The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1920-10-22

Fred B. Gillette was born in Chi
cago, Ills, in 1883. He was educated
in the public schools of that city. After
graduating from the South Division
High School, he was engaged until
1904 in the fire insurance business.
This experience is important to him
at this time. For years attempts
have been made to pass some legisla-
ton in this State to remedy the de-
fects in our insurance laws. So far
our legislation has been largely for
the benefit of the insurance companies
instead Of the policy holders. Fred
Gillette knows the insurance business
and will bend every effort to aid in
enacting legislation to protect the pol
icy holder.
In 1904, Mr.. Gillette located on a
homestead three miles west of Hins-
dale. At that time dry-farming me-
thods had not been applied to farm
ing. The Milk River Irrigation Pro-
ject was in the process of organiza-
ton. His efforts were gratiously de-

state where his League operated, and
moved the first paper, now the "Na-
tional N%onpartisan Leader" to st.
Paul and later to Minneapolis.
Thus we saw many members, en-
ployees and state officials elected by
the League discarded. They dared to
criticise Townley, the promoter, and
Townley, the political boss, gave
orders to his editors to attack and dis
credit them. No member of the
League, no official Of the League, and
no public official elected by the
League, has been able to get any
criticism, of any kind, published in
the "official' paper iii Townley's
papers. And her let me record, they
never will. The columns of the "of-
fetal" papers are only open to those
who praise the "king". If an en-
ployee on the numerous "official'
papers of Boss Townley breaks this
unwritten law they are promptly dis
charged. Or if an Independent paper
is established in a local field by
League members and it should per-
chance disagree with the president"
or his attorney, that paper is imme-
diately attacked and discredited, and
T%ownley's "official" papers in large
headlines declare it has "sold out to
the enemy"
And thus the Nonpartisan League,
"A so-called farmers organization, is
dominated by one man, safe from
criticism from within his organiza-
ton, absolute master of all it's polit-
cies and actions because of his owner
ship of all of its official" papers,
while his salaried attorney sity with
him on the Executive committee
keeping his "official" papers "official'
and the subscriptions" flowing into
their treasury.
No such organization for power
was ever created within an organiza.
ton in the history Of the United
States, President Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor mus,

edge of %railroading. For 10 years he
was connected with the mechanical de-
partments of railway systems, end for
seven years he was employed by the
commission to which he has been nOmi-
mated as an inspector of railroads.
For the seven years last past Mr..
Ross has been engaged in mercantile
pursuits, so he knows traffic problems
from the three angles Of the railroader,
the shipper and the public official. His
standing where he is best known was
attested by his election to the ninth
and tenth legislative assemblies as a
member of the house from Missoula
county. He vas a winner by a big
majority both times and was chairman
of the house committee on labor In
both sessions.
Mr.. Ross was born in Chicago, where
he was reared and attended the public
schools. He has lived in Montana
since 1901 and is widely and %favorably
known throughout the state. Friends
say his election is one Of the certain
ties of the campaign.

voted to forwarding that project.
While awaiting it's completion he
tried his luck at dry land farming and
has been successful.
He has given special study to or
CARNATIONS for marketing farm pro-
ducts, and Is one of the best informed
men in the state upon that subject.
To make these organizations more
effective some new laws are neces-
sary. Such measures will receive Mi.
Gillette's support.
During the past 8 years he has
been U. S. Commissioner at Hinsdale,
and has acquired a thorough know
lege of land law. Mr.. Gillette has
represented a local lumber company
at Hinsdale for several years. He is
married and has one child.
Members of the Legislature are
called upon to solve problems of vital
Importance to the State and should
have broad experience. You will find
Mr.. Gillette excellently qualified for
this honor.

cieties and associations, political or
otherwise, in the United States, ex-
cepting privately owned corporations
or concerns. Members control the
affairs of their organization-and the
official publication.
But in the Nonpartisan League,
Townley, the political boss, has diff
ferent ideas. He is typical of the
boss politician. He says the rank and
file shall not control my organization.
The boss shall dictate. In the Non
partisan League the "president'
dominates the members and the or.
g~anization instead of the organiza-
ton and the members dominating the
"president." The "official" papers
direct the members instead of the
members directing the policy Of the
paper. The boss politician wants no
criticism. He will not tolerate it,
and Townley wants no advice from
the members or criticism from them.

OH. pSHAW!

Are the people Of these United
States going to be bothered or in any
wise mised by all the "rot" the daily
newspapers are publishing with ref
erence to the new Eighteenth Amend
ment?
Because lot of city dailies, owned
or controlled by the liquor interests,
are raising Cain over the enactment Of
the Amendment (when it is too late)
are the people going to imagine the
voice Of the city press is the voice o.
the people?
We think not. We think Congress
proved that last week. when they vot-
ed down motion to repeal the Eigh-
teenth Amendment by vote of 254 to
Sc. Evidently Congressman (who
keep their ear pretty close to the
ground) thought the Getty fellers" in
the newspaper offices were just nuts"
in their gabble about the people being
in revolt against the Amendment.
These wise guys" up in the top OF
the newspaper sky scrapers just make
us good and tired when they set out to
represent the feelings and desires Of
the people. They represent nothing
but their owners.
