l12 delegates will be elected.
Out of the 468 delegates elected so
far, Roosevelt has 255 either instructed

banking heavily on gathering in a siz-

DELEGATES REPORT
OF CONVENTION

Marshall Murray, delegate from the
local Commercial Club to the annual
meeting of the T. r. Highway Assn,
held at Havre, on February 9Th, re-
ports the largest attendance ever held
at such a meeting. More than $50 of
ficers. delegates and persons inter-.
ested in the association were present.
The work of the meeting was largely
that of maintaining the organization
and of developing a program of &C
tivities for the ensuing year. AT the
first assembly. President G. M. Moss,
of Whitefish presiding. o. S. Warden,
chairman of the Montana State High
way Commission, was the principal
speaker of the morning. Having lately
returned from Washington, D. c., Mr.
Warden was able to give first hand
the problems faced by the highway
commission in its 1882 program. Fed
eral appropriations for roads seem des-
tined for a material cut, in CONGRESSES
effort to reduce the nations budget.
Any material cut will effect Montana,
and necessarily those projects on the
west end of the T. r. Highway in
Montana. However, the Libby-Tro
section of the Highway being forest
highway, will receive $100,0OO00 for
improvement this year, and tentatively
another s100,OO0OO next year Three
committees were appointed by Pres
ident Moss: the resolutions committee;
the auditing committee; and the NOM
mating committee. Mr.. Murray was
appointed on the resolutions commit
tee, while Mr. Henry Brink, director
of the association, served ON the NOM
mating committee.
The afternoon session took up the
reports of the committees, all being
adopted by the assembly. Of primary
importance was the resolution which
pledged the associations support to
the completion of the approximately
10 miles of unirnproved road on the
r. r. Highway in western Montana,
lying mostly in Lincoln county. There
were speakers from Minneapolis. Mimi
and Minot, N. Oak. representing re-
spectively the United States Chamber
of Commerce and Greater North Da-
kotans, Inc. Of special interest was the
statement of Mr.. Miles, the United
States Chamber of Commerce repre-
sentative, that in his opinion, in light
of the present high rate of taxation
everywhere, the only way funds for
the further improvement Of highways
in the United States could be secured
advantageously was through savings
made in governmental agencies, espec-
tally by consolidation.
Mr. Moss was reelected president of
the Association for 1882.
The final assembly was at dinner
given by the Havre Chamber of Com
merce. The splendid treatment afforded
by Havre and its Chamber of Com
merce is commended by MIR. Murray
