TRAVELETTE
BY NIKSAH.
ELsINORE.

Ekinore, reputed home of the mel
ancholy Hamlet, is little Danish sea
port, much frequcnted by ships. sea
gulls and summer visitors. The last
named class are continually besieged by
guides eager to point out the scenes at
which the real Hamlet drama took place
The guides seem calmly unaware OF
the flaws in their smoothly worded dis
course. Possibly they rise above the pro-
sale facts presented by historians They
lead you to mound of stones and a
tablet. and assure YOU that here lies
Hamlet. the Dane. Yet they we'll know
that spot was selected for Hamlet S
grave only century ago, with special
attention paid to a convenient location
Before then, Hamlet was supposed to
lie in an out of -thewa place on private
property.
Kronberg castle, in Elsinore. is said
to be the real Hamlet castle, the histo-
rians. adopting their usual combative at
titude. have proved this impossible
Nevertheless. the exact battlement OF
the castle where the ghost of Hamlet's
father walked is pointed out. The scene
of Ophelia's fate is also cataloged, with
only the grape vine swing missing.
Shakespeare is believed to have Wis
tied Elsinore shortly before writing his
most famous tragedy. The character OF
Hamlet he took from history. but au-
thorities say that the combination OF
Hamlet and Elsinore was Shakespeare s
own idea. The real Hamlet. they assert
pondered on the ethics of revenge in a
different part of Denmark 800 years be-
fore Kronberg castle WAS built.
Nobody knows where Hamlet really
lived and died. Elsinore fits convenient
ly the requirements of the Hamlet set
ting. Guides profit by the exhibits. Elsi-
more hotels and shops profit. and the
visitor receives great deal of informa-
tion which he can believe if he likes.
The present arrangement is so satisfac-
tory that it seems unlikely that the
scenes for Hamlet will ever be shifted,
unless some enterprising historian can
connect the melancholy Dane with a
castle and set of exhibits superior to
those now in use.

WHY HESITATE?

The automobile is coming back to all of it's
former glory in the commercial and recreation
world. The dealer is again up on his toes. The
buyer is showing his old-time interest. and then
some. The auto shows all over America are
proving that the people of the United States are
going to burn lot of gasoline in spite OF Zig
income taxes and other little taxes.
Great Falls has just closed the doors upon
successful automobile show. Outside of the
gratifying attendance and interest the thing to
be noted is that this city must provide place
for holding such events. Whether or not this
need can be linked with the auditorium problem
we do not know, but we are sure that Great
Falls must realize that it is no longer big vii
lage. A real city must now have place for
big exhibitions.
This is one of the items of reconstruction that
is now before u.s. By the way, when is this city
going to begin the real work of reconstruction? :?
Are we going to sit around half of the present
season? Hesitation never put much progress
into town. Nerve and action are great city
builders.
Great Falls needs many buildings of many
kinds When shall we hear the noise Of the
hammer and the saw?

HEARING FROM HOME

Senator Lodge of Massachusetts has modified
his position somewhat as to the league of ma
tions. He has concluded that he could stand for
it with some changes. Senator Reed of Missouri
has heard from home. Fifty members of the
legislature of his state have asked him to re-
sign and to appeal to the people Of his common
wealth for vindication if he has got the nerve.
There will be others. 1t will not be surprising
of Sister Idaho, if he continues to berate his gov
ernment while it is still at war. AS matter of
fact there ought not be any difference before
the law between a United States senator who
goes upon platform to abuse the president and
harass his government in time of war and an
l. W. w. soapbox orator who does the same
thing. If we mistake not the American people
are beginning to look at it that way.
Did you ever stop to think to what incon-
sistent position Senators Lodge and Borah and
Sherman are plunging the republican party, on
the ground that league Of nations would get us
into foreign alliances and a mxup in the affairs
of other people that would be disagreeable?
How many years is it since they were preaching
that great brotherly love which should impel us
at all cost, and regardless of all foreign entange
ments, to rescue Cuba and to uplift the half
civilized people of islands on the other side of
the Pacific ocean? Indeed it was urged in those
days that the liberty which had been won in
America should be made to reach around the
world.
No one will object to candid and honest crti-
cism of what should or should not go into
compact of nations to avoid war, but the United
States senator who thinks that the people of
this country are opposed to any league of ma
tions that may reasonably be expected to pre-
vent another world struggle like the one Just
finished needs to spend some time interviewing
the fathers and mothers of America who would
furnish the sons to do the fighting.

