While little good be said for the labor relations

In the first place his dream and realization of mass

While on this subject of party politics. what is the
Montana democratic party (if still alve) doing toward
winning back some of its lost prestige, in 1913?
Having given you picture of the business-ike
manner the COP is going about it beg buy or steal
next years election we'd like muchly to enlighten
readers what the Demos have their bag tricks
for AS.
Although official word has come from their
headquarters if such there be, certain trends in the
thinking of party regulars have been noted While
the COZ nigh command seems to be of single mind
on the subject of "big business laude" no such
unanimity is apparent in their opposition
The Demos seem badly split over the recent
citation of the Truman doctrine of mperialism-sic-
protection of the interests of Standard oil if it
the life blood and the last dollar every American
Likewise, there's definite fissure between the lib
erallabor element which is nominally democratic and
the "old guard" over proposed congressional action
which would relegae members of labor unions to what
amounts to second class" citizenship
Then there is the issue of MVA, which despite
a Republican congress, is not being allowed to die
thanks to the far-sighted efforts of Senator Murray
The Demo old guard" would like nothing better than
for this proposal to die and ALL along with it's
key sponsor in the U. S. Senate
Finally, the fourth major issue over which Demo-
Gratis split is the current Communism cIaptrap
Fant-hearted and reactonary factions of the party
have gleefully jumped on the Republican bandwagon
of cleansing the nation of all "subversive" elements
this, they reason-must be done the poit-
zeal expediency-no matter if outawing the CP lays
the groundwork for outawing all partes-nclud-
ing their sacred COW.
Political infomants state that there are almost as
many Democrats hungrily cycling the u S. Senate seat
OF jim Murray, and the governorship, as there are
Republicans.
Leading candidate for the senatorshp should the
senior senator not seek reelection is Cong Mike Mans
field who in this 80th congress has doing "bang
up job Then there rumors that exAttorney Cen
eral John Bonner may go for the senate. Regardless
OF the various politicos who may be in the running
much OF the high command seems to be of mood to
do little anything to aid in reeectng truly great
senator-James E. Murray
Tn he for
MANY hopeIus outstanding among these are Judge
Vernon Hoven district Judge in the Plentywood area:
Art Lamey Great Northern attorney formerly of Havre
and now OF Billings: Attorney General Vic Bottomly

the state in AS. BY way of infor-
nation the full-time executive secre-

Immel, master strategist of the sue
cessful Ecton-for-Senator campaign,

However, there's another angle or
two to this upon which to base a
bit of speculation-a little matter
of the expense involved in operating

Buddy" Ecton's Comments

Judging by the comments of Buddy Ecton President
Trumans speech he must be somewhat concerned about the
failure his party bring about the 900 reduction
in which he promised and which promise pasteed
most of the bboards of the state during his campaign
He thinks t should be done once and states his belief that
would hold down our high cost of living He doesn't
plain just how reduction would work that way under
wonderful system The lowering of taxes might be expected

lowered increased demand might tendency
