to favor Cutting as it has favored
Hiram johnson in California and Bob
La Toilette in Wisconsin. If Chavez
is nominated, there will be nothing
for the Democratic Senatorial Cam
paign Committee to do but to go ahead
and support him in the campaign.
Senator Lewis, chairman of that COM
mittee, is on his way into the West
now and New Mexico is one of the
States which he particularly plans to
visit, in order to canvas the situation
there.
Secretary Daniel F. Roper of the
Department Of Commerce, the depart
ment which has particularly to do
with business and industry of the
Nation, delivered last night in the
National Radio Forum an address of
Importance and significance. Coming
from member Of the cabinet, it must
appear to be an effort to re-establish
confidence among business men. He
asserted emphatically that the admin
istration is anxious to aid business,
and that 1t Is not setting its face
against the profit motive in Amer
ican life. Some Of the critics of the
new deal have predicted that even
tually definite attack ON the profit
system would be made.
While Mr.. Roper's address to the
Nation over the radio was long ago
arranged for, his statements reassur-
ing to business and to the people gen..
orally came at the exact time, almost,
as the launching Of the new American
Liberty League. Whether this reas-
surance was intended as an Offset to
the set-up Of an organization which
can only be deemed suspicious, If
nothing more, Of the new deal, Is
matter Of surmise. But certainly the
Secretarys speech must operate 30.

E WINS
IN NATIONAL SHOOT

According to information re-
ceived from the competitions di-
vision of the National Rifle assoc
iation, Glenn Jackson of the Red
Lodge Rifle and Pistol club has
placed third in the national tyro
prone match with a score of 397
out of a possible 400.
First place was won with a
399x40C by E. P. Martin of Sparta,
Wis, second by F. David of
Princeton, N. ]. Medals are
awarded to the winners which
automatically takes them out of
the tyro class, a tyro being one
who has not won a medal or tro-
ply in competition.
Shooters from all parts of the
country take part in this annual
tyro indoor gallery match of forty
shots for record, and Mr.. Jackson
was the only entry from Montana,
which puts him and the local club
in the limelight among Montana
clubs and shooting enthusiasts.

GIGS, CASH
LOOT OF E
AT JOLIET STORE

Ten cases of beer, four or five
dollars in cash, three cartons of
cigarettes and a quantity of to-
bacco, valued at between three or
four dollars, was the loot OBJ
tanned by thieves who broke into
the beer parlor of Chris Jensen at
Joliet sometime early this morn
ing.
Sheriff Jack McFate and I'm
dersheriff Bill Moore, who were
called to investigate, found a win
dow shattered in the rear of the
building by which the thieves APP
parently gained entrance to the
place. A rear door was also found
opened, officers said, by which
they apparently departed with the
loot, the items of which seem to
indicate that the perpetrators are
planning a spree.
Officers placed the time of the
robbery as occurring sometime be-
tween the hours of l a. m. and 6
a. m. this morning.

Therefore, it is my opinion
that in the case you state, sue
cessors to all five trustees must
be elected at the coming school
election. That the provisions of
section 1901 aforementioned do
not apply. That two trustees will
have to be elected for three year
terms, and the three others will
have to be elected to fill out the
unexpired terms of those trustees
whose offices are now being filled
by appointees."
Commenting further on his
opinion, Mr.. Conwell said:
"Your question supra brings to
mind two phases of our school
law which seems to me to be
somewhat in conflict, to-wit:
Ia majority of the members
of the school board should hold
over.
2. Appointees hold office only
until the next general election.
"The first phase above stated is
in direct conflict with section "a
of article s of our state constitu-
ton. In that connection, the SUI
preme court in the case of the
state, ex. rel, MCGOWAN, ct. al,
v. Sedgwick, 46 Montana 100,
said:
In every instance of appoint
ment to fill a vacancy in an cleo
tive office, unless an exception be
made in the office of county COM
missioner, the constitution specif-
ically limits the tenure of the APP
pointee of the next general cleo
ton or until his successor is elect
ed and qualified; and the phrase
until his successor is elected and
qualified" is literally construed by
the constitution itself, In the con-
Guiding sentence of section 81 Of
article s: "a person elected to
fill a vacancy shall hold office UNI
til the expiration of the term for
which the person he succeeds was
elected" for, if an appointee holds
for the residue of the term then
there could never be "a person
elected to fill a vacancy" if an
appointment had been made. That
statement is ineligible only up
on the theory that the appointee
holds only until the next general
election or until the person elect
ed for the residue of the term

