MOTHER NEWSPAPER MAN HAS
'MENTAL LAPSE"

The editor of the Bertha Herald in COM
menting on an error appearing in the Sank
Centre Herald recently, said:
"The evil that men do lives
after them, the good is often in
TERED with their bones," said
Shakespeare Editor Asa Wallace of
the Sank Centre Herald was nearly
convinced that Shakespeare told the
truth after several members of the
Methodist Ladies' Aid Of his city
called on him to inquire about the
printing of an item concluded with
the line, "lunch followed by cards"
The error was, of course, uninten-
tional, but Editor Wallace is now
even more convinced that the peo-
pie of his town read the Herald.
In the same issue of the Bertha paper
appeared the following, which very likely
made Editor Sonneyson wonder how these
things occur:

'Babe" Ruth of baseball fame has been
touring the West since the baseball season
closed appearing in a vaudeville act on the
Pantages circuit. A warrant has been is
sued by the up-lifters of San Diego, Cal,
charging the Bambino with violating the
"Child Labor Law" of California. The Herald
editor saw Babe" in his act in Minneapolis,
during the course of which he called half
dozen small children to the stage, hdded
them bit and then autographed baseballs
giving each happy tot one. The "Babe" is
a great big boy, loves children and when the
youngsters are on the stage with him they
have happy party. 1t is long stretch of
the imagination to conclude that Mr.. Ruth
violates any labor laws passed by California
to protect the downtrodden youth in CIV
ing them "the time Of their lives" for few
brief minutes.

Judging from the Public prints La
Clede, Mo-, man appeared at social function
in his home town one evening recently
wearing a gim-crack trimmed with ribbons
of dainty colors, which some of the more ex-
perienced men of the town, claimed was a
lady's garter. His wife was greatly shocked
when she discovered the decorations put on
by her husband when he found the contrap-
ton hanging close beside his necktie. 1t is
said she relieved an embarrassing moment
by proving the garter belonged 10 her in
stead of the hired girl.

Capitol Chatter
By C. B. Wollan

After three weeks of "sparring
for wind" the Minnesota legisla-
ture is beginning to get ready to
start work in earnest, but there
really won't be much doing for
another three weeks.
AS Sen. Victor Lawson, Willmar,
remarked the other day: give en-
joyed the rest cure very much so
far. It's not been just what I ex-
pected when / was elected, but
older members tell me the first 80
days of every legislative session
are much akin to a vacation"
Sen. Jim Carley, Plainvew, who
happened to be near by and over
heard the remark, moved to
amend" by making this comment
"You might make that the first 85
days of the 80 and be nearer the
truth"
But that is exaggerating the sit
uation considerably. The fact is,
however, that past history shows
that legislatures crowd more ac-
tual work and accomplishment in
to the last three weeks or so than
during the entire rest of the ses-
sion. Yet even this statement is
not actually correct when one
considers the great amount of
work done in committees before
the bills are reported out.
Already 178 bills have been in
troduced in the senate and 210
in the house, so many committees
now have something on which to
get busy. Schedules of committee
meetings were adopted in both
branches last week, this being nee
essary to avoid conflicts in meet
ing hours as much as possible.
Regular meetings Of many COM
mittees begin this week.

our constitution breathes the spirit of each for
all" and "all for EACH AS such We should
stand by the agreements written therein, to the
man, as though they were sacred, and only raise
our voices against them, as that selfsame consti-
tuition prescribes. Let us bear in mind that we
only write down in constitution such laws as
are regarded necessary to the government of our
organization as that organization itself makes
manifest. We do not write laws to govern alb
stract organizations but concrete organizations.
Therefore the growing organization evolutes,
our thoughts about the laws of that organization
evolute but civilization and enlightenment de-
mand that we go about evoluting the laws to
govern the evoluting organization along civilized
lines.
What am trying to say is that if any agree
ment written in the constitution has become OBJ
solete and out of date, let us go on until such
time as is outlined in the constitution to effect
such changes as we desire. To do otherwise
would be ridiculous blunder and wrong try
ing to correct something we forgot to put in the
constitution yesterday some restrictions
against certain officials overlooked. Further, the
whole constitution would be meaningless and
sacredness which we all should have for it would
pass away for the whole or all of it.

EDITORIAL
THE MAKING OF A CONSTITUTION.

When ever civilized people undertake to do
something in an organized way, they invariably
elect the constitutional way of doing it. Be-
cause experience has taught that the consttu-
tonal way of doing things is the most definite
and cearest way of getting at what is desired
by the organization. This is true because in
your constitution, the work of the organization
is departmentalized, and hence the workers have
their particular field in the organization made
plain to them This, too makes for harmony and
agreement among the workers, and this is in
itself one long stride taken in the right direc-
ton; and reasonably speaking the success of the
organization is assured
When think of constitution of our or
ganization, associate along with it that spirit
of cooperation which to my mind is the great
est human spirit in the world today. We think
Of this group losing some of it's ideas, etc. until
an agreement is reached and accepted as the
agreement Of all. In this way we can say that

TAKE A CHANCE WHERE YOU CAN WIN.

