SOVIET OR GAR.

The news dispatches today bring to this coun-
try a report of the execution of the vicar general
of the Roman Catholic church in Russia by the
Soviet government. The horror of the execution
brings to our minds the ancient methods and prac-
tees of the car, and some of this same kind of
authority was ~practiced by the powerful rulers
of Russia in more recent years. The reported
execution has been denied by the Soviet govern
ment.
Protests were sent to the Soviet government
from almost every nation of the world, objecting
to the punishment of the priest pronounced upon
him. He may have been guilty of the charges,
even though that is questioned, yet there could
have been a punishment as effective, and prob
ably more so, melted out to him by some other
method. 1t but shows the extreme to which I'M
limited power will be extended when placed in
the hands of fanatics or unreasonable idealists.
Much has been said, and many have been the
claims for recognition of the Soviet government
by the United States, but this country has with
held such recognition pending some demonstration
of efficient governmental authority. The action
of the Russian power of today, in the summary
execution of a man of high and responsible stand
ing in the nation, upon a political charge such as
was envoked against this man, proved the conten-
ton of our state department that the government
of Russia is not to be recognized.
All appeals made for clemency were rejected
that of the United States, based upon humanitar-
ian grounds, not being given any consideration.
Threats of withdrawing diplomatic relations with
Russia, by nations that have recognized its pres
ent government, even the possibility of war
against her did not stop the unreasonable act.
Here we see the falacy of a government supposed
to be based upon community welfare, but really
in the hands of a powerful click of dictators, who
rule with an iron hand, more ruthless than was
exercised by those who believed in their divine
right to govern.
Shame shall sit upon the escutcheon of the
Soviet government Of Russia for all times foI
this legalized crime, if it is found to have beer
committed. The denial of the execution by the
Russian powed may be true. Let us hope so.

The top price of the Round-Up was
recorded when the = Turner Lumber
and Investment Company, of Kansas
City, bought don Domino 1015763,
calved February 41,921, from G. M.
Scott & Son, of Rea, Missouri, for
1925. The SCOTS have a small herd,
founded only three years ago. Their
sales at the Roundup are evidence
that the small breeder who secures
good foundation stock and takes good
care of his produce can win success.
The top female of the sale was

March q, 1921, purchased by L. Z.
McShane & Sons, of Pennington, Mo
from Wallace and E. G.. Good, OF
Grandview, Mo-, for $40.
The average price paid for the top
hundred head was 1884. Because of
the storm many of the consignmen,s
arrived late and went almost direct
from the cars to the show ring. Their
appearance tended to hold prices
down.
Henry C. Wallace, secretary of ag-
riculture, was a guest of the Here
ford Association on the opening day.
He told of the work the United STATES
Department of Agriculture is doing in
behalf of the livestock industry. He
stressed three points: The publicity
being given to meat as a necessary
part of a balanced diet, the value of
pure-bred livestock in improving the
standard of commercial cattle and the
work of the department in strength
ening its statistical reports on pro-
duction, cattle feeding and market
ing.
Secretary Wallace brought out the
fact that the pure-bred industry restl
on the grade cattle industry and that
prices of pure-bredz moved up and
down in sympathy with the CONNER
! cial cattle market. Conditions are
improving all along the line" he said

signed to the sale will be held on thu

HARD PROBLEMS UP
BEFORE CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, April 4.-Those
political ~slanderers who IN declaring
that the last Congress was a do
nothing Congress should be con-
fronted by the facts when they let
their imaginations run at large. As
all know, who know anything about
Congress, there are thousands Of bills
introduced which never get further
than the drafting stage. In many in
stances they are dropped into the
chopper" simply to placate friends.
Thousands are called, but nunGrecs
are chosen.
Going back to the Sixty-second
Congress, which vas under Demo-
cratic control, it will be found that
28,S79 bills were introduced, of which
TIC, or 2.13 per cent became laws;
in the Sixty-third Congress, q ,6l6
were introduced, and 700, or 3.24 per
cent, became laws; in the Sixty
fourth, 21,104 introduced, and 6S4,
or 3.24 per cent, were passed; IN the
/ Sixty-fifth, 1929 were handed in,
and sos, or 3.13 per cent, went on
the statute books.
The Republicans assumed control
of the Sixty-sixth, when 16 ITO bills
were introduced, and 594, or 1856 per
cent, became laws; and in the Sixty
seventh, just ended, HATS bills were
offered, and 931, or SAB per cent,
were enacted into law.
The Sixty-seventh Congress was a
Congress Of reconstruction and some
of the hardest problems known 10
representative government were no
for solution. In addition to the diff
ficulties attending such problems, the
"bloc" system made it's bow TO the
public, and that added to parlia-
mentary confusion. Nevertheless in
the matter of efficiency, the Sixty
seventh Congress was three times
more capable than the Sixty-third,
and about twice as efficient as the
other three Democratic Congresses
And over and above all it should net
be forgotten that the Sixty-seventh
passed a tariff law, which is gener-
ally supposed to test the energies of
any Congress almost to the breaking
point. AS a rule a Congress adjourn
!, when hat one piece of legislation has
been accomplished.
Those who twit the members Of the
Sixty-seventh Congress with fritter-
ing away time are unfair, and a ger.
eral acceptance Of such a charge a.
; true would lend strength to the cd
= saying that Republics are migrate

PLENTY OF MOISTURE.

