A POLITICAL MOVE.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The I'M
preston is, steadily growing that Sen
atOr Jim Reed, of Missouri, Demo-
crat, in pushing for an investigation
Of senatorial campaign expenses, was
actuated largely by a desire not so
much to conduct an inquest Of past
events as to cripple the Republicans
in the coming campaign. The Repub-
icans have 26 senatorial seats to
fight for this year while the Demo-
Gratis, On the other hand, have to elect
only seven. Their election is gener-
ally conceded by all. In fact the Re-
publicans will need money for their
legitimate campaign expenses, and
the Democrats can do with very little.
Therefore by throwing an order If
this sort into the air, the Democrats
hope to profit if they succeed in any
way in crippling the activity Of the
Republicans in securing legitimate
campaign contributions for thellegit-
innate expenditures Of the campaign.
The same trick was tried during the
1924 presidential campaign, when an
order was put through and a COM
nittee was organized which located
itself in Chicago where the Repub-
lican National headquarters were, and
conducted its spotlight investigation
at that point. But for the fact that
William M. Butler, senator from
Massachusetts, was chairman of the
Republican National committee, and
William v. Hodges, treasurer, men
not apt to be stanpeded by tactics Of
that sort, serious harm might have
been done TO the campaign, especially
as the investigation was run with
particular vehemence at the most
critical election period.

canyon, with its unexcelled scenic charms but
it will also advertise the Galatn valleys beauties,
resources, and opportunities, for the two cannot
be separated. The big publicity drive will focus
attention upon this section in a degree never
before achieved, with the inevitable result that
scores, perhaps hundreds of desirable people will
come here to make their homes. The Gallatin
valley has every advantage possessed by any Sec
tiOn, and many that can be claimed by but few
others. In short, the GalIatin has something of
value to "selP'-and the Milwaukee's advertising
campaign will help to "sell" it.
While this particular service to our county may
be only Incidental to the railway cOmpany's strict
ly business enterprise, nevertheless the Milwaukee
is entitled to whatever credit is due, and such
credit should be spontaneously and generously
given. The benefits will not inure to Three Forks
alone; they will come to all the communities of
the valley in equal measure.
This big publicity move gives us a wonderful
opportunity to institute an energetic constructive
advertising program of our own which, taken with
the other will in time make the Gallatin valley
as widely and as favOrably known as the Imperial
valley of California or any other attractive pro-
ductive section Widespread truthful publicity
is all the Gailatin valley needs to become one of
the most pOpulOus and prosperous areas of it's
kind in the world.

BOOSTING OUR HOME TOWN

Often we are given good, sound advice to the
effect that we should, as far as possible, buy
goods made in America" It is the theory of
protective tariff advocates that when American
goods are bought and consumed, the money helps
keep American workers employed and American
capital active.
It is a good rule, therefore, to patrOnize the
business men Of our community and to purchase,
whenever possible, things manufactured or pro-
duced here. A great many American cities
feature this home consumption campaign Com
munities that observe such patriotic rule always
are numbered among the most progressive in the
country Their business slumps are few and far
between, and often they are prosperous when
other cities and towns, with less civic conscious
ness, are flOundering in the slough of depression.
After all, it is the community in which we live
that shapes our characters and the characters of
our children If the community is clean, pro-
gressive with fine sense of civic PRIDE and with
good institutions, we are likely to be happy and
progressive ourselves. To form such a COM
munity we must keep the civic consciousness alive
and as far as possible, keep our money at home
for local development.

FLAG DAY

June IA is National Flag day. The schools over
the country will observe the occasion with apprO-
pirate exercises 1t is to be hoped that there will
be more universal observance of the event than
ever.
Certainly the setting aside Of one day to pay
tribute to the American flag is appropriate A
flag, in ITSELF means nothing. 1t is an object of
veneration only when it stands for something.
The black flag and the red flag surely do not
belong in that category.
There is every reason, however, why the
thinking and patriotic American should pay a
tribute to his country on June IA by displaying
the colors of Old Glory. The American flag stands
for something. Designed as a standard to SYM
bOlize the establishment of liberty upon this con-
tinent, it has stood always for law and order,
freedom and justice. Under it's starry folds we
have grown from handful of struggling colonies
on the eastern seaboard to the most powerful and
most prosperous nation on earth.
And, strange to say, although we think Of our
country as a comparatively new one, yet our flag
is the oldest in the world in point of continuous
service All other nations have changed the de-
sign and makeup of their standards since our
emblem, the Stars and Stripes, was adopted.
Some nations are a great deal older than ours,
but their flags are not, and nearly all of them
have made radical changes in their forms of gov
ernment since the American Constitution was
adopted.
Therefore, when we honor Old Glory, we should
remember that it is not only the most honorable
but the oldest flag on earth in point of continuous
service. Don't forget to display the Stars and
Stripes on Flag day, June IA!

CREDIT To PRESIDENT.

