Cowboy Preached Funeral
Sermon On Prairie i'm 1888

Morton. who had been designated to
take Letters place, called his men to-
gether after the cattle had been bedded
down for the night He had come to
Montana from Ohio, near Hudson, in
the Western Reserve, and was a COL
lege graduate. He had laid aside his
diploma for the life of a cowboy.
Boys" he said, we've got to do
something. Here's Long Tom out here,
removed from immediate contact with
civilization. His mother is dead. Aunt
Mag was noble woman. She was the
personification of pioneer womanhood. !"
He paused, choked with emotion.
"Shorty's right, fellers," spoke UP
Jersey Bill. Here we are, way out
here, an Aunt Mays gone We've got
to have a decent burial for her. She
was our friend. Let's do somethin. ,
Some of us can light out for Billings
and git a coffin. Well try to fix things
some way"
The suggestion met with immediate
favor. Billings. the nearest point at
which coffin was obtainable, was 20

and counsel was cherished by those
about him.
Crossing the river to the highway
intersection, the visitor pauseS; he
looks back toward st. Marys, hidden
now by the trees of the river. Then
he looks to the top of Ranger peak
let's call it st. Mary's. The ranger
station on the heights is dimly seen
sky; it becomes a shrine high in the
heavens, from which the spirit of
Father Ravaln looks again upon the
valley he loved-from which he reaches
forth his hand in benign blessing upon
the people who call home the land
which bears his name.

CROP STANDARDIZATION
IS GAINING HEADWAY

Improved moisture conditions
throughout the state brought about
renewed interest in Montana's crop
standardization program during 1898,
says Ralph D. Mercer, extension agron-
omist at Montana State college, in his
annual report covering the years &C
tiv1ties in the field of agronomy.
The crop Standardization program
is designed to raise the quality and
increase yields Of crops through the
use of high quality seed of adapted
varieties, Mercer said.
Recent years of drouth and poor
prices had curtailed the program but
with improved agricultural conditions
1t should again go steadily forward.

 Yesterday the annual potato-picking match be- tween the Governor of Maine and the Governor oi Idaho was played at Blackfoot We don't know how It came out but our loyalty to the two tubers of both States is equal The match is characteristic Anerl- can event It combines humor friendly rivalry ana sort of jovia publicity We like to think of Governor Bottolfsen of Idaho and Governor Barrows of Name bending their backs and wearying their overaled legs for the glory of their States and the qualification o the spectators Hoorah for Idaho! Hoorah for Aroo- stock Old Drigo's Potato Belt! Here is variety of vegetation spirits that Sir James Frazer has over looked.
 This turning of work into sport this half hilarious half serious competition this public festival with business on the side a custom of the country You can hardly picture two Lord Lieutenants so plugging for their respective counties We nominate Governor Barrows and Governor Bottolfsen for the degree Of Old Potato that honor mythically created and con- ferred by the Hon Alfred Emanuel Smith. And Idaho should know that however Northeastern Maine may look on the map Aroostook County has its bright home in the settn sun The frontier didn't die somewhere about 1890 It fingers still. It is Aroostook County Such is it's boast,
 take part in the Blackfoot show As might be expected from the head of epcurean State he declined Maryland potatoes he wrote, were fully as good as those of Maine and Idaho but he didn't feel like leav- ing home when Maryland oysters were so sweet n the mouth The excuse is valid and nobody would think of calling him a soft Campanian. He too is true American Governor. He stayed in his State, enjoyed it's oysters and blew it's horn

ganized and negligible factor on the international scene.
 If 10 years are sufficient to wipe out Blenheim, Waterloo and the World War then it is pertinent to ask: What price victory?"
 In all wars, like to think of victory usher ing in a long era of peace But Versailles not the first treaty that failed in this hope-nor will it be the last.
 Let us go back to the map and take small problem-the resurrection of Poland Assume another British victory and fufment of the British pledge to reconstitute Poland Another Corridor, which everyone knew was a source of war? Or smaller Poland, shut off from the sea- without natural de- lenses? Or still larger Poland taking in greater number of dsaffected non-P Poles?
 Or take the problem of what to do with con- quered Germany Establish a German Republic? That was tried and it had leaders able and devoted and peace loving as ever a nation had. Dismember Germany into a number of small German States for ever forbidden to unite? That either the Bal menace from Russia-or else it means another bel ligerent resurgence of German unity movement.
 The more one reflects upon the European back ground the more one is driven to two conclusions:
 | Victory in Europe does not necessarily even probably a permanent setup of Powers with static boundaries.
 9 Victory in Europe-even victory for men of good will-does not peace in Europe.
 Let Americans think of the next peace before jumping to nasty conclusion in favor of American participation in this war.

