Commercial Club Takes Steps to
Have Railroad Company Estab-
lish Flat Rate for Homeseekers
to Roundup and Return.

At the instance Of W. A. McGin.
ley, the Roundup Commercial Club
took steps at its regular injecting
Wednesday evening, to have the
Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget
Sound Railway designate Roundup
as an objective homeseekers point
and establish flat round-trip rate
rom Eastern cities to Roundup and
return with stopover privileges at
amy points in Montana east OF this
place. 1t was decided to memor-'
ialize f. a. Miller, the general pas
senger agent Of the road. and to Sc.
cure his opinion in the matter, and
afterwards to take such steps as
may be deemed necessary to secure
the desired change.
The reasons in having Roundup
designated an objective point for
homeseekcrs are obvious. The pres.
cnt homeseekers ticket reads Lewis
town and return, and in very few
instances do homcscekers get off
here to size up the advantages of
this section The view from the
train which discloses practically
nothing but the already settled bot
toms backed up by rim rocks is not
very alluring to the farmer from the
middle west who is accustomed to
stretches Of rolling praric such as
he could behold here should he take
the trouble to get off and mount
the benches.
Lcwistown is 80 miles beyond
in an entirely different country, and
it Is evident that a rate should be

up, hundreds OF people can be To-
Gated in as fertile and productive
land as there is anywhere. The es-
of flat rate to Round
wonld be OF vast assistance in the
rapid settlement of the vacand gov.
eminent land in this section, and it
would be to the advantage of the
railroad company to establish the
desired rate. Only slight reduc-
ion on the Lewistown rate, no
loubt would have the desired effect.

ALSO WANTS HALF
OF THE OFFICERS
Little Sister Village on the West
Thinks It is Admirably Located
to Be the Seat Of Government Of
the New County.

Lavina wants to be the county
seat of Musselshell county. So
states the Lavina Independent OF
last week. In presenting their
claims the Independent goes on to
say that Lavina is the ideal loca-
catian for the seat Of -ernment
of the new county; that it is un-
ique in the high average of its
buildings;;' that it is the center Of
a rich agricultural country, and
that all roads lead to Lavina. !"
Referring to Roundup the Indepen-
dent says that it is a moderately
prosperous camp that will soon
be worked out, that it is surround
ed by snow-clad mountains that
produce nothing but little coal.
These statements need no comm ent
either way.
In addition to putting in a
claim for county seat, Lavina now
also proposes to select the county
officers, of which six reside in
Lavina.
With all due respect to Lavina s
claim. we would like to remind the
Independent of few facts regard
ing the new county which have
probably escaped him. In the first
place fully seventy-fve per cent of
the population of the new county
reside within a radius of five miles
of Roundup. The bulk of the total
valuation aside from railroads is
also in the same district. Evidently
Lavina wants the mountain to
come to them. Roundup is not
fy.by-night town, but on the con-
trary as stated elsewhere in this
issue, will be supplying Lavina
with coal 1928 years hence. 1t is
by no means situated in barren
country, some of the finest agricul-
tural lands being tributary to it.
As far as being situated on two
lines OF railroad, Lavina is practic-
ally as far from that as Roundup is.
With proper connections at the
junction point some six or eight
miles vest of Lavina, Roundup will
be as easily reached from the towns
on the B. & N. as Lavina.
Roundup has waged the fight for
county division increasingly for two
years and it's business men have
spent thousands of dollars besides
a lot of hard work in their endeav-
or to secure the desired legislation. |
Now, when on the verge of success, |
Lavina steps in and wants to
carry off the honors We hardly
think Lavina is serious in the mat
ter. At least not much apprehen-
pion is felt in these quaters that
Lavina has much chance to knock
down the plum.
