Rural Phone Lines

President Stevens of the Independent
Telephone company has announced that
his company is making preparations to
install rural telephones throughout the
lower end of the valley, to connect
with St. Ignatius and later with Roman,
Dixon and Ravalli.
The plan outlined is to install the
phone and after ten days use, if the
subscriber finds the service satisfactory
he is to pay one years rental ($2Win ad-
vance. This system will help to furnish
the finances with which to erect these
lines, and it is thought to be the best
way in which to get the system in
operation without loss of time.
The only other way to get the mon
ey necessary would be to sell stock to
subscribers, and this will mean an i'm
mence amount of work and expense
and would cause delay of at least an
other year. r.-St. Ignatius Post.

GERMAN NOTE COMPLETED
BUT SUBJECT TO CHANGES

A wireless from Berlin announces the
completion of the German note to the
United States on the subject of sub
marine warfare. The note will be
subject to minor changes which may
result from interchanges of views be-
tween Berlin and general army head
quarters. 1t is stated that the note
assures the United States that Germany
will issue definite isnstruction to Ger
man submarine comanders that will
comply with the final demand of the
United States, through President Will
son. Strong hopes that favorable
outcome will result are entertained,
but all decision is being reserved by the
Washington government pending the
arrival of the German note.

NEW OPERA HOUSE
FOR ROMAN SOON

H. M. Gehlert has completed arrange
ments for the erection of new opera
house in Roman. Ground was purchased
from the Flathead Townsite company,
opposite the Stanley Scearce store, the
first of the week and construction will
commence next week.
The building will be 36x96 feet and
the plans call for an up-to-date building
throughout. A stage 20x20 will be pro-
vided with dressing rooms on either side,
sloping floor with some 300 individual
folding opera chairs, ticket box with
entrances on both sides, fireproof
housing for moving picture machines,
carpeted aisle and electric lights.
At the present time the show bust
ness will probably not justify the erec.
ton Of show house of this kind but
Mr.. Gehlert says he is building for the
future and is confident the time will
soon come when his investment will
prove to be good one. The new opera
house will be one Roman people can call
attention to with pride and one that
would be credit to any city.

After voting, 213 to 1865, to strike

any declaration setting a definite time
for granting the islands their indie
pendence.

Milk Fever In Cows

The recent loss of valuable COW in
a herd near Missoula from milk fever"
(Which is really not fever) brings this
cow trouble so forcibly to my mind
that feel impelled to write dis
cription of the nature of the trouble,
its treatment and prevention. 1t is a
disease that attacks only the best cows,
the we'll nourished, heavy mixers and
comes on SUDDENLY, generally within 48
hours after calving or more often with
in "a hours. 1t very rarely occurs in
heifers; cows dropping their fourth,
fifth or sixth calves are most likely to
be attacked as they are then in their
prime as milk producers. Death Tor
recovery may occur within 18 hours
or longer time. If the COW is not
treated, death is very likely to occure.
SYMPTOMS:
Cow may be uneasy at the beginning
of the attack and this is shown by
switching of the tail, treading with

SOME PROPOSE CHANGE
IN PROHIBITION Law

According to a prominent resident of
the state of sWashington the mooted
question of whether there should be
some change in the prohibition law of
that state. has been brought before
the voters. The citizens of the larger
cities, he says, are not unanimous in
their approval or disapproval of the
prohibition law, the enforcement of
which has been matter of considerable
trouble there.
An initiative measure has been filed
at the capitol representing the alterna-
tive law, modifying state wide prohibi-
tion,. he said "The mea-
sure authorizes manufacturers of beer
in our state to put out their product,
selling it in the same manner that is
followed now by people who wish to inn
port intoxicants from other states, not
ably from Montana. The bill reduces
the amount of alcohol allowed in beer
to per cent. Formerly beer contained
per cent, and the beer being shipped
IN has about that much alcohol. The
measure contemplates the abolition of
saloons and the sale of liquor in resorts
of any kind. 1t is framed to give the
Washington manufacturer the privi-
leges accorded the manufacturer and
wholesaler in Montana. There can be
no drinking on the premises. Six quarts
is the most allowed at one sale and no
beer can be sold except in bottles.

Practice Game Ties

The Roman and St. lgnatius ball
teams met in St. 1gnatius last Sunday
for practice game, playing seven in
nings with even honors. Our boys have
had little if any practice and most of
them have been like foundered horses
since Sundays game. Both teams
showed up we'll and gave every promise
of playing fast ball this summer.
A game is scheduled for next Sunday
between Roman and Somers at the lat
ter place. Arrangements are being
made for the trip to leave early in the
morning, taking the boat at Poison for
Somers, the round trip on the lake be-
ing made for 81 per. In addition to
seeing good ball game the trip itself
will be worth more than the price and
good bunch of Roman boosters should
accompany the team.
