first of June worth $3.50 and that he
has had information from another
boy that Frost still has the shoes and
now he has resolved to recover the
shoes in spite of the trouble with the
Us. Asked to defer action pending
the U, s. prosecution of Frost, Ze-
Iigman said: mo. might still get the
shoes.
There was no false accusation in
the case of ]. H. Curry, negro SER
want at the ElIx's club, when he COM
planned to the police that little dog
had bit him, and bit him bad. He
showed a vacant square in his trous-
ers and a bandage beneath with the
blood on it which only the most
skepticaI would doubt was the result
of energetic dog play.
The dog was reputed to belong to
z. F. Rost of 124 Topeka avenue and
he was brought to the station charged
with harboring a vicious cur. Curry
admitted that a girl came out of the
house and called the dog off after
he had unguardedly walked past and
been attacked. but the dog had al
ready taken the square of blue serge.
Rost claimed the dog was not his own
but belonged to his daughter. At any
rate he pleaded guilty and paid a SIS
fine.
Ben Judkfns, special agent of the
mans life coming up on the train
from Kansas City last night. The
man was ]. J. Delahany and was so
drunk he became dizzy and wanted off
the train, trying repeatedly to jump
off. Judkins saw the fellow and took
him in charge and after arriving in
Topeka tried to get him to continue
on his way, but again the fellow
wanted off and lit onto the platform
in a bunch.
Just for that. he was taken to the
police station in Black Marian and
fined S. this morning. Asked where
he lived by the judge, thinking of
Adams or First street, j. J. Delahany
said: Twelve miles from Harrison,

Bush Carper has just finished
term in the city prison, working out
his fine of SO for his last drunk.
Faithfully he has promised upon each
of his countless trials for the same
charge that that would be the last
the very 1ast-time and has pleaded
earnestly for leniency. But when he
went it seems that Bush left some
laundry. Anyhow he claims that he
was just coming down after his laun-
dry Saturday when he was arrested.
Detective WOnderly saw him coming
and showed him the way. Then the
doors locked and Bush was once more
to stand trial for drunkenness for he
had chosen a bad time to call for his
laundry. AS the memory of the
judge went, Bush had promised on
his last trial that if he ever was ar
rested he hoped to be fined 500 and
the judge had his pencil ready to
mark that sum down when poor old
Carper went to the knees, ''Ah, judge, !
now please, now don't do that. All, |
no sir" in such repentance that the
Judge made it but $25 and the former
trusty will begin his next months |
free service for the city.

BOOSTING.

Boosting a town is no one
mans game but an undertaking
in which everyone interested in
the town and community should
be engaged in. A town where
IT, merchants and others are
not working in unity very sell
dom makes any noticeable ad-
vancement, whereas a town
where everyone vurk am pull
together alw; : SHOWS a steady
growth a. an increase in all
lines of business. We know of
several towns that are dragging
along, handicapped because of
ar ill-feeling among the bust
ness men and from them we
should take warning. To boost
and upbuild a town as it should
be, the cooperation of all must
be secured.
II the people and citizens of
Ekalaka hope for a larger and
better town they must pull to-
gether instead of working against
each other. The town will not
advance unless we do. AS we
know, there is now a good open
ing in Ekalaka for several lines
Of business among which is a
harness shop. An establishment
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1909-11-12

of this kind would be a paying
proposition and if you know OF
anyone looking for a location of
this kind, do a little boosting by
notifying him of this opportunity.
Another business which is need
ed and we believe would be a
good investment is a butcher
shop. The shortage of meat dur
ing the summer months demon
strated the need of this establish
ment. These enterprises along
with others should be boosted
for, and the sooner we get them,
the better.
To patronize home industry is
one of the best ways to boost
and build up the town and corn-
try. The Ekalaka merchant in
vests his money at home which
also remains in circulation at
home aside from that which is
spent for new goods, etc. He

hard earned dollars when you
send them away to the mail order
houses? Do the help to pay for
our new school house? Does this
money help to improve the roads
and upbuild the country? Not on
your tin-type. 1t Cos away to
stay. You are helping to pay
wages, taxes and insurance in a
country where you receive no
benefit whatever. Patronizing
home industry pays in more
ways than one.
II you're a booster, now is the
time to boost. Don't wait for
the other fellow to start the
ball rolling.
That Ekalaka is located in one
of the most promising agricul-
tural sections in the west is an
unquestionable fact. No better
agricultural land can be found in
the great farming states of Iowa,
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1909-11-12

Illinois, Minnesota or the OAK
ota's and we are keen to say
that in a few years this fact will
be acknowledged by our sister
states, providing, we keep boost
ing and prove this statement by
encouraging settlers to locate
here who will raise crops which
the country is capable of raising,
and raising successfully. There
are thousands of acres of unoc-
cupied government land lying
within a radius of Is miles of
Ekalaka and as the immigrant
movement towards the west is
now efecting this immediate
vicinity it should be to our in
terest to encourage and try to
get the better class Of homeseek-
ers to locate. What is meant by
the better class" aye those who
are fairly we L. fixed financially
and capable of making a success
at farming. The homeseekers
are coming. There's no stopping
to them, so why not encourage
them on.
When the country grows, the
town grows and by boosting the
country you boost the town.

It's foam upon the swallows wings;
