men whom they overcame in battle join
in praise and gratitude that the Union
was saved.
There is something peculiarly beauti-
full and peculiarly touching about that.
whenever a man who is still trying to de-
vote himself to the service of the nation
comes into a presence like this. or into
a place like this. his spirit must be pc
culiarly moved. mandate is laid upon
him which seems to speak from the very
graves themselves. Those who serve this
nation, whether in peace or in war.
should serve the nation without thought
of themselves. l can never speak in
praise of war, ladies' and gentlemen; you
would not desire me to do SO. But there
Is this peculiar distinction belonging to
the soldier. that he goes into an enter
prise out of which he himslef cannot get
anything at all. He is giving everything
that he has. even his life. in order that
others may live. not in order that he
himself may obtain gain and prosperity.
And just so soon as the tasks of peace
are performed in the same spirit of self
sacrifice and devotion, peace societies
will not be necessary. The very organi-
zation of society will be a guarantee of
peace.
Show Self-Sacrifce.
Therefore, this peculiar thing comes
about, that we can stand here and
praise the memory Of these soldiers in
the interest of peace. They set us the
example of self-sacrifice. which II fol-
lowed in peace, will make it unnecessary
that men should follow war any more.
We are reputed to be somewhat care
less in our discrimination between
words in the use of the English lam
guage. and yet 1t Is interesting to note
that there are some words about
which We are very careful. We bestow
the adjective great somewhat 1ndlS-
criminately. man who has made con-
quest of his fellow-men for his own
gain may display such genius in war
such uncommon qualities of organization
leadership, that We may, cali him
great; but there is word which we
reserve for men of another kind, and
about which we are very careful; that
Is the word noble
I'VE never call man noble who
serves only himself, and if you will
look about through all the nations of
the world upon the statues that men
have erected-upon the inscribed tab
lets where they have wished to keep
they would most honor-you will find
that almost without exception they
have erected the statue to those men
who had splendid surplus OF courage
to spend upon their fellow men.
Nobility exists in America without
patent. We have no house of lords, but
We have house Of fame in which we
elevate those who are the noblemen
of our race. who. forgetful of them
terest. who have the courage to face
any number and any kind of adver-
sary. to speak what in their hearts
they believe to be the truth.

Election Promises

There has been crying need OF
new roads all over the reservation fol
the past four years. Petitions have
been signed and presented to the
board of county commissioners ask
ing for the establishment of such
roads, and that was the last heard OF
petitions until last week. Just as an
election is about due and somebody
wants to be reelected on the board he
gets busy and makes an official visit
all over the reservation and at the
same time attends every meeting Of
the party which has nominated him
for reelection. He goes out in tn,
day time to inspect proposed new
roads and promises everybody new
road right off the bat, but what has
he been doing for the four years past?
Letting everybody wait. Fine man to
re-clect for a six years term. Not a
cross road on the reservation passable
at this time, and boulevard all along
the Blackfoot for thirty miles to his
home ranch. Not a decent bridge a
cross a stream on the reservation
north of Ravalli, with proposed bond
issue of $4,000 to build two new steel
bridges east of Missoula to correct the
mistakes of the board in spending
vast sum of money for a difficult and
dangerous piece of grade work be-
tween Missoula and Bonner. This
work has been done during the past
six years also. Do reservation voters
want this kind of a man for a COM
missioner for six more years? If you
do vote for Frank Nelson. If you
want thoroughly competent man and
one who will treat you right all the
time, and not just before election, vote
for G. F. Peterson.

DAN CURRIE

1t seems superfluous to say any
thing about Dan Currie, the demo
cratic candidate for assessor. M
Currie has now filed the position fol
four years and has given general sat
isfaction. He is hard working Off
cial who has striven at all times to dc
his full duty, and besides is a gentle
nan in every sense of the word.
Mr.. Currie has personally made the
assessment on the reservation during
one year of his term of office and
knows the conditions which have oc-
cured here. He has been as lenient
on homesteaders as the law would per-
NIT and feels that in doing so he has
only been giving them justice. lie
knows personally every man and
woman who lives here and this fact
makes him a strong candidate. He is
the one official who has appointed
deputies from the reservation to do
the work of his office in this locality
and will continue to appoint local men

diately after was installed. This
saving, together with the interest ]

honest efforts. Upon this platform

FOR COUNTY
COMMISSIONER

Frank Nelson is pioneer of Mis-
soula county. Thirty years ago he
came to the Blackfoot valley, as a
pioneer farmer he is familiar with the
needs of newly settled country.
During his administration of one
term as County Commissioner Mis-
soula county has seen more improve
ment along the lines of public high
ways and otherwise than ever before
in the history of the county. Not
withstanding the vast and substan-
tial improvements which have been
made during his term of office the
bonded Indebtedness of the county has
been reduced sixty-three thousand
dollars, ,000.00). No doubt the
voters took these facts into consider
alton when Frank Nelson was renom-
mated for County Commissioner by a
splendid majority at the last primaries
No man in the office of County Com
missioner can please everyone at al
times, but Mr.. Nelson's policy has
been and always will be to serve the
taxpayers as whole and not the in
dividual, furthermore, the smallest
taxpayer has been given as much con-
sideration as the largest taxpayer
Frank Nelson has proved himself to
be friend of the Reservation people
by his acts on many different matters.
Not withstanding the criticism by the
Roman Pioneer as to Mr.. Nelson's adj
ministration we are writing this state
ment in justice to Mr.. Nelson, and we
urge the people of the Flathead reser-
walton not to make a mistake in select
ing the next County Commissioner!
We fully believe the Reservation peo-
pie are appreciative of Frank Nelson's
efforts in their behalf and will support
him for another term for County Com
missioner. Our reservation country
is new and it's needs are many. Much
has been done for us but much more
remains to be done. Mr.. Nelson is
familiar with existing conditions and
we feel he can serve the best interests
of the Reservation people better than
a new man who has not had the trials
and the experiences of pioneer far
mer in new country.
Let us stand together for Frank
Nelson for County Commissioner Nov.
3rd, 1914, because he is capable and
efficient and has served us we'll.
Respectfully submitted,

CHANGE IS AGAIN MADE
IN ROMAN POLLING PLACE

The polling place for Roman precinct
has been changed from the old Pioneer
building to the one formerly used by
John N. Bailey as a drug store, the
one diagonal across the street from
Potvin & Managers store.
This change has been made necessary
owing to the fact that the old Pioneer
building is now occupied by Singer &
Downs as pool hall and is not avail
able for election purposes.
Remember the place and every voter
is urged to come out and cast his bal
lot.

JOHN E. CANNON

The Pioneer wants to say just
a word for John Cannon, the re-
publican candidate for sheriff.
He has made a clean campaign
for election and deserves to win.
He has been a resident of this
county practically all his life, has
occupied the position in second
airy capacity before, having been
under sheriff and deputy, and is
known as a fearless officer and
one who will perform the duties
without favor.
He promises economy in the
office if elected, and being free
from entanglements of any kind
would make an excellent sheriff.
A vote for John E. Cannon is a
vote for efficiency and economy.
