National Guard Not
on Border for Drill
Wilson Tells Distressed Mother
Soldiers Are Performing Du-
Ties Necessary TO Nation.

WASHINGTON. July 26.--ln reply to
complaint from Mrs. Henry smith.
or Ninamac Ind, who has :; son in the
National Guard. President Wilson wrote
to-day that the guard was being kept
on the Mexican border TO protect the
country, not for drill. and that the
service the men were performing was
An honor to them and a necessity to
the United States Ills letter WAS made
public because many communications
similar to that OF Mrs. Smith arc being
received and to answer criticisms that
the men of the National Guard are not
being properly cared for. The letter
follows:
Your letter OF July 2Sd distrcsses
me good deal. because 1t shows me
that YOU have not been correctly in
formed as TO the purpose of having the
National Guard at the border. 1t is not
for the purpose of drill, but FOR tho pur-
pose OF protecting the country. The
service the men are performing there
is an honor TO them and necessity
to the United States. ! cannot believe
that the men in the National Guard
would wish to I've excused from it, or
would lose heart because OF the dis
comforts and nconveniences of the
service.
The War Department has the camps
on the border under the most careful
inspections. and is using every means
known TO make them sanitary and safe
, against disease. The health record or
the men on the border. both the regu-
lars and the national Guardsmcn, is
exceptionally good
Il would not have you think that l
do not sympathizc with your distress

MAY NOMINATE CANDIDATES
ON MORE THAN ONE TICKET

The primary law provides that the
candidates of each ticket must be
printed upon separate sheet. The
voter will be given all the tickets or
ballots, and he must select the ticket
Of the party for which he desires to
vote. That is, he cannot vote part
OF one ticket and part or parts of
some other ticket or tickets. But a
voter may vote for candidate whose
name appears upon ticket other than
the one which he is voting. This may
be done by the voters writing u pom
the ballot the name of candidate up
on an opposing ticket. For instance,
if a voter wishes to vote Democratic
ticket, but wishes to vote for Jones,
who is a candidate upon the Republi-
can ticket-say for the Office of sher-
iff. In such case, the voter may
write in the name of Jones under the
heading of sheriff on the Democratic
ballot and place an X before the name
Of Jones, but such vote counts as
a Democratic vote and not Repub-
lican vote for Jones. But should a
number of Democratic voters vote for
Jones in the same manner, and as a
result, Jones receives more votes than
any of the regular Democratic cam
didates for the Office Of sheriff, then
The Glasgow courier., 1916-08-11

the county clerk, under the law, would
be obliged to declare Jones the NOM
inee of two parties. If such a con-
tingency should arise, the candidate
thus nominated upon two or more
tickets would be obliged to elect un-
der which party designation he wish
es his name to be placed upon the
ballot, and if he fails to do so, the
clerk may elect for him.
However, the likelihood of a can
didate's being nominated upon more
than one ticket is very small, and any
organized effort to so nominate a can
didate upon more than one ticket
should be deprecated, for it only tends
to confusion, and if the ballot is not
marked strictly in accordance with
the law, might, in many instances,
nullify the whole ballot. Besides,
the spirit of the primary law is that
a voter should confne his voting to the
ticket of one party.

A voter absent from place of res
idence may vote in the following man.
ner: Any voter expecting to be
absent fro mhis county on election
day may make an application to the
County Clerk of his county for an
official ballot or ballots. The appli-
cation may be made on forms to be
furnished by the County Clerk. The
application must be signed and sworn
The Glasgow courier., 1916-08-11
Absent Voters May Vote BY Mail

