A sLOGAN

Soon we will again hear the old slogan, "Do
your Christmas shopping early"
Why not adapt this slogan to other things?
There is, for instance, the buying of coal, that
indispensable necessity for our we'll being and
comfort.
1t may seem strange to think of a "Buy coal
early" movement, but there is far more justi-
ficatiOn for it than there is for many other move
ments.
The coal industry is one which, because of the
rapid deterioration of it's product, is not conductive
to the accommodating of reserve stocks of any size
Consequently the majority of our mines are
worked on a part-time basis only, and when the
peak of the load" hits them in winter, they are
hard pressed to supply the normal demand. Il
unusually severe weather prevails for any length
of time, somebody suffers.
The "Buy coal early" slogan is not so unimpOr
tant as it may seem. If it were needed, lOca
dealers would be in a position to meet emergen
cies, and ~householders would have no fear of
cold snap.
And while we're at it, let's remember not onI
to "buy at home" but to "buy a home product
Montana mines yield just as good coal as can b
found anywhere in this part Of the country, an
far better than can be found in many sections

terests in common, and should go far towards
establishing closer cooperation, without which
nothing of value can be accomplished.
AprOpOs of this, it is interesting to note the
sentiment of one prominent resident of the Gate
way city. Not long ago, while cOnversing with
J. H. Dawes of this city, Judge H. J. Miller of
Livingston deplOred the rivalry that exists be-
tween the two cities.
"There is no real ground for friction between
Livingston and Bozeman," Judge Miller said. "AIl
these little and unimpOrtant differences should
be sidetracked, and we should pull together es-
pecially in regard to the entrance to Yellowstone
National park. There is glory and business
enough for both communities, for the natural
trend of traffic should be either into the Park
via Livingston and out of it by way of West
Yellowstone and BOzeman, or vice versa. Neither
city can gain anything by quarreling over it, and
wiser cOunsels should prevail"
This is a sentiment that appeals to a great
many Bozeman folk, and to a gOOdly percentage
of Livingston citizens as we'll, and it is one that
we heartily and unhesitatingly endorse. Rivalry
of a friendly nature is all right, but rivalry that
entails a tinge of bitterness and i'll will reacts
strongly upon those who aid and abet it. Living
stOn, our nearest neighbOr of size, is a good neigh
Dor, with friendly, progressive people and with an
ambition to make the most of her advantages.
The same may be said for Bozeman. Neither
should wish to flourish at the expense of the
other. Let's work tOgether-we get more sub
stantial results with less expenditure of energy,
not to speak of the most desirable friendship that
such cooperation ~engenders.

OUR HOME MARKET

Despite all dire predictions to the contrary, the
foreign trade of the United States now is greater
in volume and in value than ever before in peace
times. It was believed by many that cheap Euro
pean competition, and the fact that the United
States is creditor to nearly all the world, would
seriously conflict with our international trade.
Happily, this was an erroneous opinion. =
The Chicago News points out one fact in re-
ference to our which is frequently
overlooked:
Another important factor in Americas fore
ign trade is, of course, the size of the home mar
ket. This country is so much more pOpulous than
are competing manufacturing countries and its
power Of consumption is so great that it can
attain a vast volume Of output, and consequently
cheapness of production, simply by supplying the
domestic demand. American industry is not
based on foreign markets, but on domestic con-
sumption. On that alone it is able to build fac
tories that produce goods on a scale not attain
able in competing countries"
This is undoubtedly true, says the National
Republic, and it follows logically that our i'm
mense home market has been built up and pre-.
served for home industries by the protective tar
iff. It is the belief of the prOtectionist that the
home market-that is, the American markets
the best and the richest in the world, and that il
saving it as far as possible for our own producers
we promote the welfare Of all our people; capital
lists, workers, business men, and farmers. Then
with the big home market as a foundation, oul
producers are able to compete with the rest O.
the world in foreign markets where competition
is practicable.

