ticket.
Favoring endorsement Of candidates
for congress. governor and attorney
general.
Opposing endorsement Of : candi-
date for governor regardless Of any
other action.
Opposing any endorsements.
In some county sessions, opinions
were expressed that the outstanding
objective Of the state convention
should be to take action toward bring
ing about the defeat Of Gov. william
LANCER in his race for reelection.
Certain Candidates Favored

Republicans are expected to urge sup
port Of Thomas Noodle. Democratic

New York. April 23.-(P)-The larg-

to the annual meeting Monday Of The

Members Of the organization heard

the principal speaker at the annual
luncheon.
Frank B. Noyes, president. who
presided at the luncheon, and who
gave the annual toast TO the presi-
dent Of the United States, also spoke
briefly on the freedom Of the press.
I'VE believe said Noyes' prepared
address, mot only that the constitu-
tional right Of the free press should
be scrupulously guarded, but, beyond
that, that the collection and distribu-
ton Of the news should be equally
scrupulously guarded that it shall not
fall into the hands Of special inter-
ests, whether capitalistic or Commune
istic. but shall remain unbiased. That
Is our trusteeship, and, God permit
ting, We will honor It,"
In his toast to President Roosevelt,
Noyes recalled q phrase from q presi-
DENTAL nominating speech which
stuck In his memory, and added:
Praises Gallant Front
The speaker characterized his can
didate as q happy warrior and to
this day I can invent no more apt
description Of the man I have in mind
the orator who was then describing
another man-than is contained in
these same two words, the Happy
Warrior who today In q world per-
picked beyond words In meeting prob
lens that are anguishing troubled
peoples, still maintains q gallant and
unperturbed front and meets his
problems with undiminished optim-
ISM"
General Manager Cooper recalled
that at one time staff Of 10 or IL
men covered q national convention.
Such staff. however. he said, could
not tell member newspapers through
out the entire country what was go
ing on In their respective state del
egations.
Accordingly, at the national con-
ventions in 1928, the first since this
management was installed, there were
s. men and women assigned to the
Job. In 1882 there were u.s."
He also told Of the increase Of the
Washington staff to sixty-five through

Mine Work Must
Start Not Later
Than August II
That Is Stipulated in Contract Covering
Big Gold Ore Deposit
Near Warland

Work on the big deposit of gold bear
ing ore at Warland must be Started not
later than August IL Of this year is the
information that comes to the Western
News from parties interested in the
properties there. Provisions of the lease
state that actual work must be started
within four months and August II is
the expiration date After starting, work
must not be suspended for more than
30 days at any one time.
The four men who have leased the
property through an agent, to what is
confidently believed to be the A. c.
M. Co, are c. w. Hoyt, F. M. Head,
Fred Eby and NJ j. Peterson.
The ore deposit is apparently an ex-
tensive one and judging from what
assays have been made, low grade
one, with values running from $500 to
$1,000 ton. Just what the average re-
turn from the entire body will be can
not be said at this time as sufficient
development of the property has not
been made to determine that. The
quartz is gray in color and quite hard
This deposit of ore is not far from
Warland and lies about mile from the
railroad. An experienced mining man
said it gives every evidence OF being a
second Homestake.
Numerous other claims have been
filed in that locality, There is still an
other large body Of gold ore at con-
siderable distance from the one that has
been leased Herb Daniels has filed on
that one and assays show that it runs
about $3.50 ton in gold

truth Of it. Driving to Libby from Troy
Tuesday night, when he was just above
the Orino work on the highway, sud-
denly. a blast was fired below him
A rock about half the side of baseball
flew from the explosion, cut three
grooves in the steel casing and in the
felt Of the window in the door Of his
car and struck him on the side Of the
head. The force of the flying rock had
been spent by the time it struck Powell
and did not injure him. Powell says the
peculiar thing of the whole affair is
that the mountainside bulges out over
where the blast was set off and how
the rock ever reached him is mystery

Must Keep
Politics Out
OF Relief
So Says T. c. Spaulding,
State Director, in Letter
Sent to Workers.
MUST NOT BE MADE
POLITICAL FOOTBALL

Relief administrators throughout
Montana are in receipt of a circular
from T. c. Spaulding, state relief adj
ministrator, in which Spaulding appeals
to all employees and county committees
to keep politics out of relief administra-
ton.
Spaulding cited federal relief adj
ministration bulletin issued last July
which said, There shall be no discrim-
nation because of race, religion, color,
noncitizenship, political utilization or
because of membership in any special
or selected group"
rector Spaulding, that some attempts
may be made looking toward the secur-
ing of political preferment in connec-
ton with the relief program. This can
not be accomplished under the present
setup, as such procedure would be in
direct contravention to the desires of
the president and breach of trust on
the part of myself and the Montana
relief commission.
$50 long as / am director, and I
know with the approval of the Montana
relief commission, shall expect every
representative of the relief organization
to refrain from playing politics am
assured that all county committees, who
have unselfishly devoted themselves to
the relief program will see that these
directions are fully complied with"
In my mind" Director Spaulding
concluded, 1T would be most despic-
able violation of the public trust, a
direct departure from the presidents
wishes and decidedly unpopular move
to those on our relief rolls were anyone
to attempt to make political football
out of the Montana relief commission.
AS long as the present setup exists,
there will be no politics connected with
it,

1t is graduation time And it is there
fore pertinent to remark again, in the
passing, THAT youth must be served"
Oh, yes, youth must be served, God
bless EN-. They must be given every
opportunity-and led wisely and we'll.
Their enthusiasm is pleasing and yalu-
able. Their wisdom will grow with age.
Here is something for youth to pom

who think a man of 30 is senile and
ready for the grave.
Some 40 odd years ago young man
from Lancashire came to America. He
worked in New York City short time
as a reporter, then got himself desk
job. He progressed from desk to desk
until at last he became managing editor
of one Of the greatest of all the worlds
newspapers.
