LAUNDRY AND GAS
STATIONS ARE NEW
BUSINESS HOUSES

Real estate Improvement and
building in Red Lodge has been
active in the past month, with sew
eral new places of business being
put in readiness for operation
here.
By the first if the month it is
likely that Red Lodge is to have
modern laundry. E. M. Morton,
formerly of Glasgow, Mont, is
installing machinery in the Weav-
er garage building on South
Hauser street, which has been re-
modelled to accommodate the equip
ment. Mr.. Morton has been truck
ing supplies and equipment from
former establishment in Glas-
gov, and expects to have his plant
ready for service in a few weeks.
Two gasoline filling stations
have been under contraction here.
One, being built by C. A. Nord-

to Chicago Convention.

Several recent developments and
tendencies in the field of radio and
photography were reported by Mr..
G. w. Cole upon his return from
Chicago, where he attended a con-

turers association last month. The
Improvement of commercial broad

regard to television and home
talkies We're features Of the con-

Talking movies in the home will
be available in a very short time,
according to reports read at the
convention" said Mr.. Cole, land
records and reels for all popular
shows should be procurable here
in Red Lodge at a low cost" Man
ufacturers of portable motion pic
ture cameras have been expert
menting with the idea of producing
a small machine for common use
that would permit the non-profes-
sional movie maker to produce his
own personal talking pictures.
Such a camera has not yet been
perfected, but family-sized pro-
jecting machine has been devel-
oped, with which talking movies
can be shown on a small scale.
This outfit is combination, so to

COUNTY VALUATION
IS SLIGHTLY LOWER
Than 1890 FIGURE
Assessors Annual Report
Shows Reduction in Live
stock and Property Val
ues in Carbon County.

The total cash value of Carbon
county-land, improvements there
to, livestock, and other property
is almost sixteen and a half mil
lion dollars, as indicated by the
annual report of the county asses
sor to the State Board of Equali-
cation. Land and real estate i'm
provements1 are estimated to be
worth $12,485,320, the county's
livestock, $955,910, and all other
property, $2,O27,O75.
The total estimate is lower this
year than it was in 1880 by more
than half a million dollars, due to
the fact that the county's livestock
has been greatly reduced during
the past year, and some personal
property has reverted to the coun-
ty on tax deeds.
In the spring of 1880, 101, 08O
head of cattle, sheep and horses
were reported in the county, with
an aggregate value of S1,363.357.
Before winter this number had
been reduced, as most of the sale
able beef in the country was dis
posed of in anticipation of the fall
ing beef market. The livestock
COW numbers 1858, with valu-
alton of S955,910. There are H.
028 beef and dairy cattle on the
county ranges and farms that are
judged to be worth nearly five
hundred thousand dollars. Pure
bred beef cattle are listed at &c.
044; yearlings, two-year-olds, COM
ing three-year-olds, and stock bulls
at S36,255; and stock and range
cattle at $186,5sO. Dairy cows,
as whole, are worth $83,265.
Sheep have a collective price of
$249,162 and hogs have a total
value of $4,000. Other livestock
is totaled at $1S,59O; included in
this figure is the value of Il sill
yer foxes and number of swarms
of bees. There are $200,505 worth
of horses in The county, more than
half Of these being farm horses.
Improvements on farm, grazing
and industrial lands in the county
are now valued at $1,158,748, a
figure which corresponds closely

PEA CANNERY WILL
BEGIN OPERATIONS
SOON: CROPS DRY

Operations in the factory of the
Red Lodge Canning company are
likely to begin next week, although
the factory will not reach its full
production until later in the mon
tn.
A few men will be put to work
on Monday, said NJ. H. Mann, man.
sger, and more are to be employed
from time to time as required. 1t
is possible that 200 men and wo-
men may be employed before the
end of the summer. Only local help
will be engaged.
The pea crops in the county,
WHICH until recently have been
coming up well, are reported to
be in rather dry condition in
some localities. Some crops have
been slightly burned during the
warm weather, and trouble with
irrigation systems has caused the
parching of others.
Three or -four of the viner sta
lions in the fields have been out of
order, and a shortage of water in
some bitches has caused trouble.
General crop conditions are not
remarkably bad, however, and at
least a normal pea harvest is ex-
pected.

j. M. Anderson of Luther, and G.
G. Bowlen of Red Lodge met on

tory through Cody and pass thro-
ugh Red Lodge today on their way
to Oregon.
Reports that the contracting
company of Morrison, Knudsen.

apparently unfounded. This com

for the construction of the first
highway unit between Richel Lodge
and the Twin Lakes, has not yet
been awarded definite contract.
pending an investigation of the
route by McNutt & Pyle.
The company of McNutt & Pyle.
of Eugene, Ore, placed the low
bid on the section of the road
which is to extend from the Twin
Lakes plateau to the Clark's Fork.
and thence up Soda Butte creek to
Cooke. Their figures, however,
We're considered to be somewhat
low, in consideration of bid made
by the Winston company o. Mime
apolis, who filed a bid Oh the COM
plete route, from Hell Roaring
creek to the Clark's Fork. Con
tracts accordingly Were Withheld
from both the companies of Nc
Mutt & Pyle, and Morrison and
Knudsen.
A revision of the original bid
will probably be made by McNutt
d Pyle, after the recent survey
made of the route, and within a
few days it is expected that con-
tracts will be definitely awarded.
Whether the companies who will
build the road are to sub-let part
of the work to smaller construe-
ton outfits is not yet known, nor
is it possible at this time to pra-
dict the number of men that Will
be employed this summer.

