Compare Your Watch To a steam engine. The strain and friction on the delicate Swheels and pieces of the watch is just as great by comparison as on the cogs and heavy shafts of the engine. The engine receives constant attention, daily oiling and ad Justinfg. It is only natural that a watch should receive this at tention at ]cast once every few years.

The divorce case of Evelyn Wilson against Georgoe Wilson, which has been pending in the district court for the last three years, Ihas come, aplparently, to a conclusion in a charge of perjury against the de fendant. The case, first appeared in the district court three years ago when Juidae Webster ordered a stay in judgnment and commanded the de fendant to pay $50 a month tem prary alimony. The. couple separ aIted( and the alimony was paid. All was serene. But thtree tmonths ago (G-eorge Wilson stopped paying tlhe alimony and a short time later his wife filed suit in the district court to recover the lmoney. 'hon the case was called before Judge 'MeCulloch, Wilson averred that Ihis wife had charged groceries against him at the Missoula Mitcreanttile comrpany to anl amolllunt that covered the alimony tilue for three Imonths It comet. Mrs. VWilson retorted by declaring that TVilson had come to her house on several ccansions to eat and aleep. She protested to him that she coull not buy grtceries for him out )of ilhe alimony and \Wilson tildt her to go ahead anti buy whatever she wanted at his expense. Then Wilson ldenied the fact that he had ever set foot in his wife's house in three years. lit' also swore that 'Mrs. WVilsonl had charged to his account a $45 c.oat and a $12 hat, articles that hiar'dly cane under the head of groceries. Mrs. Wilson admilitte.d the coat and hat deal, but in.sisted that her hus band had accomlpanied her to the store andl had told her to buy tile coat and charge it to him. This Wilson denied. The plaintiff then called severa! neighbors, who testified that Wilson had been seen entering his wife's house on several oc:asions, and two shopgirls from tile Missoutla Mercan tile company's store \uwho told of hearing \Vilson order.the coat and hat charged to his account. The court at once ordered that Wilson pay the alimony duo before January 2:1 or ie held in contempt of court. The judge, also, instrlcted the county attorney to file a complaint against Wilson chlarin him withll perjury. \Wilsot twas admitted to $1,500 hail. which he furnished. lie Is one of the oldest engineers iin the enlploy of the Northern Pacific.

SOCIALIST NOTES (C'ontril utld.) Socialism is a great educational movement-the greatest the world has cver known. In every civilized coun try its propaganda is develhping the intelligence of the masses. Here in Montana there are few, If any, com mnunities, however remote, where its literature is not read and commented upon. It Is not generally known that over 300,4100 pieces of literature were distributed throughout the state dur ing the last campaign. There were also many thousand books and pami phlets sold. The effect of this was noticeable at election time, but it will have more influence on the vote of the next campaign. The lyceum course, which has been accepted by at least five locals in Montana, furnishes an other admirable means of education, through the lectures, and the litera ture that is sold or donated to the pur chasers of tickets for the course. Each live local in the state has its own system of literature distribution, the Butte locals publishing a paper, the tlutte Socialist, which regularly finds its way to every household in the city and its suburbs. Butte local No. 1 is arranging for classes in pub- I lic speaking, under the able director ship of Mayor Duncan, to fit men and women to carry the message of social ism to those who literally sit in intel lectual darkness. The Finnish local of the same city sent several young men to their college at Smlthville im mediately- after election to prepare them for socialist work, and may send a couple of young women to that school within the next few months. Missoula local has adopted different methods of educating its members and the community at large. It has always distributed a large amount of litera ture; it has accepted the lyceum course; it has a committee for pro paganda work among women; it has a, socialist school for the instruction efl any who care to study socialism,'and, in addition to all this, has made the regular meetings of the local both in structive and entertaining. Every Sunday a program is prepared, and a good speaker is secured to deliver an address on some live topic. At the conclusion of the lecture the subjectl is thrown open for discussion.

President Craighead and Pro fessor Phillips are to address the local today, and a cordial invitation is ex tended to any who wish to attend. The hour is 3 p. In., and the place is Eagles' hall. J. William Lloyd has an interesting article on Woodrow Wilson in the new socialist weekly magazine, "The New Review." He says: "I like to think of Woodrow Wilson in the White House -this amateur reformer, this carpet knight of politics, this academic pro fessor of economics, who is to sink his little stone hammer of tariff revision into the forehead of giant privilege. this new Joshua who will bid the sun of business evolution stand still. "This good man with his strong Yankee face, his touch of the Puritan, his bourgeois Americanism, so sure of his country, his people; that things have only.gone a little wrong and can be easily tinkered into shape again by a well-educated, respectable, man. "What surprises await for him." And again, in conclusion: "We social ists have no reason to regret his elec tion. For years the republican party has tried, or professed to try, to regu late the trusts and hold down the cost of liying. Its failure has been before all men's eyes. The democrats have clamored for opportunity to try their remedies. And the people, always naturally conservative, were bound to give them a chance. It was the next and an inevitable step. 'or it seems so simple and self-evident to the aver age man that if the tariff were taken off beef, free beef from South Amer ica's pampas would lower the price nof beef. And it would for a moment, in fact, until the beef trust could buy up all the cattle in South America aind all the steamships that brought beef and what then?' "The democrats had to have their chance. And when they have had it, and have also failed, the issue will be more clear. Swiftly and soon now the time is coming when the lines will be drawh, with the socialists standing for human benefits first and above all things on of'e side and the anti-social ists standing withOut disguise for the rule of private profit and the servi tude of the working masses on the other.` "Speed the day!"
