ness houses were destroyed, the citi-
zens will hold a mass meeting and take
steps to have a special election held

complaint, and the court sustained the
demurrers. The state has twenty days
in which to appeal TO the state SUI
preme court.

school will be abandoned and the
pupils of the entire district will at

SUGAR BEET MEN
SEEND DAY IN MALTA.

w. l.. Lawson, manager Of the
Billings Missoula and Lowell, Wyo.,
factories of the Great Western
Sugar company, and Judge Henry H.
Rolapp of Salta Lake City, Utah,
president of the U. S. Sugar Manu-
facturers association, spent the
greater part OF last Saturday in this
vicinity investigating the prospects
for the establishment in the Milk
River Valley Of a factory for the pro-
tluction of beet sugar. They ex-
pressed themselves as keenly disap-
pointed with some OF the conditions
in the valley, as they expected to see
irrigation farther developed than is
the case. They spoke very highly Of
the quality of the sugar beets raised
here and expressed themselves en-
phatically confident that this valley
could produce the quality of sugar
beet which they desire for the pro-
duction Of beet sugar. Mr.. Lawson
urged all those present at the meet
ing which, was held in the Court
chambers, to preach the planting OF
Alfalfa on all irrigable lands. In
this way the soil would be prepared
for the planting of sugar beets and
he stated very definitely that just
as soon as he could be shown 10000
acres of adfalfa in the Milk River
valley, that they would begin prep
aration for the erection of a sugar
beet factory. The Great Western
Sugar company is very strong con-
Germ financially, and they do not ask
nor will they accept any bonus for
the location of their factory, as the
factory is located entirely with ref
erence to the conditions, and when
the field is ready, they come in and
buy the necessary land at the market
price. There is no question but
what the raising Of sug\' beets will
be one Of the most profitable kinds
of agriculture which this valley
could enter and we feel that all
those having land capable of being
irrigated can 90 no better than to
follow the advice of Mr.. aLwson to
plant Alfalfa in preparation for the
ultimate object Of making this a
great beet growing section, which in
Colorado and Wyoming and south
orn Montana has produced great
prosperity where it has been pro-

NEW LYRIC THEATRE

WILL Be ONE OF THE PRETT|EST SHOW SHOPS
IN THE MILK RIVER VALLEY

Since l.. H. Ugland purchased the
old Bison theatre from Wallace Co
burn some wonderful changes have
been going on there, and it is now
nearly ready for the opening which
Manager Robbins hopes will take
place about Sept. goth. An opening
dance will be given at the new thea
tre Saturday evening, but no pic
lures will be shown that night and
the formal opening of the house will
occur at later date.
The name has been changed to
the new Lyric theatre and hereafter
it will be known as that and under
the management of Raymond Rob-
bins it will, no doubt, be one of the
best little theatres along the line.
The stage has all been remodeled
and two 6xS dressing rooms put in
at the rear, and the stage enlarged
to 15x25 feet, instead of 10x20, as
formerly The exit doors at the
rear have been cut through the solid
concrete wall, and as they open in
the alley will give ample means Of
escape in case Of fire. The ventilat-
ing of the new house has been we'll
taken care of by installing of four
wall fans and an immense exhaust
fan in the roof, the latter changing
the air completely every twelve min
utes independent of any other means
OF ventilation.
Four elevated boxes have been
put in at the rear, the upper ones
containing four seats ond the lower
ones three seats each. There will be
two main aisles and the seating ca
pacity will be about three hundred
and fifty.
Thirty feet has been cut oil of the

10 VOTE1 NEyT MONDAY.

The taxpayers of the city will be
called upon to vote either for or
against the franchise that will give
Malta an electric light plant for the
next twenty years. We earnestly
hope that everyone entitled to vote
Will be out aud express their desire
and from the way the plant has been
run since it Was put in and the ser
vice it has given there is 10 doubt
hut that the proposition Will carry
by big majority
There are some in the city who
are opposed to giving a franchise to
outside parties or TO any one tor that
matter, but the financial condition
OF the city makes it impossible for
it to handle the light plant, and as
badly as we need lights it would be
a good thing to vote the franchise. 1t
must be remembered that it makes
no difference II a plant is run at a
loss when a franchise is given for a
number OF years, it must be opeated
20 the satisfaction of the patrons.
The company asking for the fran
chise promises twentyfour service
and a first class plant with service
at a reasonable rate.
