TO BUILD A FACTORY.
Preliminary Steps Taken to Establish
Sugar Beet Factory.

preliminary Steps Taken to Establish
Sugar Beet Factory.
Despite the fact that the beet sugar
bounty bill was vetoed by Governor
Toole. there is still some probability
that Montana will have a beet sugar
factory within year or two. Pre-
liminary plans are now being made by
Utah parties for the establishment of
plant in the Bitter Root Valley, says
the Helena Herald. The extent of the
enterprise makes it a necessarily slow
one. as it requires from year to
eighteen months to put in large
mill, and from 100000 to $500, 900 in
vestment.
The late Marcus DAILY had practic-
ally completed plans for the con-
struction of such plant on his ranch
in the Bitter Root valley and had sew
eral men at work creating interest
among the farmers in the culture Of
beets. His death suspended further
operations and while the plant will
not be built by the Daily estate, it will
in all probability be put in by Utah
parties.
Owners of the Ogden beet sugar fac
tory have had representative at
Hamilton for the last fortnight, who
will spend the summer in the Bitter
Root valley and return after having
made an extensive investigation of the
characted of the sugar beet raised in
that locality. Many individual farm
ers all over the Bitter Root valley
have made experiments with sugar
beets and found the crop more prolific
than they had reason to expect. The
tests made for saccharine substance
give a return of from IL to II per cent.
Two years ago this summer the Bit
ter Root stock farm planted tract of
20 acres of sugar beet and the yield
was immense. The beets were sent
tc laboratories all over the country
and some to Germany. The returns
were uniform.
The average price paid by the fac
tory for sugar beets in Utah is $3.50
a ton and the yield is very large.

for his labor than nearly any other

the people are rapidly beginning to
read evening newspapers exclusive
ly. We think, says the Brooklyn
Eagle, the real source of the wonder
full progress made by the evening
press during the past four Or five
years, and which indicates that in the
near future it is certain to take cir
culation and business entirely away
from the morning press, is due to
combination of all these circumstan-
ces. Improvements in machinery and
speed in picture making and typeset-
ting have enabled the evening papers
to progress morally, intellectually and
newsily. This has developed and sat
isfied a natural desire among the peo-
pie. Most men like to take a paper
home and read it by the fireside at
night, when the family is in repose,
and time is ample. A morning paper
on the contrary, must necessarily be
perused hastily, and thrown away. So
it appears to us in proportion as the
evening papers satisfy the demand of
the people for news and literature,
they will take business and circulation
away from the morning papers. In
nearly every large city of the union
they have shown a tendency to en-
large on these lines. Readers and
advertisers are everywhere preparing
for the change.

Game Warden SCOTS appointment
of his father as one of his deputies is
as disgraceful an act of nepotism as
has occurred in Montana so far. How.
ever, the practice is common in the
United States. In Canada or Great
Britain the public official who would
use his authority to provide soft
places for his relatives would be
hooted from Office, but in this country
it seems to be quite the thing. Secre
tary Hay appointed his son to a con-
sulship and Governor Toole appointed
his sister-in-law to an easy job in
his office, so that Warden Scott is
only following illustrious examples.
The objection to the practice is plain.
An official cannot or will not hold a
relative to the same strict account as
he would one who is not relative,
and the relative knowing this it is but
natural that advantage should be TAX
en- of such a condition. However,
Warden Scotts appointment of his
father is unique in way. The prac-
tice of fathers appointing sons to soft
Jobs is common enough, but it Is not
often that the rule is reversed

THE CANTEEN AGAIN.

The members of the Baptist Minis
terial association of Chicago do not
apparently hold their opinions rev
erently, but arrogantly. Thus, after
having requested one of their number
to investigate the conditions at Fort
Sheridan before and since the aboli-
ton Of the army canteen, they have
refused to listen to the report because
it reaches the conclusion that the
abolition of the canteen was a bad
move and that it ought to be rein
stated.
The clergyman who was requested
to investigate and report feels that he
has grievance and will resign from
the conference. In this he does him
self honor, inasmuch as the action of
the conference indicates that they
wanted a report to the effect that the
canteen was bad institution and its
abolition was good move, whether
the conditions warranted such re-
port or not The action of the confer
ence convicts it of palpable dishon-
esty. Such report as it desired
might have been written during re-
cess of twenty minutes 1t wanted
whitewash and desired one of it's
members to prostitute himself as the
instrument for the creation of false
public sentiment The Rev. Mr.. Dex-
ter is an honor to the cloth and his
influence for good will be ten times
that of the whole aggregation who
wanted him to stifie his convictions
for the benefit of a system which is
making riotous drunkards out of sol
liers who, under the canteen system
were temperate and self-respecting.

