HARMONY THE WATCHWORD.

HARMONY ShOul be Lne WaIcn"oio
of every republican in Montana. There
never was a time in the political his
tory of this state when the republican
rank and file has been SO earnestly
watching those who have assumed OF
who have been given leadership as at
present. Tired of a long and expen-
sive tenure given the democratic par
ty in Montana, the people in the last
election turned to the republican par
tv as a means out of a mess IF ex-
travagance and wasteful administra-
ton which can have but n inter-
probation. 1t is that in the coming
election, if the republican party keeps
the faith, the next governor of Mon
tana will be a republican.
And there must be harmony nov
if this can be brought about. Not
w~ithstanding the evident outcome Of
the coming campaign, this can easily
be frittered away through personal
jealousies on the part of those who
have been given authority at the last
election. Likewise a determining fac
tor can easily be the relations of those
who are accorded high place in repub-
lican affairs and who have no official
place. If these men are to regard
the republican party as only a vehicle
for the purpose of advancing them
selves, regardless of the welfare of
the party, there can be but n re-
suit from this course, and that is dis
s~ension in the republican party.
So, the appeal is made at this time
for harmony. Not harmony through
the other fellow giving way, but
through a voluntary action upon the
part of all, big and little alike, to
the end that first may come the well
fare Of the party. Party first and
personal advantage afterward. The
republican party has too many times
been wrecked upon the personal m
billions of those who have assumed
to have some grievance Of other and
in order to get even with some other
republican have knitted the ticket and
the time is now arrived, in fact has
long since passed, when those who
believe in the principles of the party
are going to take kindly to any fur
ther snlits or fractional uuarrels.

ELLERY RETURNS
FROM OVERSEAS

C. r. Ellery, prominent attorney
of Plentywood, who left this city Ju-
ly 10th for foreign service with the
Y. M. c. A., returned Saturday from
overseas.
Mr.. Ellery sailed from New York
the latter part Of August for Liver
pool and after spending some time in
the service at Liverpool, London and
Southampton, he was transferred to
service with the fighting forces in
France. While Mr.. Ellery was o
nected with the athletic department
of the association, his duties furnish
ed him with an opportunity to spend
about a month with the boys at the
front line and he had every chance to
learn what active fighting in the
world war really was.
This branch of the service undoub-
teddy affords a man a greater oppor-
tunity of travelling and viewing the
situation as it really is than falls to
the doughboy, who gives the larger
part of his time to preparing for the
big noise.
Mr.. Ellery speaks very interestingly
Of his experiences and impressions
gained while abroad and is able to
give one a splendid idea of conditions
as they existed during the time he
was in the service.
Plentywood and Sheridan county
welcome Mr.. Ellery and are pleased
that he is to continue to make his

$1o0 certificates which give the hold
er' the right to trade at the stores,
out no other interest or privilege.
Iownley initiated the Consumers
United Stores scheme in n of the
frequent moments when the league
was badly in need of ready money.
The gouge is so transparent that a
man advocating the scheme would be
hooted from almost any community.
But how completely Townley has fool
ed the simple-minded rank and file
of the league with this scheme is be-.
side the point. The point is that
Iownley owns these stores outright.
They are his to sell to the state of
North Dakota whenever he is ready.
No certificate holder will have any
voice in the matter, nor any share in
the proceeds. They have financed
the enterprise and their share in the
transaction is closed. Now, as tax
payers, they will be called upon to
buy back their w property.
More Easy Money for Townley.
Then Townley has two or three doz-
en- country newspapers and a city
daily and a big weekly which he
could dispose of to the state to ad-
vantage and he has bonding compan-
les and shortage companies and a
score or more of other enterprises all
incorporated by dummy directors in
the name Of the league, but dominated
by himself. His legislature, thanks
to the yeoman service of his canvas
sing board, is now in a position to
sell these all to the state. And, as u.s.
ual, the farmer will go down deeper
into his own pocket to pay the shot.
Townley's Platform.
Just how far this orgy of public
ownership may go no mar can tell.
Townley stands for state or municipal
ownership Of everything under the
sun, including land, agricultural i'm
plements, machinery and livestock. At
least one delegate to the leagues state
convention, which met in Bismarck a
year ago last summer, was pledged to
advocate the inclusion in the league
platform of a plank asking the taking
over Of the farmers land and other
personal property. The fact that the
farmer delegates owning as high as
5000 acres of prime North Dakota
land, whose value doubled during the
war, voted to distribute their holdings
among fellow socialists at prices pre-
vailing prior to the war indicates how
completely Townley has hypnotized
this one-time sober, thinking people.
Townley, as I said in a previous ar
ticle, would eliminate the middleman,
the wholesaler, the jobber and the re-
taller. He would have but two clas-
ses-the producers and the consum-
ers-and he would regulate all inter-
change between these two classes. He
would own and control the railways
and all other public utilities. To the
farmer he holds out the lure of high
err prices for all his produce; to the
laboring man he offers the same farm
er's produce at lower prices, and he
gets away with his double-barreled
argument.
Now that The bars are down in
North Dakota, we shall see how far he
goes with this program.

Eight years ago when we first

HOLIDAY TRADE.

The holiday trade at the stores makes a great deal of extra work. Where these stores have to make from two to three times as many sales as usual, people must wait to be attended to. They must not take too long in deciding what they want At the same time customers naturally like to examine purchases, deliberate over them, and ask information.
 Holiday buying is facilitated where people study newspaper advertising in advance. If they go to the stores without much idea what they are go- ing to buy. it takes a lot of look ing and questioning before they make up their minds. If they have read the advertising carefuily2 they have q clear idea what they want. They should be able to say, Let me see that article you advertised, I think it is about what l want"
 They can be assured that it will be reliable, for merchants do not ad- vertise the things they are doubtful about. Sales made under those con- ditions are quickly arranged, and it becomes possible for a limited force to do more than the usual volume of business.
 People should do their Christmas

CONN NATIONAL BANKS GROWING
 VERY RAPIDLY

The recent growth of the Connec- ttcut National banks is shown by comparative figures issued in Wash tngton. According to these figures, on Aug. 31, 1918, there were deposit accounts in siXty-seven banks to the number of 13S, 1915. Of these 14,- 255 were demand deposit accounts, on which interest Is allowed, 93,899 were demand deposit accounts on which no interest is allowed, 24,683 were time deposit accounts on which interest is allowed, and 14,1T7 time deposit accounts on which no interest is allowed.
 On Sept. 12, 1919, sixty-six Con- necticut national banks showed de- posits to the number of 171,457. Of these, 17,131 were demand deposit accounts on which interest is allowed, 10O,999 demand deposit accounts on which no interest is allowed, 36, 562 time deposit accounts on which inter- est Is allowed, and 16,765 time de- posit accounts on which no interest IS allowed.

 If they find themselves tempted to say the sharp word, they should re- fleet that if they had made their purchases a month ago, they would have secured better attention. De- fleets in store service are due to the failure of the public to anticipate its wants. If the whole town insists in doing the same thing at the same time, some one must necessarily be incommoded.

Prices and Values.

Early in the week there was a de- cIded tendency to improvement in quotations, and not a few issues made very decided gains, among them some of the motor and oil favorites. Later however, these gains were lost and those who had counted upon a sharp and general advance found them selves disappointed. They are not likely to get very much encourage ment so long as present money con- ditions continue.
 Traders have shown special favor for the industrial issues which have varied widely in value within recent weeks, their opinion evidently being that the imitation had been largely eliminated from them and that they were due for price advances On the other hand, earnings of many indus
