this state and al members Of the Re-
publican party, as. such, should at all
times lend every assistance to the car
rying out of these pledges. Not in
a single instance should there be a
failure. For the party is on trial and
future success or failure will depend
upon the record which will be made.
Political morality and future poll
tical success alike demand. that this
be done. Every member should divest
himself of the notion that anything
short Of complete fulfillment will be
regarded as a compliance with the de-
mand Of the people. And it will not
be hard to do, provided good intent
and vigilance govern Republican coun-
sells. A gathering together of the
faithful. should be one Of the first
things upon the converting Of the leg
islature, a legislative program should
be agreed upon and this carried
through at the earliest possible mo-
ment. It matters not if the govern
or may disprove. That will be up to
him. It is our plain duty to take the
program, completed, to the executive
desk. Then our pledge will have been
kept and upon the record made, as
said, the people in the next campaign
will again make their decision.
BY long odds and without ques-
ton, the greastest single problem, ia
king into consideration in all it's rami-
fications what it means, is that of a
tendency toward a breaking down of
those sound political policies under
which this state and this nation have
grown to their present greatness. The
platform of the Republican party is
pronounced upon this and it inveighs
heavily against the unlawful or ar
bitrary breaking up of the machinery
of government. Our platform said in
unmistakable terms that Montana
should not be turned over to the 1.
w. w, and to those political soldiers
Of fortune who would ruin it's good
name, under the thinly disguised plea
of protecting" the farming classes
on the one hand and appealing to class
hatred upon the other.
An the vote overwhelmingly shows
that Montana prefers law and order
to chaos. It has taken the Republican
party at its word as expressed in it's
platform of principles. And the Re-
publicans of the state and all good
citizens generally have the confidence
that the party will do as it says it

FOOD ADMINISTRATORS
SERVE VOLUNTARILY

In response to a question asked last
week, the food administration has is
sued a statement that all county food
administrators in Montana are acting
in an entirely voluntary capacity with
out any pay whatever from the gov
eminent.
"The county food administrators are
not ven dollar-a-year men," says the
statement, "they get absolutely no.
thing except the satisfaction of know
ing that they have served their coun-
try in its time of need. They are, in
each instance, men known in their
communities for public spirited actions
and for most loyal support of every
institution that serves the American
flag"
A number of the county food ad-
ministrators have aided the food adj
ministration in Montana actively for
twelve months or more, giving their
time, energy and influence, and often
their money, to aid the work. In a
recent communication to State Food
Administrator Alfred Atkinson, Her
bert Hoover declared that the great
success of food administration has
been in no small part due to the un-
firing loyalty Of the county workers.

will do. Not only in refusing to be-
come in any manne a party to any
suggestion of offering asylum, no
matter how seemingly alluring may
be the offer, to organized bolshevism,
but in the carrying out in absolute
faith, in letter and in spirit, the pied
ges made in the Republican platform,
including those of passing sound rem
edial legislation for the farming inter-
ests, for the further protection Of Ia
Dor and labor's interests and with all
providing such safeguards for all clas-
ses of Montana citizens that under
Montana laws labor and capital and
big and little alike will be absolutely
assured of a square deal.
That's the mission of the Republi-
can party. That is what u platform
promised the people. And we won
upon that platform. So, let us keep
up the faith.
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1918-11-29
KEEP THE FAITH.

In no uncertain terms Montana has
turned to the Republican party and
has placed it's governmental affairs
into the hands of that political organ
ization. Insofar as the legislative
branch of the government is concern
ed the mandate is unquestioned. And
none can read the tendency of polit-
ical thought without arriving at the
conclusion that as soon as time will
permit the entire machinery Of gov
eminent will be given to the Repub-
lican party. Two years from now both
the legislative and the executive will
unquestionably be Republican.
That is, if the coming legislature
will keep the faith. And the record
which this political party has made
in the past precludes any thought 9TH
er than that it will be true to its prom
Use. This, then, becomes the business
of the immediate hour with those who
have been given certificates of cleo
ton while running under the banner
Of Republicanism and who have met
with such an abundant success upon
the platform promise Of the party.
Every Republican member in both
houses should make it a business to
carefully study the platform pledges
of his party and in every single in
stance during the coming session vote
and work for their fulfillment. Those
who have the capacity which indicates
leadership should keep constantly in
view the pledges made the people of

"Brotherly yours,
THE RESIGNATION OF MR..
McADOO.
(Spokesman-Review

(opOkeSman-heVleW.)
William G. McAdoo has underta-
ken and put through more new de-
partures in national finance than any
other secretary of the treasury. Be-
fore we went to war he directed the
organization of the federal reserve
bank system and the farm loan banks.
Then came the war, and Mr.. McAdoo
had to direct the raising of vast sums
that were necessary to pay u own
expenses and to lend money to our
allies. The latter task is by no mean
completed; indeed, Mr.. McAdoo may
be said to be leaving the cabinet in
the midst of the working out of the
war finance problem. The war like
wise gave him added responsibility in
the form of dictatorship of the rail-
way systems of the country.
Through all the multiplying diff
culties of his position Mr.. McAdoo
has shown ability which would have
distinguished him in any cabinet, and
which was all the more noticeable in
a group not exactly distinguished for
ability. By profession the secretary
of the treasury is a lawyer, but he
has shown great Jskill and under
standing in his regulation of intricate
financial affairs; and when the su-
pervision of railways was given him
he showed that he knew %transporta-
ton as we'll as finance.
His reasons for resigning will ma
turally become the subject of inter-
ested and intense speculation. There
are so many strange attendant circum-
stances. First, the suddenness and un-
expectedness of the resignation; next,
the pressing nature of the problems
which the treasury department and
the railroad administration are on
fronted; next, the personal relation
ship of the president and Mr.. Nc
Adoo; finally, the certainty that there
is among the presidents friends and
political associates a sharp diversity
of opinion as to the merits of the
presidential trip to Europe.
Taking these and various minor cir
cumstances into consideration, and
thinking them over at length in their
relation one to another, one finds it
difficult to accept at face value Mr..
McAdoo's statement that he is resign
ing because he can not support a
family on a salary of $4,000 a year.
There is so much big work to be done,
work which Mr.. McAdoo must be deep
ly concerned about. that he could not
conceivably leave it now unless some
vital matter of conscience or policy
Some will see in the resignation the
forced him to.
beginning of a split between the pres
ident and his advisers on the issue of
the triumphal tour of Europe. Others
will discern a connection with the
presidential election that is to come
in 1920. In any event the country
will be sorry to lose from its serv-
ice a man who alone Of all the men,

