Mixing With
N0n-PurhSQnS
JEANETTE RANKIN SOCIALIST MEMBER OF CON
GRESS FROM MONTANA ELECTED ON REPJJB-
L!CAN TICKET MAKES SPEAKING TOUR
WITH NOTED DNON-PARTISAN LEADERS,

1t seems from present Developments
that "our own jeanette" is willing to
do anything to get elected to the sem
ate Of the United States for which
office she has declared herself a cam
didate.
The Montana Record Herald records
her as follows in recent article:
"Jeannette Rankin: Socialist men,
ber of congress from Montana, elected
on the republican ticket will make an
extended speaking tour with A. C.
Townley, president of the Non-Par-
tisan league and former state organ
iZer for the socialist party in North
Dakota. Miss Rankin opposed the
presidents conscription bill and re-
fused to vote for war against the i'm
perial German government. She is
we'll known as pacifist, friend of
Dunn, Campbell, Shannon. Mary
O'Neill and other socialists and Wob-
bies Of Butte. Miss Rankin's can
ddacy Tor the United States senate in
Montana will receive the support of
Townley and his friends"
Another idea of the schemes she
has adopted to attract attention is the
one contained in an eastern publica-
ton which says:
at remains for Miss Jeanette Ran
kin, the only woman member of con-
gress to cap the climax of legislative
manhandling Of the newspaper situa-
ton.

DROUGHT STRICKEN FARMERS TO Be
GIVEN AID BY COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
STATE COUNCIL OF DEFENSE MONDAY
PLAN RELIEF AND ALL
GATHERING is CALLED BY
AND BANKERS ARE URGED TO ATTEND

Relief is in sigh for the farmers
ef Valley and jsl..ng counties who
have lost their 1918 chances for crops
by the recent drought. Several prom
inent business men of Glasgow will
take part in the movement on foot
for assisting those in need.
Representatives of practically all
lines of industry in Montana will at
tend the meeting of the state council
of defense to be held here Monday
to take action looking toward secur-
ing federal aid for the relief of farm
ers who have suffered whole or partial
crop failure for two yeyars and who
must abandon their farms unless re-
lief is forthcoming.
In calling the meeting, Governor
Stewart wrote to members: II am
anxious that every member should be
present and that each one may come
fortified by such information as may
be available to him, or to her, on the
crop situation. We will be asked to
take action of some kind and we
ought to be as we'll advised as pos
sible. l have gone about the state
some and feel that l have fair de-
gree of information on the subject,
but l know that you will have more
information about your part of the
state than any yone else can acquire.
There will be county councilmen, rep
resentatives of farmers organizations
bankers, government officials and
other interested parties present to
discuss the matter"
All are Willing.
Secretary c. D. Greenfield, who at
tended the meeting of the presidents
of the farm bureaus of Havre, where
arrangements were made for the
gathering Of data so that detailed in
formation would be available as to
conditions, states in a letter inviting
persons to the meeting, that he SUBJ
ject of cooperative effort was taken
up with Governor Stewart and mer-
chants, bankers, elevator and -four
mill men.
81 have found all of these interests
are quite willing to cooperate most
heartily in the plan outlined at Havre
to secure federal aid" he continues.
~Whatever success may attend this
effort to obtain federal aid, it is be-
lieved will be largely due to the fact
that the farmers who are most d.
rectly and vitality affected be the NOV
ing spirits and the foundation of the
movei1,nt. The banking, mercantile
and ocner interests will be strong
force in cooperative, but the initiative
to be most effective must come from

"Zone rates are lost to sight, censor
ship is relegated to the rear, govern
ment advertising becomes a dead is
sue, and the press agent and popa-
ganda fiends assume the shape almost
of savious of the nation.
Miss Rankin proposes that all
American newspapers should be owned
and issued by the United States.
each town should have only one
ewspaper, edited by an editorial board
and the government should issue the
newspaper free of charge.
"The newspaper should print only
the truth, and it should not contain
any advertisements.
"Thus newspaper advertising of all
kinds would be abolished at one full
swoop.
While such a proposal will be re-
garded quite as seriously as one of
Don Quixote's windmill charges, new
ertheless it is an indication of
thorough understanding of the news
paper situation Miss Rankin will bring
into play when as one of our national
legislators she will be called upon 20
pass upon bills affecting the interest
of newspaper publications"
Anyone with the least common sence
can see the trend of socialistic ideas
in such an insane proposition that goes
without saying will not be taken SER
iously by anyone outside of the circles
of the WObblies and their ilk.

SECRET SERVICE MEN
AFTER B00TLEGGERS
FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES HAVE BEEN
WORKING FOR PAST TWO WEEKS AND MAKE
CATCH OF MEN ALLEGED TO BE SHIP
PING BOOZE INTO WASHINGTON.

