DIsPUTING THE RECORDS

Any contest that the Democrats
may put up in the fall elections will
be confined to ~disputing the public
record. The Republicans have saved
hundreds of millions of dollars, re-
duced taxation, cut the national
debt, reduced the number of FEEDER
al employees, raised the market price
of Liberty Bonds, put the govern
ment on a business basis, and made
the most remarkable showing for
general efficiency of any administra-
ton in the history of the country.
The Democrats may question the rec
ord but there is ample proof for ev-
cry item in it.-Plentywood Herald.

From the experience of Montana
during the last six years, it has been
determined that agriculture and
stock raising are also hazardous n
dertakings. The Constitutional Con-
vention admitted that they were
framing a constitution favorable to
the mining industry because it was
a hazardous business. There has
been very little profit made in the
agricultural sections Of the State,
yet a property tax is levied every
year, regardless Of the fact that in
some sections Of the State, this class
of property has shown a continuous
loss. This is one reason for the need
of a tax commission.

LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE

The Herald is gratifed to be able to put before its
readers in this issue the full text of the State Examiners
comprehensive report on Roosevelt county. The examln-
alton of the records was made between April 26th and
May 18th, 1922, three months ago, but this is the first pub
Lefty given the important document.
The County Commissioners, or at least one OF them,
and the County Attorney have long had copies OF the re-
port in their possession but such copies have not been
up to date, published by the official Standard bearer. The
"boss" probably did not have space for it.
There is just one request to be made Of the readers
of this ~paper-READ THIS REPORT-readi it carefully.
Put the paper away in a safe place for future reference.
1t is almost unbelievable that red-blooded men in
possession Of their senses can feel so lightly the sacred
obligations of their offices, can be so faithless to the hard
working, plucky men and women they are supposed TO
represent, as to do some of the things disclosed in this re-
port. Who can doubt that the inside facts would be still
worse? They are shameless, astounding, beyond the
reach of ordinary conception, In a great, grand, country
of optimism and opportunity like Montana.
The truth, authentic and uncOlOred, is often
lacking to guide the voter to wise and just decisions on
the matters to be decided at the ballot box. But in this
instance the truth is available. So let the voters peruse
and consider it. Surely they can contribute the time for

FLORIDA RAzORBACK
ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR
'By Associated Press)

! Gainesville, Fla. July 10
Somebody ought to have a gen
tline Florida razorback mounted
before they become extinct. They
are hard to find, now"
Thus does no less an authority
than the Buerau of Markets and
Crop Estimates of the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture here officially confirm the
suspicion that the porker around
which SO many yarns have been
spun soon will be a candidate for
the museum.
The Florida farmer is respon-
sible for the passing Of a pack
OF bones and, briStles chock full
of mischief. The razor-back, or
native hog, usually could work
his body into any place his nose
could enter. He was reared on
a farm but was permitted to
roam the woods until he became
half wild and only a photograph
could portray the damage he
could do once he wormed his
way into a plot of cultivated
ground. AS an article of food he
was worth little.
Florida farmers for several
years have been stocking their
places with pure bred swine, and
now have reached the stage
where discussion Of a pigs pedi-
gree is regarded as of extreme
Importance. Cooperative sales
of fine pigs, boys and girls pig
clubs organized and operated I'M
der the supervision of county ag-
r!culturat agents, and numerous
sectional. organizations of hog
breeders sounded the death knelI
of the razor-back.
There is every indication that
the razor-back soon will be eX-
tinct, Floridians have said his
backbone formed an edge sharp
enough to cut a fence rail and
many tourists believed the old
yarn that the hundreds of thou
sands of pine trees on turpentine
farms in the state, with the bark
Clipped off on two sides to a
height of several feet, were dam
aged by the razor-backs sharp
ening themselves preparatory to
cutting another fence. Snakes
and alligators are rarely seen
outside of ZOOS and now the ra-
zor-back is passing.

TWO Big STILLS
FOUND At BIG HILL

Offices got two more well
equipped moonshine stills in the
Big Hill section Of Madison
county this week and cases
against those charged with max
ing liquor illegally will come up
in court soon. Deputy Sheriff
Ben Davis, of Berea, led a raid
on the farm Of Cam Neeley early
Friday morning that netted a 90
gallon still and capture of one
man. The fellow arrested was
Dewey Parker, who had just ar
lived at the still with load Of
wood and was taken into custo-
dy, There were six men at work
at the still, officers say, but a
dog gave the raiders away and
the six men ran and made a safe
getaway Mr.. Davis said this
still was one Of the best ne ever
saw. In addition to fine cop
Per worm, it had a copper pro-
cesser and other equipment of
the best kind. Accompanying
Davis on this raid were Deputy
Sheriff T. ]. Robertson, Chief OF
Police L. {. Powell and Special
Deputy II. ]. Abney, Of Bcrca,
and Federal Agent Flancry.

