Paul of Deer Lodge and Lee
Dennis of Great Falls File
for Governorship

Joseph NJ Dixon of Missoula satur.
day entered the race for seat in
The United States senate. He filed
with the secretary of state his dec
laration as candidate for the repub-
lican nomination. AT the same time,
w. j. Paul of Deer Lodge filed as q
republican candidate for governor
and w. S. Mccormack Of Kalispell for
reelection as lieutenant governor.
Mr.. Dixon served two terms in CON
gress and one term in the United
States senate from Montana. He fol-
lowed Theodore Roosevelt in his bolt
from the party in 1912 and was active
IN the progressive party campaign,
going down to defeat, himself, as it's
| candidate for the senate In 1920 he
was elected governor and served four
years. In 1924 he was defeated by
John r. Erickson, democrat, after
bitter campaign.
In his announcement, Mr.. Dixon
says:
In response to a great number Of
requests from persons in nearly every
county In Montana, | have filed as
candidate for the United States SEN
atorship in the July primary.
For the last Is years Montana has
had no republican representative in
the senate at Washington. In many
ways this has been unfortunate. On
account Of this the state has largely
been out Of touch with the admin
istratiye part Of the federal govern
ment.
Few people in their sober mo
ments, have but little doubt that the
next president Of the United States
will be a republican.
Many Montana industries OF vital
in the future development
Of the state will again next year be
put to the crucial test. This is espe-
'ially true as to sheep, cattle, sugar
oeets, dairying, wheat manganese,
cad and many other lines of indus
ny, to the extent that very many of
'ln people do moi fully realize.

with Wright Whirlwind motor, costs
about $4,000. allowing about $4,000 for
the motor and the balance for the plane.

Truth. which We seek so bravely, sell

look at 1t for moment In dismay and
then fiy back to the castles which
imagination builds AS long as the
earth Is imperfect men will write
poetry.
The earth was unquestionably i'm
perfect i'll the days OF Abelard, and
therefore Abelard was wise enough to
be not only philosopher, but trou-
badour: doubtless he was happier when
he sang songs OF undying love TO
Hclose or pious fealty to the Virgin
Mother than when he meditated on
the real nature OF the world and man.
II one were less gifted than Abelard.
and could not fashion fair imagery or
tender speech. he might, II rich, pay
jongleur or jester to provide en-
tertainment at his feasts and revelries,
and even the poorest could pick these
songs or ouips out of the air as they
travelled from tongue to tongue across
the Continent. So Abelard, aged and
penniless. must often have heard his
own roundelays come back to him
from the minstrels In the streets, who
never guessed that this gray-haired
priest had composed their melodies.
Surely the pleasant side OF medieval
history is the tale Of the troubadours,
happy 60 lucky songb!rdS. who. armed
only with lutte and tune, tramped
from town to town. from lady To lady,
and from court to court, singing OF
fair women and brave men. There
we're many species OF this carefree
genus: In the Far North they were
stern skalds. inditing verse Eddas or
prose sagas OF thunderous gods or ter
rife warriors of Thor and Odin and
Friga, of Sigurd and Brynhild and
Olaf Tryggvason, in Germany they
we're minnesingers, developing the end
less fairy stories of their people into
the legend of the Nibelungenlied. and
the tales of Siegfried. Tristram. Kun
dry and Parsifal: in England they were
Ministries and gleemen, OF names un-
known to us. who sang in rude allitera-
tive verse the tale OF the doughty
Beowulf. or created the poetry and
prose of King Arthur and his round
table of valiant knights and seekers
of the holy grail: in France they were
jongleurs and troubadours, remaking
Charlemagne into god in the story
of Roland and Oliver. and almost
creating romantic love in their haunt
ing albas or dawn-songs. in Aucassins

THE department feels as does AM
hassador Morrow. that such questions,
II any, as may hereafter arise can be
settled through the due operation OF
the Mexican administrative depart
ments, and the Mexican courts.
The reference In the last paragraph
OF the above quotation Is to the follow
ing paragraph OF statement issued by
Ambassador Morrow: There remains,
OF course. the determinations OF what
rights the oil companies held on Nav
|. 1917. While there may well be hon
est differences on this point, there Is
no reason why any such differences
cannot be satisfactorily settled through
due operations of the Mexican govern
mental departments and the Mexican
courts
Let us hope that the optimism OF our
State Department will prove justified
and that March 81 marked the begin
ming of an eternal epoch OF the most
cordial and frictioniess relations be-
tween ourselves and Mexico. Obviously
Mr.. Morrow has approved himself a
dipiomatist OF high order.
