The Methodist conference never did
n better thing than when they re-
turned Parson st. Hill to this diocese.

Garneill to fill our aching void, was

Idle capital can find an opening in
the town Of Garneill, where there il Il
big demand for another business
house. The store now doing bus-
ness here has magnificent patron
age and Is making money for the
owners, but as the business il in-
creasing every day it won't be long
before this one store will beunahle tn
handle the trade that is rushing in.
The towns Of Central Montana
that are In the public eye" today
are Lewistown, GarneiIl and IInr-
low. They are in direct line, Ike
peas In pod, aud aS the center pea
in the pod il always the largest. there
is a great future in store for Garneill.
The traffic to and fro from Lewis
town 10 Harlow must necessarily
pass through Garneill, so it won'tre-
quire nn N-ray machine to show the
man with money the opening. There
are four corner lots left vacant yet.
SO, to avoid the rush, lets hear from
you before the middle OF the week.

as he Is ut home. Mr.. Neill Is n level.
headed, conservative business man
and will give to the people, when
elected, n clearcut, economical and
wise administration Of county affairs.
and as we have private information
that he has with him always the foot
OF a rabbit, killed in the dark of tho
moon, we are prepared to take the
long end Of a bet that he will caus,
the flag to be dropped on his oppon
ent before the half-mile post is reached
