Quoted by the class. In a period of three
months, the attendance was raised to
almost two hundred mark, composed of
representatives of the various denomi-
nations and creeds not already attend
ing Sunday School, and on a number of
occasions we'll over hundred men were
in Attendance. The class started in
the auditorium of the Baptist church,
but it soon proved too large for its
quarters and was moved just across the
street to the Lexington Theatre.

therefore in one sense nothing more than
a formality, the placing Of an agreement
into operation; yet in another sense 1t
means that the promise Of local peo-

been fully lived up to, and that thor

every facility is here for the develop
ment of an outstanding dairy industry.

REDUCING THE MEXICAN ARMY
From The Christian Science Monitor

from The Christian Science Monitor
When President Gales was directing the affairs Of
the Mexican War Department in 1920 the army had a
strength of close to 100000 men, Recently at Vera
cruz the Chief Executive stated that the plan for re-
0ucuon OF the army which he had considered seven
years ago would begin so as to make the infantry
and cavalry consist of more than $4,000 or 40 OO0
men. The present strength of these two divisions :;
$4,000 exclusive of officers
AS Minister of War, Gales had in fact beorn 70
duclng the various military units but periodical exi
gencles folowng-such the de la Huerta revolution
the 1aqm campaign and other untoward causes-ne
cessltated calling halt to the plan. That internal or
DER has been restored IN Mexico and that without This
president Gales could now proceed with his nan
Tor reducing the army would seem to be the logical
conclusion to be drawn from the move at hand
Economic experts familiar with Mexican finances and
budget plans state that with the army program be-
coming effective it will be possible to add one school
teacher to the Mexican educational system for every
seven soldiers discharged No doubt President Gales
has given consideration to the great savings to the ma
ton that would come with a reduced army And If is
not at all impossible that such savings might be placed
to the credit of Mexican education More schools in
MeS1ca would be benefit farreaching in its effect
After May 1, according to President Gales the
places of those wishing TO leave the army will mot be
filled With regard to the national air force however
instead of being included in the reduction scheme n

dent Gales considers a national necessity.

THEN AND NOW

Something more than 20 years ago great coal strike
occurred. 1t went on for a few months. Theodore
Roosevelt president. The operators refused to
gotiate with the union. Roosevelt issued the ultima
tum that either there would be settlement of the
strike or he would send soldiers to mine coal.
The strike was settled. The union lived to make new
advances and greater progress.
Roosevelts action was far from satisfactory to the
operators 1t not entirely satisfactory to the min
But this action demonstrated this That at that
time the government mightier than industry.
Now the most far reaching coal strike of history has
been under way for year. In the White House sits
do nothing president. Every right of citizenship of the
miners has been ridden by the coal operators State
governmental authority has been prostituted to the
within of the operators Women and children are hun
CRY and dying.
There comes from the White House not the slightest
indication that Caous Cal is in the slightest way in
terested.
One of the leading steel bankers dined at the White
House not long ago. 1t is authoritatively rumored
Coolidge will become head of the steel trust when he
finishes his term of office The steel trust is interest
ed in the operation of non-unon mines.
Investments of American fnancers are threatened in
Nicaragua. Coolidge spends 81 100000 in addition to
usual expenses for the marines, send them to Mic
aragua to put pretender in office there who will pro-
tect the investments There has been not only expend
ture of money but loss of life among Ncaraguans and
Marines to protect these investments
Farmers have sought relief from their condition of
bankruptcy. Coolidge vetoes every attempt
Things have changed in 20 years. Industry is now
the government Dollars have become more precious
In the sight of government than human welfare and
human lives.
Industry will continue thus to dictate government
policies This will become a governemnt responsive to
the people again only when labors voice becomes
powerful enough in industry through organization
make the voice of industry the voice of the people

UNIFORM TRAFFIC CODES
NECESSARY

Washington has estimated that in 1927 there were
2661S persons killed in highway accidents, 79S7OO per-
sons seriously injured and economic losses of S67
OOO This economic loss figure is exclusive of minor
damage to motor vehicles.
The total killed is an increase of 1916 over 1926.
The injuries and losses awaken one to the need of e
pansion of the nations road building program and the
necessity for the immediate adoption of uniform traf
fic codes.
Of course, it will be said the human factor is the
main element contributing to these accidents
But that human factor could be offset to large ex
tent by adequate motoring facilities and regulation
Added to that the individual practice of courtesy and
caution is important.
VI late the great menace has been the chit and run"
driver There no obnoxious person than the one
who will run on and escape detection after hitting ne
deStrian.
William ]. Fitzgerald, member of the New Jersey
bar Association, has invented device designed to nut
stop to hit and run" driving 1t may be adopted nv
the state for use on all automobiles This invention
VIII scatter fifty metal discs with the license number
OF the car on them the ground whenever an accident
occurs The metal discs will be scattered over an area
OF twenty-five feet and it will be almost impossible
Tor the hit and run" driver to stop and collect them
The discs will fall to the ground when a trigger is
released the trigger responding the collision of the
bumper with moving body.
If this invention will work smoothly il seems &c
though it ought to be pretty universally adopted.

CAN'T FOOL EN-

The Helena Daily Independent, which is well known
to Montanans as a mouthpece of the Anaconda Copper
and Power interests of this state out last Sun
day with long editorial telling what awful man
Joe Dixon had proved to be and euogizing Charles H.
Williams of Powell county to the skies Both Dixon
and Williams are candidates for the u s. Senatorship
the Republican ticket.
Herein is where the "nigger in the woodpie" lies.
The Helena Independent is strongly democratic in its
political belief and Bill Campbell the editor, is stray
ing from the beaten path to boost either candidate on
an opposition ticket for the Senate unless he has some
particularly good reason.
This reason is plain and transparent to the aver
age reader and voter that the candidacy of Mr. Will
lams is bound to suffer by the boosting of the Helena
Independent.
Anyone who has anything to do whatsoever with
Montana politics knows that the Anaconda Copper Com
pany and the Helena Independent not crazy about
Dixon, and what would be nicer than to have a man
nominated the Republican ticket who would be to
their liking and would act just we'll Wheeler,
should the Junior Senator be defeated at the coming
primaries or general election.
Simple isn't it, only the smoke screen is much too
thin.

Owner of Poisoned Boston
Terrier Offers Big Reward

Great Falls.-Poisoning of dogs in
the city has brought an announcement
of $500 reward for the arrest and con-
vlctlon of the person responsible for
the death of dog owned by All Beck
man. One-half the reward posted was
furnished by Mr.. Beckman, who said
that the other dog owners would sub
scribe the remaining half, but that to
make immediate announcement of the
reward possible he would personally
guarantee the entire amount.
The dog was a pedigreed Boston
bull, highly trained and a family pet.
MIR. Beckman said that on several oc-
casions he had refused offers of $500
for the animal. Above the average
intelligence, its repertoire of tricks
had made the dog a celebrity in its
neighborhood Among its accomplish
ments was the ability to perform GER
tain tricks on instructions given in
the deaf and dumb sign language.
