the address of former Senator Albert

night in opening the republican cam

the auspices of the Detroit Republican
Club.
=. It Is established that the major

Mr.. Wilson signed and brought back
to America the covenant of the league

covenant is not a treaty. but, instead,
the constitution of a new government
which the President has no more
power to make than he has to pro-

SILK MEN TO SAIL FOR
JAPAN AND CHINA FEB. 21
Will Seek Remedy for the Excess
sive Speculation in Raw
Material.

NEW YORK, January 30-A COM
mission to seek a remedy for the ex-
cessive speculation in raw silk" will
sail from San Francisco February 81
for Japan and China. it is learned
here. The commission was selected
by leading American silk manufac-
turers. who met in S eret session here
last night.
The present price of $3.50 a pound
is declared unprecedented and pro-
hibitive." The normal rate had been
s3S5 a pound.
Charles Cheney. president of the
Silk Association of America, will head
the commission of five or six mem
bers. it was learned. Besides making
special inquiry into raw silk specula-
ton on Japanese bourses, they will
ascertain what can be done to encour-
age silk growing in China.
Imports of raw silk have been very
large in the last eleven months, and
so much of it is in storage in this
country that insurance companies are
reported to be hesitating to under
write more policies on it because of
the vast amount of money already
tied up.
Most of the speculation in raw silk
has been going on in Japan, but it
has been financed largely from New
York. it was stated. Manufacturers
claim that prices are so high now that
they are unable to sell their goods at
a profit after buying it.

THE COST OF
INCONPETENCY

Through an error in the office of
the Clerk & Recorder, c. w. Kampfer,
the entire tax levy for School District
No. 1 was figured at 16 mills instead
of the correct amount of 13 mills. Had
this error not been discovered by a
person not an emplOye of the county
the taxpayers of school District No.
One would have paid about $7441.O6
more taxes into the Treasurer's office
than the legal amount. What dispOsi-
ton would have been made of this
money? After discovery of this err
rOr, the entire tax levy for School
District No. One must be refigured
and the Overcharge refunded to the
taxpayer by the Treasurer at the time
of payment of the taxes.
How much will this additional work
in the Clerk and Recorders office and
Treasurer's office cost at 75c per
hour?
In School District No. Two the levy
was dt liSlcdu vi II
mills. This error costs that school
district approximately $21O6.5O. Are
additional notices going to be sent out
to the taxpayers and this money col
lected or will the youth of that district
be deprived of proper educational fa-
cilities because of an error made by
incompetent officials?
On the State tax assessment, the
levy for the 1911 State Bond sinking
fund is shown as and figured at. Y, mill
instead of u mill, the correct amount.
This error would have cost the taxpay-
ers of this county $249O.50. Would
the entire $4981.00 have been RENTED
to the state for this fund or would only
$2490.50, the correct amount, been re-
mitted? How would you have handled

AT his own
INVITATION

On the notices being mailed to the
taxpayers of Valley County Mr.. Tur-
ner states he is your hired man and in
vites criticism. We will accommodate
him.

ty named H. w. w. Phillips, allowed
his taxes on Lot Is, Blk % Hoffman

AZ to become delinquent. In Jan. 1920
this man with his attorney appeared
at the County Treasurer's office and
stated he desired to pay his taxes on
his ranch property but did not want
to pay the back taxes on the Glasgow
city Property. Mr.. Turner advised
him it would take some time to segre-
gate the amounts so the taxpayer left
signed blank check with Mr.. Turner
to fill in the proper amount and mail
him the tax receipt.
The records in the County Treasur-
er's office show that instead of seq
regating the city property from the
ranch property the tax receipt was
made up for the full amount, the de-
scription of the city property being
left off the receipt and the amount of
the municipal tax due the city of
Glasgow was included in the General
County fund. This money has never
been remitted to the City Treasurer of
Glasgow and the records in the City
office show that the lot has been sold
for taxes.
This taxpayers attorneys, Dignan
& Shea were notified by the County
Auditor that their client had been
over charged. Why did they not pro-
tect their clients interests? Mr.. Dig
nan is the Nonpartisan candidate for
Judge and Mr.. Turner is the NOnparti-
san candidate for Treasurer. Is that
the reason?
Why did you falsify your accounts
in the above manner, Mr.. Turner?

