Brinson, under date of October 8th, which will be of particular interest to the voters of the state. It plainly shows how ut terly impossible it is for our congress men to do any personal campaigning in view of the demand for their serv ices in Washington: Hon. James M. Brinson, Butte, Montana. My dear Sir: I beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor of September 30th, suggesting the advisability of a series of joint debates between us during the present campaign, and in reply I will say that it appeals to me that such a proceeding might be a source of some enlightenment to the voters of Montana, but at the present time the situation is such that I could give you no encouragement on the subject. Congress is still in session, and it is my judgment there will be no adjourn ment before the 20th of the month and possibly later. That being the case it would be rather late to ar range such a series of discussions. I have no doubt your own discussion of the political issues of the day will be illuminating to the people of the state, and I regret that I cannot erjoy the privilege of joining with you. I feel, however, that so long as Congress re mains in session it is my duty to stay here and uphold the hands of the Pres ident and assist in the administration which is now so successfully guiding the country, and up to date at least has kept it from entanglement or the possibility of complications in the greatest war the world has ever seen. Aside from my larger duties which re quire a goodly portion of my time on the floor of the House, I have volun tarily assumed the obligation of as sisting several thousands of home steaders in Montana in their land mat ters. In response to personal letters sent to these people I am daily in re ceipt of from fifty to one hundred ap peals for my cooperation, and under all the circumstances I feel that I can best serve the people of my State by remaining at my post at least until Congress has adjourned, even should such a procedure militate against my political fortunes. I beg to assure you that if the peo ple should choose you to succeeu me that you will receive a cordial wel come at my hands when you come here next March, and I shall turn over to you all the records and papers and all unfinished matters, and I indulge in the belief that you will find your self very busy during the ensuing two years. With assurances of my high esteem, I am Very respectfully, JOHN M. EVANS CHURCH NOTES * ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ *5* 4» *5» ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ *î» *î» *5* CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. Sunday school at 10:00 a. m.

In an interview which the Monitor man had on Tuesday with Colonel Hull, the Great Northern R. R., right of way man, the position of that great railroad system in extending their con struction work at this time was plain ly shown. From CoL Hull's remarks it would seem that the people of Montana are indeed fortunate in having such a great transportation system as the Great Northern traverse its territory, inasmuch as it seems to hold, in con currence with the N. P. Ry-> the opti mistic idea that now is the best time to extend its lines and branches in stead of waiting tor the cessation of the European ^ar. * The idea of the Great Northern system in pushing their construction work at this time, aa plainly expressed by Col.

The European war has resulted in a complete cessation of all agricultural pursuits on a large scale, which con dition will result in an extraordinary demand for American wheat, rye, corn and other small grains, and it is in anticipation of this demand that the Great Northern railroad is push-, ing its Montana railroad work to early completion, especially the line from New Rockford to Lewistown, which will open up some of the finest agri cultural land in the country.

COMPENSATION AND THE FARMER Union Workingmen and Agricultur ists Always Stand Economically Opposed to Each Other. Some of the labor unions of Mon tana are endeavoring to hoodwink the farmers of the state into supporting the compensation bill, Initiative Meas ure No. 7, by representing the worker and the farmer as in a united attitude against the manufacturing and indus trial enterprises of the state. The farmer produces what the na tion eats and wears. He wants to get much for these things as he can. The workingman and all other classes consume what the farmer produces. They want to get these things as cheap they can. We submit that the in terests of the farmer and the working man lie along paths, which run in ex actly opposite direction. The farmer who casts a vote for the compensation bill is voting for the man who would rather see him get ten cents a bushel less for his wheat, than five cents a bushel more, and he la also voting to increase his own taxes and cost of living THE STATE OF MONTANA AD VANCEMENT ASSOCIATION.
