can speak of its problems with au-
thority. The Courier as the spokes-
man Of the community, is ever in
terested in the welfare and prosperity
Of it's home community, and during
the coming weeks we will discuss the
cause and the cure Of what ails US
if aIment there be-such as the mail
order menace, etc. @
On another page you viii find an
%entire page devoted to local business
men-yodr partners" 1t would be
impossible to secure space in this ad
for every business man in the cOmmI-
nifty. However, during the next
month or so, when these pages are
running, you will find many other
advertisements scattered throughout
The Courier, and these should have
your careful perusal as well. Our
advertisers are business men Of Boze-
man, who have the confidence Of the
community and who have confidence
In the city's future; they must have,
or they would not back their faith
in this place with the investments
that they have made, and pay heavy
taxes on these investments besides
spending large sums each year to
maintain the establishments that
stand before you and everybody else,
here and beyond our limits, as monn-
ments to their implicit confidence in
Bozeman and the Gallatin valley.
In every movement that has the
fpublic benefit for its aim they r the
leaders. As has been pointed out
their investment is here, so theirs IS
not a divided allegiance. Everything
they have is staked on the future of
their city, and with their city they
will rise or fall.
Has Splendid Future.
No community that we know Of 50
much deserves this confidence as our
own home city. Our merchants are
united for the common good. They
are working for the interest Of all
who call this city "hOme." Cash is
the motor that will make BOzeman
forge to the front. But net in the
! way you think. You are not asked to
I part with your money. Not the cash
. that comes out Of your pocket, but
the cash that stays here is what will
p build up this community.
! How is that?
Buying from home merchants.
