tion and his flight from the country
were made certain long before the
grim fact was realized in Mexico City.
From the beginning President Will
son disavowed any war-like intentions
or any purpose of aggrandizement; his
whole thought was to do-peacefully
and humanely-for the Mexican peo-
pie what they were unable to do for
themselves. 1t was not question of
preference for Carranza and Villa-it
was a choice of two evils, the greater
of which was typified in the person of
Huerta 1t was stand for decency in
government and honor among nations
and it was consistently maintained in
the face of Misrepresentation, criticism
and calumny.
1t would have been easier for Presi-
dent Wilson to expose the iron hand
and war with Mexico would not have
been wholly unpopular in the United
States; but he chose the more difficult
task of accomplishing his set purpose
by peaceful means and the victory
achieved is the more gratifying on this
account. Mexico is rid of Huerta, the
butcher; the problem of it's future lies
in it's own hands.-Billings Journal.

meeting and all agreed that not a
single voice was heard favoring or
even intimating fusion with the re-
publcans. As that lie passed unchal-
lenged, perhaps because no one in
particular noticed it at the time, eX-
cept the one who wrote it and the
boss who inspired it, the master
mind threw another fit in Fridays
issue, headed "Joint Candidates to Be
Nominated"
The Democrat has made careful in
quiry of the leading progressives Of
this city and finds that there is absO
lutely no foundation in fact for such
q statement. The general answer to
our inquiry has BEEN "The filing Of
our nominating petitions will be the
best answer to that rot" One Of the
most prominent men in the councils
o. the progressives of this county said
that when the progressives let the
editor of the Argus and tho boss
'.eree' on the progressive candidates
"the millennium will have passed and
gone.'
The Greeks used to say, "Whom the
gods destroy, they first make mad"
1t looks as though some destruction
were in order. Hasten the day.
While this newspaper may not agree
with everything that the progressives
advocate, one thing is certain; they
stand for decency in political methods.
This the master mind" of the Argus
and his masters have not yet learned.

SHOWS VITALITY,

For party supposed to be "negli-
ble," as the local standpat organ calls
it, the progressive party in the state
and in Fergus county is showing quite
remarkable vitality. 1t is at least able
to sit up and take notice of what is
going on and apparently is not averse
absorbing little nourishment, in as
much as in most of the counties of the
state it already has completed ar
rangements for putting complete tick
cts in the field with the announced ex-
pectatiOn of capturing some of the Of
fices.
Wellington D. Rankin, one of the
leading attorneys at the Helena bar,
and Attorney ]. H. Brinson of Butte,
who was formerly member of con-
gress from Colorado, have announced
that they will be candidates for nom
nations for representatives in con-
gress on the progressive ticket.
Evidently the progressive party is
not to be sneezed at-at least the
sneeze of the standpat organ has to-
tally failed to effect it's elimination.

THE OUTRAGEOUS CAMPAIGN OF
DEFAMATION.

Whether it be called conspiracy or
not, there has been campaign of defa-
nation of the business conditions of
the country, conducted solely in the
hope of defeating democratic candi-
dates for congress and securing re-
publican house this fall. 1t is a dis
reputable campaign, and a dangerous
one. Any merchants credit is liable
to be impaired by the circulation of
rumors that he is embarrassed. The
effort to convince the country that the
state of business is very bad is directly
calculated to make it bad, and that is
it's purpose. The protectionist propa-
ganda would be glad to see panic.
The last one we had was when they
were in full possession Of the govern
ment, but their effrontery is equal to
charging any dullness of business now
on the democratic party, while deny
ing that they were responsible for the
panic of 1907.
The effort of men in congress and OF
the distinctively protectionist organs
to collect and repeat and enlarge on
every indication of dullness of trade,
and to predict worse conditions in the
near future, is wicked and deliberate
effort to bring about bad state of
business in the hope of making some
political gain out of it. The banker in
Fort Wayne who refused to answer
the inquiries of the protective tariff
league and told the league what he
thought of it's efforts was patriotic
man who was trying to make business
better, while the league is openly try
ing to make it worse in the hope of
changing some votes in November. 1t
might as we'll save it's efforts. A re-
publican house could not change the
tariff.-Philadelph Record.

