FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DULL.

New York. March 27.-The most sig nificant feature of the oay on the stock exchange, aside from the prominence of a few specialties, was the steady diminution of dealings. the total being the smallest of any full session in sev- eral weeks.
 Oil. motor and distilling shares led the stronger issues as gross gains of two to five points, and shipping. to- baCco, leather and paper shares regis tered extreme advances of one to three points.
 The strength of metals would have occasioned surprise, in view of the re duced dividend of Inspiration Copper, but for the fact that in the metal trade an extension of the recent inquiry for the refined product was reported
 Steels and equipments derived their moderate strength from an eucourag- ing statement issued by Judge Gary although reports from other trade sources were not of the same hopeful tenor.
 Easier rates for call money and ad- vices from Paris reporting progress by the peace conference stimulated re- newed activity by pools in recent speculative favorites. such as Mexican Petroleum Texas Company General Motors, Industrial Alcohol, Sinclair Oil and American Sugar.
 Rails were again a source of disap- pointment, failing to throw off their recent apathy except for a moderate inquiry for Union Pacific and several otehr high grade issues in the final hour. Sales amounted to 6j0,000 shares.
 Trading in bonds embraced more than tho usual number of issues, but f, Liberty bonds alone displaying firm ness. Several of the railway converti- ble issues weakened. Total sales, par value. aggregated S12,S75,0O0.

PERSONAL INTEGRITY VS..
RESPONSIBILITY.

American banking methods are the
most progressive and accommodating
in the world consistent with good bus
mess principles.
One of the first points of safe bank
ing is to distribute loans rather than
concentrating them in a few hands.
Honesty, integrity and pride in con-
Quoting a safe banking house free
from political and fractional domina-
ton by outside influences are the
guiding factors of private banking in
America.
Facts and figures must govern
banking, for the protection of every
depositor. Political banking as ad-
vocated by the Nonpartisan league
and similar socialistic organizations.
does away with the personal element
of integrity in banking, it's most es-
sential feature, and substitutes polit-
ical responsibility which seeks more
to please the favored few than to pro-
tect the interests of the many.
The recent investigation of the lit
tie Scandinavian bank Of Fargo, N.
D., which disclosed liabilities of ST.
soc, 900 with $75O,OOO owed by the
Nonpartisan league activities alone, is
an excellent illustration of political
domination in banking. The Nonpar-
tisan league the controlling power in
North Dakota, advocates state owned
POLITICALLY operated) industries, in
Guiding banks.

MENACE TO PROHIBITION.

The admission that the w. c. 7. U.
organization frankly is out in the open
to include tobacco in the ban on al
coholism is not going to do the cause
of prohibition any good. One of the
elements of the success Of the cam
paign against intoxicants was the as
surance that nothing like a puritanical
crusade was in contemplation-that
there was no intention of placing the
nation in a moral strait-jacket. AS a
matter Of plain fact, the prohibition
movement got large impetus in the
understanding that it was on it's own
merits and was not merely the begin
ming of a general assault upon what it's
opponents set up as personal rights.
One of the first and most effective
weapons seized by the foes of prohi-
bition was this fear of a general in
vasion of personal liberty, says the
Pioneer Press. "Your tobacco will
go next!" was their rallying cry. The
newspapers, especially " 4 tLC SooC,
which fought prohibition and still fight
it, have played upon every shade and
phase of this apprehension. To an
extent their efforts have been NULL
fled by the assurance from national
prohibition authority that nothing was
further from its thought than taking
up against tobacco the war which end
ed with the triumph of prohibition.
The challenge from the w. C. T. U.
will arm anew all Of the anti-prohibi-
ton forces. Not only will it be an
nounced by them as the exhibition of
bad faith they predicted, but they will
call to the colors of the liquor army
all of those tobacco-users who agreed
to the prohibition lid upon the under
standing, tacit or expressed, that the
crusade would end right there.
Moreover, the time is particularly
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1919-11-28
inauspicious for the appearance o,

inauspicious for the appearance Of
this attack upon tobacco. There are
those who believe the pendulum of
prohibition opinion has swung to it's
utmost limit and tends to swing back
that there is natural reaction from a
decision so drastic. If this is true,
the backward swing will be accelerat-
ed by the launching Of a crusade
against tobacco. The argument of
an infringement upon personal liber-
ties is the one weapon in the hands of
the enemies of prohibition. 1t is Civ
en- new cutting power, point and
weight by the movement to cut out the
pipe, cigar and cigarette. The "1-told-
you-so" crowd will get the floor and
make it's voice heard. The new play
is directly into its hands.

