A DUTY OF THE HOUR.

These are the days when every Mon
tanan must carry his share of
responsibility for the conditions in his
own bailiwick. The state is over run
with Migrants. l. W w. propagandists
and vicious sympathixers with treason
and crime. The honest, law-abiding
and loyal people of the state must
stand ready to deal with them in a
manner that seems most fitting and
practicable under such unpleasant cir
cumstances as may arise.
1t is, of course, the business of the
governments at Washington and Helena
to extend first aid when the local au-
order too great for their resources.
While that is true, it must be remem-
bered that the national administration
is loaded to the guards with the work
of preparing and transporting an army
to France to say nothing of furnishing
a vast supply Of food for the needs of
the nation and our allies.
Governor Stewart may be depended
upon to do all that is humanely pos
sible to protect the lives and property
of the people OF this state, yet that
protection may be Inadequate If
dangerous conditions arise sudden
~ ana simultaneously in remote sec
tons OF this vast and sparsely popu-
lated commonwealth.
Work is to be resumed in the lum-
BIER camps and mills. and later in the
mines. The harvests will soon begin.
This work must be done at any cost 1t
is the country's work and the country
is at war. Any interference from the
traitors who mask as propagandists
must be stopped with stern hands.
There must be quick action if there are
attempts like those in Kansas and the
Dakotas to destroy the crops.
This is work for real men and there

1.-THE Thin Red Line"
Editor MiSSOulian.

Mr.. Kipling's well known phrase, ~
thin red line" is applicable to a marked
degree. 1t seems to me, in one of Mis-
soula's latest alleged municipal i'm
provements. Other autoists will agree.
I'm sure.
Not long since, the authorities, with
a view to indicating where automobiles
may be parked along our streets. went
forth with a brush and some red paint
and at uncertain intervals along the
curb they daubed a mark. Between
these marks and the nearest corner. we
, are told, one may not stop his ma
| chine.
One cannot but commend the mu-
nicipal economy which moved the
painters to spill their pigment so
scantily. Even in broad daylight it is
difficult to distinguish the marks from
behind the steering wheel. At night
the task becomes impossible. Only by
the most dilieent search with pocket
flash lamp can the thin red line" be
discovered.
Let's have n little more paint or =
little less absurdity.

DEFIES HIS YEARS.

The agility Of J. P. Holes of Fisher.

his seventy eighth birthday the other

80 years.

ter of some importance. because flop
is much more difficult than flip. as

should be added to the formula for

HOW IT LOOKS TO k,PLiNG,

Somebody wrote from Berlin to Lon
don as to the English and the war:
IF the English realized what the Ger
Snans will do to them if they get n
chance, the very dead in the ceme-
teries would rise up to enlist"
So Mr.. kipling said at a recruiting
meeting on June 81: IF Germany is
victorious every refinement of outrage
which is within the compass of the
| German imagination will be inflicted
upon us in every aspect of our lives.
He went on with observations that
! concern us. He said
Realize. too, that If the allies
are beaten there will be no spot
on the globe where a soul can es-
cape from the domination of this
enemy of mankind.
There has been childish talk
that the western hemisphere
would offer a refuge from oppres-
sion. Put that thought from your
mind. If the allies were defeated
Germany would not need to send
| a single battleship over the At
| lantic. She would issue an order.
and it would be obeyed.
Civilization would be bankrupt
and the western world would be
taken over with the rest of the
| wrcckagc by Germany. the re-
cciver.
Perhaps so. perhaps not; but thi
| much at least Is true: that we in tn,
