Bozeman. May 25.-The citizens Of
Bozeman. or at least bou 80 repre-
sentative leading business and profess
sional men, met in the council cham
bers at the city hall on Monday even
ing for the purpose of discussing the
~advisability Of advertising the Gala
tin valley as a health resort. Mayor
Boeert was selected as the chairman
of the meeting and County Clerk Nc
Naughton as secretary. Speeches were
made by Mr.. wyiie. President Reed.
Ed Ellis. Mr.. Finlay. Mr.. Stanton and
others. A committee was appointed to
20 ahead and get out a circular and
solicit funds for the purpose of ar
rying out the project. Messrs. Ed Ell
lis, Thomas II. Ray. DIR. Reid, Mayor
Bogert. DIR. Waters. F. Fielding and b.
r. Stanton being appointed as such
committee.
The object of the scheme Is to get
tourists who go through the Yellow
ton park to stay in the Northwest
n take in the grand cener there is
Montana. instead of going to Colorado.
Utah and other points. and by means
of these tourists who do come and en-
Joy the beauties of the North. To in
duce others who go to Florida and the
South to turn their thoughts in the
direction of Montana. 1t was proposed
to extend the road now being built by
the county up the West Gallatin can
yon to the Madison county park road
from somewhere in the n~eighborhood
Of Taylor's Fork. The IA road Is
being built so as to connect with the
park line. but there Is no extension of
the road through the park. so the idea
Of running a branch road was deemed
the most feasible. The committee on
investigation appointed a committe
consisting of Messrs. Vreeland. Gott-
schalck and Marshall to make a trip
along the proposed route and estimate
the cost of making the same. 1t is
thought the extension will cost some
where in the neighborhood OF S.500.
The committee on investigation are
preparing a circular to be distributed
broadcast to advertise the project.
These circulars will be inclosed by Mr..
Wylie In his Advertising letters with
reference to his park trips. and they
will also be sent to different parts OF
the United States. The circulars will
contain a description of the scenery To
be found in the Northwest. and espe-
cially in and about Bozeman. inter-
spersed with numerous cuts OF the
prettiest views to be found in the vi
cinity.
A camp, conducted on the same plan
as the permanent camps of MIR. Wylie
in the park, will be found up the West
Gallatin canyon this summer. This
camp will be conducted by Mrs.
Fletcher. and the people of Bozeman
who do not wish to go to the bother
~ preparing a camping OUTFIT can find
a quiet retreat in the mountains and
enjoy the pleasures of camp life with
out many of its attendant evils. Mr..
Anderson will run a daily stage from
the city to this camp. so that a bust
ness man car leave town on Saturday
afternoon and return to his work on
Monday morning without any loss of
time. Permanent camps will also be
found up the Middle Creek canyon.
which Is one of the most beautiful in
the Northwest, and there is no reason
why tourists should not find a way of
disposing of several weeks each year
through these mediums, pleasantly and
cheaply to themselves and profitably
to the caterers to their whims. A more
definite plan will be formed in "A few
days and then the modus. o%perandi can
be more fully explained with reference
to advertising the hitherto unknown
grandeur of the West to the citizens
of the East.
Three ladies Of Bozeman got mixed
up in a family row last week. but no
very bad results were the consequence.
One of the pugilists was the recipient
of a black eye and another was badly
bruised by a club which n of them
used to emphasize her remarks. After
rolling around In the mud a little and
getting abused more or less, they were

The weather has been very disagree
