Today the Inter Mountain presents to
the public of this state the pictures Of
five Of the most popular young ladies in
the state of Montana. The test Of popu-
larity was made in the recent voting
contest conducted by this paper and the
young ladies pictured above are the ones
selected to represent Montana at the
Pan American exposition at Buffalo
New York. Called from the various
sections of the state to this distinguished
position the young laaies who will soon
be on their way to the great exposition
are entitled to the warmest congratu-
lations. They are the recipients of more
esteem than usually falls to the lot of
young ladies who come before the pub
lie gaze-and they deserve it all.
At the beginning of the Inter Noun
tain coupon voting contest the state
was divided into four sections. Butte
was. made one battle ground and from
here two young ladies were to be Sc
lected. Anaconda. Deer Lodge and Mis-
soula composed another division of the
state and elected a candidate for the
Buffalo trip, Virginia City, Bozeman and
Dillon We're matched in a contest of
pleasant rivalry and Livingston, Red
Lodge and Billings formed the eastern
division of the state. All of these sec
tfons had a number of candidates. In
the city Of Butte the contest was per-
haps more exciting than in any other
portion of the state and when finally
Miss Mary O'Connor and Miss Gussie
Laurent We're selected there was COM
plete satisfaction expressed.
From Dillon Miss Nellie Morse was
elected after a close and exciting con-
test, Miss Nellie Sheehan came from
Anaconda by the grace of the thousands
of votes sent in by admiring friends and
from Livingston Miss Emma Coleman
was sent as the victor over a number OF
competitors All the candidates are
charming girls-victory came to them cas-
lily enough for they We're favorites in the
communities in which they resided.
All the young ladies are in Butte to-
day, preparing to start for the long trip
to the exposition They will be the
guests OF the Inter Mountain on the trip
and-like the other notable excursions on
which the winners of the Inter Mountain
contests have gone-this will be one Of
the most pleasant jaunts ever taken by
young ladies of this state who have jour-
neyed beyond the borders of the good
Treasure state.

The same gentle and lovable nature

which she is held by her Butte friends.
She is at present an employee of the M.

Miss O'Connor to Buffalo the Inter

the city of Butte, but also upon the state
of Montana. as she is representative

BIG PROSPECTS.
The Beet Crop Double That Of
Last Year---Crop Gener-
aIly Good.

The beet crop. according to the very
best investigation, will be very fattering
this year.
The Sentinel man went to the COM
pany's offices this morning ana asked
for positive information, regarding tho
condition Of the crop. Chemist Shaw,
who has been out in the fields consider
ably up to within weeh ssays that the
crop prospects are TT least twice as good
as last year and probably oven better
proportion than that, although he did
not care to place it tbo high. "Of
course" said Mr.. Shaw, our plant has
several times the capaci8 OF the beets
which will doubtless be teiseo this year.
but we are glad to say that the farmers
are understanding the Imatter better
than ever before and that next year
there is every rrospsct sbf having four
and probably Ave times he many beets
as were run here the sec15nd year"
"The aim Of tho conpany this year
has been to got the raisilk OF beets down
to a practical system We have en-
deavored to avoid making any false
moves and We think ne have accom-
plished this DESIRE" X
The people Of this city and the valley
will rejoice with the coHpany that they
have very fair crop this season. The
running OF the great plant OF the Colo
RADIO Sugar Manufacturing company
means much to this city ana valley. 1t
was tho first great industrial enterprise
that this valley ever secured and il it