the use of more machinery necessary.
All in all, it was q mighty expensive and
difficult crop to plant, and the little old
500 which the government had prom
ised the farmer did not look SO large
when he reflected that he might have
gotten $3 or more in an open market.
and that corn crop would have paid
better anyway. Hence, Kansas planted
wheat with a deep and somewhat grouchy
consciousness of merit.
Virtue was never more gloricusly re-
warded in best seller or fairy tale.
The war--you may have heard this be-
be abundant in this country. 1t became
clear to all and sundry that but for the
fact that the government had promised to
pay $40 for that 1918 crop, it might
sell for good deal less than that. 1t
also became apparent that labor, instead
of being scarce, would be more than
abundant In word, it became quite
clear that the Kansas farmer, who
thought he was raising wheat at a per-
sonal sacrifice for the good of the ma
tion, found that he was raising it at a
fat profit. and possibly at the expense of
the nation.
And even nature has been kind to the
Kansas patriots. That vast crop, filling
every available acre OF the Kansas wheat
belt, is thriving almost incredibly. If
the Kansas farmer makes a crop that is
20 per cent perfect he counts himself
fortunate. This crop. to date. promises
to be 100 per cent perfect. Unless some
unforeseen and highly improbable disas-
ter occurs. that wheat crop will total not
less than 200, 100000 bushels, thus shat
tering all previous Kansas records, and
bringing into that state an amount of
money, guaranteed by the government.
which you can figure for yourself
1t does not follow as a certainty that
the government is going to lose on this
wheat which it is pledged to buy at s. 20
There are many who think it will not.
1t is true that if the 1919 crop were sold
in an uncontrolled market the farmer
would probably get good deal less than
this guaranteed price for it. But there
is a reason to believe that the world food
situation, being what it is. the govern
ment can take this wheat at 500 and
get its money back. For the 1918 crop is
about gone. and the greater part of the
world is still short of foodstuffs.

THE WORLD is TIRED.

1t has recently been said by somebody some
where that the soldier has not been properly de-
mobilized until he has been demobized into a
job. That's correct. This paramount duty rests
jointly upon the nation, upon the state, upon the
community and upon the individual. Congress,
derelict in the performance of its duty, has
dumped the task. That makes the burden heav-
ier down the line.
We, however, started to say something else.
After the above mentioned task has been per-
formed to the best of our ability the sooner we
can get away from the details of the great war,
and the faster we can get our minds centered
upon the details of peace, the better it will be-.
This old world is very tired. Besides the task of
restoring business there is need of recreation.
Therefore Montana baseball league is good
thing to push along. The "flu" has killed lot
of people, 1t has injured the general health Of a
lot more. People need to get out Of their offices
and out of their homes when the warm days
come.
There has been sorrow and misfortune and
disappointment in every community. The world
must laugh again if any new prosperity that is
to be gained is to be worth the while.
In decently conducted baseball there is good
recreation. A Montana league is the proper thing
if we are to have the national game in our home
cities.

Helena has not been long on harmony. There
are said to be successful business men in that
city who do not hold other leading citizens in
high esteem. Perhaps we will not be accused OF
being too free with advice if we urge the capable
men of Helena to forget their differences and
to all pull upon the same rope when it comes
to commercial and civic uplift.
Besides, if the inhabitants Of the capital city
are willing to make the investment in parks and
bouevards and trees its whole area sloping from
a picturesque mountain to natural valley be-
low is capable of becoming one of the really
beautiful cities of the west.

