For County Clerk and Recorder. • GERALD CARNEY IS A NORTHERN MADISON COUNTY BOY, anct his candidacy should appeal to voters of all sections who believd that the offices should be distributed according to No. 6 fitness and geographical lines. THIS FINE YOUNG MAN IS TWENTY-FOUR years of age, is the only grandson of Madison county parents (his mother, whose maiden name was Nettie Foster, being born in Alder gulch in 1864) now a candidate for office, and his education was obtained in the Madison county and Silver Bow county Orpls. ELIJAH ADAMS Democratic Candidate for Sheriff of Madtson County. AUTO OWNERS ORGANIZE. An automobile association compos- ed of owners of automobiles in Mad- ison and Beaverhead counties has been organized in Dillon and tempor ary officers elected. The following ar- ticle taken from The Dillon Tribune explains the object of the new organi- zation: \Despite unfavorable weather • and; somewhat inaccessible roads, the, meeting of 'auto owners called for , Wednesday night at the Beaverhead club for the purpose - of affecting the organization of an automobile club in Beaverhead and Madison counties, was fairly well attended, and what lacked in numbers w s iiade up in h asrn and progr ssive harmony. \H. B. Hust ident E. P,. Ma of the Isifotnana sociation, who we. ago, was in attend temporabrganizet ! meeting '03n the bene of local organization. Mr. Adams has served one term as Sheriff and has without doubt Triode one of the best sheriffs ever elected to that office in this county. He has proven to be fully capable - of managing all business matters to the test interests of the county and his record entitles him id second term.' For County Treasurer. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY of Madison county presents The name of Rodney R. Herndon as candidate for county treas- urer. He is a young ,man of cleanly life and undoubted ability. Temperate in his habits, courteous and obliging, well equipped for the place, he is of the stuff from which good public officials are made. NO MISTAKE CAN OCCUR if he is triumphantly elected to that responsible position on Tuesday next. For County Attorney. AS HAS BEEN STATED HERETOFORE in The Madison- ian, this county has been fortunate in selecting young men for county attorney. Among them there is now in public life a gov- .ernor, a state senator, a district judge, and an ex -district judge. All have made good. HOWARD P. BECK ETT WILL SERVE Ilk PEOPLE equal- ly as well in the county attorney's office. He is active, able nd conscientious. He should be elected. Elijah Adams and Harden Vinson. • ELIJAH ADAMS FOR SHERIFF has already demonstrated his integrity and ability. He has made good; he is unbeatable •so long as faithfulness and efficiency count with Madison coun- ty voters. HARDEN C. VINSON FOR ASSESSOR has no opposition at the polls. He is a living demonstration of the class of men Madison county democracy selects to go before the people as candidates for public office. oy Murray, secre- st, treasurer.

Some 15 names have already been selected for this com- mittee throughout the two counties. \A subscription list forr`rnember- ship was prepared and 20 signers were secured during the meeting.

The organization will doubtless wive great itnnetue to general road improvement throughout both coun- ties and will afford many advantages no well as 00a:tures to the autoists of this part of the state, not to mention , anvenienees to tourists passing through here.\ Roy Murray. aerreterv of the SW club, was in Virginia City Tuesday and stated that when the nermanent orrrani7etion is effneted that in ell probability a Virginia City men will as DreR;flent Peld thstin the se- leetion of the other officers men who have occasion to.be out on men who have occasion to be out on the roads a gpod deal of the time will be elected and that officers of the club will be evenly divided be- tween the two counties.

Congressman Evans and Stout voted Walsh.

