THE short AND
UGLY FOR HULL

|
In a manifestly insincere and mis-
leading presentation Of figures, Chair
man Hull, of the Democratic national
committee has undertaken to refute
some of the claims of President Hard
ing for credit to the Republican party
for the reduction of the national debt.
Mr.. Hull asserts that of the reduction
of approximately $4,000, 100000 that
has taken place in the national debt
since August 81, 1919, $1,000, 000 1000
was paid off by the Democratic adj
ministration.
Mr.. Hulls contention is that the
Democratic administration paid off
that amount Of debt during the 18
months prior to March 4, 1921. He
ignores the fact that the congresssion-
al and senatorial elections of 1918 re-
suited in an overthrow of the Demo-
cratic majority in both houses, and on
March A, 1919, the Republicans as
sumed control. In the closing days
of the previous congress a Republican
filibuster had defeated Democratic
appropriation bills carrying enormous
unnecessary and extravagant apprO-
priations from the public treasury.
The first session of the Republican
congress passed those defeated ap-
preparation bills, but with a reduction
aggregating 1898, 100000.
During the subsequent sessions Of
the Republican congress under the
Democratic administration, Republic
ans defeated Democratic demands for
appropriations from the treasury to
the amount of $3.50, 0OO, 1000. There
was thus saved to the government a
total of SO. 1885,, 100000, part of which
was made available for paying off the
national debt.
Every dollar of debt paid off dur
ing the Democratic administration
was due directly and solely to the
economies forced upon the Democrats
by the Republican congress. With
out those forced economies the gov
eminent would have faced a $3,000,-
100000 deficit and the Republican re-
duction of $3.50, $1,000 in federal
taxes would have been impossible
This is not a mere assertion; it it 6

LIVESTOCK TOUR To
BE Held AUGUST rs.

Several states have for a number
of years put on livestock tours, and
have found that those who go on
these tours get a lot Of valuable in
formation from them. On August 7
and 8 we will have one in Gallatin.
county.
The plans provide for a stop at one
ranch where each of the different
breeds of beef and dairy cattle, sheep,
and swine are raised. In all, ten
different ranches will be visited, and
the afternoon of the last day will be-
spent at the State College looking
over the wonderful dairy herd, beef
cattle, sheep and swine. Oscar Tret-
sven, dairy specialist, and Dick Mil
lin, livestock specialist, will make tae
tour with the ,stockmen and give a
lot of good information. The only
expense will be for the gasoline you
use, since each one will be asked to.
take their lunch with them. Every
farmer who owns or expects to have
livestock should try and make this
trip.
If anyone who is interested in MAX
ing the trip will drop a line to County
Agent Bodley. or call him up immedi
ately, it will help him out in making
arrangements, and he will then mott
fly you in advance of the time and
place of meeting for each of the two
days. Your cooperation in making
the tour a success will be appreciated,
and the results will be worth while.

JUDGE LYNCH RESTING.

In the first six months Of 1923 there
were only II lynchings in the United
States, one-third as many as in the
first half of 1922. There hav ebeen
several instances where enforcement
officers have made determined stands
against a mob bent on lynchings and
frustrated it's designs. Even Georgia
shows signs of awakening in that re-
gard. If all sheriffs had the courage
to do their duty there would be a sud
den end to the lynching evil.
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1923-07-18

France in that regard is the reason
for the increase. The United States
lags far behind in the matter of air
protection, and it is up to congress
whether the deficiency is to be rem
edied. It would be desirable if the
powers would reach an agreement for
the limitation Of air fleets, as they
have already limited the size and
number of battleships, but until that
time comes the United States cannot
afford to trail behind other nations
in the strength of it's air forces.

Chairman John T. Adams, of the
Republican national committee, has
asked each committeeman to select a
from his state as an associate
member Of the committee. The action
is simply an extension of a we'll
known Republican policy. Ever since
the Republicans of congress granted
the ballot to women they have had a
prominent part in the party councils.
