VIEWS OF
PARIS GIBSON
Distinguished Wontanian Sees
No Harm in Merger
WILL HELP THE STATE
He Says That in His Opinion the Com
panies Interested Will Aid 10 Up
Buil5ing the Population.
WILL HELP THE STATE

Being desirous of obtaining the SEN
timents of the Montana senators on
the question of the great railroad
merger, the Bee telegraphed to them
asking for an expression of their
opinion on the matter. Senator Clark
was out of the city, but from Senator
Gibson the following statement was
received:
AS | am not a lawyer, l will ven
ture no opinion as to the legal rights
of the Northern Securities company.
What we in Montana wish to know is
the effect that this control of stock
will have upon our state 1t. seems to
me improbable that under this rail
way merger the industries of the
northwest will be in any manner
crippled. | cannot see where a har-
mony of railway interests would be
detrimental to us. On the contrary,
- NY DSlICl ludb lIOlS lHdll CFSl
.ore it would be the desire of the
inilway companies to build up the
farming, mining and manufacturing
industries of our state. The railway
companies doing business in Montana
are taking more lively interest
than ever before in the settlement of
the state, and in the subject of ma
tional aid to irrigation, which is the
real foundation for our future pros
perity. For many years past the
Great Northern Railway company has
reduced it's western freight tariffs
from time to time, clearly on the
theory that such reduction would tend
to the upbuilding of the country, and,
consequently to increase it's fTei@ht
tonnage. 1t is simply absurd that the
Great Northern. Northern Pacific and
Burlington companies would use great
efforts to establish farm colonies and
manufacturing interests along their
lines and then impose a rate on grain
and manufactured products that
would destroy or cripple the farms
and the mills. We should not forget
that it is for the interest of these
railways that Montana should have
more people. more farms, more pro-
ductive mines and more cattle and
sheep than it has ever had before.
Wars beween railway companies or
railway failures will not contribute to
our welfare. Montana, with popula-
ton of about 250,0O0 and an area Of
lat 900 square miles, has S,137 miles
of railway lines. which, all things
considered. is a showing to be proud

Buenos Ayres, Jan. 1.-THE ru-

"HOLE IN THE WALL"
Famous Entrance to Outlaws Refuge
to Be Blown Up With Dynamite.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan. 6.-The
brated Hole in the Wall country will,
in a short time, only. be remem-
brance. The Hole has been the refuge
of outlaws from Arizona, Utah, Mon
tana, Colorado and Wyoming, and
was practically inaccessible. 1t lies
in the southwestern part of Johnson
county, and directly in the line of a
county road which is soon to be built.
The Hole in the Wall is not wide
enough to allow the passage of the
road, and dynamite will be brought
into use to widen the fissure in the
red sandstone cliffs. The Hole in
the Wall is the only entrance from
the south to beautiful and rich val
ley and must be used to prevent a
days detour
Another mark of the passing of the
Hole in the Wall is a petition which
has been sent to the post office de-
partment asking for the establish
ment of a post office at the Hook
ranch, almost at the mouth of the
Hole. The settlement of the country
has been rapid since the Hole ceased

are now enough residents to make a
post Office a necessity.

ROAST FOR CHAMBERLAIN.
German Statesman Attacks Him in d
Bitter Manner

0ItlCT "dnncTs
Berlin, Jan. 11.-During the course
of debate in the reischstag today
references were made to Mr.. Cham
'berlain's remark concerning the Ger
man army, when the British colonial
secretary delivered his famous speech
at Edinburg. Herr Sonneenberg, rad
ical, anti-Semite, made a long and VIC
lent speech indulging in the most
bitter invectives against Mr.. Cham
berlain and the British army ever
heard in the reischstag. He charac-
teriZed Chamberlain as the most
wicked man on Gods earth. This ex
preston called forth stern rebuke
from the president of the house, but
Sonneenberg, unabashed, assailed the
British army, CHASING that as a
mob of thieves and robbers, unfit 20
be compared with the glorious Ger
mans"
The speakers remarks called forth
further censure from the president.
During a course of conversation in
the lobby after the adjournment of
the reischstag, Herr Sonneenberg
said he had deliberately exposed him
self to being called to order, wishing
that the real temper of the people
might at last be voiced in it's proper
place.

