Conrad.
STOP WORK ON
Campaign for Funds to Repair
Earthquake Damage
Moving Slowly
Press dispatches from Helena last
night stated that it would be neces
sary to stop work on the schoolhouses
in Gallatin county which were wreck
ed by the recent earthquake owing to
lack for
financing the work not proceeding as
rapidly as was anticipated.
Gallatin county oversubscribed its
quota nearly 50 per cent and Missoula
county also went over its allotment,
being the only two counties which
have been successful in raising the
amounts assigned to them.
It is reported that only $20,000 of
the needed $62,500 has been secured,
but the campaign is to continue.
