Inter Mountain: A Butte real estate
dealer some time ago made six months
advertising contract with the Helena
Independent for half page of the val
liable space of that journal for the pur-
pose of whooping up Bozeman. Subse
quently he desired to annul the con-
tract, but the newspaper manager
wouldn't let him, insisting that the con
tract must be carried out. The result
has been very unfortunate for the In
dependent because the real estate man
has decided to occupy the space for the
purpose of roasting Helena as we'll as
whooping up Bozeman. Sundays issue
OF the Helena paper contained an ad-
vertisement something like this: "Go
to Bozeman for your town lots. Don't
waste your money on played out old
placer camp like Helena where the wa
ter is SO bad and the streets so dirty
and the air so impure that over 500 men
are constantly employed in digging
graves and have to take their pay in
city warrants which are not worth five
cents on the dollar. Invest your money
in Bozeman the beautiful, and progress
i've, and not in rickety old town, built
on sand, and whose richest man is over
half million dollars in soak. Go to
town where railroad trains stop and not
to place like Helena whose freight and
passenger business is all handled by
wheel barrow between the depot and
Main street. Helena is as dead as MIN
evan and as wicked as Sodom and Go
morrah. Ministers of the gospel refuse
to stay there, and The people do nothing
but hold Office and drink whiskey. II
you want to get rich invest in Bozenan,
the gem of the 'Gallatin."
The Butte real estate man proposes to
change the above advertisement every
week and before the six months will
have expired he expects that the Inde-
pendent will be ready to terminate the
contract.
