E. Governor Aronson's Stand Is Correct Recently Gov. J. Hugo Aronson told a United States Senate subcommittee that Montana \is unalterably opposed\ to any plan that would allow Columbia basin power to be drained off into California. The governor should be congratulated on his stand and, we believe, deserves the backing of every loyal Montanan. For some months now, references have been noted of Califor- nia's desire to obtain surplus power generated in the Northwest. Allocation of surplus power to California would be but a first step towards eventual allocation of prime power and even water to the water and power -short Californians. Water and power are two of the Northwest's major resources. They should be guarded diligently lest we awake to9 late one day to find that California has its foot in the door. A small town is where everybody knows what every- body else is doing and they all buy the weekly paper to see how much the editor dares to print. A recent letter from Mrs. Wally Klockler, whose address is now Hauser Dam, Route 1, Helena, states in part: \We look forward to getting the paper each week and enjoy your editorials so very much. To quote Wally: 'He's not afraid to say what he thinks.' \We'd like to come over with the Serrettes this weekend to your prom. It would be such fun to see you all, but as usual —busy. \Bill has a science scholarship to Missoula this summer, you know. \Hello to Jack Stephens and his family. Hope you can report that Jack is still doing well. \We still enjoy living here, but do miss all our wonderful friends in Thompson Falls as well as the country. It's never green here like it is in T. F. We just wear colored glasses over here.\ We think a lot of people, in - surprise at the chamber of com- merce banquet Saturday night when they took their first glimpse at the displays arranged there by local industries. They were outstanding and certainly eye-opening. We like the idea of the chamber turning the spot- light on local industries, how- ever small they may be, and giv- ing the public a chance to see some of the things being deve- loped and produced right here in our own backyard. We only wish more local resi- dents could have seen the dis- plays. On the other hand we are extremely pleased that so many out-of-town people were at the banquet to marvel at the talent available here. Announce Birth Mr. and Mrs. Pete Arnold were notified this week of the birth of their tenth great-grand- child, Danette Lynn Pina in San Berandino, Calif. Parents of the baby girl are Mr. and Mrs. An- thony Pina, the latter being the former Sally Arnold, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Arnold, now living in California also. Sally attended school in Whitepine, Trout Creek and Thompson Falls eluding ourselves, got a pleasant while growing up.

FROM SHILOH TO HELL GATE After Appamattox, great numbers of Civil War fighters grown weary of the oppressive regimentation of military life, headed westward. Attracted by the lure of wealth and the free opportunities in a huge uncontrolled frontier area, many of these veterans of Shiloh flocked to the fabulous gold fields of Montana. They and their descendants stayed to pioneer the development of the huge forestry, agricultural and min- erals industries that now form the backbone of our economy in the west. Their philosophy of self-determination is a charac- teristic which survives today as a part of life in Montana. Its traditional for a westerner to make his own choice, to use bait or dry flies when fishing or to choose a glass of beer for refreshment when relaxing with his fellow westerners. Today in Montana the United States Brewers Foun- dation works constantly throughout the beer business to assure the sale of beer and ale under pleasant, ordwly conditions bohongs In the free west.
