was formed. The same criticisms, We think. will hold good of most other regulatory commissions. Their main function has been, it seems, to make it easier for public utility corporations to get all they believe ought to be coming to them which is apenty. Profits of public utility organizations have never been more the regulatory commissions; their stocks have never grown so fat; mergers and combinations have never been So common.
 In Springfield the other night Major General James G. Harbord. |. s, A., retired said that govern ment through commissions has grown out of all proportions to our orderly national progress" The soldier is not president of the Radio Corporation of America, and in- cludes the Federal Radio Commits sion in his denunciatlon. Each action of the commission, he said. has had 10 be taken with one eye over it's shoulder al Congress, and that .ena- tors and congressman have tried to influence it in favor of special interests.
 No government bureau ever ceated has failed 10 attempt 10 ex- tend its field and aggrandize the importance of the politicians who operate it." remarked General Har- bord, The path, he continued "opens a vista wherein there will be federal control of our daily lives and con- duct from the cradle to the grave. with restrictions of every kind ad- ministered by Washington bureaus and enforced by federal officials, af- fecting everything that we enjoy and everything that we do."
 But the trouble arises when we try to the opposite extreme. If regula- ton has not proven successful, what guarantee is there that any other method would be equally unsuccess- ful? Let us return to the system Of political control, as largely exist ed before the regulatory bodies came into existence, and proof cer- tainly is not positive that the regu- lation by politicians direct would benefit either the public or the corporations.
 Before the regulatory commis- sions were formed corporations fair. ly we dominated the state legisla- lures. In the old days the New Haven railroad could get anything il wanted from the Legislature: charges were widely made that the railroad owned" the Legislature and such charges were not only made in Connecticut, but in almost all other states. Then, when the legislatures turned more radical and began listening 10 the public, two- cent 2 mile laws were passed in many states. and the railroads be- gan faNorng public utility commits sions to regulate the rates--and save the corporations from the applica ton of confiscatory rates Finally we have what we happen 10 possess, and nobody seems to be satisfied, not even the corporations,
 Let the critics be heard. We might join them occasionally. But 1t must be admitted that it is easier to criticise the results of these com missions than to evolve plan that will avoid regulation by politicians, as existed in the old days. and regu- lation by bureaucratic commissions, as exists today. When it comes to q workable substitute plan nobody seems to have anything worth while to say.

MAKE IMPROVEMENTS
ON co. FAIR GROUNDS

Improvements to be made on
the Roosevelt County Fair grounds
in 1929 include livestock barn,
grandstand, fence, well and minor
buildings necessary in conducting
a fair. The grounds have been
seeded with bronze grass to pro-
vide a firm sod and power connec-
tions will be made during the next
few months.
Plans for the barn have been
approved by the fair board and
county commissioners and bids on
the same were advertised with
September 10 as date of compile
tion. E. B. Keplinger of Bainville
was awarded the contract on
the livestock barn, at the June
meeting of the county board
The interest shown in building
up county fair in Roosevelt
county indicates that more build
ings will be needed in the near
future. Several departments are
being added this year and more
exhibits are expected in all de-
partments than at the 1928 show |

Regardless of the fact that the,

to the number of II declared they
had wonderful time at Scobey

was played on the extra good
course maintained there. Eigh-
teen holes were played.
All the Wolf Point players found
interesting opponents who either
beat or played their visitors very
close games. By agreement the
result of the match was determin
ed by the best 8 scores made by
the representatives of each club.
On this basis the score was so
close that the result was in doubt
until the last foursome finished
and reported But the final totals
showed the Wolves ahead once
more by II strokes-711 to 722

carried off the glory of the day
with card of 49, Chapman was

;ord of the score was brought
lome but it was said that Cook. |
Jatlin, Flint and Rathert were
mong the honored eight.
The boys say Scobey has a well

A protest in person made by a
small body of Indians, June 4.

structed across certain Indian
allOtments caused a temporary
halt in the work An attorney for
the Indians, Eric Noun, and
Agency Supt Chas. Eggers went
to Helena to get information on
the legal aspect of the situation.
Both Attorney General Foote
and United States Prosecuting At
torney Rankin gave answers to
the question put to them which
upheld the federal and
state highway authorities and the
officials of the Indian department
n their manner of procedure with

hat Sheriff Anderson acted in the /
course of duty and within his
in arresting the Indians
Who interfered with the work.
The only question at issue is
he price to be paid for the right
