"0uNTY SEAT
= Fight IS ON

the permanent county seat of
Powder River county T'This
question is one which has been
vexing the citizens Of the new
subdivision of the State and
appearssdikely to cane to a
head at once, through a peti-
tion whieM was brought to
Miles CityNesterday. and sub
mitted to- County Clerk Bob
ling and County Assessor
HERS, for verivcation as re-
CARDS it's signers.
The petition, which wes brot
in by A. J. Smith, storekeeper
at Olive, and said to be. the
owner of the townsite at that
point, reads as follows:
The Honorable John Morris,
Charles Decker and w. H.
PeayA County Commissioners
of Powder River County, Mon
tana.
We, the undersigned inhabi-
tants and taxpayers Of the
said Powder River Comfy and
State Of Montana, in order
that "a permanent County seat
of said County be speedily es-
tablished, an expenses avoid
ed in establishing costly build
ings and equipment at any
point not desired by the in
habitants and taxpayers of the
said County very respectfully
netition your Honorable Board
that special election be held
at the earliest possible date,
to enable the voters and tax
payers to express their prefer
ences as to the permanent To-
cation Of a county seat.
Since Powder River became
a county the commissioners,
under theact of the legislature,
havt been meeting at Broadus
and a town of some consider
able size has been built there.
The attempt to change the To-
cation to Olive will meet with
opposition. The petition was
signed by 1877 residents Of
Powder River county, but this
number is somewhat larger
than that which would be
counted as legal signers, for in
Il few individual cases those
who signed we're not register
ed at the last election nor were
they taxpayers of Custer Coun-
,ty last year.-Miles City Daily
A,ar.
No better location for the
CoAty Seat could be found
than the present one at Broad
us, and we believe that the ef-
forts being putu forth by "a
few of the Olive residents, are
prompted by those who are in
terested in the townsite and
adjacent land owners. But,
however the majority of the
people Of Powder River county
will by a large majority, make
} Broadus the permanent county
seats.
