personally was not aware of their true character.
He tried to pass the buck" to w. F. Casey, secre-
tary of the fair, but this Mr.. Lobe would not
permit. After grilling the commissioner for some
time, Lobe asked:

commissioner of agriculture, went to the fair
grounds with an AK and tore out the portion of
the grandstand used by a concession last year
simply because you didn't want that concession
to operator"

con the other hand, aren't you the man who
said that certain types of gambling concessions
approved by the State fair could operate with your
sanction?"
eyes, I'm the man." again responded the COM
missioner.
Rarely has a public official put himself in such
an unenviabIe position as Mr.. Bowman. Convicted
by his own words and actions of insincerity, dis
regard of law, and attempt to evade responsibility
this Democratic appointee's services to Montana
would appear to be worth less than zero. While
he can be removed only by impeachment, the pre-
sent administration should induce him to resign
without delay.

WHAT PRICE FIGHT SEATS

Saturday it was announced at Chicago that gate
receipts for the Dempsey-Tunney heavyweight
championship fight there September % had al
ready passed the 100000 mark. More than
10000 seats, the dispatches said, had been sold,
including 100000 "ringside" at $40 and $50, and
10000 others at $40. Inasmuch as the contest
is limited by law to 10 rounds, purchasers of $40
seats will, if the bout goes the limit, pay 81 a
round for the privilege of seeing the encounter.
Tunney, it is reported, will receive 1000, 900
for his efforts, while Dempsey will draw down
$450,O 600. Certified checks for these sums have
been deposited with the Illinois State Athletic
commission.
In the old days when fistic events ran from 20
to 80 rounds, and many were fought with bare
knuckles, it was not thus. Corbett fought Sui
Iivan at New Orleans in 1892 for a purse of $25, 900
and a side bet of $4,000. The gate receipts for
the Corbett-F ~itzsimmons battle at Carson City,
New, in 1897 were only $4,000. The Johnson
Jefferies scrap at Reno in 1910 drew S27O,755,
and the WiIlard-Johnson bout at Havana in 1915
attracted a $4,000 crowd.
From then on attendance and the price of seats
steadily advanced until in 1921, when Dempsey
and Carpenter staged a brief engagement at Jer-
sey City, the gate rose to $1,626,580. Present
indications are that the Dempscy -Turney fight
at Chicago next Thursday night will result in
receipts nearly double that figure. Out of it all
Promoter Tex Richard, one-time Texas cowboy,
will profit most.
1t would appear as if there were no end to the
trend towards exorbitant prices for such events.
And often the milling, despite its championship
classification, is quite ordinary. No one can claim
that the Dempsey-Tunney mixup last year was
anything but comparatively tame, or that the
Dempsey-Sharkey go of more recent date was q
scientific exhibition of the manly art. For such
shows $40 a seat seems far too much.

SENATE MAY MEET SOON

WASHINGTON, D. C.-President
Coolidge, who has been steadfast in
opposition to a full extra session of
congress, is apparently showing a
more kindly disposition. to the sug-
gestiOn which originated with Sena-
tor SmOot and with certain other Re
publican leaders that the senate it
self be called into session the latter
part of October or early in Novem-
Der in order that it may do a little
house cleaning in advance of the reg
ular meeting of the body. 1t has
been said that if the senate were so
called, it could, for one thing, clear
up the Smith and Ware contest cases,
a performance which will take time
no matter how speedily it is pressed,
and thus save time for the regular
business of congress.
While Congress regularly would
meet early in December, it is gen.
orally an accepted fact that it hardly
more than gets under way before the
Christmas holidays and as a result
it does not get it's braces frightened
until the middle Of January. BY cal
ling the senate a month earlier, how
ever, a variety of matters could be
| cleared up and congress itself, instead
of starting from a dead center in De-
cember, would be already in motion.

production and marketing Of these
commodities. The total holdings of
frozen poultry are stated at 42,3O2,-
900 pounds, as against 100000 in
1926, and a five-year average Of 49,
100000. There has been an increase
in beef, pork, lamb and mutton Of

year. Holdings of creamery butter
have been increased over 100000
pounds, and there has been an in

American cheese supplies alone are
smaller, which unhappily may be ex-
planned by reason of Importation of
foreign cheeses, and the natural dis
inclination to tie up a surplus. Any

but cause distress to the agricultur-
ist.

