RADICALS ATTEMPT
To gain CONTROL
FORMER NON-PARTISANS SEEK
TO CONTROL FUNDS OF
WHEAT GROWERS

An attempt to gain control Of large
financial reserves Of the Montana
Wheat Growers Association for use
in a ralical political campaign and to
purchase Anticipated St. Paul elevator
properties now held by the receivers
of a defunct farm organization, has
just been called to the attention Of
the members Of the cooperative con-
Germ by the Lewistown headquarters.
The attempt to gain possession of the
association funds, according to the in
formation sent to members, is headed
by State Senator Charles E. Taylor Of
Plentywood, a member Of the COM
munist group at St. Paul recently
outlawed by Senator LaFollett, and
August Nelson an ex-emplOye of the
organization who was discharged
some time ago.
The radical group seeks to gain
control of the marketing associations
funds by placing representatives IN
the board Of directors at the election
which will be held July 81. By petit
tion the names of candidates coRsid-
cred amenable to the schemes Of the
Taylor-Nelson ring have been placed
on the election ballots, with the hope
that a light vote would permit the
radical group to muster enough
strength to elect them.

articles attacking the present board

1t is understood that the fight of

the organization and gain possession
of its funds started when the direc-

the stand that the reserves were the

METAL Mines TAX
WILL BE VOTED ON
CHAIRMAN MCCORMACK THANKS
COMMITTEE MEMBERS FOR
THEIR ACTIVE WORK

Following a successful campaign
for the securing Of sufficient sigma
lures Of voters to petitions to sub
nit a metal mines tax to the people
in the next general election in No
vember as an initiative measure to
provide additional funds fOc state
purposes, one half Of which is to go
to defray the expenses of the common
schools, w. S. Mccormack, of Kalis-
pell, chairman of the committee in
charge Of the circulation of petitions,
has sent a letter of appreciation to
the members, the independent weekly
newspapers, and others who assisted
in any way in the work.
The names of over 800 persons
who circulated the petitions are
known and there are numerous 9TH
ers who sent in petitions fully filled
out who neglected, or forgot, to sign
their names showing from whom the
petitions came.
Far Beyond Quota
Under the law 1879 names were
required and at least % counties.
The committee completed AZ county
quotas with a total Of 1926 names
reaching the secretary of state. There
were several hundred names on pc
titiOns that did not reach county
clerks and recorders in time for GER
LITIGATION.
In only eight of the 55 counties of
the state were insufficient signatures
obtained to complete their quotas.
Those are Beaverhead, Cascade, Deer
Lodge, Glacier, Granite, Mineral
Madison and Silver Bow.

cratic contention that the sale of
farm products to Europe has declin-
ed under the republican administra-
ton, and this is blamed to the tar

referring TO our war sales. But
when they are compared with the
pre-war sales, the result is exceeding

Europe last year far exceeded our

Editor Washington Times:
IN your issue Of December 3,
i DIR. Crane says: "The danger
Is the person who crosses the
street in the middle Of the block
is fifteen times greater than that
involved in crossing at the cor
ner."
The learned doctor urges that
laws be passed against crossing
streets except at corners. Danger
in crossing at corners is three
times as great as crossing else
where because Of that many
more directions to watch for dan
ger which sometimes is confusing
to the most thoughtful, cool and

them as we do other fool laws and

RN HE marYelg or radio; the
transmission of speech, OF
portraits and OF scenes across
the ocean; the aeroplane; the auto,
and all the wonderful advances
that modern civilized life has wit
messed, are the products and the
proofs Of mental evolution.
Indeed, the things mentioned
have come to us 50 suddenly and
so swiftly that they might be
called evidences of a mental mu-
tation, like the abrupt changes
that occasionally occur in the
world of physical life.
Civilization fs an outward pic
ture of the mind. Mental evolution
is an unfolding of latent intel
lectual powers, which nlanifests
itself usually in such forms as
machinery, while at the same time
1t transforms ideas and, the trend
of mems thoughts.
The wall paintings OF the pre-
historic cavennen are vestiges OF
some Of the early steps in mental
evolution. They are the fossils
of primal age Of human men
tally, buried In the strata Of past,
time.
Strange Sights for Job.
Mental evolution 'has been a
slow process. Just as in the ami
NAL and plant kingdoms, so in the
kingdom of the mind there are
elementary forms OF a universal
character which have hardly
changed at all. Job, in his up
rightness and his IDEAS of right
and justice, not only stood on as
high level as ours, but there are
limitations in the glimpseS we
get of human association in its
earliest phases that almost from
the beginning man has remained
little changed in the fundamental
morality of his judgments.
But bring Job back and set him
down in an American town, or
put him aboard q passenger.
carrying aeroplane, or let him
hear a voice from the other side
OF the earth singing in his ear,
or see the cedars Of Lebanon
from the banks OF the Mississippi.
He might make an excellent
Judge, for he would still find
himself at home in the world OF
ethics, but all the rest would be
far beyond his comprehension.
They would be to him as: Things
too wonderful for me, which I
knew not"
Yet these very wonders are
simply the product Of the mental
evolution of the race of man, and
therefore they lay in germ in the
mind Of the old patriarch moral
izing on his sands. Nay, the po-
tentiality of these things was in
the brain of the Mousterians
when they kept their caverns
against savage bears and tigers,
and Of the Gro Magnons when
they carved rude ivory Venuses,
and pictured mammoths by lamp
light in the depth Of caves where
sunshine has never penetrated.
Mans Powers Unchanged.
Z, What else can it have been
than mental evolution that
brought mankind from such be-
ginnings to it's present height?
Anatomy pronounces that the
skulls of the Gro Magnons were

Himself pointed to an evolution
in man akin to this by His IN
sistence upon the power OF faith
to produce physical effects, and
upon the possibility for His dis

the best that we have hitherto
accomplished deep into the shade.
