The differences that have existed
between the Montana railroad com
pany and the Straw tOwnsite com
pany have all been adjusted, and
| Straw has resumed its place on the
railroad map. Straw sprang into ex
istence after the completion of the
railway, and soon became a thriving
little town. The railway company
claimed that the townsite company
had agreed to sell it certain grount
necessary to the road at that point
and had failed to keep this agreement
For time, the railway ignored thu
existence of Straw just as far as pos
sible, and it looked as though the en-
terprising town would be eliminated
An agreement has at last been reach
ed, however, the railway company ha
secured the land which it was claim
ed the townsite company had agree'
to sell it, and everyone is satisfied.
