and the nightie will have had the duty
raised on it.
Then, of course. the republican
women came along and patiently eNt
planned to the Maine that the
tariffs are on the import prices and
not upon the selling prices here in
America, and when both of them got
through the Maine women will be so
muddled they will probably decide to
vote for the best looking man and let
it go at that.
Mrs. Maud Wood Park of the League
of Women Voters is going to Maine to
defend the direct primary law.
The women are defending the prim-
airy systems. Two arguments are
used by the proponents of the conven-
ton system. They say that in Mis-
souri, the democrats were really de-
feated in their own primaries because
a lot of republicans voted in the wide
open primary for James A. Reed for
senator. securing his nomination. They
also point to the large amounts of
money spent in the Pinchot campaign
for the gubernatorial nomination in
Pennsylvania. Though the women ad-
nit that these are things that should
be remedied, they are not willing to
abandon the direct primary system of
voting but realize that it needs some
safeguards.

Charles A. Hagen
Republican Candidate for
County Treasurer Wishes
to Call Attention to the
Following In Regard to
His Candidacy:

Mr.. Hagen came TO Great Falls
in 1903. assuming the position of
Great Northern agent at Black
Eagle station at the A. c. NJ. Co.
smelter and retained said position
until 1907, when he Joined the Traf-
fic department Of the A. C.. NJ. Co,
was appointed deputy treasurer
under Lee Dennis and when Fred C..
Andretta was elected county treas.
urer in 1919 was appointed Chief
Deputy, which position he now
holds. His experience as Deputy
for four years and as Chief Deputy
for the past four years in the Treas
urer's office should well qualify him
for the office he now seeks at the
primary election August Doth.
The last report of the Etate Ex-
aminer's quotes the records of Cas-
cade County Treasurer's office to
be in Al condition. Mr.. Hagen
states that if he is nominated and
elected he will continue the same
policy as has been practiced and
serve the public in the same prompt
and courteous manner as has been
done in the past.
This is the first time Mr.. Hagen
has asked the voters of Cascade
county to support him and elect
him to office.

DON'T SHOOT TILL CERTAIN,
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Here is a tip for hunters from a
nature writer who sets the rules for
Long Island gunners. Bill is now
speaking:
although ] have never believed il
a good policy to give advice to per-
sons older and more experienced than
myself, / have been requested by q
prominent Long Island conservation
list and sportsman to prepare a set
of rules for hunters who go cunning
on the great stretch of land thiA fall
and winter.
THE following are the rules that
have prepared, which ! believe will
serve the purpose:
Don't fire at anything until you
are certaiNsthat it is a game bird or
animal.
"Nover walk through heavy thick
cts with a loaded gun cooked.
"When you have fired a double
barreled shotgun make certain that
both shells exploded.
when firing at ducks in grassy
places, make sure that there are no
other persons in the vicinity whom
you might accidentally hit.

CHURCHES TO
APPEAL TO
CON-CON

ST. LOUIS, MO-, Nov 2s.-or
December 9Th at 10 A. NJ, there will
gather in the Senate Chamber at JEFF.
ferson City for the first time in the
history of the state a convention Oh
ehurchmen representing every de.
nomination of Professionalism in Mis-.
souri,, numbering $500 churches, the
purpose of the gathering being to
strengthen the appeal heretofore
made to the Constitutional Conven-
ton for the elimination of Section s
of Article IL which prohibits relig-
ious corporations from acquiring and
holding title to really other than for
church edifices, parsonages and GEN.
~eteries.
The Convention will be composed
of from rs to 100 ministers and lay
men who have been selected by the
various denominations as their re-
representatives. and who will come from
every section of the state. 1t will
also be the first gathering together
of official representatives of the de-
nominations of the entire state for
any purpose. The clause sought to
be eliminated is the only one Of it's
kind in the United States, no other
constitution having a similar pro-
vision, attorneys who have investiga-
ted the matter report. 1t is as fol-
lows:
"That no religious corporation can
be established in this state, except
such as man be created under a gen.
eral law for the purpose only Of hold
ing the title to such real estates as
many be prescribed by law for church
edifices, parsonages and cemeteries"
While this provision operates a.
gainst the activities of all church
bodies, Roman Catholic and Jewish,
as well as Protestant, the former is
less concerned about it, it is stated,
to the fact that the Archbis-
hop holds in his name all the church
property, though Catholic leaders
look with favor on some change. The
present clause affects churches, mis-
sionary societies, colleges, brother
or sisterhoods and many other bran
ches of. organized effort.
Among those who will sit in the
Senate Chamber as representatives
Of their churches are: The Rev. w.
E. Cowart and w. W. Fry of Mexico
and Former Senator X. Y. Whitley Of
st. Louis, who formerly lived here
and DR.. A. A. Wallace and a layman
his church.

DISRESPECT
FOR LAW
IS FEARED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-An of.
fetal disclosure of corruption and
nationwide callousness to violations
Of the prohibition law win be made
by the administration soon, coupled
with an appeal to the national con-
science to stand by law enforcement.
This was made known following a
long discussion in Mondays cabinet
meeting of the sole topic: Where is
ignoring of and fragrant breaking of
the prohibition law on a general scale
by otherwise "good citizens" lead
ing the Aremican people in their
sense of respect for law and, govern
ment?
More than the immediate problem
of carrying out the prohibition law,
with which the government is charg-
ed, the cabinet took up the aspect of
the effect this general disrespeet for
the prohibition law was having on
the fiber of the American national
conscience. 1t was frankly admitted
by high spokesman for the admin
istration that the lengthy discussion
by the cabinet led to no definite SOL
ution, The problem will be discussed
further until a solution is found.
At the cabinet meeting it was
frankly conceded that men who
would not commit a crime under any
other statute are now participating
in the illegal traffic of intoxicating
liquors without a qualm. This sit
uation especially is regarded as men
acing from a national standpoint.
If it is necessary to provide larger
appropriations for the enforcement
of prohibition, the President stands
ready to go to congress with such a
request. But that is regarded as a
small matter. compared to awakening
the national conscience on law OBJ
servance.
