Picturesque Days ot the West Recalled by the Passing of Saloons
 There.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED
Several of the Large Brew cries Will Make Ice and Plan to Dry Veg
 etabIeS.

| HELENA, Mont, Dec. 26. - State wide prohibition goes into effect in Montana at midnight of December 3l, this year. With the passing of the saloon there will disappear one of the picturesque institutions Of the West. At one time the saloon was an important feature in the soclal life of the hardy pioneers of the Treasure State.
 In the early days when men were blazing the Western trails, the sa- loon followed them and, as a rule, was among the first industries to set up and transact business in the com munity With a canvas for top and a board bridging two boxes for q bar, hospitality at so much drink was dispensed to the argonauts.
 As communities prospered the own CT of the saloon or half way house waxed prosperous in proportion. The 5arkeeper's was a strenuous life, for those who sought cheer he dispensed included miners, cowboys, Indian llSulCiSy CdtilCHlOh, ShCCPAiSii, 'NC renegade and the ne'er do well. Re volvers more often than not, were
 the arbiters of disputes. The bar keepers armament lay on the bar within handy reach and in full sight of the perhaps too ebullent customer to remind him that there were limits within which he must confine his celebration.
 Cowpunchers, after months on the prairies looking after cattle, free of restraint and their pockets full of money rode into town scarcely dis cernable in a cloud of dust, punctu ated with the flash of fire and re- port of revolvers. Like a tornado they swirled up to the front of the saloon. refined their ponies back on their launches and sometimes rode in through the swinging doors. These were profitable days for the barkeep- CT, but he must needs be a diplomat if his place remained intact.
 Hard on the heels of the saloon man came the gambler with the tools of his trade Then followed the dance hall adjunct which brought with it the orchestra" such as it was, or the automatic musical ma chimes All were part and parcel of the saloon.
 Some of the modern saloons in the States larger cities were elaborate in their fixtures, furniture and deco rations Until few years ago Butte had a buffet whose entire floor was inlaid with imitation dollar coins, entirely natural in appearance.
 Bartenders in the State with oth CT saloon employees, number about five thousand at the present time. A large percentage of saloons will continue in business, either with soft drinks or lunch, or both; or as bowl ing alleys, pool halls, or shooting galleries, and it is thought most of the saloon employees will be retained while the experiment is being tried
 Several of the larger breweries will turn to making artificial ice Others, it is claimed, will dry veget ables.

The German lie has unmistakable

grievous wrong inflicted on the Amer

1t tends to set the people against war