BLAME THE OFFICERS.
Men on the WalIa WaIIa Celebrated
New Years and Were Drunk.

'NSW dN0i dtN NNiS ~
San Francisco, Jan. Jacob Mil
Ter, capitalist of Seattle, who was
on the Walla Walla with his wife,
lays the blame unequivocally upon
the officers of the steamer. He says
that he was on deck a moment after
the crash and that he then saw the
lights of the bark brightly burning.
The night was so clear, he declares,
that even if the Max had no lights
she could have been seen 1000 feet
away with the naked eye. Miller also
makes the sensational charge of
drunkenness ON board the Walla
Walla.
J. w. Ettershank, the quartermas-
ter, who was at the wheel of the
Walla Walla when the Max crashed
into her on the port side, saw. the
bark approaching, but shifts all re-
sponsibility for the disaster to the
two officers he says were on the
bridge-Second Officer Lupp and
Third Officer Hughes.
Il have made my statement to the
Il0pSCIOIS VI otlIu JULIUS, Sdlu
Ettershank, signed my name to it
and swore to it's truth. 1t will sur
prise everybody, even the officials of
the steamship company. All sorts OF
stories have been published about the
wreck, but they are all wrong. My
statement is right. l was in the wheel
house when the bark ran her prov
into us.
con the bridge were Second Off
Ger Lupp and Third Officer Hughes,
Johnson was station man, Wilson
deck watchman. 1t was a clear night
and we were coasting north northwest
?t good speed. l saw the light of the
bark and knew that she was ap-
preaching us. All of us-Lupp,
Mughes, Johnson and myself-knew
that the bark was coming. l did not
receive any orders, however, until
half minute before the collision.
Johnson and the second officer yelled
down to me: Hard a-port.' l worked
the wheel for dear life, but the best
| could do did not save us. The bark
pushed her nose into us and | knew
it was the last of the Walla Walla.
1T was a bad ending to a very
merry new year on board, and guess
next time some of us will not cele-
brate so much. myself never drink.

Governor fToole Receives a Long Petition

ROOSEvELT'S NAME WAS USEl
Through Accident The Fraud Was Discovered and the Plot

Helena, Jan. 11.-Governor Toole
has unearthed the most daring frau l.

been written by him, asking for the
pardon of Launcelot G. Livingston, a

Vice President Roosevelt said that
the letter was a forgery.
A few days ago the full extent of
the forgery looking to the pardon of
Livingston was revealed. A petition

NORTHERN MONTANA OIL CO.
kaispeIl Corporation Organized to
Develop the Great Oil Field.

Articles of incorporation of the
Northern Montana Oil company were
filed in the Office of the clerk and re-
corder this week. The company is
formed under the laws of the state
of Washington and is capitalized at
100000 shares at par value of s..
per share.
The officers at present are B. j.
McIntire, president; R. E. Webster,
treasurer, and ]. H. Stevens, secre.
tary. Inc directors are H. C. Keith,
E. j. Schlagel, T. c. Hand, T. D. Far
row, P. A. Viles, and F. E. French of
kalispell, and w o. Dutton of Spo-
kane. AS the company was incorpo,
rated under the laws of Washington,
1t was necessary to have an officer in
that state.
The new company has about $500
acres of land in the oil region, the
majority of which is near Bowman
lake, but it is the intention to in
crease their holdings whenever de-
sirable land can be secured. One
hundred thousand shares of the stock
at three cents per share has been
sold within a remarkably short time
and new issue will shortly be placed
on the market
The sale of the shares netted the
company $4,000, with which an oil
rig and other necessary machinery
will be purchased and drilling opera
tions will commence as soon as con-
ditions will permit The new CON-
pany is distinctly local corporation
and will make an energetic effort to
successfully develop their properties
