ONE GOOD TERM DESERVES ANOTHER

1t Is not altogether good policy for a partisan newspaper to
advocate the claims of any certain candidate in the primary cleo
ton but where there has been a decidedly proven competency,
capability and industry displayed it seems to US not out of place
to call attention to a fact which is supported by a record in Of
flee. 1t is not at all to disparage the claims of other candidates
in the republican primary for the office of county attorney that
we call the attention of voters to the statements made by W.. j.
Tighe in his advertisement in this issue. Any claims which he has
made are fully borne out by his record made as assistant county
attorney, and later as county attorney during the few months he
has served in that position by appointment. There is no one who
can question the fact that Mr.. Tighe has made a good prosecutor
in enforcing the law as made. His success has been rather re-
markable in securing convictions in those cases where public SEN
timent is supposed to be somewhat lax and lukewarm toward con-
viction, ample proof that he has a keen faculty in marshaning
evidence. Another thing that speaks well for Mr.. Tighe is that
he has shown little of a disposition toward persecution, a failing
that many public prosecutors show, and which often is the cause of
heavy bills of expense to the commonwealth. Summing up and
taking into consideration that it is poor policy and bad business
trade horses in midstream, it seems to us that the county attor-
office is already in good enough hands as it is.

A SOURCE OF WONDER

We read statistics which go to show that the farmer is get
ting a better price for his product than he did a year ago, but in
following the daily market reports there seems to be a wide dis
crepancy between the actual prices and what the statistcians
claim. The Montana farmer is mainly interested in the price of
wheat, beef and wool: The wheat raiser finds that there has been
q steady decline in the market for the past two months and the
price quoted today Is actually very close to the pre-war level of
1914, perhaps even a little less. Beef is far below the pre-war
price. but the wool men are still pretty well off, though they have
had some bad years In the near past. There does not appear any
very clear reason for the decline in wheat this early in the season,
- the reported crop OF the United States is some millions Of bush
eh short q normal and II is well known that all Of Europe, with
the exceptdon OF Spain, Holland and Germany, win not have near
enough whsat for their own consumption, let alone any for ex-
port kussi: u almost totally dependent upon the United States
Ter 6ood1tuffs, but has no money to pay for it and will receive
what thsr C4 through charity. Austria is in much the same con-
&ft5on. but most Of the other countries needing wheat are able to
by to : n0re Or Les limited extent. England and France can and

these markets should consume practically all the surplus of the
United States.
The present outlook of the wheat market is disappointing and
hard OF explanation and presents features of encouragement to
the farmer VINO has to pay = pretty stiff price for machinery, sup
Plies and wages, much more in fact than he did in pre-war days
However, there is no visible signs of encouragement and no laying
down on the JoD by Montana farmers yet. The raising of wheat is
recognized as considerable of = gamble, one year after another
and few will assert that in Montana, at least, there may have been
big winnings In the game. There is nothing in the present mar
ket that points to any immediate betterment, but no one can pre-
dict with any certainty what wheat will do at any time, and re-
CARELESS of repeated failures and poor markets, the Montana
goes serenely on and will take another chance, as he has in
the past, doing better farming each year, fighting to make up in
what the market takes away in price. It's a great game if
YOU don't weaken.

A petition has been signed by many
local grain growers asking for a SC.
reduction in the grain rate between

farmers haul their grain direct to

From present indications it seems
certain that the Royal Milling COM
company will build an elevator at this
point and make Belt the market for
all the grain grown in the country
adjacent and in the Highwood and
Kibbey countries. The establishment
of the grade for the Burlington rail
road is all that is delaying the con-
struction Of the elevator.

has existed in the voting machine con-

dent OF the Board Of Elections. offered
resolution that the machines be

tion failed 20 pass because Charles z.

Brooklyn and the lst District Of
Quenes. Bronx and Richmond as the
districts TO be covered entirely by the