THE PRIMARY ELECTION

Great Falls city holds primary election to-
day. The candidates are to be chosen who Will
contest for placesiin the city government
How many times during the last few months
we have heard citizens emphasize the import
ance of good city government as we get under
way after the delays of the war time period!
What lot of talk We have heard about machine
politics! What an endless chain Of comment
there has been about the need of economy in the
administration of municipal affairs!
This morning and thru today test will be
made, and We shall see how much our people
are really interested in who may be elected to
the city offices. The man who will not put on
his hat and walk to the polls has no business to
kick about how his money is expended after the
primary and after the election.
municipal election is not political joke
The choice of candidates is not vaudeville
stunt, altho there are indications that it is con-
sidered so in certain localities. The funny part
goes into total eclipse Of seriousness when the
wrong men are elected and when perhaps thou
sands Of dollars are being foolishly expended, or
when bad policies are being carried out in de-
fiance of public opinion.
If there is any virtue in these remarks look
carefully thru the men who are asking public
favor at this primary. Ask yourself the ques-
ton: "Who among them would you choose to
conduct piece of business for yourself"
If you ask such questions and answer them
candidly and carefully you cannot go far wrong
Anyway, give this important matter attention
early today.

Helena has a new commercial club. A new
secretary has been engaged and the announce

going to be done. The Tribune hastens to con-

over here what an efficient commercial club can
do. We have had one for several years. Helena
will get big reward if it viii raise the required
money, get harmony into the organization and
stand squarely behind the secretary. We are
not fully informed, but we rave been told that

WHAT IS NOW PROHIBITED

There is surely one satisfaction coming out OF
the decision of Governor Stewart to place an
executive veto in the pathway Of senate bill 81.
The good people of Montana finally know where
they are at The manufacture of one-half per
cent beer will not be permitted in the state. Our
statutes are now bone-dry so far as the sale OF
any beverage whatsoever containing alcohol is
concerned. In other words, anything sold which
is suitable for beverage must not contain alco-
hol For complete understanding of the pres
ent situation, note must be taken of statute
passed by the recent legislature and which is
now law and which enables the druggist to
sell alcohol for several purposes as well as GER
tain prescriptions containing alcohol. This
measure was known upon the calendar as sub
stitute for senate bill No. 87 1t was entitled
"An act to regulate the importation, manufac-
ture purchase and sale of alcohol and medicinal,
pharmaceutical, scientific, mechanical, culinary,
flavoring and toilet preparations containing al
cohol' The statute is short We quote all
three sections:
Section 1-That the Importation manu-
facture, purchase and sale Of alcohol for
scientific, mechanical and manufacturing
purposes, and also such preparations as
flavoring extracts essences, tinctures, per-
fumes, toilet articles pharmaceutical and
medicinal preparations and remedies con-
tanning drugs or medicines, which do not
contain more alcohol than is necessary for
the proper manufacture, preparation and
preservation thereof, are hereby authorized
and permitted, provided, any such prepara-
tion is not imported, manufactured sold as
or suitable for use as beverage
Section 2. All acts and parts Of acts in
conflict herewith are hereby repealed, pro-
vided, however, that nothing herein con-
tanned shall be taken or construed as repeal
ing chapter 134 of the session laws of 1915,
or any provision thereof.
Section g. This act shall be in full force
and effect from and after it's passage and
approval.
If our understanding is correct the druggist
gets out Of the situation in very acceptable
shape to himself. He is given the privilege of
selling the preparations and merchandise named
in law that has just been enacted, and the pro-
visions of previous statutes known as pure drug
laws have not been repealed
Now, then, it goes without saying that there
are many citizens who are thoroly and absolutely
dissatisfied with the prohibition law of the
state. There are many more who feel that Mon
tana has been emancipated. They are just as
sure that a wonderful victory has ben worked
out along right lines. Now for experience.
Whatever differing opinions may exist it is
clearly the duty of every person to throw his
influence upon the side Of having the laws put
results will be emphasized and bad provisions Of
the law, if there be any, will be the clearly
apparent.
