Live Men.
As was to have been expected, in fact as
was prophesied by the knowing ones, the
erection Of the McDermott House was but
the ~forerunner Of greater enterprises in the
noted line in this city. Butte needs and
must have more hotel accommodations.
Those now here are properly conducted
and receive liberal patronage, but the city
is large enough and entertains travellers
enough to justify the erection OF a cara
vansary that in style, construction and
dimensions will be worthy OF the greatest
mining camp or earth. The fact has finally
dawned with irresistible force upon the
minds and pockets of q number Of Mon.
tana capitalists, not all Of Buttey and
they see in the speedy erection OF such an
edifice a good return for q safe investment.
For the purpose Of bringing the project to
a focus, interviews have been held and q
correspondence carried on for some time
past, and Friday a quiet meeting OF
those interested was held in the parfors of
q Butte gentleman. who has done much
toward making up the scheme. While the

reached. It is understood that q company
