U. S. MONEY MARKETS
SHUT TO FOREIGNERS
Action to Preserve Americas
Financial Supremacy.

Washington, May 29.--To enable the
United States to retain its present SUI
premacy in international finance
throughout the war--an aim with
which the entente powers are UNDER
stood to be in full accord-and to
emerge in strong financial condition
afterward. officials have in mind the
enforcement of program. the salient
features Of which are:
The virtual closing Of American
money markets to further foreign gov
eminent BON. issues throughout the
war
The stabilizing of business condi-
tons SO far as possible by the contem-
plated international purchasing board:
and
Capitalization Of the country's finan-
cial system by the admittance to. the
federal reserve system of thousands Of
strong trust companies and state banks
at present non-members.
Virtually all financial plans Of the
government. including the flotation Of
the Liberty Loan and the program Of
financing the entente government. as
well as the efforts to continue the
conntry's present prosperity. are made
with those features In mind
Closing Of the markets here to fur
thcr issues of foreign government
bonds is regarded rs imperative IL the
government is to remain master of the
financial situation. To this end. it is
understood that the> government will
notify bankers contemplating the un-
derwrtng Of foreign bondssof its dis
approval. The investment market. so
far as the government can control It,
is not to be disturbed by outside bond
issues for the big proportion of Amer
ica's savings. 1t is felt, will be needed
to finance the Fart America will play
in the war.
CO. operating with the United States
In this respect. Great Britain changed
its plans upon Americas entrance into
the war to issue $500. 100000 in bonds
here. secured by Canadian Pacific Sc
curities. When the United States en-
tered the war; the plans were cancelled
and Great Britain borrowed what
funds it needed from the American
treasury instead.

STEVENSVILLE YOUTH
TAKE HOE AND RAKE
School Children Become Pro-
ducers for Summer.

Stevensville, May. 29.-tSpcciaD-
With the closing of the Stevcnsville
schools last Friday, many of the stu
dents of the grammar and high schools
have laid away their books and gotten
out their spades and hoes to common &C
the garden campaign. On account of
the war situation many of the students
are needing the call of the country to-
day for more growing acreage and are
determined to help in that manner in
conserving the food supply.
Before the adjournment Of the high
school several of the boys of the school
took advantage of the opportunity
given them by the faculty to drop their
studies and commence the work on the
farms and in the gardens However,
the student taking up the proposition
was required to be UP in his studies
sufficient to pass on his credits, and
until school adjourned they were re-
quircd to report at intervals. The plan
worked out well, and a number of the
high school boys now have the starters
for good growing crops, although
mostly on a small scale. The boys
W no entered lntO the WORK, prepared
the soil, arc now rewarded by seeing
the grains and vegetables coming up
through the ground and apparently all
are enjoying the work.
Numerous garden patches have been
planted by the school children, the
little industrial fairs that have been
conducted in the fall at the grammar
school having much to do with tho
encouragement of the children in the
garden work.

for complaints, and cover a great many
saoJects. These subjects range
through many departments of the

seem to come from the city and deal
almost entirely with purely city quos-
tlons. The farmers, except in a very
few instances. have indicated no de-

sns OF doing business, nor has there
been any particular objections raised
as to the treatment Of the farmer by
the city and practically no suggestions
have been offered as to any way in
which the farmer can be assisted in
his work
ihefe Is no question that n number
OF objections which are Frequently
raised in conversation, have not been
touched on and before announcing the
result. the chamber Of commerce would
Ike to have the farmers take a hand
ana express their needs. 1t is hoped
'siat by this means some difficulties
may be explained and scmo good Hc
accomplished for the community. ANY
who have mislaid their postals are
welcome to send in a letter explaining
thelr views and those who have not
received the letter are welcome to OK
Dress their views as all the letters were
addressed to the men of the commu-

TO RESUME LIGHTING
Of STREETS JUNE |
Hamilton Dads Sign Con-
tract With Missoula Light
Company.
RUNS FOR TWO YEARS
Question of Payment Is to Be
Decided at Referendum
in July.

Hamilton. May Especial. 1.-The
city council last night voted to resume
street lighting, service on June l. Il
contract for Il period of two years al
ready having been negotiated with the
Missoula Light and Water company.
The company is to furnish 80 lights
from dusk to 1880 a. m. for 500 per
month. A special election will be held
some time in July so that the people
may say whether or not they will issue
bonds to cover the city's Indebtedness.
1t had been tentatively agreed that
the service should not be resumed until
September |. On Monday, however,
Aldermen William Grimes and Olaf
Peterson, who had been elected on a
platform promising street lights and
better police protection, determined to
bSng the matter to showdown at
once. Accordingly they proceeded to
circulate subscription paper among
the business men of the town to raise
funds. In a few hours they had Sc
cured pledges for $164.o5 per month
and reported this action to the coun Gil
last night. The council then deter
mined in the interest of fairness and
equity, that since there was such &,
strong sentiment for resumption of the
lights regardless of cost, every tax
payer should help defray expenses
City Attorney Johnson was instruct
ed by unanimous vote to draft resolu-
tons providing for submission of the
question of assessing a two (2) mill
special tax to pay for the lights and
also for submission of the proposition
to refund outstanding light warrants
amounting to 100000. These warrants
now draw interest at the rate Of six
per cent, but if retired by bond issue
the rate would be but ~. or 5 per cent