Warming that the dread disease, infantile paral-
ysis, is on the increase and that cit looks as if
this is going to be an infantile paralysis year"
has been issued by DIR. W.. F.. COgswell of Helena,
secretary of the state board of health.
Many states are reporting an increased num-
Der of cases" says DR.. Cogswell. "This is parti-
cularly so in California and New Mexico, where
serious epidemics are prevailing. In Montana we
have had two cases this season, both in Cascade
county Physicians are requested to be on their
guard and report any suspicious cases promptly
to local health officers"
In 1924, DIR. CogsweIl points out, there was a
serious epidemic of this disease in Missoula. A
few weeks previous there was much sickness
among children in that locality, the symptoms of
which resembled la grippe in its various forms.
"In studying these cases" the doctor continues,
1--WE were forced to conclude that many which
could not be definitely diagnosed as infantile
paralysis were really an abortive type of that
disease. 1t is now generally recognized that in
every epidemic of ~infantile paralysis there are
many cases of the abortive type. These not being
p~aralyzed cannot, of course, be definitely dag
nOsed and they, not being quarantined, undoubt-
edly cause a spread of the disease"
Parents are urged to be on their guard and to
isolate, as far as is possible, children who present
symptoms of la grippe, particularly at this time
when infantile paralysis is prevalent throughout
the country. There is no recognized serum, DR.
Cogswell adds, for the prevention of the disease
except possibly that made from the blood of con-
v~alescent cases and which is regarded "as i'm
practicable at the present time"

DEMOCRATS

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The noml-
nation of "Al" Smith by the Demo
is apparently inevitable. The
solid South will grind its teeth and
rage madly, but it has been figured
that the governor of New York can
be nominated by a very narrow mar
gin, even with the two-thirds rule.
The higher strategists in the Demo-
cratic party, however, are far from
pleased. They have been caught in
their own Vaccinations.
With President Coolidge as a likely
renominee and one who if renomi-
mated was certain of election, some
of the high commanders deliberately
encouraged the Smith boom on the
theory that 1928 would be a fine time
to get rid of Smith and the religious
question. Inasmuch as Coolidge would
be reelected and Smith never could
be elected they would have taken care
of Smith, given him his place in the
sun for 1928, and in 1882 they would
have a clear deck and be able to make
their own trades.
Carrying out this thought they can
vassed the South, and secured a mot

did not like Smith it would have to
vote for him. In various ways they
thus encouraged the Smith boom by
forcible feeding. Now with the presi.
dent in retirement they are left with
the Smith boom on their hands. 1t is
an open secret now that for the first
time they are entertaining hopes II
the event of Coolidge being actually
out of the field, of electing a Demo
crat, their grief over the situation
which they have themselves created
can be imagined but hardly pictured
There are a few who still hope thai
some turn of the wheel may make i
possible to pick a western Democra-
without the Smith handicaps, whC
could make real the Democrat,
dream of a union of the West ant
the South for political purposes.

BOWMAN FLOUTS LAW

Montana last week appeared in the disgraceful
role of sanctioner of gambling and participation in
the infamous profits of games openly conducted
on the State fair grounds at Helena. And squarely
upon the shoulders of A. H. Bowman, commits
sioner of agriculture and by virtue of his office
director of the State fair, rests the responsibility.
The most astounding feature is that Mr.. Bow
man is the man who, armed a la Carrie Nation,
not long ago went to the fair grounds and chopped
into kindling wood that portion of the grandstand
used by the pari-mutuel concession last year. His
action was intended to foster the impression that
no gambling would be permitted at the fair this
year.
The scandal broke at Helena Friday when
Sheriff Clyde Burgess of Lewis and Clark county,
carrying warrants issued at the instance of Coun-
ty Attorney Padbury, raided the Workman Shows
concessions at the grounds, arrested eight men
and seized a wagon load of paraphernalia. 1t was
alleged that besides running games of chance
for prizes of blankets and other merchandise, in
which the odds against the player were something
like $50 to l, the defendants had operated con-
trivances of similar nature and paid the winners
(f any in cash.
When brought into justice court Saturday l.. G.
Jones, manager of the Workman Shows, agreed
to accept entire responsibility and his co-defen-
dants, all employees, were dismissed. Jones then
declared that the games were conducted under
contract with the state and had been consented
to and approved by Commissioner Bowman. II
was further brought out that the state not only
received a flat payment of 81 1000 for the privilege
granted, but shared in the profits to the extent
of 20 per cent of the gross receipts. Betting, il
had been agreed, was to be limited to a maximum
of so cents on each play.
Attorney Lester H. Lobe of Helena, counse
for Jones, pointed out that in the prosecution tht
commonwealth occupied the position of, on the on,
hand, virtually licensing gambling and sharing
in the profits thereof and, on the other, at
tempting further to enrich itself from the sam,
source by collecting a fine for violation of
statute which it, by the acts of its commissioner
OF agriculture and director of the fair, had flag
rantly disregarded. His motion for dismissal O.
the case was granted.
Mr.. Bowman, called to the stand by the de
tense, proved an uncomfortable and evasive wit
ness. AT first he declared that although he hat
visited the fair grounds and seen the games il
operation, he had taken little notice of them AMI