For the past two weeks a number of
secret service men have been in and
out of Glasgow working on a case of
conspiracy to violate the Webb-Ken-
yon act prohibiting the shipment of
Intoxicating liquor into dry territory
and the investigation resulted in max
ing an arrest according to information
received this week in Glasgow.
When deputy United States mar
shals, Monday, intercepted two ship
ments of Sunnybrook whiskey, des-
tined for somewhere in the bone-dry
state of Washington, it being pre-
sumed, Spokane, the dream of pro-
fits of E. c. Oliver and George Casey
vanished into thin air like a KIDS bal
loon at a circus, and incidentally these
two gentlemen were thrust into the
county Jail of Mineral county at
Superior, where they languish in that
old famous durance vile.

The combined shipments consisted
of TAB quarts of Sunnybrook. The
larger shipment was composed of 694

Fair Association Hiram
JOhnsOn's Double.

"How are you senator" said port
ly gentleman in the lobby of the Placer

the portly one.
"You are certainly not" retorted Mr..
Ensign.
"My error" said the portly one as
he looked at the rotund face of Mr..
Ensign, obviously and doubtfully.
eff you are not Senator Johnson"
said the portly man," You are most
wonderful DOUBLE" Explanations fol-
lowed and all was we'll.
Harry Ensign, it is said has often
been taken for the virile statesman
who, while governor of the Golden
state, was elected by the largest plur-
ality ever given senatorial candidate
to the United States senate from CAL
ifornia.
"The people of Montana were most
fortunate in securing the services of
Horace Ensign" said a prominent min
ing and business man of Utah, while
visiting in Helena.
"Mr. Ensign piloted the destinies of
the Utah State Fair association for
several years gith great success and
he is just the man you want to bring
out to the people of Montana the
knowledge of the wonderful resources
Of every kind that you have in the
"Treasure State"
"He is a man of versatility and
energy and his personality radiates
in every direction and that the state
fair that will be held in Montana in
September will be a grand success is
a foregone conclusion"
1t is announced from the general
offices of the Fair association that
great interest is being evidenced in

cations, will be one of the most succ.
cessful fairs ever held in the state.

Longest Continuous Downpour
This Season Descends on
Almost the Whole State.
OF MOST BENEFIT TO S10CKMEN
Late Spring Grain, Flax and Corn
Somewhat Benefited; Precipita-
tation at Glasgow Nearly
Half Inch.

The rain that began falling Sunday
morning was not only general over
Montana except in the northwestern
and the extreme eastern portions of
the state, but was also the longest con-
tinuous rain this year. While it came
too late to benefit the majority of the
dry land crops, it was not too late to
benefit late spring grain, flax and corn.
But it means much more to the stock
men than to the farmers. 1t will re-
vive the ranges, fill up dried water
holes and will greatly improve the
livestock situation in the state. The
rain stopped Sunday night and then
began again Monday morning.
Helena is credited with the heaviest
precipitation, "a of an inch falling
to o'clock last night there was "a
here up to o'clock this morning. Up
of an inch at Bozeman, "a at Glas-
SO at Lewistown and .78 at Great

NON-PARTISAN
HEADS IN STATE
Bolsheviki Townley and Cover
nor Frazer Make Speeches
to BOzeman Faithful.
MISS RANKIN MIKES With BUNCH
Many WObblies Present and jeanette
Practically Alligns Herself
in NOn-Partisan League
Ranks.

The American Bolsheviki have en-
tered the state of Montana with the
hopes of rileying the political waters
of the state and after being refused
permission to hold public gatherings
in Idaho and Washington and many
parts of Montana, finally pulled off a
speech fest in Gallatin county.
The following account of the affair
is given by citizen of Glasgow who
attended the doings in person:
In saturnalia of speech making
in beautiful grove northwest of
Bozeman, Boss Townley of the Nom
Partisan league, Doctor Buncombe
Craighead. Congresswoman Jeanette
Rankin, Governor Lynn Frazier of
North Dakota and Leo DAILY of the
Butte wobbly Bulletin and others last
Sunday protested hours upon end that
the leadership and the membership of
the league is loyal to the United
States in the war against the central
powers.
Every single one of the speakers
devoted practically his entire time
answering the charges of disloyalty
that have been made against the
league leadership. Like the Shakes
pearean female, they protested We
hemently and constantly. The whole
program of the Non-P Partisan league
was sidetracked for patriotic speeches.
Even Miss Rankin, who found it
impossible to vote in favor of the
resolution declaring war upon Ger
many, worked herself into a pitch Of
patriotic fevor. Townley developed
into home war winner on his own
account and talked life II four-min-
ute men all rolled into one. Doc
Craighead punctured the atmos-
phere for a space of two hours urg-
ing the people to get in and whip the
Hun. Governor Frazier talked war
and little else. In fact the meeting
was a regular warhoop from start
to finish.
Governor Frazier, Miss Rankin,
DR.. Craighead and Leo DAILY were
hard put to it to keep the crowd in
good humor until the big boss
should arrive. Townley was late and
he did not get to the grounds until
after o'clock. The governor took
two or three shots at the game. He
told innumerable stories and he's a
good story teller. He could make good
in monologue on Keith time. He
spoke an hour the first time he started
and when Miss Rankin and DR.. Craig
head had run down the governor step
ped into the breach once more. Then
Leo Daily spelled him and after which
the governor took long breath and
talked some more. Before the gov
ernor run down in his last heat, the
