DEMOCRATS AT GLrNDIVE
HAVE BIG MEETING

The Democratic rally last Sunday
evening drew an immense crowd
which filled the Elk's hall to both
seating and standing capacity, with
| several hundred unable to get inside
of the hall.
The meeting was called to order by
the Democratic State Central Com
| mitteeman, Desmond j. o. Neil, who
with few well chosen remarks intro
duced Hon. G. c. Hurley as the first
speaker OF the evening. Judge Hurley
spoke briefly on the national ticket
and then spoke a few words in behalf
OF his own candidacy for reelection
as judge of the seventh district At the
conclusion Of his remarks, he received
tremendous ovation. Following
which Hon. B. X. Wheeler was intro
duced by Mr.. O'Neil as our next gov
ernor amid wild enthusiasm. Mr.
Wheeler spoke entirely upon the is
sues OF the date as relating to our
state conditions. After stating that
he was not member of the Non Parti
san League he took up the questions
which concerned relief for the COM
mon people from the burdens imposed
upon them and the advantages taken
OF them under the present system OF
laws. He compared the ownership of
state elevator and a state mill to the
ownership of public utilities by the
various municipalities throughout the
state and in telling and convinring
arguments he showed that the owning
OF an elevator or mill by the state
was no more socialistic than tho own
ershfp of water or light plant by the
citizens of any Of the cities in the
state
Mr.. Wheeler was frequently inter-
rupted with long and continued ap-
plause and at the conclusion of his re-
marks a large number of tie audience
crowded around him to shake hands
with him and congratulate him upon
his convincing arguments, after which
the audience, many of whom had come
from fifteen to twnty miles to hear
Mr.. Wheeler, returned to their homes
feeling that they had attended one of
the greatest political rallies ever held
in Glendive.

HON. c. c. HURLEY, JUDGE OF
THE SEVENTH JUDICIAL
DISTRICT, CANDIDATE
FOR REELECTION

c. G. Hurley arrived in Glendive in
June, 1899 and opened law office
and has resided in Glendive ever since
He was elected County Attorney OF
Dawson County at the general cleo
of 1902 and reelected at the general
election in 1904 upon the Democratic
ticket; at that time, the county was
Overwhelmingly Republican and in or.
der for Democrat to be elected at
all in Dawson County it was necessary
to secure as many Republican votes
as there were Democratic votes in the
county. He conducted the affairs OF
the County Attorneys office during
his entire term of office without the
assistance of deputy or stenogra-
pher During his term of office ha
prosecuted five murder cases, secur-
III convictions In four of them. Dur
ing his term of office as county attor-
ney, he was recognized as one of the
fairest and most impartial county at
torneys in the state, always conci-
entiously recognizing the rights of a
defendant brought on for trial, never
making personal attack upon per-
son on trial or attempting to take any
undue advantage of him, yet he re-
tired from the county attorneys Of

He was elected judge of the ssv.
enth judicial district at the general
elction in 1912 and rejected in 1916.
Turing his term of office as district
judge, he has made a record equaled
by few and excelled by no district
Judge in the state. He has been able
to conduct the business of the district
so that the vast majority of litigation
submitted to him is disposed OF when
his decision is made. There have been
very few appeals to the Supreme
Court of the State from his decisions
and the great majority of cases ap-
pealed were affirmed by the Supreme
Court. Thre is not District Judge in
the state who has had fewer revrsals
in the supreme court than Judge Hur-

FAvoRS SMALL REGULAR ARMY
National Organization Supplemented
by Large Citizen Army ls Ideal
Sought by Legion.


A small regular army supplemented
by large citizen army is the ideal
sought In the American Legion Army
Reorganization bill (Senate Bill 1892
to the which the support of the legion
is pledged through it's national legis-
lative committee In accordance with
resolutions adopted at the Minneapo-
IFS convention.
The provisions Of the bill may be
summarized as follows;
The large citizen army would be
composed of all young men between
the ages of eighteen and twenty-one,
who would take a four-months' course
In intensive training-vOcational, ed
ucational and military.
Veterans of the war would not be
called upon to serve these four months
or 10 take any other training, although
provisions probably would be made
to accept veterans who volunteered to
assist In the training program.
Young men could elect, if they SO de
sired, to substitute for the four
listment Of three years in the National
Guard This National Guard service
would be under rules specified by the
federal government requiring weekly
drills and certain standards of pro
ticiency.
The training proposed would not in
terfere unduly with the regular oc-
equations of the young men enrolled
because there would he both winter
and summer periods of which they
could make their choice. This would
enable the youth working on a north
ern farm to select the winter train
ing period and be assigned to train
ing camp In the south In any event,
he would be away from home com
paratively short time and he would
not be absent during the harvest sea-
son.
Furthermore, young men would be
placed In training according to the
service for which they are best suited,
For example, negro youths of the
south, who had not gone far in school
ing might be enrolled In labor battal-
ions. In these they would acquire the
rudiments of drill, but, more impor-
tant, would learn habits of right liv-
ing.
A careful selection of officers would
be relied on to insure the system
against any abuse of authority. Off
GERS unsuted for training work,
whether they belonged to the regular
army, the national guard or the re-
serve corps, would not be assigned
to training camps. Those developing
traits that impaired their usefulness
would be relieved. Civilian officers
would have an equal share with reg
ular army officers In the training pro-
gram.
Advocates of the system of com
pulsory training say that a small reg
ular army together with a large citi-
zen army as contemplated would cost
less than even the regular army es-
tablishment, which would be set UP
under the bill which the house Of rep
resentatives now is considering seri-
ously.

