WHAT MONTANA State COLLEGE MEANS
TO BOZEMAN and GALLATIN COUNTY

Written by President Alfred Atlin.
son and issued by the BOzeman
Chamber of Commerce.
It is a well known fact that an in
stitutiOn of higher education draws
heavily from the country immediate
ly surrounding it. This fact is as
true at the State college here in Mon
tana as at any other higher educa-
ticnal institutions over the country.
AS any city grows it endeavors to be-
come the seat Of some higher edu-
cational institution in order to give
its young people this advantage of
nearness to college.
In Thirty-First Year
Montana State college was created
in 1893 and is now in its thirty-first
year of service. In that time the
State college has registered 1876
students from various parts of the
state. Of this number 2,s86 students
have been registered from GaIlatir
county.
Here is an important figure for the
people Of this county to remember,-
that almost Is per cent Of the tota
registration at Montana State collegi
has come from Gallatin county. Il
proves that people Of the county
have taken advantage Of their eduea
tional opportunity and that thes,
trained people are now among th,
prosperOus citizens Of~thiss district. i

INSISTS Upon RECOGNITION
and ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT Of DEBTS

Washington, Feb. The dignified
yet constant reiteration on the part Of
President Coolidge that the debts
owed to the United States by foreign
nations must be paid and cannot be
cancelled, is making its impression in
all foregn capitals. The president in
so stating the American case is
standing upon firm foundation, for
this same thought is imbedded in the
platform Of the Republican party
adopted at its national convention in
Cleveland.
The attitude Of the United States
is not merely that of a creditor ma
tion which with a sheriff Rt hand IS
demanding that a forced sale be con-
dueted in order that the money due
may be paid, but rather nation
which, ia the case Of France, is de-
intending that q fair acknowledgement
Of the debt be made and that a dis.
position and Willingness to pay be
put upon the record.
Even Ii this the American attitude
IS not based alone on the desire e
secure return Of money honestly
llcnned but back Of It u feelini
that Ire REBUILDING of EnrOpe esr
only BE- successfully accomplished :.

the moral stamina of the people is
sustained. That any American course
which would allow the French people
to ignore the debts would work for
their moral weakening and would mil
itate against the upbuilding which we
all consider most important for the
good Of the world.
French officials are apparently en-
gaged in fishing expedition in the
hopes Of establishing for their own
satisfaction how far they can 90 in
delaying recognition Of the debt and
payments. The French people Of
themselves, however, are ready to
recognize their obligations. There are
some Of our own people enthused
over the prosperity Of our nation and
the surplusses in the national Treas
ury, who have discussed cancellation
Of the French debt as q happy and
incidental solution of the relations
between the two countries, but debt

SENATORS WOULD
REPEAL PRIMARY
Law in MONTANA
II Members Sponsor Referen-
dunn Measure for Substitute
for Present Unsatisfactory
System
Party Lines Ignored in Effort
to Bring About Change
in Procedure

Nine Republican and three
Democratic members of the
Montana senate are sponsors Of
a bill to repeal the primary law
of the state and substitute the
convention system in state and
county nominations, beginning
however, with a primary caucus.
The bill bears a referendum
clause submitting the measure
to vote of the people.
The bin provides that the state
central committee shall meet on the
first Monday in July in every even
numbered year, and issue a call for
a state convention of the party, fix
ing the date which shall not be less
than DO days nor more than IS days
prior to the date of the general cleo
ton to be held in that year.
The committee fixes the basis of
representation and designates the
place where the state convention
shall be he'd and the hour of it's
meeting. In presidential years the
committee meets on the first Mon
day in April and fixes a date for
state convention to nominate dele
gates and alternates to the national
convention, not mere than 80 dayS
prior to the meeting of the national
convention.
County Follows Suit
Within 10 days after the call
issued by the state committee the
county committee shall Emeet and
issue a call fer a county convention
to be held not more than 10 days
prior to the date designated for
holding the state convention. They
shall fix the number of delegates to
which each of the precincts of the
county is entitled on the basis Of
representation described, name the
date of the convention, the place it is
to be held, and the hour.
The county clerk and recorder
then calls the precinct primary
meetings, delivering a list of regis
tered voters of each precinct to each
precinct committeeman. The clerk
designates the precinct meeting
places and the time, between II
o'clock noon and 9 O'Clock p. m.
Notices are to be posted and also
published in a newspaper Of general
circulation.
All primary precinct meetings are
to be held the same day by the same
party and no other political parties
are to hold the primary meetings the
same day. -
Penalty is Severe
It shall be unlawful for any per
son not a qualified and registered
elector in the precinct where the
: meeting is held, to vote at such
. meeting or who does not intend to
affiliate with the political party at

EXTENSIONS OF TIME

Under the provisions cf the Reve-
nue. Act of 1924, the collector is no
authorized to grant extensions
Of time within which to file income
tax returns. All persons or firms de-
string an extension of time for the
filing of returns, should make appli-
cation therefor direct to the commits
sioner of internal revenue, Washing
ton, D. c., and such application should
be mailed in time to reach Washing
ton before March Is.
Corporation Dividends
Under the revenue act of 1924 all
corporations who paid dividends

one individual, partnership, or cor
poratiOn during the calendar year
1924 must file an infolmation return

ed incomes up to s10,000.OO, and that

Avoid Delinqueneies

The 1924 income tax law, while it
very materially aeduced the normal
tax rates, and altered some Of the ad-
ministratiye provisions of the law,
did not in any manner relieve the
liability of taxpayers to file returns.

Whether the house of repre-

This writer had some real hard chills
last week. Those were the first we
have had since we were 16 years old,
40 years ago.
We heard a fellow say the other day
that if his creditors would let him
alone he would tear up something when
he gets his cotton bolls snapped, but
if those sharppointed duns continue he
will land in the bug house sure.
Poor old farmer, he has got it in the
neck again and the whole country is
mourning with him. And well they
might for farming is the base of all
living and all wealth.
Now, we are not going to tell any
more dog or hog tales but we want to
tell about q horse we own, that shows
degree of intelligence that is almost
human. When riding him to hunt the
cows he will hear the bell before his
rider does and will go and round 'em
up If given the rein. When riding him
to town he will hear old Henry honk-
ing away in the rear long before his
rider does and will turn to the right.
Many times he wants to break off to
the Warm Corner mountains. We be-
lieve that he has been ridden to wild
cat still and wants to go back. Now
we want to sell this horse to Hunter
Perrin or someone else who has the
nerve to halter blind tiger and bride
white mule and lead them in on the
frontier. Price 500. Phone %.
