A JOB FOR THE GOVERNOR.

The man TO watch at Helena
next week is The trickster poll
tician to whom the welfare OF
Montana is entirely subordinate
to his desire for votes from The
disloyal, disorderly, unsafe and
dangerous elements in this state.
Governor Stewart has called
for a law to define seditious,
reasonable and disloyal utter
ances, and an act for The punish
ment thereof.
That looks to be easy. il
would be easy, il all the people
were of one mind for the prOtec-
ton of their lives, liberties and
property. There is unfortunately,
in Montana, class Interested in
confiscating the property Of
others, one that has been inter-
ested in conducting a war within
our own borders while the nation
is beset with the enemy outside.
These people have voting
strength which they use for
Matchmaking purposes in political
campaigns to compel trucking,
dishonest politicians to do their
bidding. Our Legislators must be
on guard when the hour arrives
to consider a bill to suppress dis
loyalty and sedition. There is
likely to be protest against any
interference with the right of
anybody to say what he pleases.
Under the = camonflagc of The
right Of free speech, the foul
hand Of treator will seek to throt-
tie such legislation, as the gov
ernor proposes. Do we not recall
the time and care with which the
wise men Of congress framed the
espionage act, and have we not
lately seen il emascnlatcd and
rendered useless by court inter-
pretation?
The governor Of Montana is
charged with the responsibility
Of preserving law and order in
this state. We know of no better
way for him to maintain his own
record in this respect than by
taking personal charge of this
very important matter. He must
see that the bill is so framed that
the cunning brains Of hired attor-
neys and the INSCRIPTIONS politi-
clans together will not insert jok-
ers so that holes may be punched
in it by court decision later.
Having done that the governor
must see that the hill is then
passed in its approved form.

the governments delay in bring
ing to use its great water power
resources in Montana is an indica-
ton. we may be assured that the
railroads, so far as the interests of
our people are concerned. may
far better remain under private
ownership.
Onr situation is quite unlike that
Of the old settled communities of
the east. Our prosperity depends
wholly upon future development
and we may we'll be pardoncd If
we look at this question Of gov
crnmcnt ownership from the
Montana viewpoint rather than
that Of any other. All that we
may do is to sit back and watch
the present experiment. rcscrv-
ing our Judgment, which must be
fixed solely upon results.

Every kitchen soldier in Missoula
will report advances. casualties and de-
feats to city general staff at regular
intervals. The executive committee of
the chamber of commerce yesterday
ordered special food cards for the use
of Hoover's volunteers. These cards
will be distributed to Missoula house,
wives through the Women's Council OF
Defense. A committee of the council
will receive the reports.
On the cards will be spaces for COM
plete information concerning Missoulas

German kaiser's chief ally. Gains in
the conservation of fats, sugar. wheat
and meats will be carefully recorded in

Laugh at Broadway.

Montana soldiers have wounded the
feelings Of Dear Old Broadway. ac-
cordine to reports from New York,
New Workers. who have twisted the
Venetians' famous boast to read "See

soldiers to be flabbergasted by metro-
politan splendors. They were fooled.
Pretty punk! Youghta see Port

"Skyscrapers? Say. I've lived in tho

Those comments are typical Of the
fetorts from western Sammees to the

soldiers like the hospitality of the east,
but they can't see Broadway. It isn't
in 1t. they say. with the bright streets
Of the bright big west.
Two men from Camp Dix who were
recently entertained by Long Island
people confided to them that they
liked the automatic restaurants and the
Fifth avenue bus better than anything
else in the city. and that Broadway
didn't come up to Main street back in
Idaho.

NOT SETTLED YET.

Director General McAdoO is
soon TO have a problem of con-
siderable moment. Nearly 1900
600 railroad employees are to de-
mand an increase of wages
amounting to- 40 per cent, or
$500, 100000, in all. We presume
that they will get part of it, at
least, and perhaps all, and that, as
usual, the people will settle the
bill. in some form. The stock
holders of the roads will not
worry, because they have been
assured by the government Of
dividends on the scale prevailing
for period Of three years before
the roads were taken over. So far
as authority goes, the govern
ment is quite as much in control
of the roads as it would be if it
actually owned them. On the
other hand, it may not be fair
to call this a test of government
ownership, because during the
war, the management of the roads
will be hardly of the business or
der that would prevail in times of
peace. The change seemed neces-
sary in order to concentrate
everything to war work. The
public has suffered, and will con-
tinue to suffer, inconvenience
that would mol be tolerated cX-
cept in This crisis.
The only test of the value Of
government ownership lies in its
extension of benefits to the
people. If it is found Impossible
under The management of the
government to give the service
that the great and growing bust
ness of the country demands. then
government ownership will be
abandoned. We do not think that
any theorist will be permitted to I
block progress in that way.
We need hardly point to the
multitude OF ways in which the |
railroads traversing Montana aid |
in the development of the re-
sources of this state. Only a few |
days since, the Northern Pacific |
railroad sent group of officials |
TO the Flathead valley to make a
study of the resources of that |
wonderful spot, to make them |
known later to the world through |
its publicity bureau. That, of |
course, is sound business for the |
railroads because as the country |
develops traffic increases. We |
may we'll doubt, however. i'll
under government ownership, !
we would find the bureaucrats at
Washington SO energetic or inter-
csted in bringing new settlers to
Montana or in developing or ad-

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

The case Of Bingham, who took
bichloridc Of mercury Sunday
and is at the st. patrck'S hospital,
offers a wide field for the i'm
lagination.
Several days, possibly a week
may clapsc in cases Of this sort,
before the mercury will act in the
way that will even cause pain. A
kidney test in the case shows that
the poison is well into Bingham's
System, because he took an cx-
traordinary dose, but ordinarily
until the last stages when the kid
ncys suddenly refuse to function,
there would appear no outward
indication Of the death that is
preparing to take him. Indeed,
the doctors might not have known
that he had taken the poison or
was even i'll, if he had not told
them. The chance of recovery is
SO remote, as TO be dismissed.
The torture, we should say,
would be mental, providing, Of
course, that rcmorsc followed the
taking Of The poison. A fit Of
desperate depression might lead
one impuIsivrly to take mercury
and to learn later that the world
was still cheerful and lvable.
Then might come consuming
desire to take another hand in
the great game of life. Think
what terrible mental anguish
would follow to one in seemingly
good health, with the knowledge
that in five days and no later, he
would be checking out his bag
gage for an unseen port! Think
of the things for which one might
want to live a little longer on the
chance that mistakes might be
reclified and The soul prepared
for a most serious undertaking.
These thoughts would differ with
the individual, naturally. Perhaps
Bingham is entirely content to
travel out of the world by the
present route. We do not know
that, but we can easily understand
that a vast majority of people
who took this poison by design
and under any circumstances
would regret il at some hour dur
ing the interval before the arrival
of the reckoning hand.
To get back to The beginning;
suppose that You had taken a
fatal dose of mercury and had
five days to live during which YOU
would retain all of your faculties
and strength. How would you
employ your time in that interval
Please tell us.
