HOLD POE TO FEDERAL COURT.

On a charge, made by the United
States Postal Inspectors, of using
the mails to defraud, Will T. Poe,
former city auditor here, was this
week bound over to the United
States District court for trial at the
next session in Helena. The hearing
took place at Malta, Mont, where
Poe was arrested two weeks ago
after a chase by local real estate
men he had defrauded.
Poe was turned over to the federal
authorities as the best means of
handling the multiplicity of charges
against him in connection with his
fraudulent dealings with H. V. Smith,
e. G. Carney, F. P. Bergman and
other Wiliston real estate dealers.
Poe secured $3.50 from H. V.
Smith and $3.50 from E. G. Carney
on forged mortgages and made an
attempt to secure $500 loan from
+. p. Bergman on similar paper.
Accompanied by State Parole Of
ficer w. L. Dopking, Sheriff Erick-
son went to Malta last week to make
claim to have the prisoner turned
over to the North Dakota authori-
ties should there be any likelihood
that the Montana authorities would
not deal fully with the case.
The federal authorities were also
on the ground and it was agreed to
turn Poe over to them for prosecu-
ton on charges of violating the pos
tai laws.--Williston Herald.

SEVERAL NEW RESIDENCES.

A number of Malta citizens are
taking advantage of the nice fall
weather we are having to erect new
dwelling places. Considerable build
ing has been done here all summer
and wherever you go about town
you cannot help but find something
new. Many citizens owning auto
mobiles have erected comfortable
garages for their cars, some of them
of concrete and many of the mod
ern galvanized steele type.
Mrs. Casselberg is erecting neat
bungalow in the Survant addition
and work on this will be pushed to
have the house completed before
snow flies.
Henry Plott has let the contract
to G. M. Mclaughlin for a fine new
modern bungalow on his lot near
the Doores residence in south Malta
and the work on the cellar and con-
crete foundation is we'll under way.
Mr.. Plott's house will be modern in
every respect with connections with
t44e city water and sewer systems
and wired for electric lights.
Street Commissioner Vert is erect
ing new house for himself and
family on his lots out in Cosner's
addition. Mr.. Vert will have very
comfortable dwelling when all is
completed about the place.
w. G. Schneider, clerk and re-
corder, is erecting a pretty bunga-
low on his lots in the south part of
the city. 1t will be up.to-date in
every respect and will make an ex-
cellent home for the Schneider fam
lily when finished.
County Commissioner Whitcomb
has erected a neat little bungalow
on the hill just south of the ceme-
terry. Last week he moved his fam
lily out to the new home and is quite
comfortably situated. 1t is a very
pretty place and commands good
view of the city and surrounding val
ley.
County Attorney Wolfe has err
ected new home for himself on his
ranch little over a mile from the
heart of the city. It is a splendid
frame structure just within sight of
Malta on the south HILL The dis
lance makes it a comfortable walk
for our genial county attorney every
morning and evening.
Work has been commenced on the
new United Brethren church on the
corner near the present tabernacle
and the large crew at work expect
to finish the superstructure of the
church in a short time. 1t will be
very modern affair and will cost in
the neighbOrhOOd of $4,000.

LEAVE THE BRIDGE.

Out south of Malta on the old
Musselshell trail, but which is now
a duly laid out county road, is a
bridge across Beaver creek that the
county at one time had constructed
at a great deal of expense. Before
this bridge was put in there the
only way to cross the stream was by
fording and this was not very pleas
ant especially when the creek was
overfowing it's banks. Near this
bridge is or were several miles of
fence belonging to B. D. Phillips. 1t
seems that this point is a favorite
camping spot for people in that sec
ton and it has been their habit in
the past to make this point the first
night out from Malta if they had
any load and go into camp at the
bridge for the night. It was found
necessary when so camping to have
fire to cook the evening meal with
and so the fence, being handy, some
one started using the fence posts for
fuel until in short time over two
miles of running fence has been torn
down by these vandals. Mr.. Phillips
was we'll aware of who was doing
the work and caused word to be cir
culated that prosecutions would fol-
low so now a part of the fence is
being put back post by post.
Not so with our county bridge,
however, as with no prospect of US
ing any more fences the railing on
the sides of the bridge were torn off
and used for fire wood and it is an
actual fact they have even started
to cut out the props underneath The
bridge. The matter has been
brought to the attention of the
county commissioners and steps will
be taken to at least have the bridge
proper remain intact
This only goes to show how far
some people will go if you give them
a chance. 1t is petty larceny trick
at the best, and it was bad enough
when private property was appropri-
ated but when they start destroying
public property, when the bridge
was put there for the benefit of
these same people, it was time some
thing was done in the matter.