Sena- tor Walsh and Tom Stout are going to be here next week. The Record should demand that they tell the vot- ing public what they meant by re- ducing the price of fresh laid Mon- tana farm eggs to a cent each dur- ing the lone', bard winter, and what they did with the egos AO reducod in mice. It may be that The Record and Messrs. Maddox and McCormick bought them all up, and hay,e been sucking those cheap eggs ever since. At any 'rate no one else eiter saw them: and the farmers who sell ems and the consumers of eggs in this .state are not such suckers as to suck down that sort of aft_egg argument, anyway. Perhaps it was fish duck HE IS A GRADUATE OF THE FAMOUS BUTTE high school, and his fitness for the position of county clerk and recorder is further assured by the fact that he is also a graduate of the Butte Business college. Since leaving school he has been ac- .tively engaged in building up and conducting the ranch of his father, Mike Carney, at Waterloo. • EXPENSES in the county clerk's office have increased enormously the past two years. and the young democratic 'candidate stands pledged—if elected—to give better service at less cost than heretofore. Payne, Peel and Hedrick ..oziabieo WALTER'W. PAYNE IS OF SUCH 'ABILITY that he was seriously considered as fit to be surveyor general of this state. 'It is seldom that a county has material of this class as county surveyor, and this all -the -time gentlemen will receive a .big majority. RICHARD PEEL FOR _PUBLIC ADMINISTRATOR is too well known to Madison comity people to need introduction. Hundreds of voters are porud to claim him as their friend. EMIL HEDRICH FOR COUNTY CORONER is likewise able and conscientious, and worthy of support. Give these men your votes next Tuesday... President Wilson Gives Advise to.Voters. (Signed). Mr. Thomas Arthur, Helena, Montana The White House, Washington My Dear Mr. Arthur: It is a real pleasure to speak for those who have stood by the cause of the people and manifested in a very practical way their support of just, progressive legislation. Certainly Mr. Stout and Mr. Evans are 'nen . ,•;f this :ype. Their ql::+14y1ras ben tested by their service. It would seem to me little more than justice to them that their constituents should return them to the house, where with lengthened service they will be able to give the country the benefit of their quality more and more effective- ly from month to month. Sincerely yours. . t WOODROW WILSON. October 22, 1914. IS eggs that were selling all last win- ter for 12 cents a dozen.' The tale - has a very fishy odor. If that is the best argument the republicans have for the election of their con- gressional ticket, they have our pity. And we really believe it is about as sound as any we have seen . advanced. FOREST NOTES. Wireless telegraphy is being used In Canada in reporting' on forest fires. The best excelsior is made from basswood or linden. Aspen and cot- tonwood however, supply nearly half of the total amount manufactured. The king of England has given permission to have a part of the royal estate placed at the disposal of the school of forestry at Cam- bridge University for purposes of experiment and demonstration. . William Penn, in his Charter of Rights, provided that for every five acres of forest cleared one acre should be left in woods. Foresters today maintain that on an average one -fifth of every farm should be in timber. Recent . experiments indicate that round timbers of all the pines of En- gelman spruce, Douglas fir, tamarack and western larch, can be readily treated with preservatives, but that the firs, hemlocks, redwood and Sit- ka spruce, in the round, do not take treatment easily. This information should be of value to persons who contemplate preservative treatment of round posts, 'boles or mine props. SCA1,ERS EX ‘MINATION. The civil service commission is ar- ranging to give an examination the latter part of November for scalers to be employed on the national for- ests in Montana and Idaho. District One of .the forest Service, with head- quarters at Missoula, Montana, which includes the national forests in these states, last year made 2,066 sales of timber. The total amount of timber cut in these sales was 217,- 648,000 board - feet, or its equivalent This amount is approximately 23.5 i g per Cent more than the amount cut in the previous year. The cut on the national forests already represents a large percentage of all of the tim- ber cut in these two states, and is in- creasing to a larger percentage of the total. A large number of experien- led men are needed to scale this tim- ber. The scalers must necessarily be good woodsmen and have had considerable experience in scaling t timber. The entrance salary is from $900 to $1,200 per annum, with em- ployment through the busy season of the year only. The examination will be given at the following places on the dates mentioned.: Priest River, Idaho, November 16 and 17; Coer d' Alene, Idaho. Novem- ber 18 and 19; St. Merles, Idaho, No- vember 20 ad 21; Missoula, Montana, t , November 23 and 24; Libby, Montana, November 27 and 28. The civil - service commission at i Washington, D. C., will, upon appli- cation, send more complete Informa- tion to those interested. Two Big Democratic Meetings Colonel Q. -B. Nolan of Helena, ow ot Montana's.most eloquent orators and one of the best informed men on Montaua's political affairs, will address the people of Twin Bridges on Friday, Oct. 30, at 8 p. m. and the people (A Alder on Saturday evening. Oct. 31, at 8 p. m. A big attendance is desired.