CASE OF HUERTA.

Victoriano Huerta, assassin, drunk
ard, and late provisional president of
Mexico, lays on the Wilson admins
tration the blame for his overthrow.
He declares that the attitude of the
Washington government prev vent e d
him from raising funds with which to
equip an army to oppose the rebel
forces and that his enemies received
decided and manifest protection"
from the United States.
1t is true that President Wilson, fol-
lowing the policy established by Presi-
dent Taft, refused to ognize
Huerta's right to an office obtained by
treachery and bloodshed; it is true
that President Wilson discouraged the
making of loans to the Huerta govern
ment, and it is true that this influence
contributed to the downfall of the
Huerta administration. In truth it may
be said that President Wilson's uncom-
promising opposition to a continuance
of Huerta dictatorship made the lat
ter's permanent tenure of office impOs-
sible. The rendering of his resigna-

THAT MONTANA BUlLDiMn

So Montana is, after all, to have a
building at the PanamaPacif eXposi-
ton. Ten thousand dollars has been
appropriated for that purpose by the
exposition committee, and in the build
ing will be housed the exhibits from
various portions of the state. Ten
thousand dollars will erect preten-
tious structure, if no money is wasted
in needless fermentation, and, anyway,
1t is the best the commission can do
with the funds at hand. AS matter
of fact, the state is fortunate in having
a building of any kind and the success
of the undertaking was largely due to
the energy, enthusiasm and intelligent
effort of members of the commission.
From the outset The Evening Jour-
nal has contended that building
should be put up on the San Francisco
exposition grounds, and the reasons for
it were multiplied and emphasized
when private subscription made it pos
sible to construct home for Montana
exhibits at the San Diego fair. There
was, and is, no objection to making a
display at the southern city. A large
number of people will no doubt visit
San Diego and all will be we'll repaid
for the trip.
But it is clear that the main attrac-
tion will beat San Francisco and it is
here that Montana should be ade-
quately represented. Even those who
visit San Diego will make it point to
see the San Francisco display and it is
more than probable that large mum
ber will not make the longer journey.
1t is now assured that a showing of
Montana products will be made at both
places, and this is we'll. The opportun.
ity afforded by these expositions for
advertisement of the states resources
is unequaled and if proper advantage
is taken of it the results in increase OF
populatiO nwill be immediate.
The people of the state have every
confidence that the commission will
collect representative exhibit and
that each locality will be given right
full credit for it's contribution to the
attractive whole. The material for a
prize winning display is abundnat and
it's owners will take pleasure in doing
their part to make the effort entirely
uccessful.-Billings Journal.

STOCK SHOW At STATE FAIR
TO Be ATTRACTIVE FEATURE
CATTLE PREMIUMS THIS YEAR
AMOUNT TO OVER SEVEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS.

HELENA, July 21.-Beef cattle
brought to the Montana State fair
from all points in the state, as well as
from surrounding states, will make
the exhibition of stock at Helena from
September p to 26 the largest stock
show in the northwest. The compile
tion OF the Northern Pacific spur will
give ample unloading facilities for 16
cars, while the Great Northern plat
form will accommodate 20 cars. All
the large cattle owners of Montana
have signified their intention of bring
ing their herds to the state fair, where
the animals can be comfortably cared
for in the barns which were remodeled
last year. Among the prominent ex-
hibitors will be George Slade, vice.
president of the Northern Pacific rail-
way; Harry Childs, of the Yellowstone
Park hotels; Summers and Bohart, Of
the Gallatin valley; and p. H. Griffin,
OF Sunset. Quite few carloads of cat
tie will be sent direct from the North
Dakota fair at Fargo for competition
in Montana.
Despite the fact that the cattle divi-
sions OF the Montana State fair are
open to worldwide competition it is
the Montana cattle that yearly win the
blue ribbons, demonstrating that cat
tie from the Montana range are the
worlds best. The fair offers as prem
iums this year in the cattle divisions,
1888; for Shorthorns, $3.50; for Here
forls, $1,7O0; for Aberdeen-Angus $500;
for Galloway, $500; and for Red Pol
lard, 800; and $l15 in other divisions.