BE sure you are right, and then go ahead
is motto; but if you wait to be absolutely sure,
the chanceis you may never get ahead. The big

The lesson our people have never learned
from the white man is to take chance where
there is a possibility of winning We take

CHURCHES WARNED
TO SAFEGUARD FUNDS
Dean Lathrop Urges Congregations
to Invest in Staple
Industries.
BY the Associated Press.

ny Ine ASsuctdtsu IACSSs
DES MONIES, May 11.--Churches
should not invest in any industry
unless it's labor conditions are whole
some, in the view of the Rev. MIR.
Charles N. I.athrop, here from New
York to attend the National Confer
Ance on Social Service today.
Dean Lathrop is executive secre~
fary of the department of Christian
social service Of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church. Prior to the opening
of the conference he expressed his
belief that churches are not only obli-
gated to protect the contributions of
their members. but to make sure they
do not encourage by their investment
any industry in which exist condl-
toms the church cannot approve.
Also he. declared that the churches
should consider the Importance Of the
industry's contribution to the gen.
eral welfare.
AS to housing as an investment
possibility, he said: Many of the
churches denounce birth control to
limit families. The church is the one
body OF the community demanding
the o1d-fashioned home with children.
1--WE hear that as the home Is
broken up, so the Christian faith
breaks up. But IL clergymen will do
less denunciation of divorce and mari
tai difficulties and devote their atten-
ton to a supply O. houses or apart
ments sufficiently cleAp and roomy to
make possible family with children
they will be contributing to the de-
crease Of divorce and marital diff
culties."
Dean Iathrop suggests creation of
O bureau, perhaps headed by an In
dustrial engineer, which would inves-
tigate conditions in any industry
upon request of church finance COM
rnittees.

HOLY SEE DEPLORES

Vatican Stresses Duty OF
i Church to Stamp Out I'M
moral Books.
6y the Associated Press.


ROME, May 11.-War against I'M
moral books. plays and pictures has
been started by the Vatican.
The pontiff's stand against immoral
publications Is in line with his recent
denunciations of immodest dress and
Immoral customs, and ecclesiastical
circles interpret 1t as emphasizing his
desire to have the church lead the
world away from the oralfaxity that
came as an aftermath Of the great
war.
At the wish of the Pope the su-
ureme sacred congregation of the
sacred office has sent to all bishops of
the church definite instructions for a
campaign.
Holy See Horrifled.
The Holy See, the document points
out, is Mortified not alone by the great
number of books dealing with sensual
vices, but by the dissemination of pub
iications which dare to justify morbid
sensuality by false religious mysticism,
shamelessly invoking God and re-
ugion.
cit is no wonder that the world,
seeker as 1t is of itself even to the
point Of despising God, should delight
in these books the document adds,
"DuJ II Is p1Li1LAl liietL NAAIGt5s IetitiiAsa
themselves Christians, should write
them"
Instructions Outlined.
The new papel instructions are out
lined as having a threefold purpose
to denounce the danger, especially to
youth. of immoral books; to invoke the
aid of the bishops and the diocesan
clergy in reading and prohibiting
books, the number of which is too
great to permit detailed examination
by the authorities Of the Holy See,
and to impress on Catholics that the
reading of evidently immoral books
constitutes a mortal sin, regardless of
whether these books have been ex-
pressly condemned by ecclesiastical
authorities or placed on the list of
forbidden books.
Cites Human Frailty.
Faith without good works is dead,
the document says, adding that be-
cause of the great frailty Of hui
man nature and its great tendencies
toward sensual pleasures" neither the
splendor of the style of writing nor
accurate psychological analyses based
on medern theories, nor the fact that
punishment follows vice and remorse
follows abandon can justify immoral
books.

Northern Pacific
Rids Its Lime of
HObOess Us Claim

Few trains, freight or passenger, along
the entire Northern Pacific lines from
the Twin Cities to the coast, carry
hObOes stealing rides, according to o.
Parrhysius, chief special agent for the
system.
Mr.. Parrhysius, general labor agent Of
the railway, who also has from 125 to 156
men employed under him in the North
ern Pacific police department, says:
"Our campaign against hoboes and
transients stealing rides this summer has
been exceptionally successful" said Mr..
Parrhysius. "We started a drive to clear
all trains Of gratis passengers and we
intend to continue this policy.
1--WE will follow up the offensive against
the transients next year, profiting by ex-
perience gained this season. At that,
we find a majority Of the travelling class
who like to use the side-dOor pullmans
or the rods are giving US the roundabout
and taking big circles to avoid the North
ern Pacific route. If we catch them, we
either make them pay fun fare for the
distance they have travelled or else turn
them over for prosecution, and the re-
suit is that we have few hobOes."

