Continued Development
In Hands OF Legislature

It may not be amiss to impress
upon the members the legislature
that they are meeting to leglslatt
for a state which is bound very
soon to be one of the greatest ano
most important in the whole Union
In legislating, therefore, they
should have an eye to the future
and bear in mind that, while they
come from all sections and quar-
tiers of the state, they are the
chosen representatives of the
whole state and in enacting laws
they should consider not their per-
sonal interests or the interests
alone of the community from
they come, but they should con-
slider the interests of the state as
a whole and of all the people of
Montana.
Let the Legislation be OF n cnar-
acter to help Montana grow. Let
it be of kind to help the progress
of the state, not to hinder and
hamper it. The laws that are
passed should be laws that are
fair to all sections and to all in
terests, and that will serve to
build up this state. In consider
ing legislation be fair and be
broad, looking to the whole state
and to all its interests and looking
too to the greater state that is to
be.-Anaconda Standard.

Montana In 1916

Montana improves with age, thu
older this state grows the better
she appears. Particularly is this
true when account is taken of the
twelve-month just closed. The
average chronology of events is
not, as rule, the most interesting
reading. But there is much in
Montana's chronicle of events in
1916 that is interesting to a
marked degree.
First off, the men who make a
state, who produce the things
which make for progress and good
will on earth, have been drawing
wages that are larger than ever
they have been in Montana. In
the copper-producing centers pros
perity is wearing its very best
garb, radiant and smiling. The
big copper companies have in
creased wages, voluntarily, three
times in the year, each time a
boost of Csc for the man who
works. The price of copper never
was so high, the promise is that
the metal will continue to COM
mand this record price, for the
world needs copper-this is the
copper age.
No long stretches Of railroad
have been built in Montana in the
last year, but all the while the
roads have been doing something
in the building line,new extensions
in several parts of the state have
The circle banner. [volume] (Circle, Mont.) 1914-1939, 1917-01-19

been added to the holdings of the
roads, every day crews have
worked at repairs, so that in this
industry there has been no show
of lethargy.
Montana is going to be classed
with the big beet sugar-producing
states. For years Billings has had
a monopoly in this line, having
turned out mountains of sugar
made from beets grown in the i'm
mediate vicinity. Now come
Missoula. Hamilton and Deer
Lodge with the word that they
are going in for sugar beet grow
ing.
The lumber industry huns, the
gold mining industry huns, the
cereal and root vegetable industry
huns, the wheels in the mills hum
and the workingman huns a lively
air as he goes to his work every
day in the year, every day adding
to his bank account.
Look at Montana from any
angle and you will see one of the
best states on earth, everything is
in motion and everything spells
prosperity, health and happiness
in this favored of the many good
states in the Union.-Anaconda