CONFIDENCE

A perfect illustration of the av-
erage Frenchman's opinion of the
American soldier is a very human doc
ument written in English and pasted
on a wall heal the road at the en-
trance to a small French village
through which thousands of American
soldiers were to pass:
"To Our American Friends:
"The inhabitants who have so brave
ly suffered since the beginning of the
war have been obliged by the order
of the general-in-chief to evacuate
their homes for a few weeks on ac-
count of coming operations.
"They went off s~orrowfully, only
being permitted to carry away a small
package each, and were obliged to
leave in their cherished homes the
belongings that they had acquired by
years of labor.
"Officers and soldiers of the Unit
ed States: / have told my people that
l know your minds, and can rely
quite confidently on your generosity
and friendship.
l confide all the property of my
dear refugees to the safe keeping of
the Stars and Stripes. Down with
the Boche!
"Brotherly yours,
az MIRIAM, Prefect."
1t is said in the Stars and Stripes,
the official paper of the American
Expeditionary Forces, that the on
fidence of these people vas scrupu-
lousy respected, and the village was
left intact by the many hundreds of
doughboys who have passed through
it.

SERVICE PRICE MUST
 MEET ITS COST.
City and State Authorities Will Fol low President Wilson's Request
 For Relief to Utilities.

Tt is essential that these utilities should be maintained at their maxi mum efficiency and that everything reasonably possible should be done with that end in view. l hope that state and local authorities, where they have not already done so, will, when the facts are properly laid before them, respond promptly to the neces- sities of the situation"
 President Wilson. The various public Untility Com panies serving the cities of Arkansas are placing themselves in the hands of the city councils and the public for some temporary relief. The constant ly increasing costs of labor, fuel money and materials and every item that enters into the furnishing of service, the price of which will not cover the cost.
 The State, through the city coun- cils, exercises it's power to regulate rates and control the quantity and quality of service.
 Now, owing to the abnormal condi- tions brought about by the war, these companies find themselves in com mon with these throughout the United States in a critical position. The burden of added costs with no oppor tunity to increase rates in proportion has brought many to the verge of in- solvency and will force an impair ment of service that will be a positive loss to the communities served.
 The men entrusted with the man. agcment of these companies feel that it is a matter that concerns all the people of the state of Arkansas, as well as the councils charged with the power of their supervision and regu- lation. They believe that the people, when full informed of the exact facts, are anxious that justice be done.
 Accordingly while these matters are pending before the city councils which will make in every case a thor ough investigation, it is proposed to advise the people of the situation that they may judge of the merits of these requests.

KAISER OPENLY DENOUNCED
 IN THE GERMAN REICHSTAG

Amsterdam, Oct. 28.- Exciting scenes occurred in the German Reich stag during the proceedings of the house on Friday and Saturday.
 The Polish deputy, Korgantz, hotly attacked the Polish policy of the gov ernment He declared that in Chem nitz alone the War Raw Materials Department sold 8,000,000 marks worth of carpets and other goods ta- ken from Poland Seven hundred thousand Polish people were carried off to Germany, where they led the life of slaves, while Brigadier Gener- al Pilsurski (of the Polish Legion), whom the Polish nation regarded nlghly, was still held in the fortress at Magdeburg, despite all appeals. The deputy concluded:
 "We are not blaming the German people for these prosecutions, but German militarism. We extend the hand of reconciliation to the German people for the common veal"
 The independent Socialist, Dr. Cohn, who declared that the war was lost after the first battle of the Marne, said that General Ludendorff, at the end of September, proposed the formation of a government em- powered to negotiate an armistlce with President Wilson, and it was inn possible to guarantee the mainten- ance of the war much longer
 'The question cannot longer be evaded," said Dr. Cohn, war with ths Hohenzollerns or peace without the Hohenzollerns. World revolution will follow on world imperialism and world militarism, and we will over come them. We extend our hand to our friends beyond the frontier in this struggle"
 The speech was received with such commotion, cries of "Shame!" and applause, that the vice president threatened to have the chamber cleared.
 Another Socialist, Otto Ruehle, was called to order for declaring that the emperor must abdicate. He retorted; "A call to order won't save him from the criminal court"
 The House debated the bill amend ing the constitution, which was pass ed Saturday. Several speakers dis played anxiety to show that the re- forms were not dictated by the enc nv. but had been advocated since the i spring of 1917.
 The Conservative, Herr von Graete' complained that the proposed reforms would destroy all the crown influence and declared that the Conservative party would refuse to cooperate m such a break with the past.
 State Secretary Grober and War Minister Major General Scheuche, both declared that there was nothing in the reforms which could endanger the firm structure of the army or the personal relationship between the Prussian king and the officers.
