and
all the rest OF 1t.

stand each other; and while the latter re-
mains in the House the policies of the
former will receive sympathetic treatment
there. And. later. when Mr.. Underwood
reaches the Senate. the strength of the
administration. in that body will be con-
siderably increased by his presence.

has repeatedly called the attention of its
woman patrons to the number of acct
dents caused by hobble skirts and high
heels. Between July IA and August II
forty-four such accidents occurred on the
Pennsylvania railroad. The records show
forty-two In the next month. and fifty
two during the month ending October a.
If any suits for damages arise in conse-

Mr.. Underwood's Plans.

Interest I'm the announcement that Mr..
Underwood has no intention OF retiring
from the leadership of the House will not
be confined to the democratic party. 1t is
OF general interest.
Two things are conveyed by the news.
The first is that Mr.. Underwood has
strong hopes of success in his race for
the senate. He considers that a pro-
tracted absence from Washington will not
be necessary on his part; that he can In
large measure conduct his campaign from
this town while assisting the President in
the carrying out of the democratic legis-
lative program. An earlier view of the
situation in Alabama was that Mr.. Tn
derwood would have to hump himself
10 win.
The second thing conveyed is that the
work of the regular session OF the House
will require the greatest care in the man
asement. Only a trained hand should

way on the water.
A new tariff law has just gone into
operation. and for the present must be
taken on trust as a revenue producer.
That feature rests today on estimates.
If larger importations are encouraged
by lower duties. larger receipts from
customs will be recorded. If the in
come tax as at present levied yields
WELL that will help.
But, until the eating, the best proof
of the pudding will be lacking. We
shall know more about this matter in
Ia year or two than we now know. and
until then Congress is likely to pro-
lceed cautiously about big appropria
|tions. In making his recommendation
Secretary Daniels had this to consider.
He did not want his figures cut in two
by Congress operating as yet on es-
Inmates and hobbled by campaign
promises of reform.
Mr.. Daniels Endorses the suggestion of
"a naval holiday though not in the
Original form. The British lord of the
admiralty had in view an agreement
between Great Britain and Germany
for limiting naval increases on their
part, and with the hope, of course. of
setting what would become general
fashion. AS proposed by him it got
nowhere. and is not likely to get any
where. Germany regarded it as a po-
litical maneuver, and even at home
its sincerity was questioned.
What Mr.. Daniels has in mind is the
calling of a world council to consider
limiting ornaments in general in the
interests of both peace and economy;
and he considers this country the
proper one to take the initiative.
AS Speaker Clark is already com
mitted to a peace policy of that kind,
and will speak in the House when the
subject comes up. we should witness a
stir in the matter beyond the confines
Of the United States.
The result is, of course, for the flu
ture. Peace is an alluring topic, and
produces many fine sentiments clothed
In mighty fine language. Let every
man in Congress have his say, and at
tention for it. but let Congress remem-
her the ships-those recommended by
Secretary Daniels now, and larger
number later if there is sufficient
money in the till. and we need them
in our business.

Conventions.

The convention season in Washington
opens January ! and closes on the 31st
OF December. That is to say, 1t Is un-
ending, for conventions are in session in
this city practically an the year round.
We have them in every month of the
year, nearly every week of the year, and
sometimes they are two and three deep in
the course OF the week. This present
month is perhaps the heaviest time in this
respect, for il is the aim of some OF the
larger organizations to assemble here
coincidentally with the opening of Con-
gress, so as to catch the ear of the ma
tional legislature. This year, however,
the Opening of Congress is only term
of speech. for Congress has been in ses-
sion continually since the 7th of April.
and Washington sees little change in the
transition from the extra to the regular
term This weeks guests are the
National Woman Suffrage Association
the National Rivers and Harbors Con-
gress, the national conference on pop
ular government and the American
Society for the judicial Settlement
of International Disputes. all of which
are now or will be in session by Satur-
day Next week others will come close
upon their heels-the International Anti
vivisection and Animal Protection Con-
gress and a convention of representatives
of boys and girls clubs, together with a
delegation OF anti-saioonists who propose a
demonstration in behalf of constitutional
amendment for prohibition. Thus for ten
