1averty Aequittsd Of FweetOn shO0s

The trial Of Daniel Laverty, of Par
dee, came to close in the district
court of Grangeville Monday night
when the jury brought in a verdict
Of not guilty. Laverty was on trial
under charge of felony for the
shooting of Calvert Tweeton at the
Laverty home near Pardee last spring
The trouble was said to have arisen
over attempted attentions by Twee-
ton to Laverty's wife. Tweeton was
severely wounded in the left leg. Law
erty gave himself up, and at former
trial the jury failed to agree on a
verdict.
Layerty is well known pioneer
resident of the Pardee section and
Tweeton, who is AZ years of age, was
employed in timber work there at the
time of the difficulty.

We can't all be radio fans, but
many of us can and do enjoy Their
carryings-on. AS winter closes down
the men and boys of the wireless be
gin to have the innings again, and this
is getting to be our great national
sport. The following article by s.
Kruse, technical editor of COST
and sent out by the American Radio
Relay League amateur sportsmen
in this great field-will be Of interest
to all our readers who run a set or
have enjoyed listening in" now and
then:
We like TO pretend that we are
making steady progress in this radio
game, but in the business of compar-
/ ing amateur station records we are
not nearly as well off as we were
some years ago, says Mr.. Kruse in
"QST" for November. In the days
when everyone had a spark set we
knew what power we were using; most
Of us knew pretty accurately and the
rest had some sort of information.
When record was made we could tell
how many miles-per-watt it amounted
TO. The man. that covered 1000 miles
with $50 watts had something to be
proud of; that was four miles per
watt. But there was nothing to make
a noise about when some big fthun-
der factory covered 1,500 miles by |
burning $500 watts that was only
one mile per watt. This system gave
everyone the, same chance, in fact it |
gave the little fellow slightly better
chances for if two sets are equally |
good the one with twice as much pow
en- will not work twice as far.
Our first tube men were all mixed
up as to the amount of power they
were using; in fact there are men to
day who talk about t50-watt tube
set when they are really burning $50
watts and ought to rate the thing at
a quarter-kilowatt set.
There is no excuse for this it is
perfectly easy to determin the input
If tube set, it is just as easy as it
vas to determine the input of spark
set; also it win be good for the souls
IF lot of us to discover that our
wonderful efficiency isn't nearly as
wonderful as we have thought.
Let's find out what input wattage
,ur sets are taking by the only sensi7
de method, measuring it, and then
et's play fair with the other fellow
y talking miles-per-watt.
In the automobile game it is admit.
ed that you can drive Fierce Har-
ow farther than Phord before eth
r of them starts to fall apart. But .
he Phord has come back--it goes
arther in miles per gallon, 1t 3 a per
ectly good advantage; the thing is
lore economical, it is o more efficient
machine, it hauls more
with a gallon of gas than
lie Fierce Harrow does. Tt Is the same

TIKI SHELBY FIGHT
Better move now.

1t is a common tendency to let our personal preJudices In
fuence our viewpoint to a large extent. Something comes up
which does not appeal to us as quite fitting or proper. Irrespec-
tive of the real merits of the question or of it's ultimate benefit
to the greatest number we enter into active opposition because
of it's personal prejudice to ourselves. This tendency is supposed
to be more marked in women than in men.
A case to the point is the coming prize fight at Shelby, be-
tween Dempsey and Gibbons for the championship of the world.
Ministerial associations, Woman's clubs and other agencies over
the state are adopting resolutions against the fight and con-
demning it in strong terms as a spectacle from which no good
can come.
While not desiring to enter into a verbal combat as to the
moral issue, we wish to point out one thing that is being over
looked by these people who lean so far toward the restriction of
personal rights and liberties. In another column of this paper
there is an article about Montana, written by one of the men sent
out here to cover" the fight for a big eastern news syndicate. 1t
not only expresses unstinted praise for the state and its pOssibii-
have been so long overlooked. 1t is an article written by a man
who presumably has no interest, financial or otherwise, in Mon
tana and undoubtedly expresses his real beliefs in regard to the
state. And it is being reprinted in scores of big eastern papers.
1t is advertising of the right sort; advertising in columns that
could not be bought at any price.
The prize fight is bringing a world of publicity to Montana
1t is showing the world that, while we have had bad years, Mon
tana is far from being in the down and out column. A state whose
men can outbid and out-general the fight promoters of New York
is not "going back" as some of our il-wishers try to claim. Fur
thermore, there are So special trains coming to Shelby for the
fight. Most of the men who come on these trains will come
be unimpressed by the environs of the little Toole county towT
and go away again. But many of them will go elsewhere IN the
state, visit the parks and thus become somewhat acquainted with
the real Montana. And doubtless some of them will settle here
The prize fight, in the eyes of some, may not be a contes
upon the highest moral plane. But that its good will far NOR
than offset the evil few can gansay.

