He served two terms in the terri
Montana. Under statehood he was
leader in three legislative ses-
sions. During the excitement that
marked Montana's early career in
statehood, Mr.. Toole was conspicu-
ously prominent in political and in
public affairs. He was recognized
as an adroit organizer; he was an
intrepid fighter; he put the courage
of his convictions into every strug-
gle, and he had the satisfaction of
scoring an unusual number of sue
cesses. His singular good fortune
was that, when the trouble ceased
and Montana was at peace, there
was cordial recognition, by those
with whom he had clashed, of hon..
orable methods and fair fighting.
First and last, through it all, Mr..
Toole had, in fact, no relish for
politics or liking whatever for pub
licity or controversy. He was glad
to escape from the arena of con-
tention.
Twenty years ago Mr.. Toole as
suned the office and duties of pres
ident of the Big B1ackfoot Milling
company, which has vast business
in connection with the operations
of the Anaconda Copper Mining
company, centered at Missoula.
During ten years he was president
of the Daily Bank & Trust COM
pany at Anaconda. He gave up
the responsibilities of that office,
but he continued to be an officer
and stockholder in that bank. Then
for several years Mr. Toole also
was engaged in railroad construc-
ton.
In spite of the routine of large
Mr.. Toole found
more or less leisure for things that
are most congenial for man of
MS mental turn. ,Life's higher and
better pursuits had an unfailing at
raction for him. He was an indus
rious and discerning student of the
ubjects that tend toward intellec-
ual and spiritual uplift.

married women. Believing that
American-born women resident in
the United States should not forfeit
their citizenship by marriage with
aliens, and that alien women should
not acquire citizenship by marriage
with Americans, but rather by meet
ing the same requirements as those
provided for the naturalization of
alien men, we urge federal legisla-
tion insuring to the women of the
United States the same Independent
status for citizenship as that which
noW obtains for men.

Benton River Press. He made SC
good at it that he threw his schapps
away and has never since worn them.
When Russell Harrison, son of a
former president of the United
States, came to Helena and founded
the Helena Journal, he asked to be
put in touch with the best subscrip-
tion man in the state. That is how
Campbell became associated with
him. His work was so good that the
Helena Independent stole him away
from Harrison, and what the Inde-
pendent did to Harrison, the Helena
Record, some Is years later, did to
the Independent. For number of
years Campbell has been connected
with the Billings Gazette.
When the print paper shortage be-
came acute the Print Paper trust
and we give 1t capitals because we
have to pay 1t so much money, stipu-
lated that CampbelPs activities
should be curtailed and that he
should be permitted to turn in only
SO many new subscribers every day.
The moral of this tale is: Be the
best. Whatever your walk of life
may be, try to be first in it. In his
line Campbell is the best in all the
west.

Here is the homely visage of a
hustler. He is A. A. Campbell, prem
ier newspaper subscription solicitor
of all the wide area between the prai-
ries and the coast. He can call every
out-of-town subscriber of half-a-
dozen of the leading dailies of Mon
tana, generally providing they are
of the sterner sex, by their first
names. He has a wider acquaintance
in Montana than any other man in
| the state.
For a third of century he has
been going up and down Montana,
selling circulation by individual ef-
fort, for the larger state dailies.
During this long time he has met
thousands of people, and has made
most of them readers of the newspa-
per he happened to be representing
at the time. Frequently he has work
ed himself out of a job by securing
all the available subscribers, after
which there were none left for him
to sell to. He knows how to SYM
pathize with Alexander the Great.
Campbell was born in Virginia a
long time ago. AS a youth he knew
General Robert E. Lee, idol of the
south. In the first flush of his young
manhood he went to Texas and be-
came cowboy. At that time he
thought being cowboy was about
the finest thing in the world.
He came to Montana 35 years ago
with Texas 1onghorns, riding mus
tang pony all the way. The green
fields and fat pastures and kindly
folk of Montana appealed to him and
he resolved to remain here. He
punched" COWS and rode the ranges
for several years.
Then he decided to go into the
newspaper game. There was little |
work for the cowboys in the winter
time, and this season of the year was
usually spent at Fort Benton, then |
the states river metropolis. One |
winter Campbell went to work soli-
citing subscriptions for the old Fort |

Toole, who became citizen of this
state when he was IS years of age.
He was born on July 3, 1849, in
Aroostook county, Maine. The
years of his. boyhood and youth
were passed in Madison, Wiscon-
sin. There he was educated, and at
the age of Is, started westward.
In Utah he engaged in mining
operations and five years later
Idaho attracted him. He won an
excellent name in the management
of mining properties and his asso-
Citations with men then engaged in
large operations in Butte resulted
in the transfer of his residence to
Montana, and in 1884 Anaconda
became his home. AT once he as
sumed charge there of important
interests connected with the opera
tions of the Anaconda Copper Min
ing Company. During several
years he was trusted specialist in
the exploration of mining proper
ties in Montana and elsewhere.
Marcus Daly's Friend
Mr.. Toole's ability in an execu-
tive way firmly established him in
the good will of those with whom
he sustained business relations. He
enjoyed the warm esteem and the
complete confidence of Marcus
Daily, then the central figure in
Montana's mining operations. He
rapidly took place of influence
n Anaconda and shared generous
y in the promotion of its munich
oal and civic affairs. He display
ID tact and good judgment and a
willingness to help every useful
work; he served unselfishly in
very good cause. His genial
rats commended him to the good /
will of his townsmen. They placed
he utmost confidence in his integ-
ity, they listened cheerfully to his
ounsel; his personal worth won
heir respect.

