Lou Bretzke is a native son of VAL
ley County. He was born on his faith
er's ranch on Brazil Creek in 1891. His
education began in Preparatory School
at Watertown, Wisconsin. Later he
entered the Public Schools of Glasgow
and was graduated from the Glasgow
High School in the Glass of 1912. His
school work was of the highest class,

High School in the State competitive
contest at Missoula.
After graduating he was appointed
Deputy Clerk of the District Court,

which time he was appointed Deputy
County Clerk & Recorder and remain
ed in that office until the summer of
1916
Upon the organization of Company
&c" of the "2nd" Montana Volun-
teers, Mr.. Bretzke was among the first
to volunteer his services. When that
Company was called to active duty in
the summer of 1916, he was sent with
this company to the Mexican Border,
and remained there until the Novem-
Der of that year when the Company
was demobilized. During the time he

While awaiting its 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 Mr..
Gillette's support.

been U. S. Commissioner at Hinsdale,
and has acquired a thorough know
lege of land law. Mr.. Gillette has

sas and educated in the public schools
of the latter State. 1t may be of in
terest to know that he was a classmate
of Attorney General Ford in the High
School.
Mr.. Wolking pursued an extensive
course in commercial lines at Walton
College in Spokane. After completing
his cours in Walton College he be-
came an accountant.
In 1913 he filed upon a homestead
in the southwest part of Valley Coun-
ty.
In 1918 Mr.. Wolking was elected
County Auditor. He has installed in
that office the best system for the
transaction of business of any County
Auditors office in this State.
During the war registration board
work, Mr. Wolking was Chief Clerk
for the local draft board. Through his
efforts and ability the work of that
board was as efficient as that of anv

work in those schools won for her a
life certificate in that State.
She came to Valley County in 1916
and taught in the Glasgow High School
until the close of, the school in 1919.
During that time she was in charge
Of the normal training department.
The object of that department is to
train teachers for the schools of this
State. Her success in that line is de-
monstrated by the fact that in no
county of the state are the teachers in
the public schools better qualified to
perform the work required of them.
She holds a State first grade teachers
certificate in Montana. Such certifi-
Gates are granted only to teachers of
high qualifications, and ability. No
one can advance any reason why Miss
Forster will not insure a continuation
of the excellent administration of this
office.
More than any other institution the
schools of North Dakota have suffer-
ed from the programme put in force in
that state. Miss Forster is not an ex-
pertinent in that office. The North
Dakota ideas of school administration
do not appeal to her at all. The work
that she has so far done in that office
is open to the inspection of the public.
You are invited to examine her record.

nation of it's character and her abil-

tenn in this county.
If elected, Miss Forster will devote
all her time and energy to the office.

WHOSE OK?

When the Republican party solicits
funds to pay the expenses of expos
ing the betrayal of the farmers by
the Co-Operator News-Dunn political
pirates, the News becomes frantic and
shouts "stool pigeons" political hire
lings' cold gang" epithets in which
its vocabulary abounds. When it APP
peals to the farmers to contribute
funds to elect the acknowledgements
dates, in whose nomination the farm
err had no voice, it smugly and sancti-
moniously flouts itself as the farmers
b%enefactor.
Did the Creator cease putting hon
esty and intelligence into human ma
ture when he finished the very poor
job of creating this specimen?

a part of 1917 and 1918 he worked
upon a farm in Wisconsin but finding
no relief, he spent a few months in
the last part of 1918 in Texas. Re-
covering there from rheumatism he
returned to his old home in Montana.
Whether in civil life or in Military
Service he has performed the duties
which evolved upon him with the ut
most fidelity and efficiency. No man
in Company &c" elected more respect
from his fellows than did Lou Bretzke.
When war was declared in 1917, Mr..
Bretzke volunteered his services. Up
on a physical examination it was found
that the attack of rheumatism dis
qualified him from Military duty and
he was rejected.
Since the summer of 1919 he has
been in engaged in ranching in this
County.
He is thoroughly conversant with
office systems. If he is elected he will
Immediately re-organize the County
Clerk & Recorders Office, put it upon
an efficient basis and greatly reduce
to the Tax Payers the cost Of that
office. His work has always been
thoroughly accurate. Should he be
elected, no criticism can be made of
the character of the service which he
will render to the public,