Fifty thousand people ran for their lives before advancing
floods of fire which overwhelmed everything animate and in
animate on the slopes of Mt. Etna. A city of 10000 inhabitants,
which was in the lava path, was absolutely deserted.
1t has occurred over and over again. The volcano is like a
sleeping tiger. At intervals it wakes and destroys.
Why does humanity crowd back again to the slope of the
mountain when the lava has cooled and the grass begins to cover
the scars?
Why do people do over and over again the things that wreck
lives and waste property? Why do people dismiss disaster past
and defy the present and future?
For we live, each of us, on the slopes of a volcano. Disaster
and wreck and death itself threaten all who discount human ex-
perience and walk on the edge of the craters of disaster and
calamity?
Why does the thief steal, the burglar rob by night, the
drunkard die of kidney disease, the cashier doctor his books, the
banker play with depositors money, the wife or husband walk
along the crumbling edges of separation and disgrace?
For, surer than the intermittent Outbursts of the volcano, are
the results of crime and deceit. They hang ready to topple up on
those who dare them. Life everywhere is SCARED with the plain
evidences of their destructive force. What is the incident of
volcanic eruption, once in 100 years or longer, to the continue
destruction that men bring upon themselves by living under thei
own VOLCANOES?
The VOLCANOES forces of human nature lie ready to break out il
all of us. The only safe way is to suppress them. Those who hv
close to the volcano take chances.
Too many young and older men are building in the path of
lava flow that has whelmed its fifty thousands and fifty time
fifty thousands.
Better move now.

IT'S NO PLEASURE TRIP

The president is off on his circle swing. He will make nine
teen set speeches on the trip, discuss the points on which he is
to base his candidacy for denomination and reelection, eat too
many dinners and generally strive to get acquainted and to make
a good impression. He will be met at his stopping points by COM
mittees, eat and talk and be entertained. There will be crowds,
mostly of the curious, to "look at a president" Not to listen
especially, for those interested in the presidential utterances will
read them in the newspapers.
The busting are over with in this country. The platforms
have been torn down. Publicity and argument, invectfve and
praise belong now to the press columns, news and editorial. Spell
bind as he may the s~pelbinder can't get them close enough to
him to weave his spell. The victim merely waits until the rural
delivery man goes by and then walks down to the gate, gets his
Courier and reads all about it. Worst of all from the s~pellbinder's
standpoint he reads it cold ~bloodedly, shorn of the silver tongue
and reads it as he would the multiplication table and sees where
2x2 doesn't equal 5.
It's so different from the time away back then when six
counties hitched their teams of horses and oxen to lumber wagons
and pilgTimaged to Freeport to hear Lincoln and Douglas fix
the future of slavery on the American continent; when later trains
and democrat buggies carried thousands and even tens of
thousands to hear Bob Ingersol paint the opposed pictures Of
republicans and democrats or to hear Foraker foghorn the civil
war attitude of the democratic party. Even later they crowded
to listen to Bryan weave his web of free silver with hypnotic
tongue; but hardly any farmer took a paper then and only now
and then a viLlager. 1t was a badge of minor distinction to the
tOwnsman who took the Tribune, Inter Ocean or Times. A poll
lical %spellbinder draws about as big a crowd nowadays as a hard
ware salesman.
1t will not be a good time for the president. He will eat too
much and will worry all the while. Uneasy lies the head that
wants to be president or governor or even sheriff. There's no
fun in politics for the candidate. He is greeted with suspicion
where he once met with confidence, if not with subservience. He
awaits the turn of the cards on a gamblers chance with a gam
blers anxiety.
Meantime the farmer sows his seed and wheat, oats, barley
and peas grow and he sits on the front porch reading his paper
and making up his mnd-just like that.

FORD REFUSES TO START.

