MOORE GETS
BIG BOOST
WILL HAVE A BANK, NEWSPAPER
AND TELEPHONE EXCHANGE
SHORTLY.

The thriving little town of Moore
is about to take another forward step
in its progress, plans having just been
completed for the establishment of
state bank there. The institution will
have capital of $4,000, and the
leading farmers and business men of
the Rock creek bench are interested
in it, while two leading Lewistown
bankers think well enough of the pro-
ject to become identified with it.
Will Erect Building.
The bank will be located on Main
street. a site having been secured ad-
joining the Moore Mercantile com.
pany's establishment. Upon this a
fine brick building-the first to be
erected in Moore-wilf be constructed.
and as soon as the building is finish
ed, the bank will commence doing
business. J. c. Hauck, the well known
farmer and wool grower. is one Of
the leading spirits in this enterprise,
which means so much for the business
interests of the town. Associated with
him are such men as G. r. Wilson,
william Barney, c. r. McClave, G. p.
Tooley, p. T. Elliston and Benton
Norris. and S. s. Hobson and Austin
w. War;, president and assistant
cashier. respectively. Of the Bank of
Fergus County.
Telephone Exchange.
In a short time Moore will have a
telephone exchange. the Lewist0wn
company having decided to add this
Improvement just as soon as possible.
This will be a great convenience to
the people of Moore, and an advan.
tage to Lewistown as well.
A Weekly Paper.
Still another move of general inter
est is the plan, recently perfected,
Of establishing weekly paper at
Moore. which will be representative
Of the Rock creek bench section. The
promoters are G. H. Beasley and Butte
Upton. and while a name for the
| paper has not yet been selected. its
motto is announced to be with q
mission and without a muzzle." and
| 1t is stated that the first issue will ap.
pear during the first week in Sep.
| tember.
Taken altogether. these new enter
prises ought to prove very important
factors in the prosperity and progress

sURRENDERs HIMSELF.

John Conners, Accused Of Horse steal.
ing, Gives Himself Up.
John Conners, aged about 10, who
had been wanted since last June for
supposed completely in the theft of
Jimmerfield's ranch near Pine Grove,
rode into town yesterday morning and
surrendered himself to Deputy Sher.
if Tullock. County Attorney Roy E.
Ayers was notified, and it is expected
that the preliminary examination will
be held before Justice of the Peace
w. T. Mcfarland next Monday. Con.
ners states that he did not steal the
horses, but admits that he rode one
of them over the range while he was
looking for an animal that belonged to
him. He was working for Mr. jim
merfield just before the theft, and one
Of the horses stolen formerly belong.
ed to him, he having traded 1t to Mr..
Jimmerfleld.
A short time ago Deputy Sheriff
TullOck was out in Dawson county
on other business when he ran onto
Conners. He had no warrant for the
man nor did he have any idea as to
who the young fellow was. Conners
might easily have avoided suspicion,
but the old saying that "a guilty con-
science needs no accuser" seems to
have had it's application right there.
for he made tracks away from the
officer as rapidly as possible Through
this incident, his whereabouts were
finally discovered, and Deputy Sher.
If Ed. Silverthorne was sent out after
him. 1t is the supposition that he
became aware of this fact, and rode
on in to give himself up.
John McEachney, who was arrested
some days ago by Deputy Sheriff Tul-
lock. is suspected Of having been i'm
plicated in the theft of the Jimmer-
field horses.

tion in grain rates throughout its east

agricultural possibilities.

"and never in my life have I seen
such a grain country. Over ON the

Railroad Needed.
"Of course. what is needed here
most is railroad facilities-a road
that will open up this vast area that
can grow wheat. More and more
ground is coming under cultivation
each year in this basin, and you will
soon have to have an outlet for it.
l believe that a road will come in.
and then thousands of acres of wheat
lands that are now barren will be pro-
ducing the grain. This land cannot
be used now because there is no road
into it, and anyhow. without an out.