THE SUGAR BEET FACTORY.

with CHINOOK ana Harlem DOM
working hard to land the coming
sugar beet factory for their towns
there is no reason why Malta should
lay back and allow the up river
towns to get away with the bacon.
We have every advantage here for a
factory and it will be remembered
that when the inspectors were in the
valley a few years ago examining
the soil that they found conditions
tributary to Malta ideal for fac
tory at this point. In the analy-
sis of our soil it was proved to be
the best of any examined in the
valley.
Years ago when the sugar beet
agitation was at it's height in the
valley Malta did not have one half
the advantages it now has as the
big government ditch was only in
it's infancy and the dam at Dodson
now complete and in fact the irri-
cation system is practically com
plete to Malta and for several miles
ands of acres of good tillable land
turned into the raising of sugar
I OOL0. A Low LII Ll1S 6OCllOll nave GA
perimented with the sugar beet and
this year some as fine samples as
were on exhibition at the Montana
State Fair came from this section
John Hardin has been successful
with this product and what few Mrs.
Alex. Elliot has raised were of an
extra fine quality. This shows that
we have the soil and as to having
0vn0rionn0d 70 MN -
of crop it is said on good authority
that skilled labor is not required.
Billings is one of the foremost
cities of the Treasure state today
and only few years ago it was
a quiet little city. The coming of
of the sugar factory to that section
started that town ON the upward
trend and ever since it has been
growing, and yet any number of
people who have visited the Billings
country and then came over here
state that we have them beat for soil
and other general conditions are
more favorable here.
If the population of Billings
doubled in the last few years since
the advent of the sugar factory to
that section what better argument
could be advanced for Malta to go
litter the factory?
We learned this week that a rep
resentative of the sugar beet indus
try is in our midst and it has been
suggested as good move on our
part to have statement prepared
Showing the many natural advant-
hges of Malta and surrounding

A "FIyinq" Malady.

The doctors are puzzled concerning strange malady that has broken out at more than one aeroplane works, and has in one case ended fatally. The malady in some respects resembles yellow jaundice, and it is, rightly or wrongly, attributed to contact with an aeroplane dope" or to inhaling its odor
 Further particulars need not at the moment be indicated, but it has been suggested that the source of the trou- ble may be amyl acetate. which Is used as dope" solvent. Some mys- tery attaches to the affair, the precise nature of the malady not having yet been determined, in spite of close ex- animation and analysis and, of course, until success is attained in this direc- tion no satisfactory precautions or remedy can be devised.

ROSES LURE GOAT FROM CANS
Row Results, Police Called in, and An9ora Is Ordered to Keep
 Of the Lawn.

Atlanta.-Red roses and their ap- peal to the appetite of an angora goat have kicked up a neighborhood row which the police have been called in to arbtrate.
 The roses bud on the lawn of John Cunningham home, No. 33 Colquitt avenue. The goat, the property of a neighbor. is supposed to browse in a nearby pasture: but, according to Mir Cunningham. this is mere supposition
 He complains that for the past three weeks the goat has wandered of the farm and, lured by crimson buds. has wrought havoc on the Cunningham lawn. He declares the goat has de- veloped an appetite for the flowers which results in the mastication of six or seven roses day.
 Mir. Cunningham could stand it no longer. The police station was called and an officer who investigated issued orders that hereafter the goat must confine his meals to his own grass and tin cans.
