New Tariff Bill Only Opposed BY

which would become the magma char
ia for the perpetuation of our Amer
lean standards of living and be the
constitution of a uniform and univer-
sal prosperity" was the goal which the
Republican members of the house
ways and means committee set for
themselves in drafting the admins
tration's permanent tariff bill, says
a report filed with the house Wednes
day by Chairman Fordney. With the
report the bill was formally present
ed in the same form it was intro
duced last week.
The report was unsigned but Mr..
Fordney said he understood all Re-
publican members of the committee
except Representative Frear of Wis
consin We're ready to affix their names
to it. Mr.. Frear made public Tuesday
night a minority statement attacking
the dye control and other provisions
Democratic members of the com
mittee met late Wednesday to draft a
minority report, which probably will
be presented Thursday.
| Republican leaders will seek at a
conference of all Republican members
Wednesday night to reach an agree
ment as to procedure and methods of
handling the bill in the house.
Democratic Leader Objects.
When Chairman Fordney offered
the report, Representative Garrett of
Tennessee, acting Democratic leader,
objected to its presentation on calen-
dar Wednesday, under the house rules,
but Speaker Gillett permitted the re-
port to be filed. Formal considera
tion of the bill will begin Thursday
under present plans of Republican
! leaders.
The report as presented by Chair
man Fordney said the committee mem
bers in drafting the bill We're govern
ed by desire to encourage American
industry without, at the same time
saddling upon the American consumer
any unnecessary burden.
| Discussing protection against pos
sible inroads by German competitors,
the report said the Germans had open
to them only the American markets in
to which they could go with methods
"as ruthless and as destructive" as
ever had been known in commerce.

NORTH and SOUTH
TRAIL is PLANNED
Chamber of Commerce Starts Organi-
zatiOn of Another Road AsOscia-
tiOn-Park Improved.

Judge Hurley, ]. L. Truscott, J. w.
Wedum, Mayor Otto M. Christinson,
Robert Young, President Alderman of
the Chamber of Commerce, DR.. M. D.
Hoyt and S. C. Small, constituting the
board of directors of the Chamber of
Commerce, decided, at meeting held
last Friday, to organize a trail as
sociation for the promotion and i'm
provement of line of road connect
ing the central west directly with Can
ada and its scenery and oil fields, by
a route through Glasgow, Miles City
and Jordan, crossing the Missouri riv-
er at Lismas.
Upon invitation by President Ac-
herman Mr. Reeder briefly explained
the needs for such a road as under
stood by many, and after some discus
sion a motion, made by Mr.. Small was
adopted, authorizing the secretary to
invite representatives from Jordan,
Miles City and Canadian cities, to
meet at Glasgow and organize such
an association.
This is as far as the movement can
be advanced at present. Miss Halla-
day, acting secretary of the Chamber,
has written to the Commercial clubs
of the cities named asking their ad-
vice as to the date for the meeting;
when these are answered the time will
be set, and all cities and commercial
clubs along the proposed line of the
new trail, will be invited to send dele
gates to Glasgow for the preliminary
meeting. 1t has been suggested that
the meeting be held the first week in
August.
The advantages of the different
towns along the line will be many,
Glasgow being so stragetically situat-
ed as to receive perhaps as much bene-
fit from the new road as any of the
others. 1t will have advantages over
other proposed north and south lines
in the crossing of the Missouri, the
new county power ferry at Lismas.
be ing the best operated any where
in the state. Being the logical north
and south route, it is also pointed out
that once the road is marked and i'm
proved, the traffic will demand a
bridge over the river where the
ferry now plies, and this development
will be looked after and guarded by
the Glasgow Chamber.
Some connection with the Yellow
stone trail is desired by many tourists
over it, with the Roosevelt highway
and the direct northern route it af.
fords through this road from Miles
City will make the new route fav.
ored. The Canadian oil fields are
also now attracting attention anc
this route will afford direct trave
from the southeast and south to the
fields of both Montana and the Brit
ish possessions. 1t is urged for these
and many other reasons that the in
fluence of both the Yellowstone ant
the Roosevelt road associations
should be in favor of the new route
AS to whether the new line will enc
at Miles City, and there connect
with other trails, or proceed further
is a matter that will be left to the
meeting at which Miles City will be
represented, but it is designed for the
road to give the central west direc1
route to the northwest over good roads
connecting up the park and southern
Canada, with easy and convenlen

