The BOzeman Mercantile Company
Assigns

Wednesday afternoon the Bozeman
Mercantile company made an assign
ment for the benefit Of it's creditors.
The total liabilities are given at $780,
1929, all due to outside parties ex-
cept $2,979.02 due to the Commercial
Exchange bank, which is made a
preferred creditor.
The assets of the firm on August
1, when it filed its statement re-
quired by law with the county clerk,
were $4,000. George L. Ramsey is
assignee, and for the present will
continue the business with the old
employees in charge.
Everyone regrets that the firm
found it necessary to assign in order
to protect its creditors. Had the
weather been half decent this fall the
house could easily have reduced its
liabilities to such an extent as to
have protected itself. But tw
months Of the fall season, when trade
is usually good, have passed anC
farmers r just beginning to gel
their grain on the market. To tel
an eastern creditor just how matters
have been here this fall would only
make him think We were the biggest
liars on the face of the earth.
It is only a QUESTION: of time unit
the Bozeman Mercantile company
will be on its feet again.

SERVING THE COMMUNITY

EGS|TSINE cannot travel about the country withoutbe-
ingstruck by the greatindividuality ofitscites,
IN~kh big and little. IF THERE'S anything which distin-
guishes the average American, it Is his aggres-
IHxe sive loyalty to his own home town.
Sx Therefore, it is not astonishing to find that
every community, save the very smallest, has at least
one voice-the voice of its newspaper. There are nearly
$4,000 such voices in 10000 different communities,
and in their printed columns the spirit of each place
is expressed. These columns focus what may be called
the accumulated town purpose in realizing local ambi-
tons. Whatever they may be, it is through the news
paper that knowledge of community purposes is dis
Seminated and ideas are unified.
Thus, while most vacations are more OF less private, newspaper
publishing is necessarily charged with = public interest. This has been
true from the earliest days. When one Of the first papers in the then
(Iso4 wilderness of Indiana made Its bow, the editor statedits object
to be Ito collect and publish such information as viii give a correct
account of the production and natural advantages of the territory"
In other words, he proudly proclaimed himself a "bOOseer," although
the word had not yet come into vogue. This ideal persists today; it
expresses itself in making the paper not merely a chrOnicIer of the
news, but also a leader IN Organized movements for community bet
torment.

to awaken his city from the spirit of apathy that checked all progress.

cases heard in the local court Tues
day morning were appealed by Or

The first charge to be brought
against Martin was that Of unlaw-
fully threatening an officer. Deputy
Sheriff Arthur G. Robinson told the
court that he had gone with John
Watson In the latter's car over to
Randolph to serve a warrant on per-
sons living several houses beyond
Martins. On their return they de-
clared that Martin rushed out into
the road, threw up his hands to mo-
ton them to stop, and as they did
he began harangue on deputies in
general with especial reference to
those working in this vicinity. He de-
clared that If officer Robinson or any
other deputy attempted to set foot
on his land he Would drop" them.
John Watson, driver of the car Ies-
titled substantially the same. Mar
tin pleaded not guilty but Judge At

him to pay the costs of court and also

been In the cell and that he must
have been responsible for the damage
done.
The evidence presented in the sec

Cotheran, Forrest Brown and Arthur
Robinson went out to Martins place
in Pittston Monday night, but met
him on the road driving Ford
beach wagon. The officers testified
that they had smelled liquor on Mar

he had been drinking. Deputy Rob-
