BIG SALES ARE
STILL GOING ON
SHERIDAN COUNTY MERCHANTS
PUTTING ON BIG SALES-GET-
TING RESULTS.

The Big Sales at the stores in PIen-
tywood and other points are getting
results and people are coming to
learn that in many instancesf that it
is just as cheap and in most cases
more satisfactory to trade at home.
Many people in Sheridan County are
not aware Of the large and complete
stocks carried by the stores in Plen-
tyWood, and Utmost cases the.fnerch-
ants, are to blame for this condition
Themselves because they refuse to
take the time or to spend the neces-
sary. money in order to get the infor-
nation before the buying public. It
is lssestimated that two dollars are spent
with mail order houses where one is
spent at home, in Sheridan county.
The reason for this is the fact that
the mail order houses go after the
business. The home merchants can
get this money just as soon as they
show that they want it and go after
it. IF merchant does not try TO get
business most people think that he
does not want it and people do not
go where they or their money are
not welcome. The mail order house
tells the buyer what it has to sell:
tells what the article is like, what it
is made of and tells the price, and
asks for the business, and in the eff
fort to get the business extends the
the best terms possible. Many of
the local merchants open up shop
and think that because they know
what they have, that the world knows
about it. Then they wonder why the
money goes to the mail order houses.
It was their own fault in most every
case. The local merchants can get
the cash business if they cut the mar
gin of profit and go after it.
Many of the local merchants are
learning how to get business. There
is Kollman Kompany, who are put
ting on a big sale which ends Satur-
day, December 18th, and that firm is
surely selling the goods. On the last

MONTANA SENA-
TORS Get BUSY
FEDERAL OFFICIAL IS TO HOLD
HEARING IN MONTANA-ASK
CARS FOR STATE.

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator
Walsh and Senator Elect Wheeler
called upon the interstate commerce
commission today to present the COM
plants of shippers from points on the
Great Northern Pacific railroads as to
their inability to secure cars for i'm
perative shipments. Scores of letters
and kilograms have been coming in,
reclting the conditions prevailing i'm
consequence. -
AS q result of the interview, the
commissioners directed Inspector w.
E. Weeks to proceed at once to Mon
tana to investigate and report as to
conditions. He will be at Missoula on
Wednesday, the 9Th.
RAILS CLAIM.
The claim heretofore made by the
railroads to the effect that the embar-
rassment under, which they labor is
due to their inability to secure the re-
turn of their cars from eastern roads
was found from the reports of the
roads and other information available
to be only partially sustained. The
experts of the commission attribute
the delay rather to the slow move
lnent of the car over these lines in
consequence, apparently, of conditions
attributed to the strikes of the shop
men.
WIRE TO GOVERNOR.
Senator Walsh sent today the fol-
lowing telegram to Governor Dixon:
"Interstates commerce commission
directing Inspector w. E. Weeks, who
will be at Missoula Wednesday, to
inquire into and report by wire con-
corning railroad transportation con-
ditions occasioning shortage of cars
and resulting in delays in shipment of
which insistent and widespread COM
plant is made. It is suggested attor-
ney general, commissioner of agricul-
ture and railroad commission get in
touch with him."

When Chester Beiseker arrived

les and converting the money

and had been in Sheriff Collins
possession ever since. Beiseker

and Beiseker was . placed under

the custody of L. J. Onstad for
appearance Monday morning.
Monday morning County Attor-
ney Erickson appeared in JUS
tice Court and moved the dismis-
sal of all of the cases without
prejudice, until after the trial of

by Judge Olson3
