PRAISES CONGRESSMEN (Continued from page One.) speedily enacted which reatered,con- fldtuice, upheld our institutions, sap-' ailed ample circulating medium and afforded avenues of Commerce which kept bashaesa going,la this country on a sound basis and a normal plane and vialoubtedly averted a calamitous p4ric. As Senator Nelson of' Minne- e - au said in the s.:;.are, 'White other nations mobilize armie4, we mobilize bank reserves' and thur keep buai- nese going. \The war has caused a great de- crease in our imports and thus les- sened our tariff revenues. This will be offset by a new revenue law, which will not raise additional taxes, but simply the same amount in part from other sources. While more will be raised from new sources, less will be raised from other sources and it will be the same in the end. Th• people will be taxed no more than before. • These are a few of the achieve- ments of the present administration, in which the president has been the guiding hand, but Woodrow Wilson's greatest achievement has been 'that, in spite of pressure, clack and clam- or, he has kept this country at peace with the world, avoided a costly war with Mexico and, as a result, today we are enjoying peace and tranquil- ity and pursuing our worded ways while nearly all of Europe is devast- ated by war so gigantic, cruel and -bloody as) be shocking to every - Calif orola WINES Port, per gallon - $2.00 Sherry, per gallon - $2.00 Claret Wines Bottled at the Winery Quarts - - 50c CEDAR BROOK WHISKEY Bottled In Bond Full Carts - $2.00 Short Quarts - $1.75 Full Pints $1.00 Full' Half Pints - $ .50 The best Cafe in Madison county in connection fine fur- nished rooms at reasonable Rik WREN COMPANY sense of humanity, leaving in its trail widows and orphans, dissipating the substance of the people, bearing down those who are staggering un- ier it with a frightful burden too appalling to be comprehended ! This will ever be Woodrow Wilson's t- est monument. It makes him today one at Abe greatest men of the World. He will go down in history,' not as a bloody canqueror with wholesale de- vastation and frightful slaughtar charged to him, but as a man of peace, patriot and statesman who la,s exemplified that peace hath her victories no less than war. \The people of the United States have undertaken to cross a stream, from the shore of special, privilege to he shore of equal rights. They are only about half way across. Will they turn around and go back when half way across the stream? Less than half of President Wilson's term ha s expired. The main policies of his administration have only recently been enacted into law. They have not yet had time for a trial. Will he people see them through and give them a trial or . will .they go back to that wIlich they recently renounced? Only the first battle has been won. No war for human rights, either mil- itary or political, was ever won with one battle. Are the people dissatis- fied? Do they want to go back? If so, to what do they what to go back? To Aldrichism, Payneam, Cannoniarn, special privilege, protected interests, intrenched plutocracy, the rule of the few? Going back means going back to these things, for either the demo- cratic or republican' party will tri- umph in this election. \I do not believe they will go back to the old order. I do not believe they will restore the old Aldrich - Payne 'prohibitive tariff wall. I do not believe they will repeal the in- come tax law, I do not believe they will go back to the old national banking law. \If the people of Montana do not want to go back to those things, it is very essential that they so express themselves by re-electing our able and industrieus representatives, Con- gressmen Stout and Evans, who have done excellent work for their consti- tuents., Representative Evans is a member of the important house com- mittee on Indian AtTpirs, a coatmittee of *remount importance - to Mon-\ tana. He has given his duties close attention and rendered valuable serv- ice to the people of Montana. Rep- reseritative Stout as a member of the important house committees on public lands and irrigation and rec. lamation has been assiduous in at- tention to MS ditties and has rend- ered able seiarice` to his constituents through theta avenues. Both have been attentiv, faithful, diligent, in- dustrious. Both stand well in the house. Everybody knows -that a rep- resentative, ,of whatever political faith', can do better service during his second term than during his first. It takes one term to get into the har- ness.- Representatives Evans and Stout are now thoroughly in the har- ness and -re equipped to do splendid work for their constituents. The ad- ministration - is_ democratic; the next ' • a congress will be democratic in both branches. It would be folly to defeat two faithful, industrious representa- tives, who have gotten into the col- lar hi good shape and who are in ac. cord With the party in power, and to put: in their places others who are - un- tried, new, unacquainted and not in accord with the administration. By , re-electing R'épresentatives Evans and Stout, the 'people of Montana would not only continue in office two faithful servants, but, at the same tiMig'would register their approval of the splendid policies of President Wilson and his administration. \From what I hear, the democratic state administration of Montana has rendered to the people Of the state excellent service and Goveenor Stew. art and all of the other democratic state officials have characterized the administration of their trusts with faithfulness, integrity, efficiency .and sound judgment. I am sure the state administration, which the democratic party has given the people of Merr,4. tana, is well worthy of a vote of con- fidence and well justifies the election by good majorities of all of the dem. ocratic state candidates and a demo- cratic legituature. \There is no reason why Montana should change its political allegiance this fall. Our 'national and state ad- ministrations have earned and desrve approval at the hands of the people. Most cheering reports of the success of democratic principles and candi- dates Come from all sections of the country. The people of the United States this fall will ratify in a row. ing Manner their selection of Presi- CoMpare the Time.