MONEY IN POLITICS.

In the campaign fund publicity bill
passed by the house of representatives
to amend the existing law there is
provision which recognizes and at
tempts to correct one OF the political
abuses revealed in the Mulhall expos
ure. says the Chicago Tribune. The
amount of money which may be used
in any state in support OF congression-
al candidates is limited to the amount
contributed by tho cities of that state.
This would prevent the dumping of
money in G state iii which dny national
organization interested iL legislation
found an important issue. If it wei e
desired to punish ! congressman for
act inimical to the organizations in
forests or to support candidate for
acts beneficial, it no longer would be
possible to bury the one under money
or raise the other by it.
n congressman who knows that lie
may be thus fought or aided may be
ifluneced, and the influence is PERM
cious. The passage of the bill would
do something to eliminate it.

WELCOME, EDITORS.

Today tho editors Of Montana VII
gather here for the annual convention
Of the State Press association. me
delegates will represent. In particular,
the country press of Montana, and
that, after all, is the most ln11uentlal
portiOn of the press, because, proper
tionately, the influence and responsible
ity of the country editor are greater
than those of his brothers of the daily.
And these editors in Montana, either
of the city or country, rank as high as
those Of any state in the Union
The number of newspapers, the aDll-
ity back of them, their great influence
and their material success all reflect
the continued development and pros
Ierity of the great state they so ably
represent. These editors are honored
in their own communities and this city
and county feel honored by their pres
ence here.
We are glad to have them here for
other reasons. We want them to see
Lewistown because we believe they
will take away with them recollections
that will be pleasant and that they will
realize that it is forging ahead more
rapidly than perhaps any city of its
size in Montana We want them to
ride through the vast grain fields or
the Judith basin, so that they may un-
derstand something about the fertility
of the soil and discover upon what a
solid foundation the progress and pros
perity of the city and county are
builded.
We want them to meet our people
and be made to realize the Open-hand-
ed hospitality that awaits them every
where in this part of Montana.
Lewistown hopes that the visiting
editor may find "the atmosphere
breaths rest and comfort and the many
chambers seem full of Welcomes

METHODS OF THE BOSS.

One June 25, last, Frank S. Fuller,
an old, Well-knoWn and respected resi-
dent of the county, in compliance with
the law, filed with the county clerk and
recorder his formal declaration of can
ddacy for the nomination for county
commissioner on the republican ticket.
This fact was duly announced in the
Democrat, the News and other papers
at. the time, and was stated again, in
connection with tile filing of other pc
titiOnS later. On June 30, five days
afterward, B. +. Moulton went through
exactly the same process, filing his
declaration of candidacy for the nomi-
a;NiOn for county commissioner on the
republican ticket. The fact that Mr.
Fuller had filed his petition was, Of
course, well known to the local stand
pat organ and the republican bosses,
yet for reasons of their own in it's last
issue the stand-pat weekly saw fit to
completely ignore Mr.. Fuller and delib-
erately misrepresent and misstate the
fact by publishing as leading edito-
'ial, in black-face type, to make it just
as conspicuous as possible. the follow
ing:
Until Wednesday night only two re-
publican candidates had filed nomi-
mating petitions. They were B. r. MouI-
ton, for county commissioner, and Miss
Alice O'Hara, for county superinten-
dent of schools"
Twenty-One days prior to that publi-
cation Mr.. Fuller's declaration was a
public record. OF course, some weeks
prior to that, the stand-pat organ had
stated that Mr.. Moulton was to be it's
candidate for this office, but it remains
to be seen whether or not such a bare
faced attempt to eliminate candidate
not placed in nomination by itself will
stick.
The Democrat is not at all interested
in Mr.. Fuller's candidacy. If he should
be nominated, this newspaper will use
it's best efforts to defeat him, but he,
or any other qualified elector is en-
titled to fair play; to go before the peo-
pie and let them determine whether
or not he is to have place upon any
ticket.
The intent of the organ was, no
doubt, to try and eliminate Mr.. Fuller
by Ignoring him. Now that it is called
the organ will probably not have the
nerve to state it's real motive in thus
ignoring Mr.. Fuller and will probably
try to crawl out by saying that the
failure to give him a place with the
other two candidates was an "over-
sight
And that will be good enough for the
marines, no doubt.

