                      RECOGNIZING TREASURE COUNTY

<bullet> Mr. DAINES. Mr. President, this week I have the honor of 
congratulating Treasure County for 100 years of as one of Montana's 56 
counties.
  Although one of the least populous counties in Montana, Treasure 
boasts many historic buildings that incorporate the rich history of Big 
Sky Country from the Yucca Theater with its beautiful Spanish mission 
style architecture that provided hope and entertainment during the 
Great Depression, to the 1950s contemporary style courthouse in Hysham. 
With a population less than a thousand, Treasure County's rich lands 
provide a bounty for ranchers and farmers alike.
  Treasure County is an important part of Montana's cherished history 
and remains a vital part of our State's landscape. I congratulate the 
folks down in Treasure County on celebrating 100 years of excellence in 
local government.<bullet>
