GEYSER JUDITH!' BASIN .4414.0.14.4. „ a-- TIMES Published every Thursday at Geyser, Mont, M. E. Parrish, Editor and Publisher I Entered as second-class matter Nlaroh 25, 1911, at the postoffice at Geyser, Montana, under the act of Match 3, 179. THURSDAY, JUN r 6, 1912 Seven States Special Louis W. Hill and a large delega- tion of Twin City business men, who were on their way to the Seattle De- velopment Congress, stopped at Great Falls Monday evening, where they were the guests of the Chamber of Commerce. The party from the Twin Cities traveled in a special train over the Great Northern, the train being! known as the \Seven States Special.\ Among the innovations presented by the boosters on this trip was the pub- lication of a daily newspaper aboard the train. The editorial announcement reads in part as follows: 'The only daily newspaper in the world that is printed on a railway train. It is issued morning and. evening from a printing plant installed in a baggage car aboard the Great Northern's 'Seven States Special' which is carrying the Twin City jobbers to the coast on the longest trade extension trip ever taken in the United States by a representative body of business men.\ Bill Is Passed (Continued from page 11 was made without regard to the pro- visions of this act.' \The conference report leaves un- changed the two important features of the 'bill as it passed the house, the pro- vision for a three-year homestead and for a five months' leave of absenne in each year for homestead settlers. The amendment relative to the leave of ab- sence was made with a view of mak- ing the character of the leave and the conditions under which it should be exercised, clear. The amendment re- quiring citizenship tinder commuted entries uniform with the requirement under other entries was made at the suggestion of the secretary of the in- terior. The bill provides a definite and uniform minimum requirement of cultivatien applicable to all homestead entries except reclamation entries and Kinkaid entries in Nebraska, with re- gard to which the law as to cultivation remains unchanned. The effect of the provision opon entries under the en- larged homestead act amounts to a reduction by one-half of the area of cultivation now required.\ Will Celebrate the Fourth Stanford World: The several com- mittees selected to work out the details, of Stanford's Fourth of July celebration are rapidly concluding their work and positive assurance can now be given that this city will celebrate in a manner consistent with both its own reputation 'and the patriotic significance of the oc- casion. No half way measures or things half done are in and way connected with Stanford's already well matured plans I for the holiday demonstration.. The pleasing report made by the finance committe is sufficient proof that funds will not be lacking to secure special fea- tures and attractions and the committee on arrangements are preparing to utilize the money supplied for features that will establish a new precident for cele- brations in the Basin. County Commissioners Back on the Job The Cascade county commissioners who resigned on account of a recent decision of the supreme court of this state regarding the liability of county commissioners and road supervisors in cases for damages resulting from de- fective highways, have reconsidered i their resignations and are once more on the job, since a veversal of the decision . referred to by the same tribunal at lid- i ena last week.

Make your time worth $400 for the coining few weeks and we will guarantee to give you Athe assist- ance possible and aid you in any way that we can. The question on all sides is, HOW CAN WE DO IT? The answer is exceedingly simple. A newspaper's circulation and subscription list is its life. 1Vithout a complete circulation and subscrip- tion list, there can be no successful newspaper for the simple reason that the advertising would not be beneficial to the advertiser, hence we would receive very little money on our advertising contracts, because we did not reach the homes of the people who are interestsd in the upbuilding of this great state and who are spending their dollars with our merchants and business men for the goods vvhich they are advertising and offering for sale through the columns of this paper. Every business man is interested in making this a bigger and better state. They are also interested in the practical development of every foot of farming country, for the simple reason that as every' section of the country develops its natural- wealth, that. section of the country becomes safer and bigger and better from a business standpoint for enery man, woman and child who resides therein. We do not expect to make a dollar on this contest this year and perhaps the next, but the benefits derived by its and the inhabitants by our increased circula- tion will be untild and we will he years ahead in subscriptions and we will give more and better news and carry better advertising in our coltunns than heretofore. Join this campaign for a better and bigger newspaper and a more successful state than anywhere else.
