JUSTICE IS EXPECTED
THE government and people Of the
United states look to the imperial Ger

DAN MCKAY SAYS RAIN
SAVED NORTHERN MONTANA t

In a recent interview in one of the
Helena papers, Dan Mckay of Clas-
COW. and best known throughout the
state as the county splitter" says
the big rains came to northern III on
tana in the nick of time. He de-
clares that these rains saved the
northern section of Montana from
financial disaster by just "a hours,
and as a result of the three-incf
downpour bankers and money lend
ers are actually hustling to get rid
Of their surplus cash.
The northern section of the state
was in bad shape for want of rain.
Mr.. Mckay declares, and bankers
had agreed that unless it rained by
May 18th they --ould call all loans
and suspend business. Many bust
ness men also We're discouraged and
had refused settlers credit.
''And then the rain came," said
Mr.. Mckay. 1T started to rain on
May 18th, just "a hours before it
had been decided to curtail loans
and credit, and it kept it up until
three inches had fallen. AS re-
suit, everything is rosy again. Inter-
est rates have actually dropped
within the last week and bankers
are out hustling to get rid of their
surplus cash.
""This is true all over Montana,
which has the biggest wheat acreage
of it's history. Valley county alone
has twice as much wheat sowed this
year as last, and farmers will be in
excellent financial condition at the
close of the summer for the crop is
now practically assured if it doesn't
rain another drop.

Brown is probably the oldest settler
in this section of the country, hav-

can tell some startling tales of the
early days when Montana was infest-
ed mostly with hostile Indians and
buffaloes. In 1865 he freighted
from the mouth of Milk river to Hell
ena, when the water in the Missouri
was SO low that the steam boats
could not run to Fort Benton.-

What the Elaa Means.

Chicago Tribune: No better words
could be said on Flag day than those
of President Wilson, speaking at
Washington recently:
"For me the flag does not express a
mere body of vague sentiments. 1t is
the embodiment not of sentiment,
but of a history, and no man can
rightly serve under that flag who has
not caught some Of the meaning of
that history"
Americanism, which the flag SYM
tolizes, does not mean living on the
North American continent between
the Canadian and the Mexican lines.
It means understanding and sympa-
thizing with what the American repub-
lie has been or striven to be and
strives to be. 1t means living whole
heartedly in its traditions, at one
with its spirit and its aspirations.
We give too little thought to Amer
icanism in this sense to intelligent in
structien in our history and the in
depreciation of our past to the young.
