Municipality Will Take Over Manage

Bonds Are Sold and Roundup Water
Co. Adjusts lts Holdings to Agree
ments Made With the City Prior to
the Election.

The voters of the city, last Monday
demonstrated that they considered the
purchase Of the water plant Of the
Roundup Water Company good thing
by voting for the issuance OF the
bonds By majority vote that was
overwhelming. Only 125 votes were
cast and out Of that number, 102 were
convinced that now was the time for
city ownership of this utility
while 23 only objected to the purchase
at this time. The total registration

News Snapshots
Of the Week
DOES SOME GOOD BOOSTING
Carl N. Thompson Gives Butte Folks
Few Pointers on Greatness Of
Roundup and Musseishell Co.

Carl N. Thompson, one of Roundup's
well known attorneys, was in Butte
this week on professional matters, and
Incidentally while in the big mining
city did some effective boosting.
Mondays Butte Daily Post contained
the following:
carl N. Thompson, who was today
admitted to practice before the United
States federal court, is one Of the
pioneers of Roundup. If not the first,
he was one of the first lawyers to
practice law in that enterprising lit
tie city, for he was on the ground
when the town was born and christen-
ed. He has large ranch on Flatwil-
low in Fergus county, about 35 miles
north of Roundup, and is one of many
who have great faith in that section
of the state.
"Our section is coming to the front
as one of the best agricultural regions
of the state said Mr.. Thompson at
the Butte hotel today. We raised the
finest kind of watermelons on my farm
this season. | recall that one of them
weighed 2S pounds. Our corn was
more than feet high, and it yielded
very we'll indeed. We can grow prac-
tically any kind of garden stuff there.
We had wagonloads of tomatoes go
to waste, as it was not practicable to
haul them into market at Roundup.
Land that will produce fine tomatoes
in quantity must be all right. AS for
grain, no section of Montana can grow
better or heavier wheat and oats In
fact, we have an ideal farming section,
and when we have transportation IA
cilities as we will in time, no region
will be more prosperous
"Mr Thompson is prominent in the
! order of Eagles and is known in fra
ternal circles in all parts of Montana.
He has been urged to attend the meet.
ing of the local aerie this evening, and
undoubtedly will accept the invitation
IL he remains in the city over night
"'Roundup has one of the strong
aeries in the state,' he said this after
noon. We recently added 4S new
members, and at the close Of the
present campaign, which will end
shortly, think we will have mem
bership of more than 800. We have
purchased a lot on Main street ir
Roundup and expect to put up build
ing devoted to the local aerie. The
order is popular among the miners
and we have taken the initiative II
! several movements that are intended
to be of general benefit to the com
munity.

gress. 1t will be six years old mex

1908, when the Milwaukee compan.

are working practically full forces i
the district and the tonnage promise
to be unusually large this winter
With the mines tributary to Roundu
there are fully 1000 people in tn

MAlOS-THE
DIFFERENT GIRL SHOW

In booking the GRACE RUSSELL
MINSTREL MAIDS" the management
of the Orpheum is bringing to Round
up the most novel attraction Of the
season. The company is large one
and Miss Russell has surrounded her
self with decidedly clever lot of
young ladies. In attending this per-
formance you will see something en-
tirely out of the ordinary. A big mu-
sical show with "PUNCH."
The Company is large one and
numbers among the headliners The
Prayer sisters late Of the Winter
Garden, New York, Flo RUSSELL Lillian
Colson, Roma Scott, Charlotte Tomp-
kins, Mildred Manning, Evla May and
the Merkel sisters.
The scenery, costumes and electrical
effects are all new, the songs catchy,
and the musical numbers of which
there are twenty-four are gems in
stage craft
The Company carries their own or
chestra and comes to Roundup on
December 4th at the Orpheum Theatre
direct from a triumphant tour of the
east and south. Records have been
broken everywhere this clever COM
pany has appeared.
To refute an old adage, the man
agement will introduce what promises
to be the only new thing under the
sun, an ADAMLESS Musical Show.
The idea of the conceit originated in
the brain of Miss Grace NJ. Russell,
herself pioneer in the art of enter
tanning. She has collected bevy of
pretty, fresh, sweet, young girls to
whom she has impaired her ideas con-
summating in clever show which she
is pleased to style THE GRACE M.
RUSSELL MERRY MINSTREL
MAIDS. The program which they will
offer On the occasion of their first
| appearance here, presents a sparkling
array of novelties which run the ga
nut from an all-girl minstrel first
part, presided over by Miss Russell in
| the capacity of interlocutor, to the
presentation of the very newest OF
classic dances interspersed with sew
eral pretty musical oddities introduc-
| ing the entire company of girls. The
| Lott wi VII, n
innovation in the annals Of local
| theatres for we are assured that they,
on the occasion of their visit, will
come as the one real sparkling limo
vation of the current season.

Harry Kilbourne, local manager of
the Continental Telegraph office, in
forms The Record that the head Off
cials of the company have stated that
the lines of the Continental will in all
probability be turned over this spring
to the Postal Telegraph and Cable
Company. If this deal is consummat-
ed, it will mean the establishment of
a large office in Roundup, from where
all the relay work of the state will be
handled. This will be done because
Roundup in itself is first class tele-
graphic station paying we'll and be-
cause it is centrally located east and
west.

What is a Carat

the Arabians to any pod or husk'
and particularly to the fruit of tn"
locust tree. It probably was intro

A LOVE OF DRESS.

Parents are unduly disturbed
in perceiving in their children a
love of dress. But it is natural,
and we think praiseworthy, to
try to hook one s best and we
should prefer an undue fondness
for neat and fitting attire, to the
slovenly Indifference to it on the
part of either boy or girl. RAJ

wonderful seer, whose vision pen
Grated every sham and saw into
the motives of men, and gave
many a maxim for life's conduct
A yonth seeking a business posi-
ton will recommend himself by
the trimness of his clothing, by
its general well-brushed and well
kept effect. An unt ly girl is
never comely. No beautiful Of
the rose in her cheek, or of abun-
dant hair, no grace of form can
compensate for buttonless shoes,
