PRESIDENTS VETO
ON BONUS MEASURE:
EXPECTED TUESDAY
Forces Are Being Rallied in
House to Override Har-
ding-President Expected
to Explain Action

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Infor
nation that President Harding had
made up his mind definitely to veto
the soldiers bonus bill reached the
senate leaders from some OF
his close advisers. They said his
message of disapproval would be
sent to the house Tuesday.
After receiving this word, the ma
jority leaders made an informal pre-
liminary canvas of the senate, which
was sad to have shown "a votes
against overriding veto, or two
more than the number necessary to
prevent final enactment of the bonus
legislation.
This margin was understood, how
ever, to be regarded by some friends
of the president as too narrow, and
they expected Mr.. Harding to call
several senators to the White House
before Tuesday for discussion of
the situation. With many senators
absent from Washington, it was as
serted by some that it was difficult
to assess senate sentiment at this
time.
Many Of these absentees, it was
stated, could not possibly get back
to Washington in time to vote. Ev-
cry effort will be made to pair
absentees, but it was explained that
it might not be possible to pair all
of them and it was conceded that
the absence of pairs in even few
cases might have a material effect
on the outcome.
Mr.. Harding's advisers expect him
to set forth in vigorous manner his
reasons for a veto. From the first
he has insisted that bonus legisla-
ton should carry a method of fl
nancing it, and he also has voiced
disap- oval of "piece meal pay
ments to the World war vets, declar-
ing that it would be better to post
pone payment than to make it in
such a manner.
Should the bill be returned to the
house, managers of it there planned
to move promptly to pass it over the
.yetp.z-The general belief was that
far more than the necessary two
thirds .-.ajority could be obtained
there.
The bonus bill was taken to the
White House late Saturday by Chair
man Ricketts,, of the house commit
tee on enrolled bills, and Repre-
sentative Thompson, another Repub-
Lean member from Ohio. Generally
bills are transmitted to the execu-
tive offices by house messengers.
AS the treasury had closed, the
bill remained at the White House.
It is expected, however, that it will
be sent Monday to Secretary Mellon
for his examination and an opinion
This is the usual course Of pro.
cedure. From the treasury it would
be returned to the president for his
action.
Just before the bonus bill reached
the White House there was present
ed at the executive offices a IRE
quest" to the president from the
chamber of commerce of the United
States to veto the bill. The request
in the form of a brief, was accom-
panied by a letter from President
Julius H. Barnes, who asked Mr.
Hardings consideration of the cham
ber's brief as constituting an argu
ment for veto.

less hectic career of that upstand-
ing old guard warrior. It is known
that the old guardsmen, the fellows
who went down fighting with Taft
in 1912 and came back, none too
enthusiastically with Joe Dixon in
1920, are not particularly enamored
of either Carl Riddick or Yelling
ton Rankin.
"The democratic situation like.
wise presents several speculative
aspects. Most thoughtful demo-
Gratis honestly believe that the
chances Of electing a senator of
their faith are exceptionally bright.
This fact creates no little wonder
as to the apparent coyness on the
part Of tentative candidates to an
nounce their intentions in the
premises. 1t may be frankly stated,
however, that back of this SEEM
ing reluctance of certain democrats
to publish their announcements lies
q desire to take no step which
might je6pardize the chances of
democratic success at the polls in
November.
1T is realized that, in order to
be successful at the coming cleo
ton, the democrats must be united
and there is ample reason for the,
prediction that this desired unity
will be attained even though at
least two other men, of whom B. K.
Wheeler is one, whose names are
frequently mentioned in connection
with the senatorial race, should
contest for the honor. 1t is alto
gether certain that the next thirty
days will see the senatorial lists of
both old parties filled. Our guess
is that there are not going to be
any senatorial nominations won in
Montana this year by default.
Rather, the voters of each of the
major parties are going to have the
opportunity to select their man
from two, perhaps three, contest
ants in each party primary"

The object of this club, says County
Agent S%tebbins, is 10 increase the in
terest of small bands of sheep on the
farms of Valley county. Every farmer
in the county, he says, could just as
well have from one to four dozen sheep
as this many would live on waste on an
average farm and would provide fresh
meat during the summer months and
furnish cash at shearing time.

B. X. WHEELER.
THE Dupuyer Acantha takes note
i of the fact that B. K. Wheeler

THE Dupuyer Acantha takes note
! of the fact that B. X. Wheeler
is considering the chances he might
have of being elected if he filed
his candidacy for United States
senator on the Democratic ticket.
Friends Of Mr.. Wheeler who sup
ported him at the last election, and
the Great Falls Tribune is not one
of them, assert that Mr.. Wheeler
has broken his former alliance with
Mr.. Dunn and the J.. w. w. organ
ization and is disposed to ally him
self hereafter with the straight
democratic party. 1t is always op-
en- for the repentant sinner to re-
turn, but it always seemed to US
that in such event he ought to oc-
cupy a back seat for a time at
least. If Mr.. Wheeler has had
enough of the husks that the swine
did eat it is all right that he should
return to his fathers house, but
he should not demand that he be
fed on veal, or that the highest
honors of the party should be given
to him until he has earned them
by loyal service to the democratic
party. The Dupuyer Ancanthta
says:
News dispatches tell US that
Burton X. Wheeler, N. P. L. can
didate for governor of Montana
two years ago, is in a mood to ac-
cept, should it be thrust upon him,
the democratic nomination for
United States senator.
I'm an interview credited to Mr..
Wheeler, the press has it that this
erstwhile champion of the Townley
cause makes it plain that he does
not seek the non-partisan endorse
ment for his campaign. should he
make one. B. K, the account says,
will be a candidate, if at all. for
the democratic nomination, in the
democratic primaries, on the demo-
cratic PLATFORM
ITO those who still remember
wildly the part taken by Wheeler
in the last campaign his change of
heart will be apparent and not a
little surprising. Many old line
democrats will doubtless find him
a hard pill to swallow and will be-
lieve that there are statements and
attitudes of his still unexplained
which can hardly be expected to
rally to his standard the over
whelming support of the party
voters.
Such a statement was to be ex-
pected and argues we'll for the poll
tician's instinct with which the ex-
district attorney is SO richly en-
dowed. He reads we'll the signs of
the times and knows when a cause
is lost.
mot to overlook any advantage
that might accrue from creation Of
friendly sentiment among the till
ers of the soil, the closing SEN
fences of the Wheeler statement
cajole former followers with this,
after telling them that he neither
asks nor expects the endorsement
of the league: of course, if I
should be a candidate, I shall be
very glad to have the support of
the farmers and Of all other classes
