TO-DAY'S

As will be seen by the call published
elsewhere in this issue. there is to be {
meeting of the citizens today at the
rooms OF the Miles City club 70 discuss
the public building question. The ex
hibition of the plans prepared by Mr.
Carr and the estimate of cost of the
proposed building seems to have awak
ened an increased interest in this ques.
ton. This is well. and we hope the
meeting to-day will be largely attended
and that every citizen who has a word
to offer in the discussion. will permit
himself to be heard. As is apparent To
everybody who has given the matter any
consideration. there is no division in the
public mind as to the propriety and ne
cessity of proceeding at once in the
erection of a public building, but there
is a division as to whether the building
shall be limited to city purposes only
n by this is meant such purposes as
are strictly municipal in their character
or whether tn Scheme shall be so en-
1arged as to provide a hall for public
uses that are not within the strict limits
set forth abora. The fact that in order
to accommod;t lie those who may attend
this meeting the public are compelled
to accept the courteous tender of a pri-
vate club. is a strong argument in favor
OF the latter scheme. In fact no argu-
ment is needed to establish the fact that
this city is wholly deficient in accommo-
cations for any congregation of citizens
or visitors of any size. 1t is true that
the court house has frequently been
placed at our disposal for such purposes
but it is inconveniently situated and
poorly adapted to any purpose but the
one for which it was designed. As the
question to be discussed to-day relates
simply to the providing of a public hall.
we hope to lind those who are opposed
TO the plan of providing for one in the
city building prepared to present some
other idea that will give the people what
they want. There are men in this com
mu9ity amply able to take this small
burden upon their shoulders. and we
nope TO see them do it. \ few hundred
dollars contributed by ten or fifteen of
our moneyed men would open a short
cut to the solution OF the question. and
would place them before the people as
public spirited citizens who are willing
TO help supply an urgent need. As we

meet it with such a proposition as
have suggested. There is no popular
to unite the public hall with the
