He was released from active duty in

to campaign for congress. That's the
record. Not single day of employ

facts. The old trick of making name
unpopular and then pinning it on an
opponent. 1t would appear Barney,
that you have been caught in your
own web-or perhaps-you really en-
joy calling yourself names.
Jobs The Republicans Want
The same old trick of name-calling
1t has been used by the Republicans
in every campaign since Hoover But
the real reason for this lashing the
Bureaucrats to the mast is that they
believe, the man in the street, the
farmer, the businessman and labor or
ganization, with a little prodding, can
be made to feel that the Bureaucrats
are men and women who somehow are
a menace to free people. In reality
these employees are hard working
men and women-or as Senator Bark
ley so fittingly expressed it, Are
Democrats who have a job the Re-
publicans want. AS Abe Lincoln

the people some of the time, but you
can't fool all of the people all of the

Of Holland.
Al Mcleod is an American working
man, credit to Silver Bow county,
and mans man in any language.
The Montana Anti Discrimination
league would belle its name and fail in
| the purpose for which it was organ
lied if it did not take cognizance of
the campaign of half-truths being
directed against AL Mcleod, sheriff of
Silver Bow county
AS to the unfortunate circumstances
of the shooting of a young lad and
the destruction of property, we en-
phatically assert that Al Mcleod ham
died the situation in the best possible
manner. We believe that if and when
all the facts are presented in court
(if the cases ever come to triaD, all
the fair-minded people of Butte who
do not believe in the shedding of more
human blood as a means of settling
"a company-provoked labor dispute,
will applaud the cool judgment exer-
|cised by Sheriff Mcleod in the dis
charge of his duty to all the people
of Silver Bow county. A less cool head
and servile will might have used the
unfortunate shooting of young lad as
a dress-rehearsal for much more blood
letting.

A Serious Matter


protection of labor. The Big Boys are
spending millions Of dollars to get
complete control of the next congress,
and there is no doubt in my mind that
a lot of that money is being spent in
Montana. All the signs | see, certainly
point that way.
To sum it up: When the democrats
took over on March 4, 1888, they found
the banks and business generally,
either bankrupt or tottering on the
brink, they found millions of people
jobless, hungry and on the verge of
despair, they found hundreds of farm
ers whose homes had been taken from
them through foreclosures, and others
defending their homes against the
sheriff and the auetioneer; they found
financial wreckage everywhere. More
over, when farmers and stockgrowers
could find buyers for their produce,
they were getting the lowest prices
recorded in the history of this coun-
try.
Montana, in II years of republican
rule lost thousands in population, it
lost majority of its banks, and untold
millions in property values. Now,
after 10 years and months of demo-
cratic control, what do we find? Every
factory and furnace in the nation
going full blast; banks with more
money than ever before land not
bank failure in the U. S. for over two
and a half years. So million people
with fulltime employment, nobody
hungry, farmers and stockmen have a
steady market and the highest prices
ever received for their produce, and
everybody happy except those impa-
tient ones who expect the impossible
from those who are conducting the
nations affairs.
The republican party is just as
bankrupt of leadership, just as in
solvent Of principle, just as devoid of
program or policy, as it was in 1892;
yet its spielers are telling us at is
time for a change. What change?
Back to the "normalcy and corruption
