Two weeks ago The Gazette an.
nounced that David Scott, at one time

had made arrangements to start dem.

Scott is now in the east purchasing a
plant. But when he gets back to Red

there'll be democratic paper al
ready in existence at the coal metrop-
oils. 1t will be Of the Marcus DAILY
persuasion and will be called the Car
bon County Democrat, the first issue Of
which will appear about Dec. /. Mr..
Scott gave it out in Billings that his
newspaper would advocate the democ.
racy Of the Dalycrats, but he had a
partner in the enterprise who halls
from Bridger-W A. Clark's coal
camp. That made the DAILY democrats
Of Red Lodge suspicious; they didn't
propose to be fooled in q newspaper,

up against one Of the best republican
papers in Montana. Walter Anderson,
with his Red Lodge Picket, will come
pretty near seeing to it that Carbon

both the Dalycrats and Clarkites will
get left. There is no need Of q second
newspaper in Red Lodge and it will
have to be a good one indeed to com.
pare with the Picket. But the DAILY
faction is spending it's money freely to
secure newspapers. 1t has already
made deals for papers at Bozeman, Liv.

Red Lodge deal, and negotiations are
on for DAILY paper in Billings and at
several other points throughout the
state.

causing great decrease il the receipts

that this city is given the proper facil.

business, if the facilities wero enlarged,
would warrant the belief that Billings
would be changed to free delivery Office
next year, but this will not be brought
about unless the department takes
prompt action looking to larger room.
As things stand at present the gov.
ernment is not paying rent for it's
office. The lease on the present room
expired couple OF months ago and no
new one is in force. The bank refuses
to accept any rent and thereby reserves
the right to order the Office removed.
The Office is now using the new issue Of
money orders, which are made to give
carbon duplicates Of the orders, instead
Of having to write letter Of advice
separately, and keep a whole line Of
