REPUBLICAN SOUABBLE

'"The efforts of the managers and
hackers of the six republican candi-
dates for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton to have the other five withdraw
in favor of his particular choice were
fruitless, as shown by the fact that
the secretary of state has certified
to the county clerks the names of
Ford, Dixon, Wilson, Slayton, Clin-
ton and Higgins as candidates in the
primary election.
'Not only is the manager of each
of these candidates vociferous in his
announcement that his man will win,
but each particular candidate, appar-
emily, from the active campaigns
they are carrying on, is equally pos
tive his name will appear on the bal
lot in November. The Ford people
are particularly confident, and they
apparently have reason to be.
''But Dixon and his hackers are
just as sure of success as is Ford.
Dixon is the DR.. o. M. Lanstrum can
didate, and he figures that he will
get all of the old progressive follow
ing. In addition to this, Dixon is the
choice of some very influential men
in the Montana Development Assoc
iation, and while that organization
has not gone on record as endorsing
any gubernatorial candidate, Dix
on's friends. have let it be understood
that he is their choice and that the
balloting August "a will prove this
to be fact.
Wilson, of Billings, is the stand
pat, reactionary candidate, the sell
ection of State Senator j. E. Ed
wards and State Senator Edward
Donlan of Misoula. They do not re-
gard Dixon as republican, not being
able to forget that it was Dixon who
helped disrupt the republican party
in state and nation a number of
years ago, so they decided they would
select a candidate with whom to beat
him and they hit upon Wilson. They
also say they will elect Wilson. State
Senator Slayton of Musselshell coun-
ty, "just happened" as a guberna-
forial candidate While the repub-
lican leaders were talking about re-
lieving the distress of the farmers
and selecting lawyers as gubernator
ial candidates, Slayton announced
his candidacy as that of real farm
er. He is, in fact, the only real farm
er on the republican list.
"R L. Clinton, of Butte, is anoth- |
er lawyer, who is after the farmer
vote. He was the attorney of the
Deer Lodge farmers in the celebrated
''smoke" cases which were in court
from Deer Lodge a number Of years
ago. He evidently expects he will
be considered the farmers candidate,
because for several weeks he has
been running his picture in the coun-
try weeklies pretty generally over
the state.

SCITILOP
With Side Dishes

According to the clique that is MAX
ing such a desperate fight to control
the county Offices there is only one
man against them, no farmers, no
mechanics, no laboring men, only
Taylor. They make a lot of noise to
distract attention from the main plot.
S. C.. Ford sends out quite an i'm
pressive statement of his position
and platform and then his publicity
bureau" or whoever prepares his
"readers" completely spoils it all by
a long wall Of misery that betrays
soreness because Ford was not en-
dorsed by the Leaguers, and casts
lot of nasty insinuations against
Senator Walsh and A. E. Spriggs.
The Herald once had an account
land still has it, for personal, polit-
ical advertising against Plentywood
person, and when statement was
presented we were advised to file a
claim against Sheridan county for
the amount. We did not fall in with
the brilliant idea but the incident is
one of the many reasons why The
Herald is so determined that Roose-
yelt county shall never adopt the
Sheridan county style of running
,hings.

Man man! can't you understand that
these Wolf Point candidates are far
mers, workingmen who have never
been oked and tagged by the county
bosses?

Funny, isn't it, how every ore OF
those east end town candidates fol
reelection just happen to be repub-
licans. Seems as if some of 'em used
to be something else.
Oh well, this is only a practice

1t is hoped that all the Roosevelt
county candidates for commissioner
are following Sheridan county af-
fairs. It's free postgraduate

ernment.
The question is, are we going to
take out insurance against gang rule
in Roosevelt county or will we take a
chance that the politicians now in the
saddle just naturally love us West
Enders so well that they will hand
US what we are entitled to without
our having any representation at the
county seat. Some chance, that.
There is still one town on the
Main Line where the farmers are

ust 10Th to the big picnic-rally.
Of course this neck of the woods
never had any representation when
it was a part of Sheridan county,
didn't get any recognition when
Roosevelt county was created and has
no prospect of getting any from the

Reason Why So Many FIocks Are Un-

Lack of proper culling thus far has

cases, the principal reason why poul-

cent Of the hens in the average farm

should be sold or eaten. 1t costs about
81 year, taking the country over, to
feed each hen. If she does not pro-
duce more than that amount of eggs

STILL OWES HALF MILLION
"Bushel Basket" Millionaire

Two Years in Cell.
STILL OWES HALF MILLION

Boston, Aug. 12.-Charles Ponzi. the
"bushel basket millionaire" who
claims to have made his millions in
operating in international postal reply
coupons, formally surrendered himself
to the federal authorities here today.
Ponzfs act came, it was understood,
when the state authorities were about
to place him under arrest.
Released on $25, 900 Bond.
Shortly after surrendering to Mar
shall Duane, Ponzi obtained bond of
$4,000 and was released for a hear
ing on August 19. The federal charge
placed against Ponzi was using the
mails to defraud, it was stated at the
federal building.
In short statement after PonZi's
surrender. District Attorney Gallagher
said: Monday Ponzi told me that
when the audit was completed he
would show enough assets on Friday
to cover. In a talk with postoffice in
spectors yesterday while comforting
with Mr.. Pride, the auditor, he made
certain admissions. I notified Ponzi I
would not wait until tomorrow. Later,
he told me, I shall not be able to do
tomorrow what I promised to do"
In U. S. MarshaI's Custody.
Ponzi was said to be in the custody
OF U. 8. Marshal Duane The federal
authorities refused to make any state
ment- Ponzi. accompanied by United
States District Attorney Daniel Gal
lagher surrendered to United States
Marshal Duane a few minutes before
I o'clock.
The little promoter was extremely
nervous and grave when he gave him
self up. Neither the federal authori-
ties nor Ponzi would say what Ponzrs
reason was for surrendering.
Bank Wiped Out.
Shortly before 1870, Bank Commits
sioner ]. c. Allen declared that the
capital Of the Hanover Trust company
which he seized yesterday was not
simply impaired but probably wiped
out. The capitalization was 100000.
Ponzi conducted practically all of his
mysterious financial operations thru
the Hopover Trust company and held a
large share of the stock in the insti-
tuition.
News of PonzFs surrender quickly
spread thru the city. Crowds gathered
in the downtown streets and about the
federal building where Ponzi surren-
dered. That many in the crowds were
investors in Ponzis get-rich-quick
scheme, was clear from the angry
mutterings heard on all sides.
Has One Big Regret.
Charles Ponzi, Boston financial
genius, whose place of business and
bank were in the hands of state off
cials, today had just one big regret.
He regretted more than anything
else. the fact that he never told his
little wife of his two terms in prison.
He said he had kept the incidents
secret and hoped the past would for
ever remain buried, as far as she was
concerned.
Mrs. Ponzi. as far as known. has
not yet learned of her husband
prison record. Ponzi remained at
