ALICE COLEMAN INSISTS
Continued from page
since the people have found ont
they were lies---it will never have
any more influence.
Yours sincerely,
Miss Alice B. Coleman,
Broadus, Montana.

The above article as nearly ap-
| breaches the truth as the average
statement made by Miss Coleman
during her ten OF twelve years
residence in what is now Powder
River county.
She states that her taxes in
Custer county last year amount
ed 10 one hundred thirty three
dollars and eleven cents, S133.1l:
and that through the appointment
OF inefficient officers, this amount
has been increased in Powder
River county. Miss Coleman S
taxes for 1919 amount 70 eighty
four dollars, $500, on the same
property, a reduction Of forty nine
dollars and eleven cents, S49.l1,
as compared with 1918 taxes.
She objects to the school lax as
eNhorbitant while she has earned
a livelihood in the capacity OF
teacher since coming here In
school matters she shows the GEN
ulne Nonpartlsan spirit OF anti
progress III educational matters
as Well as IN other issues.
The reason that she has never
sold a crop from her land is that
she has never taken the trouble
to raise the crop.
Her statement as to deputies iii
the Court House is false as IS ev-
cry other statement contained in
the above article. She states that
as the war Is over one can call
his soul his own. We wish to
state that at no time during the
war has 4 loyal American citizen
been afraid to speak his mind in
public or elsewhere. The only
people who feared to speak plain
~ We're those VINO had nothing
but traitorous and reasonable
statements to make and were
FOR" the enemy.
Miss Coleman came to Mon
tana a Socialist, and it is only a
short Jump from Socialism to the
Nonpartisan belief.
Miss Coleman asks for three
or four good orQanizers--but We
wonder if she really wants them
sent here or IS she spearino for
an appointment by which she can
take down a percentage Of the

Concrete FIume in Hawaii.

Owing to the scarcity of steel in the
Hawaiian islands during She war; sub.
stitutes for steel had to be used as far
as possible. On one of the sugar planta-
tons a concrete tiume was used to
carry water across a gulch. The fiume
was formed as an inverted Siphon. con.
sisting of a rectangular box resting on
concrete columns: 1t is about 6lb
feet wide and nearly 5 feet deep
and is supported about 35 feet above
the bottom Of the gulch. A bell-and-
spigot expansion Joint connects the
horizontal portion of the fiume with
one Of the inclined stacks, the space
between being filed with asphaltic &C.
ment. This joint has operated salts
factorily without any signs of leakage
for a number of months.-Scientilic

WHY NOT

There is some talk OF a petition
being circulated among the peo-
pie between Rroadus and Pinto,
for the purpose Of trying to es-
tablish a mail route up the river.
At the present time the up-river
people do not get their mail for a
period of weeks after it is sent.
The distance from kroadus to
Pinto is only Is miles, yet mail to
the latter city must 50 to Miles
City, thence to Billings Sheridan,
Wyo., Arvada and then TO Pinto.
1t is nearly time that Uncle Sam
Came to the rescue OF these PEG
pie by establishing a through mail
route from here. Now that we
have a new county and bright
prospects for aOod live town
for a county seat, all mail routes
in the county should lead to
Broadus. This should be the dis
tributino point. Direct commun-
iCation would save much time
and expense in business transact
ions. Everybody boost for a mail
route to Pinto and any improve
ment in other routes.