PARIS, Sept. 10.---The probable inn
munity from international difficulties
until December, combined with re-
vival IN trade after a two-year period
of inactivity, has resulted in a con-
tinuation of the steady rise in securi-
ties of all classes. A profitable soll-
tlon of the reparations problem
through deliveries in kind or the
eventual seizure of productive re-
sources in Germany is already beirg
discounted on the Bourse as an event
of the next twelve months.
During the long period of under
consumption the French industrialists
could identify their personal interests
with those countries which feared an
influx of foreign goods at a time when
their own economic existence was in a
state of transition. Now, however,
with business improving and senti-
mental opposition diminishing, great
deliveries of materials, and possibly
labor, from Germany can be envisaged,
Senator Marquis de Iubersac has
just completed direct negotiations with
the SHINES group for the shipment Of
$4,000 square yards of lumber for the
cooperative organizations of the dew
astated regions. The extension of the
theory Of dealing with great private
ilrms Will provide guarantees which the
weak German radical government is in
capable of supplying over long period
Of time.
French taxpayers and persons who
depend on fixed incomes are insisting
strongly that big business interests
turn their attention toward the devel-
opment of foreign markets and cease
to rely for their prosperity on the re-
construction of the northern districts,
which, once accomplished, would leave
them without outlets for their
activities.
During the last four years these. big
business interests have enjoyed a
practical monopoly on the restoration
work, having had ample time to con-
vert their factories from war needs to
peace-time production.
with overseas commerce threatened
by stronger maritime rivals, the most
prominent tendency at present is to
stimulate commercial relations on the
Continent and thus profit by the post
war political situation. This is be-
ing accomplished largely through the
use OF the great canals and rivers. At
present French shipping on the Rhine
exceeds quarter of million tons,
and with Strasbourg permanent
French harbor the total should swell
rapidly in the future. Negotiations
are on foot with Switzerland for join
ing the Rhone and the Rhine. Their
levels would be about equalized by
lowering the Lake of Geneva some
three feet

Crisis
Is Still Felt
In Germany
Reicllsbark Is Preparing
to Speed Up Presses
to Extent of More Than
Four Billion Marks Daily
special Cable to The Trtbune

Copyright, 1922, New York Tribune Inc
BERLIN, Sept. 10.I'he weeks finan
cial situation has been under the in
f1uence of two main factors--the Ger
man-Belgian reparations negotiations
and the continued money shortage. The
Reischbank at the end Of the week was
still some f2,000,000,000 marks behind
the required supply of money, and
banks in all parts of the country have
received only small share of their
needs despite their repeated frantic
calls for more.
The Reichsbank has announced that
it is preparing to speed up the printing
presses to the extent of more than
1000, 100000 new paper marks daily or
about .3o,0o0,oo0,000 monthly. AT this
rate the amount of paper money in
circulation in Germany will be doubled
in short time. What effect this will
have on the value of marks is easily
conjectured.
The negotiations with Belgium failed
to bring any results. The Belgians are
now reported to be returning to Brus-
sells for further instructions. Although
the optimism prevailing at the begin
ming of the negotiations has cooled
considerably, it is still probable that
some sort of accord will be reached,
but it Is felt everywhere that an agree
ment with Belgium would be a make
shift which, while Offering Germany
some breathing space, will leave the
reparations problem and some funda-
mental questions bearing on Germany's
financial restoration untouched. All
hope, therefore, is being concentrated
on the Allied conference in the fall,
when it is hoped that America will at
last throw her weight into the decision.
The first clear effects of the financial
crisis on the industrial situation is
revealed in the August report of the
Prussian Chamber of Commerce, which
contains the first evidence that German
industry is beginning to fail. While
this report shows no decline in actual
production, it shows that orders are
now coming in slowly and that the
tightness of money is becoming a real
danger.
Thus the locomotive, electrical, tex.
tile, chemical, paper and rubber indus
tries all complain Of the difficulty of
obtaining credits necessary to continue
operations at full blast. Many cleo
trical projects have been abandoned
and cotton mills have been compelled
to curtail working schedules. The silk
trade reports a virtual cessation of
home orders. The stocks of cotton
have been reduced from 320,667 to 67.-
038 bales, the explanation being un-
doubtedly the tremendous rise in
prices.

LONDON, Sept. 10.--British fna n
cial and business men, although not,
concealing their satisfaction that the
reparations problem seems removed to
less troublesome basis for the next
six months, have as yet taken little
interest in the proposed economic con-
ference at Brussels. While financial
interests here stand almost unanimously
for scaling down the French debt to
Britain, the powerful Federation of
British Industries some weeks ago re-
corded it's opposition to any conces-
signs without similar indulgences on
the part of Britain's creditors.
One factor which compicates the
present situation is that the general
election is bound to come in Britain
before very long-since it is most un-
likely that Lloyd George will wait to
let his government die natural death
when its statutory limit expires a
year hence-and that debt forgiveness
on the eve Of elections would hardly
be considered good policy for the
party which was elected on a pro-
gram "of making Germany pay to the
last farthing."
The Turko-Greek war has had little
effect on financial circles here beyond
sending Greek exchange tumbling and
creating demand for insurance on
foreign property at Smyrna. Lombard
Streets view of the probable outcome
of the conflict is shown in the pre-
miums for such insurance, e3 for 8100
per month, with much readiness to
underwrite large sums at this figure.
The stock market this week has not
displayed any special activity. The gen
eral course has been that gilt-edged
shares opened strongly each day, only
Oil shares, however, enjoyed a mina-
ture boom, but dropped back Thurs
day as profit taking set in.
While coal shipments to the United
States continue there are also distinct
signs of improvement in the export
trade to Australia and New Zealand,
This perhaps seems more pronounced
because for several months ships have
been sailing practically empty This
revival is partly due to shipping goods
which were ordered in time to arrive
in the Antipodes for the Christmas
trade. The shipping companies are
waiting to see whether the increased
exports will justify lower freight rates
recently granted on imports from Aus
tralia and which, unless they are COM
pensated for by increased returns from
outward traffic, will be difficult to
maintain.
