Business, Not Sentiment

Many congressman and U. 5. SEN
ators, all of the republican faith, are
writing letters to Montana people
telling them what a good congress-
woman Miss jeanette Rankin will
make and predicting her election by
an overwhelming majority. Probably
the greater number of these letter
writer's never saw Miss Rankin, don't
know her or anything about her ex-
cept that she is the republican candi-
date at the coming election. Their
recommendations therefore should be
taken for what they are worth--mere
campaign literature.
Montana voters can and will form
their own conclusions without the aid
of such influences. Miss Rankin is
undoubtedly very estimable womens,
but can Montana afford to jeopardize
it's great interests at this by turning
fadist? The election of represen-
tative in congress is a matter of
business, not sentiment.

Demands for Fewer Laws

MANY candidates for Legislative OFF,
ces are promising to enact no new
laws, but to repeal some.
Public sentiment and business in
terests are demanding more and more
a let-up in the volume of legislation.
Still many polit:cal conventions
adopted platforms pledging candidates
to enact new laws if elected.
If all the measures promised are
brought before the state lawmaklnng
bodies, there will be perfect deluge
of new legislation, and lawyers and
courts will have the time Of their
lives in giving it logical interpreter
ton.
The statute books of every state in
the Union is burdened already with
laws--more laws than are needed or
than can be enforced. Repeal is more
necessary than new laws, and amend
ment of existing statutes, with view
to avoiding contradiction and promot-
ing uniformity, is most essential OF
all. Business is throttled or hamper
ed on all sides by conflicting and con-
Trajectory laws and regulating COM
missions.
In the language of Thomas Jeffer-
son, that community which is gov
erned" least is governed best. 1t is
the fashion with the thoughtless to
Judge of legislators value by the
number of bills that he introduces,
and with too many legislators to think
they are neglecting their duty and
not earning their salary unless they
propose new act every day. The
truth is that the country would in
many instances be better served and
would save money if its lawmakers
were paid for doing nothing at ell.

3464 BUSHELS OF SpUOS
GROWN ON ELEVEN ACRES

j. A. McGeorge, living south
west of Roman about eight miles,
raised 1866 bushels of potatoes
this year from II acres of ground.
He finished digging his crop last
week and has them all safely
stored away. He was in town
the first of the week and sold
684 bushels at SIS per hundred
pounds, or at the rate of 80 cents
per bushel.
Mr.. McGeorge is an old Maine
potato raiser and prides himself
as being an expert in this line of
farming. He says he knows
there are plenty of farmers here
who know more about growing
wheat or how to grow better
stock than he does, but when it
comes to spuds he believes he
knows how, and with the record
established last year and this,
there are others who will agree
with him.
He is thinking seriously of
sorting out the spuds weighing
from a pound upward and offer
them to the Northern Pacific
dining car service. He thinks
he will have over 200 sacks of
potatoes weighing better than q
pound each.
