the destruction Of property in an
East Main street restaurant, and two
with obtaining articles of merchan-
disc under false pretenses.
George Newton, a fine appearing
professional cowboy, with long stage

every one of the big camps in Won

who, together with his wife, returned
to Bozeman Tuesday morning from a
tour of the park by way of the West
Gallatin canyon.
Mr.. Daugherty said that the knocks
given the "Gallatin Way" were so
raw and far-fetched that he and his
wife decided to take that route in or
der to satisfy themselves Of either
the truth or falsity of the reports.
They were so pleased with the con-
dition OF the entire road as well as
the wonderful mountain scenery all
through the canyon, that Mr.. Daugh-
ertv decided to visit the Courier Of

against the knockers who for some

entrances that the West Gallatir

a. B. Smith, passenger traffic
manager for the Northern Pacific II
announcing the selection of Decem-
Der for montana Month" stated that
winter months are the most desirable
for an advertising campaign # this

will be placed on plans TO reach pros

that farmers have more time 70 reaC
and attend meetings in the wintel

so felt that Montana could capitalize