to by two witnesses who know the
voter making application, and the vot-
er making application must pay or
send to the County Clerk the sum
of thirty cents.
When such application is received,
properly filled out and signed, the
Clerk must send ballots to the voter
and ESQ enclose return envelope upon
:, mich must be printed the official title
and address of the Clerk, and also an
affidavit to be made by the voter and
certificate of the officer before whom
the affidavit is made. The voter may
make and subscribe the affidavit on
the return envelope at any place in
the State of Montana, and before any
officer authorized to administer oaths
The voter must mark his ballot in the
presence of such officer, but in such
manner that the officer may not see
the ballot. After marking the ballot
or ballots the same must be folded in
the presence of the officer, and each
ballot must be folded separately and
in such manner as to conceal the
vote. The folded ballot must then be
placed in the return envelope in the
presence of the officer, without de-
taching any stub or stubs and the
envelope securely sealed. The officer
shall then sign the affidavit, set forth
his official title, and affix his SEAL The
voter shall thereupon personally del
iver or mail the envelope to the Coun-
ty Clerk.
The foregoing applies to voter who
expects to be absent from the county
on election day and who applies for a
ballot or ballots before the same have
been printed. But even after the Off
cial ballots have been printed, voter
expecting to be absent on election day,
may in the manner above provided
vote before he leaves the county, eth
er before the County Clerk or some
officer authorized to administer oaths.
A voter, even after voting in the
manner above provided for absent
voters, may, if in his precinct on ell
ection day, vote in person, provided
his absent ballot has not already been
deposited in the ballot box. If after
voting in the manner prescribed for
absent voters, the voter appears in
person at his precinct on election day,
and before his absent ballot or ballots
have been deposited in the ballot box,
the voter may require the envelope to
be opened in his presence and the
ballot deposited in the ballot box; or
as hereinabove stated, he may vote
in person if his absent ballot or bal
lots have not been deposited in the
ballot box. Even after voting in the
manner provided for absent voters,
if for any reason the absent ballot
has been rejected, in that event the
elector may vote in person.
The law relative to absent voters
provides a severe penalty for any
false affidavit or certificate, either
upon the part of the voter or the
officer before whom the affidavits are
made.
The law further provides that if
after voting as an absent voter, the
elector does not leave the county, or
returns thereto, on or before election

RAISING PURE BRED CATTLE

z. J. Foust, who owns a large farm
on the Galpin bench south of Glasgow
received young pure bred Red Poll
ed bull Thursday, that was shipped
to him by express from the Pleasant
View Stock Farm Of Erie, N. Oak.
The bull will be made the head of a
herd Of Pure Bred cattle on the Foust
farm which will be developed during
the next few years with the intention
of making a speciality of this breed
Of cattle.
The animal is only 20 months old
at this time yet he has won no less
than eight blue ribbons and two
sweepstake premiums at the various
fairs and live stock shows in the east.
At Madison, Wis, he won the Purple
ribbon for the sweepstake in his class
and age, also winning the purple rib
bon and handsome cup at the annual
stock show. At five different fairs
he was returned the first prize rib
bon and also received several special
awards for excellence in both breed
ing and class. Wherever he has been
shown he has outclassed all competi-
ton and has never been in any dan
ger from any other entry.
Happy Boy is the name Of this
scion Of noble family and Mr..
Foust expects to exhibit him at the
Valley county fair this fall for the
purpose of showing what class of cat
tie he will devote his time to raising.
AS a grower of pure bred hogs Mr..
Foust has shown his ability by the
large number of first prizes won by
his exhibits the past three years at
the Valley county fair and the addi-
tion of the Red Polled stock to his
farm marks him as leader among
the farmers who are improving the
livestock conditions throughout this
section of the state

This is Republican year both in the
nation and state. Hughes will carry
Idaho by large majority and the

encouragement he had received, es-
pecially in southwestern Idaho, is
very gratifying AS a matter of course
he will receive a big vote in the
north.
He has decided views as to the con-
duct of the chief executive of the
state, and in recent interview he
said
THE governorship, as | view it,
on account of it's various business
esponsibilities, is a serious and re-
sponsible position, affecting at some
angle the happiness and welfare of
all the people of the state. The Gov
ernor should therefore be on the
job every day, devoting his time
and talents to the states business. !"
