Dakota senator objected to imme.
date action. He did not altogether
like it, apparently.
How republican newspapers could
be interested in preserving extor-
tionate profits through opposing
a high tariff bill, and democratic
papers not share in these alleged
extortionate profits, we are unable
to understand. In fact we do not
see how newspapers and depart
ment stores can have any more
interest in a high tariff or low
tariff than any other business.
Newspapers can only prosper in a
financial way when the communi-
ties in which they circulate pros
per. Their interest in the pending
tariff is the interest of the public
they serve Most newspapers have
lost money during the last two
years when a republican congress
has been tinkering with legislation,
and that goes for both republican
and democratic papers. The same
statement applies to department
stores. AS to the importing houses
we don't know much about them,
but as they are in no way patrons
of newspapers it takes a distorted
vision to see any possibility of a
conspiracy between importers and
newspapers for the profit of i'm
porters.
The North Dakota senator must
have lost his head. At any rate,
having made such charges against
the republican newspapers, his own
party supporters, he should certain
ly be called on to prove his case.
But he did not seem to be grateful
to our Montana senator for trying
to help him get the proof. W.
have an idea that the senator has
discovered a mares nest, and
knows it for what it is.

Hoppers Appearing
In East Montana

Special to The Tribune.
Miles City. June 15.-That grass
hoppers are appearing in large num-
bers in the Cherry Creek district
north of Terry. is the information
brought into the city by Robert
Weigum. The hoppers are not large
enough to do any amount Of damage
at the present time, he says. They
seem to be small and the rapid growth
of grains will probably prove to be
less attractive and is beating them to
maturity.
Mr.. Weigum has SIS acres of land
planted to flax. which he says is up,
showing a healthy growth. and gives
promise of q yield much greater than
last year. He has over 100 acres
in wheat, which he declares is look
ing fine.

U ~SPLENDORS.


court function given by the king
and queen. 1t was the first held
for six years and in spite of the
new poverty of many of the aris-
~tocracy, it was said to be as bril-
liant as any of its predecessors.
Time was when a presentation at
the court of St. James, or the court
of royalty anywhere in Europe,
was a honor much desired by those
who hoped to be received in fash
ionable society in this country. But
royal receptions have gone out of
fashion since the war. In fact, a
good many of the most brilliant
courts have disappeared entirely.
The cars body lies buried in some
unknown grave, and a royal duke,
if there are any left in Russia, is
liable to be disguised as a waiter
in a cafe OF a garbage collector.
Gone also are the jewels that made
his court functions brilliant, and
his palaces are occupied by former
hack drivers OF shoemakers, or
criminals released from Jail. The
Emperor William of Germany is
hidden in a villa in Holland and
practically a prisoner there, while
a republic rules his former empire.
The court of Vienna is no more
and the former aristocracy Of
Austria Hungary is thinking more
of getting a living than a shining
at royal receptions.
So this court function of the king
and queen of Great Britain gets
more than the usual degree of ad-
vertising because it is a novelty
these days. In Great Britain the
sovereigns seem to retain their hold
on the affection of the people in
a rather remarkable way. They
like to pay the cost of those recep-
tons and court functions and there
is no complaint though taxes there
are Of crushing weight and produc-
ton and commerce subnormal. A
big crowd attended, including a
good many Americans. Several re-
forms were noted by those who
knew the presentation code so rig
idly maintained by Queen Victoria
in the last century and still pitiless-
ly enforced down to the outbreak
Of the war. From the Times re-
port, n gathers:
There was no long waiting in
line of the p%resentees to take their
turn to make their bows before
their majesties. Those presented
waited in the big reception room
until the summons came to them
to appear before their majesties.
The lord chamberlain called each
name in turn. The debutante, or
young bride, took up her train,
passed into the throne room, gave
two courtesies, one to the king and
one to the queen, and then walked
into another room to have supper
and listen to the music. The cere.
mony of presentation was all over
in a few minutes. The serving of
supper aftervsard was another well
come change from the stiff and
Spartan days of Queen Victoria,
when hungry guests munched sand
witches in the secrecy of their car
riages."

IF YOU ARE SLEEPLESS

One of the worst things in the
world is to be troubled with sleep
lessness. Every one has his own pat
ent cure for it, just as everyone has
his own pet remedy for cold in the
head, seasickness or ceoupy children.
Here are several suggestions, all of
which can be tried together. They
are based on simple we'll known med1-
cal and psychological facts. I think
they will cure you of sleeplessness as
sufferers.
take a hot drink and eat a couple of
crackers. Personally, advise. hot
milk or hot chocolate. But If you are
reducing you may not want the extra
nourishment of these, and in that case
drink a large glass of very hot wa
ter. However, very few fat people
are troubled with sleeplessness. Those
who lie awake are the thin ones.
The theory of this is that the hot
drink draws the blood from the brain
to the stomach, making the brain
quieter and less active. Some people
find hot chocolate too stimulating to
drink at bedtime, and many people
find hot weak tea soothing. Choose
which ever drink quiets you most.
Then lie comfortably in a. cool,
dark room. Force yourself to Danish
from your head all disturbing or I'M
pleasant thoughts. This isn't easy, in
fact this is the hardest part of the
treatm emit I find that the best way
to accomplish it is to begin to i'm
agine all sorts of pleasant things as
