I was surprised, when I reach ed Montana, where I lived seven months in 1910-11, to find that it is a rare thing to see a man with a gun on his person. The quiet, calm, re fined South is in the land of the pis-tol-toter. Give a man a well-loaded, self-acting gun and he will go out of his road to take an inoffensive dog by the ears. The trusty gun makes many a man take offence where none is intended, or suggested. Instead of disarming the Aliens when they entered the court house at Hillsville three, at least, of the thpmselves.

The board, upon recommendation of the county board of education, ordered a spacial school tax election in a certain part of Brinkleyville township to be held on May 15th. D. S. Moss was appointed registrar and Augustus Nevill and T. L.

None of the six has brought so much enlightenment to even a smill part of 400,000,000 people as Dr. Sun Yat Sen, a poor Chinese medical student, has done.
