The ~glittering but vague propos-
al which Governor Smith dangled be-
fore the farmers of the northwest at
St. Paul promises to become a boom
erang before the campaign is over
Senator Borah and other Republican
orators have pointed out to agricul-
ture in that section that the essen
tial feature of the McNary-Haugen
plan, the equalization fee, demands a
high protective tariff on all farm pro-
ducts if it is to be effective at all.
Governor Smith gave his audience no
assurance that he favors tariff du-
ties any higher than those of the IN
derwood act, which left every commo-
dity produced in the northwest open
to destructive foreign competition.
Reports from that section indicate
that farmers are rapidly realizing the
extent to which they have been i'm
posed on by the candidate who work
ed out his theories Of agricultural
aid in New York City. Probably some
of them recall that ancient admoni-
ton beware of the Greeks bearing
gifts"

THE SALES CLUB CAMPAIGN

People who have riddled their minds attempting to dis
cover the secret of the Heralds big Sales Club Subscription
Drive may be interested in knowing that up to Saturday night
exactly 76l new names have been added to our subscription
list, and that a huge paid-inadvance circulation has been es
tabished to cover the trade area served by Pentywood,
which means the whole of Sheridan County.
The potency of this announcement will escape the casu-
al reader, but the hardheaded business man will accept it as
~strkingly significant. and therein lies the secret of the cam
paign.
For four weeks Sales Club members have been combing
the county, driving hard bargains sometimes and selling with
ease at others, but always selling. In families where the Her
aid has never entered before it will go regularly once a week
for hfty-two weeks or more. Farms and towns alike have ex-
periended an intensive selling interest. Friends of the many
Club members have subscribed generously and in turn have
become sales men and sales women for them. 1t there has
been the slightest chance tor g sale, it has been exploited ma
ny times. There has been no cessation of effort nor will there
be, and those homes missed will be caught in homestretch OF
the drive.
1t was with this object in view that the drive was inaug
urated by the Herald. 1t is the official newspaper of the coun-
ty; it is but 81. 90 a year and it should go into the home OF
every taxpayer in the county. 1t meant that valuable prizes
had to be given to the understandable enough to induce
the best kind of craftsmanship to enter the campaign. 1t meant
that more than half the subscription money had to be spent
to place the Herald in every home in the county. But with this
done the publishers will be satisfied with the results, for the
Herald will have a new prestige and a greater influence IN our
community life. But not alone in that sense will it be valu-
able.
1t will be more valuable than ever to the business man
who knows he must keep in constant touch with his trade area;
When this campaign will have been closed the Herald will
have the largest paidin-advance circulation OF any newspaper
in this part of Montana, and paid-in-advance circulation is the
only circulation advertisers who know their business will
spend money for. More than one-half the people of Sheridan
county is an advertiser audience now through the Herald
and with the additional subscriptions gathered during the fin
al three weeks of the drive, this number will be greatly in
creased.
The Herald assumes its increased responsibility to give
all the news all the time with a determination to satisfy its
new readers by making the paper indispensable at the expira-
ton Of the new subscription terms. Every issue of the Herald
will be published to give you social, farm, industrial and NUM-
cipal facts, covering a field as broad as we are possibly able.
We will use our new influence for all things construc-
tive, serving the field as impartally and as faithfully as it is
in our power to judge.

BANK INSTALLS MODERN
BOOKK EEPING MACHINE

"The substantial growth of the
number of our accounts and the re-
sulting increase in the volume of III
bookkeeping made necessary the in
stallation of our new Burroughs
Multiple Register Bookkeeping Ma
chine" said C. b. Bull, president of
the Farmers and Merchants State
Bank.
j.. A. Wergeland, representative of
the Burroughs Adding Machine COM
pany, states that this bank is the
first bank in the state to purchase
this particular type Of machine and
is in accord with the progressiveness
of the bank in their desire to use
only the best and most improved
methods and equipment known in
banking for the handling of their
customers asSounts.
This new machine not only adds
and subtracts deposits and checks,
and extends new balances, but proves
the accuracy Of its own work by ac-
cumulating a total of checks, depos-
its and new balances without any at
tention on the part of the operator
while posting ledger or statement
sheets. 1t also makes a journal tape
which contains every item of each ac-
count active for that days posting, so
that items can readily be rechecked
and an account be entirely recon
structed from this proof tape if all
other records should be destroyed.
Thus, this machine insures great ac-
curacy and protection to the custom
ers and speedily and efficiently han
dies all items for the bank.