The Treaty-Breaker in Our Midst
Philadelphia Record)

Another treaty has been torn up.
 Not by any of the dctators this time. Not even in Europe The treaty tearing took place in Yakima Wash where Federal Judge Webster overrode the provision of the Walla Wala Treaty of 1855 which gave three Indian tribes unlimited rights to go fishing
 This Walla Walla Treaty declared the Yakima, Umatilla and Warm Springs tribes could fish without restriction "as long as grass grows and water flows in the land of the setting sun' But when Indians sought to fish recently, they were ordered to take out $5 licenses.
 The theory on which the Judge ripped up the treaty was that the sovereign power of the State could not be restricted and that the treaty constituted such restriction Don't all treates?) The Judge didn't even attempt to that Hoovers prediction of grass growing in the streets had not been fulfilled or that there had been a drought (thus invalidatng the water flow provso) He just tore up the treaty
 So the guaranteed fishing rights of the Yakima, Umatila and Warm Springs tribes worth just about as much as the Kaiser's pledge to Belgium the Allies pledge to the Czechs, Hiters pledges to everybody and of course the debts
 It's tough. but if the Indians want any more scraps of paper" they'll pay five bucks for them They could of course appeal to the League of Nations But we doubt that they will.

HOW WOULD YOU DO IT?

There is grim little game that thoughtful Amer- cans can play these days. Sit down with map of Europe good geography giving linguistic and cul- tura divisions and a couple of books of history. Imagine yourself at the next peace conference Then try to construct the Europe of justice and enduring peace
 It's quite job If you fail. you can be consoled by the thought that experts have preceded you in failure Nor were all the experts power politicians of the Metternich type Men of immense good will as well as brains have tried to solve the problem of European peace-and the result still adds up to 1889
 To realize just how hard the job is and how little it has do with victory review the history of Great Britain in European affairs. Since Britain became a world Power with the destruction of the Spanish Armada in 1888 she has engaged in about 30 foreign wars nearly all them in Europe relating to Euro pean conflicts
 Since 1888, there have been only two periods of British peace that lasted more than 20 years
 Broadly speaking, Britain has all those wars There were temporary setbacks such as the naval supremacy of the Dutch and the Napoeonc sue cesses but in the long Britain humbled the Span- ish the French the Dutch and all other Powers and combinations of Powers
 This marvellous record of victory is further en- hanced by the fact that Britain was not fighting of conquest in Europe through this long 350- year period Britain has had no territorial claims aspirations in Europe since the end of the feudal period and the beginning of the national period.
 That remuneration should have made Brtain's task easier It had, the Continent conquered people like the Irish, ready to rise against foreign tyranny Since its emergence as the dominant sea Power Britans political task in Europe has been the relatively simple of preventing any Power on the Continent from becoming too strong
 On that issue it fought Philip of Spain, Louis XIV of France. Napoleon and the Kaiser, to name just a few The important fact to remember is that in every case Britain won and Britain remade the map each time in the hope of keeping the peace of Europe.
 It would be going too far to say that Britain ever wanted a really united Continent Tn a United States of Europe Britain would be in the position as the Confederacy in our South But within the limits of British national interests has been for peace on the Continent.
 Yet in spite of $50 years of British victories the Pax Britannica has not come. Indeed we now find this unbeaten nation struggling for it's life again with an enemy which 10 years ago was disarmed, disor-

 but do not compel
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 8

Although this is a mixed day in planetary influences benefic aspects seem to dominate. The morning is especially fortunate for persons in authority in church organizations Bishops are well directed and will soon carry extraordinary responsi- bilities. Closer relations between church and state will be sought, but religious progress will be made chiefly through organizations that include many faiths.
 Heart and Home: Under this planetary government the head of the house may be difficult to in- fluence, for he may be exceedingly critical of household expenses and finding. This is a day for oeacemakers to guide the domestic group, for the stars encourage in- srospection and mental instability A positive and optimistic state of mind should be cultivated
 Business Affairs: In the West and he East this should be a week of activity. Business will be stimulated oy the building of airplanes and by other preparedness activities. The autumn trade should bring fair profits to merchants and manufac- urers. Heavy clothing will be in ,reat demand and furS should be ex- eedingly profitable.
 National Issues: There is a prom sing sign for certain written over .ures transmitted to foreign nations. Public opinion will be molded by rank statements of foreign policies. There will be criticism of govern nent officials but the stars presage success in trade negotiations. Com nerce should improve, owing to Eu- 'opean demands for raw materials.
 International Affairs: Good news egarding our relations with Great Britain may be received, but there s sign indicating that many will misunderstood important moves on he worlds chess board. Many dis inguished foreign visitors will be ntertained in Washington before he new year. Secret agreements with foreign powers will be fortu- nate.
 Persons whose birthday it is have he augury of a year of improve nent in their fortunes. Next month hould be most fortunate for both nen and women, particularly those yho are interested in art music and literature.
 Children born on this day will be ;elf-reliant, lofty in their aims and lble to enjoy life, although many nay be restless and cratic. These objects of Libra are usually sincere md trustworthy.
