HELP BOOST
FOR HARLOW
Some of the Reasons Why We
Should Boost for
HarloWton.

There has sprung up in this part
of this great state, many new
towns since the building of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound Railway. All of these have
many advantages to make them
towns of some Importance, but
none quite as many as the town of
Harlowton. 1T is the intention of
the News to make mention of these
advantages from week to week.We
wish all of the residents will take
notice of this column in our paper,
and if it does not make a booster
out of him, he had better move out
of town, as he will be of no benefit
to our city.
Harlowton is located at the
junction of tho Chicago, Milwaukee
g. Puget Sonnd Railway and Lew
istown Branch, about equal dis
tancc from Lewistown, Roundup,
Big Timber and White Sulphur
Springs, and sixty-fve miles from
each.
! We have freight and passenger
division point here. as we'll as a
branch line to Lewistown. The
roundhouse and machine shops
give employment to many men. 1t
is not generally known that the
| machinery for repairing engines,
cars, etc. is of the very latest
model and as heavy as used in any
of their shops in the west. The
Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound
Railway is the best railroad run
ming through Montana for to de.
velope the country. This advan.
tages together with it's being a
division point, will make Harlow
ton the distributing point for this
part of Montana.
| At the present time we have a
population of 1900 citizens, this
can be doubled yes trebled in less
than five years,
/ Many citizens Of every town,
!, have to 60 away from home, to see
anything to admire. | am sorry to
say we have some of that class here
but very few. If they would open
their eyes, they could see many
advantages III this town that can
not be fonnd i'll any town in this
r part of the state.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Aug. 10.
The situation as regards republican

gressive state convention here that
eight Of the republican electors would
vote for Roosevelt II elected, but even
the Roosevelt leaders here did not
know which ones they were and had
to go it blind in marking their bal

cided that only five were to be chosen
ot large and five by districts, but there
were eleven candidates on the repub
lican ballot for electors at large.
1t has been reported that q list OF
the Taft men was prepared by Taft

NEXICANS KILLED
BY THE HUNDRED.
ATROCIOUS SLAUGHTER Is RE
PORTED TO THE MEXICAN
GOVERNMENT.
PROUD OF THE SLAUGHTER
Mayor Who Ordered 2fO People Kill
cd Proud of His Deadly
WORK.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 10 Two
hundred and ten residents of the lit
tie town of Puruandaro, Michoacan,
at least half of whom were boys, was
the price demanded by Jose Politico
for the sacklng Of the. place in June.
The slaughter began In the town jail
where all the prisoners We're killed
by the guards. SO terror stricken
have the people become that none of
them has dared to let the news leak
out for fear of themselves being exc
cuted or sent to serve in the army.
Over 250 have been during the
last few months forced into the ranks
or have gone to the front.
Through q commission which to-
day called upon the minister Of the
interior asking for guarantees, the
story became known and in an inter-
view later the minister said:
This slaughter, which l consider
the most atrocious In the history of
the republic and which is proved be-
yond a doubt will be punished Sc
verely. The matter Is now in the
hands of the attorney general of the
republic. The men who have been
consigned to the army will, at my re-
quest, be released from service and
may return to their homes. The in
formation in my hands leads me to
believe that at a conservative esti-
mate half of the persons executed
were innocent"
Members of the commission which
called on the minister say that the
Jefe Politico was proud of his work
and caused to be posted on the gate
of the town cemetery a list of the
dead which was added to from time
to time.
