STOCKAIEN SAY LAND
IN FORESTS is E d

The livestock industry of
Montana, especially the sheep
RAISING business, depends a
great zeal on grazing lands IN
natlonal forests, according to a
letter to Governor Roy E. Ayers
from E. A. Phillips, secretary
OF the Montana StockgroWers
association.
The letter was written after
the Central Montana Conserva-
ton club distributed a pamph-
let among sportsmen, urging
them to eat no more mutton
until sheep are kept from ma
tional forests" A resolution urg-
ing that sheep be kept from
national forests was adopted bv
the 1zaak Walton league of
Great Falls and sent to WASH
ingtOn.
Mr.. Phillips pointed out that
SO per cent of national forest
land in Montana is set aside
for the exclusive use of big
game-15 per cent is used BY
big game and livestock. Thirty
two per cent is all that is al
lotted for domestic livestock,
and big game shares half of
this amount, he said. Without
use Of the grazing lands on for
eSts, he said, many ranches
would be abandoned and re-
moved from tax rolls.

PROTEST CURTAILNIENT
OF SPRING WHEAT BY AAA

A determined protest is be-
ing made to the Department of
Agriculture in Washington. by
MontananS, Inc, the state
chamber of commerce. in con-
junction with leading civic and
farm organizations of Minneso-
ia, North and South Dakota, on
behalf of the farmers of those
states. Recently the AAA quotas
were announced and the acre
age used for the growing OF
hard spring wheat was cur
tailed, although there is no sur
plus of hard spring wheat. In
M o mt a n a, this curtailment
would remove about one million
acres from production.
R. S. Mutt, Sidney, represent
ing Montanans, Inc. at a meet
ing held in Fargo, N. OAK, On
June 6, stated, The conference
went on record as being opposed
to the proposed reduction IN
wheat lands where it affected
the four northern hard-wheat
states. A protest is being made
to the Department Of Agricul-
ture, with a petition for the
resembling of the curtailment as
far as it concerns the hard
spring wheat regions.
"Since 1888, the American
millers have been forced to pur-
chase from foreign growers
more than 200 million bushels
of high protein wheat because
of the lack in the United States.
Last year, 1861, more than
four times the total amount
grown in Montana was import
ed. According to the AAA re-
port, the reason for the reduc-
ton is due to the surplus of
A me rican wheat. Statistics
prove that there is no surplus
of hard spring wheat and that
the only surplus is found in the
soft wheat belts. Reliable auth
critics state that there can new
er be a surplus of hard spring
.Aheat, as it can be grown in
the United States only in tie
four northern states.
The curtailment of the acre
age used for hard spring wheat
production is, therefore, mere
ly taking money from the farm
ers of that region and placing

BUILDING BEGINS TO MOVE
(From The Wall Street JournaD

The gain in residential building in
July, which has lifted the total value
of contracts let above the corresponding
month a year ago, is evidently part of
a major uptrend. How long it will last
it is impossible to say; but those who
remember the series on construction
written by Arundel Cotter in The Wall
Street Journal last fall and winter
realize that there is ample reason why
it could continue, even granted today's
general economic conditions, we'll into
next winter
Residential building has yet to reach
proportions at which it compares at all
favorably with the expectancy of the
normal demand, which is usually esti-
mated at 100000 to 100000 homes a
year, without counting requirements.
Nor has it begun to bite into deficiency
of some 100000 which has already ac-
cumulated The potential is there, and
remains untitled
Less satisfactory, of course, is the
showing of non-residential building,
which even today accounts for the bulk
OF the money spent on construction. But
it should be noted that July was the
high point of last year, even in this de-
partment. Accordingly, better compar-
ative showing is likely to be made from
now on. The trouble is that any compar-
ative showing, although it may bring
1888 much nearer to 1887 than seemed
possible two or three months ago, does
not put more dollars and cents into the
pockets of builders, supplies or owners
But as an example of trend in a phase
our economy which probably more than
any other has been responsible for the
nations failure to make steady progress
toward full employment, it is of the first
Importance.
There seems to be an excellent chance,
then, that residential building will pass
the total for 1897 by the end of this
year. If SO, the winter of 1889 will
bring level of building more in line
with industrial activity as whole than
has characterized the recovery to date

Sometimes, surveying this confus-
ed world of ours, it is little hard
to figure out just who is kidding
whom. The line that separates the
charlatan from the statesman gets
awfully thin, at times.
A few days ago the New York
Times went to the trouble to print
a verbatim stenographic report of
a speech delivered by Father Divine
to flock of the faithful In one of
his Heavens" near New York City.
To a nonmember of the cult, it
makes weird but interesting reading.
A sample paragraph goes like
this:
Permit me to be transmittable,
premit me to be reincarnatable, per-
init me to be reproducible. When
this is done you will see God in all
mankind This is what 1t is
all about, beloved ones, and when
you build upon this foundation you
will be lifted above the underprivi-
legged and will ascend the height OF
perfection and 60 above the over
privileged and put them in their
Places. That is what I am doing. 1
am putting the over privileged in
their places"
Read through couple OF column
like that, trying earnestly to figure
out what it means, and you get a
tantalizing feeling that you have
heard something very like it before.
It's hard to place, but you think and
think-and then at last, you have
it: it sounds like speech by one
of the more stringent European die
tatorS!
The technique is much the same;
the emotional appeal is the same
and the intellectual content OF the
message is the same.
That, probably, is really an in
suit to Father Divine. He breaches
peace, and by and large his career
probably ras made for less unrest
than more. But the broad lines ol
the appeals are much the same.
For the dictator has the same
technique of aiming his appeal al
the emotions rather than at the
reason. He knows, too, the trick Of

Let us hope her people have the

The KELLOGG PACT
TEN YEARS AFTER

This week the world, or that part of
it at war or contemplating war, OBJ
serves the tenth anniversary of the Kel-
log-Brian treaty, designed to outlaw war.
Sixty three nations signed the treaty
agreeing never to wage war on one an
other. Many of them have broken the
pact already, and others have given
strong indication that they would break
it without hesitation should it seem de-
sirable to do so.
Hailed when it was signed as one of
the greatest documents of history, the
Kellog pact has proved one thing-that
a piece of paper will never assure peace
to the world. Friendship of nations, not
treaties between them, will do that.
