Probably there is nothing that &s for a betterment more than the danger spots where railroads cross highways at grade. They afe the cause of many ac- cidents and almost as many deaths and in spite of great outlays which have been made With a view to the elimination of these croseings and the fatalities that are constantly occurring these there yet « remain great numbers of them throughe out the country, and many without any signal to ‘warn the highway users bar- ting the customary railroad ercssing| | danger sign. And yet it has been repeatedly shows that while the danger at grade cross- ings is real it can be reduced to a very iow degree if there is a due amount of attention paid to’ them and deferential respect ghown for the dggtructive powers of a locomotive. Those who use cross- ings should exercise proper care and ap- Preciate the need of personal protection. It is the lack of this that is too often the cause of the unfortunate accidents at, such points. That it is possible to bring about a has many crossings and because of the rood highways a large number of auto- ilists to deal with, It was on this he road that autoists disregarded signals, \cm*hed through gates and ran down and unwillingness to respect safety meas-. As the result of a long campaign of in- “tructions in bchalf of safety it is pos- sible, however, for the road to report a | reduction “in the number killed from 271 months of this year only four, with the| jured showine a decrease from 209 in first seven months of this year, | This shows good resuits from the rail- to| of| that if the users of crossings will but UNDESIRABLES. None too determined efforts can be made by the government authorities In keeping out of the country those repre- sentatives of bolshevism who are, ac- cording to report, endeavoring to reach these shores for the purpose of spreading. their doctrine throughout the country. That they will resort to all kinds of ntatives in European ports who must i laffix their signatures o their passports, 1, this country is to be expected. We have considered It pecessary in the okt umlo irables to the country. there Certainly is excellent reason to class these veople as such and use every. care to sea thta they are excluded. ,They come, or attempt to come, with l\o good purpose, the efforts of that bolshevik government to place emissaries through this country I for the purpose of rallying all possible to the radical views of that government de- erve to be opposed on every opportunity. How determined are the efforts to stir up trouble is indicated by the resort to !bribery and the plans to conceal’ their | identity from the authorities by sneaking |into the country or coming as members of steamship crews. Such games are jare daily being exercised by the immi- { gration authorities. The handling of immigrants presents many problems which are not easy to solve but when it comes to picking out |and excliding those Who represent such {a dangerous element there cannot be tos great attention devoted to this particu- {lar service. The excluslon of such peo- |ple means a protection to the country which cannot be too serlously regarded. EDITORIAL NOTES. November gives notice that it is going to create a bigger ashpile than October i did. There isn't even much consolation for the democrats to try to explain how it all happened. Not only the American Legion but the country will endorse President Wilson's action in refusing to pardon Debs.

MONTANA THE meion of Montaaa his- tory immediate- ly brings to mind the Cus- ter Massacre as one of the most | dramatic Inci- dents in Indian warfare. It cured in 1876, the Centennial year, when spe- c¢ial emphasis was being laid on the cause of peace throughout the world. The Sious In- dians had been driven into Montana' by the gold miners, and the United States government tock steps to force them beak into their reservations. General Custer with less than 300 men set out to round up the tribes which were on the warpath ,and at the Little Bighorn River, was ambushed by Sitting Bull and 3,000 warriors. Custer and all his troops were killed. Soon .after thisj massacre the Indians were defeated and many of them fled to Canada. The earlier history of the State also turns about the Indians. The first set- tiements were made as pos's for fur trading with the redmen, early in the Nineteenth Century. In 1840 Father Peter John de Smet began mission work among the Flathead Indians and the next year established a Mission of the Indians of Bitter Root Valley. Goid was discovered in Montana as early as 1852 by the halfbreed Francols Finlay near Hell Gate River. This, how- ever created little stir and it wasn't un- til five years later when John Siiv. thown discovered gold in quantities, that mining settlements sprang up in| the mountains. This reglon had been part of Nebraska Territory, which 1863 was subdivided and became a por- | tion of Idaho Territory. The mext year | it was organized as the separate Terri- | tory of Montana. But there was littic or | no government and the outlawing of the rough mining camps was only checked by vigiiance committees. Virginia City was the capital, and here in 1865 was issued the Montana Post. the first newspaper of the state. In 1874 the capital was changed to Helena and ten years later a state constitution was adodted. The state was not taken into the Union however, until 1889, Montana comes from the Spanish ad- jective meaning “mountainou Its area is 146.996 square miles, making it the third largest State of the Union. As it is thinly populated, Montana has only four glectoral votes for president. Stories That Recail Others From the Classroom. The class was studying gender and had been asked to give the feminine form for widower.” One of the youngsters offered “spinster” as the form. The oth- ers said ““widow” was the word. “But a spinster is the same as a grass widow,” insisted the first child. “No, they're not” exclaimed John. “A grass widow has had a man she didn't want and a spinster has wanted a man she didn't have.” Down on the Farm. She had been visiting on the farm for a week, and was letting the world know 4t it.

