Germ operated on like slack and loose
principles.
1t speaks well for the character of
Bozeman's citizens that they so read
ly should have decided to make this
important change, for ordinarily it
takes a long campaign of education
to get a community to make change
of this kind, and frequently it has re-
quIred more than one attempt to
bring this desired result about.
The success of the new plan, nat
urally will depend upon the kind of
manager Bozeman installs in office.
This is not only an important mat
ter to the residents of that city, but
also for the citizens of other munich
paities in Montana.
If Bozeman fails to make the city
manager plan go, through not getting
an efficient manager, this system will
receive a setback as far as this state
Is concerned.
On the other hand, if the Gallatin
valley city can show from the start
good results, then Bozeman will have
set an example that other incorpor-
ated communities will want to follow
withoute undue delay.
Thus the citizens of the fair Gal

responsibility, but that they will

by the last legislature making it the
duty Of the Department Of Agricul-
ture, Labor and Industry to promote
the business of Bookkeeping in Mont
ana and to prescribe such regulat-
ions as may be necessary to eradicate
prevent or control the introduction
and dissemination of American or
European foul broods of bees, arrange
ments have been made by Com
missioner Chester G.. Davis for a
series of meetings to be held with
Montana bee-keepers in 16 COM

ten July 20, at the Apiary of Chris
Buitenhof.
B. ]. Kleinhesselink Of Hardin, for
sixteen years a bee-keeper in this
state, will have charge of the meet
ings. The main object Of the meet
ings will be the detection Of diseases
among bees. and should such disease
be found, directions for its control
and eradication will be given and
wherever possible, practical demon
strations will be made. In localities
where disease does not exist, such
subjects as queen rearing, requiem
ing, wintering and prevention OF
swarming will be considered. The
programs will be profitable to the
small as well as to the larger
producers of honey.

HARDING REQUEST STARTS VIGOROUS
 FIGHT IN SENATE
Plea for Ratification of Co., Iombian Treaty Brings First Open Differences Between
 Republicans
By Associated Press

Washington, March 9.-A special mes sage sent by President Harding to the Senate today asking early ratification of the $25,000,000 treaty with Colombia inn medately started a vigorous controversy with considerable group of republi- cans aligned in the discussion. It was the new executives first congressional message and developed the first open df- ference between Senate republicans. The communication was brief and was under stood to have recommended ratification of the long delayed treaty, principally on the ground that such action would irI- prove relations between the United States and Colombia and have beneficial effect and all of Latin America. Publication of the message. read in an executive session of the Senate, was deferred.
 OBJECTIONS NUMEROUS
 Immediate action on the treaty at the present session of the Senate was urged by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, re- publican floor leader, but objections came from both republicans and demo- crats, and the matter went over until tomorrow, together with a proposal to discuss the treaty in open session.
 Postponement of the treaty's considera- ton until the April session of Congress appeared probable. Leaders among ad- vocates and opponents of the treaty started negotiations, and tomorrow it was hoped that an agreement might be reached which would defer consideration until next month. limit debate after the Senate reassembles in April and fix q definite date for final vote. If the treaty is set aside until the April session, leaders tonight said that the extra Sen ate sesion might terminate next Satur- day.
 Should the Senate proceed at once with the treaty, it was predicted generally that the extra session would continue right into the April session.
 Differences over the treaty appeared principally among republicans. Most or the democratic senators were reported to favor ratification of the treaty which the Wilson administration negotiated in 1914 Prominent among reputed opponents were Borah, Idaho; Kenyon, Iowa; Kellogg, Minnesota; Lenroot. Wisconsin; Johnson, California, and Nelson, Minnesota Most of the newly elected republican senators were counted as supporters of the treaty.

 Nocolai Avskentieff president of the committed told the Associated Press today that the committee, as result of direct secret communication estab- lfshed with the interior of Russia through Finland, was in a position to state that the present movement was entirely different from all previous at tacks against the bolshevists.

Avskentieff. that the revolution now going on Is one or 'ganized by the people or Russia and that it differs in every way from the outbreaks of Wrangel, Kolehak, Deni- Kline and Yudenitch It is a declara- tion of the resentment of the people of Russia against bolshevism. The pres ent phase of it may be put down by the brutal force of the bolsheviki, but nationwide revolution is sure to come in April or May. We believe this is the beginning of the end of holshevism
 ''The executive committee decided last January that bolshevism can be defeated only from within and not with expeditions such as that of General Wrangel. The presen, revolution proves the wisdom of our decision. The anti bolshevik movement will help with propaganda supplies of food and similar aid, but no military force will ever be attempted again.
 Our present desire is to rush food to the area temporarily freed from the bolsheviki. We hope the Amer ican Red Cross will give us the sup plies it has available in northeast Flu rope.
