SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANpER JOHNSON.

No Santa Claus. ,
There isn't any Santa Claus,
And I am rather glad because
II Santa were not all bluff
He might not be quite saint enough
To sidestep his temptation great
Monopoly soon to create
OF Christmas toys and Christmas Joys
So suitable for girls and boys.
Let mother dear, and father, too,
Their customary way pursue.
Expressing the affection deep.
That tolls along while others sleep,
That made a fairy tale Of yore
To prove that love and nothing more
Inspired the service and the gift
Content the gratitude to shift
To Fancy's mood, which fits so well
The land o. dreams where children
dwell,
Yet dearer it must be to know
They are our own who love us So
And so I'm rather glad because
There isn't any Santa Claus.

"Tt is to be doubted whether this
Polynesian poteutate has more
sumptuous quarters i'm his far-off

prepare for royalty yesterday he was
ready this morning 60 mako the

The death Of Samuel Gompers re-
moves man, genuinely great, yet
never fully understood. It was his
fate to be feared in the industrial
world as a possible radical influence,
and to be antagonized in his own Or
ganization because Of his conserv.
atism.

the sum Of $68, 400.
Within the last few weeks a cor
tract has been let to relocate and re-
build that portion Of the Yellowstone
trail over the Bozeman hill at a cost
Of $4,000, this expense being shared
by the county Of Gallatin, the federal
government and the Northern Pacific
railroad. When We consider the won
derful improvement made in the Yel-
lowstOne trail in the past few years,
certainly We have every reason to
hope that in the not far distant fu-
ture this trail will be either paved or
graveled across the entire county.

Pays Respects to Fall,

DenOuncing the Republican
party for what he asserted to be
It's lack of principle, claiming
that it's only foundation is the
protective tariff and it is slip
ing on that, pointing to the oil
and other scandals as evidence
of an imminent national deca-
dence similar to that which de-
strOyed Rene and other ancient
civilizations, and. praising Sen
atOr Walsh as one of the nations
greatest statesmen, Senator Ash
u-st Of Arizona last night dis
cusSed the national political sit
uation from the Democratic an
gle at the Emerson auditorium.
URGES PEOPLE TO VOTE
"As citizens Of this republic You
voters are stockholders in tne might

clared Election day gives YOU ali
a chance and an opportunity to
choose your board of directors ana
to have some say as to how the al

be conducted for the nezt four years.
1t is not only your privilege to
vote-it is your duty t. :our gov
ernment. And the Stacker in civic
duty is no less reprehensible than the
Stacker in military duty"
The speaker then reviewed the
HISTORY Of the great political parties
which have arisen and fallen in this
country, pointing out that they died
as soon as they abandoned the prin-
lciples upon which they were founded,
and he asserted that the Republican
party is going the way of the Fed
eralists and the Wings.
The Democratic party, founded up
on the principle that all citizens have
equal rights and equal responsible
tiles under a free government, still
stands upon those principles, he de-
clared.
Wilson's Idealism Abandoned
Paying a touching tribute to the
late President Wilson, praising his
idealism and extolling him for his
leadership in peace and war, Senator
Ashurst declared that in 1920 the is
sue was "Idealism vs.. Materialism'
and the latter won.

Declaring that the barrage of
propaganda being released by
the organs of the big interests
in Montana and the spell-binders
for the opposition wherein he is
charged with every political
crime upon the docket is but a
smoke screen to obscure the real
issue of the state campaign in
Montana this year, producing
facts and figures to prove this
statement and giving n account
of his stewardship as governor
of this state for the p4St four
years, Governor Joseph NJ. Dixon
held a capacity house at the
Emerson school, auditorium for
nearly three hours Monday
night.
Brown Presides -.
R. E. Brown, state committeeman
from Gallatin county; presided at the
meeting sni with him on the plat
form besides Governor Dixon and At

!. an candidate for the office viii
h. now holds by appointment, were
v l. Stockton, president Of the Mon
tGHa State Farm Bureau; W. E. Har~
N n, Republican candidate for state
treasurer; Postmaster W. J. Fran
sham; County Chairman Allen Sales
and George Lewis of Manhattan, re-
tiring state committeeman.
Mr.. Brown called attention to the
fact that Governor Dixon was too
well known to the people of Gallatin
county to require an extended intro
duction, and that the governor is now
running upon the same platform up
on which he was elected four years
ago and which he has so ably carried
out despite the bitter opposition of
the big interests of Montana.
In introducing Major Foote he call
ed attention to that gentleman's bril-
liant war record. Major Foote spoke
briefly, praising the record made by
Major Sheridan and other Gallatin
county men with whom he served in
/ France.
81 have been in the attorney
generals office for the past four
years" he said. Il am fully con
versant with its duties and will

and for the best interests of the
people for the remainder of my
term regardless of the verdict at
the polls in November and if l
am reelected l will continue to
serve the people of the state in
the same manner"
Major Foote called attention tc
the many important matters now be-
ing handled by his office which are
of vital Importance to the public OF
Montana, among them the tax profess
actions brought by the Montana Pow
er company.

The telephone business is different
from most other enterprises. When a
telephone company needs more men it
Is impossible to secure workers trained
In the telephone industry. There is
only one place to learn the telephone
business and that is with the tele-
phone company Itself.
When additional help is needed in
the telephone business there is only
one thing to do, ie., hire intelligent
men and teach them the telephone
work.
The Bell Telephone Company of
Pennsylvania maintains schools where
every phase of construction, mainten-
ance and installation work can be
learned. The school in Philadelphia
is a very large institution. 1t occu-
pies an entire floor Of a large building.
Upon entering this school one is struck

telephone circuits and how TO install

who have been with the company and

work.
The instructors teach their pupils BY
the use of lectures, charts and motion
