BOARD COUNTY COMMISSION
ERS,
BY J. H. Harris, County Clerk.
-(Adv.)
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1923-08-01

Meantime let's set a maximum price on gasoline, say at
10 cents a gallon and make all picture shows and entertainment
propositions free to the public. That could be done by taking
the picture show sufficiently to pay the cost of free admissions.
The maximum price for sugar shouldn't be over 5 cents a pound
and that of meat to the consumer say 10 cents for pOrterhouse.
Cmon, Let's legislate. Run like everything, Sknnay.
Let's all get rich by selling everything we've got at the cost
of production plus 100 per cent and buying all we buy at cost of
production less 100 per cent. Why remain in this condition of
enslavement longer when the remedy is in our own votes? Through
centuries the human race has toiled and sweat to gain property
and protect old age. Why? Because it knew no better. Time. was
to be sure when one cave person went across the gulch with a
stone hammer when he craved something another cave person
had and after knocking his contemporary on the head took what
he wanted and went home. 1t was a crude and messy fashion.
His dim intellect hadn't conceived that all he had to do was to
pass a law.
Another thing that needs legislation is this early rising. Why
should we be forced by man made and sordid regulations to get to
work by eight o'clock and continue until five or six in the after
noon? What right has any human being to so control and COM
mand a human life? Why should any free soul be bound by hours
and his life peddled out by the dial of a clock? This given life of
his, this treasure of time. Why should he work when he wants
to go fishing? Let's fix it that a man shall come to work of his
own voltion and quit any time he chooses. About pay? Give
him full time. He needs the money. Those that refuse to work
need it most. Then give them most.
Somebody has got to work? Huh, where do you get that
noise? Don't you know that in ten, twent', thirt' stuff. Old stuff.
Back number. Well legislate, bgosh. Why this fertile country
with it's immense resources will keep us all without work if the
hand of the oppressor is cast off. Spose all the money in all the
banks were divided up as it ought to be wouldn't we all be too
strong to work. I'll say so. Legislate man, legislate. Pass a law.
Well cooperate. That's the ticket. Wen stabilize every
thing. Well fix it all right, we and Magnus Smith. Who'll we
cooperate with? Anybody we goshdarned please. If the others
shy on our system of cooperating We'll pass a law.
What about natural laws and so on? Never mind the natural
laws. They were passed long ago when things were different
and La Toilette hadn't been discovered or those easy, non-sagging
bed springs invented. Well repeal them.
Cmon, Skinnay. Run like everything. The bright sun rises
in the east and lights a race Of slaves getting up to take care of
their herds and wide acres. 1t sets and its last beam fall on them
doing the night chores and getting the auto out to go to town.
This same sun shines down on another set of slaves going to work
at eight and getting off at four or five. Rouse We, Romans, rouse
We slaves! Pass a law. Legislate. Let's all get rich.
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1923-08-01
d AND POINCARE

France is standing pat. The suggestion that the Versailles
pact be revised doesn't get anywhere with France. She suggests
that a treaty signed by twentyeight nations should stand more
than four years. She states that she wants her money and pro-
poses to keep on trying to- get it and hints that Great Britain
must stand with her or be placed in "the scrap of paper" nations.
France denies that Germany is ruined and brings in Germanys
building and industrial expenditures as evidence. Says she holds
security for her claims under the Versailles pact and proposes to
hang right on to the security, the Ruhr being that security.
Further she hints that she is able to take care of herself in almost
any position she may now be placed in. AS she has all the little
new nations behind her in her stand on the Versailles pact her
confidence is not patiently misplaced. Those new nations were
made and created at Versailles and must stand by Versailles.
Just what Great Britain shall do about it isn't clear. That
France is determined to hold on as she has begun to the extent
of a ruptured entente is forecast in Poincare's crafty reply to
Baldwin. 1t looks as though the British premier is in the hole
with three balls and no strikes. He may pitch himself out of
the hole or pitch Europe into a worse one.

A SURE WOBBLY SPECIFIC

The state of Texas has avoided a wobbly strike. The word
went out to fill Port Arthur with wobblies and embarrass the
city by filling the jals and raising the devil generally. Texas
welcomed the invaders with open hands. Port Arthur set about
building a stockade down by the soughs where mosquitoes hold
their national convention. The keys of the stockade were to be
presented to the wobbles. More yet, Texas counties had a plan
of cooperation that was a wonder. They laid out road work galore
ind foresaw a plenttude of road labor working out fines for dis
orderly conduct and disturbance of the peace and the like of that.
In short Texas waved its hat and yelled, "Cmon Skinnay"
Right here the army of the invasion stopped as though 1t
had run into a zone of poison gas. The campaign failed. Mos
quitoes were bad enough but when the insult of work was added
to the injurious insect it was all off. The wobbly army disbanded
and sought individual handouts. The word was save yourself.
To paraphrase "The wave of attack checked itself there because
the thought of hard labor compelled it to pause
So the highways of Texas still suffer from a shortage Of
labor.