The old adage of rain on Easter Sunday means
seven weeks of wet weather will be given a tryout
this spring, in the Gallatin valley, at least. The
day here was a mixture of sunshine, rain and
snow, followed Monday by a regular snowstorm,
all of which is worth about a million dollars to
this district.
The farmer in the Gallatin valley can look for
ward to a bumper crop of wheat, or any other
grain, alfalfa, potatoes, peas and good grass fol-
livestock, if the old saying is true. There is
a lot of snow in the mountains, at this time, in
some places more than has been observed fol
many years. This will insure all the water needed
for irrigation purposes, so that if the sever
weeks wet weather comes, the dry farmer ii
this locality will have his share in the start of
very prosperous season.

THE FARM BLOC.

A most interesting statement concerning the
activities of the farm bloc during the session of
the last congress was given in BOzeman Tuesday
by DR.. William Spillman of Washington, d. c.
He told the circumstances under which it was
organized and praised its work. He gave glow
ing tribute to Senator Kenyon who was the prime
factor in organizing the bloc and the effective
influence it had upon valuable legislation.
The farm bloc has been criticized by many
of those whose interests are not in sympathy with
the general welfare of the country, although its
support and backing was given only to such meas
ures as we're of general good to the whole nation.
The success realized through the efforts of the
bloc, in causing the passage of really useful legis-
lation by congress demonstrates it was an organ
ization of unselfish men.
AS stated by DIR. Spillman, there has always
been blocs in Washington. Every interest has
had its group of men working for legislation favor
able to it, although not called by that name. There
has always been a flock of lobbyists at Washing
ton to work for or against legislation that was
favorable to, or unfavorable to certain industries
Among the members of congress these blocs have
existed, and they have been of sufficient strength
and carried enough influence to secure that which
they desired.
Manufacturers, importers, in fact, all the in
dustries have been represented by blocs. The
shipping interests have had their blocs, main
tanned for years, and in the last session of con-
gress this bloc was a very formidable one. 1t
welded a strong influence for the shipping inter-
ests and almost realized its ambition to secure
favorable legislation. The sugar interests have
always maintained a bloc to protect its interests,
and this has been a most effective one, having
been able through several sessions of congress
to so control legislation as to prevent any inter
ference with its methods.
So, there is no reason, no argument that car
be presented against the farm bloc, in fact, it has
been about the only bloc which might be looked
upon with favor and given commentator. II
has not confined itself to favoring just such leg
islation as was of benefit to the farmer, although
it did succeed in securing passage of many meas
ureS for the farmers. benefit. 1t gave its supper
to such legislation which would benefit the entir,
nation, it was without political color, having il
its membership men of all parties. 1t was a con
sentative organization, composed of men of higl
intelligence, possessed of true patriotism, and
desire to render real service to the nation.
The farm bloc was needed at the time it wa
organized, to bring about desirable Legislation
helpful in stabilizing the nation. Through it
work the farmer, the stock grower and the cour
try merchant will during the next few years, re
ceive the financial assistance that will carry ther
to a more safe and secure basis of operation.
The full realization of the benefits to the cour
try, made possible by the strong support of tn

VERSE
Spring.

Bards like to sing of the music of
spring,
In a way that makes you feel
That you'd hike to float like a lazy
boat
In the creek with the slipperay eel.
Well, perhaps you think that the
creeks brink
Is a place to take a snooze,
While the birds all sing of the joys
of spring,
And your cares you will lose.
Now, I'll say you're right about this
world so bright,
When the winter coat starts to
leave
For the joys Of spring that the sun
shine bring
Are the ones for which we grieve.

Houses.

Houses.
There are houses called home, where
the kids like to roam
Round the doorstep, both front and
back.
There are houses without name that
are renowned for game,
AS a business place, brown, white,
or black.
There are houses where live the great
of the land.
With their royal puppies spread
out for view;
There are houses where live the pow
erty band,
With not a window that you can
see through.
There are houses, and houses, anj
houses,
For all must have shelter, you see
But of all the houses about here
There is only one house for me.
It's a place set back from the high
way of life,
Mid its quiet of garden and shrubs
With a little old lady to run it sc
wise,
And a "dads to care for the scrubs
It's a place I call home when far of
l roam;
And to that little white cot / turn
For of all of the houses on this high
way of life,
'Tis there where my hearthfir,
burns.
