We are deporting ourselves
with great, good common
sense in Teton county this
year. No political issues to
distract us, no county division
schemes to keep us up nights
porting over mysterious maps
and passing upon the person
mel of the county officials of
the proposed county. We
are back to true values this
year; making the possibilities
of a bountiful crop the main
chance. Really, nothing else
matters for the present. We
have lived long enough on
artificial stimulation and must
put grain in the bin to insure
permanent progress. Coun-
ty seats and the like are all
right, but men cannot live
on county seats alone. They
must have bread and they
must raise it out of the
ground. So it is mighty re-
freshing to note the zeal and
undivided attention that is
being given to the real and
permanent sources of pros
perity in our good county
this year, attended by a fine
optimism and a sincere de-
sire to do things better than
ever, prohting by all the err
rors of the past years since
farming in this new region
began.
Dan Mckay may go over
to Austria or Italy or Tur-
key and assist in the rather
exhilarating if somewhat ar
duous task of Splitting ter
ritory. The present rulers
are apt to be un-throned any
day and founders of new en-
pires with sufficient intrepid
ity to stay on the works may
be scarce. We shall keep the
noiseless tenor of our way
while Dan is over yonder,
in the thick of things.
1t will not always be like
this, SO let us make the besl
of the situation and loll ir
peace, plenty and prosperity
Next year we shall have Z
sizzling national, state and
county campaign, with Z
myriad of referendum, initia.
tive and some other kinds Of
issues. We are happy now
II we only knew it and while
it lasts should make a high
resolve to enjoy it to the full

The law of over action
and reaction still holds. Cut
Bank never craved the repu-
tation of being a boom town.
And today it is the best town
in northern Montana, with
more permanency and future
promise than any town in
this new region of the west.

ALASKA DEMOCRATS AND PATRONAGE

 The Empire believes that the rank and file Of the Democratic party in Alaska like the rank and file of the Democratic party of the Nation. is democratic and
 more concerned over the translation of democratic prin cipes Into realities of government than is over who s holding this office or that-as long the people are getting good service I believes that there is world OF ieritiate use for the Democratic party in Alaska and it believes that Democrats know ths and will make t apparent when they assemble again in conyen ton as they made 1t plain at the skagway convention in 1914 It believes that the Democrats of Alaska do not regard ,he party simply vehicle for the use of men ambitious to get the public payroll but as an organization which aid the President and Che other great men Of the organization in the task Of devet opng Alaska.

 Mr. George w. Perkins shares Secretary Reoiied's alarms over the menace that Europe will dump cheap good things on us after the close of the war
 But Mr. Perkins disagrees with Secretary Redfeld as to the remedy.
 Mr. Redned is not quite sure what be thinks the remedy should be- although he is sure he thinks it should be a protectyt tariff
 Mr. Perkins is very partial to protective tariff and he Is not opposed to the dumping of good things under certain conditions It may be remembered, for instance that under the protective tariff which the last Democratic Congress laid sacreligious hands on Mr. Forakers Harvester Trust dumped good things on Eur ope much cheaper prices that allowed Che people of the United States to have these good things.
 Can t be that Mr. Perkins is so anxious now to have that protective tariff restored in order that not only Americans may be saved from the blight of good things cheap but that he may again infict on Europ cans Che blight of cheap good things?

5set was the method of distributing
he county road and bridge fund, as
adopted by majority of our county
commissioners. One township with
many creeks and guIlies is unable
70 secure any assistance az all from
ihis fund, although If compelled to
keep Up the necessary bridges in the
township il will require nearly the
whole road levy. Another township
adjoining, not go unfortunately 10
Gated, boasts Of receiving better
than one thousand dollars from this
fund. Another township complains
Of being unable to get one dollar Of
this fund TO repair a bridge or for
any other purpose except the prom
ise Of contract by the County
Commissioners (for the sum of one
hundred and fifty dollars) TO drag
about three miles of gravel road
that has scarcely enough loose
gravel upon it to fill wheelbarrow.
The unjustness and dissatisfaction
shown by the unfortunate townships
who are taxed and compelled by
law to pay into this fund and who
are unable to get single dollar of
the above named fund was quite
pronounced.
The remainder of the afternoon
was given over to Brother G. X.

cational campaign in this state on
the subject of Rural Credit and Ma

address was both interesting and
