kintIa Oil Fields Creating Wide

The oil fields of Flathead county
are attracting widespread attention,
as the following from the National
Oil Reporter, published in New York
city, will show:
"The Flathead county oil field is
of recent discovery and several com
panies are already operating there.
Wells are bling drilled, rigs being
built, machinery and tools going in
and preparations from numerous
sources are in operation for progress
in the early spring. The seepages,
or oil springs, are extensive, showing
length of some fifteen miles on
the eastern edge of the basin, near
the foothills of the mountains.
"As this basin contains nearly 400
square miles of surface, in which are
Tie sedimentary shells and sand rock
of the tertiary and cretaceous forma.
lions of a total thickness of from
1900 to 1000 feet, it is looked upon
as almost certain to become a very
important oil field.
"A very great incentive for it's de
velopment is the remarkably high
grade quality of the. crude oil, this
being even lighter in gravity that the
well known Pennsylvania oils, com
pairing as .809 to 1926, and giving ar

or anything ne Nhntou, Al tAo tneln
bers did not happen to be honest, Or
il the county attorney happened to
have a different kind Of politics from
that of men elected to fiscal court the
latter could place the salary, after the
man is elected by vote of the people
and begun WORK, at practics..S nO'h'
ing, and force him 10 resign. The |
law does not contemplate any such o
possibility, and does not intend 70
place any such power in the hands OF
any set of men. But il there is any
law justifying it, 1t is not good law
and is probably unconstitutional, and
does not afford the people who are
taxed to pay such salaries any protec'
ton. A man uuder such law may be
paid anything the friendship of fiscal
coart prompts them to pay him. not
what the services he renders justify.
1t is a complete violation of the spirit
of the law. In this county we are
confronted by the fact that fiscal court
has fixed the salary of county attorney
at $500 more than he got last year.
This is fixed after his term OF Office
began, and during his term OF Office,
violation of-the constitution The
salary Of the county judge, who has
been in office for several mo lths, could
have been increased in the same
manner as that of the county attcr-
ney, had not the Judge voted 1t
down. Whoever heard of the laws
,ntemplating that a public officer
could by dint of any law or decision
of the court of appeals. vote on what
his own salary is to bei If it is
t1e law, however, it should be
changed. The Sun is not complain
ing about the amount nor claiming
that the excellent county officer
we have are not worth more money,
but of the principle of law, real
or imaginary, on which such action
is based.
Another foolish thing fiscal courI
did was to refuse a proposition from
q reputable physician, recognized by
the medical profession. to do the
same work for the taxpayers Of thii
county for $500 that the county IL
paying $500 for now. This is sheer
extravaganza. There is absolutely
nothing to justify 1t. Fiscal court did
not consult the welfare Of the people
a particle. Il elected a mrn at sGot
because he had a bigger "pulr'' thai

vious administration, ore is irduce'
to believe trat we should dispens

OUR FISCAL COURT.

Fiscal court has held its regular
spring term, and the mos 3 commenda-
bic thing IL did was to adjourn. Fis-
cal court is composed of gentlemen
some of whom are intelligent, pro-
cressiye men, but unfortunately OF
some men whose hirsute endowment
is still profusely besprinkled with hay
seed. IL may he that there are none
Of this kind in McCraoken's board.
Bot however that may be, fiscal court
does some very remarkable things.
One of these was to make no pro-
vition for needed repairs to the gravel
roads, which are said to be in bad
condition. 1t is presumed that what
road work will be done will be done
OH the dirt roads, any improvement to
which, as improvements are made. in
this county, is waste of money.
Anoher thing was TO increase the
salary of county attorney, snt TO try
to Increase that Of the county judge.
In the latter case the effort was un-
successful, thanks to the magnsnimous
action Of County Judge Lightfoot,
who generously voted against it. In
that case we have the unprecedented
spectacle of a public officer voting TO
increase or decrease his own salary.
1t is not generally known that the
salaries OF county judge and county
attorney are fixed after these func-
tionaries go into office, and not be-
fore they are elected. Just why this
is is not plain. as the state constitu-
tion says explicitly, section l6l, that
the.salary of no state, county, NUM-
clpal or town officer shall be changed
during his term Of Office. The statutes
provide, in the case of county attor-
ney that his salary shall be fixed by
fiscal court annually. But il does not
say that it shall be fixed after he has
been elected, qualified and entered
into his term Of office. IL is said in
explanation that a decision of the
court Of appeals gives fiscal court this
right. We have not seen tho decision
and there may become of that descrip
ton, but a decision OF the court o.
appeals cannot overturn a provision o.
the constitution. II is also APOLOGIZE
cally said that the county attorney !
not q salariei officer. To some extern
he is not, but nevertheless the com
pensation provided for in the statut
/, designated salary, and If it
only a fee, then the $1,000 fisca
court voted to pay the county attor
ney is q pretty steep fee, especial,
as he gets big per cent Of all fine
in favor of the commonwealth. W
were under the impression that tn
increase from $500 to $1,000 vote
by fiscal court would not and coul
not become enectlve until tine term Q
the incumbent expired, but this wa
an error. 1t goes into effect at once
1t is both unjust and perhaps unoon
stitutional that the salary Of any Off
Ger should be fixed after his election
Suppose that the man elected to tn
position was disposed to and could bu
up fiscal court The members of thi
body. according to their claim an
their recent artiQn, gould fix MS salar
