Prudent Nation

To "chuck" the Monroe doctrine and
forget the open door in China, as the
New Republic says, would tend to re-
lieve future tension and greatly min
imize the risk of war with Germany
and Japan. But on what indication
can we build expectation that either
policy will be abandoned by the peo-
pie of America? Is it likely that the
Wilson administration will risk the
coming election on that proposal7 Or
that the Republican party or the
Progressives under Roosevelt will go
before the country on that issue?
Even tho these causes of potential
friction could be removed the United
States undefended would not have de-
pendable insurance against war. Wars
spring from many sources. We went
to war with England century ago
not over disputes about territory,
but over our rights at soa-chiefly be-

contested.
For county officers on the DEM
ocratic ticket it appears that
Adams, Cooney, Buckhouse,
Heyfron and Mason are nomi-
mated; Prescott for county COM
missioner; Green for sheriff; An
gevine for attorney; Roberts for
auditor; Arnold for public ad-
ministrator, other places uncon-
tested.
For judge on the republican
ticket the nomination goes to
Lentz, Taylor and Burleigh, and
on the democratic ticket it will
be Duncan, Hall and McCulloch,
either one of whom should be
able to beat Burleigh at the gen.
eral election.
Only about so per cent of the
vote was cast in Missoula county
as whole, while on the reser-
walton not to exceed SO per cent
of the vote was out. This fact
accounts for the loss to the res
ervation of at least one place on
the ticket, and the people here
should not complain hereafter of
Missoula "hogging' everything.
If voters in the county will not
turn out and vote for local cam
didates it comes with bad grace
to ''holler" afterward. DR.. Res
ner should have gone off the res
ervation with 300 majority, but
he fell 200 short of that figure.
That would not have nominated

while Frank J. Edwards of Hell

ination for governor, with Cooney
of Great Falls and Galen of Hell
ena next in order named. Farr
of Miles City, and Miss jean
cite Rankin of Missoula, are
in the lead for representatives in
congress, with Miss Rankin GER
tain of one of the nominations,
but Linderman is giving Farr
close race for the other place.
Gov. Stewart is renominated,
but Miles Romney beat him in
Butte and other labor centers.
Evans is renominated and the
other democratic nominee for
congress will be either Cults of

not definitely settled.

SLUMP IN WHEAT MARKET

Chicago, Aug 29.--Roumania's dec
laration Of war smashed the wheat
market
Opening prices showed fall in
some cases amounting to 5A cents a
bushel. September delivery, which
closed at $1.51A, started at $1.46@
1.48h. Other options broke wildly.
General rushes to sell took place
and sales were enlarged by the in
creased chances of a general railway
strike in the United States.
Before the descent of price could
be checked losses that reach to 81h
cents a bushel were shown for the
principal trading month, December,
which sold as low as $l.45H.
Although the tremendous pressure
to unload holdings carried away tenn
porarily all their considerations the
extraordinary break in value proved
too tempting fror buyers and the mar
ket rallied 81 cents from the lowest
level which had been touched
The upturns, however, left prices
still 3A to cents down.
Bear traders generally viewed the
action of Roumania as likely to prove
a big factor in forcing a more speedy
end of hostilities, or would at least
tend to hurry the opening of the Dar-
danelles and so release huge Russian
shipments of wheat.
