Thanksgiving he heard a cOmmotion

The Malta orchestra was very much
in demand the past week. Wednes-

in Saco. Thursday night they played
at the annual ball of the I.O.O.Fs. at
Harlem, where they report one of the
largest gatherings ever held in the
Milk River Valley. At both places
the members of the orchestra were
royalty entertained. Friday night
the orchestra played at dance in
this city. The dance was given by
the Malta Cornet Band and a good
size bunch were present.
In another column we publish a
town ordinance which states in part
that all owners or occupants of any
building shall keep their walks clear
of all snow, ice, slush or mud. This
isa good ordinance and should be
strictly enforced, but we believe it
would have a wholesome effect if the
village authorities would see that the
crossings were also kept in proper

dam, Senator Carter of Montana.
chairman of the senate committee on
irri cation. was somewhat more de-
cided in his remarks on pending irri-
cation projects. Senator Carter said
he proposed to get money to COM
plete every irrigation project of the
government reclamation service now
under way in the west.
He said that it was important that
/ these systems be completed, and in
asmuch as the reclamation funds are
short, he proposed to have the sccre-
tary of the interior issue warrants
for ten million dollars and have The
secretary of the treasury honor them
from The national treasury, the same
to be repaid as soon as the money is
paid back from irrigation enterprises.
This, said Senator Carter, would en-
alb lie all reclamation work now under
way to 90 forward without Interrupt
ton.
Senator Carter also said he would
favor change in the present law
which requires ten equal payments
for lands, and have system of grad
ual payments, small for the first few
years and increasing later. This
system, in the belief of Senator Car
ter, would be of benefit tC farmers. as
payments for their land would not
become heavy until the far S were
well under cultivation.

ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST

Thanksgiving passed off very heal
thy in Malta, last Thursday. Most
all the business houses were kept
closed during the crucial hour.
There was plenty of gobbler for all in
Malta and we have not heard from
any who were not thankful that they
existed. In the evening a grand ball
was given by the band, which was a
great tendency to help some of the
men folks from being foundered.

GOOD ADVICE.
TO PARENTS

An exchange has the following
which should interest all parents who
have children attending school. ;, is
it the schools. We say this because
we know it is the proper thing to do.
The teachers are always glad to have
the parents show an interest in the
schools and in the work Of the chill
dren. The school board are pleased
to have parents show an interest in
the schools and the boys and girls
are always glad to have their parents
visit them at school. 1t is whole
some stimulus to every one and the
schools are sure to be benefited and
made more efficient when such visit
ing is practiced. And the parents
themselves are greatly, benefited by
going. 1t is not necessary to have
any formality about it. just drop in
any time and get acquainted wi tn the
teachers and with the kind of school
| ing your children are getting, and
more you go the more you will want
to go. We do not pretend that we
have done much of this kind of visit
ing during late years and we are will
ing to admit that we have neglected
our duty, but we do know from eXpe-
rience and observation, that the
schools are better, the teachers more
interested and the pupils more studi-
Gus and enthusiastic in their work
when it is an every day occurrence
for parents to visit the schools.

W. J. Kelley, freight and passen-

day on business in connection with

road company had finally decided
to put up a big wool warehouse
at this point. 1t had been general
ly known for some time that the
railroad company was contemplat.
ing such move, but the announces
ment at this time comes as pleas
ant surprise to Roundup people,
who have tried. various means to
get the company interested in this
project. Many Of the woolgrowers
in this territory have singnified their
intention Of marketing their wool
here providing the railroad COM
pany put in warehouse. It is
estimated that fully 500, 900 pounds
Of fleece will be offered for shipment
from this point.
Mr.. Kelley also said while here
that, in view Of the fact that the
local depot was far too small to
adequately handle the business,
the company has decided to build
substantial addition and make
other improvements. The plans
for the new depot are now being
made, and are to include ladies'
waiting room and additional freight
storage room. The ladies' waiting
room will be an especially welcome
innovation.
Work on both the warehouse and
depot will be commenced at a very
near date.

DR.. w. r. Smith, one of the local

locate here in the practice of that
profession, has commenced an
action in the district court of this
county against the state board OF
medical examiners, wherein the
board is cited to show cause why he
should not be granted a license.
DIR. Smith has taken the examina-
ton before the board four times
and each time was turned down for
reasons which the Doctor contends
are purely personal and other than
not being qualified.
DR.. Smith has practiced his pro-
fession for over fourteen years, is a
graduate of one of the best schools
of medicine in the country. and it
is conceded by practitioners with
whom he has come in contact here
that he is in every way quilted to

tried by jury of six physicians,
and the outcome will be awaited
with much interest.

acted by City Dads.

James U. Gridley for eletric lights
and water franchises was deferre d
by the city council at their meet
ing Monday night until tonight
(Friday)when it is expected that
matter will be definitely disposed
the Of. The members of the council
felt that the matter should be gone
into more thourghly before order
ing an election and to give them a
chance to learn the drift of opinion
Of the citizens Of Roundup as a
whole.
The application for the light
franchise meets with the councils S
favor but some objections were
raised in regard to the water fran
chise. Some Of the members Of
the council thought that the rates
We're too high. and were also of the
opinion that the application was
not as explicit as it might be. As
a form OF compromise, j. E. Wood
ard, representing Mr.. Gridley, had
been authorized to make an agree.
ment for substantial reduction in
the rates as soon as the city gains a
population Of 5000, and still
lower rates. which is to be as low
as in any city in Montana, when it
reaches the 5000 mark. Mr..
Woodard was not in position to
state where the water would be Sc
cured from as no returns have yet
been had from samples sent away
for analysis. He announced, how
ever, that the. water would i be fl
tered and would be the best water
obtainable in this section. He also
stated that Mr.. Gridley would agree
to sell the plant at actual cost ito
the city at the end of ten years
providing the city would want to
take it over at that time: ...s.

franchise himself, and if he secures
it the plant will be installed and
conducted entirely independent Of

however, he is acting forl the
company.
There seems to be no doubt but
what both applications will be act
ed upon favorably at the meeting
tonight, and that date for the
special election will be set: As
the election will have to be adver-
tised three weeks the date will be
about June 10Th.
A petition from some of the
business men on Second street east
asking that the cement sidewalks
be made ten feet wide instead of
eight on that street, was received.
After some discussion the petition
was laid over until the next meet
ing. In this connection it might
be stated that the property holders
on First avenue have started
similar movement. which will be
brought before the council tonight.