the farmer will readily under
stand, and that is that person
who makes such improvements is
not spending his money but in
vesting it in improvements that
he and his family may enjoy or
will contribute to the benefits of
his operations as well as being a
larger price if he should sell out.
The difference between the
farmers gross income and expens-
es is known as his net income,
which is the amount the farmer
must consider, together with other
income, in determining whether
or not an income-tax return is re-
quired.
It should not be a difficult mat
ter for the farmer who has kept
no books to figure up his net in
come. He generally has record of
what he marketed for goods or
cash and knows what he expended
in the way of cash.
Among farm expenses allowable
are the cost of minor repairs on
buildings (but not the dwelling
house,, on fences, wagons, and
farm machinery; also bills paid
for horseshoeing, stock powders,
rock salt, services of veterinary,
insurance Except on dwelling
house) gasoline for operating
power, and sundry other expenses
which were paid for in cash.
81 AS TO hired help, all of the pro,
ductive labor is a necessary eX
pense, but the wages Of ,housholC
servants or help employed to i'm
prove the farm, such as tree plant
ing, building fence, ditching, etc.
are outlays for improvements ant
cannot be claimed against tht
earnings. These expenditure
should be capitalized or added t.
the value of the farm or ranch.
The purpose of farm machinery
wagons, animals, etc, and the con
= struction or extension of build
ings, silo, fencing, ETC., should b
! likewise capitalized, as they ar
:. investments. In so far as they ar
4 useful in earning farm income,
a reasonable deduction may be mad

cost will be spread owed the ust

Newark post., 1920-02-11
Defining Farm Expenses

From his gross income a farmer
is allowed to charge off all Of his
necessary expenses in the conduct
of the farm during the year.
These include costs of putting in
his crop, of caring for his crop,
and of harvesting and marketing.
In addition to these costs he may
deduct money spent for ordinary
farm tools of short life bought
during the year, such as shovels,
rakes, etc. Also, the cost of feed
purchased for his live stock may
be treated as an expense, in so
far as this cost represents actual
outlay; but the value of his own
products fed to animals is not a
deductible item.
If during the year the farmer
purchased trees for the planting
of an orchard, or if he built or
improved the farm drainage, pull
led stumps on the farm, dug a we'll,
erected a barn or new fences, or
expended money for any other pur-
pose that improved his farm, such
expenditures are not chargeable
against the income for the year.
There is a reason for this which

"Knock Your Town And
You Knock YOURSELF

An ideal citizen is one who sees
something good in his town and
spreads the good news abroad that
others may benefit therefrom. Of
course, there are other sidelights
to the ideal citizen, but the quality
of loyalty is one which produces
tangible results. There are three
distinct attitudes which a person
may assume toward the community
which houses and feeds him-to
boost, to remain quiescent or
knock. The booster pushes his
town along, the quiescent citizen
lulls it to sleep, and the knocker
helps to put it out of business
Which are you? Perhaps you have
never given it a thought. You
may not realize yourself which
you are-but your neighbors all
know. They have accurately cata
logued according to your deserts
If you are a booster they admire
you; if you are quiescent, they
wonder when you will emerge from
your slumber; and if you are ;
knocker they yearn for the day
when you will fold up your ten
and silently fade away. Boost tn
home town and it's citizens viii
boost you. Knock it and yol

They went off on the plains
some distance from Hollywood,
and built copy of a section OF
the Lincoln Highway. Through
this, almost at the same height as
the roadway, they made a ditch
twenty feet wide and had it filled
with water. Then there was built
on one side an incline three feet
high with twelve-foot runway.
Russell got into his roadster,
, went back about an eighth OF a
mile and let it go. He was NOV
ing at the rate of seventy-five
miles an hour when his wheels
struck the incline. He hit it
squarely; had he not done so the
wheels of one side or the other
would have struck the ground be-
yond the ditch first and he might
have been overturned. His car
flew into the air, going some siS
feet higher than the level of the
road. 1t leaped the distance over
the water in fraction of second
and went on for a hundred yards
before the driver stopped it.
