THAT SPECIAL ELECTION

During the past month or SO
petitions have been circulated
throughout McCone county, as
well as all over the state of Mon
tana, protesting against the
holding of a special election
this fall on September End, for
the referendum on the proposed
changes in the primary law, and
we are glad to state that the
petitions are being signed up
freely, by nearly all the citizens
of the county.
There may be room for i'm
provement in the present prim-
airy system but we can't see any
use of going to the extra ex-
pense of a special election with
would cost the state in the
neighborhood of 500, 100000.
furthermore the changes which
the political bosses of the state
wish to get through are no i'm
provement whatever, but as the
HarloWton Press says is a step
backwards"
However although we hope
that the special election will be
called off, it is well that every
one sign the petitions and also
those that have not registered /
should get busy at once, so that
in case it is not called off, you
can go to the polls and"vote 'er
down"
If the election is held on Sept.
End, the boxing bill will also be
voted upon in order to become a
aw, but there is no question but
what it also will be turned down. ]

A PRAYER FOR RAIN
By H. A. Frentz

By H. A. Frentz
O Lord, most merciful and just,
From whom all blessings flow,
= You who mark the sparrow's fall
And see each twig or blade that grows,
Temper these hot winds that burn,
They scorch our parching grain,
Hely us in this time of need
And bless us now, with rain.
We've titled our last half acre, Lord,
We've staked our very all
That we might feed the world at large,
A bumper crop this fall.
All mankind in the universe
Depends upon our grain,
We've won the war, now feed the world
So Please, God, send us rain.

A Matter of Principal not
Money

The progressive citizens OF
this county many of whom are
farmers, have been signing peti-
tons during the past two OF
three weeks which have as their
object the postponement of the
referendum voted upon this fall
proposed changes in our prim-
airy nominating system. Of all
the newspapers in this county,
The Press is the only one which
has taken a f1atfooted stand a.
gainst some of the changes
which are advocated in the pro-
posed revision, and we consider
these changes SO vicious that
we mistrust the motives of any
person who persist in having the
referendum vote upon this fall
or any newspaper that in any
wise supports the proposed re-
vision. By this we do not mean
to say that the present Mon
tana direct primary law is per-
feet, for it is not But it is a
milestone along the highway of
progress and the suggested
changes that the political bosses
want submitted to the people
would set the political mach
inery of the state back at least
ten years.

justice to the many hundred of

Percival Landon, the London

NEWS ABOUT JEWS
EVERYWHERE
"ORGIES OF POGROMS IN
POLAND"

A summary of an article in the
London daily Herald by Hen
ry N. Brailsford, the distinguished
British publicist, in which he con-
firms the massacres at Pinsk and
Lemberg has been cabled to the
Zionist Organization of America. In
the quoted article which is headed
"Orgies of Pogroms In Poland
How the Polish Imperialists Cele
brated Their New Freedom" Mr..
Brailsford says that when Russia
lost her Western provinces, there
were many persons simple enough
to rejoice, believing that at least the
Jews stood to gain thereby. The
new master, however, is nationalist
Poland. The Jew batting element in
Russia is very small minority, said
Mr.. Brailsford, but nti-simitism in
Poland runs through every class.
"Pogroms are rather the sign of
daily evil" writes Mr.. Brailsford,
"rather than the evil itself. Where
there is massacre one may be sure
that even when order reigns there
will be daily insults, perpetual in
equality, and steady denial of JUS
tice. Poland has celebrated her
new freedom with orgies of -po-
groms. At Lemberg, over 20 Jews
were massacred; at Pinsk, the kill
ing of IS Jews by troops is official
1y admitted"
Mr.. Brailsford refers also to the
pogroms in wilma.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

ern and Eastern Boundaries of Jew
ish Palestine have already been
fixed. The question that has yet
to be determined is the southern
boundary, the dividing line between
Palestine and Egypt. On the ques-
ton of the southern boundary, the
proximity of Palestine to the Suez
canal, hinges the international sig
nifcance of the future Jewish home
land.
Mr.. .Landon states that the res
ponses received by DR.. Weizmann
and Felix Frankfurter to the plans
formulated for the resettlement Of
Palestine as a Jewish Common
wealth are actually greater than can
be dealt with at the present time.
Remarking that this project is one
in which the whole world is inter-
ested and that it enjoys the almost
unique advantage of being almost
the only one before the Peace Con-
ference which can be developed full
ly without detracting from the pros
perity or possessions Of any other
nations, Mr.. Landon says in his ar
ticle, summary of which has been
cab1ed to the Zionist Organization
of America, that the prosperity of
the Jewish Commonwealth will de-
pend largely upon the actual from
tier for Palestine which the Peace
Conference will determine. The
Zionists are already busy with plans
for repopulation and the establish
ment of a Jewish Palestine. Mr..
Mr.. Landon continues: "Intensive
cultivation lies at the root of the
plan. There will be no difficulty in
obtaining either the men or the
money needed, altho it is true that
the richer Jewish communities will
maintain their present residence.
From the first, the Zionists insisted
as a condition precedent to their
work that the Peace Conference
should award the mandate for Pal
estine to Great Britain, compli-
ment to the British administration
in which the rest of the world is
glad to associate ITSELF.
