COMMISSIONERS MEETING.

At a recent meeting of the Coun-
ty Commissioners of Phillips county
it was decided to accept the offer
of an eastern firm represented by F..
w. Hall of this city, for bonding the
county in the sum of 100000 to
pay off the Indebtedness to Blaine
and Valley counties and take up all
outstanding warrants and place the
county on cash basis. This money
will be available soon and with the
money coming in this month on
taxes this county will be in pretty
good circumstances financially. At
the same meeting the commissioners
decided to accept the free offer of
r. M. Trafton for a site for the
court house and the same will be To-
Gated on the block of land where
the base ball park now is, but before
a new building is built the same will
have to go to a vote of the people,
It was thought advisable to accept
the free site at this time and have
the land in the name of the county
as long as it did not cost anything.
Mr.. Trafton was the first white set
tier in Malta and this offer is con-
sidered very generous on his part.

WAGNER LITERARY NOTES.

Wagner Literary society met at
the school house Friday, November
5. The room was crowded and seats
were unobtainable. The program
was very interesting and was en-
joyed by all. Following is the pro-
gram which was rendered.:
Piano Solo, Verna Davidson.
Biography, Pete Martel.
Recitation, Melvin Martle.,
Reading, Mrs. A. Davidson.
Recitation, Marguerite Hurley.
Piano solo, Lillian Davidson.
Debate, Resolved, That Further
Material Increase in the Army and
Navy is Undesirable" Affirmative,
w. p. McCombs, Verna Davidson;
negative, Lillian Davidson, Judge
Davidson. This debate is one which
is being debated in congress now
and was, of course, very enthusiast
tically discussed by our debaters.
The judges decided in favor of the
negative, although the affirmative
gave very good discussion.
The society will meet again Fri
day, Nov. 10, at o'clock. The re-
freshment committee will serve
lunch and all are invited to be pres
ent, as a good program has been
prepared and a debate on the "Sin-

WOMAN's CLUB.

Owing to the large increase in
membership, the Malta Woman's
Club met in the Congregational
church on Saturday afternoon. At
a short business session it was de-
cided to accept the invitation of the
Dodson club to visit them in Janu-
airy, the arrangements to be COM
pleted soon.
AS the story telling department
for the children of the club men,
bers has proven such a success, it
was thought best to continue it, and
new quarters will be provided as the
building now in use is to be sold.
Mrs. Callicotte has kindly offered
her house for this purpose for the
next meeting.
A program of much interest was
given on the conservation of birds,
two papers being read by Miss Dor
othy Aver and Mrs. H. A. Parker.
Fine. refreshments closed the
meeting and the club will meet next
with Miss Coughlin, Miss Hakes,
Mrs Beam and Mrs. Mcclellan at the
home of the latter.

DODsON GROWING.

A recent visit to the hustling lit
tie city of DOdsOn In the western
end of Phillips county confirms the
published reports that it is fast COM
ing to the front as one of the best
trading points in our new county.
All of the general stores, and there
are three large ones, seem to be do
ing a great amount of business and
in conversation with the prOprietOrs
we learned that collections are bet
ter than ever this fall, which ought
to be good news for those in that
section. Grain is coming into the
elevators there in large quantities
and considerable grain is also being
shipped direct to the eastern mar
kets by the farmers themselves
Since the building of the new
Pioneer hotel the accommodations
in this line cannot be excelled by
any small hotel along this line of
railroad and with two such genial
proprietors as Bud Barrett and Dud-
ley Jones, 1t is pleasure to stop at
the new hotel when in DOdsOn.
Within the past five years the
country tributary to Dodson has set
tied up wonderfully and as this is
their nearest trading point it natur-
ally increases the volume of bust
ness transacted there. The stores
all carry large stocks of nearly
everything the homesteader needs
so there is little occasion for them
trading elsewhere
Since our last visit Editor Mills
has moved his printing plant across
the creek and up into the business
section of the town and the Mon
tana Idea is now issued regularly
from the comfortable new location.
Brother Mills is giving the people
of that section a good, live paper
and should receive the support of
every business house in that locality
The residence section of Dodson
has kept pace with the growth of
the business interests and several
fine new residences have been erect
ed the past year. If Dodson keeps
on growing the next few years as
it has in the past it will soon be-
come one of the largest towns in
the county.

