A CARNEGIE LIBRARY
NOW WANTED.BY
This CITY
Forward Club Asks for Use
Of a Part Of the New
Building.
COUNCIL BUYS THE SITE
Application Filed for Structure to
Cost 5,000.00-Annual Cost of
Maintenance Will Not Be Less than
$500 and will Require Levy of
Three-hfths of one Mill,

The franchises having been disposed
OF to the satisfaction of every one con-
cerned, the city council will now take
up the matter of securing a Carnegie
library. In fact, the council has al
ready taken the first step and has in
view others. Some time ago the city
purchased lots and of block 18.
These two lots are located on Blain
street between Seventh and Kimball
The city purchased lots and of
this block when the city hall was
erected. 1t is said that the plan now
is to trade lot S for lot 3, which is at
present owned by Miss Martha Gil
gan. The exchange may be made by
the city paying Miss Gilgan a bonus
of $l,l5O.OO and moving the house
now located on lot 3 to lot S. Other
sites for the library are also under
consideration.
At the meeting of the council on
Monday night committee from the
Forward Club appeared before the
council with a request that the city
council authorize an application for
a $4,000 building. and that the For
ward Club be permitted to use a part
of the building until such time as the
library requirements would demand
the use of the entire building. In Or
red to secure Carnegie library the
city will have to pledge itself to raise
annually sum equal to one-tenth of
the cost of the building for mainten-
ance purposes. A levy of three-fiifths
of one mill would raise the 81 500 re-
quired. Councilman c. Q. Adams in
forms us that lots 4 and were pur-
chased by the city in order that the
application for the library might be
made. In order to secure a building,
the city must provide the site. If this
site is not suitable, it may be sold and
another one purchased. Mr.. Carnegie
furnishes the building appropriately
labelled. Caldwell will furnish the
site and the library and pay the cost
of maintaining it.
The Tribune cannot understand why
lots and were purchased unless it
is proposed to use them. The city al
ready had three sites that could be
offered simply to fulfil the require
ments. 1t has the Lake Howard park,
with room for hundred libraries;
Curtis park with room for another hun
dred; and the site of the old city hall on
Arthur street would do for a small
library. If it is to be really used it
looks to US that the city exercised
very poor business judgment. Two in
side lots would make poor. ungainly
site. The location would necessitate
the purchase of lot and probably at
a very good price.
The Tribune is still of the opinion
that the city hall should be properly
engraved with Carnegie's name right
under Abe Waldradt's bedroom win
dow. and used for "a library. The for
ward club could use the assembly
room on the third floor whenever the
council was not in session. Andrew
Carnegie's fifteen thousand could be

B0RAH WRITES THE
COMMERCIAL CLUB
TO GET BUSY
Fisher Making Hard Fight in
the House of Rep
resentatives.
MEASURE IS IN DANGER
Commercial Clubs and Citizens of all
Western States Urged to Get Busy
in the Interests of Homesteaders-
Three-Year Bill is Now Before the
House of Representatives.

The three-year homestead bill
which was framed by Senators w. E.
Borah of Idaho and Wesley L. Jones
of Washington, has passed the SEN
ate but is being held up in the house.
Secretary Fisher is very much op-
posed to the measure and is using his
influence to defeat it. A substitute
measure has been introduced which
provides no decrease in the residence
period but relieves from actual resi-
dence the first two years. The house
is favorably disposed to pass this sub
stitute. In consequence it behooves
the settlers and homesteaders to take
action in behalf of the Borah-J Jones
bill. Those who came from eastern
states are particularly urged to write
their former representatives in con-
gress; and all citizens of Canyon coun-
ty are urged to write their former
friends that they may write to con-
gressmen with whom they are &C
quainted The people of the west will
have to create public sentiment that
will force congress to take action
If the people of the east are made
familiar with conditions in the west
are informed of what is needed-there
is no question but that they will lend
helping hand.
Secretary French of the Caldwell
Commercial club is in receipt of a
letter from Senator Borah requesting
him to urge the people to help in
this matter. Among other things
Senator Borah says:
The secretary Of the interior is op-
posing the measure. He is offering
as a substitute a bill which does not
decrease the residence period but re-
lieves from actual residence for the
first two years. This, in my opinion
is very poor substitute and very lit
tie relief l would be very much
pleased if the commercial club could
see that number of letters are sent
to different members of congress con-
corning this subject. l would espe-
cially like if some of our friends who
have come from the east would write
to some of their members from the
east explaining to them fully the sit
uation and the necessity of the law
l would like also if you could take the
matter up with some of the CONNER
cial clubs throughout Montana and
Nevada and other arid states and get
them interested also.

Don't put it off an hour
Senator Borah needs your help-the help of every
in the communty-or the Three-year Homestead Bill will
be defeated in the House by Secretary Fisher.
For the West this bill is the important
since the Reclamation Act passed-so get under it.
Canada getting thousands of settlers yearly that would

And it will be-if every writes to member of
Congress whom he knows influential friend in
Middle West and earnestly urges his support of
this important

The Secret of Success
] Merit Required to Win the
 Peoples Confidence

Have you ever stopped to reason why 1t is that so many products that are ext tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon for Eotfen7- The reason is pIain--the ar- tfc1e did not fulfil the promises of the raanufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A me- dicinaa preparation that has real cu- retive value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy fs recommended by those who have Eseen cured, to those who are in need of it.
 Tn an interview on the subject a prominent local druggist says Take for example pr. Kilmer's Swamp Root. a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to rec or11rnend, for in almost every case it shows ir1m ediate results, as many of my custom ners testify. No other kid ney remedy that I-now of has so large a saIe.r
 The success of pr. KiImer's Swamp Root is due to the fact that it full ii1s every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes Rheumatism
