HEAVY PROFIT MADE

Helena. March 14.--An order has
been issued by the public service CON-
mission of Montana to the Thompson
Fails Water company, making substAn :
tial reduction in all rates heretofpr
charged to consumers. The company
is e. privately owned affair. 'che
rates must be established 20 days
after date.
In the first place the commits sion
finds that the valuation placed by the
company OF $4,000, is too high, the
plant being surveyed and appraised at
$4,000 by the commission. Never
thcless under the only flat rate system
Of 81 a month for residence and IS a
month for saloons, etc. yielded about
20 Per cent profit on the valuation az
found by the commission.
Secondly. the commission finds that
the income derived from the plant
upon the present basis of rates in more
than a fair profit; that the service at
present is inadequate and inef sicient
and that certain betterments shoAld be
made at once to stop leakage and in
crease the pressure Of the gravity sys-
tenn. The commission orders a rsduc-
ton in rates. Residences Of five
rooms are granted rates Of $3.50 and
boarding houses $3.50.

'M|SSDUlA JUDGMENT
UPHELD IN DECISION
Supreme Court Affirms
Verdict in Case of Scheffer
Against Milwaukee.
RADICAL PRECEDENT
Railroad Must Do More
Than Build Stock Fences,
Holloway DEGREES.
RADICAL PRECEDENT

The judgment Of the district court
OF Missoula in favor of Peter Schcffer
against the Milwaukee railroad for
damages for livestock killed on the
right Of way has been affirmed by a
decision by Associate Justice Hollo-
way Of the supreme court. The court
holds. in effect, that the construction
OF fence does not absolve the rail-
road from liability; that continuing
obligation to keep the stock off is i'm
posed.
The stock belonging to Scheffer had
wandered onto the tracks through a
private gate left open by some person
unknown. The district court rendered
Judgment against the road for the
damages for the stock killed. The
defendant attacked the Judgment on
the grounds that the plaintiff had
Tailed to allege and prove that the
railway company knew that the gate
was open or that 1t was open for such
length OF time that notice could be i'm
puted. Justice Holloway quoted from
section $50 OF the statutes, in enacting
which, lie says, it was the intention of
the legislature to change the rule of
Inability heretofore recognized and APP
pied. and to require a railroad COM
pany. at its peril. to make and MAIN
tain good and sufficient fence on both
sides OF its tracks or respond in dam
ages for domestic animals killed or in
jured by reason Of it's failure to do so.
unless the owner Of the animals is at
fault. The continuing obligation, he
says. is imposed to maintain such
fence in condition to effectuate the
purpose intended.

(By J. F. CHASE, Farm Management,
Expert of Montana State College.)
DO you. Mr.. Farmer, know how
much YOU made last year?
Are You one of the many who get up
early and go to bed late, working like
galley slaves meanwhile, yet never are
quite able to get as much out OF all
their labor and capital as the hired
man gets out of his wages? Do YOU
live with a mortgage between you and
the sun. and with your shins just one
jump ahead of the wolf?
II you aren't one Of those unhappy
farmers you know lots of them. But
do you know why they aren't as rich
as their neighbors?
It's because they don't know what
they're doing.
Now that's not news. Lots of farm
ers have tried keeping books and have
been discouraged by the complexity
of the process. That's the trouble.
Most records are too complicated. But
the government has a model account
ing system that is simple enough for
anyone. yet is as effective as a bank
record.
The department of agriculture in
troduced the system in 1913 in one
state. Last year the system was in
use in "a states in 2O4 areas among
STA farmers. In Montana alone, $40
farmers in seven areas were using it.
This record avoids the cumbersome,
incomplete features of former account
Ing systems. Why no. try it?

Some of the belligerents have a censorship that may be described as fairly complete. We know, for in- stance, just what the British authori- ties want us to know of some of the happenings on the British isles. Some time later we may have other reports which, however. we do not credit be- cause we had already made up our minds. according to the censored ana dcctored stuff, of course. All nations trtat us and everybody else somewhat iu the same fashion. After while we learn the real truth, perhaps. and it doesn't make much difference any way. as 1t Is not our war.
 But for that matter, all rulers are pretty much the same. Our own good democratic president has worked a c,rs.rship on us that has been m >re u,aIly complete than any in Europe sra he has ktpt 1t up for months. For i,asons that can only be imagin- eJ and tor which he himself could

H.n no real excuse, In all probahlll- ts. he i.as kCrt the people of this corhtry who are paying the bills in ignorance o. the fact that we lave mlngo for a number of months. Just how long 1t has been the lord only knows, and maybe somebody or other ir the navy or war departments. In both theee repuhlloe our marines and blue 1aeksst have fought q number Of pitched battles with the half casts natives. of full blooded niggers if you don't like It so well, and our men have not always got the best Of 1t. The reason for this has been that acting under cautious instructions from Wilson our naval comman iars must wire the White House before they can bat an eyelash. If, as yss- terday, one marine was killed and course open was to take the killed and wounded aboard ship and wire the White House for instructions. Not the war department, mind you, bu;
 the White House. At the war de-
 partmeat are red blooded men who
 know Just what should be done under
 such circumstances. But in the White
 House is man who has fine brain
 but 1t Is good only for thinking.
 When he faces a situation that calls for action he Is seized with fit of trembling. He cannot act. He never did a thing in his life. At the very though of acting he becomes paraiyz- ed He never has been other than an academician and 1t is useless to expect him to change. Not only that. but if he has a good man under him he emasculates him by taking from him all power to do anything. He is still allowed to discuss certain things, such as what good the democratic ad- ministration ls doing for farmers and such tommy rot But a man Ike Dewey or Funston who is capable of action. good two listed action. is al- lowed to do nothing whatever until tlmid, fearful, vascillating academic mind his considered the matter for days. for weeks, for months. for years and forever-and nothing ever done.
 Probably Mr. Wilson will never explain why he has let Americans get shot down by Hatians without any attempt at punishment. He will never tell why he has kept such a strict censorship over Haitian and San Do- clashes with Americanmar But he does not have to explain this, bt cause we know now that 1t was due to the approaching election.
 Why our men were ever landed in Haiti and San Domingo is still a question but now that they are there why don't they do their work and get out7 Here Is one case at least where our army and navy are fully equal to the Job, and If the presidents in- tellect told him that our marines should interefre at all, why does it not also tell him that our army and navy should step in and finish the Job?