BIOLOGISTS PLAN ROUTES FOR
EXCURSION OF INTERNATIONAL
CONGRESS IN BEARTOOTH AREA
Prof. Phillips of Princeton Visits at Expedition
Headquarters Remarks on Natural Gas
Development in State

Professor H. A. Phillips, chair
man of the Department of Geology
at Princeton university arrived in
Red Lodge last week and joined
the Princeton Geological expedi-
ton which has its headquarters
near Red Lodge.
Members of the Princeton ex-
petition have been continuing their
studies of the mineral deposits,
fossil formations and geological
phenomena in the Beartooth area,
and making arrangements for the
International assembly of geolo-
gists that is to meet here in 1888.
Professor Phillips departed last
Sunday for Billings, from where
he will proceed to Portland and
thence to Hawaii this summer. He
has previously been acquainted
with this area, having been in the
Beartooths in 1900, studying as
bestos deposits; in 1883, as a
young man, he visited Billings
during the time when he located
radium deposits in the mountains
of Colorado. In remarking upon
conditions in this territory, Pro-
fessor Phillips mentioned the nat
ural gas lines that are being ex-
tended into southwestern Mon
tana, saying "The work now being
done to widen the scope of gas
heating should be FASTENED as
much as possible to make this lux
ury available to every city in the
state.'
Dr., W. T. Thorn and Professor
R. M. Field, of the Princeton
group, are making progress in the
compiling of the guide book and
to be used for the In
ternational Congress of Biologists.
Last week DR.. Thorn, with Profess
sors Chamberlain, Butcher, and
Buddington made an excursion
across the Dry Greek region, thr-
ough the Pryor Gap to Billings,
route which will be one of those
scheduled for the 1888 Congress.
One of the interesting formations
located by the party was an aries
ian well in the country west Of
Red Lodge.
Several other trips have been
made under the direction of DR..
Thorn and Professor Field, in Or
der to outline routes for the ex-
to be made in 1888. The
first of these routes includes the
Yellowstone park, the excursion
to enter at Gardiner and pass out
the East entrance. The
second lap Of the excursion ex-
tends from the east entrance
through the Shoshone canyon to
Cody, Wyo., and the third will
bring the party to Red Lodge by
way of the Elk Basin district. The
fourth part is from Red Lodge to
the Beartooth butte and back.
The fifth part makes a swing
around Red Lodge to Switchback
point, past the Natural Bridges to
the Eagle coal mine. The last
section of the excursion passes

STATE BOND ISSUE
DECLARED INVALID
7 BY SUPREME COURT
Construction on Schools and
Other State Institutions
is Postponed Indefinitely.

Construction on state education
al and custodial institutions this
year will be postponed, due to the
decision of the Montana Supreme
Court that the $3,000,000 bond is
sue, voted at the election last
November, is invalid.
Last Monday the court found
that the act which authorized the
issued of the bonds was contrary
to the state constitution. For
three reasons it was rejected: the
act did not create a debt on the
part of the state, but placed that
duty on the shoulders of future
legislative assemblies; the bond
issue was floated for several pur-
poses, rather than for one main,
definite purpose or use; and the
act failed to provide for the levy
ing of tax, leaving that bust
ness to the discretion off the state
Legislature. On these three points
the act was at variance with the
constitution.
The last state legislature had
apportioned the $3,000,000 bond
issue among 13 state institutions,
and plans for construction and i'm
provement on state buildings and
grounds had already been made.
Arrangements had also been made
for the sale of the bonds to the
Spokane Eastern syndicate.
Institutions that were to have
been benefited by the issue were
the State College, with a grant of
$4,000; the Industrial School,
Miles City, with $67105; the Bill
ings Normal school, $232,5OO; the
Northern Montana school, Havre,
$232,500; the Warm Springs hos
pital, $444,500; the sanitarium at
Galen, $233,918; the state peni-
tentiady at Deer Lodge, 35,082;
the Boulder school, $73,470; the
orphans home at Twin Bridges,
SS0,910; the State University,
$112,513; the School of Mines,
$50, 480; the vocational schiol at
Helena, $8,325; the soldiers home
at Columbia Falls, $4,000.
Although there is now little
hope that any improvement can be
made at these institutions, Cover
nor Erickson has said that a tenn
porary structure at the state hos
pital might be erected with money
saved from the regular appropria-
ton. An initiative measure might
be voted upon year from next
fall, which might be means of
securing funds.
State institutions lin generaD
will have to get along as best they
can, said the Governor, until
suitable measure can be passed
that will stand the test of validity
before the state judicial body. M.
A. Brannon, Chancellor of the state
schools remarked on the "exten-
sive study the court gave the act",
and stated that their decision
would be likely to have an unfav-
orable effect on the morale of the
state.

INDUSTRIAL NO. | EXPECTED
TO COME IN AT DRY CREEK

Late yesterday it was expected
Chat the Ohio's Industrial well,
No. /, would come in at a depth
of about 5000 feet. Drilling had
stopped and the we'll crew was
bailing out mud from the bottom
of the bore, expecting the we'll to
blow in as soon as enough mud
and sand had been cleaned out.
Damage to the regular sized bailer
necessitated the use of a smaller
apparatus, which has delayed the
work considerably.
The No. 1 we'll was spudded in
last November, in the Dry Creek
region, and has since been making
a good show of gas and oil.

The little old schoolhouse sees
its last days. Consolation will
make one larger school take the
place of many small schools. That
is necessary in these days of eff
cheney, economy and motor buses
for school children. But it is a
pity.
There was value in the 161, 531
tiny schools scattered over the
country, each with its wood box
outside the door, it's patient teach
er and small group Of children.
The bigger boys that sat outside
on the fence until the last minute,
and swallowed their luncheon
whole to have more time for base
ball at recess" often amounted to
something later on.
At least they could spsll, add,
subtract and divide. They lived In
