THE CREAMERY PROJECT.
Association Will Not Try to Make
Profit the First Year.

The directors of the Lewistown
Creamery association met Saturday
afternoon at the office of Hilger &.
Busenburg to consider plans for get
ting the plant in operation with as
little delay as possible, and after dis
cussing the matter thoroughly, decid-
ed that it would be wise to leave the
question of profit for the association
out of the question for the first year.
In accordance with this view, it
was deemed advisable to turn the
plant over to some competent man
to operate it rent free for year, he
to divide the profits with the farm
ers furnishing the milk. The directors
then offered to let Robert Morrison
have the plant on these terms, and
he will give his decision at meet
ing 10 be held February II.
AS it will be necessary to have q
supply of ice on hand when the cream
cry is started, the directors decided
to erect an ice house 16 by 20 feet,
and to fill it with ice as soon as pos
sible.
Mr. Morrison stated that if he should
take the plant on the terms offered,
he will be making butter April l.
He does not think the plant can be
Dut in full operation earlier than that
date

ly to spread the contagion. 1t was
not desired that the saloons should
be closed but that assemblages of men,
often larger In number and longer
in duration. than the church meet
ings, should be forbidden. 1t was
cited that at ~ O'Clock Sunday 16S
men by actual count were found in
seventeen saloons. at 9 o'clock 16l
men. at s o'clock 1871. The largest
number found in any saloon was 81.
The law was cited to the health Of
ficer under which he had equal power
over the churches and saloons and
this has since been concurred in by
an attorney. DR.. Wilson refused to
make any change in his order on the
ground that he did not have author

suggested that the church people
might come within the protection of
the law if they could arrange to do
their singing and praying in the
saloons next Sunday, provided pos
sibly, that not more than thirty one
should gather in any one saloon.
