ROAD men SELECTED
BY COMMISSIONERS
Board Names Road Supervisors and
Men for Other Departments
of County Work.

The board of county commissioners
at their meeting Tuesday appointed
road supervisors, engineers, truck
drivers and other employees for the
year. These men will be in charge
of road construction and maintain
ance.
Men have been appointed for the
work who have been in the employ
of the county in past years, who are
familiax with the work and can carry
on maintenance of roads with the
best results at the lowest cost. There
will be a considerable amount of
maintainance to be carried on dur
ing the year, on roads constructed
in the past. With the change OF
method adopted, which the commits
sionerS believe will reduce the cost
per mile of keeping the highways in
good condition for travel, Gallatin
county will be assured of good roads
A reduction in cost of the road
work will result, due to general re-
duction OF wages for the men in the
road work department. In setting
, the wages for the men of various
crews to operate during the year, th'
commissioners concluded the pay fo1
this work could be made somewha
lower than in previous years, thus
saving the county quite a sum o
money. Following are the supervis
ors and engineers appointed, and tn

CITY license CASE
TO SUPREME court
Injunction Secured by II. H. Trent
DissOlved.-Will Take 1t to
Higher Court.

Judge ". E. Carroll, of Butte, sitting
in the district court for Judge 3. B.
Law, who is IN Helena, last Friday
dissolved the injunction secured a
short time before by H. H. Trent
against the city of Bozeman, restrain
ing the officials of the city from col
lecting an occupation license from
him.. Mr.. Trent had appeared in the
district court about two weeks pre-
vious and filed a complaint In which
he contended the license was unfair,
unnecessary, and that the city had no
legal right to collect it. The plaintiff
had asked for an injunction, which
had been granted, pending hearing
April 2. Attorney w. Z. Kelley, of
Deer Lodge, represented Mr. Trent,
and City Attorney Aitken had entered
a demur to the complaint, stating the
license was collected under an amend
ed ordinance and that it provided for
the payment of all classes Of Occupa-
ton within the city for police and
health department maintenance.
Presenting the city's side Of the
case, City Attorney Aitken stated the
reason for the ordinance, conSenGne
that the order issued restraining the
| city from collecting the license from
Mr.. Trent had the effect of placing
the city in a position where it could
not proceed with its business of col

best interests of the city and public
policy, and outlined what he believes
was the proper procedure for any per
son to follow in oposing the right o.
I the city to collect it.
Attorney Keeley, representing Nh
Trent, stated the ordinance was no
enforceable, due to the fact that
was but an amended ordinance, uu

and paid into the general fund Of tn

new DEPOT Will BE-
BUILT IN BOzEMAN
NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD
TO ERECT NEW PASSENGER
DEPOT HERE DURING THE
SUMMER.
MODERN STRUCTURE
Plans Now Being Drawn to Give Sta
tiOn at BOzeman Thoroughly
Modern Structure.

A new passenger depot for the
Northern Pacific railroad at Bozeman
is a certainty, according to a COM
munication received by J. A. Harader,
manager for the Bozeman Chamber of
Commerce, from President Charles
Donnelly. In the letter, Mr.. DON
nelly stated the company realized the
necessity of improving the CONDITION.
of the station at BoZeman, and that
plans were now being made for re-
modelling the present depot wnereDy
it will be changed to a thoroughly up
to date structure.
The Northern Pacific has had the
depot proposition under cOntempla-
ton for long time and had decided
some time ago that there IS a need
Of more and better facilities here for
handling the large passenger business
in Bozeman- The company does not
! feel it necessary to tear down the
| present depot and rebuild a new one,
feeling that the present structure is
substantial enough to be remodeled,
and that it can be done without in
any manner depreciating the service
which the company desires to give.
The present building, according to
the plans under consideration, will be
so changed in the interior as to give
the public waiting room accommoda-
tions, for men and women, equal to
that found in any other depot along
their line. 1t is planned to make the
change as soon a final arrange
ments can be completed, so that by
the end of the Sear there will be a
p practically new depot open for the use
Of travellers.
;. Under the plans there viii be tiled
= floors, and walls, new lighting fixty
ures Of modern design and new seat
, ing facilities planned TO care rOr
heavy passenger business. The wait
{ ing rooms will be enlarged and there
l will be many convenience provided,
not now available. The office OF the
[ cashier will also be remOdeled, max
, ing it more convenient for ticket-seIL-
1 ing as well as easier for travellers 70
E purchase tickets. The cramped con-
: dition now in evidence will be elimin-
T ated.
; The citizens of Bozeman have been
desirous for many years of seeing q
more modern depot here, and the
Chamber of Commerce took up the
e question of a new depot with the
& Northern Pacific some time ago
e There has been a great amount Ot
n correspondence over the subject with
g the company at all times expressing
q a desire to replace the present struct
/ ure with a better and more appropri
n ate depot. Due to the war conditions

&c ately following it, the company founG
a it impossible to carry out the wish o
? Bozeman to build better and mor'

There has been an easing up OF I'm

ot ton the past year, and with this bet

SUIT OF INJURIES RECEIVED
SATURDAY IN UNFORTUNATE
ACCIDENT.
DRIVER EXONERATED
Boy Told Parents He Was Thrown
Under Wheels of Truck by
Passing Auto.

Wilbur Nunroe Nelson, 8-year-old
son of Fred and TirZah BreSSler Nell
son. died at $40 Tuesday morning at
the Deaconess Hospital, as a result
OF internal injuries caused by the
accident last Saturday afternoon,
when the boy was run over by the
wheels of a large truck. The accI-
dent occurred on Main street, IN front
OF the Courier office.
When the boy was picked up after
the accident he was taken into the
Courier office, where he was exam
ined at once by DR.. Jump, who was
the first doctor to arrive on the scene.
Or. Jumps examination showed the
boy to be seriously injured and he
suggested that he be taken at once
to the hospital. A taxi was called
to the Courier office and the boy was
taken home instead of to the hospl-
tsi.
The boy was returning from the
Golden Rule store, where he had gone
on an errand for his mother. With
the package under his arm, he started
for his home at COS Mendenhall. His
father is a driver at the BOn-Ton
Bakery, and had told the boy that ne
might ride with him down to the
depot.
When Wilbur reached the corner OF
( Main and Wilson, he started to cross
the street. According to his owl
story, the fender of an automobile

AS the truck passed over the LITTLE

accident had occurred. He stoppe
the truck immediately and rushed t.
where the boy was lying on th'
ground. He picked him up and car
ried him into the Courier office
where DR.. Jump, who happened to b
passing by, made the first examlna
ton. He found the boy to be suffer
ing from serious internal injuries an

that of his little nephew.
Lester asked to be taken HON
