INFORM THE EDITOR.

One of the most difficult of the
editors jobs is to get facts about
births. marriages and deaths. People
seem to think he ought to know
these things by intuition. If that,
the birth, marriage or death is Of
such Importance in the immediate
family that it is presumed the edi-
tor will be informed by some wire
less or just grow into the Informal
tion Then, when the paper comes
out, and no mention is made of the
event, the editor is blamed for not
running a good newspaper or not
getting all the news Remember
there are a good many people in
this county. Ii the editor knew
each of them by name. besides their
family history and the chief events
in the lives of every individual, he
would not be an editor He'd be a
demi-god, resting his feet on cloud
and slipping ambrosia instead of in.
habiting a broken-down office chair
and wondering where the money
for the next white paper bill is COM
ing from. The life of the average
newspaper man is gay one. Gath.
ering news is second nature to him,
like picking his teeth with the office
pen and cussing the office towel.
Just the same there is limit to his
omniscience. Last week we thought
of a million, eight hundred and
forty-nine thousand three hundred
and sixty-four things of Importance,
besides couple of hundred thous-
and small items unworthy of men,
tion. And it was slow week. We're
anxious for news for the paper, and
it won't put you out much to drop
in the office or telephone us what's
happening at your house. Then II
the item doesn't get in the paper,
you have right to come down and
kick the stutfin out of the Office cat.
Otherwise don't blame us.

H. j. PARTRIDGE KILLED
in TROLLEY ACCIDENT

Mr.. and Mrs. G. l.. Partridge of
this city have received papers
from Toronto, Canada, telling of
the death of their nephew, H. j.
Partridge who was killed in troll
ley accident near the Canadian
city. The accident occurred as a
crowd of picnickers were returning
to their homes on a crowded trolley
car, which left the rails on sharp
curve, and fifteen people were
killed and one hundred and twenty
injured. 1t is said to have been
one of the worst disasters that ever
occurred across the line.
In speaking of Mr.. Partridge, the
Toronto Evening Telegram has the
following to say: "Harold Jaffray
Partridge, organist of the Wood
green Tabernacle, among the dead
of the Queenston disaster, hal the
promise of an exceeptional musical
career before him. At his hcme ne
was an instructor in piano. organ
and the theory of music. His pub.
lie work in connection with his pro-
fession had been with Sunday
schools. Yesterdays outing would
have been, in any event, his last
with the Woodgreen congregation,
as he had, though very 10th, decided
to accept pressing invitation from
the, board Of his home church, the
North Parkdale Methodist, to be-
come organist and choirmaster with
them. He was to have entered on
his duties on August 1st.
"Mr. Partridge was 20 years of
age and was the son of E. j. Part
ridge, 129 Grenadier road, of the
Daily Star staff. He was a gradu-
ate, of the Parkdale Collegiate In
stitute and of the Metropolitan Col
lege of Music. He leaves a widow,
who was. with him on the excursion.
She herself is suffering from a brok-
en- rib and severe bruises"

THE TAX ON AUTOMOBILES.

Automobiles in Montana are sub
ject to a special tax, not because of
anything they have done or because
of their being an expense to the
state in any way, but for the osten-
sible purpose of raising money for
building roads. The following is
from the Great Falls Tribune, a
democratic newspaper, so we cannot
the snap away:
Montana automobile owners
now pay a license tax to the state
of 50 per annum, which goes into
the state highway fund. Eventual
ly some OF this may get back to va
rious counties, provided there is any
balance left after the payment of
the expenses of the collection of the
/, tax and the expense of the highway
commission. So far the highway
commission has had little surplus
which could be divided up among
the counties, although there is a
possibility of something from that
source in the future"
The Tribune advocates a raise in
the tax so that there would be a
nice sum left after paying expenses.
Our tax now is on over $4,000 auto
mobiles and it isn't much of an
Office or commission that canot use
half the tax for salary, administra-
ton ana other expenses. Public
Office is private snap, anyway. and
the shrewd Office seeker knows the
wise thing to do is to work up any
kim of a scheme so the Office may
be what is called "self-sustai lining" :"
Once it gets under way there is no
need of appropriations from the
regular sessions of the legislature.
Over half our state expenditures
are self-perpetuating so long as the
pay of the person in Office is thus
much more secure than when de-
pendent on biennial appropriations.

DEHART TELLS OF TRIP.

On his return to Helena after his
trip with the Congressional com
mittee over the Montana Reclama-
tion projects, State Game Warden
DeHart had the following to say:
''The congressman knew of Mon
tana only by hearsay. A hu- ried
project and then the Milk river pro-
ject from the headwaters of Sher-
burne lakes in the Glacier park to
the last canal near Glasgow. Res
idents of the Milk river valley
turned out in force to receive the
visitors, and they grasped the op-
portunity to obtain comprehen-
sive idea of the project, the work
that has been done, the work that is
still to be done and what this work
means in the making of new homes
for settlers.
Mr.. DeHart says that seemingly
thecongressmen had not realized be-
fore taking this trip, the agricul-
tural worth Of Montana, and he be-
lieves they will look much more ia
vorably upon Montana projects in
the way of making appropriations
than they would have otherwise.
Senator Walsh, and Congressman
Evans and Stout, returned home
when the party disbanded at Glas-
gov, but Senator Myers is now MAX

MONTANA'S CAPITAL NEWS.

Attorney General Defines Free
hOlders.--In response to a query
from Billings as to who is eligible
to sign petitions for and remon-
strances against the issuance of
liquor licenses, and other questions
answered by the definition of free
holder, Attorney General Poindex
ter said: "The term 'freeholder' as
used in section 4, includes and COM
prehends estates of inheritance and
estates for life. (Revised codes,
44S5, 44S6.) This office has held
that where the government has is
sued it's final receipt for land to
person and nothing remains to be
done between the parties save the
formal issuance of patent by the
government, that such lands be-
come subject to taxation by the
state. (Vol. 5, opinions attorney
general, page 210.) BY party of
reasoning, such person may be re-
garded as freeholder within the
purview of the law, and 4.ence, quail
ified to sign, provided he possesses
Unnecessary qualifications as to
residence. You are further advised
that the mere fact that a freehold
estate is subject to liens or encum-
brances does not operate to divest
it of its inheritent nature; but so
long as the title remains in the
owner, he is eligible to sign a pc
tition for, or a remonstrance
against, the granting of liquor IL
cense."
