ment of the plans for the campaign.
While these plans cannot be completed
until today, they have been developed
far enough to make certain that next
Tuesday, Arbor day, May 3, viii be the
big day when everyone in the city
will be expected to turn out and lend
their aid in ridding the city of all ac-
cumulation Of tin cans. rubbish, dead
grass and filth of all descriptions. The
city will be divided into four districts,
each ward of the city to constitute a
separate district and Kennedy addi-
tion, Coke Oven Flat and French Cou-
lee the fourth district. 1t was decided
that two cash prizes of $3.50 each
would be offered for the best essay
to be written by pupils of the Custer
and High schools, one prize to go 70
each school The rules of this contest
have been made by Supt. j. r. Culver
and were announced by each teacher
yesterday. A request was also made
of the school board that the schools
be closed for part of Arbor day, the
students giving the time TO the move
ment. At Tuesday evenings meeting
If the board the request was granted,
and as a recompense for their efforts
each student who is able to show that
he has done a certain amount of clean
up work will be given free ticket to

gra'n particularly pleasing to young
folks for that day.
" nile K has not yet been definitely
decided. il is expected that all busi-
ness houses of the city will also close

day that the proprietors and em-
ployees may also join in the work.
Those stores and others having trucks
are to be asked to, donate their use in
the removal Of the gathered refuse,
while other business places will be
asked to make small cash contribu-
tions TO cover the cost of conducting
he campaign, the limit being set at
$500.
It is not expected that the work can
be completed in one day, but it is be-
lieved. that with everyone cooperating

Double Marriage
of Local Couples

Two marriage licenses appearing
IN Great Falls papers, one issued Fri
day and the other Saturday, have Gre
ated considerable interest hereabouts.
The first was issued to N. r. Wilson,
Jr., %, and Agnes II. Wells, %, both
Of Belt, and the second to r. X. Wells,
2l, of Belt, and Bernice Sutherland,
10, Geyser.
The marriage of these two couples
has commanded interest because of
the rather unusual circumstances sur
rounding them. Late last summer r.
X. Wells and his sister, accompanied
by another young man, Tom Foley,
drove into Belt in a car bearing
Connecticut license plate, announced
that they were in search of a ranch;
that Miss Wells had recently inher-
tied considerable sum Of money, the
amount being put at between $4,000
and 500, 900, and that she was engaged
TO marry young Foley. For awhile all
went well, many ranches were looked
over, but none were found TO suit.
Gradually the young people became
acquainted with the young people of
the city; Wilson was frequent mem
Der OF the party, and finally it became
noised about that he had beaten
FoIey's time" Developments con-
firmed the rumor, and Foley returned
to his home in the east while Wilson
drove Nash roadster about, pres
ent from his fiancee.
Miss Sutherland, who had come here
from Geyser to attend High school,
rooming at the same place where the
Wells had apartments, soon became a
of the party. Then the Wells
and Wilson decided that as soon as the
roads were passable they would leave
by car for other parts. Last week
they packed their belongings into the
cars and Friday took their departure.
Miss Sutherland had been taken to
her home by her father, but returned
10 Belt and was picked up by an auto
mobile here and taken to Great Falls
to join the party, the second license
being obtained and Saturday morning
at 10 o'clock double marriage was
performed by the Rev. Christoph Kel-
er at the Great Falls Episcopal
shurch. uniting the two couples, and
hey announced that would leave
shortly for the state of Washington to
make their homes.

