Will Try Again

By reference to another col
umn Of the Pioneer this week, it
will be seen that there is a call
for a meeting to re-organize the
Commercial club in Roman. In
ones mind the cry can be heard
Of Whats the USE" or what
good did the organization ever
do?" That is not the question.
No matter if the old organization
never did one bit Of good, there
should be no holding back at this
time because the next effort may
rebound with success. Roman
needs an organization now more
than at any other period of her
existence, and it is earnestly
hoped all business men will come
out and again try to organize,
and once they do, keep the body
in activity.
Let's see what can be done.
Let's see if we can not devise
some plan to pull together and
not allow sectional feeling to
destroy all that has been accom-
plished in the past three years.
The town cannot expect to grow
and become prosperous with one
side pulling with all it's might to
destroy the other. There is room
here for both sides and when one
The Ronan pioneer. [volume] (Ronan, Mont.) 1910-1970, 1913-01-24

grows the other is benefited and
if one side goes down the other
suffers in proportion.
Then again, there are many
questions coming up which we
are interested in and which need
everybody's assistance to secure
or prevent, as the case might be.
1t will require united action to
get these things and now is the
time to solidify the people Of Ro-
nan to a single purpose the up
building of the whole town.
Come out to the meeting, and
if you have a grievance put it
aside for the good of all the peo-
pie living here. That spirit will
build a bigger and better Roman,
and none other ever will.
