THE FRUITS OF BOLSHEvISM.

Every male from 16 to so and ev-
cry female from 16 to As must now
register for work in Russia. Failure
to register renders delinquents liable
to internment in concentration camps.
Workers will be assigned chiefly to
mines, railroad construction work, iron
and steel mills.
This experiment will be watched
eagerly by all nations. 1t is a natur-
al evolution of Russia's principles.
Bolshevism could wreck industry and
live on accumulated savings of others
for a while but the day of reckoning
has come and it is work.or starve.

DEMONSTRATION AGENT
TO ARRIVE MAY 18TH
Coulson Wright Appointed to Take
Charge of Farm Demonstration
Work on Milk River Project.

Mr.. Coulson Wright, who was re-
for the Milk River project, is expect
his duties. Mr.. Wright comes from
Salt Lake and will spend a few days
at the Huntley project before report
ing to Mr.. Stratton, project manag-
er of the Milk River irrigation project.
Mr.. Wright is a young man of con-
siderable experience in irrigation
work. His line of activities will be
similar to those of the county agent
and his particular duties will consist
of assisting the farmers of the project
in all of their irrigation problems. He
will at all times be at the disposal of
the farmers of the local project and
will be prepared to cooperate in any
way toward the betterment of condi-
tions.
The local chamber of m has
been working on the appointment of
a demonstration agent since early last
fall and during the visit Of Prof. A.
G. Cooley, agriculturist in charge Of
reclamation demonstrations on irriga-
ton projects, brought to his attention
the need of such an agent on this
unit. The secretary accompanied Mr..
Cooley over the entire project and
after the trip the chamber was in
formed of the willingness of Mr.. Cool
ey to recommend the appointment of
the demonstration agent.
The local chamber also assisted in
bringing before congress the neces-
sity of charging the irrigation ap-
preparation to its original figure aft
er the house of representatives had
reduced it by some $4,000.

The petitions for the other towns and
outlying districts have been forwarded

titled "The Open Road to Greater
America" has been secured by the
Northern Development association
from the Roosevelt Highway Nation
al association and will be shown at
the Orpheum theatre in the near flu

The film is a very interesting one
and points out most emphatically the
value of good roads to both the bust
ness man and the farmer, emphasiz-
ing particularly the value to the farm
er. 1t is also designed to stimulate
interest in the Roosevelt Highway

the big highway scheme plan to make

THE FAILURE OF SOCIALISM
IN PRACTICE.

1t is quite natural that we should
point to the present bolshevik expert
ment in Russia when socialism and
communism are preached to US, for
nowhere else have we ever seen So
cialism in practice on a national
scale. 1t may be argued that this is
not the socialism of theory, but to
that argument we reply that while
theoretical socialism may have its at
tractive features, it can not work out
in practice. Nor can the socialists
successfully contend that the Lenine-
Trotzki regime is not a socialistic one,
for it appears to have the unqualified

VISITING MEMBERS
ARE
BY LOCAL o. E. S

On Monday evening the Eastern
Star chapter enjoyed a special SEES
sion, entertaining as their guests for
the evening the Hinsdale chapter, and
a number of members of the Saco
chapter. A splendid banquet was SER
we'd at 7 o'clock, at which over one
hundred were seated. Following the
banquet, the regular meeting of the
chapter was held, and a class of six
initiated into the order. A program
was then rendered which consisted
of two readings by Miss Hazel Hurd,
which were much appreciated, and sew
eral beautiful violin and piano selec-
lions by the Misses Margaret and
Eva Anderson, whose unusual musical
ability is a matter of pride to the
people of glasgow.