BOOSTING A TOWN WITH .
LOCAL ADVERTISING

1t is noted that big advertisers
all over the country are enlarging
their appropriations for news pa
per advertising and are cutting
down appropriations for other
kAds.
And this is not mere talk. 1t
is the solid, concrete truth, based
upon actual figures given out by
the cOuntry's largest advertisers
in various lines of business.
Business boosters in number
of smaller Georgia communities,
says the Lagrange (Ga.) Report
er, have financed home advertising
campaigns and purchased page
spaces in local newspapers, setting
forth business advantages of their
towns and contributing territory
and there have been good results
in every instance.
That is the way to make business
quicken its pace to the small town
capitals; it's the "whooping-it-up
way" and it puts new life and
spirit in the people.
Because of this business boost
ing spirit, the Marietta (Ga.)
Journal says that ''it looks like
matters may soon get back to
normal"
And that is not only speaking
for one section, but for all.
There is no better sign of a
towns business prosperity than
notices in its local newspapers di-
recting attention to new advertis-
ing.
Advertising puts a town on the
map, and keeps it there.

BOY HURT AS BICYCLE
COLLIDES WITH AUTO

Vernon Johnson, the II year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. C. Johnson of
Nashua, was quite badly injured on
the Fourth when the bicycle, which
he was riding, collided with a car at
the Milk River Bank corner, the car
wrecking his machine and running
over him.
There We're a number of cars at the
corner, and passing at the time of the
accident, and in attempting to run
his wheel through them, Vernon ran
into one car while trying to get out
of the way of another. 1t seems that
no one was particularly to blame.
The injured boy was taken at first
to a hospital but subsequently moved
to his parents home, on the north
side. He was seriously wounded in
the leg and badly shaken up, but his
physician reports that he will recov-
er without being lamed or manned.
The outcome is considered fortunate
under the circumstances.

COUNTY'S CROP
PROSPECTS fine
GrasshOppers Imaginary-Hail Losses
Light-General Prospects Best
County Ever Had.

County Agent Stebbins, who has
been in the country every day this
week, reported yesterday that crop
conditions were better, and the out
look for large yield brighter, than
he has ever seen before in the county.
He believes the crop will be a large
one and of good quality.
He says that Imagination and sensa-
tional reports from neighbors, has
created most of the grasshopper dam
age. In other words his observation
shows that only fifty acres in all, have
been damaged by insect pests in the
county up to date. Less than $100
has been spent by the county for
poison and he thinks this will cover
the season, as the hoppers seem to
be growing less in number, owing to
the attacks of a certain fly and other
natural causes.
Mr.. Stebbins also went through
some of the fields said to have been
damaged 80 per cent by hail, and he
says that probably 25 per cent will
cover the loss; that the area of the
hail was small.

GLASGOW MILLS
AGAIN RUNNING

The Glasgow mills are again run
ming, the demand for their product be-
ing on the increase.
The little advertising campaign put
on by the mill, now appearing in these
columns, shows that this company is
one of the biggest assets that Glas-
gov has. The ad contained the state
ment last week that this institution
had paid out in money in Glasgow
in less than five years, more than
two million dollars. Such an insti-
tuition is benefit to every man, wom-
an and child in the town, and as our
leading manufacturing industry,
should receive the united support of
Glasgow people.
Glasgow people are asked to think
it over, and determine whether they
are supporting the institutions, and
pushing the trade, that will best help
Glasgow.

SEVERAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS
WILL ISSUE FUNDING BONDS

School districts Numbers 1, l3, 7
and nine and other rural districts in
the county, have taken, or are about
to take, advantage of the act of the
last legislature, which enables them to
issue bonds with the proceeds of which
to pay outstanding warrants, and to
pay running expenses.
A letter received by Miss Forster,
county superintendent from Miss May
Trumper, state superintendent, states
that the State Land Board will take
100000 of these bonds, thus afford
ing market for the bonds which are
not offered in the open market for this
class of securities at this time.
Bonding of the different districts
and taking up outstanding warrants
should be a material help to the gen.
eral local financial condition and
speedy action is depended on in most
cases.
