Brooks re turned Wednesday evening from Cut Bank whore ho went the first of the week in response to a telegram stat­ ing that there were several cases of smallpox in town. Ho found that George H.

Mr. Conrad informs a repre- rosentative of this paper that the work of extending their irrigation ditch to tho now town of Pondora will bo commonccd in a shoit timo, and that the new townsite will bo surveyed and platted witbin a few weeks. Everybody tolls us that times aro good and money plenty. That being the case wo wonder why it is wo do not receive more in tho way of returne from tho big bunch of statements sent out a couplo or three weeks ago. Wo believe it negligence moro than any­ thing else, and wo are again con­ strained to invito you to step up to the Captain’s desk and settle. These promises are all right when kept, but wo find it impossible to pay our bills on other people’s unkopt promisos. Real money is tho stuff that talks in no uncertain tone. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. McKnight, of Kalispell, formerly of this city, and Miss Emma Devine have returned from Salt Lake. They report having a glorious time.
