lip .- m- - r ; THE MAY JOURNAL Volume 2. Ismay, Montana, Friday, Aug. 4, 1911 . Number 20 Found Not Guilty. Gordon V:in 1 -ri oort, living on Pen nell Creek, wa* trieil in Justice Court here Saturday afternoon, on a charge of having used insulting, abusive and threatening language, the com p laint being sworn to by A. C. Long, to whose wife the alleged offensive lan guage was used. The case was given a jury trial, Mr. Vandervoort appear ing in behalf of h is son, and Mr. Long for the state. The facts brought out in the evi dence were substantially these: T h a t on July 27th, the defendant and a com panion, John O'Donnell went to the Long home and inquired for Mr. Long and-was told by the plaintiif’s wife that he was not a t home. Mrs. Long testified that offensive language was then used by the defendant. The de fendant testified, as did his witness, O'Donnell, th a t no violent, insulting or threatening language was address- id to the lady. Upon such evidence he jury were called upon to determine he guilt or innocence of the defend- int. They were out only a few rain- ltes, bringing in a verdict of “ not ruilty.” In listening to the trial, it was easy ■o determine t h a t bad blood has exist- d between the parties for some time >ast and that the present difficulty vas merely the first redl breaking out •f the trouble. Baker Sentinel: If you want to get pointers, on how to raise potatoes, con sult with E. H. Molstad, a Scandinav ian farm e r residing south of Baker. He plowed two acres of ground five inches deep, planted his potatoes and placed a manure mulch over the patch He expects a big crop. He brought • n some “ m u rphies” yesterday for which he received five cents a pound, hut says it does not pay to sell pota- ■ oes now at that price, as there are -o many small ones that m u st be thrown out. ^ We Get A Boost. We received a copj this week of the first number of the Dakota-Mon- tana Trade Journal, a monthly period ical of commercial interest, published in Aberdeen. It is a real live wire and is just what has been needed, to cover this western scope of country in an interesting and comprehensive manner. We hope our buisness men will see fit to add their names to its growing list. Among its news items we noted the following: “Traveling men claim th *re are more boosters to the sipi ire fool in the town of Ismav, Montan th in in any other community its size between Aberdeen and the coast. Nature has been kind to the town, in providing good building stone, plenty of timber and water and clay suitable for the m anufactuie of brick.\ Now, if the editor of the Dakota- Montana Trade Journal were here, we should be greatly tempted to implant a kiss upon his noble pate, for h a th he not spoken of truth? Yea, verily! While our little burg is small, it has had a gradual and substantial growth, a,nd every business house, however large or small, is well built, and the books of the county assessor will show th a t the assessed valuation of the property within the limits of our little town is larger than that of Terry, Baker or any other place in Custer county except Miles City, And these towns refered to are three or four tim es the size of Ismay. In a large measure this nourishing condition has been brought about by the Commer cial Club of Ismay, the “ boosters” whose eternal hustle and intelligent effort has made Ismay and its energet ic citizens a live topic of conversation among the traveling Salesmen and other transient visitors, who a re in a position to know, hence to make com parisons. More building has been done in Is- may and vicinity this summer than in any town in the county aside from the county scat, nearly $10,000 Worth of building operations having been fini-1.- ed or in process of completion a t th,^ writing, and were you to come im > our towD, you would be able to s , right down and “ W atch Ismay Grow The crops throughout this section, while damaged some by the drouth, are for from being a failure, and the business outlooks appears very bright In this connection, we wish to s:n that there is a good opening for s< > - eral different lines of business, ar.ii among the enterprises needed are: Hardware and furniture stores, pi >- duce store, creamery, grain elevato -. feed mill, hotel, steam laundry, brit i-- yard, jewelry store, etc. There a over thirty gasoline engines and si . - en or eight steam threshing engin, working in the country tributary <u Ismay, hence the necessity for a we'i- equipped machine shop.

T HAT Montana will have this year a “Bumper Crop”- the largest and best in her history- is a fact beyoiid dispute, and the real significance of this great crop is very far reaching. It means much to the farmer, of eourse, but it means equally as much to the other vo.-.idents a n l to all business enterprises operating within the state, as it affords an opportunity to show to the world that Montana offers advantages to the homeseeker and investor that cannot be found in any other state. Realizing the importance of this opportunity the Chicago, Milwaukee <V Puget Sound Ry.. and the Chicago, Milwaukee A- St. Paul Ry., have jointly arranged for the sale of ‘Homeseekers” tickets from Illinois, Iowa. Wisconsin Missouri, Michigan, Nebraska, and Minnesota to all points in Montana on every Tuesday during the months of August* Sept* ember and October instead of only on the first and third Tuesday* of each m onth as heretofore. This is only one of the many ways in which the “NEW LINE\ has takan the lead to help boost and bring the wonderful agricultural resources of the Treasure State to the attention of many thousands who are eager to obtain a home of their own. As all of the residents of the state are interested in the movement inaugurated by this line we feel sure that you will be glad to lend assistance. This you can do very effectiyely by joining us in setting aside Every Saturday during August, Septombor and Octobor as BOOSTER’S DAY The d iy on which you will write to some one or more of your friends out side of the State telling theln not only of the wonderful crops biit of your fine soil chat produces much more than theirs and can be bought for a great deal less. Also tell them about the very low rates in effect every Tuesday during these three months, to all points on the “New Line.” There is no known form of advertising so effective as that of “ personal effort” and the people of Montana have now an unprecedented opportunity of doing themselves And th e ir State great good.