correctly stated the law and that

COUNTY attorneys RULING ON SCHOOL
ELECTION UPHELD BY ATTORNEY GENERAL

School district No. 1, which
comprises the city of Red Lodge
and vicinity, must elect five new
trustees at the coming school cleo
ton on April 7, according to an
Interpretation of the law rend-
cred to Miss Elizabeth Duffield,
county superintendent of schools,
|by County Attorney E. P. Con-
well. The opinion of the county
attorney was confirmed at the of
flee of the attorney general in
Helena.
In a correspondence between the
superintendent of schools and the
county attorney dealing with the
subject, Miss Duffield asked:
School district No. /, which
comprises the city of Red Lodge
and it's %environs, is a second class
school district and therefore has
five trustees. The term of every
one of them expires this spring as
the terms of two of them regular
ly expire and the other three are
serving by appointment and of
curse their terms will expire this
spring also.
"Now will the trustees draw
lots in accordance with the pro-
visions of section 1901, chapter
78, found in the School Laws of
Montana, 1881, or will successors
to each and all of them have to be
elected at the coming school cleo
ton to be held on April 7w,1994?"
In rendering his opinion, Coun-
ty Attorney Conwell said:
"Your question is one that has
engaged the attention of this Of
flee many times in past years.
Section 1901, Revised Codes of
Montana, 1921, and the section
that it succeeded have been con-
strued by attorney generals on
various occasions but it seems to
me that the rule as layed down on
page 81, volume 10, Opinions of
the Attorney General, is the log
ical one to follow in all cases. In
that opinion, the attorney general
speaks as follows:
This office has held in opin-
ions dated Feb. q, 1914, March
Is, 1915, and March %, 1917, 1.-THE
latter opinion being reported in
volume Z, Opinions of the Attor-
ney General, p. 59), that the pro-
visions of section 1901, Revised
Codes of 1921, do not apply to
elections to fill vacancies, but APP
ply only at the close of a regular
term, and in that case, trustees
should be elected for regular
terms and also to fill out the un-
expired terms of those holding by
appointment

CODE OFFERED TO
STATE MERCHANTS
Code Proposed Submitted
To Merchants in
$40 Towns

Proposal for a code for Mon
tana has been mailed to a thous-
and merchants in the state, it was
announced by the Associated Mer-
chants of Montana today. At least
one copy has been mailed to a
prominent merchant in each of
the $40 towns in the state with a
population of 30 or more. The as
ISOLATION is urging every merch-
ant to examine it carefully and
make suggestions for changes that
will make working conditions for
Montana merchants as satisfac-
tory as possible.
Under the proposed code all re-
tailers, food dealers, both whole
sale and retail, and druggists will
be included. The code differs
from the national code in that the
loss leader provision has been
made more specific and definite,
and in the trade practices which
are drawn to fit Montana prob
lens. The code when approved
will be administered by a state
code authority composed Of Mon
tana representatives of the bust
nesses coming under the code.
After approval by a majority
of Montana merchants the code
will be submitted to the national
recovery administrator, General
Hugh S. johnson, for approval.
The following persons in this
region have copies of the code and
are urging all of the merchants to
come in and examine it:
Edward Bloom of Red Lodge.
Jankovich and Pekich of Bear
creek.
G. T. Lester of Belfry.
J.. w. Miller of Bowler.
a.. G. Anderson of Boyd.
Levander and OVERLY of Bridg-