THE EVENING PAPER.

OF course, it is easy to allege that
improved machinery, extended meth
DDS of transportation, the concentra-
ton of population in large cities,
speed in the transmission of intelli-
gence by telegraph and telephone. and
the cheapenng of typesetting and
other forms of civilized progress ac-
count for the tremendous favor into
which the evening papers are coming
as well as the consequent immense in
crease in their circulation every
where; but, when all these things are
cited and considered, they still fall
short of accounting for the fact that

When the Right Kind Of a Man Came
Along.
A tall, naughty dame was Elysabyth
Smythe. with face that e'er
frosted the hearts
OF the masculine ones who assiduous-
ly sought to wound her with
Loves shining darts;
To all she was cold as breath from
the north, to all she did sing the
old song:
"a sister I'll be-" till one happy day
the right kind of man came
along
He looked in the eyes of Elysabyth
Smythe and he mingled his fea-
lures with hern,
And as far as we know this once chill
ly maid. did give not single gol
dern;
He wrapped both his arms round her
willowy waist, and in that she did
notice no wrong,
For matters looked different to sweet
Lyric Smythe when he that was
right came along.
Oh, he slipped from her lips the honey
of bliss and unjointed the rat in
her hair,
And this maid once as cold as board
ing house room didn't seem to
object or to care,
In fact, she did cling to his neck like
leech from night till the roost-
er's clear song
Jared her off his lap in the times
subsequent when he that was
right came along.
To him she was married one day in
the spring, and they went for to
live in fiat
That contained but two rooms and a
back-alley view, but she kicked
not a kicklet at that
She was happy as ever woman
could be, bratlets she had quite
throng,
Which all indicates how things bright
en- up when he that is right comes
along.
MORAL.
All women, regardless of kind or of
class, be they as cold as they
make 'em and more,
Or be they as proud as saleslady
who yells "cash" in novelty
store
Some day they will melt as the ice
doth in June and changeth their
man-hating song,
At the happiest time in a woman's
whole life, when the right kind
of a man comes along.

FRIDAY MAY "a, 1901.
GET A FIRE TEAM.


The determination of the city to
paint the fire hall inside and out is
to be commended, but the painting
process will not save the boys the ne.
cessity of hauling the heavy hose carts
to the scene of a fire. It looks as
though it would be good investment
for the city to buy good team and
hire man to take care of them, for
the use of the fire department. 1t is
distressing and decidedly lakewood
ish the way the hose carts are taken
to fire in this city, although there is
some compensation in the energetic,
courageous and intelligent way in
which the boys handle a fire after
they get there. Perhaps if the boys
would put less vim into their work
and let a fire or two get away from
them, the city council might see the
way clear to provide a means where
by the boys might save their strength
and energy for the actual fire fight
ing, instead of in hauling a heavy hose
cart over half the town. When the
alarm sounded for the Valley house
fire last Saturday night, one Of the
hose carts was quickly and sufficient
ly manned and got away in good
shape, but the other one was pulled to
the fire by only two of the fire brig
ade, while the crowd looked on and
jeered. No wonder the firemen we're
angry; they had occasion. At another
time the fire was in the extreme west
of the city-at the round house-and
the streets were ankle deep in mud.
1t was out of the question for the boys
to pull the hose cart that distance
under the circumstances, and dray-
man offered the assistance of his
team, but when both hose carts and
the hook and ladder wagon were at
tached and the dray itself loaded down
with men, the driver naturally object
ed and the whole Dcocession stood still
on the corner for several minutes I'M
til another teamster offered his as
sistance. The situation was ridicu.
lOus and exasperating. Long before
the hose reels reached the scene of
the fire, it was out, and the thanks of
the railroad officials rendered the fire
department had an ironical flavor The
firemen were not to blame, but the
stingy economy of the city was to
blame.
1t is exhilarating. exciting and in
spring to see the Kalispell firemen
at work. They accept peril and dis
comfort as a matter of course and go
forth to do battle with the fire demon
as to the recreation of pleasant holi
day. They deserve encouragement.
The dash of spirited team of horses
to a fire is sight for gods and
men. If the beholder has blood thai
can tingle it will tingle at such 6
sight as it will at nothing else. Or
the other hand the sight of men drag
