OUR GUESTS.

As the hostess. of the bankers of
Montana this week. Missoula is fully
appreciative of the distinguished honor
which is the chief feature of the pleas
ant duty devolving upon the city which
eutertains these men upon the occa-
sion of their annual gathering. 1t is
the desire Of Missoula-and it will he
az long as these visitors are here
that they be accorded the greatest
freedom to come and go as they
choose. In that way they will surely
obtain from their brief stay in Mis-
soula the fullest enjoyment. If there
il anything which they want which is
not in plain sight. the mere signifying
of the desire will bring its speedy
qualification. These bankers are the
men who are back of the states in
dustriai and commercial prosperity.
They do not as often as they should
receive the credit for their part in adj
yancing the interests Of the state.
Not many of us realize the full extent
of their contribution to Montana's
greatness. But it is large. They de-
serve the credit for il; the interest
which we pay them is small compensa-
ton in many cases.

FIFTY YEARS OF OIL.

So common are the products OF pc
troleum and so necessary part of our
domestic and commercial life have
they become that we do not realize
that II is only fifty years since the first
oil we'll was drilled in Pennsylvania.
Today the semi-centennial of the drill
ing Of the first well at Titusviile by
Edwin L. Drake will be celebrated
with considerable ceremony. There
win be II large attendance of nromi-
nent oil men and the exercises will be
noteworthy.
Edwin l.. Drake. although Justly ia
nous as the founder of the oil industry
in this country. was not the disco'erer
OF oil. From time immemorial the In
dams had obtained oil for medical pur-
purposes from the valley of OIL creek
near Titusvilie where the oil in many
places rose to the surface or exuded
from the porus rock. Even before the
time OF the Indians. the mysterious
mound builders knew Of the existence
of oil. and it is known that they dug
deep wells to collect the oil. which
they probably used for no other than
medicinal purposes.
The early settlers of Pennsylvania
found oil in many places in the oil
creek valley and in its vicinity and
used crude and primitive methods ID
collect the oil from springs and wells
