BELTON ITEMS.

Bolton, Mont, Feb. 4.-The bridge
across the Middle Fork of the Flet-
head river is now closed to traffic into
the oil fields and will remain so for
the next ten days. 1t was found nee
essary to take his action owing to
the fact that the old structure of the
bridge which is being replaced must
be used as a false work upon which
the new bridge is being built.
County Commissioner Greig today
viewed the site of the proposed bridge
over Macdonald creek at the outlet
of the lake. 1t is probable that this
bridge will be built in the near future,
as it is understood that the different
oil companies interested in the field
will contribute a great part of the
money needed for it's completion.
Commissioner Greig, who will super
intend the construction work on the
bridge, will be assisted by Barney
Branagan of Dayton Creek, Dave Mel
sen, John Kneff and Charles Bowers
of Kalispell. The last three were all
members of the First Montana dur
ing it's service in the Philippines and
spend much of their time at night
talking of their service. February
is the anniversary of the battle at
the Chinese cemetery, which will be
remembered by veterans of the Span
ish war.
Fred Herrig the ranger in charge
of the oil fields, is in Kalispell attend

given wrong impression concerning
the part the army had played in
bringing the insurrection to an end;
but, if so, this was due to the fact
that he could not give correct inn
preston of the whole situation from
one point of view. Then. in order
to give the army it's just dues, he
took up and analysed it's work in the
islands and paid high tribute to it's
activity. skill and bravery. Governor
Taft also said that the great major
ity of the people of the islands desire
peace and that the insurrectionists
were by their acts preventing the
mass of the people from settling
down and earning a quiet living.

commissioners they instructed the
assessor not to assess any wagons
with tires of three inches in width or
over. This was done to encourage
ranchers and others to possess that
kind of wagon and thereby aid ma

in this county. The narrow tired
wagons now in use cut up the roads
badly, so badly, in fact, that in GER

county roads are impossible. The
