CHILD'S CASKET
FOUND AT HOTEL

A report was in circulation
Friday that a chiid's casket had
been found buried behind one Of
the walls of the Montezuma Ho-
tel building, now being torn down.
The report was untrue insofar as
it had the casket found between
the old walls. The casket was
discovered in the frame building
back of the hotel and the only
mystery connected with the dis
covery is in regard to how it got
there. The coffin was inside a
box with the lid screwed down
tight and between the box and
the casket were several copies of
La Prensa, newspaper publish
ed at San Antonio, bearing the
date of November %, 1921. The
casket is about three feet long
and in fine condition.

SO-Called Republicans and Democrats
Sell Out the Whole Business and
Deliver the Goods. A Rotten Deal
Where the Democrats Get Left.
A great amount Of interest was
taken in the city eelction ON Mon
day and hard work was done on both
sides and especially for Mayor Ram
sey in the First, Second, and Fourth
wards. The result was mOr of a
surprise than is usual, the Republi-
cans having elected everything, ex-
cept mayor and attorney, by unusual
majOrites and yet being Defeated by
a large majority ON the head of the
ticket.
For several years a certain cOmbi-
nation in the city has been charged
with being largely instrumental in
carrying the city elections first n
way and then another, and this year
is no exception. The deal was a little
different than usual this year, the
result of dissatisfaction on the part
of the people with the administration
of city marshal. So apparent was the
fact that no man could be elected
mayor Of the city who vas pledged
to continue Jack Robertson in office
that after Mayor Ramsey's nOmina
ton he authorized a denial that he
would appoint that individual in the
event Of his election. In the light Of
the election result and Of certain
things that are apparent, it is plain
that this was a subterfuge. A plain
understanding was had with Mayor
Ramsey that he would appoint a So
called Republican and to shape mat
tiers so that he would be apparently
forced to do so the deal contemplated
the election of a pronounced Repub-
lican majority in the city council.
Republican traitors and tricksters are
not alone responsible for the rotten
deal; the disgrace must be shared by
Democratic traitors as well. Mayor
Ramsey and his supporters have the
satisfaction Of knowing that he was
elected by the deliberate slaughter
Of every aldermanic candidate on the
Democratic ticket. The Republican
candidate for mayor and the Demo-
/ cratic candidates for aldermen were
not defeated because of personal feel
ing but by traitors who worked for
their nomination and voluntarily
pledged their support and then de-

fortunately been few and far between.
Yet u county tax levy has been
steadily en- the increase.
The same is true in regard to our
municipal taxes. Starting out with
a tax levy Of about four mills, the an
nual levy has been steadily increased,
until last year it reached II mills on
the dollar, with the assessment, too,
at the estimated full cash value of all
property listed. Our bonded indebted
ness reaches nearly the constitutional
limit, and we have a combined city
hall and auditorium to show for it.
We have no paved or macadamized
streets, nor any water works, gas
works, or electric lights except such
as we pay a heavy monthly OF yearly
rental for, and yet our taxes in the
aggregate r even now much higher
than they are IN any other western
city-even such as absolutely own
and control some or all Of the natural
franchises referred to.
The state and county tax last year
was Is mills, the city tax II mills,
special school tax two mills, making
an aggregate of % mills. It is hardly
likely that any Of the specific taxes
will be reduced this year, and as we
have just voted an additional special
school tax of two mills, the aggregate
tack levy this year in the city Of Boze.
man will, in all probability, be 80
mills. = =
If BOzeman had the improvements
to show for it, there would be less
cause for complaint. The cry has
been raised that the city cannot afford
to pave or macadamize Main street,
but the fact is that if part Of the
money which has been almost wasted
in various ways, had been expended
judiciously, Main street could today
be as fine a business street as there
is in the west.

tended school only seven months
showed good training on the teachers
parb and application on their own. In
addition to the regular class work in
writing, spelling, arithmetic, Ian
guage, geography, etc., several CT the
grades showed specimens Of drawing
that indicated that the teachers had
given considerable attention to that
branch. Under the same head may
be included some decorative work,
probably done more as a recreation
than as a task, which showed taste
and ~painstaking care.
The papers Of the high school
pupils showed that they were doing
some excellent work. Indeed, the ex-
hibit as a whole spoke well for the
thoroughness of the work done by
the teachers and and the pupils, and
for the efficiency Of the system EN-
ployed. C~Ommendable progress was
shown in all grades and the people Of
the city have reason to feel an in
creased pride in the schools and their
work.
Among the large number who visit
ed the exhibit on Saturday were many
of the young pupils themselves, each
ready to point out his work. The en-
listment Of the child's interest and
ambition is the foundation for good
work which the teachers proper in
structiOn and training may secure.

EXCESSIVE
Why Should Our Government Cost Us
So Much?

1t seems to be the fashion now-a-
days to designate as a "kicker'' any
citizen who has the independence and
manhood either to advocate or to in
sist upon the observance of the Ordi-
nary rules Of economy in the admin
istratiOn of public affairs. A news
paper also usually comes in for sim
liar Characterization from certain
classes whenever it directs attention
to and condemns extravaganza and
prOfligacy on the part of public Of
fcials. Ii comes because those who
have the least interest in such mat
ters-those who have everything to
gam and nothing to lose by the most
reckless public expenditures-are gen.
orally the most persistent and loudest
takers, have no other visible means
Of support, and r virtually bar
nacles on the body polite and the pub
lie treasury.
But the Avant Courier Is not to be
deferred from its conscientious sense
CT right and duty to the public either
by the sOphistries Of the peoples pre-
tended friends or the inconsiderate
stigmas Of open enemies.
The question Of excessive taxation
is a serious condition and not a vague
theory that ~cOnfrOnts the permanent
citizens Of Bozeman. It is not only
a heavy burden that rests with OPP
pressive weight each recurring year
upon every freebooter within the city
limits, but it is the Uavenous beast
that deters many a home seeker,
many a manufactures, many a CAPT
talist from making permanent i'm
provements in our otherwise attrac-
tive city.
Almost the first question asked by
a visiting, wOuld-be investor is:
"What is your present rate Of tax
ation and what are the prospects in
that direction for the future?"
As we have heretofore stated, dur
ing the past few years both our coun-
ty and cur municipal taxes have been
steadily increasing. The same may
be said Of our school taxes, although,
Of course, we have so much TO show
for Them that they are submitted to
without much complaint
But what with the state taxes,
county taxes, city taxes, and special
school taxes, making in the aggre-
gate within the city limits about 80
