British Workers Fight Move

LONDON, May 25.-An official
breach between Great Britain and the
Soviet Union will only cement the re-
lations of the workers Of both coun-
tries closer than ever, declared A. ].
Cook, Secretary of the Miners Fed
Grafton commenting on breach of
Anglo-Soviet relations advocated by
the tory cabinet.
British miners, he said, would never
forget that the workers of the Soviet
Union sent them millions of pounds
to keep them from starving during
their strike.
British labor is solidly opposed to
the action of the die-hard Cabinet.
Large sections of the financial and
industrial worlds are also indignant
at the Cabinets decision.

The boxing bill, under the auspices
of the local Post of the American
Legion, is causing a lot of excitement
among the fight fans of the city.
Both Moe and Hendricksmeier, who
meet in the main event, are in fine
condition for the battle and their
supporters are backing them heavily.
After rigorous training for the
past two weeks, the men are resting
for the final go tonight, and 1t is
predicted that it will be some bat
tie.
Friends of Moe claim that Hen
dricksmeier is going up against the
hardest battle of his career when he
meets the battler from Archer
something different than any of his
fights since he met Bromberg. Moe
is fast hard boxer and can hit like
a sledge hammer and knows how to
cover up when the going gets rough
However, supporters of Hendricks
meier, claim that the Raymond boy
can lick dozen Noes, and are put

statements, which greenbacks are be.

siasts who believe Moe will take the
Raymond whirlwind.
The young fellows on the prelim-

coming pugs intend to show the
crowd that they are also fighters OF
first class caiibre, and the only rea-
son they are not after Gene Tun-

SHERIDAN COUNTY
WINS FIRST PLACE
IN SMALL GRAINS
Fine Exhibits Shown By Nearly All
Counties in the State-Sheridan
Wins First on Wheat. Barley and
Flax.

Sheridan County made large win
nings at the State Pure Seed and
Corn Show held at Sidney last week
Nearly all the counties in the State
were represented with fine exhibits.
The number of entries and quality of
exhibits greatly surpassed any other
year.
Sheridan County scored first as a
county in winnings of small grains.
Saltwater county won first in corn
winnings. Considering the fact that
Sheridan County started to develop
the raising Of pure seed less than
four years ago makes these winnings
all the more remarkable. Most coun-
ties have been raising pure seed for
at least ten years or longer, and also
the large increase in number of ex-
hlblts this year makes the Montana
State Seed Show the largest pure
seed show in the country.
Sheridan County won first and sec

Winter wheat; first and third on
oats; first, second and third on bar

DAILY Days Recalled
But the people in New York, who
rule the state over the telegraph wire
to the sixth floor of the Hennessy
Building, Butte, thence to the State
Capitol at Helena, look upon the prob
ability of Clark entering the political
arena as candidate or even as a 'man
behind the scenes" in an entirely diff
ferent light from the politicians or
the people of the state. For some of
them are old enough to remember
the hectic days when the elder Clark
challenged the might of Marcus DAILY,
the then head of what is now the An

no plker, he was backed by the peo-

One of the main features of the
