THE PROGRESS OF TisEE

Several years ago a cumbersome
contrivance OH two wheels made a
appearance and created a furore of
ridicule, laughter and jeers 1t was
the bicycle. 1t was called rich
mans toy and a molycoddle's play
thing and a short life was predicted.
But the prophets were at fault, the
bicycle became the greatest craze
as a practical necessity for people
who find it necessary to cover
ground hurriedly and yet can not at
'Ord the more expensive means.
A few years later another ugly
looking monster puffed and snorted
and ratified it's way into public no.
tice, leaving in it's wake streak of
smoke and fould smelling odors. 1t
was the automobile, and it too, was
greeted with wild shouts and grim
aces OF ridicule. The wise and the
unwise both predicted it's failure as
a practical vehicle OF motive power.
Vet the millions in use today testify
to the falseness of the greatest OF
our prophets.
A few weeks ago there appeared
i'll one Of our Atlantic coast ports a
great and powerful merchant sub
marine. 1t came from Germany and
had nosed it's way bt heath the sur
race into neutral waters despite the
Watchfulness of the warsllips of the
allies. Another furore was created
and the newspapers were filed with
accounts Of the wonderful craft that
had made it's way across the Atlant-
ic with a cargo of goods. Again
the prophets see failure ahead, but
there are those who believe the
Deutschland to be but the harbinger
Of a great feet OF underwater crafts
capable OF conducting commercial
relations with other countries ire
spective Of blockades or enemy ships
of war.
These few instances but illustrate

and which substantiates his state
ment that he has never hesitated in
giving full support TO every legisla
tive encouragement which will tend
to assist in developing and upbuild-
ing the industries of the state Of
Montana.
The second charge is one OF ex-
IRENE gravity and consists OF an ac.
cusation against Mr.. Edwards charg
ing him with being the owner OF
newspapers. This indeed is a most
serious charge and Mr.. Edwards evil
IDENTIFY realizes it for he states
without being catfish and charging
envy-that he does not own news
paper except some minority stock
in one, and we can we'll believe his
statement after reading the publ
cation which he is charged with
owning, and which contains very

surcharged feelings had to be re
lieved and their spleen vented upon
someone, SO Mr.. Edwards was select
ed 10 he its recipient,
The fourth charge is one Of eS-
treme importance indeed being no
less than that labor union endorsed
Mr. Edwards for he office OF United
States senator.
The fifth and eliminating charge
against Mr.. Edwards is the state
ment that he Is a representative OF
the liquor interests The absurdity
OF this charge is best known by the
public statement made by Mr.. Ed
wards himself, in which he states:

question is most freely given. Dur

LANE ON MEXICO.

1t is touching 50 read what Sec
rotary Of the Interior Lane has to
say Of the sorrow OF thepoor poems
Of Mexico and what must be done to
bring to them justice and enlighten-
ment. We do not give the secre-
tary credit for believing What he
says, for he is sharp as a steel crap,
but he is our 10 defend Mr.. Wilson g
policy, and like gifted lawyer. is
trying to make the worst appear
the better cause.
But as secretary oil the interior
he is at least eN-OHicio the patron
saint Of the indians. NOW, TO make
parallel for his assertions on Mex
leo, let us suppose that some enemy
Of he administration should make a
report on conditions on the Navajo
Indian reservation down in New
Mexico, and that il should read
about as follows:
THE situation here is most pitia-
hle. The masses OF The people live
in What are called Wickups, that CON
tain not one modern comfort. to say
nothing OF luXuries: In them all
| did not see one bath tub: or cook

bedstead. There is not a library
The children are but half clothed
| did not see physicians sign in
the place. Exercising the brutal la W
of might, the men compel the women
to do all the work Some Of these
women are real artists. They weave

blanket which the men sell for high
prices and | am told as a rule gam
bic off the money There is but one
miserable school-house and nc
church.
The government has taken from
them their great tracts OF land, pay
ing them but pitiable price.
Il see but one hope for these poor
people, and that is to shake Off the
/ tyranny of the United States, and fol
them to begin the redemption OF
their country from within them
selves. y
The foregoing would be just as
sensible as are Mr.. Lanes lamenta
tions over the poems of Mexico. THAI
is not ALL Secretary Lane knows it
and our belief is that when in pri
vate he reads one of his own inter
views about Mexican poems, he toss
es a penny in the air to see whether
he ought to cry or laugh over it,
