PLEASANT VIEW HAS
Community MEETING

There was a community gathering
of neighboring farmers wives and
young folks at the Pleasant View
School house on the evening of jan
uary 25th, for the purpose of dis
cussing topics that are of interest in
that neighborhood and county, class
ification of land and the cutting of
the county again. There vas a lively
discussion of both those topics. AS
to the justice of the classification of
land in McCone county, the general
opinion of those present was that
they are being treated unfairly in
the north end of the county. Howev-
er the farmers at the meeting held to
the opinion that the present board OF
county commissioners in McCone
county will be disposed to give them
a fair deal if matters are brought to
the commissioners in the right light.
One of the county board was pres
ent at the meeting. The Pleasant
View farmers want a land classical
ton that is fair to everyone but feel
that the present classification does
an injustice to their community.
In regard to the matter of a re-
division of McCone county, it was
decided to take the matter up with
the representative and seek their CO.
