ing of national coast to coast road
through Glendive would mean much
to the development of Eastern
Montana, and the short piece OF re-
ported bad road at Medora is all
that stands in the way Of more
frequent use Of the road by auto
tourists at the present time. West
ern North Dakota ought to be
equally interested in this matter
with Eastern Montana, for nothing
could be done that would equal the
benefit derived from having good
roads for all kinds of travel through
country so rich in farm lands ana
as interesting as comprises the trip
from Dickenson, through the bao
Lands, over the fine agricultural
country of the Golden and Beaver

prominence as profitable wheat pro-

Reports received from every section
of Dawson County, by the men who are
personally farming their lands, are to
the same effect, that the late rains

to be c. Gray, who was arrested oy
nioht officer Haggerty for passing
counterfeit money at several busl-

his being bound over to the district

County Attorney Slattery con-
ducted the examination for the
State, while F. P. Leiper pleaded
for the defendant.
The officials feel that they have a
very strong case against Gray, as
the testimony of many prominent
business men, where Gray attempt

Sundays Union Service

The Union service of the churches
of Glendive given in the Methodist
church Sunday evening was success.
The attendance was good in spite OF
the hot weather, and the audience was
attentive. The church was nearly full.
! The program given by the choirs of
the three churches was success. The
Glendive people can put on a musical
program that we may be proud of. The
program varied so much that an in
terest was kept up till the very last.
The music by the orchestra was
first class, and when we listened to
them wished that they might continue
the whole evening. Every part they
gave was appreciated. Then there
was congregational singing, and we
all love to sing. The whole chorus
sang, the male quartette, which every
lover of music loves to hear, sang.
Then there was the special by the
double quartette, songs by two duettes
and two solos. Then to add to the
variety, and to give one of the great
est sermons in literature, Mr.. Lzicar
read the chapter of the soul struggle
of Jean Val Jean, by Victor Hugo. To
give full appreciation of the parts
rendered by each one would take to
much space. 1t was a good strong
program. Those present will endorse
this statement. The next union SER
vice will be held at the Episcopal
church next Sunday evening. This
one will not be the same as the one
lust mentioned. We believe that var
wing the services will make them IN
teresting. Come out and see if this
one will not be interesting also.
