NEED OF AN OPERA HOUSE.

NEED OF AN OPERA HOUSE.
During the past two years the citizens
of Great Falls have often agitated the
question of erecting an opera house in
keeping with the other notable building
improvements made. The growth of the
city had brought about the construction
of many fine buildings to be used for
business purposes and not a few hand
some residences, but little had been done
in the interest of the amusement loving
public. The few struggling theatrical
companies that occasionally stopped Off
to play night were confronted with
the fact that the town could only boast
of a hall in which performances might be
given. Asa result il sOon became pretty
generally known among the managers
of theatrical trOupcs that tn" promising
city of Great Falls. II Of the best known
towns in the state. could not afford II
suitable place for Il first class theatrical
company to play. They would not in
cludc this place in their circuit and
nothing save third class shows with Il
very limited amount OF scenery and poor
support would stop here. The rcputa-
ton the town acquired among the pro
fcsSion as Il show town was not the best
which was natural Indirectly the opin-
ion they held may have surrad into
other channels of thouuht and initiated
against the city's welfare in more ways