NOTICE..

U. S. Land Office. Glasgow, Mon
tana, November 18th, 1915.
To whom it may concern:- Notice
is hereby given that the State of
Montana, acting under the provis-
ions of an Act of Congress, approved
February 2Sth, 1891, has made ap-
plication for the selections of the
following lands, to-wit:
SEA, Sec. 80, T. 33 NJ, r. 20 E.,
M. NJ, and lots / and 2, NEANW Il
and N1aNEA, Sec. 10, T. 80 NJ, r.
80 E., M. M.
A copy of the list of said lands
has been conspicuously posted in
this office for inspection by any per-
son interested and the public in gen.
eral. Under departmental regula-
tions of April 25th, 1907, protests
or contests against the claim of the
State to said land, or any subdivis-
ion thereof on the ground that the
same is more valuable for mineral
than for agricultural purposes will
be received and noted for report to
the General Land Office at Washing
ton, D. G. Failure to protest against
the claim of the State to said land
before final approval will be con-
sidered sufficient evidence of its non
mineral character and the selections
being otherwise free rom obiec-
tions will be recommended for ap-
prevail.

PHILLIPS COUNTY MINES
ARE VERY BUSY.

ut was very gratifying to note
the activities that are taking place
in the Little Rockies mining camps, -
said Supervisor Scott LeavitL Of the
Jefferson national forest. Mr.. Lea
Wits remarks were inspired by his
recent visit to the forest reserve in
the Little Rockies which is his juris-
diction.
while on this visit which was
made for purposes of inspection, :"
said Mr.. Leavitt, IT visited the three
mining camps, the Ruby Gulch at
Whitcomb; the August mine at Lam
dusky and the Beaver Creek on Bea-
YER creek. All of these are produc-
ing gold in paying quantities, so I
am told, and it was very evident
they were all busy. 1t was stated
that the August mine was not run
ming at capacity, but it was very
busy. AS to the number of men en-
ployed at the three places, I could
not say, but it is sufficient to make
a spirit of general prosperity appar-
ent and everybody very optimistic.
"The results at the stamp mills
of the mines are said to be of most
satisfactory nature. Men with whom
I talked expressed the opinion that
the mining industry in that section
one of large proportions compared
to which the work of the present is
hardly beginning"
Mr.. Leavitt said the interest in
grazing privileges in the forest re-
serve for that section of the reserve
he directs has been much in excess
of what it could handle and that he
expected better results in the future
but even then that he would be I'M
able to handle all the stock that
would be grazed there if permits
could be granted. eff we sell the
right to Craze we must deliver the
grass" said he, land to do that we
must limit the number that may
have the privilege. We will take
care of every head that can be han
died, however"

DON'T IT MAKE YOU MAD?

We all attend the moving picture
shows and it is the great pastime
of the age. Nearly everyone who
attends can read and do read the
titles of the pictures as they are
thrown on the screen, but it sure
does get on ones nerves to have
some dame sit right behind you
when you are enjoying an exception
ally good show and read the titles
out loud. Yes, they do it in Malta
as they do it in every other city
where the movies are shown. The
management of the theatres try
their best to abate this nuisance but
still there are some who persist in
reading aloud in spite of all that
can be done to stop it. 1t makes you
mad but it seems it can't be helped.

Eight. widows have asked for lump
sum settlements.
The board is still investigating
the circumstances of the dependents
of the men killed and will be slow
to grant lump sum awards, al
though the mining company has sig
nified willingness to pay lump
sums. The board is resolved to pay
the money in the manner that will
do the most good, and lump sums
settlement will be made only where
the benefciaries convince the board
they can handle the money prudent
ly and to their advantage.
Among the widows is one who
has six children, none above 10
years of age, and others also have
children, for all of them are young
women. In the view of the board
these Deneficiaries in the most part
are incapable of investing a lump
sum such as $4,000 and will be
better off in receiving a regular
weekly annuity for 100 weeks.
However, the board will not reach
any decision until they have
weighed all the conditions. The in
surance money which will be paid
by the company will approximate