CLARK ESTATE
TAX rs SETTLED
TOTAL LEVIED IN MONTANA AMOUNTS
TO $1,745,189 BY RULING OF JUDGE
LYNCH IN BUTTE
Claims for Several Substantial Deductions
Not Allowed by Silver Bow Court, One
Being $475,9S1 Paid C. w. Clark by
Late Senator Prior to His Death.

Denying claims for several substan-
tial deductions brought by attorneys
representing the estate of the late SEN
atOr w. A. Clark, Judge Lynch of Butte
fixed the inheritance tax on the estate
and submitted his finding of fact and
conclusions of law and thus passed
final Judgment on the hughest probate
case ever before a Silver Bow county
court.
The total inheritance tax levied on
the estate by Montana amounts to 81
745, 1900. OF this amount all except
1878, ,820.67 has been paid.
Claims for certain substantial deduc-
tions representing: A sum paid to Charles
w. Clark, son, by Senator Clark before
his death, but, by the court, Judged as
paid in contemplation Of death; a sum
paid Mrs. Anna E. Clark, the widow, for
family expenses" the 1925 taxes and
the federal inheritance taxes were not
allowed by Judge Lynch.
The market value Of the estate in
Montana was fixed at $46,552 ,232 O5; the
market value Of the estate outside Mon
tana, SO, ,476, ,079 80, and the gross value
of the estate, $49, ,028. 8.311.35.
Funeral charges, debts and admins
tration expenses charged to the estate
amounted to 50, 1884, 1858 Of which Mon
tana's proportion fixed for the purpose
Of making deductions before levying the
Il
Executors and executrices paid out of
the estates funds to states other than
Montana for transfer taxes on stocks
owned by Senator Clark, in corporations
existing in these states. $237, ,094.45.
Deducting the transfer Of taxes paid
to other states and the debts, funeral ex-
penses and administration expenses, the
market value Of the estate for inheri-
tance tax purposes in Montana was de.
clared to be 3,908, ,292.46.
The federal taxes due amounted tC
the huge sum of SO, ,683 ,433 .26. Because
of possible ambiguity in the interpreta.
tion of newly-enacted Montana laws, the
attorneys for the estate claimed a deduc.
ton Of this amount from the sum tC
which the Montana inheritance tax law;
were applied. It is not known whether o.
not there will be an appeal from the
phase Of Judge Lynch's ruling that de
MED this.

There are several school systems rep
resented on this reservation, and the
parents are allowed to choose as much
as possible which school they wish to

80 children and an enrolment Of SO. This

that it should be distributed among
needy districts in accordance with recon-
mendations made at the governors con-
ference on education held last year at
the state capitol.
1T is the belief of the committee and
the state board of education that ways
and means can be devised to guarantee
to districts that have made a levy of at
least IL mills for special maintenance,
the necessary funds for a nine-mOnths
school at a cost not to exceed LOO
per school. The difference between the
amount raised by district and the S1,100
will be made up from the equalization
fund. The distribution to village schools
will be made on the basis Of the cost
per day per child"
Figures showing the school population
OF the state will be available this month.
The law allows clerks until Nov. 1 to
compile the data secured by the school
census and Miss Trumper asserts that
indications point to a substantial growth
in numbers OF Montana school children.
This prediction also applies to the num-
Der OF teachers employed in the state
Last year there were approximately 5000
instructors employed in the high schools
and grades, exclusive Of normal schools
and collegiate institutions. Several
schools that have been closed because of
lack Of funds have been reopened.

That the long haired Northern Chey-
enne Indians, formerly known as the
Fighting Cheyennes," who for many
years defied the white mans soldiers
and the white mans civilization, are
at last beginning to take a real interest
in learning the ways of educated peO-
pie, is indicated by figures regarding
school enrolment which were given
out by Superintendent G. b. LOhmiller
of the Tongue River reservation.
The Cheyennes were not settled on this
reservation until the early '80s, being
one Of the last Of the tribes in the north
west to surrender. The development Of
schools on the reservation dates from the
establishment Of the first school by the
Indian bureau in 1904.

Three hundred and nine Northern Chey-
enne Indian children are enrolled in the
various schools on the Tongue River
reservation at the present time, with
about so more to be enrolled as soon as
fall work is completed and accommoda-
tions are extended to take care Of the
younger children. In addition to the
children enrolled in schools on the reser-
vation, II Indian children belonging to
this tribe are attending schools in other
localities.
