Miles City is making Il strong
effort to capture share of the horse
business in eastern Montana and a
number of commission men have or
gained the Montana Range Horse
association for the purpose of holding
sales and inducing buyers to come
from the east to bid on stock. The
promoters of the enterprise guarantee
at least 1000 head of horses which
will be sold at the N. p. stock yards
near town. The sale is advert ,ed to
take place on May 80, 81 and June l
and will be conducted by ST. Louis
auctioneer. The News is glad to see
that Miles City is endeavorinr to re
gain her grip on the stock business,
but suggests that for a real bona tidc
sale Forsyth has something more sub
stantial to offer and buyers contem-
plating visit to this part of the state

pulled off here next month. 1t will

doubled in capacity for the accomm =
dation of stock and Y. w. Longley
the range superintendent for the fl RIM,
is having additional yards built few
miles up the track where horses may
be classiti fled to suit the needs Of the
purchasers. The firm, however, do
not propose to give away the stock
and as their horsesar all in fine mar

AS stated excluvisely in the News
last week the American Hotel passed
from the hands of Thornton & Chois-
ser to Tom Butler, late of Miles City.
The new landlore took possession on
Friday afternoon, serving his first
meal at supper time. Mr.. Butler
showed his energy and enterprise by
inaugurating improvements from the
start, but it will take some time to ac-
complish all that he has set out to do.
So far as the table is concerned there
is no cause for complaint under the
new management as it is now up to
the standard set by the bes. hotels
along the road. On Saturday evening
there was an informal opening of the
bar which proved a popular feature.
A fine luncheon was served and there
was guitar and mandolin music to
cheer the guests. John Shearlock has
charge of the bar and proves himself Il
competent man in every respect. The
office and bar will be retitted and fur
nished anew, the dining room further
improved in appearance and extensive
alterations made in the working part
of the hotel. Forsyth has progressed
to point where the hotel patrons have
a right to expect the best service and
the American will meet all the require
ments.

With the coming of spring baseball
it threatens to assume a more acute
form in Forsyth than ever before.
Not that it is any worse elsewhere
this year than in the past. but the re-
cent arrival here of several young men
who are known as good players has
tended to create an increased interest
in the game and the coming season
will probably find Forsyth in the front
ranks of this end of the state SO far as
the national game is concerned. While
our neighboring town of Miles City
has not yet organized its ball team,
those prominent in the sport there say
that they will have a good team this
year and have intimated that they
would like to try our mettle either on
Decoration Day or the National Holt
day. In order that the work of organ
ization and preparation may proceed
at once several of the principal promot-
ers of the game have requested the
News to call Il meeting for tomorrow

aries can be discussed and arranged.

represented this year by a crack ball
team are requested to meet at the

so conspicuously in the Clark-Daly

hands for several years has finally
been disposed of by division among the
various counties of the state for use of
the schools. The division was ordered
by the last legislature and with the
exception of the apportionmenl of four
counties was cleaned up some time
ago Owing to the division of Rose
bud and Custer counties the money
due them was withheld until a salts

Last week County Treasurer Longley
