morning proclaimed the opening of
the annual auction sale of property

Inside the Office a dozen men sat

land and improvements to be put on

In buying" a piece of property the
bidder pays only the tax due, plus the
penalty of l per cent month since

which he must hold until March IA,

original owner may redeem his prop

On March IA, 1924. If the PROPERTY

owner pays up. According to Off
Gals of the tax Office, the men who
attend the sale take the property on
which they will be most liable to eff
feet a settlement.
Proof was furnished yesterday of
the fact that much property is sold
each year because the owners have
completely forgotten that they did
not pay up in May, when real estate
taxes are due.
On Saturday and Sunday The Star
appealed to property owners to find
out before the sale whether their
1921 taxes were paid. AS a result
the tax Office was crowded all day
yesterday with persons who were in
doubt and were eager to settle up.
1t is believed that if the tax Of

addresses of property owners and

settlement in large percentage of
cases.
The collector endeavors to serve

not been able to reach all parties.
The tax sale will continue all this
week, so many lots being taken up
each day. according to numerical
order. The low numbered lots are
being sold first. There still is time

factor in American history
SPOTLEss TOWN

At the first signs of spring there is usually the awakening of
ambition to get the unsigntly accumulaJIons OF winter somewhere
else. Even the most lndoient and easy going OF householders feel
the urge to sick up a httie around the premises and on the whole
rather enjoy fusslng around with a rake and wheelbarrow. Ex-
perlence, however, teaches that in community life we always have
the Stacker with us and that it takes something more than indi-
vIdual effort to make a proper showing in community neatness.
In line with their avowed policy OF becoming an active factor
in community life, the local post OF American Legion has taken up
the subject OF a cleanup day" in Belt, and IL enthusiasm counts
Tor anything they VIII undoubtedly put it over with a rush. The
principal cause Tor the necessity OF united effort IN a cleanup cam
paign is the nonresident property owner whose vacant lot is too
OfJen used by careless and indoent nelghbors for a common
dumping ground. In a community effort, such as planned by the
Legion, these unslgnty eyesores will be properly cared for.
Few towns IN the state possess the natural beauty of Belt TO
begin with and with the exercise OF a proper civic pride none can
excel it. Nature has provided an abundance of shade trees and
shrubbery. The Improvement committees of the various city
councils have made sporadic attempts to beautify the boule-
Yards by tree planting with Indifferent success and much more
could be done along these lines with profit. AT present, however,
the finances OF the city government are at a low ebb and the city
council cannot be expected to do much along these lines for some
years to come. Nevertheless, there is no question but they would
cheerfuLy grant permission to any owner to plant trees on the
abuttlng their property, IN fact we are positive they
would encourage any move in this direction.
As usual, we have gotten off the subject slightly, as we never
can think of civic improvement without treeplanting. 1t is a
hobby of ours-that is, the encouragement of it-for a treeless
town in our estimation, is a dismal place of abode. The coming
campaign, which, we believe, is to begin on Arbor day, May 8, is
going to be a whrlwind of effort in Kidding the alleys, streets and
vacant lots of Belt of a vast and eye-fnling store of tin cans, dis
carded Junk and rubbish and putting them where they belong, on
the city dump-Me expect to see Belt made over, renovated and
a model for the ages as the real spotess town of the universe.

GENERAL GRANT

Appropriate ceremonies and the unwilling of a statue com
memorating the one-hnudredth anniversary of the birth OF General
U. S. Grant last Thursday, bring memories to the writer OF an IN
cident which occurred nearly 40 years ago. The Northern Pacific
railroad was completed in 1893, the occasion of the meeting OF the
construction crews at Gold creek being celebrated by a gathering
of many stockholders of the road, a few notables and a sprnkLng
of natives to witness the driving of the golden spike. The pro
gress of the party to this event was made by special tram when
made many stops enfoute at points OF interest. AT Greycm1,
then located on the Grow Indian reservation, a thousand or more
members of that tribe had been gathered for thesr annual harvest
dance. although it would probably be difficult to say what con-
stituted their harvest. The excursionsts spent a day there view
ing savage holiday customs, and no doubt 1t was very much OF a
spectacle to most of the party, which was mainly composed OF
German stockholders and their families. The writer was one OF a
party of boys who was attracted to the scene more by the hope OF
getting a glimpse of the notable men who accompanied the ex-
cursion, than by the entertainment provided by the Indians, which
possessed little of novelty in those days.
General Grant was a memebr of the party, also Carl Schunz,
who was or had been secretary of state, and several other prom
inent men whose names have gone from memory. General Grant
remained in the privacy of his car until late in the day, but when
he appeared. walking leisurely toward the crowd, silent, grim, i'm.
p~erturable, the eyes of every Montanan sought him out. There
was no cheering. it didn't seem the proper thing to do-Some-
thing about this grim-visaged warrior appeared to discourage dem
onstrations of that kind. This was the man who had saved the
union, had fought doggedly for unconditional surrender of the foe
and had won, had held the highest office in the nation for two
terms, was recognized as the commanding military figure in the
world and moreover had shown the greatest magnanimity and
helpfuness in the reconstruction OF a conquered people.
Ii was enough honor to merely gaze upon a personality of
such sublimity, but what must a graceless nincompoop who
claimed a slight acquaintance with Grant in former days do, but
herd a bunch of nobodies and gTinning youngsters into a stray
Cling line and introduce them III turn to a calm and bored person
age who vouchsafed a perfunctory word now and then, during the
ordeal. 1t was a blot on the day. done no doubt thoughtIessiy, and
its only possible excuse being that 1t was the only means of ex
pressing our admiration that occurred TO US.
General Grant was not an impressive man physically, nor did
he possess the gift Of oratory. There was nothing spectacular in
his great achievements many~ accomplished by logged peril
nacty. He is overshadowed in history by a greater man of his
own time, Lincoln, but nevertheless. no one who ever saw the man,
or has studied his life, can fail to realize that he was truly a great
