A LARGER AND BETTER SCHOOL
BUILDING FOR PLENTYWOOD

The question of new high school building for
the P1entywood district is now being talked of
about the city, a school election looms up in the
future.
There is no question but what the present
PlentywoOd schools are inadequate for the needs
of the community and that many children from
the outlying districts unable to attend the local
schools because of lack of room.
Besides lack of room, the present school build
ing lacks many modern facilities, which are neces-
sary for the better training of the school children
both in the path of knowledge and physical
courses.
We will admit that the past year has left many
rather pessimistc when the subject of higher taxes
is preached, and rightly so. But the school prob
lem of Pentywood must be solved. It is not
question of the present only but Of the future
If the taxpayers is assured that Montana, Sher-
idan county and Plentywood is going to the dogs,
because we have had the misfortune of one poor
CROP following a succession of good ones, then
they will be against further taxation and satisfied
with the present limited school system, but if
they have faith in the future prosperity of this
commonwealth. and that it is to continue to grow,
Notwithstanding poor crops now and then, they
will have the foresight to see that brentwood
needs new school building now and if they are
ever going to have one, beginning must be made
at once to build up a fund for that purpose and
the larger the levy the sooner will the realization
of a larger and better school become a fact

THE PA(Y)TRIOTIC GAME

On another page we reproduce an excellent ar
tcle from The New Republic of New York. on the
activities of professional stoolpigeons which
should be of special interest to the readers of this
paper because of the fact that The Prodacers
News was the first publication in the United
States to expose the activities of the fink nest COW
cred in the story.
Working in conjunction with the Central Press
Association The Producers News brought the &C
1vities of Mr.. Harry Jung and his gang of stool
pigeons to the attention of Senator Wheeler, who
shortly afterwards introduced a resolution in the
senate calling for investigation of detective
agencies in relation to their activities in labor dis
putes.
We urge readers to read the story REPRINT
cd from The New Republic carefully. 1t may help
them 10 discount good deal of the tripe that an
pears IN the capitalist press under the banner of
patriotism. 1t can be stated without fear of sue
cessful contradiction that the patriotism of the
professional shouters for the flag and our institu-
tons has a cash basis
We sincerely hope that Wheeler's resolution will
be reported out of committee soon and that
thoro investigation of the pernicous activities Of
tne stoolplgeons will be made, so that the public
may know why they paytrioteering and where
their funds come from

Of the Daniels County underworld, that ne stops
barking at Plentywood lest the doings Of the boot
leggers and gamblers in Scobey be called to pub
lie attention? Or has something that happened In
Scobey early this week, of nature similar to the
Incident in Sheridan county, dampened the ardor
of Burleque Bowler's crusade for moral reform IN
Plentywood?
Whatever may be the Burley did not
have word to say about Sheridan County last
week. He did not have line about The Produc-
ers News or the monsters" Charles E. Taylor and
Rodney Salisbury. 1t would be too bad if Burley
developed a streak of sanity and shut up his vocal
orifce The people need other relief besides what
the farm board bangles before their eyes. Burley
is first-class joke and he would not be playing
the game as is expected of him if he quits making
an ass of himself

property from stray animals making unsightly
messes around their homes, destroying whatever
property may lay under their feet and eating
expensive fodder which they may have provided

Another article that only takes
up unnecessary space is Albert
Almberg's "Sidedoor Pullman" 1t
is rather peculiar the way he tells
of his trip. He seems TO want to
tell of his experience in the army
more than anything else. l won

if he only got as far as some

fers of the industrial lords and
the grain gamblers. They hire
scribblers to write columns and
books which paint in lurid cOlOrs
the evils of organization. They
dwell painfully on the salaries
paid to leaders of farm and labor
organizations. They don't feature,
however, the fabulous sums paid
to captains of industry and gen.

neither do they view with alarm

A fellow who writes under the

claims he knows North Dakota

grieved over the way the Farmers

bitter tears each week for the
poor farmers, who he says are
supporting Thatcher, Kicker ct al
