sonal interest and not for yours
as they would have you believe.
you would be much ahead and
save your executive a lot OF
trouble.
Il have never had any inten-
ton of passing a sales tax that
would have to be paid by the
consumer, and if the present legis-
lature passes one. I will veto it.
Yours truly,
IF. H. COONEY,
Governor"
Heb! Heb! Heb! Pardon me
for a moment, as I wish to ex-
plain that the three words at the
head of this paragraph indicate
extreme mirth. It's a very con-
yenient way to express it, because
it can be interpreted in several
different ways. It does away with
contortion of the face, thereby
causing wrinkles and not only
that, but one can laugh in this
manner without getting boisterous
and attracting a lot of attention.
Try it, sometime. I have a friend
who, apparently, gets Joyous in
this manner. I'm always a little
Uncertain whether he is laugh
ing or simply out of breath. I
get quite a kick out of his laugh;
in fact, I sometimes get so full
of kick that I have an intense de-
sire. at times almost irresistible,
to pass a part of my kick on to
him.
Passing back to the letter of
his excellency, the governor, I
would presume to say that the
committee who sent the resolution
to the governor would not, for the
world, criticize him for his opin-
ion in the matter of a sales tax.
I know that the writer wouldn't.
Inasmuch as ones opinion is
about all that one has left, every
fellow has a perfect right to do
with it as he seeS fit. Certainly,
We do not criticize his tone or
use of language, because he, ap-
parently, speaks the same Ian
guage we do. Neither do we criti-
CHE, unlike him, his understanding
OF the matter in hand, beyond
simply calling your attention to
the last paragraph of his letter.
Uh, huh.
The old business of Santa Claus

We note that Judge Goddard
found a twenty dollar bill in
Billings. That in itself should be
headline stuff. but the Judge, on
top of that, saw that the money
was returned to the rightful

entering into his second childhood.

lMMATERlAL COMMENT
By Yours Truly, II. I. r.
P E YEAR!

Yes sir. that's just the way we
feel about it. We wish you a Hap
py New Year. Not saying any
thing about a prosperous New
Year OF a bounteous New Year
OF any other kind of a new year,
only a Happy New Year. We may
be a little late in Offering our
New Years compliment, any
how, it's here and you can take
it or leave it. Conditions may or
may not be any better, but just
the same folks are more cheerful
because it seems to be easier to
bring our outlook down a few
notches to conform with the
times than to bring the times
UP to conform with our outlook.
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime:
And, departing, leave behind US
Footprints on the sands of time.

AT a meeting of the Farmers
Union some time ago, discussion
was centered on a proposed sales
tax before the legislature, which
was sponsored by the governor.
The discussion finally resulted in
the appointment by the chair
man of a committee to draft a
resolution opposing a sales tax,
with instructions to send one to
the governor. In reply, the com-
mlttee received the following let
ter from his excellency, repro
duced herewith, word for word.
COMING for comma:
Gentlemen:
This will acknowledge re-
ceipt of resolution, which I find
on my desk.
If you gentlemen, before
jumping at a conclusion would
take the trouble to investigate
what the governor was trying to
do for the people of Montana,
and before drawing your own YER
dict and sending resolutions of
this kind it would be a whole lot
better for all concerned.
las governor of the state of
Montana, I had prepared a bill
which I intend to present to the
legislature, which you refer to as
the .so-called sales tax bill. which
would not only collect from the
big interests of Montana about
two million dollars, which they
are not paving at present. and
would collect another million dol
lars from other interests in Mon
tana, paying little or no taxes:
but my intention was to have
passed about three-quarters of a
million dollars or more back to
the counties to relieve the farm
r on their burden of school
taxes.
Such resolutions as yours,
which you have passed on some
thing about which you know moth
ing, is enough to discourage any
one who is trying to do some
thing for the property owners of
the country, who have been over
burdened with taxes for many
years. In place Of passing reso-
lutions Of this kind II you would
take the trouble Of sending a
representative here and talk the
matter over and find out, what
was being done without listening
to would-be ;agftators, who are
speaking only for their own per-.

CALVIN WOLCOTT.
Dear Boys and Girls
Good for you, boys and girls
of the Hardin schools. These news
items make a real interesting
Korner for us. Why can't we
hear from more country schools?
How many schools are planning
for a February program? The
month is so filled with the BIRTH
days of important historical men
that it seems fitting to have
patriotic programs in u schools.
If the weather man continues
a few weeks longer as he has
started out this year, We will be
hearing birds sing and seeing
green grass pretty early, won't
We? Maybe that is just what folks
need. 1t will give a better chance
for our daddies to find work, I
think, and that seems to be what
we need right now. But we will
wish for plenty of nice spring
rains to make everything grow.
Affectionately,
AUNT BETTY.

Wants Davis
Well Guarded
Solicitor Long Writes
Warden Letter to Guard
Killer Carefully

R~aleigh.-Solicitor Zeb V. Long
of S%tatesville, who prosecuted the
notorious Ralph Davis, killer, high
way robber, escaped convict and a
man deemed an outlaw, has written
Warden Haywood H. Honeycutt of
states prison urging him to be most
diligent in seeing to it that Davis
does not again escape the prison and
there is a perfectly good reason for
the letter.
Davis, according to the solicitor,
has "threatened' to kill him if he
ever gets out of prison. Further
more, Solicitor Long thinks Davis
would kill a man just for a pack
age of cigarettes"
The rather lengthy letter the soil
.citor wrote the warden goes on to
describe just how "bad" a man
Davis really is. Solicitor Long,
who ~retires from his present office
on January 1 to be succeeded by
Charles Coggin of Salisbury, did
not tell the warden anything he
did not already know about the
convicted killer, who has total of
1870 years III sentences and sus-
pended sentences given him as re-
suit of his Staying of the Irede1l
sheriff and highway robberies per
petrated in Rowan.
Solicitor Long said he wrote the
letter at the suggestion of Judge
M. Stack, who imposed three
ten-year sentences on Davis lit
Rowan superior court.
Davis is now being kept on arr
upper tier in Death Row" section
of the prison. 1t is a section of the
regarded as escape-proof.
