GIN MARRIAGE LAW
KNOCKED UTB
REFERENDUM LIST

Montana's Inflated gin marriage
law" passed into the limbo OF dead and
dying things this week when referen-
dun petitions containing IS per cent
or more of signatures from % coun-
ties Of the state were filed with Sec
rotary OF State Sam Mitchell,
The referendum campaign, initiated
in Billings, won hearty support all over
Montana.
Inauguarated as a morals measure,
and to check the reckless use OF the
marriage vow, certain weaknesses in
the bill made it imperative and a
nuisance.
Strong opposition from certain grou-
ps who object to physical examina-
ton on religious grounds was encount-
cred Immediately. The heavy fees for
such examinations and the subjecting
of young brides and grooms to the ex-
aminations was distastefuL. Many
young couple evaded the law by en-
tering neighboring states for the we'd
ding fetes.
Merchants, particularly jewelers., ma
gistrates and ministers joined in OPP
posing the law.
It now is imperative and goes be-
fore the people to be voted upon at the
next general election.

EFFORTS TO MAINTAIN PRE-
VALLING RATES

The work-relief appropriation bill,
raising about five billion dollars to car
ry on the work relief program, con
tanned a provision for what is called
a subsistence wage a wage that
would, ii was claimed, allow a man to
exist r. a wage that would temporar-
lily permit him to live on his earnings.
The scale was to be much lower than
the prevailing wages of the country.
The effect would have been to pull
down the wage scale of the country
everywhere, and | felt that such a cour-
Sc at this time could not be justified.
l am sure that a study Of this CON
troversial bill will convince any fair
minded person that the McCarran am
endment, providing for the prevailing
scale OF wages in all work under this
relief program, was the only course to
pursue.

to initiation of currency. The process
taxes are doomed. The farmers are
bound to get behind a new party and
the Farm Holiday Association has
shown the way.
Labor Leaving Administration.
The Wagner Labor bill and the hoped
for passage of the Guffey Coal Bill are
holding labor groups temporarily to
the New Deal. In the crisis the adj
ministration will have to side with the
industrialists just as it did under the
N. r. A. in the auto and textile strikes.
It will not be long before the workers
will break with Roosevelt and support
the new party. The Connecticut State
Federation Of Labor and the Toledo
Central Labor Union have set the pace
and others will follow.
A number of the progressive Sena-
tors and Congressman has been saying
that they would make the tax bill their
final test OF Roosevelt. Well, the ad-
ministration and the reactionaries
united to secure the passage Of the bill
that does not distribute wealth. The
little fellows are still going to carry
the tax load. These progressives are
bound to leave the President, and SEN
ator Nye's declaration there will be a
third party next year" points their flu
ture allegiance.
To give direction to these tendencies
state conferences are being held in as
many states as possible in these next
months. During September the ma
tional organizer is concentrating on
Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Utah and
New Mexico. Other leaders will cover
other states. ALI rank and file organi-
cations will be invited to send delegates
to these conferences and work out a
program Of action and cooperation in
the respective states.
National Convention in February.
The national convention will prob
ably be held in February or March at
which time the national party will be
formed, the platform adopted and the
national ticket nominated for the 1886
election.
Roosevelt has the cards in his hands.
He may be able to refrain from play
ing theme and hold back the major
break with his administration until
after the 1886 election. | doubt it.
The new party will poll at least five to
ten million votes in 1886. In a close
fight between the two old parties, the
new party may win out next year. The
break is bound to come by 1888 when
| expect to see the new party elect a
majority of the Congress and go on
certainly to win the presidency in 1910.
If not the 1886, then the 1910 presiden-
tial election will be as significant as the
1860 election which placed Lincoln in
the White House. Just as the nation
then needed a new party to free black
men from slavery, it needs and will
have a new party today to free white
men from the want and restitution of
this profit system with its program Of
scarcity and to usher in the economy
OF abundance for all.

The Iowa Farmer Labor party at its

adopted by the American Common

party in 1886. This state party polled

making rapid strides.
In Michigan, the Farmer Labor party
of that state at its conference on July
18th at Lansing took similar action,

Cause you're the type who

To do your buying through
the mail
You ask the price of this and

You want a spark plug or a

But when it's time to show
your kale
You do your shopping thru
the mail.
You even boast how cheap
you buy
The things you need; you
. think you're sly;
You save a dime, then spread
the tale
Of buying through the U.
mail
And that's your privilege; !;
We'll not squawk;
If you'll not bore us with
your talk;
Your lectures wear us thin
and pale;
Your gospel is the U. S. mail.
But maybe you'll be out of
luck
Some day without one single
buck;
And then you'll find no
cause to boast
That you bought friendship

What We Think

| think the man who dis
covers a means of curing
cancer or spinal mening tbs
will have rendered a greater
service to the human race
than the fellow who built
the Panama Canal or the
Union Pacific railroad.
I get more out of talking
to a man who thinks he
could fly to the moon than I
do in talking to the fellow
who is always trying to find
a reason to prove a thing
cant be done. That fel. wv
has a defeated tyne of mind

himself but everybody who

it isn't much.

local boys look around and
marry away from home girls
and bring them here to live.
We have lost quite a number
of mighty nice girls to out

If a man owes me and can
not pay me, that's all right,
