THE STACKER CITIZEN.

The indifference of the average city
voter is proverbial. His lack of in
terest in the business of government
is only surpassed by that of the av-
erage political barnacle who holds of
flee for the sake of holding office only.
The point is driven home by two car
toons which recently appeared in the
leading st. Paul paper, the Pioneer
Press. The c~artoonist pictures a
crowd, made up of the best citizens,
watching with b%reathless interest the
thrilling climb of a Humanity" up
the side of a modern sky-scraper,
while a caucus to get the public's ex'
preston on presidential candidates is
attended by a scant handful of vot'
ers and is being run entirely by pro
fessional politicians. In the other he
pictures the zeal and interest tina

WILL GET HIM NOTHING.

Johnson does not appear to know
yet the simple fact that the American
people do not like a knocker. Even
if other candidates have spent all the
money he accuses them of in their
campaigns the people will have no
use for a rival who makes it the chief
issue of his campaign to knock his
opponents. Tattle tales are sometimes
useful but they never rise sufficiently
high in the estimation of their fellow
men to be chosen for the office Of
president of the United States. The
people will listen to that sort of thing
for a while with patience, thinking
there may be some truth in it per-
haps, but the continual harping that
Johnson is doing is bound to cause a
revulsion of feeling against him and
he will be measured as not so much
actuated by horror of Doodle as by a
wild ambition to become president,
with the result that he will defeat his
own cause.-Miles City Star.

the average man displays in selecting
an office boy or oil for his motor car,
while he remains sublimely Indifferent
to the class of men who are to repre-
sent him in the legislative halls of the
state and nation.
Commenting on the above, the Press
says:
AS Ring Lardner might say, isn't
it the truth? ?" We exercise our best
a and Judgment in selecting those
to fill positions in private life, but
when it comes to securing men to run
the business of cur city, u state and
federal government we are satisfied
to leave it to the politicians. We neg
lect to vote, we stay away from the
c~aucuses, we ignore conventions, with
the result that highly orgasized MI
norities have things pretty much their
w way, except on rare occasions.
1t is time for citizens to wake up.
If we want efficient government at
the state capital, at Washington, we
must go after it. If we want to keep
the government from falling into the
hands of socialists, if we want to keep
the state government from falling into
the hands of the nonpartisan league,
if we want to keep the national gov
eminent from falling into the hands
of the red radical element, we must
do our part.
The man who neglects to vote is not
a good citizen, no matter what his
standing in the community. The man
who allows his private business or his
personal convenience to interfere with
his duty at the polls has no right to
complain if men to whose principles
he is opposed gain control of the ma
chinery of government.

REVOLUTIONARY STRIKE IN

From a continuous strike stand
point Butte can hold it's own with
any city in the world. It's a cold day
when someone is not striking in that
city. The mines of that district main
tain immense ~payrolls and, hence, the
field is rich territory for a%gitators.
Apparently the workmen care lit
tie whether they work or not and
striking seems to be the favorite way
of taking a vacation. Many business
men would like to learn the secret Of
living without work as the chronic
strike brigade does in Butte.
Strike agitators in Butte have cost
the workmen millions Of dollars in
lost wages, more per individual than
any mar can hope to make up by
working every day the rest of his life.

STRIKE AT BUTTE
Continued from page ~

"The policy of the I. w. W. all over
the country is to slow down produc-
ton and to produce as little as pos
sible. The workers all over the coun-
try are going along in this line Of pol
icy. l have advocated slowing down
on the job and refuse to speed up for
bonus or under the contract system"
The witness gave details of the To-
cal strike organization and told how
it had been planned to picket the road
leading to the mines in the afternoon
of April q. The witness was asked
where he voted.
Doesn't Believe in Ballot.
81 don't believe in voting" he said.

A. S. Embree, who is secretary of
the local strike organization, and
prominent as an I. w. W., was on the
stand and a number of other members
of the organization have been called
as witnesses.

1t cannot have escaped attention
that all over the country there is a
keen and stirring interest in the re-
publican primaries and conventions,
whereas the interest in the democratic
primaries and conventions is compar-
atively perfunctory. 1t is hardly need
full to add what this signifies. The
meaning simply is that the American
people expect to put a republican in
the White House and rebuke an adj
ministration that will go down to his
tory as wasteful, extravaganza, ineffi-
cient, incompetent and for America

The voters of Valley county are to
be highly commended upon the stand
they have taken in putting over the
bonding of the county for the purpose
of building good roads. While the
money available from this bond will
be nothing more than a good starter
for the road program, it will demon
strate after it has been used what
good roads do for any country. 1t is
safe to predict that after the expen-
diture of this money in the four year
ri a move for more good road
funds will meet with no opposition
from any of the taxpayers.-Nashua

facts are established the problem or selecting business furniture is no longer a problem. From then on 1t Is merely Q, question of ordering whatever is needed with the assurance that the new furniture will harmonize with the old in both line, finish and durability.
 Economy of Standardization.
 The economy in standardized bus1- ness furniture is chiefly in the time saved in selecting and ordering, and the assurance of uniform quality There is. however, the saving in price, from the fact that any product manu- factured in large quantities in standard design and construction offers econo- mics in manufacture which help to re- duce costs.
 Cheapness in furniture is never an, economy As Ruskin has said: "All works of quality must bear price in proportion to the skill. time. expense and risk attending their manufacture. Those things called dear are, when justly estimated. the cheapest. They are attended with much less profit to the craftsman than those things which everyone calls cheap.
 In the southwest furniture of good material and construction is especially desirable The hot, dry atmosphere quickly causes products of inferior quality to crack and warp. In fact all furniture of good quality shipped into this territory demands special care in construction, finish and selection of material, aven to a special kind of glue.
 In the next issue will be discussed the various points to check in judging line of standardized furniture, with special reference to the demands of a hot, dry climate.

BETTER BVSINESS

 As already suggested, with reference to the appearance of an office, it pays to standardize in the selection of busi- ness furniture. There is yet another advantage in standardization; that Of economy.
 The selection of furniture is diff cult in some respects. For every good piece of furniture manufactured there is a cheap imitation. The process Of shopping around each time desk or chair is needed means not only the loss of time involved, but the risk of being saddled with an inferior article.
 X safer method is to thoroughly in vestigate the product of various manu : facturers With the assiStance of an experienced furniture man, who can be relied upon, find the one line of furniture and the one style which will best suit the office in question:.
 After it has been decided that this one style is thoroughly satisfactory in material, construction. and finish, it is necessary to know that it is a stan dard design.
 What Standardization Means
 A standard lire of furniture means that rolI-top, flat-top. or typewriter desks; revolving chairs or arm chairs i; tables. stands-in fact any piece of fur nitlre needed in the office can be se- cured in that one design.
 The small office may start with a desk, table, and a couple of chairs of the standard decided upon Additional pieces of the same line may be added as the business grows. But no matter how large the business becomes, it will always be easy to obtain furni- ture required that matches original equipment in appearance and service, by simply referring to the same style in ordering.
 To be sure that a particular line and style is standard is to know that the manufacturer is responsible, and can be counted upon to continue to turn out furniture of the same design and same standard of quality Once these

the old cars go to. This question,
 however, is easily answered by the fact that there are, in reality, no obsolete Alrs on the market because when one part of a Ford wears out it can be re- placed by a new one and even though some few changes have been made, especially in the body design, all the parts are interchangeable. By this
