cuLBgRTsoN's BRIDGE PROJECT

CuIbertson and a large portion of the east end of the county is
deeply interested in securing a bridge across the Missouri near Cl-
bertson, something the people of that part of Roosevelt county and
the farmers Of Richand county greatly need. AS vitality essential
to the financing of the project, in cooperation with the State High
way commission and the Federal Bureau of roads, the county commits
sioners granted a petition from Culbertson praying that the question
of a five mill levy, for this project, be submitted to the voters Of
the county at the primaries July Is Voters will find a small ballot
on which to express their decision on this question.
The Herald believes the voters of the west end of the county can
well afford to come to the aid of our sister city and vote YES
on the five mill Culbertson bridge levy. Wolf Point and all this
end of the county is extremely fortunate in having secured a greatly
needed bridge over the common barrier to travel industry and de-
velopment without q cent OF cost to the county, except for a con
Meeting road. This small levy will provide the counys share. some
$4,000, and make it possible for the east end OF the county to have
a free, two-way bridge. It viii be worth far more than that to the
county as a whole. Let's give it a virtually unanimous vote. Help
ing each other, our county and our state has opposing and fighting
each other beaten at every turn of the road to progress and prosperity
A delegation Of CulbertsOn men visited Wolf Point a few days ao
and in presenting their case expressed themselves as regretful that
the county political fight had broken out again, and especially sorry
that there were candidates from Culbertson on the Economy" ticket
something that was beyond their control

THE COUNTY POLITICAL ISSUES

In this issue readers, especially voters and taxpayers OF Roosevelt
county, will find Of vital interest to them, several pieces of political
argument ard advertising, some eminating from the Economy" ticket
adherents and some presented by the regular Republican ticket.
Presumably each is offering the best they have to offer in support
of their contentious.
The Herald has already expressed itself o N the issues and the
leading candidates. It is wholly unnecessary to review the matter
covered in these political advertisements, or to discuss the virtue
or lack of it in the various aspirants for county Office. What we
do feel called upon to do is appeal to our voterTeaders to inform
themselves N the facts and records by carefully reading all that
is presented for their consideration. We believe it is a voters duty
to know, as well as he can, what he is doing and why he is doing
it when he goes to the polls.
We felt we were informed on the real situation in Roosevelt
countys business affairs before going on record in favor of retaining
the present officials in the positions responsible for the countys pro-
gressive, thriving, climbing outofdebt condition. All the facts and
figures since presented support our position. Roosevelt county is
doing well under the present officials. Do you wish to keep it SO
or do you want a chance on something different because a few men
are sore and few more want or need office? That is the real ques-
rin 1t issue

the meetings that had been and
the coming Bridge Day and Siam

siderable deficit to make up.
One OF the finest programs was
the play "Other Peoples Bust
ness" given Sunday night at the

good, clean comedy, full of funny
situations and was beautifully
presented by the Franklin play
ers. The Mollusc, a more serious

poses Of b-roadcasting was to

Geo. Toomey, who is an a%ll-around

has a wealth of wit and at the
same time his lecture had consid-
cradle meat in it. The Radio

On account Of the cold and the
fact that the tent was not up the

after it had been blown down by
