LIVINGSTON FIGHTS TO
PAY HIGH WATER RATES
Especial to The Bulletin. J

Livingston, July IA situation
said to be. without precedent in mu-
nicipal history has arisen here
through the application of the Moni-
dah Trust company, which owns the
Livingston water works. asking the
public service commission for permis-
sion to reduce its charges for water
service 20 per cent. The unusual
feature of the situation is that the
city, through its own municipality
owned water system, competitors Of
the Monidah company, has entered
a protest against the reduction in
rates.

city in the northwest with two water

charged for publ cutility.
The Monidah Trust company is

creditable part in the fight for Irish

Judge Lynch states that he already
has received communications from
patriotic Irishmen in this and neigh
| boring states seeking information as
| to the visit of President De Valera
and declares that the occasion of the
| famous visitors stay in Butte will be
"a red letter day for the friends OF

SENATE REFUSES TO ADOPT MEMORIAL ON
 RETURNING SOLDIERS
Maricopa Republicans Fail to Get Through Slap at

(Ry Review I.eased wirel

PHOENIX, ATiz., Feb. 26-The state senate today refused to indorse a joint memorial introduced by Green and supported by Wilkinson, askins the president and the secretary of war to use no men in policing Europe except volunteers.
 The memorial first requested the re- turn of soldiers to their homes as speedily as possible and concluded with suggestion that if the European allies require, beyond food and fin anciaI assistance, the help of Amer ican troops in policing their continent, no men be employed for that duty but volunteers.
 Would not the adoption of a resolu- tion along these lines tend to embar- rass the administration? g. was Presi- dent Johns query.
 There is no intention in the me morial to take a slap at the president, replied Green.
 Ciaridge remarked that he did not feel like offering advice to the ad- ministratiOn which he felt was in a better position than he to judge what was necessary in Europe. Wilkinson then came to Greens assistance.
 The secretary of war has said that he would bring the boys home from Europe as fast as they could be re, assimilated in the industrial life of our country" said Wilkinson. but while that may be all right from cur standpoint it does not appeal to the soldiers over there. They were draft ed and volunteered to fight, not to do police duty. When Secretary Baker says their return will be regulated by industrial conditions here, I take it that he is not bringing them back as fast as possible"
 With this explanation the memorial went to vote and was beaten Dy I3 to 6.
