To DISTRIBUTE ROAD
FUNDS ACCORDING TO
DISTRICT VALUATIONS
Special to The Daily Tribune.

Special to The Daily Tribune.
Lewistown, Aug. 16.-There has been
continuous inquiry, discussion and pre-
dlction for weeks past as to the method
of distributing the 100000 to be de-
rived from the road bonds, should they
be authorized at the September election
and last evening the executive committee
of the Fergus County Good Roads as
sociation met AMI decided to ask the COM
missioners to formally declare their poll
cy in the matter, recommending that it
be based upon the assessed valuation Of
the various districts. The board, which
has all along intended to follow this plan
at oIce formally declared its policy to be
in exact accordance with the recon-
mendation of the county good roads or
ganization. This is expected to put an
end to all speculation upon the subject
and at the same time it will probably
greatly increase the chances of the bond
issue being approved. since the method
adopted is the one that is generally ac-
cepted as the only fair, just and equitable
one.

Daily Stock Letter.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
NEW YORK, June 23.--The New
York Evening Sun financial review
today said:
Today's stock market was a traders
affair without significant price trend.
There was a certain substratum Of
strength throughout the session and
there were intervals IN which the
list moved forward with some show
of briskness and again when 1t was
subjected to pretty sharp set-backs.
Trading was again at the rate Of
a million shares for the session. The
opening was higher, but unsettlem ent
quickly supervened, followed toward
midday by a decidedly mixed per-
Torrance in which numerous strong
spots came to the surface ut the
same time that weakness appeared
elsewhere. This was true of both
the industrials and rails.

An Attack on the People.


Omaha World-Herald: A sympathe
tic or general strike is not an attack
on employers, but an attack upon the
while people In other words, it is an
attack upon the government. The en-
ployers who may be affected by the
strike are comparatively few in num-
Der, but the sufferers are the whole
people The government, which Is the
representative Of the people, created
end paid by them, is in duty bound to
take action in such cases. If trans
portation is stopped the people
starve. If the mails are not delivered
all business is paralyzed. The sick
are left unattended. The patients in
the hospitals die for want OF nourish-
ment. If long continued it is whole
sale murder. What is a government
for if not to prevent such infliction
upon the whole people? If there is
wrong done to any portion of the peo-
pie, that is also cause for government
action If there is no machinery pro-
vided by law, then such machinery
should be provided. "a government by
the people and for the people" does
not mean a government by the labor
unions, which by concerted action
might overthrow it or render 1t power
less within twenty-four hours. If it
is not the right kind of government
the wage workers, who outnumber the
employers more than ten to one, can
take measures already provided by
law to improve it.

Origin Of the GypsIes.

The real origin OF the gypsies is a
problem yet to be definitely solved.
Many scholars have tried their hands
at it and in tracing the gypsies to
common ancestries have Unidentified
them with the lost tribes of Isreal,
the Saracens, the Canaanites and
various peoples Of India. Certain af-
finites of the Romany speech for
some Hindoo dialects give a founda-
ton for the theory Of their Indian
origin. 1t is said they were driven
from their homes in the northwest Of
India about 1000 years ago by the
hordes Of Genghis Khan and made
their way into Persia, thence to
Egypt and northern Africa, passing
through Asia Minor into the Euro
pean countries. The final migra-
ton was to America and Australia.

KNOX TO PUSH
HIS RESOLUTION
,...,d. 70 Get Vote on Measure
Despite Approval Of League OF
Nations Plan by Elihu
Root.
tpv T. C. Martin, United Press Staff
Correspondent

Correspondence
WASHINGTON, June 23.-While
Elihu Roots proposed program for
-.tification OF the peace treaty with
reservation was endorsed today by
most republican opponents OF the
league, Senator Knox, in formal
statement, declared he intends to
nress his resolution to vote.
Knox in his statement said: "Of
course l intend to press my resolu.
ton to 8 vote.
"The single question raised by the
resolution is whether the league
should receive further consideration
BY the people before the senate adj
yises its inclusion in the treaty.
This can be done without delay
ing peace a moment, and can be ac-
complished by exchange OF diplo-
matte notes at any time.
1T will be remembered this propo-
sition Of separate consideration was
presented to the senate December
g. 1918, before the president left for
Europe, and was pigeon-holed in the
committee on foreign relations, then
under democratic control"
Senator Hale, Maine, today present
ed an amendment to the Knox resolu-
ton, declaring it to be the policy Of
the United States ito encourage the
establishment and enter into" q
league of nations to guard the worlds
peace This league also should codify
International law and arrange for an
court of arbitration, the
amendment said. Hales res
olution carried out two suggestions
made by Elihu Root in his proposed
program for ratification of the treaty
by the senate. One was that the good
features of the proposed league should
not be rejected; the other that inter.
national law be codified and an inter
national arbitration plan be evolved.
In speech on his amendment Hale
said that the United States should go
ahead with the idea Of league, and
rot give up the whole plan because
President Wilson has presented a
scheme that does not guard American
rights and interests.
Let US have a league of nations in
spite Of Wilson, If he refuses to give
Us an American league" said Hale.
