BOLSHEVISM ON THE RUN

According to one political observer, "the next election will
show a defeat of radicalism that will astonish the world and that
will lay the foundation for ten years of sound prosperity in this
country" There is no doubt. as to the result but it will not
astonish this part of the world. The rest of the world NAV ex-
pect the United States to go bolshevik, but the people of the
United States do not, no matter if the Russian Soviets have. or
have not appropriated $~2,250,000 for communist propaganda in
America for the year 1924.
There are many reasons why this country won't 90 boil
shev1k In the November election. In the first place there is a
Joo Tor every one who wants one, at either fair wages or exceed
mgly nigh wages. Laboring men with jobs are not going to take
any chance with a bOlshevik experiment. Of course. there are
some men who have no jobs and don't want them, but thew are
too few to count in a general election. Those men will vote for
radicals, as they always do. Another reason is that savings banks
deposits are now by far the largest in our history. and these
deposits are owned by the masses of the people-people of small
means. Those are the people who furnish the larger protion Of
the VoteS-and they are not going to vote for a class of candidates
VINO tend toward confiscaton of hard-earned bank balances for
the benefit of alien trouble makers.
There are more hOmeowners in the United States than in
any otner great country, and these home owners are not Qoino
oolsnevlk nor even in that direction. They will avoid that tvne
OF candidate who stands for more Government Interference with
private business. They will avoid the semi-boIshevist who ie
boring from within by getting the Government to take over one
actNny after another, taxing the people for the additional cost
incident thereto.

Theosophy is a true philosophy of the Universe, explaining
the nature, the method and the purpose of existence. Based
upon accurate knowledge of the hidden side of things, it pre-
sents a satisfying solution of most of the problems of life and
death. Its spirit is that of service to all living beings; and
through understanding it brings peace. 1t has also been de-
scrlbed as that universal system of science, religion and philosophy
which purpOrts to underle all facts of the Universe.
More fully, TheosOphy (cafed also the Divine Wisdom, Secret
Doctrine, Ancient Wisdom, Sacred Occultsm) is a vast, con-
stanty growing system of fundamental knowledge respecting the
past, the present and in general outlines the future of the Solar
System to which we belong; its inhabitants, sub-human, human
and super-human; its Divine Government; and the universal con-
ditiOns of progress therein.
TheosOphy is derived, not by speculation, but through obser-
walton and scientific study, rigorous and exhaustive, of the inner
side OF Nature and Consciousness by means of supranOrmal facul-
ties which are at least latent in all human beings, but developed
in a few only at the present stage of human evolution. 1t is
in any particular case is complete knowledge, and which, through
For example: supposing oxygen to be the object of investi-
cation, a certain degree of capacity for occult research will enable
the investigator to observe and describe accurately the so-caned
combination with other substances. This might be termed COM
pete knowledge so far as it goes. But further observation will
enable the investigator to describe accurately the much smaller
true atom, the forces playing through it, and those relations
with other similar physical atoms (or all are alike, excepting
that some are positive and some negative) which produce the
kind of matter we call oxygen. This might be termed ultimate
knowledge of this substance.
So also with regard to the observation of, say, the cause

possible to trace the chain of causation from the past-even

HANDsHAKING SAM AND WHEAT PRICES

In the Belgrade Journal of June 5 Handshaking Sam Hampton
who says he is running for governor, attacks the milling in bond
provision of the present tariff law, claiming that "the repeal of
this clause alone would have returned Is or 20 million dollars to
the farmers of Montana as an increase in selling price"
Handshaking Sam did not originate this charge, but had it
handed to him and took it whole from another Sam-Sam Tea
garden of Shelby-who has been braying it wherever he could
get anyone to listen. Probably no one in Galatin county ever
heard OF Sam Teagarden. He is an ex-oil promoter who now,
with Handshaking Sam, is doing a lot of talking on a subject
which apparently they have not investigated even superfcialy
The farmers of Galatin county are interested in the price
of wheat. They are interested in anything that will help make
the AZ cent protective tariff work to their advantage. But they
want facts, not bunk.
The facts are that there isn't a single mill in the TERRITORY
to which northwest wheat moves for milling that is bonded to
mill Canadian wheat for export. Not one mill in the Minneapolis
or Duluth territory, in or around Chicago, or on the Pacific coast.
is bonded to mill Canadian wheat in bond. The only milling of
this character is done by q half-dozen small mills doing an export
ing business exclusively, on the American side of the St. Lawrence
river in the state of New York or that immediate vicinity. To be
accurate, there IS no milling in bond provision in the present
tariff law, but a general manufacturing in bond clause which
covers all manufacturers who wish to give bond to export the
entire product of imported raw materials, and this provision has
been in our tariff laws since the first one became effective in 1889
The amount of wheat that has been imported by this handful
of New York mills, ground, and the flour exported, has not
amounted to two and one half per cent of the volume of wheat
which has been exported from the United States during the past
three years. Anyone with a lick of economic sense knows that
this surplus wheat that must sell to export trade at the world
price is what bothers the American farmer today, and not the
pIttlng trckle of wheat that is miIed in bond on the st. Lawrence
river.
The Courier has been interested enough in this question t.
get at the facts. 1t believes that Handshaking Sam has not don.
so. 1t now invites him to tell its readers Just where these mills
are that do a milling in bond business; how much wheat they
miled in 1921, 1922 and 1923; and exactly how their operation,
affected the price of wheat in this country.
1t is to be noted that recently Handshaking Sam has beer
advertising his paper as the Official Paper of GaIlatin Count,
Farm Bureau" The Galatin County Farm Bureau is a stron,
and active organization composed of some of the ablest farmer
OF the county. They want facts, not buncombe. The Courie
suspects that they may be regarding with some uneasiness tn
political misinformatiOn that is now appearing in what style
itself their official paper.

