TENANTS MOVING INTO
NEW W0ODMAN BLOCK
ONE OF MOST UP-TO-DATE BUSl.
NESS STRUCTURES IN CITY
COMPLETED.

The contractors are this week
putting the finishing touches on the
new Woodman block on Fourth
avenue, and by the first of the month,
three business firms, who are to oc-
cupy the new building, will have
moved in.
The Fergus County Hardware COM
pany will occupy the quarters on the
corner Of Fourth avenue and Broad
way; Cummins & Schroeder, real es-
tate and loan agents, the center room.
and the Farmers Commission COM
pany, the third room.
The new structure is one of the
most artistic, architectually, and best
constructed business blocks in the
city. The big plate glass front offers
the tenants an excellent opportunity
to display their wares, and, in addi-
ton, affords fine light for the store
rooms. A foundation capable of carry
| ing a four or five-story building was
put in and it is Mr. WOOdman's inten-
ton to run it up to that height within
the next three or four years. The
cost of the block was about $4,000.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. M. Vrooman and

they attended the annual meeting of
the Montana Press Association, which
was held in the Electric City Friday
and Saturday. The Lewistown party
went over by auto, making the trip
OF 116 miles to Great Falls Thursday
afternoon in six hours. The roads
were heavy on the return journey,
which required about ten hours. No
accidents Of any nature occurred to
mar the pleasure of the trip.
Splendid Hosts.
The newspaper men and people gen.

selves entertainers par excellence.
Nothing was left undone which might
contribute to the comfort and pleasure
of the hundred or more guests and
about every person in the Electric
City seemed to have volunteered as

The Rainbow.
John Moroney, the Well-known Mon

stockholders of the company which
owns the Rainbow hotel, gave orders
that the famous new hostelry should
be the host to the visitors during the
press meeting. All Of the newspaper
boys were given fine rooms and no
charge was made. This act of cOur-

son of the fact that the Rainbow Ia

STANFORD FARMERS
WANT AN ELEVATOR
1T is CLAIMED LACK OF COM.
PETITION CAUSES DECREASE
IN MARKET PRICE.

AS threshing commences and the
farmers in the country tributary to
Stanford, says the World, become
more interested in the value of wheat
on the local market, many expressions
relative thereto, which is resulting in
movement toward the erection OF
a farmers elevator.
It is pointed out that the market
in towns represented only by line ele-
vators is, this year especially, from
2 to cents below the values received
where competition is more in evi-
dence, and farmers who will market
their grain in Stanford this fall will
doubtless take immediate action to Sc
cure top prices for their products by
the same means as has already been
realized in other towns.
The dissatisfaction has become very
pronounced during the past week, and
while the names of individuals who
have declared themselves as willing
to invest in the enterprise are with.
held from publication at this time.
there are many who stand ready to
see the matter through to success
III! dC LuC cdIl llCoI pOoolDlC
date
Two or three towns on the Billings.
Northern have farmers elevators and
lit is stated on excellent authority that
they are the means of raising the
price of wheat at such places two to
three cents per bushel. Also, in 9th
er ways, the proposition has expert
enced most pleasing success. The
number of bushels of wheat to be mar
keted at Stanford this fall probably
will not be equaleds at any other sta
ton on the Billings & Northern and
for the farmers here to erect an in
dependent house would insure tor
prices for the entire crop.
The season is well advanced and i
is a fact to be regretted that the
proposition was not considered earlier
in the summer, but with concerted ant
immediate action, an elevator coult
be completed in time to receive {
good portion of the crop.

WHITE WINGS WIN
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
THE HARLOWTON AGGREGATION
GOES DOWN TO DEFEAT IN
A FAST GAME.

The crowd that witnessed the de-
feat Of Harlowton's champions, Sun
day, at the fair grounds, was not near
ly so large as it should have been,
but more enthusiastic bunch of fans
never graced the bleachers Of any ball
ground. And they were doubtly re-
paid for coming, as Sundays game
was undoubtedly the best ever played
on the local grounds. 1t was fast and
close throughout and there were many
exciting incidents to keep the fans
on the anxious seat.
Babcock VS.. FriedIine.
Friedline, who has been the main
pitcher for Lewistown for several
years past, was in the box for the
visitors, and it goes without saying
that it was the height of "Fried's'
ambition to trim up his old team
mates. But such an unholy ambition
was not to be realized, especially with
BobcOck on the slab for the locals.
The visitors started off and in the
first inning put one man over on two
errors by Skelacky at short. The
score stood | and 0 up to the last
half of the fourth, when LewistOwn
succeeded in tieing the score, which
was due to a couple Of errors, a hit
and a wild throw. From the first
frame to the seventh, Harlowtor
failed to score, Babcock allowing but
single hit. In the seventh, the boys
from HarlOwton secured three hits
one being for three bases by Barbee
and two runs were scored. Wher
LewistoWn came to bat in the seventh
the score stood 8 to |. 1t was in thi.
inning that LeWistown started thu
fireworks. An error by Friedline, ;
single and couple Of two-base hit
by Campbell and Sweeney marked th'
undoing of HarlowtOn, and when thu
smoke cleared away, the score stoot
to 3, in favor of the locals, ther'
being no further scoring.

HOME FROM HELENA.
David Hilger Says Business Outlook
in Montana Is Most Satisfactory.

Dave Hilger returned from busi-
ness trip to Helena Saturday. He
says that the business interests in the
capital city take an optimistic view
of conditions in Montana. A salts
factory price has been received for
our wool, cattle are higher than they
have been for years and crops
throughout the state are above aver
age, with several times the usual acre
age being harvested. Their knowledge
of the immense crops and increased
acreage in the Judith Basin is evil
dence that the business interests OF
Helena take a great interest In the
Basin.
