NEW STORE
STARTS TODAY

Stanley Scarce has let the
contract for the excavation of
his basement to burst & Denni-
son and A. A. Dix. They COM
menced work this morning. A
building has been erected near
the site of the new store build
ing within which the cement
brick will be manufactured. This
building is nearly completed and
just as soon as it is, the manu-
facture of the brick will start. A
fine quality Of sand for this work
has been found within a mile and
a half of town and no further
obstacles are in the way of push
ing the work along. Three brick
making machines are now here
and the problem of furnishing
material for the new store is
overcome. 1t is expected that
the brick can be made much
faster than needed and that no
delay will be experienced on this
score. 1t is Mr.. Scearce's inten-
ton to rush the work just as fast
as possible in order to get into
the new store before cold
weather.
1t has been definitely decided
to build on block 6, Scarce ad-
dition, where it will not be in
danger of wooden buildings, as
the old store was. This will
make two distinct business dis
tricts in the town for a short
time, but it is confidently ex-
pected the town will grow so
that there will be a continuous
business portion from Sterling
store on the east side of the
creek to the western limits of the
town. For a short time it may
be a little inconvenient, but not
for long.

SENATOR GEORGE WON'T
SUPPORT DEMOCRATS

Senator w. B. George, who
was defeated for the democratic
nomination for governor, has an
nounced that he will support
Frank Edwards, bull moose can
didate for governor, instead of
Sam V. Stewart, who defeated
him in the democratic conven-
ton, says a Billings dispatch.
He also announced that he will
vote for the third party candi-
date for lieutenant governor in
preference to w. w. Mcdowell.
Senator George gave as his rea-
son for this contemplated action
that the two candidates men
toned are candidates of the
Amalgamated Copper company.
The rumor had been current
for two days that Senator George
had aligned himself to the escut-
cheon Of Edwards and today he
was asked concerning the truth
Of the report.

ARRANGING MEETINGS
FOR THE RESERVATION

A. j. Brewer is arranging for
a speaking campaign on the
reservation. Dates are now be-
ing assigned for every school
house, with the intention of COW
ering every portion before cleo
ton.
Mr.. Brewer has offers from
number of local men who sig
nifty their willingness to talk in
his behalf, and from present in
dications party lines will be OBJ
liberated so far as Mr.. Brewer is
concerned. With only one res
ervation candidate on either
ticket, the people here feel it
their duty to support Mr.. Brow
er, and aside from this fact his
general popularity and recog-
nized ability to represent Mis-
soula county and the reservation
country in particular, is making
him a very strong candidate.
His friends here expect him to
leave the reservation with al
most a unanimous vote, and
present indications warrant this
belief.

SCHOOL TRUSTEE

The school trustees of Arlee
district met Monday last in St.
Ignatius and transacted routine
business. Except John Ennis of
Arlee the trustees were all pres
ent.
r Geo. H. Beckwith was confirm
ed as trustee in place of w. H.
Sabin, resigned, having been ap-
pointed by Mrs. Pearl T. Mar
shall, county superintendent.
Mr.. Beckwith will be a valuable
member of the board and will
give the district good service.
New school desks to supply
schools now in need of them were
ordered. A petition directed to
the county superintendent asking
for a division of the district, cut
ting off the Northern Pacific rail-
road from the balance of the dis
trict, was considered. This Pc
tition, granted, would seriously
cripple the outside schools and
leave Arlee alone with school
funds to burn. tits possible that
Roman and St. Ignatius would not
be able to care for their schools
with the property tax, and the
other schools would not be able to
run more than half the time they
do now. A counter petition will
be circulated and presented.
All the schools to be in opera
tion this winter, except the one
northeast of Roman, are now sup
piled with teachers and running
smoothly.
Chairman Resner and D. N.
Mason drove down Monday morn
ing to be on hand at the hour set
for meeting.

10 the voters upon the Flathead
Reservation
Every man who can, should
vote. 1t is a duty he owes to
himself, his family and fellow
men. 1t is the foundation and
source Of our government. In
the election to be held on the 5th
of November, there are a number
of important laws to be voted
upon, and most of our political
officers are to be elected. The
State Legislature will convene
during the coming winter, and
many important measures will be
before it for consideration and
enactment into laws that will
govern you and |. Some of these
laws are: A Direct Primary Law;
a law providing that all nomina-
tions for political offices be made
by direct vote of the people; a
law limiting campaign expenses;
a law fixing the liabilities of COR
porations in case of accidents;
a law simplifying our code; a law
allowing state school money to
be invested in farm mortgages;
a law taking the state institu-
tions of learning, out of politics
and maintaining them by taxa
ton; the bonding of the state for
the purposes of building roads;
a law providing for the classifica-
ton and appraisment of state
lands, and a more liberal leasing
or sale of the same, and various
other laws of vital Importance to
every man in Missoula county.
In order to vote upon these
laws and the officers who are to
enact them, it is necessary that
you register between now and
the 4th day of October, before a
notary public or a justice of the
peace, within the precinct where
you live. There is no charge for
registering. In order to regis
ter, one must be twenty-one
years of age and a citizen of the
United States, and have resided
within the state of Montana for
one year and within the county
of Missoula six months. 1t is an
important matter, and | hope
that every person eligible to reg
lister will appear before some
notary and register just as soon
as he possibly can, and that he
will exercise the sovereign right
of every true American citizen
in the coming election.
Respectfully yours,
A. j. BROWER.