CARBON GETS WIN
ON KLEIN, LAUREL
Play Bearcreek Tonight in
Final Game Before
"B" Tourney

With only one game remaining
on their schedule before they enter
the "B" district elimination at
Laurel next Wednesday, Carbon
county high hoopsters remained
~invincible this week, having reg
istered their fifteenth and six
teenth straight wins of the sea-
son over Laurel, 43-16, on the
Laurel floor last Wednesday and
over Klein, 1920, in their last
home appearance here Friday
night.
Tonight the local cagers play a
return engagement with their an
cient rivals, B~earcreek high, on
the Bearcreek floor. The outcome
is extremely doubtful in view of
the fact that in their previous
clash, the C. G. H. S. hoopsters
emerged on the better side of a
slim marginal victory of 1925 on
the Bearcreek team.
On the Washington hall court
Friday night, the Klein quint OPP
ened in an early offensive on the
Carbon goal and registered often
enough to take a slender SO mar
gin over the locals at the end of
the first quarter. Cebull, Klein
forward, was responsible for most
of the first period scoring of the
Klein outfit, while Brown, for
ward, and Zupan, center, regist-
cred for Carbon.
At the opening of the second
canto, the local marksmen began
to click and by the middle of the
period piled up a is count before
the visitors could add to their
scoring. Brown placed three floor
shots to lead a Carbon attack
which gave the locals a 1912
edge at the intermission. In the
third canto the Carbon machine
held its second period pace, but
also found a more alert Klein
squad. Zupan scored two from
the floor which with another from
Niemi and two free throws from
Doran gave the locals a 31-18 lead
on the visitors at the end of the
period.
Going to the final chapter, the
Carbon quint found the visitors
desperate and playing a rough
brand of ball. Numerous person.
ais were marked against mem
bers of the Klein outfit, and in the
resulting gratis shots the Carbon
squad scored with a vengeance,
largely to their final period scor-
ing by this method. Niemi reg
istered the only floor shot made
by the locals in the last canto,
while a lone floo rcounter from
Pavich, Klein guard, was the best
the visitors could do to top off
their evenings work.
Brown was the heavy gunner of
the evening, tallying IL counters.
He was followed closely by his
teammates, Doran with ten and
Zupan with nine. Cebull and Paw

to seep through or around it, and
the gate must be so installed that
a lock can be placed thereon, so
as to permit the water user to
close the gate but not to permit
him to open it beyond the point at
which the water commissioner has
set and locked the gate.
In all probability, the court will
appoint a water commissioner to
check over these boxes about
April 16, the court order reads.
Such commissioner could probably
check them over in a week, but he
would need the assistance of an
engineer. The engineer whom the
court would designate for this
task is Malcolm G. Swan, former
surveyor for Carbon county, and
if there is no serious objection to
him, he will probably be the en-
gineer to check these boxes, the
order concludes.

cussed, while in the eighth grade
"The Perfect Tribute" was read
by the teacher.

ence McIntosh's fifth grade class,
which also included talks on
Lincoln and the singing of patri-
otto songs.
At the Field school Miss Bar
bara Sanderson's second graders
read selections dealing with var
ious phases of Lincoln's life; Mrs.
Mayme Anderson's first grade
class devoted its language period
to a short Lincoln program which
included group singing, a flag sa-
lutte and featured the dramatiza-
ton of short stories about
Lincoln's life and the memorizing
of the poem Lincoln" The third
grade class of Miss Gladys Bow
man observed the day in songs
and stories about Lincoln, "Ten
Events of Lincoln's Life" was Civ
en- by five boy and five girl mem
bers of the class; Miss Estelle
Provinse's fourth grade class OPP
ened their program with a flag
salute and the singing of patriotic
songs, the teacher read a short
story of Lincoln's early life and
supplemented it with pictures and
information that were gathered

and second grade classes of Miss
Lillian Jarussi learned a Lincoln
song and made a poster and their
program featured the reading of
stories about Lincoln; Miss Abb
gail Doran's fourth graders sang
several songs in keeping with the