WASHINGTON, D. c. General
Lord, the director Of the budget, has
given to congress full credit for its
share Of cooperation in the reduc-
tiOn Of governmental expenses. Back
of General Lord and his work, back
Of the retrenchment spirit of con-
gress, the figure of the president
stands all the time, a standard Of
economy and efficiency, and ready 20
accept the responsibility of the final
outcome. AS a result, General Lord
was able to say recently: Federal
agencies today are practicing real
economy, not parsimcny. The total
cost Of government in 1921 was &c.
566,000,000, while in 1925 the COM
parative cost had increased to S11,-
539, 100000. Notwithstanding a re-
ductiOn On federal expenditure of ap-
prOximately two billion dollars, there
has been a net increase in the cost
Of government of approximately two
billion dollars since 1921, with a con-
sequent increase in taxes. In the
work Of retrenchment, congress has
played an important part, and is en-,
titled to the nations friendly and in.
telligent support"

ARE YOU REGISTERED

Another election is approaching. The primaries
this year come on August 3, three weeks earlier
than heretofore. Registration for the primaries
closes June 18, as required by law.
Are you registered? If not, your duty as
citizen of the United States, of the state of Mon
tana, and of Gallatin county demands that you
register now.
Failure to appreciate the privileges and to
exercise the duties of the franchise is one of the
great problems facing this country today. The
nation "of the people, by the people, for the
people" whose citizens do not vote is in danger of
disintegration. Would you strike blow, direc5
or indirect at the very foundation of your govern
ment? You do so when you fail to vote.
By a wise provision of law, registration is made
a necessary preliminary to the exercise of the
franchise The American citizen who fails to. re-
gister is worse off than Esau, who sold his birth
right for a mess of pottage-he not only casts
away priceless privilege and receives nothing
in return, but he saps the vitality of the govern
ment of his country, his state, and his community
In the United States the governing power is
vested in the people. If the people, or any con.
siderable number of them, do not appreciate this
privilege do not realize this responsibility, anC
do not perform the duties incident thereto, feal
for the future welfare of our country and for the
stability of its government is justified.
If you are an American citizen, be one in some
thing more than name only! Register, if yoI
have not already done so, and vote at both thu
primaries and the general election! Thus yOl
will do your part, at least, in perpetuating th
rights, liberties, and priviIeges-so dearly VOL
at such great sacrifices-guaranteed by our form
of government!

TEMPEST IN TEAPOT.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The profess
siOnal tOm-tom beaters, editorial and
political, who have sought to make a
hoWdy-do and raise a clamor over
President COOlidge's executive order
for strengthening the enforcement Of
the prohibition law, have been tripped
in their traces. While a committee of
the solemn senate is now supposed to
be making an intensive study as to
the cOnstitutiOnality of this measure.
lawyers, large and small, agree that
it stands fOursquare upon the law.
Stripped Of its verbiage, it simply
provides that in states where the peo-
pie desire, and where there is no law
fOrbidding a dual service, state Of
ficials may volunteer and may become
available, for a nominal compensa-
ton, to assist in the enforcement of
the law. The one particular advan-
tage gained is that boO'leggeIs an;l
other violatcrs who now have only 10
cross a municipal boundary line to
escape city officials, or a state boun-
dary to escape state officials, can in
instances where officers have dual
power, be pursued and arrested.
Democratic senator's have now
reached a point where they are in
clined to credit the president with out
whiting them. Those who know the
president, of course, appreciate thai
such a motive is the last to influence
him.

SURE WAY OF FINDING OUT
From The Butte Miner


Whether person is wet or dry, he should not
have the slightest objection to having the pro-
hibitiOn question resubmitted to the citizens of
this state at the coming fall election
Originally, Montana voted itself dry by a ma
jority Of over 10000. In recent times there has
been some talk that the people of this common
wealth have undergone a change Of view upon
this subject, but actually no one really knows
whether they have done so or not.
There is just one way to find out, and that is
to provide them with an opportunity to vote again
upon the matter. Even if majority, IN Novem-
Der, should be recorded against state prohibition,
this would not make Montana wet, so long as the
Eighteenth amendment and the VOlstead act are
in full force and effect.
Such action would, however, relieve local Of
ficers from the duty Of enforcing the prohibition
laws at present upon the statute books of this
commonwealth In any case, majority Of citi-
zens is entitled to have its win carried out and if
that majority is shown to be either dry or wet
this undoubtedly would exert no little influence
upon the course of Montans's senators and repre-
sentatives in congress relative to opposing or sup
porting efforts to modify the Volstead law
At present these representatives in Washington
are justified in assuming that the sentiment oi
this state is dry for Montana citizens so recorded
themselves in unmistakable fashion upon the only
occasion when the question was submitted tc
them for decision.

politically it is hard to see where the
Democrats will profit much by them.
The Investigations lack even decent

the president still has the people with