They have no other purpose. This

HI SHAM BATTLE

Mr.. Farmer, did you ever stop to
think what would happen if all the
banks and business men of GLASGOW
advertised in the News? That organ
would boost all of them just as it
now boosts those who do advertise in
It's columns. Ten years ago, when
the News carried advertising for manv
OF these concerns no word was utter
ed against them. Except for the sup-
port of the mercantile establishment

long since have passed out of exis-
tence. When that establishment ex-
ercised its rights to advertise where it
saw mt and refused to be a party to
of the public, the News

JOE DIXON

Years ago, Joe Dixon was the News
ideal. For years it's columns carried
hundreds of inches of space praising
him as the foremost public mar in
Montana. Joe Dixon stands today
where he always stood. Upright, hon
est, straightforward. It is the News
which has somersaulted.
Joe Dixon knows the Dummies and
the farmers have nothing in common.
He refuses to practice deceit upon the
farmer. That is why the News has
turned against him.

"AMERICA FIRST"


In a recent bulletin issued by the
American Association Of Engineers
the closing statement is as follows:
at should be distinctly understood
that the political activities of the
American Association of Engineers
are non-partisan, and that the Asso-
citation places the interests of the peo-
pie Of the United States ahead of
party and ahead of the interests of
the engineering profession ITSELF"
What a superb statement this is for
the consideration of every man VINO
is really a patriot at heart and who
loves America more than he loves his
party or his own individual profession!
This association, representing many
of the foremost engineers of America
thus places itself on record as being
wholly non-partisan in all of the in
formation which it seeks to gather or
disseminate in regard to political mat
tiers, and also gives assurance to the
public that it regards the interests
of the people at large as greater than
the interest of any party. and great
er than the individual welfare of its
w members.
How many other business organiza-
tons in all parts of the country are
similarly moved in this time when
world conditions are such that the only
hope for the salvation of America
from the turmoil and unrest and pos
sible revolution is the conservation to
the welfare of the country of every
real patriot, wholly without regard to
party ties or party affiliations of the
past?
We wish that it were in the power
of some man to awaken this country to
the tremendous issues which the nation
faces.
Talking a few weeks ago with one
of the most broadly informed ministers
of the country, who has been studying
the turmoil and unrest which prevails
throughout America and in Canada,
n who for the purpose of getting at
the inside had visited a large part of
Canada and the United States, this
man of vision, not by any means an
alarmist, said that, humanity speaking
ne could see nothing whatever ahead
OF this country except a fearful rev.
o%lution, and that unless it was saved
by Divine Power he could see only
chaos ahead of us.
We are not pessimists. We have
faith in America; faith in its people.
But we know that human nature is to-
day the same that it has been through
the ages. We know what has happened
in Russia and what happened in the
days Of the French Revolution, and
we know that unless the people of this
country are thoroughly awakened to
the dangers which confront us, it is en-
tirely possible for a small minority to
get control of the whole situation and
dominate this country, as small min
critics dominated France during the
Revolution, and as a small minority
dominates Russia in a revolution
which surpasses in f~erocity even the
awful record of France.
America can be saved, but America
must put forth the utmost effort to
awaken its W people and make them
consecrate themselves to the task
before US, just as freely as they did
during the war with Germany, when
party lines were sunk and people
thought first of America and not of
parties. That must be the supreme
issue before this country today.

The office of County Auditor is of

persons in that office would cause a

ing's record is above criticism and en-
titles him to a reelection.

"After two months of personal investi-
cation on conditions abroad, 1 am firmly of
the opinion that this country cannot hope to
develop a healthy business and be able to com
pete with foreign markets, unless we re-
establish merchandise selling prices more
nearly on a par with conditions existing prior
to the war"
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1920-10-08

Has the Republican party as much
right to give you the truth as the News
has to exhibit its hypocrisy?
Fortunately, the voters this year
are demanding facts, not abuse. The
News cannot deliver in that kind of a
fight. Read it's current issue.