The study of differences is an inter

TAXES AND HI. C. OF L.

About 1~03,000,0G0 of our citizens pay no direct income taxes,
but they are very directly affected by high taxes, nevertheless.
All of those millions consume food, clothing, fuel and other nee
essities in the process of living, and the prices of all those articles
vary in proportion as taxes are high or low. Changes in the
tax rate and in the method of applying that rate control the
cost of living more than any other single influence.

SAFETY IN THE AIR

The public has refused to get excited about stories
OF the weakness of the United States Navy perhaps for

to slow in naval construction One is the approach
of another armament conference in which the major
powers will insist a still greater reduction of sea
strength Another is the growing Importance of the
airplane rival of the battleship.
Perhaps practical reason the latter is really
the more important. Naval reduction is an excellent
thing, if accomplished without weakening the relative
power of this country on the but naval reduction
would not be so easily accomplished if many war
strategsts doubling the value of warshps and
coming to regard the fighting and bombing plane
master of future warfare.
Aviation authorities point out with telling effect,
that several thousand planes be built for the
price of single dreadnought, and that any dread
chance in modern combat against fleet of 100 bat
of 1t is also possible to control mechani-
cally operated airplanes by radio from distance.
Some experts give that in the next big war
there will be fleets of bombing planes launched against
the enemys warships armies cities without risk

Here is a situation that will have to be faced. AS
long there is adequate international guarantee
for the safety of nations against aggression there must
be defensive armament If it is demonstrable, as 1t
to be, that air armament is already superior to
and land armament that is the kind of armament
to build. Sea fighters may weep at the diversion of
money from naves to air fleets but there may be no
other way to keep theer beloved warships from being
sunk by any hostile power alert enough to take to the
air.

DECENCY TO SAILORS

Sea life will be safer for sailors hereafter because
of decision of the u. S. Circuit of Appeals in San
Francisco That decision establishes the principle that
a sailor need not be at the mercy of 'bucko mate
that the final responsibility for cruel treatment OF
a crew rests with the of vessel
The suit was brought by a sailor named kohllas,
who shipped on the barkentine Rolph, under mate
famous among seamen for his strength, size and
brutality. Kohilas beaten by the mate until he
was blinded in eye and otherwise injured so that
he can no longer serve seaman.
The plaintiff awarded $4,000 damages,
which seems little enough More important than that
is the declaration of the court that in any such case
the acts of ships officer chargeabe to the owner,
because the latter should know what kind of officers
he is employing Moreover says the court, any snip
controlled by improper inhuman officers may be
pronounced unseaworth just if there were defects
in the ship itself, and presumably refused clearance
papers. =,
There is little cruelty on shipboard compared with
what there used to be- especially under the American
seamen's law. But there has been more than there
ought to be- This decision should bring new era OF
humanity at sea and make sailing inviting call

IN MEMORY OF a MULE

mule that died the other day in Collin county,
Tex was not sent the glue factory He was buried
honorably by the in shady nook on the farm,
where he had loved to stand when his days work was
done. He is to have monument over his grave. The
owner saws that merely giving the mule his due he
died at the remarkable age of 36 years, after having
served his master faithfully all his life.
The mule usually lacks appreciation His is a
hard life with little recompense Once In generation
perhaps there comes along some sympathetic person
like Bill Nye who sang, IN one OF his rare poetic out
bursts:
"Oh lonely gentle, unobtrusve mule!
Thou standest idly 'gainst the azure sky
And sweetly, sadly, sngest like hired man.
Rut when the hired man himself so often misses h
mein of praise how shall the less expressive mule VIM
his deserts? In honoring his departed servant, the
Texas farmer honors himself.
