THE NEWSPAPER AND THE PEOPLE.

There are certain classes of business
that are so closely concerned with the
'pple that each individual has IA
ri.tht to demand that the business be
conducted on Il proper basis and with
eqtal fairness to all. There was Il
tilt when it was thought that a man
coil Id as "A matter of right do what
helpleased with that which was his,
but this conception has long ago left
the mind of the thinking man. And
it is now conceded that in some lines
Of business the people have a voice in
its. arrangement even though they
own no part of the business. No bet
ter example of this can be given than
that Of the railroad. Not so very long
ago. the roads conducted their own
afairs-conducted them SO unfairly
to the people. that laws were made to
control to a certain extent the bust
ness Of the roads for and on behalf of
the people.
Many other lines of business in
which the people are vitaly interest
ed ate run without much regard to
the rights of the people and laws have
not rs yet been passed attempting to
look 10 their regulation.
Perhaps there is no business so
clOsly allied to the people rs that of
newspaper. 1t speaks for the COM
munty, it aids or Injuries, it stands
for advancement or retrogatiOn, it is

WATCH MONTANA GROW.

Butte Miner: Fifty-tive giant steam
plows are turning over new sod in
Fergus county at the rate of over
1000 acres daily" says the Democrat,
published at Lewistown.
1T is such little items as this quoted
that tell the story of Montana
marvellous agricultural development.
Two or three weeks ago the Miner
referred to a comment from paper
published in WibauN that nearly 80
steam plows We're at work within
short radius of that town.
1t is almost impossible for the res
ident of Butte. who does not travel
over the state to realize how rapidly
Montana is being settled up and its
arabic land being cultivated.
Actually. of course. the movement
has only Just commenced and when
the 32o-acrp dry homestead law be
comes applicable to the uuirrigable
land Of the entire commoalwralth, the
rush of humehulNers AtflassMontana
will be still greater than lat present.
If the newcomers in eastern Mon
tana have good crops this year, and
there is nc apparent reason why they
Should not have if they adopt the ap-
proved method Of dry farming, the
influx to this state will be even great
er - months hence than it is at
present.
The prospect is THAT IN the next
few years the grow til Of this state will
surpass that Of any other common
wealth in the Union.
The reason for this is found in the
fact that Montana agricultural pos
sibilities have only recently become
known 20 the outside world.
In the matter Of getting settlers for
its lands this state has dragged along
behind almost all the other western
commemorative.
Originally the railroads were more
anxious to carry settlers through
Montana - Washington and Oregon
il preference to have them stop off
Aelr.
Now the transportation companies
are doing t4eir Tart to attract home
Dslil-ra TO Montana.
III All interview i'll the Miner a few
days ago Snrv-yor-G eral Cone Of
Montana referred TO the fact that new
II III the History Of his Office has il
been 50 busy. and much Of this eN-
ira work comes from applications for
surveys made by the Northern Pacific.

surveyed So that it can sell them to

action effects every individual within
the limits of its influence. And every
individual therefore has right to
demand fairness from the newspaper.
Especially is this true in towns and
cities of the smaller class. Business
men of every class will measure the
character of town by the news
paper it supports. New business is
brought through it's power and i'll
tiuence and each citizen profits from
properly conducted paper. In a
new town like Broadview every citizen
should be interested in the newspaper.
He should feel that in a way he is
partner in the business and in his way
he should help to make it success:
if it makes good it brings new bust
ness to the town and he reaps his
share of the profits.
The first great requisite to good
newspaper is honesty. The word of
the newspaper man must be absolute
ly good, every citizen must be able to
rely upon it in every respect and in
stance. One morning great news
paper found that it had been beaten
on an important piece OF news-an
interview with a great politician. The
leporter who had been sent to get the
diece of news was asked how it hap
pened that the other paper had it
while his did not. 81 had the story"
said the reporter, "but | gave my
word that would hold it for three
days. even from our Office ''Son
you are Il great man." said the man
ager. 1t is this kind of honesty that
the newspaper man must have.
The door of Il newspaper Office
should be swung wide to the public.
Every one should feel free to come in
and talk to any and every man in the
Office. Every citizens should count
himself Il partner in the business and
help it along as much as possible.
Hail the newspaper man on the street
and tell him the things Of interest
that You run onto from day to day.
Then when the paper comes out you
will feel that you had part III its
making and you'll share in its sue
cess. Remember that the raw mater
ial for the paper comes from you, and
is made up for you-the more you
give the more you receive.
The Bulletin will be glad to see
YOU amy time-no member of it's staff
will ever be too busy to give you at
tention, and it will always try to
make a stronger and better paper, for
a larger and better town. -BrOadview

An evidence that the railway COM
panies wish to assist the farmers is
shown in the recent offer made by j !.
i. Graves, president Of Spokane &
Inland Empire Electric road who
offered $4,000 in cash prizes for tile
best mile of constructed highway in
tn counties ia which his road oper-
ates. in Washington and Idaho. This
line does All extensive freight bust
ness between Spokane and the smaller
towns in those states, and it is for
the purpose OF helping to develop the
agricultural section that Mr.. Graves
makes this offer, which is to be given
in three yearly installments for the
best mile of roads constructed in 1909,
1910 and 1911. The judges are three
officials OF state institutions in the
two states interested. Good country
roads are institutions that encourage
rural development, W, III naturally
brings returns to the railroads.

Judge j. II. Balm, who has beer, tig-
uring on Il hotel for Judith Gap for
several weeks, this week made final
arrangements with l.. l.. Wood for

added: winding stairway from the
office will be put in: the entire front
of the building will he changed, and
the rooms will be refurnished
throughout. \ good sized kitchen is
now being built. \ deep well will be
drilled on the rear of the lot. All
these improvements will be completed
by the first of July. if not sooner, ut
which time the new landlord will as
sumo control and will do il good bust

that the house thus improved and
modernized as much as possible will
be adequate to meet the wants Of
Judith Gap in the hotel line for ut
least Il year. when it will have to be
greatly enlarged or IL new one built.
Mr.. Balm is an experienced hotel
