1 The story Is continued, that they were
not to NEEDLE with the Edonites, o nor
the Moabftes. II nor with the Ammonites
"A but sihon the Amorite was subdued
by them.
Then we turned. and took our
journey into the wilderness by the
way of the Red sea. as the Lord
spake unto me: and we compassed
mount Seir many days.
2 And the Lord spake unto me
saying.
3 Ye have compassed this noun
tain long enough: turn you north
ward.
And command thou the people,
saying, Ye are to pass through the
coast OF your brethren the children
of Esau, which dwell in Seir: and
they shall be afraid of you: take ye
good heed unto yourselves there
fore:
NEEDLE not with them; for !
will not give you of their land. no,
not so much as a footbreadth; be-
cause 1 have given mount Seir unto
Esau for a possession.
Ye shall buy meat of them
for money, that ye may eat; and We
shall also buy water of them for
money. that ye may drink.
For the Lord thy God hath
blessed thee in all the works of thy
hand: he knoweth thy walking
through this great wilderness. these
forty years the Lord thy God hath
been with thee; thou hast lacked
nothing.
s And when we passed by from
Dur brethren the children of Esau,
which dwelt in Seir. through the
way of the plain from Elath, and
from Ezion-gaber, we turned and
passed by the way OF the wilder
ness of Moab.
8 And the Lord said unto me.
Distress not the Moabites. neither
contend with them in battle: for
I will not give thee of their land
for n possession; because ] have
given Ar unto the children of Lot
for a possession.
10 The Emim dwelt therein in
times past. a people great. ana
many, and tall. as the Anakim:
giants, as the Anakim; but the
Moa bites call them Emim.
12 The Horim also dwelt in Seir
beforetime; but the children OF Esau
succeeded them. when they had de-
stroyed them from before them. and
dweit in their stead: as Israel did
unto the land of his possession,
which the Lord gave unto them.

SOVIET IS PROCLAIMED IN DANz|C
Foreign Agitators
Mr.. Kilroy says in yesterdays Standard:

Mr. Kilroy says in yesterdays Standard:
If the reds take possession of the state and county
governments, they may succeed in making the Ana
conda company close it's mines and mills, but they
can not put it out of business. They throw
thousands of people out Of employment, but they
not materially harm the properties. The company is
now operating in South America in Old Mexico in
Arizona and in number Of other states In most of
these localities the opportunities for mining and
manufacturing copper are far more convenient and
profitable than in this state The Anaconda direc
tors could close down all their Montana properties
tomorrow and still have more than enough copper
N to supply their market requirements. AS against
their 34 tons per from the Butte district they
are able to produce as much as % 1-2 tons per
in of their other properties in various localities
Nhs being due mainly to the character Of the and
physical conditions which make the mining opera
tions much more simple and economical.
No doubt the A. G. M. can produce copper cheaper
with Mexican poems and Chinese coolies imported to
South America than with American labor. We don't
expect Montana miners and setermen to work for the
wages Mexican poems and Chinese coolies and the
Montana miners and setermen will not submit to peoll-
age conditions of living. The people of Butte and Mon
tana will from run their government instead
of submitting to the corrupt A. c. M companys inter
nationalist autocracy operating in several nations The
foregoing statement from the a. G. M. company sheet
proves that the company is foreigner operating through
non resident agitators, Con Kelly and John D. Ryan,
who trying to coerce and dictate to you how you
vote and who you to vote for and who you shall
elect office that the A. c. NJ company be die
tator Of Silver Bow county and Montana in the future
in the past. We have had enough of srespec for the
law and special privileges to the company by Sheriff
O'Rourke, Sam Anderson, Judge Jackson, Judge Laml
and others of their kind
You voters have the power to put the A. G. M. com
pany and its corrupt allies out of politics and make then
obey and respect laws constitution and form of
er1lrnent You working people, farmers and business
men, the sooner you your own government instead
letting the A. c. M company through it's privately owned
corrupt public officials and election crooks run you
government the better it will be. If this A. G. M com
pany about to abandon the Butte mines intimate
by Mr. Klroy nominal editor of the Anaconda STANDARD
it will be a very good chance for the people of Silve
Bow county and the state of Montana to take th
mines and them for the public instead Of maxim
$685. 600 war profit for Con Kelley John D. Ryan
