KEEPING up THEIR SPIRITS.

fortunately, the limited Circulation
nf the local weeklies will prevent any
stampede as a result of their frantic
attempts at keeping their spirits up
and reassuring the people that kalis-
pell is not to be abandoned for at
least two or three years yet. Colonel
Moore is footloose and can follow the
boom with his grasshopper press,
whether it leads to Columbia Falls
or Whitefsh for he will carry the
county patronage of public printer
fol one year longer, SO he keeps
within Flathead county, and that is
now about his only asset. The repub-
lican organ, however, must needs
camp right here in Kalispell to hold
the land office graft, which is to it
as the county printing to the doughty
colonel

poppy-decked vaporings and imprac-
ticable imaginings of the Journal,
forecastng IN golden hues conditions
that can never exist and promising
that Kalispell, the great and only,

boulevards to connect with White
