R"r the Legi.1ature

.o: r:' .*O essive Candidate.. .. iris,

It is a matter of common knowled ge tlt the peop!c generally esteem

individual representation ,it the polls a duty, s:•ertd and inviolate; Yet

notw•ithsatanditig the strict guardianushi, of this privilege many men ofvoicious political propensitie. huae crpct Into high public office, not be-

cause the people were in any way particularly deceived as to the character

of such men, but largely because the opportunity was often-times not pres-

ent for the voter to carefully scrutinize the records, the character, and

the qualifications of the respective candidates.Under such circumstances politics then becomes a field of activity for

the specialist, a profession for political burglars, a prey for the machine

of the special interests.

The multiplicity of offices and of offici:als shields the consequent dis-

honesty in the administration of public affairs. -

If real progress is to be attained In the administration of county and

state affairs, the elected must be made more sensible to the responsibili-

ties of their trust and the voters mast more carefully scrutnizes the char-

acter. of the men who submit their can didacy for public office to the

people.

I. hava lived in Missoula count., a11 my life. . Having attended the pub-

lic school at St.. Regis, I graduated fluom the Missoula. high school in 1909.

I then took the four-year acalemic course at the State University and

also the Law school, having been the first law student to receive a diplbma

from that institution.

On the organization of the progres- sive party, believing thoroughly in the

principles laid down in its platform, I subscribed to its doctrines.

If elected to the Legishlature. I shall support:

1. A constitutional amtldmnent providling for Commiss.on government for

counties.2. The corporation lic use tax men sure.

3. A non-partisan eleot:. judiciary.

4. Legislation that w," relieve the state of affairs on the railroads that

has given rise to the disc -.•sion .m~lng the railroad men of the full crew

and car limit bills.

5. An absent voters' bill.

6. Better support for the State Unriversity.7. A county 1Vhrary Itvw, that will gIve to tlhe people living In the rural

districts the same opplortunity for fre, litrary service, as is now given to

the residents of cities.If you see fit to elect me as one of the representative n from Missoula

county, I promise you to fcl:',w no dictl:atiiin, c ce'.i my sense of duty to

the people whom I shall try to honestly represeit.Yoi'rs, very truly,

NOTES .ON f BACTERIAFRDM INSECTICIDE

MANUFATUORERE. Leech, F. R. H. S., horticulturist

end landscape architect and who isialso the ~ianufacturer of "Mustonia

Insecticide," his plant being located atStevensville, spent all week at'-theWestern Mnotana fair. Mr. Leech waspleased to learn from some of thefruit. exhibi

tors that they have had

good success in the use of his insecti-cide in treating tree diseases.

For those interested in pl.nt dis-eases ascribed to bccteria, Mr. Leechhas issued the fol:owing no'.,J on bac-teria and its forms:

Bacteria are extremely minute, unl-cellular organisms, which in 'outlinepresents three primary forms each ofgreat simplicity, namely the spheres(cocci) the straight rods (bacteria)the curved rods (spirilli).

In addition to these forms whichcomprise the vast majority of knownspecies of bacteria there are also bac-teria consisting of filamentous bodies,either simple or branched, attached orfree. In both structure and physiol-'ogy bacteria are allied to the vegetablekingdom and in it most closely to theblue, green algae,

Undef certain conditions most bac-teria undergo abnormal changes .inform, becoming elongated, branched,swollen, bulged, curved, or variouslyusually irregularly distorted, such aretermed involution forms.

Bacteria in nature and under arti-ficial conditions remain true to spe-cies, that one species can change di-rectly and suddenly to another, muchless a species of one genus into a'ppecies of another genus, is not to' becredited.

Bacteria was discovered in the year1883 by Loewenhoek, the first diseaseproducing bacteria were recognized in'anthrax in 1849 by Pollander andDavaine.

The first plant disease to be defi-nitely ascribed to bacteria was the pearblight in 1879 by Burrt. -

Entrance to the host plant is madein various ways, veiy often throughwounds, particular wounds caused lyinsects, through roots,* stomata, waterpores, through delicate tissues asblossoms, etc. Once in the tissue,I bacteria may migrate rapidly by.

.means of the vessels, intercellular

spaces or more slowly through cav-ities dissolved by the aid of enzymes.(Unorganized or soluble ferment.)
