Mr.. Richardson disclaimed any intention of

RICHEST OIL FIELDS IN
THE KNOWN WORLD
Discovered in the kintla Lake Region.
Experts Report.

Joseph Soss of Helena and R. E.
Poindexter, of Dillon, returned Mon
day from trip to the oil fields be-
tween Kintla lake and McDonald's
lake. They are interested extensively
in the new fields, Mr.. Soss being an
expert upon whose report a great deal
depends. He claims to have visited
every oil region of any consequence
in the world, from Roumania to Ohio
and was the original discoverer of the
Ohio oil region. California and Texas
discoveries being recent Mr.. Soss has
not visited, but he is enthusiastic over
the outlook for oil in quantities in
this region. In his opinion the Oil
fields extend from Kintla and Melon
aid lakes up to our very doors and
when development is once taken up
and pushed the Flathead valley will
be the most productive oil region in
the United States. His trip to the
lakes was hard one, through fallen
timber and almost inaccessible trails,
the continuous rain not helping any,
but he is glad he went, because he is
SO well satisfied with the prospects
for oil.
The Butte company is building a
road in from Kintla lake to Melon
aid and when it is finished, machinery
for boring the wells will be taken in
by several companies. The best To-
cations Mr. Soss thinks are within 10
miles of the lakes, but oil is every
where. The wells will probably have
to be drilled from eight to twelve
hundred feet but he thinks the oil
will flow from the bore in quantities
which will make this region famous.
About ten square miles of placer
ground has been taken up by his COM
pany and the other company which
has the men in the field have more
than doubled that amount of location.
The country in that immediate vicini-
ty is about all taken up now, and there
is little else to do but wait for the
completion of the wagon road so that
machinery may be taken in.
In common with other experts who
have been about here investigating,
Mr.. Soss cannot realize why Kalispell
people have not gone into this good
thing. The oil comes to the surface
in the wilds of the lakes but there is
strong probability that the reservoirs
extend all over this basin and at
greater depth than about the lakes.
Under present conditions it is not
likely that more than development
work will be done this year, but after
the machinery once gets in and oil is
found in paying quantities the capital
will be forthcoming.

FIND klATSUl GUILTY
OF ASSAULT AND BATTERY
Jap Proved an Alibi but Jury Finds
Him Guilty.

Jap PROVED an AIlpl OUT jury FIUOS
Him Guilty.
The case of Emo Matsini, the Jap
accused of assault by Mary Gilfllin,
was heard before Justice Sullivan yes
terday afternoon. This case was heard
sometime ago before Justice Near
thur and the Jap was bound over to
the district court. The charge then
was assault with intent to commit
rape. When the case was called in the
district court 1t was dismissed. After
ward w. T. Gilfillin, the father of the
little girl, had the Jap arrested on
the charge of assault and battery.
This was the case heard yesterday.
The case was set for hearing at
1880 p. M, but on account of the diff
ficulty in securing jury it was about
o'clock when it commenced. w. N.
Noffsinger acted as counsel for the de-
PENDANT and w. T. McKeown appear.
ed for the state.
A number of laps were present in
the court room as witnesses for the
defense. They were employed on the
section at Bolton and testified that
Matsini was working at that place at
the time the crime was committed.
One of the employees of the Oriental
Trading company acted as interpreter.
Mary Gilfillan. the prosecuting wit
ness, testified that as she was return
ing home after witnessing the balloon
ascension that took place in Kalispell
last April, she was seized by the de-
PENDANT who attempted to drag her
into the alley back of the old Bader
lumber yard on the west side. She was
thrown to the ground, but before the
Jap could go any further he was
frightened away by the approach of
pedestrian. The little girl ran home
and told her father, who started out on
a search for her assailant. He
COUNT be found, but a few days af-
terward he was seen on the street and
positively identied by the girl as the
man who grabbed hold of her.
The defense stated that it was a
case of mistaken identity. That the de-
PENDANT was not the one who commit
| ted the assault, as he was in Bolton
at the time. The section foreman
was put on the stand and testified to
that effect, as did each one of the
Japs who made up the section gang at
| that time.
| The case had not proceeded very
far before it was enlivened by some
very warm tilts between the opposing
counsel. Mr.. Noffsinger accused Mr..
McKeown of violating professional
ethics and betraying gross ignorance
of legal lore. This was denied in a
very forcible manner.
The prosecuting attorney was very
much dissatisfied with the work of
the interpreter, who, he claimed, was
telling the Jap witnesses what to say.
The latter were very ignorant and
the majority could neither read OF
write either in Japanese or English
and apparently testified to whatever
they were told.
After continual wrangling between
the opposing counsel the case was
given to the jury about half past six
but the court then took a recess un
til 8 o'clock before hearing argu
ment of the counsel. At o'clock the
arguments were heard and the jury
retired. In half an hour they returned
verdict of guilty and set the penalty
at 60 days in jail and fine of 500
The case was appealed to the distric
court.