Mr.. Ford denies his candidacy for the presidency. He says
he is too busy, which is probably true. A business like that of
Mr.. Fords takes pretty near all of a mans time.
If Mr.. Ford means what he says and isn't simply playing to
be urged more his announcement is a matter for actual relief
For, while Mr.. Ford is the greatest maker and seller of cheap
ears in the world, thoughtful persons have been much worried
over the mere possibility that he might become president of the
United States.
The automobile is a comparatively new thing. Mr.. Ford
knows about 1t, knows it from the beginning, but that beginning
began within the memory of young men. The u. S. A. was not
invented. 1t grew. 1t required the entire past to grow in. 1t
is the bloom of human experience. In short it is the result of
thousands of years of experience, struggle and growth. 1t isn't
a gas engine and a handful of pressed steel. While Mr.. Ford knows
the gas engine well the country is convinced that he doesn't know
much about the history behind the republic and that he hasn't
the ability to anayze the forces that keep it going and climbing
the hills in front of it. In short the impression is that he would
stall the engine, possibly on a railroad track.
Mr.. Ford represents one phase of success, that of the in
dividual. The conviction is that he doesn't and cannot represent
the wider success for which the U. S. stands. We talk freely
about the business man in politics but it is not of record that the
average successful business man proves to be a shining example
OF successful craftsmanship. That job requires more. 1t demands
not only the hard sense of the business man but the understanding
that comes with study of men and nations since nations were
organized and requires the vision of the true ideaIst. Wher
such a combination has been found we shall have the ideal presi
dent of the United States. But that is not Mr.. Ford.
Roosevelt was a good business man. The list of his invest
ments made public after his death proved that. They were sane
safe investments.
He was not notably rich but well to do as that term applies
to present conditions. The man was wide in his reading, catholic
in his conclusions, courageous of act and utterance,. wise in th
scaly and mentally. He had with his native force and ability
the equipment to control and guide those forces. That is VIII,
Roosevelt was a leader, not of classes but of the nation. MIR
Ford is the anthhesis of Roosevelt.
The country will be much better satisfied with Milford a
the motor master. 1t can scarcely spare hin thence. Perhap
ne will soon announce another cut in the price of cars, an &C
always gratefully received except by the other car makers. What

new THEATER Opens
! To CROWDED HOUSE

The new Rialto theater, Bozeman's
new home for screen shows, opened
Saturday evening to two crowded
houses, and many were the express
sions of praise accorded the new the
alter. A few minutes after the show
opened it was necessary for Manager
McCune to close the doors for the
first show, and there was a goodly
line waiting at the end of the first
performance.
Nothing has been neglected in the
new show house to make it both at
tractive and comfortable for the pat
rons, and that they appreciated this
was shown by the many expressions
of appreciation accorded Manager Nc
Cune. The show house is not large
seating about $50, but it is a little
gem in every way and the decorations
and lighting effects make it especial,
ly attractive to those of its patrons
who love beautiful surroundings.

where there were held 70 100 per cent
meetings, a record never before ap-
preached in the history of any sim

sketches of different talks and feat
ures of the convention, and told the
Rotarians present that every n OF
them had good reason to feel proud
because of his membership in the
order.
Ralph Schuyler, president of the
club, called attention of the members
to the fact that the $3.50 necessary to
finance the Boy Scouts had not beer
raised, though several members haC
turned in more than their allotted

ington people refusing to hold Bailey.
Bailey was arrested in Bozeman,
March Is, for petit larceny and was
sentenced to serve six months in the
county Jail. After serving little
more than a month, Bailey was pa
rolled that he might work on the Nc

couple of days Bailey was sent on a
saddle horse on an errand. He never
showed up again, and later the horse
fully saddled and bridled, was found
many miles from home. Bailey had
disappeared.
Later the man was apprehended in

Wilson SPEAKS At
ROTARY LUNCHEON

Fred F. Wilson was the principal
speaker at the Rotary luncheon held
Tuesday evening at the Kramer Cafe,
in the Elks' building. Mr.. Wilson,
who was the official delegate of the
club to the thirteenth Rotary inter
national convention in Los Angeles
last year, gave his report on the con-
vention, a report delayed one year
through Mr.. Wilson's illness.
1t was an interesting talk. Not
only did Mr.. Wilson gain a new idea
of the significance and scope of Ro-
tary by attending the convention, but
his impressions were so vivid that
even after q year has elapsed he was
enabled to impart some of them to his
audience. He told Of the size Of the
convention, that the hall seating a.
600 people could not begin to hold tbs
crowd of 5000 Rotarians who had
thronged to Los Angeles.
Mr.. Wilson told of the elaborate
preparations made by the Californis

and other institutions, the wonderful

CHOICE IMMIGRATION.

One thousand Scotch immigrants,
including II mechanics under 80
years of age, with a background of
seven years as apprentices, arrived
in New York recently. That is the
kind of immigration that counts-up-
standing, Independent, Woodworking
and thrifty young men, trained to
give value received for their service.
1t is said these men worked for
$40 a week in their native land. In
all probability they will soon be re-
ceiving that much a day, and saving
the most of it. That they will make
good American citizens goes without
saying. Scotch character is felt all
over the nation today in business and
church and society generally. One
third of the presidents of the United
States, an exchange recalls, have had
Scotch blood in their veins.
