THE LITERARY DIGEST POLL

In discussing the tabulation totals of the Literary Digest straw
vote O enforcement, modification or repeal of the 18th amendment
to the federal constitution the Wilison Herald says:
ut may be that there is far too much Importance attached to this
poll If there are those, for example, who believe that the apparent
wet" plurality is an Indication that repeal of the eighteenth amend
ment and the Volstead law will follow, they overlook several things
that have an important bearing on the subject.
"n the first place, the present congress is no doubt as dry" a
body a. any of it's predecessors, and the chance of the adoption of a
In the second place, if such a resolution should be adopted, there Is
even less likelihood of the possibility of securing ratification by the
necessary number of states, and a careful study of the Digest vote
will show this to any person who takes the trouble to analyze the
figures.
Assuming that the poll is an absolutely fair cross section of the
public opinion in the United States, there is still room for argument
as to whether or not the vote indicates that a popular vote n the
question today would Oh would not result in the repeal of the law-of
course there is no way Of getting such a vote, but it is merely sug-
gested for arguments sake. In case of such a vote, who can pre-
dict how the "modihcaionsts" would vote? The vets believe that
those who have so voted are opposed to the present law, which may
be true; but the drys have just as good a reason to claim that these
voters are opposed to repeal SO there you are.
"But there is room for argument as to the fairness Of the poll,
1t is likely that the ballots are being distributed as fairly Is it is
practicable to perform such a task and that the distinction Is fair
so far as the men are concerned; but, the charge is quite probably
true that only a small proportion of the ballots is going to women
who have fully as much to say at the ballot box as the men, and who
say it more unanimously for enforcement than the same number
If men. In this connection it is said that out of some LOO ballots
delivered through one post office, less than five per cent went to
women. 1t is also probable that the ballots re going principally to
he residents of cities, because Of the greater difficulty of securing the
. nes of atrr3erg, and this, also might tend to a poorer showing for
-orcerent than if a perfect cross section could be procured.
$50 while the poll is interesting, there appears to be n o real
son for getting excited about it or for taking it very seriously"

JUST KARIN TO COME

The surprising amount of attention to it that has come to the
surface since the announcement of the date of Bridge Day is an
accurate indication of the interest the public will manifest in that
epoch making event.
From far and near letters IRE pouring in to Chairman Rathert
of the committee O. arrangements. No special effort has yet been
made to advertise the date but it is the sort of news that papers
everywhere like to copy and publish. All sorts of people are await
ing detailed information and asking many questions. People are
now making their touring plans for the summer and the Wolf Point
bridge dedication and the celebration of the opening of the Roose-
welt highway through the Rockies re the sort of unusual atrac-
tions that people are anxious to attend. Besides tourists from far
away states, thousands will come from a radius of 200 miles or
more around here-the annual Stampede being a big added attrac-
ton The assemblage of people who will be here from before July
9 until after July - will be of a number never see in this part
of the state.
And here is something to think about. This occasion will bring
with it to Wolf Point and community both DUTY and OPPORTUN-
ITY. Duty to provide the necessities and comforts a great throng
expects, opportunity to advertise eastern Montana in general and
this section in particular. Such rare opportunities come seldom.
If we manage this monster job in a style that lets visitors
leave with good Impressions, pleasant memories and the feeling that
their trip was worth while, it will be the biggest kind Of a boost
for everything concerned. 1t can be done but will call for a lot of
earnest, cheerful cooperation. Let us all become Bridge Day minded
and get behind the committee and work. It's none too 500 to start

WHAT COLOR WILL YOU
HAVE YOUR RABBIT FUR?

Fur farms are among the young
industries getting under way in
Wolf Point. In looking through
the 1880 guide book of the Amer
lean Rabbit and Cavy Breeders
Association, the name of Connie
Shenkenberger is found listed as
a breeder Of Chinchilla rabbits.
Connie is also getting a good
start with mink.
The growth of the rabbit in
dustry has been almost as rapid
as the fox industry. A perusal OF
the guide book shows that a wide
variety of markings and color
ings in rabbits has been achieved
through careful breeding. Milady
can almost choose a fur to suit
her complexion. Mr.. Shenken-
berger has, as the foundation Of
his rabbitry, some very beauti-
full highly bred animals. A pic
ture of one of these is printed in
the guide book referred to, a sill
e black giant doe, purchased
of E. Heilman of Eureka, S. Oak.
Rabbits are bred for both the
fur and the meat and a surpris-
ingly large number of people are
engaging in the business in the
United States, according to the
published lists.
F. B. Turner also has a few
choice animals and is experiment
ing in rabbit breeding.

PUBLICITY FOR MONTANA

Montana is in need of more publicity. This long has been rec
ognized in nearly every part of the state, but nothing much has ever
been done about it until this year.
Now an effort is being made to arouse all communities to the
necessity Of getting wider distribution of the inducements that Mon
tara has to offer to the prospective settler, the man looking for sound
investment and the vacahonist.
There are opportunities in the Treasure state for all Of these
The difficulty has been in getting information to the right people
Under the stimulus furnished at a meeting at Helena some weeks
ago, the effort has been started Through the state department OF
agriculture and publicity.
The rest of the world hears all about the unfortunate things
that happen in Montana, but the vast amount of material that means
wealth and health to millions will forever remain a deep secret unless
some measures are taken to reveal it.

SO far this may sound like a slam
on the golfers, but really it is
not, it's a compliment, and here
is the instance that proves it.
One night last week a fellow
described at a little brown man,
possibly a member of a band of
Filipinos in town at the time, was
discovered shopping around the
c. S. Bechtel home and peeking
into the windows. By the time
Mr.. Bechted got out doors the
man had left and gone to the J..
L. Jensen home. Mr.. Bechtel OBJ
served his movements there and
saw him peeking into various
windows and investigating porch
es. Bechtel went to the Jensen
home and advised Mr.. Jensen
what was going on. Together
they went out doors, slipped
quickly around the corner of the
house and captured the inquisi-
tive stranger. They decided that
Jensen was to hold the man while
Bechtel went inside and got the
police on the phone.
l. L., who is cashier of the
First National bank, is tall and
why, built for speed and endur-
ance. He takes some outdoor
training on the golf links but has
been passing through a spell of
the flu and unable to keep in
training.
His captive fought hard and
finally got away from him. But
it vas not a total loss. Taking
an inventory of himself after
the battle Irv found in his hand
a chain with a watch dangling
from it. That was not so bad for
just a few minutes work so he
set out in pursuit of his late ad-
versary who was beating it down
the street. Irv was gaining rap
idly and got quite near when the
little brown man slowed up, a
turning, reached in a rear pock-
ct for something. No, reader, you
are wrong. He reached for a
knife instead Of a flask. IrY
says 81 v saw a human be-
ing assume such a cat-like, SINK
ing, menacing attitude. Some way
| lost all ambition to catch tnat
chap. The watch was enough,
didn't want the knife"
