Isader is Chairman of the Tax
Commission. These are but a few
# the state jobs held by the Flat
heads. An unkindly critic once
-omsrked: ''The reason the state
treasury is so flat is because there
are so many fatheads on the pay

and perhaps not. Anyway Flathead
county will continue to rule Mon

tempt to rule itself.
CAL COOLIDGE seems to be pay
mg some attention to the elections,
IN which several world court senators
failed to make the grade" At
Kansas City he made a speech which
Is regarded in London as a repudia-
lion of the World Court idea. One
thing seems to have percOlated into
he New England consciousness of
Cal and that is the fact that the
American people do not like the
Senator's who voted this country in
70 the World Court, which is the
back door Of the League of Ma
tons. Of the seven Senators stand
ing for reelection, who voted valI-
mtly for the Court, six were de-
feated either in the Primary or the
general election. The PrO-Canrt-
ers whose names will be missing
from the Senate Chamber in the
10Th Congress, bear the following
familiar names: Senator William M.
Butler, Of Massachusetts,; Senator
James E. WadsWOrth, of New York;
Senator Richard p. Ernst, of Ken
lucky; Senator Robert N. Stanfield
Of Oregon; Senator 0vingtOn E..
Weller Of Maryland; Senator Ralph
4. Cameron, of Arizona; Senator
George Wharton Pepper, of Penn
ylYania; Senator Irvine L. Len
root, Of Wisconsin; Senator Rice w.
Means, of Colorado; Senator Will
liam B. Mckinley, of Illinois; the
late Senator Albert b. Cummins, of
Iowa. When Senators Walsh n d
Wheeler, who so ardently cOOperat-
ed with Col. House, in the passage
Of the World Court bill, note the
a&ense Of the above named gentle
men from the National Capitol, and
ponder over the returns of the End
District Congressional election in
Montana, where they made them
selves the issue, they must have an
measy feeling that 1928 is at hand
ant be fearful of the old saw:
Uoming events cast their Shadows
before"
