Hamilton Business Men Tell
Farmers Factory Will
BE Constructed.
RUMORS ARE FLYING
Letter Setting Gossip at Rest
Sent Through County
by Shoudy.

Hamilton, Aril 24.-(Special.) 1.-The
following letter is being sent out by
the chamber of commerce to the
farmers of the valley. Many rumors
have been current regarding the prob
able failure of the Montana Utah
Sugar company to live up to the
promises which it hassmade, and this
letter Is positive assurance Of its de-
termination to make good:
You arc interested in the success
OF the sugar factory, in fact you were
one OF those who stood behind the
chamber Of commerce in it's efforts to
secure a beet sugar factory and made
1t possible for us to contract with the
Montana Utah Sugar company.
I'VE agreed to furnish the Montana
Ctah Sugar company with q factory
site of 80 acres when they had shown
their good faith and had demonstrated
their ability and intention to construct
n factory in time for this years crop.
The deeds have been held in escrow
for some time contingent upon such
action by the company.
We feel that you. as one Of our
co-workcrs in this big work for Ra-
valli county, are entitled to the in
information that the chamber of COM
merce is entirely satisfied with the,
work of the Montana Utah Sugar
company and has as n consequence.
and in evidence of our faith, delivered
these lpClS Tho Nfoptapa
company Is now the owner of the
Riverside factory site.
You have made a binding contract
with this company. No doubt you have
been disturbed by rumors. The action
OF the chamber Of commerce is evil
dcnce of its belief, and We ask that
you likewise give no credcnce to these
rumors.
AS you know, Ravalli county has
had bitter fight to secure this fac
tory for the county The same inter-
csts that have for many months been
trying. to deprive the county of this
advantage are still at work. In fact,
the rulnors regarding the Montana
Utah Sugar companys failure to build
factory, can generally be traced and
said to follow u visit to the valley by
an agent or agents Of these interests.
I'VE ask you to join us in helping
to support the Montana Utah Sugar
company. They have come here upon
our request and upon your solemn
pleges. We owe it to them to help
them in their work.
More than that, we owe it to our
selves. Every acre lost to the company
Is loss to the valley. You will help
yourself and the valley most by Civ
ing a loyal word of support to the
Montana utah Sugar company.
I'VE ask that support for them.
Very truly yours.

comes in the war itself, where