The decent newspapers of Montana
have refrained from fixing the actual
responsibility for the shooting at
Butte, since that is a matter for Of
fetal investigation. The only plain,
outstanding fact is that there would
have been no shooting at all, if the
|. w. w. strikers to the number OF
300 had not gathered to interfere with
miners who desired to work but were
prevented from doing SO. The first
shot, it has been stated, came from
a window in a boarding house neal the
Never Sweat mine. Immediately the
shooting became general in a 'roWd
of strikers, pickets, mine guards and
peace officers. That is about all that
has been disclosed. The exa%ggerations
and hysteria have all come from the
foul, radical u]tterances of the |. w.
w. press. To say that "the blood of
innocent men, massacred by gunner,
cries to heaven against the outrage"
is a criminal appeal to the worst HUI
mar passions, since, until the facts are
fully shown by an authorized investi-
cation, it will be impossible to ascer-
tain the actual sources of responsible
ity. We think there are enough law
abiding people in Montana to main
tain law and order at any cost, even
though the cost may be great, as the
journalistic firebrands of Russian boil
shevism transplanted to Butte and
Missoula may find out.-Missoulian.

OF MISS
E

Word has been received from Miss
Gertrude Beede, who has been in the
Great Falls hospital for several weeks
past, hat her condition is unimproved
but that the doctors in charge have
hopes of locating the seat of trouble.
Miss Beede began to experience con-
siderable difficulty with her eyes sev-
eral weeks ago and when she left
Glasgow for the hospital in Great
Falls, her condition was known to be
quite serious. Her many Glasgow
friends are hoping for a speedy re-
covery.

approval of the leading socialists of
this country.
The b~olshevists are socialists and
| communists per Sc. For years and
J generations they have preached social
ism, interspersing it with bomb-throw-
ing, and when they secured the reins
of government and the whole empire
was in their hands, their first thoughts
were of plumber and pillage. The
leaders sold out for German gold and
their followers Sell to cutting n an
others threats over the pillaged loot.
And that is socialism. Not social
ism as to theory and doctrine, but
socialism as to practice and actual
results.
Overthrow all government in any
country, including u own, and the
same results would be attained. Prob
ably the people of the United States,
being more enlightened and accus-
toned to the laws of popular govern
ment than those of Russia, would not
go tc the extremes the bolshevlki
have, but human nature is pretty
much the same wherever you find it,
and it is pre-eminently selfish.
Taking them by and large, no n
class of people has any more virtues
than another, and often when we
"throw the ~rascals out" and put in
a new set, they soon develop the same
symptoms of rascality as those which
we found in their predecessors.
A mere equitable distribution of
wealth and property may be desirable
and necessary, but th~roat-cutting and
mountaineering are not the proper
means of bringing it about. We are
not overburdened with sympathy or
admiration for autocratic monarchs,
but if they are to be thrown into the
discard, some ether properly constitut-
ed form of government is necessary
to society the world over, and without
it anarchy and chaos must result

GIRLS PICKET
|. At EMBASSY
Garry Banners Condemning
EngIand's Domination of the
Irish Republic.

Picketing the British embassy here
was the tactics adopted by the dele
CATION of American women sympa-
thizers for the Irish Republic on the
second day of their campaign to have
Congress abrogate all treaties with
Great Britain until the Sim Fein gov
ernment is recognized.
At 1915 this morning Mrs. James
Walsh and Mrs. Harry Walker. both
of New York, began picketing the
embassy. Mrs. Walsh carried a ban
ner inscribed: England: American
women condemn your reign of terror
in the Irish Republic"
Mrs. Walkers banner bore the
legend: "America cannot continue re-
lations with an England ruled by
assassins."
Women volunteers from all sections
of the country gathered at the Hotel
Lafayette this morning to aid In the
picketing. 1t is planned to keep two
pickets constantly in front of the en-
bassy throughout the day. The pick
cts will be relieved every hour.
Captain Doyle and another police
officer, having been informed of the
proposed picketing, were at the en-
bassy but did not interfere. A bat
terry of newspaper men and photog-
raphers were gathered.
Except for a couple OF marines,
who leaned from a window and
watched them, occupants of the en-
bassy paid no attention to the pick
cts. Pedestrians frequently stopped
and talked with the women, in most
cases encouragingly A man and
woman, who declined to give their
names, who passed down Connecti-
cut avenue when the first pickets be-
gan their march. urged Captain Doyle
to stop them. Doyle replied that he
could not do so as they were not

kept moving and at least five feet
