This is the first issue Of the
Polk County News for the year
1920.
For a number of years the News
has been making its appearance
every week, carrying the history
of the everyday life of the town
into the homes of the people who
still dwell in the town or have
gone out into the broader fields.
What songs of gladncss, what
dirges of grief lie buried in that
pile of completed files, as wear by
year it has grown 1t may seem
simple thing to keep this record.
At times you have tossed the
paper aside with the comment
there's nothing in it." But al
ways there has been something in
il that interested some one. The
tvo-line notice of the arrival OF a
baby meant nothing to you, but,
oh: it meant much to someone. A
few lines briefly mentioning the
death of some mothers child may
not have touched you, but, 1t cast
a shadow over a heart that has
never been lifted. You may have
felt no throb of pride in the lines
telling that some boy was making
good in a distant city, but some
BODY cut out the item and laid
Il away between the pages of the
family Bible. Here is the cllpp-
ing of a wedding in the dear, dead
DAYS beyond recall, now yellow
with the years, but tenderly kept
in the little box of relics that was
found after mother had been laid
away.

Manager Hobbins Ready to Take
Chinook Plant When Cleared

Special to The Daily Tribune
Chinook, April 29.-District Manager
Hobbins of the Montana Power COM
pany. located at Great Falls, visited
Chinook Tuesday, meeting with the
committee of the local power company.
The only obstacle which now stands
in the way of the Montana Power com
ness of the local plant, ard several
plans are being considered for evercom-
ing that obstacle. As soon as the debt.
amounting to about ST GOO and repre-,
senting money paid by stockholders and
notes given by the company. can be dis
posed of, the power company is ready
to come to Chinook.
An increase in lighting rates for a
time does not seem feasible. as it
would probably cause dissatisfaction
among consumers, SO that some other
way is to be devised to enable the town
to assume the debt of the present own
ers of the plant.
1t may be possible to bond for this
indebtedness. The legal firm of Norris,
Hurd & Rhoades is investigating the
mater in that light. If bonding is out
Of the question, then some other method
will be used.
The power company is to send an
engineer soon to appraise the overhead
property such as pole lines ana wires:
which it will use and some manner OF
disposal of the remainder of the prop
eryt will be made later.
The town is now paying 5,2OO annu-
ally for the pumping Of the city water;
The charges of the power company will
amount to $500. while a saving of
about 81 900 will be made on the street

% cents, as at the present time.
The cost to the town in making the
change, Is estimated at between $4,000
ard $4,000, after the sale of the equip
ment now in use.
Much satisfaction is felt among the
citizens of the town and especially the
stockholders of the plant at the present
stage of the proposed transaction. and
the excellent prospects for the Montana
Power company to come to Chinook.