Rumania’s reasons for entering the war on the side of the allies are out lined in a communication to the Na- tional Geographic Society by John Oliver LaGorce al “Few states in history have been called to such momentous decisions as Rumania faced when. it ly into the Niagara of blood and car- nage that had rolled down over Europe for two long years. “But both hope and fear beokoned the Rumanians—the hope of a greater Rumania and the fear of a strangled homeland. “The brave people of this little king- dom—for before the war it was less than one-fifth as big as Texas—have many proverbs. and the stone remains,’ they say, re- ferring to their own persistence as a people in spite of the floods of human. ity that have swept over their terri- tory. “In the whirlpool of raeial rivalries of southeastern Rurope—where man and Goth, Hun and Slav, Magyar and Mongel, with all of their descend- ant peoples, have run over one an-{ other and have been run over in turn —fate left the Rumanians in the ma- jority in a territory of more than 80, 000 square miles. than 12,000,000 of thems over lands—more mania itself and some 5,000,000 else- sylv: “And so 12,000,000 people yearned | for a ‘restored’ Rumania—all ethno- graphic Rumania under the flag of for of in | fr tion one IN THE DAY’S NEWS where. ary, d having a population of 2,500,000, or cent, Rumania claims, are Ru- than half are politi remained neutral, they reasoned. there would be no chance for such a happy result. something out of Russia if the Cent-al Powers won with Rumania on their ide; would still be beyond their grasn. the other hand, would give them participation allies Bukowina condition of an allied vietor: “But if hope of a ‘reunited’ Rumania appealed to the Rumanians the fear strangulation, turned the seale positively to the cause of the allies. “If an unfriendly Russia should gain control of Constantinople ult - entente allies’ victory, said this| Dr. Wil horn to Ruma “Rumania’s Rumania. ment, interested follow: lunged boid- ence. ‘The water passeth powers guarantee-the mania during the war; but they were | too busy with their own and his efforts failed. “Then Rumania decided to enter an agreement with Russia. which is illuminating light of present-da free passage of ‘Russian troops over Rumanian soil, Russia undertaking to respect the political rights and to de- fend the integrity of Rumania. “One of the first acts of Rumania after hostilities began was to declare her independence of Turkey. war proceeded, Russia found herseif in sore need of help. finally brought Ruman tion, and Prince Carol was given the supreme command of the before Plevna, where he gained a great but costly victory. “When the war ended and Turkey and Ruseia entered into the treaty of San Stefano, it did recognize Rumani- an independence, was not admitted to the peace confer But it also provided that Ru- mania should get the swampy country between the Danube, where it flows north, and the Black sea hand, Russ neutrality of Ru- As the !F:lla‘l appeals n participa- lied forces although Rumania On the other a was to have Bessarabia, territory which Rumania claimed and a part of which.she had occupled. “Rumania stood firm against the Ro- or | ive It scattered more these Ru- than 7,000,000 in in. people are Rumanians; in Tran- nia, the eastern part of old Hun- a land of 21.000 square miles, gratitud in Bukowina, formerly an an crownland of 4,000 square nd 1,000,000 population, more id to be Rumanlans. 1l Rumania.
