SOCIALIST LEADER PRERICTS
A REPUBLICAN VICTORY

The Republican party will win
the national race of 1915 and Col.
Roosevelt will be the party leader,
in the opinion of Eugene V. Debbs,
socialist leader, who spoke to $500
people at the auditorium at Thief
River Falls, Mimi. Further, Mr..
Debs looks for split in the Demo-
cratic party similar to that which
disrupted the Republicans in 1912,
with Mr.. Bryan as the paramount
cause.
This, he states, will SURELY come
II Bryan follows out the plan many
are intimating he will, fusion with
the prohibition party.
Asked if he would be the candi-
date for president on the socialist
ticket, Mr.. Debs stated he would
not seek it, but intimated it should
not be declined if he was called.
He would consider it duty to his
party.
Roosevelt will play an important
part in the campaign of 1916, says
Mr.. Debbs, if not the leader of the
G. o. P, he will be in the councils
OF the schemes and is to be counted
with. Republicans are getting to-
gether rapidly and solid front
will be presented to a split demo-
cracy.
In his address he touched lightly
on peace, national issues and the
administration stating that peace
is the paramount issue and all par
ties should work for it.

THE MONTANA EXPERIMENT
STATION AT BOHEMIAN.

The agricultural experiment sta
ton was established atBozeman by
act of the state legislature in the
spring of 1898. Gallatin county
donated 160 acres of land as an ex-
detrimental farm. The support for
the experiment station work was
from the Hatch act, passed by the
United States congress in March,
1887, which gave $4,000 per year
to each state ito conduct original
researches or verify experiments"
In March, 1906, the United States
congress supplemented this dona-
ton to the state by the passage Of
the Adams act, giving an additional
S15,Ov0 per year ito be applied only
to paying the necessary expenses of
conducting original researches or
experiments bearing directly on the
agricultural industry.
During the past IL years the state
has supplemented these funds and
established sub-stations in various
parts of the state. Cooperative ar
rangements have also been entered
into with the United States depart
ment of agriculture, and with pri-
vate parties, that have still further
increased the funds for agricultural
Investigations. For the current year
about 100000 is available from all
sources for this work.