Miss Marie Mosher, youthful Hell
ena beauty, was recently elected Col
den Glow queen of Helena in the
Commercial Club contest which was
held to elect queen for the first
annual Golden Glow carnival, which
is to be an annual feature of early
summer at the capital hereafter, but
when the election was held, some
thing more than a lot of voting was
stirred up by the winsome Miss
MOsher.
At least two towns are battling VI
ciously for the honor of her former
residence. Articles have appeared in
the newspapers of each of the con-
testing towns stating that "our city
has been honored, etc." by the cleo
tion OF one of "our daughters" as
golden glow queen of Helena.
The circle banner., 1920-06-18

The two that claim the honor OF
having been instrumental in putting
the Golden Glow queen where she is
are Augusta and Clemons. Augusta
seems to have little the best of the
argument so far. Their article was
headed Augusta Girl Honored. =
Clemons broke forth with heading
"Clemons Girl to be Queen"
One of the stories reads, Miss
Marie Mosher, daughter of Mrs.
Amelia Mosher of Clemons," and the
other one reads, miss Marie Mosher,
daughter of Mrs. Amelia Mosher, :"
and then 1t said that Miss Mosher
was popular here at home" as we'll
as In Helena. As far as could be
learned there have been no casual
ties thus far.

Effective in Combating Flu.

The medicine which proved most
effective in the recent "fu" epidemic

full results. 1t is pleasant to take, and
is very good for children. 1t is valua-
BILE as a sedative in affections of the

as a calmative in bronchial irritation.

Starting this week, the holiday sea
son, extending from Thanksgiving
Day until New Years, will be ushered
in by hundreds of little Christmas
seals, on sale in all parts of the State
and destined to bring good cheer to
many homes. New Jersey has 3d.
100000 seals to dispose of this year
(this means ten seals at one cent
each, for every man, woman and child
in this State), in order that 100000
may be raised enabling the New Jer-
sey tuberculosis League and it's thir-
ty-iye branch organizations located
throughout the State to successfully
carry on a big health program planned
for the coming year. Many business
houses would not think of permitting
a letter or package to leave the Office
without the Christmas seal. Hun
dreds of persons would hesitate giving
a Christmas present without first see
ing that the paper containing the gift
was sealed with the stamp of good
health. Somehow, the holiday season
seems incomplete without it.
Since the Christmas seal plays such
an important part in nearly eyeryone's
life at Christmas-tide, a great many
persons might be interested in know
ing the history of this little seal. The
Christmas seal dates back, in origin,
to the Charity stamp, used during
the Civil War to raise funds for sol
dier's relief. Then in 1904, when Den
mark first used Christmas seals for
the purpose of building a hospital,
Jacob Riis, well-known settlement
worker in New York, decided to adopt
it for this country by enlisting Santa
Claus as our champion to circulate
Christmas stamps for the purpose of
educating and arousing the people to
fight against the White Plague. Mr..
Riis conceived the idea that everyone
who saw the stamp would wish to
know what it meant, and then, half
the battle would be won. 1t is be
cause people do not know a few simple
things that so many people die each
year from tuberculosis.
Following the success with which
this plan met, Miss Emily Bissell, and
other influential members of the
Delaware branch of the Red Cross So
ciety, started the movement of Christ
mas seals, which today owe almost
the entire country. A stamp was de-
signed gratis and printed at cost. A
large advertising firm prepared an
advertising campaign as a free gift,
and for two weeks an extensive cam
paign was waged. Last year 400, 000,-
900. seals were sold in the United
States, and this year 900,0 900 900 are on
sale.
And today, this little unique stamp,
with its interesting history is on sale,
and the revenue derived from it makes
it possible for tuberculosis workers
to provide more health nurses to look
after cases in congested districts;
open more nutrition classes to look
after the health of the malnourished
child; provide open-air schools, and
send anaemic children away for a
two weeks vacation; open more elm
les throughout the State and improve
hospital facilities, and in every way,
promote health in such a manne as
10 materially lessen the death rate
from tuberculosis in this State.

legislature, the needs of the state
along financial lines, and shows just
what has been spent, and for what
purpose. The matter will be thresh-
ed out during the coming week. 1t
would seem that some kind of bud
get system ought to be god thing.
President Wilson in his last message
to congress recommended it for the
nation. Whether the present system
in this state is of any benefit or not
is question. of course, for the gen
eral assembly. but if the principle is
correct it would seem that they could
correct the defects and get system
that is of benefit.
The customary forty days of the
session expired the past week, and the
coming week will be extra" time.
The session will not last much longer.
It will probably be characterized by
the big amount of the appropriation
bill, which, however, is necessary
with the growing needs Of the state,
and such good roads legislation as
may be finally enacted. The appro-
priation bill has, of course, got to
grow with the increasing demands OF
the state, but the sources Of revenue
should correspondingiy increase. and
the legislature would have done well
to have followed the recommends
tions of the governor in this regard as
to inheritance taxes and such mat
ters. Inheritance and income taxes
and an equalization of property
valuations would solve the problem
of taxation.