HEAT AND WIND,

Sunday was the warmest day of
the summer, the mercury climbing up
to 95 in the shade. 1t cooled off in
the evening and about o'clock yester-
day morning hurricane swept over
the city, doing considerable damage
to gardens and trees. 1t was over
in quarter of an hour. Yesterday
afternoon there was another heavy
wind, which came up suddenly, and
the glass was broken in many doors
which were slammed to by the gale.
The wind was followed by refresh
ing rain. The shower was not heavy
one nor did it last long, but it was
sufficient to cool the atmosphere, set
tie the dust and do a lot of good to
the crops, spring wheat especially be-
ing benefited.

HONEST JOURNALISM,

There are all kinds of men en-
gagged in the profession of journalism,
of course; good, bad and Indifferent.
There are men who place this pro-
fession, as leader and molder of
public opinion, along lines Of high
principle and endeavor; and there are
those at the opposite extreme, who
hesitate at no lie or Misrepresentation
OF fact in their columns for pecuniary
or partisan gain.
The last two issues of a weekly con-
temporary have placed that once hon.
ored journal at the bottom of the lat
ter list. 1t is matter of journalistic
ethics to give the truth, at least, when
purporting to be narrating facts, al
though these same facts may be treat
ed with strong solution of sophistry
on the editorial page. But when the
weekly paper referred to attempts to
speak OF the progressive party, it's
master mind" fairly grovels in mis-
representation and palpable falsehood
that is as revolving as it is indecent
This newspaper takes the matter up
solely in the interest of decent jour
nalism. In the Argus report of the
meeting of progressives, after the
Dixon meeting, it was stated that
fusion with the republicans was advo.

then by the use of the same wonder,

THE ADVANCING TIDE OF
BUSINESS.

The building permits issued in the
city Of New York for the month of
June, 1914, represented values of 25
per cent greater than those issued dur
ing June, 1913, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer.
1t is stated that sales of bonds in the
United States since January l are
greater by 18 per cent than they were
in the same period Of last year.
The increasing payrolls in the Pitts
burg industrial district are evidence of
better business that cannot be contro-
verted by the most obstinate of the
pessimists.
The record-breaking narves Of
wheat and the large and pressing for
eign demand for it is a stimulus to
business that will be felt in every ham
let, every village, every town, every
clyt, every state in the Union
The cargoes of the productions of
our soil which will go to foreign coun-
tries during the next twelve months
will furnish immense traffic to the var
ious transportation lines of the United
States, as well as bring to our agricul-
turists great sums of ready cash.
1t does not take long for the intelli-
gent American citizens to grasp and
understand the psychological effect up
on business throughout the Union of
great crops to be sold at good prices,
and that condition seems to be the for
tunate one in which our country finds
itself today.
The farmers and the planters now
seem certain of large cash returns
from the products of their lands, and
the manufacturers and the merchants
of the Union have an ideal season of
profitable trade before them if the es-
Inmates of the harvests are realized.
The Enquirer has for months called
attention to the small stocks of ma
terials in the hands of manufacturers
and of merchandise in the shops and
stores of the merchant, wholesale and
retail, and the pressing demand that
will come upon both merchant and
manufacturer when the retail pur-
chasing becomes active this summer
and autumn.
That Well-knOwn authority in mer-
Ichandising, Marshall Field & Co., in
their last weeks review of trade,
!called attention to this existing con-
lditiOn of extremely low stocks on
hand, and emphasized this point as
to the call that would come upon the
merchants and the manufacturers un.
der the active trade that is now an.
Ipearing.
With each passing week the ad.
, vancing tide of business will be
, marked by unemployment of workers
, by the railways, the mines, the mills
and the factories; will be noted by the
growth in value of our exports, the in
, crease in the traffic of the transporta
. tion lines, and the greater call upon
the merchants for the articles they
have for sale.