New Mayor and Council
Seated Monday Evening

Of $84, 1860, with only $4,817.49 cash
money in all funds TO carry on the
work. The report divided the indebt-
edness into three classes, namely:
registered warrants, S12,6S2.28. all of
which with the exception of $4,000,
represents unpaid warrants on the
regular working funds of the city;
special improvement warrants,
amounting to $49, ,574.32, and outstand-
ing bonds of $4,000.
The payment of principal and inter-
est on the special improvement district
warrants and the bonds are cared for
through special levies against the
property affected, but the registered
warrants against the regular funds of
the city must be paid from money re-
ceived through the general city levy.
A study of the report shows that these
working funds received from all
sources during the year sl5,782.34;
'thst It required with the most eco
nomical administration Belt has en-
joyed in many years s14.819.37 TO con-
duct the bessiness of the city and pay
off some Off Nthe Indebtedness against
certain Of these funds and that there
is a cash balance in all the working
funds of only s3,305.19. This. how
evergis a gain Of 1862. 81 over tine total
amount in the funds year previous.
To make the problem greater, there
is little doubt but what the revenue
of the city from taxation will be con-
siderably decreased this year through
the cutting Of valuations. Then there
is the mater Of delinquent taxes that is
sure to come up, still more decreasing
the amount Of revenue that the city
should receive. From which it can
be seen that the new council have no
easy sailing before them at least so
far as finances are concerned.
The council will hold it's regular
first of the month meeting this even
ing at which time it is expected Mayor
Millard will make his appointments for
the coming year and name the stand
ing committees Of the council.

Because of last Fridays heavy rain,
which left the roads practically inn

it's arrival shoots over the trap will

now at work trying to select site to
install the trap, and while several are
in view the one most favored lies

Work
Nearly Completed

Ahead of last years time by 30
days, the work or assessing property
in Cascade county, except for few
outlying districts, is virtually COM
pleted, it was announced Friday by
Assessor Harold M. Mady. Appraise-
ment of city property has been COM
pleted and with the filing of returns
from Castner Coulee and the rural dis
tricts about here the work will be at
an end. Local Field Deputies Schuy-
ler Armstrong and Herbert Barber,
have covered much of their large ter
ritory, but still have considerable left.
Armstrong is working in the Tiger
Butte section and Barber along the
Missouri river and Highwood bench,
where most of the territory yet TO be
covered lies. Both are finding the
roads very heavy and progress slow
because of this fact.
Assessor Mady is not yet able to
determine how much the county will
lose this year in valuation. Compari-
son with last years valuation will not
be possible until all rural assessment
figure have been compiled. Mr.. Mady
looks for a big slump in rural valu-
ations because of the fact that he in
structed his field men to reduce land
values in accordance with their best
judgment He ventures the estimate
that the county will drop close to ST.
900 900 in valuation.
Notice was served Sunday on all
taxpayers that May 10 will be the last
lay for the automobile owners to ap-
prise the assessors office that they
Jailed to include their machines in
heir list of assessable property.
After that date, County Assessor
Mady proposes to assess automobiles
hat have escaped assessment at 10
lime their true and full value.
An advertisement carrying this 4
warming last year brought good re-
'ults, according to Mr.. Mady, one day
resulting in reports on 25O automo- I
,iles The assessor office assessed I
me machine last year at 10 times its
,alue.

May Lose
Much Valuation

Through the Land Bulletin, issued
by the Jeremiah Collins Co., of Wash
ington, ID. c., County Assessor Harold
M. Mady learns that the supreme
court of the United States has just
handed down decision to the effect
that reclamation homestead is not
subject to taxation until perfected and
final certificate has been issued. On
many. il not all, projects the land has
been taxed for county and state pur-
poses after submission of final proof,
but under this decision such levies are
illegal. This is an item Of Importance
to many settlers on government pro-
jects.
The decision, IL confirmed, and
there is little question Of that, would
tear a large hole in the tax roll of
Cascade county, and throw out thous-
ands Of acres of land now assessed ON
the Sun River project.
Reclamation land in Cascade county
has been taxed on first proof, at from
$40 10 $50 per acre where not yet irri-
gated, and s65 irrigated. Mr.. Mady
is of the opinion that in the neighbor-
nocd Of 65 per cent of the land taxed
mas final proof issued, and the decision
would throw this land out for taxation
Mr. Mady asked the attorney general
through the county attorney, for an
opinion upon the taxation of the recla-
nation land some time last fall, but
las not yet had the point covered by
my definite information received.
The decision is one which means
rlarh for Cascade county and would
,e a financial jolt on the face Of it.

The present road over the hill car
ries one Of the steepest grades in the
county making the hauling of heavy
loads impossible only under the best
Of road conditions, and is very danger
ous. The proposed route, it is@said, will
have an average grade Of q " per cent
and will not exceed SIX per cent at any
point. About two and one-half miles
" new road would be required.
The last time this road was under
