THE TWO GREATEST AMERICANS

February is the natal month of the
two men whom history acknowledges
to be the greatest in craftsmanship
whom this country has produced,
George Washington was born on Feb
ruary 22nd, 1882, so that the 22nd of
this month will be the 189th %anniver-
sary of the birth of the first president
of the United States to whom more
than any other mar this country owes
it's good fortune in being started
Alright on the road of republican gov
eminent.
Washington was not only conspicu
Gus for his ability as a military man,
but also for the %soundness of his judg-
ment in all public as well as private
affairs. Without laying claim to the
literary graces of jefferson, the elo-
quence of Adams, or the brilliancy of
Hamilton, his letters, addresses and
rect and dignifed style, and the re-
markable charity of his mind and his
insight make many of his writings as
applicable to the conditions of today
as they were to those of almost two
hundred years ago. He was in truth,
the father of his country, first in
war, first in peoce and first in the
hearts of his c~ountrymen."
AS Washington was the founder If
the nation so was Lincoln its preserv-
err. Abraham Lincoln was born on
February 18th, 1909, so that the 18th
day of this month will be the 111th
anniversary of his birth. Lincoln was
prominently a man of the people.
His parents bequeathed to him nothing
in the way of worldly goods, but they
gave to him what was of vastly more
Importance to himself and to the world
"a mind and character which are
unique in history. Lincoln was a man
of large frame, and, though angular,
he possessed gigantic strength and
endurance. Without the advantages
of schooling, he educated himself and
in the process of overcoming the ob-
stacles he encountered, he developed
a character which, for perfect honesty,
sincerity and charity in the sense Of
love for his fellowman, has not been
surpassed by any other man since the
Savior trod the earth.
Irving Bachelor has written a book,
"a Man for the Ages" which deals
with the life of Lincoln and shows in
an ~absorbingly interesting story the
manner in which he developed from a
diffident, awkward country boy into a
man whom all the world was proud to
honor. The history of the United
States offers no life, which, through
out its course, is so typical of all that
is best in the American character as
that of Abraham Lincoln.

that they believed the anticline which
their biologists located in the Miles
City country extends almost in a
straight line north and west, coming
directly through the Brazil Creek
country.
Enquiries Coming.
Letters are being received daily
from parties in every section of the
state and from out of the state, by
local parties, asking information rel
ative to the local formations. 1t is ex-
pected that when the spring opens up
there will be an influx of oil interested
parties to the Glasgow territory. There
would many be here at present were
it not for the fact that a good many
people of the southern states have
been misinformed about our winter
weather. We're the fact really known
that the weather here at present were
c%ongenial to activity, the whole of the
state of Montana would be overrun
with people seeking an opportunity to
invest in the oil possibilities here.
20 Rigs Before Next Fall.
1t is confidently believed that as
soon as the spring months have ar
rived activities beyond the expecta-
tions of the most sanguine will be
started right here in the Glasgow ter
ritory. The Sinclair Company will
more than likely be among the first to
actually erect rigs here. Greater acti-
witty is being experienced in every sec
ton of Northern Montana at present
than ever before. Already the Ohio
Oil Company are putting down a test
we'll in the Clear Creek field near Chi
nook. Another is to be started at Har-
lem. Three are going down near
Havre. Another is being sunk at Pop
lar. 1t is expected hat 25 rigs will
enter the field north of Shelby in the
spring.
With SO much in her favor it is safe
to predict that before another winter
season has rolled around there will be
more than a score of rigs operating on
the Glasgow structures.

Honest debt and the necessities Of
life will go begging for lack of money,
but the peddler of "white mule" gets
a ready cash sale.
Advertising, so it is said, is pretty
much like running a furnace. You've
got to keep on shoveling coal. Once
you stop stocking. the fire goes out.
Joe Spoofus states that he won't
help much to beat swords into pillow
shares, unless someone will promise
to beat u loafers into pillow hands.
We read in the daily papers of the
officers raiding some places where
there is booze valued all the way from
a few hundred up to a million dollars.
Gee. We never realized there was SO
much of the "joy of life" in the whole
world. Please stand and sing the first
two verses of "How Dry l Am"
Just as soon as everybody stops be-
ing grouchy and cross with you, you
may then as we'll know that you are
very i'll and liable to die. .

Saving a Billion.

Prohibition has saved the people of
the United States a billion dollars in
whiskey and beer not bought and con-
sumed, says the Anti-Saloon league of
America. If this is correct-and we
see no good reason to doubt-the ac-
tual saving has been many times a
billion dollars, for woe and waste al
ways followed in the train of booze.
The league cites one of the great rea-
sons for continuing prohibition. No
other reform has the dollars-and-cents
argument in its favor that prohibition
can cite.-Missoula Sentinel.

What to Avoid.

Two things should be avoided if we
are to have a healthy condition of af-
fairs in Montana. One is to put a tax
on industrial corporations so great
that these industries would be crippled
to a point where we will have more I'M
employment; secondly, we should not
fix taxes that would result in discour-
aging the investment of outside CAPT.

foreign capital for the development of
our great undeveloped resources.-The

TOwnleyism's Decline

But these reforms will be gradually
brought about by means of the opera
ton of farm bureau organizations,
fostered, directed and supported by
the government and the several states;
by cooperative marketing and COM
munity center associations rather than
by self-seeking demagogues of the
Townley sort. That Townley is a NUS
ance can hardly be denied. That he
approaches the dignity of a menace
was pretty decisively proved in several
Northwestern states, including our
own, on the second of last November.

The country is in a humor to accept
Mr.. Willis predictions. MI. Harding's
stock is high. He will start as presi-

as to size in our history. The people
in enormous numbers have pinned their
faith to him. and will not be easily in
fluenced to believe that he is other
than the man of independence and
resolution they voted for in November.
