HELD FOR OLD CRIME

Sheriff Leath is preparing to send a man to Asheville, N. C., to bring Charlie Gibbs, arrested there Thurs day, to stand trial in connection with the killing of Police Chief Pink Jenkins at Attalla 20 years ago. At his request Governor Brandon has wired the governor of North Caro- lima asking him to instruct the sheriff at Asheville not to let the man get away. Gibbs brother-in- law, John White, was convicted of murder and sent to the peniteniary in connection with the staying of the officer and it is saids he committed suicide while in prison. A message received Friday afternoon stated that Gibbs had sued for writ of habeas corpus

even to own a cigarette. The New York assembly
is considering a bill to supervise dancing in hotels,
and has a civic league which wants legal sanction
for certain holds in dancing, with all others made
~offenses against the law. Kentucky tried to abol-
ish evolution, but was saved by some common
sense legislators, and Texas is working out the
mighty problem of whether one scientific doc
trine may be taught in the public school and
another excluded. A bill has passed the South
Carolina house of representatives prohibiting the
playing of pool or billiards at any place at any
time. The question Of moving picture censorship
we have always with us.
Doubtless all this is harmless enough; the "blue
law makes little Roadway against the hard COM
mon sense of the United States as a whole. Yet
the same spirit of intolerance which declares, be-
cause one man finds rolling ivory balls over a
green cloth a crime, therefore other men should
be made to hold the same views, could easily con-
slider that striking a white ball over a net is a
crime, or batting a baseball over a grass lot is a
crime. The spirit of intolerance, like a fire, can
spread rapidly from NAL beginnings, and also
like a fire, its effects are wholly destructive when
unconfined.
It may be wise to remember that this coun-
try was founded because the inhabitants could
not stand intolerance of those who, abroad, legis-
lated for the colonies; that certain Pilgrims carved
New England from the wilderness because they
could not stand the intolerance of religious per-
~secution.

NEW DEPOT.

Bozeman citizens are no doubt feeling greatly
pleased at the announced plans of the Northern
Pacific railroad to erect a new depot in the city.
There has been a feeling for years among the
people of the city that the present structure is
far behind the city and the advanced conditions
of the county of which it is the capital. For many
years it has been the habit of those interested in
the welfare of the city to feel the necessity of
offering apologies for the present depot when it
is called to their attention by visitors. If present
indications eliminate the new depot will be in use
within the year, which will be cause for the peo-
pie Of the city to rejoice.
1t is understood that the railroad company
planned to make the Improvement at the Bozeman
station several years ago, in fact the work would
have been done at an earlier date had not the
war interfered. Since that time the company has
not been in a financial condition, it is reported,
to carry on work of improvement desired along
it's line. The past year has brought about a change
10 such an extent that funds are made available
with which to make a large number of necessary
improvements on the entire line of the railroad
Among the first improvements to be made will
be the new depot at Bozeman.

INTOLERANCE.

No legislator, no reformer, no jealous moralist,
will admit that he is intolerant. Yet there is
intolerance in this country; intolerance ~practiced
by good and earnest men and women who sincere
ly believe that what they thing is wrong, is wrong
because they think so, and who, therefore, feel
called upon to make the rest of the country be-
lieve as they do!
An earnest group in Massachusetts is trying to
pass a law making any Sunday activity illegal,
whether it be bread selling or checker playing.
Utahis failing men who smoke cigarettes in public.
Kansas has long had an anti-cigarette selling law,
and now is discussing whether it isn't a crime

TOO MUCH LAW.

An organization of eminent lawyers formed ITO
promote the Qualification and simplification of
the law and its better adaptation to special needs.
and to secure the better administration of justice
and to encourage and carry on scholarly and sci
entific legal work" has been formed at a meet
ing held in Washington, D.. c., which was attend
ed by four hundred of the leading jurists of the
country.
Former Director of the Budget Dawes says the
country is tired of rule by organized minorities
which thwart the will Of the unorganized major
ity. 81
The Right Reverend Thomas F. Gailor, bishop
of Tennessee. lays at the door of the "reformer"
much of the disrespect of law, of which the coun-
try complains, and says that laws which restrict
personal freedom and make crimes of natural acts
cause contempt of courts.
Evidently something is wrong! When the law
yer, the layman, and the churchman all agree that
something is awry in our legal structure, some
thing probably is!
One mans guess is as good as another's as to
what; but there is a decided undercurrent of be-
lief in many quarters that one of our troubles, if
not the cause of all our legal tangles, is too much
law; too much adding statute to statute. regula-
ton to regulation, practice to practice, without
any clearing out of the dead wood of old and worn
out ideas.
There are even those who say that much legaI
trouble is caused by lawyers; there is too much
reverence for tradition and precedent, and moi
enough common sense, and therefore not enough
expedition in law processes.
That the lawyers themselves are forming al
association to investigate and initiate reforms i
comforting; that they may have the vision to cal
to their aid some common sense viewpoints from
laymen and churchmen, for whom the laws ar
made, is devoutly to be hopedi

MRS. LIEURANCE WEARS
Elk COSTUME WITH ERMINE

ThurlOw Lieurance is a magician
with his art of interpretating Indian
music, lore and legend. With know
ledge gained from twenty years spent
in the midst Of tribes of North Ameri-
can Indians, he has been able to as
semble into exquisite melody, more
than 800 harmonies, bringing his au-
dience in close relationship to the
wcirdness and beauty of Indian mu-
sic.
His is the art which enables him
to touch his hearers only as true ar
lists can. He analyses his music into
such concreteness that he can take
his audience from the CRIME, the
noise the struggle and turmoil of
cery-day life to the cool deep shad-
ows of the primitive forest.
Mrs. Lieurance will reveal all the
hidden beauties of Indian lore, wear
ing costumes Of the North Amerl-
cans, one of which is fashioned Of
the tawny skin of an elk, with trim

depths of the Indian woods. In these