Complimentary Party Held
On Tuesday at AlsOp's.


One of the prettiest society events
given in Glasgow for some time was a
card party and luncheon given Tues
day, with Mrs. l. L. Brooks of Gull
bertson, Mrs. Ezra Hill and and Mrs.
j. L. Slattery as hostesses. The affair
took place at Alsop's and was compli-
mentary to Mrs. G. T. Plant and Mrs.
Harvey Booth, both of whom expect
to leave soon to spend the winter in
California. AS a token of their love
and esteem the hostesses presented
the guests of honor with beautiful
camisoles.
The spacious room was artistically
decorated with streamers, the lights
were softly subdued, and in the center
was placed a table upon which was a
large basket of yellow chysanthemums
and ferns. Twelve tables of bridge
were played, at which Mrs. C. R. St.
Clair scored highest and received a
beautiful set of Madeira napkins, and
to Mrs. B. A. Mcfarland, who was Sec
ond. a cunning sewing case was given.
A well-appointed luncheon prepared
by Mrs. Alsop followed. The table
decorations were huge yellow chrysan-
themums, and the delicious menu con-
sisted of chicken salad, bread and but
ter sandwiches, olives, ice cream, cake
and coffee.
Over fifty guests We're present, and
the gracious hostesses were very sue
cessful in making the afternoon a
pleasant one.

Sophomore-Freshman Party.

The sophomores of the Glasgow
high school entertained the freshmen
at an initiation party last Friday
night, November Dist. The days pre-
ceding the party were filled with fear
and expectations on the part of the
Freshies. But in spite Of the fact
that they were a little worried about
the party, they turned out in goodly
numbers to "take their medicine"
The first part of the initiation con-
sisted of "riding the goat" Ehe
freshmen thought the goat rather wild,
because he tore around the building
at an awful speed and then very calm
ly baked them off. They were then
hurried upstairs to hear the interpre-'
ter of hades impersonated by Dorothy
Hagen. She told them how very I'M
wise and inexperienced they were and
also of the horrors of hades which they
were soon to encounter.
The freshmen were taken to the en-
trance Of hades where they were CIV
zen an exceedingly unpleasant aero
plane ride which supposedly took them
to the River Styx. Here Charon con-
Quoted them upon a violent boat ride
after which they were branded for
hades.
They next encountered Cerberus, the
three-headed dog of the underworld,
who parked loudly and even bit at
some of them. After giving this dog
a password, they we're allowed to go
into hades and meet King Pluto. 1t
seemed very strange to the unwise
freshmen for when they shook his
hand it fell off. They were then es-
corted to m corner of the dark in
terror of the underworld, where they
were given a shovel and told to re-
plenish the fires of hades. They set
to work, but since the coal was tied
down, it was pretty hard work even
for such industrious little Freshies. es-
pecially when three furies stood lash
ing them with whips, when they paus-
ed. After a few minutes of this siren
uous work they were conducted to an
other of torture. Here they
were compelled to take off their shoes
and walk on burning hot sands.
From here their guide took them to
receive a little science from a departed
magician, who had as his silent help
er a little electrical machine. They
were then taken through the smoking
Lake Avernus which poured forth the
most obnoxious fumes, needless to say
that they made a hurried exit into
Queen Proserpina's room. Here each
freshman performed some stunt, before
he could leave the land of hades, and
then chose his partner for supper by
means of a lottery.
The refreshments were then served
and the freshmen and sophomores en-
joyed a pleasant half hour playing
games together.

The four World War veterans who
yielded their lives in the murderous
attack of l. w. W. in Centralia, Wash
ington, did as much for their country
as any patriot who made the great
sacrifice on the fields of France. If
any incident was needed to solidify
the American Legion into a unit of
opposition to the radicals of the Unit
ed States it is furnished in the Cen
tralia affair. The swift vengeance
that fell upon those murderers will
be dealt out in lige measure to other
bands of anarchists who may attempt
to emulate their example.