There is very tangible evidence of
mutual admiration in the strong en-
dorsement Of Mr.. Hoover's candidacy
by Col. Charles A. L~indbergh. When
Col. Lindbergh returned from his
epochal transatlantic flight, he
found man in Washington to
whom his ideas on the development
of commercial aviation had immedi-
ate and tremendous appeal. That mar
was Herbert Hoover, who probably
visualized the possibilities growing
out of the Lindbergh flight more
clearly than any other government
official, as we'll as the great expan-
sion Of facilities necessary to
prepare for the commercial conquest
of the air. Lindbergh's inspiration

A California presidential candidate
has certain advantages which ever as
tute politicians apparently had not re-
allied before Mr.. Hoover was select
ed. In order to direct his campaign
from an eastern headquarters, as both
parties usually do, the California con
tender must make two transcontinen-
tai trips, one from his home to the
east and the other back to the west
coast to vote, for California laws do
not permit absentee voting. Thus he
is able to cross the country at the
beginning Of the campaign and at its
close, greeting and speaking to thou
sands and thousands of voters en-
route.

Eighty six newspapers which are
listed as Democratic or independent
in their political preferences have
come out editorially for Hoover and
Curtis, according to a recent tabula-
ton. They are located in Is states,
from Minnesota to Texas and from
New York to San Francisco.
In every instance, their preference
for the Republican candidates is based
upon a sincere conviction that Herb
ert Hoover, with his remarkable rec
ord of administrative experience gain
ed in tasks of unusual difficulty,
would be a much more capable presi-
dent than the Democratic nominee
from the standpoint Of the home, in
dustry and agriculture.

In his Oklahoma City, speech, Governor Smith called the
roll of the Republicans who ever said anything favorable
about him. Among them he listed Charles Evans Hughes,
who, it is true, did say Smith 8 a master of politics"
But has anybody ever tried to deny it.
And isn't it precisely because the nation intends to keep
Tammany politics from the national government that the coun-
try is aroused in its determination to elect Herbert Hooverp
And that also. in all probability, is one of the reasons
why MI. Hughes is giving his efforts so so unstintingly for the
election of Hoover.

GOLD CUP RACE IS SOUGHT FOR
 DETROIT COURSE

DETROIT, Nov. 2.-The Gold cup, trophy of the most historic of Americas speedboat classics, may be sought next year after not having been contested for this year.
 The Detroit Yacht club hopes to hold the race over the Detroit river course. The owner of the cub was determined over that course in 1924.
 Dr. s. B. Smith of Cleveland, has agreed to compete for the cup if the race is held as part of the annual Detroit regatta.
 In 1924, when the race was de- cided at Detroit, Commodore liar ry B. Greening of Hamilton, On tario, won it with the Rainbow ". His boat was disqualified when it's construction was protested. The award was given to Baby Boot logger. of the Columbia Yacht club of New York.
 In turn the cup went to George Townsend of the Indian Harbor Yacht club, Greenwich, Conn.,, when his little speed5ter, Green wich Folly, outd.stanced Baby Bootlegger. He retained it the following year against challenge

BRIDES DROP
 WORD "OBEY"

WARSAW. Nov Pope Plus XI has approved changes in the Poish marriage ceremony elimin- ating "obey" from the pledge taken by the bride and making the pledges of both bride and groom identical.
 The new regulations will go into effect on January 1, 1929. Since 1914 the Roman Catholic Church of Poland has observed the rite approved for that coun- try by Pope Paul V. Immediately after the establishment of Po- land as an independent country in 1920 the Polish bishops found it necessary to introduce certain changes into the rite.
 They addressed a proposal to the Pope outlining changes, con sisting mostly of the substitution of Polish phrases for Latin in the prayers. All were approved by the Pope.
 Under the old regulations the bridegroom promised Hove, faith. fulness and marital fidelity, whereas the bride had to promise "love, faithfulness and obed iencc.'

 NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Fresh foes for the metropolitan heavyweight favorites are being imported from the provinces.
 The latest consignment consists of Otto Von Porat, Chicago; Tiny Roebuck, Kansas City, and Tuffy Griffith, Sioux City, Ia. Von Porat and Roebuck are heavyweighl,s and Griffith is a light-heayyweight.
 All three are booked for early engagements, scheduled as prelimi- naries to Tex Richards big elimi- nation tournament, which will be under headway by December.
 Outstanding among the new members of Gotham's big fistic family is Otto Won Porat, who held the heavyw eight championship of Norway when he came to America three years ago.
 Hard -boiled Yankee promoters failed to fall for the Norway cham pionship racket. asserting their ig- . norance of boxing championships in the Nordic region, so Otto has to get himself a reputation in America.
 This he apparently has done. Making his headquarters in Chi cago, Von Porat won nine of his last eighteen fights by knockouts and is heralded by Chicago critics as the hardest hitting young heavy weight in the land.
 Otto will have every opportun.ey to prove his vaunted hitting aDll- ity when he makes his metropon- tan debut in a 15-round bout with Pauline Uzcudun, November D. II his blows make any impression on the Basque wood cutter then local skeptics may fall in line Pauline himself is somewhat of a hitter. He recently chopped down Big Boy Peterson, wEo holGs a newspaper decision over Otto, only to lose the fight on a foul.
 Peterson also has figured in the past of Tiny Roebuck. who makca his local bow in one of the pre- liminary bouth on tle Paalino- Von Porat program. Tiny rar5o Big Boy to sleep in 15 sc. nds iu Kansas City last winter, brt thl Big one subsequently, took a new j. paper decision from Tiny

the way the girl smiled up into Old

enough to assure one thats her help

The Raines' buckskins came along

BANDIT CONFESSES
HE HELD Up TRAIN
Robbed Passengers Single
Handed-WiII Be Arraigned
for Mail Theft.
BY the Associated Press.

MONROE. La, December 3.-Clyde
Woodson, "a, bricklayer, reported to
have confessed to the hold-up of an
Illinois Central passenger train near
Monroe Saturday night, will be formally
arraigned before United States COM
missioner here today on charge of
robbery of the mail.
The young workman, although ad-
hitting to Sheriff Milton Coverdale
that he robbed passengers on the train,
denies he entered the mail car or that
he fired the shot which struck K. M.
Blount, Memphis. passenger on the
train, in the neck.
Motorist Furnishes Clue.
kTrest of Woodson came on informa-
tioR furnished by an autoiSt who had
J drivtSi the former from a point near
I. the train hold-up to Monroe yesterday.
The automobile driver became SuSpi-
cious and reported to police on arrival.
Officers nabbed WoodSon while the lat
ter is alleged to have been in the act
of robbing two negroes. A third negro
is said to have been victim of Wood
son shortly before his arrest.
Officers found only $46.20 and two
watches in Woodson'S possession, and
searching parties were organized to tour
the. vicinity of the hold-up. in the be-
lief that Woodson had hidden the loot,
estimated at $4,000.
WoodSon, who recently married a To-
year-old girl, told officers he was I'M
employed and that this prompted him
to turn to robbery.
Swinging aboard the engines tender
at Monroe, WoodSon is said to have ap-
peared suddenly i'll the cab few min
uteS after the trains departure and
forced the engineer and fireman to sur
render the train to his operation.
Woodson halted the engine after a few
moments, and when S. E. Frisbie, con-
ductor, came forward to ascertain the
trouble the latter was forced to submit
to Woodson's orders.
Passengers Warned.
The brakeman and fireman, however,
eluded WoodSon and rushed back to the
train, giving warning to passengers.
Several of them concealed most of their
jewelry and money before Woodson ar
rived.
Forcing Frisbie to collect the loot,
Woodson walked behind the conductor
Railway mail clerks are said to have
been relieved of their pistols and sew
eral registered letters are alleged to
have been removed from the mail car.
None of the passengers was armed
and the march down the aiSles of the
day coaches and Pullman cars was not
resisted. Several passengers asleep in
berths were aroused. Blount is said to
have been struck in the neck by a bull
let when he was slow in surrendering
his money.
A car carrying a funeral party was
not entered
Woodson is said to have leaped from
the train as it finally started for Shreve-
port, La.