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL

President E. O. Sisson of the State
University spent Monday in Glasgow
in the interests of the University and
of Initiative Measures 18 and 10. Dur
ing the day he delivered three address
ses to large and appreciative audiences.
President Sisson impressed every one
he met with his sincerity and enthu-
siasm for the cause of education. Hav-
ing lectured in all parts of the state
during the past three months, he feels
confident that the verdict of the peo-
pie will be given in favor of the Uni
versity Measures on November second.
The main statements of his address
ses were:
"The real issue of the University In
itiative measures is whether we shall
produce or import our best brains. At
the present time we do import the
great majority of our school teachers,
most of our engineers, lawyers, and
agricultural experts. The University
appeals not as a begger for aims, but
as an agent for means to perform it's
task. The University with it's four
institutions is yours or else it is an
orphan or waif. We at the Uni
versity are charged with the training
of two thousand of your choicest sons
and daughters from every corner of

COMING PICTURE
FULL OF THRILLS

Critics who have had an opportun-
ity to obtain pre-release view Of the
latest Universal Jewel production,
"The Virgin of Stamboul," starring
Priscilla Dean, have been unstinted in
their praise of this picturesque photo
drama which is announced for Oct. 27-
% at the Orpheum theatre.
The story was written especially
for Priscilla Dean by H. H. Van Loan,
and it lis said that he kept her vision
before him constantly during the
months he was at work on this color
full romance, the scenes of which are
laid in Stamboul, the wickedest city
in the world. The result is from all
accounts, that Van Loan has supplied
Miss Dean with role that permits
her to exercise the thousand and one
phases of her magnetic art.
The central figure in "The Virgin
of Stamboul" is Sari, a begger girl on
the streets of the Turkish city, wild
as an Arabian steed, and according 70
the Moslem creed, with a soul as the
filth in the streets. While secreted in
the mosque, whittier she has gone
against the law, to pray that her soul
may be cleansed, she is witness to a
brutal crime and become embroiled in
chain Of circumstances as fantastic
as the Arabian Nights.
Sari's meeting with the young
American commander of the Black
Horse Troop, composed of the scum
of Asia, her wooing by the powerful
sheik, her Imprisonment in and escape
from the harem, her wild ride across
the desert at the head of the untamed
cavalry-all are but a few incidents
from a story that is alive with tense
drama and stirring situations.
The photodrama has been given q
sumptuous production by Tod Brown
ing and the principal characters are
portrayed by Miss Dean, Wheeler Oak
man, Wallace Beery, E. A. Warren,
Edward Burns, Eugene Forde, Ethel
Richie, Nigel de Brullier and Yvette
Mitchell.

the problems presented in civil law
in this District he is thoroughly famil-
lar.
1t is necessary for the Judge to
thoroughly know all of the questions
of law which may arise in the course
of trials. Mr.. Borton has so thorough
ly familiarized himself with these rules
and is so fair in his conduct of litiga-
ton and so able in the application of
legal principles to the facts as to
safeguard the trial of cases against
errors. 1t is safe to predict that if he
is elected Judge the cases tried be-
fore him will not be reversed by the
Supreme Court.
His thoroughly trained legal mind,
knowledge of Court procedure, and
broad experience, coupled with his we'll
known trait of standing for what he
believes is right and his exceptional
judicial temperament insure fair treat
ment to all litigents, witnesses and
jurors who appear in his Court. He
was nominated to the office without
any opposition. This shows that he
stands as we'll in Phillips County as
he does in Valley.
Mr.. Boron's family consists of Mrs.
Borton and three sons; Carl, Jr., a
Civil Engineer, residing at Bozeman;
Albert, a graduate of Montana State
College at RoSemsn, and Hugh who is

IRVIN'S SPEECH w..
Than QUOTED---ht.
State Treasurer Was Present and
: Heard the Squaw Man at Bill
lings Give Speech

L. S. Irwin, the blatant squaw
man from the Blackfeet reservation,
candidate for attorney general on the
Nonpartisan league ticket, made
speech in Billings two weeks ago in
which he denounced the state con-
stitution as "rotten" and advised that
it should be scrapped.
A few days ago Irwin was in Great
Falls and denied in a very weak
manner to the Tribune that he had
made such statements. To the edi-
tor of the Great Falls Call he stated
that the report was "a lie."
H. L. Hart, state treasurer, was
in Billings and heard Irwin. He was
in Lewistown, Tuesday, and this is
what he says concerning Irvin's
harangue:
"I was present when Mr.. Irwin
made the attack upon the constitu-
tion and advised throwing it away"
said Mr.. Hart today, "and it was
more raw even than published in the
i was III udu
been attending the fair, and I and
several friends walked down to the
meeting addressed by Irwin. The
mas has a strong voice and there
was no trouble hearing him. And
there was no question as to his wild
assertions and rabid denunciations of
practically everything in the way of
constitutional rights. I can bring at
least half dozen reputable citizens
who were present to deny the denial
of Mr.. Irwin made here.
Furthermore, although I did not
hear it, was told by several we'll
known Montana citizens who were
present and heard him, that at
Roundup, in his talk Mr.. Irwin advo-
Gated the soviet government and de-
clared that soviet government
meant the government put into effect
by the men of the continental congress
in 1776. That it had been changed
by the plutocrats, and that sovietism
meant only the republic of Wash
ington back again.
81 see no reason ior denial by Mr..
Irwin Of any Of his reckless and un-
fortunate statements, unless it is a
desire to break into the newspapers
he is making them from every
platform in the state, unless he has
toned down within the last week,
and l haven't any idea that he has.
l do not know Mr.. Irwin, but l have
heard him and heard of him."
