Perhaps a League of Nations
is all right, and it no doubt looks
fine in theory. But some day,
perhaps, the European countries
in the league will be telling Un-
Gle Sam where to head in, and
how the government should be
run. and then the League of Ma
tions would not look so interest
ing. The less the United States
has to do with European politics
the better it will be for our peo-
pie. The peace commission was
supposed to assemble to dictate
peace terms for Germany's ac-
ceptance, and this work should
be accomplished as soon as possi-
BILE that our soldiers can be re-
turned to their homes and civil
life. The League of Nations can
then be discussed to any length
desired by the commissioners, so
long as the government is will
ing to pay the salaries, and not
work a hardship on the boys who
went over to fight.

When brilliant sprig of the
law goes to a lady's room in the
hotel, locks the door and turns
out the lights, it is probably done
for the purpose of concealing
his embarrassment w hen h e
charges her S25 for the alleged
advice and comfort he is about
to give her. But we still cannot
understand why an attorney
should crawl under the bed when

After two months hobnobing
with kings and potentates in Eu-
rope, President Wilson will land
in the United States next Tues
day. He is so enamoured of the
life of luxury and display of the
European rulers that he expects
to return just as soon as he gets
Congress off his hands March 4th.

President Wilson has appoint
ed one ex-Rev. George D. Her
ron as Americas representative,
associated with William Allen
White, to discuss peace terms
with the Lenine-Trotzky murder
ers in Russia. 1t moves George
Harvey, in his Weekly, to dig in
to the past history of this Her
ron fellow, and he finds be was
expelled from the Congregational
church for preaching free love.
When he was inocculated with
this free love doctrine, Heron
had a wife, and later his love
went out to the daughter of a
rich widow, and the widow pro-
ceeded to buy Heron from his
wife by paying $50, 900 for quit
claim title. Later he set up a
free love colony in New Jersey
and was run out by an indignant
populace. President Wilson is
certainly soaring in a high moral
atmosphere to make selection of
men for national peace counsel
lors. He has disgraced the coun-
try, and bemeaned his high Of
flee by giving official recognition
to such a creature as Heron.
Heron is an outcast from Amer
lea, having fled to Italy when
the outraged people of New Jer-
sey started after his free love
colony.

When good citizens of a county
are led around by the nose by a
Holbrook banker, who was put

Jacog Mohler. the secretary of Agri-

with the golden wheat crop of his
state. He calculates that if Kansas
would grind her millions of bushels of
wheat into flour and then make one
big baking, that she might invite all
the world to breakfast and serve each
person eight hot biscuits apiece. Ac-
cording to the latest figures. the Sec
retary would have to cut that break
fast to six biscuits. but that is big
enough world breakfast to make Kan
sas swell with pride.
That is one way of figuring Kansas
wheat. The farmers of the Sunflower
State are figuring too. They always
figure in thousands, whether it is bu-
shells, acres or dollars-so many thous-
ands for a new tractor, so many for
more land, and sometimes SO many to

BUICK PRICES DROP
ON POPULAR MODELS
Local Dealers Say Orders Will Be

An interview with Mr.. Harry Ma
gruder Of the Magruder Motor COM
pany, the local Buick distributors,
makes certain that the purchaser OF
a Buick car between now and the end
of the 1919 season is not running any
chance that the price will be subject
to further change during that period.
Il have just received a letter from
the home office" said Mr.. Magruder,
containing the revised price sche-
dule, effective January /, 1919, COW
ering the various Buick models dur-
ing the remainder of the season. -Four
models have been reduced IN price
and the other two remain untouched
"There has been considerable spec

company was going to do about the
prices of their cars, as the close 81
the war left things in such an uncer-
tain condition regarding the price and
quantities of raw material available
that a good many people felt it would
be impossible for the really big manu-
facturers to get their bearings tor

"This prompt action on the partAof
the company shows that they nave

Tho Rutte Bulletin, a staunch sup

The Butte Bulletin, a staunch sup
norter of A. C. Townley, the socialist
bead of the Non-Partisan league
n~raises the Bolsheviki rule in Russia
But recently The Bulletin exclaimed:
"The imperialists are now in the depth
If their cunning schemes to rip the
life out of the glorious socialist re-
nublic of Russia"
The P%lentywood Producers News a
naper owned by the Non-Partisan ca
que, praises the work of the Bolshevl-
XII and praises the red flag OF Russian
socialists, saying: Cali hail the v
luton which is spreading to every
mart of the world!"
The Townley sheet in Butte refers
to the farmers as capitalists if they
dare own their own farms, saying
Capitalism mean the land and natur-
al esources are owned by the and
lords and capitalist rules who work
not, but live by robbery which they
call rent and interest"
Thus in the eyes Of the socialists
and Bolsheviki, it is a crime TOR
farmers, after years of hard work, re-
tire to an easier abode and rent MS
farm to another mar to cultivate.
Hiring men to help run the farm
means the man who owns or manages
the land gets a share of what the
workers produce but does not give
them the entire income from the crops
they grow on his land. He is mus a
robber in the eyes of such soclallsts
as Townley, Lesueur, Debs' hate

the farms, which means the hired men
or tenants are robbed every day of
about four-fifths Of what these work
ers produce, or ever more"
1t must be consoling to the men
who w their farms and who have
put up their SIG each year to support
such newspapers, to know that these
papers and the socialists in control
of the league have actually taught
the workers that it is a crime to own
the land, to accept rent in cash or a
share in the crops. 1t must be a
matter of surprise for the farmers to
learn that it is a crime in Russia for
men to own land on which they live
and that the punishment inflicted on
farmers owning lands, is to lock the
owner in a cellar and flood it with
water.
Doubtless the Butte Bulletin and
The Producers News will praise the
method selected for killing these land
owners as humane-just as humane as
tieing a cat in a bag and with a rock
attached, throwing the creature into
the nearest duck pond.
Some day the farmers who are
thrifty enough to W their OWL

Socialist Non-Partisan platform; the
teachings and aims of the leaders OF
the league, are to stir up just as bit.