'eTHIS WAS A MAN''

Montana has suffered a distinct loss in the
death of former State Senator J. E. Edwards of
Forsyth.
Major Edwards was one of that fine, upstand-
ing type of men who are forceful without being
crude; gentle, but not lacking firmness; success
full without the employment of deceitful cunning,
and possessed of that high order of courage most
discernible in the hour of reverse. Executive
ability of an unusual order was his, and this,
coupled with a happy faculty of winning love from
his friends and respect from his enemies, helped
him far along the road that leads to fame.
Coming to Montana in the days when the state
was known chiefly for it's cattle and mining in
d~ustries, Major Edwards early saw that it was
good and with it decided to cast his lot. He ap-
preached each task and problem with energy and
resourcefulness. He was a builder, and the things
he has left behind testify that he builded well.
He realized his responsibilities as one of the Trea-
sure States leaders in business and in civic life,
performed his many duties with cheerfulness and
dispatch, and contributed nightly to fastening
the development of the commonwealth.
Major Edwards was a staunch Republican of
the old school. He was ever ready to defend the
principles he believed to be right and for the best
interests of his constituents, his state, and his
nation. Well and with discretion did he WELD
the influence that was his and if at times he
made mistakes, they were honest ones. The Re
publican party in Montana has lost, in the death
of Major Edwards, an advisor whose place will
be hard to fill. For his unselfish and invaluable
public services Montana owes a debt that can be
repaid only by hOnoring his memory.
Let those who knew him most intimately sing
his praises as a friend, as a husband, and as a
father. Those who missed that delightful exper-
fence must content themselves with speaking OF
his virtues as a citizen, as a builder, as a leader
But even they can say, with Shakespeare:
"His life was gentle, and the elements

"And say to all the world This was a manp"

AMERICA AND RUBBER

If there were an American rubber producing
industry we should not be at the mercy of the
British rubber combination. In this connection
it is interesting to note that Harvey S. Firestone,
president of the FirestOne Tire and Rubber com
pany, has announced the signing of an agree
ment with the Republic of Liberia on the west
coast of Africa, by which he has obtained lease
of 100000 acres of land suitable for rubber
growing and a 1000 acre rubber plantation now
producing. The lease is for SO years, and Mr..
Firestone plans to expend $1OO,OOO,OOO in it's de-
velOpment. This may help to make England
realize, he says, that America is now in the rubber
business in earnest.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The people
Of the country are with the president
Ito a mar in the matter Of tax reduc-
ton. They have the most absolute
confidence in the program which he
has worked out, and it is just as well
to sound a warming to the Democratic
and near-DemOcratic members Of con-
gress that their cue should be Ito take
up the tax program as presented by
the president and enact it at the earli-
est possible moment. Already whis-
pers are current that certain gentle
men Of imitation Importance, at least,
while approaching the public demand
for tax reduction, are inclined to
manipulate the debate with the hopes
of emphasizing their own persOnali-
ties, and securing some cheap adver-
Using. Unless they have a care, if it
turns out that they do this to
such extent that either the passage of
the bill is delayed or the value of the
bill is impaired in any way, they had
better prepare themselves to stand
the stall. The president has made the
tax reduction program his own and
the people understand it. He is the
one who has fought the issue to the
point where the congressman do not
dare show open opposition to it, and
it will be we'll for them to appreciate
that situation before they embark on
any campaign CT long speech making
which may work harm to the bill it.

The presidents ambition is to have
the tax bill put through in time to
allow the people to profit by the re-
duction when they begin to pay on
March Is, 1926. 1t will be well for
all the self-advertisers to appreciate
the dangers Of the ides Of March. If
through their wind-jamming the meas
ure is delayed and the people are de-
prived Of this immediate reduction
and at that time, they will have to

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The news

of the "high jinks'' doings in the
shipping board, which resulted in the
removal of Admiral Palmer, in silence

thermore, that he refused to make any
comment at the time. This is not
surprising, for this is the way that
Calvin Coolidge does his work. Even
on his return TO Washington he failed
to contribute any excitement, and took
his place at his desk and began the
consideration Of the business which
had accumulated during his absence
in his usual orderly manner. The
presidents ability to set himself apart
from noise and turmoil and ito reach
his Own conclusions as to what is best
for the nation is one Of the great
things which has won for him the con-

half jokingly that he raised the cam

other men collect money for the Gre

cradle truth in this phrasing. The fine
thing about it is that this mpdest man
who, during the campaign, suppressed
