HOW IRIS DONE UP NORTH

Probably quite a few of those who buy the surrepttIous JOY
juice think they are still getting the Canadian product, but the
chances are that regardless of the label, they are getting Just plain
home grown moonshine of the most doubtful and depraved qualty-
The fact is that practically no Canadian liquors are coming INTO
Montana from the northern provinces owing TO the strict Workings
of the regulations regarding liquor in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
Illicit imports are made from British Columbia, 1t Is said, but little
of that reaches Montana, as it is mostly absorbed lii the arid areas
of Washington and Idaho. There is of course, some Illicit buying
by smugglers in the dry provinces but the volume is not large and
is not a drop in the bucket so far as relieving the drouth in Mon
tana.
The drys have not yet realized their entire hopes of the Vol
stead act, but the vets are not particularly jubilant either, when
they consider the price they have to pay for more than question
able spirits. The situation doesn't appeal greatly to the taxpayer
either, as he remembers that in former years the revenue went a
long way toward balancing the evils of the liquor business.
Canada does several things in a way that we cannot help but
approve, or at least the results seem to show in a way that merits
some commentator. In Alberta and Saskatchewan there are no
saloons, but liquors are available to the citizen of good standing by
a simple process. He goes to the government store" at any time
between 9 in the morning and 5 o'clock in the afternoon, signs a
certificate declaring his identity and residence, pays a fee of fifty
cents, and is then entitled to buy a limited quantity of liquors. A
nonresident must pay a fee of five dollars. Each customer is en-
titled to one certificate a day There are no saloons, nor is liquor
allowed to be served in hotels.
The chronic booze-fighter has a hard time of it. A card bear
ing the customers name is made out and for each lapse from
sobriety the card is punched. Three punch marks lets him out In
the matter of the booze privilege and under the law he gets no
more.
This is the law in operation for the past few months in the
provinces named and so far appears to work much better for all
concerned than the "bone-dry" regime of the States. The Cana
dian government makes a good profit on what traffic there is and
the saloon evil and much drunkenness is eliminated.

THE TWO GREAT CHARITIES

There are two great causes that are bound by no limitations of
creed or dogmas and further have little care for national bound
aries. Wherever suffering and misery hold sway, the Red Cross
and the Salvation Army are found in organized force, battling for
relief of the distressed. They are always in the front line trenches
when trouble comes without enquiry or investigation of culpabiL-
il. Poverty and suffering is the handspring of their existence
nothing else matters and all their resources are given to relieve it
wherever found. Their appeal for aid is so widespread that
the burden of support is almost negligible. One single dollar from
the Individual is a membership fee in the American Red Cross
The mere honor of being a part of this great organization is surely
worth many times the sacrifice that this dollar represents.
The Red Cross Roll Call is now on. 1t started the same day.
that the great conference for limitation Of armament began. What
ever the outcome of the latter, the warfare against misery caused
by accident, flood, famine or pestilince will never become extinct
No human agency can devise schemes for their prevention, but the
Salvation Army and the Red Cross can and do do their utmost to
relieve the distress in the wake of all disasters, whatever the
cause. We must support them, for it may be our turn next to call
on them for help We have already given to the Salvation Army,
and another dollar given freely to the Red Cross will be the dis
charging of a duty and an ease to the conscience that all should
possess during the coming Thanksgiving week. The dollar is the
minimum for a membership. Give more if you like. 1t will be
gratefully accepted.

FEDERAL FARM LOANS ARE
NOT HANDOUTS" RIDDICk

Congressman Carl w. Riddick has
received a report from the war finance
corporation that the Montana agency
has already applications for loans ag-
gregating 81, SOC, 900, although the
final arrangements have been complet-
ed only a few days. Information is
that another large quantity viii be
coming along within a few days. 1t
is expected that from now on the Mon
tana committee will be sending in
completed applications with fair speed.
Referring to the criticism that there
is too much red tape and complaints
about the security and interest rates,
Congressman Riddick says that these
complaints can only come from a mis-
understanding Of the purposes Of the
law governing this activity. This is
not a government handout,v but on
the other hand is a sound financial
plan 20 place millions of cash imme-
diately available for stock raising and
farming operations in Montana under
regulations that will make certain that
the security is of the character ard.
sufficient, so that the bonds can be
sold on the eastern market. To expe-
dite the relief. and to save costs, the
money is distributed through the var
ious banks and loan agencies, which
under the law are not permitted to coll
lect more than 2 per cent for their ser
vices and the guarantees required of
them.

CANNED HORSE

Again a movement is on foot to use the vast number of value
less range horses said TO be running wild and useless on Montana
ranges, according to q statement made recently by the state veter-
marian. The scheme is said to be backed by American capital, but
the product is destined for European consumption. 1t is an old
scheme that pops up whenever horses appear to be a drug on the
market. but so far has never materalzed into actual realization as
outlined, though according to our recollection it had a brief trial
In a limited way and with rather disastrous results to the promo
tors some 25 or 80 years ago.
AT that time there were a couple of enterprising butchers in
Belt whose attention was attracted strongly to the fact that while
they had to pay from $25 to $40 for a fat steer there were hun
dreds of cayuses running on the ranges that the owners were glad
to get rid of at most any old price. 1t was a fact that about that
time a big bunch of horses were sold at Arlington for So per head.
The enterprising meat market men observed these things, and not
long afterward were convicted of selling horse meat over the block
without taking the trouble to label it as such. The scheme Ian
guished after that, especially as horses soon rose in value sufficient
to discourage further attempts to get rich quick along those lines
