vb• THE HAR VOL. III NO 28, N TRIBUNE HARDIN, YELLOWSTONE COUNTY, MONTANA, FRIDAY, JULY' it), a. $2.00 PM: YEAR. BRIDGE IS PRAC- TICALLY ASSI RED 1.1 Joint Meeting of Commissioners Resolutions Are Passed to Construct Bridge Over Big Horn Advertised For At a joint meeting of the coun- ty commissioners of Rosebud and Yellowstone counties held at Forsyth on Monday of this week, a resolution was passed to construct a bridge a- ccross the Big Horn river at or near the head gate of the Two Legging canal. The resolution provides that Rosebud county shall bear $8,500 of the expense, Yellowscone not to exceed $10,000. and the Indi- an department will be called on to furnish the $10,000 which they have so many times stated they would give to have a bridge put in at this point. , Bids for the construction of bridge have been called for, and will be recieved up to 12 at noon on the 23rd day of this motth. The Indian department have been notified of the action of the commissioners and asked to take immediate action regard- ing the $10,000 they have pro- mised to the tund. If the depart- ment comes through, which there is little doubt about, the contract for the building of the bridge will be let as wive rtised.st 'mat we are to have a bridge to connect these two wonder- fully fertile valleys there is lit- tle doubt, nd as before -te( 4 . the value of such a structure to Hardin and vicinity can hardly be estimated. The county commisioners have been trying to get this bridge for the past three years, and we believe that their success may be attributed to the persanal efforts of commissioner Burla. Since being on the board, when- ever the bridge question came up Mr. Rurla always pushed the matter to the limit.. Hardin can consider itself fortunate in hav- ing him for a citizen.

WHO WILL THEY BE? $1,300 in Prizes Offered by the Tribune and the W. A. Peden Store For Correct Answers— Who Are the Five Moet Pop- ular Ladies? The ilardin Tribune and the W. A. Peden store's joint Piano voting contest is now in its fourth week. Ten active candidates are in the field, each with.itn eye on one of the five piano prizes that will go to the candidates polling the greatest number of coupon votes by Aug. 27th. The candidates' standings as quoted below is not what they should be if all the votes collect- ed were turned in, which they are not. Fully one quarter of the candidates entered are holding back their votes for the pre- sumed purpose of keeping the other candidates in darkness as to their correct standings. If all votes had been polled, the to- tal would undoubtedly have been double. According to the official count made Thursday, over 50,000 votes were cast during the past week. The contest is making a lot of friends for the Trib - ne and 'the W. A. Peden store, and incidentally it is bringing in a lot of new businese This new business is of course welcome, but better than the business it- self is the knowledge that the _Hardinites are not so slow after all. The interest taken in the contest and the \support given the candidates show that the people of Hardin are. commer- cially alive and true blue, and all they want to prove their take - hold -and -push -spirit is an oppor- tunity. This is the spirit that makes more business and mon- ey in the bank for everybody. And if this same spirit is shown in all undertakings, public and private, that are made by our people, a richer and happier community is the sure and , cer- tain result. Votes once polled and listed are not transferable. No candi- date can drop out aud throw her votes to another contestant. We- malte_thits Stits MeV , P.nlicipatin possible inquiries along this line. Voting coupons cannot pe bur - chased direct at any price. Aside from the free coupons appearing every Thursday in the Tribune, .only way by which piano ibtes can be obtained is through subscriptions to the Hardin Tri- bune, 1000 votes for each dollar on subscriptions, and through trading at the W. A. Peden store 1000 votes will be given with ev ery dollar purchase at their new jewelry department, and 200 votes with every dollar purchase of general merchandise. Help yourself by helping oth- ers! Give your favorite candi- date what aid you can, if it he no more than the giving of the free coupons that appear every week in this paper. Cut them out and save them. Every little bit helps. Every coupon, no matter how small, will put your candi- date jnst that much nearer to one of the five piano prizes. They are all well worth the win- ning and an opportunity like this does not occur every day. Take hold and push! Every- body! Remember that there are I five piano prizes— five chances for each entered candidate.,. Certain success is for the five girls who will fall in line and stay there; who do the best they can six days every week. • - 11 ‘RDIN PEOPLE TO HAVE TREAT Noted Reader Will Give Heats' under Auspices of 4.Ladie's Circle Kizzie Hardin Martin, a grad - of the Wesleyan School of I .a.ession and a student of the \ sleyan University of Lincoln, Iv& give a public recital at the Thomas Hall, on Saturday night, 'July 22td, under tbe adspices of the Ladies' Circle.
