ROGERS IS Topped OFF
Butte Has No Representative at
Omaha.
HIS SALARY CUT DOWN
He Thinks That the Butte and An
aconda Exhibits Have Not Been
Given Proper Prom
inence.

w. r.. Rogers, who has been connect.
ed with the Montana department of the
Omaha exposition since Il, opened, ar.
rived in Butte yesterday, having lost
his position. Mr.. Rogers is not making
any great roar, but he is inclined "a
think that Butte has been made to suf-
fer at the expense of White Sulphur
Springs.
Il do not speak from any prejudice at
ALL" said Mr.. Rogers. but there are
some things there that don't seem just
right. ! don't think it is right that
when there is a big state like Montana
every employe in the Montana depart
ment should come from White Sulphur
Springs. L was the only representative
from outside OF White Sulphur Springs,
and when there was n looping TO be
lone l was Topped off. 1t came about
In this way. All the White sulphur
Springs employees had their salaries
raised while my salary was cut. So |
threw up my job. OF course that was
what they were after. for Il was neces-
sary to reduce the force and the Butte
man a to go.
Now, OF course, there is no chance
of my going back there. That part of II
Is all off. But 1t really seems to me that
there should be some representative
from Butte or Anaconda in the Mon
tana building. Almost every day some
one inquiries Are there any Butte men
here" / was the only Butte man and
all were turned over to me 10 entertain.
But now there Is no one there al all TO
receive the Butte people. Butte surely
furnishes the big share OF the Montana
visitors, and there ought to be some one
there from Butte to show them around
and explain things. The Montana ex-
hibit is a good one on the whole.
don't think Butte and Anaconda show
off as well as they should. They have
OF course the most prominent features
or the Montana exhibit, but 1t seems to
me that greater pains hav been taken
10 give prominence to the Castle dis
trict and other mining districts OF Mon
tana. These districts do not show up
better than Butte. but relatively they
DO. We In Montana know that the Cas-
tie mining district cannot compare in
any respect with the Butte district. but
one would not get that impression in
walking through the Montana exhibit.
The displays are So arranged that the
visitor would be quite as favorably inn
pressed with the Castle as with the
Butte district.
The exposition in general is doing
well now The war hurt II very ma
terially, keeping thousands away in all
parts Of the country who had intended
visiting the exposition. Now. however,
the attendance is improving and ] think
the close of the exposition will be all
right. Then the farmers around there
nave no money at all. We people out
mere don't know what hard times are.
They have hard times all the while"
Mr.. Rogers also criticised quite sharp
~ the expenditure of money for the
Montana exhibit. He thought there had
been much unnecessary expense and
extravaganza had been shown in
Of the furnishings. He also
thought the building had cost more
than was warranted by it's appearances.
