Ii County Division; Interesting Topic. People of this Vicinity are Decidedly Not in Favor of a Separation from Old Cascade. No Good Arguments for Division. County division discussion is an all obsorbing topic of discussion just .at present with local people, who seem free to express a negative opinion in the matter. The proposition is that a territory east of. Geyser would form itself into, a net county and embrace Geyser • and v inity with a county seat east of here--:„ ! .•9bably at Stanford, with less' advan . '. than this section now en- joys* munty division proposition which tends to separate Geyser vicinity from where it now stands will be, foright bitterly and stubornly. This vicinity is exceptionally favorably lo- cated in the east end of Cascade county, with Grert Falls as the county seat. and just far enough away to be a splendid town, with the county seat fast becomsng a metropolis and whole sale center, with the best of county officers. Why should we complain, every thing to our advantage—County buildings practically paid for and everything in good running order. Move us into a newly created county and new county buildings must be • erected and these must be paid for by the people by taxation and surely tax- es are now high enough, without sanc- tioning the whinis of a few aspiring office seekers. The proposed counties: Richland from Dawson and Custer; Pondera, from Teton; Wheatland, from Fergus, Meagher and Sweetgrass; Phillips, from Blaine Valley; O'Fallon, from . the northeastern part of Custer Lake, from Flathead, NI issoula and Sanders; lanother oqt of Gallatin, Jefferson and ! Madison, with Three Forks as the 'county seat; and another with Augusta as the county seat, out of Lewis and Clark, Teton and Cascade. launch a county proposition, signatures must be obtained of 50 oer cent of the citizens of the region affec- ted. Thirty days after such a petition has been filed, a board of county com- missioners must act upon it and verify it. If the petition is found to be cor- rect, it then becomes the mandatory duty of the board within 14 days to fix the date of holding an election. This cannot be less than 90 days nor more than 120 days from the time the commissiners fix it. If 51 per cent of the voters indorse the new county, it is created. New counties must start with a valu- ation of not less than three million dollars, and old counties must be left with a valuation of not less than five inillions. A Base Ball Ball. On Saturday evening, April 5th, the, base ball enthusiasts have decided to give their annual ball. Our bunch of base ball boys are very enthusiastic this year as Geyser never had a better prospect for a club that will win laur- als for Geyser than they have this year. They are making great preparations for their dance on the 5th and have engaged splendid music for the occa- sion end there will be a good supper served at the hotel. Do not hesitate to buy a dance ticket and all attend and help make the crowd a merry one. ...Geyser School Report. Report of Primary Room for month ending March 28. 1913. No. days taught 20.

After transacting some local business county division was tak- en up and discussed and a vote was taken which was unanimous in favor of County division. We all hope the east part of Cascade county will cast i their lot with us and come into the new county, whether they will or not we hope to soon see a new Counts - formed on this side of the Judith river The people that attended the dance at Geyser last Nlonday evening repoit with a County seat in less than three days travel from us.
