Gophers are Becoming
More Numerous

Many farmers are working Just to
support a colony of gophers. They
either don't know low to get rid of
the pests or don't realize what thew
eat and destroy. Every pair costs
the farmer a bushel of grain a year.
That is what the agricultural X
pertinent stations tell us, and it's
true. When the gopher comes out
of bis winter quarters in the early
spring, he is a very hungry individ-
ual, but even then he is slow to eat
anything he does not like. His spe-
cialty is the tender green shoots of
the growing grain upon which he
feasts ravenously. If the tender
shoots that the gopher destroys in
fhe early spring were allowed to
mature, they would bear a great
deal of grain. In badly infested
fields the gopher destroys a great
part of the grain before it has a
chance to get started.
Every farmer ought to kill the
gophers on his farm. Its easy to do.
Get Kill Em-Quick" and follow
the simple directions on the the
package. Kill En- Quick" has
never failed to Kill every gopher
for ! cent an acre. 1t is absolutely
guaranteed. money back if it fails.
Is is effective at anv time of wear
when gophers appear.
If every farmer in a
community uses Kill En- Quick
faithfully this year when e X t
spring comes, t h won't be
any left. You a use "Kill-Em-
Quick" any time, for gophers prefer
its sweet taste even to fresh green
shoots. Get 1t from Cut Bank Drug
Co., at Cut Bank.
1t puts the GO" in gophers.

We imagine that Presiden,
Wilson had a quiet chuckle
up his sleeve and that other
members of his sect who
possess a sense of humor
laughed softly when Repub-
lican house leader Mann, in
the course of a castigation,
termed him a ''blue-nosed
Presbyterian" The eastern
Press has waxed mirrhful
over it and the incident has
been forgotten.
The Great Falls Tribune
started the Big Sob here in
Montana, declaring that the
utterance of the Republican
house leader was a rank
travesty on courtesy and good
breeding, and called upon all
Presbyterians to resent it.
Other smaller papers have
sobbed sadly about it, in an
attempt to make it a cam
paign issue.
The Presbyterians are not
the only ones who have been
hayed by public men and
had mild sarcasm poked at
them by the public press.
The Methodists, Baptists
and other Protestant church,
es have come in for inelegant
Applications. "Hard-shell
Methodist is a term that
originally was meant to be
reproachful and which has
since been appropriated by
the members of that sect.
The Catholics have been
accused of embracing the
profession of train robbers,
gun and dynamite advocates
and have been charged with
packing artillery, following
dark secret code Instructions
from Rome. Members Of
this church have always TAX
en- these reports with a
hearty laugh, knowing that
people of good sense and
intelligence pay no attention
to them.
No one can justly accuse
the President of being a
narrow sectarian. In fact,
he has proven his broadre ss
Of religious view at all times
and has refused to lend his
ear to the fanatics and bigots,
That is why the appellation
of Mr.. Mann carries no sig
mfcance. We dare say the
house leader was having q
funny spell when he uttered
it.

Washington. September 10-Secretary
Baker today granted the request of the
American Mexican commission to have
Maj Gen. Tasker H. Bliss, assistant chief
of staff go to New London. Conn. to
give the commissioners information he
has gathered first hand concerning the
military situation along the international
boundary.
General Bliss was authorized to hold
himself in readiness to respond to a sum-
mons and will leave tomorrow, provided
he is wanted. The general is regarded as
one of the armys most competent au-
thorities on the Mexican question. AS
assistant chief of staff he has more to
do with the administration of military
operations along the border than any
other officer. except Major General Fun
ston. and recently he completed per-
sonal inspection of all the border militia
camps.
Pressure from political and business
quarters is being brought to bear upon
Secretary Baker and administration Off
Guard organizations from the border.
Members of Congress, business houses
and friends and relatives of guardsmen
have deluged the department the last lew
days with requests for the release of the
militia The department has informed all
inquirers that action will be taken as
soon as practicable. Secretary Baker al
ready has indicated that as soon as the
units now en- route to the border arrive
other organizations will be withdrawn.
Guardsmen still in their state camps viii
be given a tour of border field service
before being mustered out.

The American Federation of Labor Is
not concerned with the politics OF any

vided among all parties, but from time
to time, and when the public interest
demands, these records are sent out from
the office of Samuel Gompers without
elaboration or comment.

WINTER SESSION
TO HAVE PROBLEM
OF ADJUSTMENT

known that President Wilson is not
satisfied with the action of the con-
ferees on the revenue bill who struck
out" the provision for continuing ap-
preparation for the maintenance of the
commission could be destroyed by fail
ure of Congress in the future to vote
pay for the members. The commission
created by President Taft as is re-
called, was permitted to die by the dem
ocratic Congress which declined to ap-
propriate salaries.
There are already charges to the ef-
feet that the action of the conferees is
proof that the creation of the commits
sion by the President was for the sake
of political expediency-as an appeal
to certain progressives who dislike re-
publican principles but do want some
assurance of protection for American
industries. In December. Mr.. Wilson, it
| is indicated, will make an effort to
lrectify what he considers a blunder.
LIST is LONG
, The list of legislation which will
again require attention of Congress Is
extensive. There is no question but that
| in December an interesting problem
| will involve the justice or expediency
| in the enactment Of retaliatory meas
ures against Great Britains effort to
curtail American trade. Great Britain
| is preparing to protest against the
statute giving the President authority
to deny clearance to ships which refuse
/ to accept American cargoes, and to use
the army and navy in. carrying out the
purposes of the act.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that in the enactment Of retalia-
| tory measures, Congress exceeded the
depressed desire of the administration.
Secretary Lansing states that the ad-
ministration asked only for aslaw CIV
| ing the President authority to deny
clearance in an mergency-and not for
a law empowering him to use the army
and navy and take other drastic and
1 radical action.

the future be a live and dramatic issue
