This opinion is unquestionably in conformity with the law, for the state purchasing agent is given "exclusive power, subject to the consent and ap proval of the governor," to attend to the purchasing for the state "unless otherwise provided by law." As the law which created the fish "and game fund specifically provides that the state fish and game commission shall expend that fund for any and all purposes, it is plainly an exception to the law giving general authority to the state purchasing agent.

WOLF POINT, Oct. 14. A transient, who gives the name of Lee Jones, is in the county Jail, held to the district court on a charge of robbery with bond! placed at $2,000. Lee was arrested at Scobey on complaint of his alleged victim, John Knapp, another transient. Knapp claims that on Oct.

1 at Balnvllle, Jones accompanied by other men, held him up and relieved him of about $30 in cash. A few days afterward, Knapp recognized Jones at Scobey and complained to the authorities. Sheriff Anderson went to Scobey and brought Jones here. At the hearing held before Justice Gordon. Jones denied that he had robbed Knapp, but admitted being present when Knapp lost his money.

He claimed that another man in trie party made a wager with Knapp bearing on Knapp'a ability to open his own pocket knife. The story sounded flimsy to the court and the defendant was bound over.

Our attention has been called to the mistake and we are glad to correct it. In section 12 of chapter 14? of the Montana session laws of 1927, under the caption of "Who Entitled to Vote" at school bond elections, it says: In all school district bond "elections hereafter held only qualified registered electors residing within the district who are taxpayers upon property therein and whose names appear upon the last completed assessment roll for state, county and.

school district taxes, shall have the right to vote. Upon the adoption of the resolution calling for the election, the clerk of the school district shall notify the county clerk of the date on which the election la to be held, and qualified persons shaU be allowed to register for such election up till noon of the fifteenth (15th) day prior to the date thereof. At that time the registration books shall be closed for such election, but it shall not be necessary to give any notice of such, closing of the registration books. From the above it will be seen that "taxpayers upon property" within the district are entitled to vote. And section 544 of chapter 45 of the revised codes, 1921, defines who are taxpayers as follows: The payment of a tax upon property by any person assessed therefor on a county or city assessment roll next preceding the election at which a question is to be submitted to the vote of the taxpayers of the state, or to the vote of the taxpayers of such county or city, any subdivision thereof, constitutes such person a taxpayer at such election.

Thus it is plain that both real and personal prop-nrfv avnnvprs who are registered are entitled to up to the governor to arbitrate the difference. But what if the governor doesn't know which of the two men are right? Naturally, he will be inclined to follow the judgment of his purchasing agent, for it is to be assumed that when he appointed him, he did so because he had confidence in his ability to Rudolph.

No doubt the government Is administering the national forests and the national domain, so far as the law permits, to the best inerests of the state in which that tremendous domain is located.

There is much, however, that congress could and should do In behalf of western states where immense areas are withheld from settlement or development. Throughout the difficult and tangled skein of economic development in these states, the heavy burden imposed by the vast tracts, undeveloped, unprofitable and untaxable, are apparent. Now It develops that even the program of highway construction in Montana, of vital concern in the economic development of the state, is hindered and hampered by the great forests and the lack of federal funds for highway construction within their confines. It remained for the Montana highway commission at the recent nation-wide conference in Denver to point out the difficulty of extending: the arterial highways across the state, with bo little construction work being' done by the government in the forests. Montana's two main trunk highways.

In which the government Is keenly Interested, traverse the forests for many miles. These highways cannot be completed -until the g-overnment has built through the forests with suitable roads. Increase of 100 per cent in the appropriations for highway construction through the forests Is recommended by the highway commission to the government. The situation in other public land states of the west Is similar to that in Montana. In this state 18,000,000 acres of the richest, most valuable land Is withheld from settlement or development In the national forests.

That is more than 12'A, per cent of the entire area of Montana. It means that an average of one acre out of every eight in the entire state is held in reserves by the national government. This land cannot be put to use; it plays no part in the general development. Still, it is the duty of Montana, through its counties, to police this gigantic area, to protect those who enter the forest confines. And yet, neither the counties nor the state derive one penny of taxes from these lands.

The state, to be sure, actually does receive some Income from the government as its "share" of the earnings of these forest lands. But it is pitifully small. Last year this amount which came into the public treasuries jn Montana amounted to less than $50,000. The average tax on privately owned Montana timber land Is 21 cents per acre. Thus if the federal government were paying taxes on ite 18,000,000 acres timber reserves in Montana, it would contribute annually $3,780,000 to the support of the state, county and school expenses here.

Were Montana and its governmental subdivisions to receive that sum each year from the federal government, there would be no need to heap a constantly heavier burden of taxation upon the modest aggregate of wealth already created in this state. It Is not at all surprising that there has arisen throughout the public land states of the west an Insistent demand that the federal government turn over the forest reserves to the respective states in which they are located.

A real value we must expend the effort to obtain it.

For instance, there is apple blossom time followed by June and roses. But had the apple tree not been cared for and nurtured all these years it could not be productive of blossoms and then fruit. If some one had not planted the rose the June garden would be a different thing. So it is in the autumn we plant now for the spring harvest. 1 Perhaps the most ancient sentiment associated with flowers is woven specifically around the flora we plant at this season.

In Solomon's exalted song, "I am the rose of Sharon, the lily of the valley," his rose was probably the narcissus. In fact, the rose as we know it today belongs to comparatively recent centuries. But the narcissus and the hyacinth as well as the tulip were close to the heart of the earliest civilization. In Greek mythology, Narcissus, a beautiful youth, was transformed into the charming flower which to this day bears his name. Hyacinthus, also a beautiful youth, was accidentally slain by Apollo and sprang up as the hyacinth.

The tulip likewise blossomed in the cradle of civilization. Knowing these things, our gardens can hold an interest for us beyond the mere thought of the loveliness which the new season will create. It is not to be wondered that the ancients attributed to the flowers qualities that were the special gift of Men's Fancy Pajamaa Special Toilet Goods Sale Specials on Standard Drugs Reductions on Popular San-Tox Remedies Extra Values in Rubber Goods 25th Anniversary Fancy Printed Broadcloth Our Exclusive Patterns Shirts that are distinctive in style and exceptional in value.

The policy of selling forest products from these national reserves, which have no burden of taxation. In competition with privately owned timber also has developed a distinct handicap to the lumbering industry. The private owner who year after year pays a tax on his timber finds it impossible to meet the competition of government timber, which has paid no taxes.

That aspect of the matter is mighty serious since "crop" of timber requires least 150 years to grow.