JUDGE R V

Judge Ebert H. Gary, chairman of the board
of directors of the United States Steel corporation,
was known as a wise and patriotic man. His
public statements were noted for their c~learness
of thought and their sound logic.
In his last will and testament Judge Gary said:
Il earnestly request my wife and my Children
and descendants that they steadfastly decline to
sign any bonds or obligations of any kind az surety
for other person or persons; that they refrain
from anticipating their incomes in any respect
that they refuse to make any loans except on the
basis of first-class, well known securities, and that
they invariably decline to invest in any untried
or doubtful securities or property or enterprise
or business.
They should reject any representations or
opinions of others if involved in any doubt. They
will be approached frequently with suggestions
for investment that are not entitled to be relied
upon from a business standpoint"
Judge Gray's advise to his family is worth con-
sidering.

COST OF LIVING IN
HARLEM, NEW YORK

NEW YORK Cityites who have
found it difficult to outline a cost-of-
living budget which would keep the
wolf safely away from the door and
at the same time provide a small sur
plus for a rainy day, can view their
difficulties clearly in a budget table
which has been recently published by
the National Industrial Conference
board.
According to the board, the min
imum budget for an industrial work
er's family of man, wife and three
children is $1,88C.17 uer year, OF
$36.16 per week; for a single man liv-

SALARIES OF GOVERNORS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-In these
days of high salaries and wages, paid
in industry, it is interesting to note
the salaries paid to the governors of
the various states. Not including the
use of an executive mansion in some
states, the average salarv paid a gov
ernOr is $4,000. In only 10 of the
states, however, is this amount equal
ed or exceeded. The highest salary,
$4,000 is paid by Pennsylvania, fol-
lowed by $4,000 in Illinois, and
$4,000 each to the governors of
California, Massachusetts, New Jer-
sey, New York, Ohio, and West Vir-
ginia.
The people of Indiana and Rhode
Island pay their governors $4,000 per
annum. Louisiana, Montana, Nebras-
ka and Oregon value the services of
their chief executives at $500. Ne
vada pays $1,000; Minnesota, $1,000
and Arizona and Kentucky, $4,000
each. Four states, Florida, Utah.
Washington and Wyoming are the
only ones in the $4,000 class, while
there are Is states whose governors
receive an annual salary of $4,000
Maryland and Oklahoma pay $4,000:
Delaware, Tennessee and Texas
$4,000, and New Hampshire, South
Dakota and Vermont, $4,000. A tOta
of only $3O7,2O per year is required
to pay the salaries of the chief exec.
utives of the 48 states, which consti-
tute our great nation with it's popula,
ton of 100000 inhabitants.

FARM ACREAGE DECREASES

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The British
ministry of agriculture has issued a
statistical survey of conditions which
has upset a number of statesmen as
well as agriculturists. There is a de-
pressing decrease in the acreage Of
land being farmed in Great Britain,
and the farming land is being aban-
doned to permanent grass for graz
ing, and as a result, the people have
turned to the raising of cattle and
pigs.
There has been an increase of over
half a million pigs. The farmers are
turning to sugar beets, going at it
head over heels, but it is admitted
that they are wondering what they
will do when the government subsidy
given to farmers for sugar beets is
ended.
