FOR STATE ROAD WORK..

The appropriations for highway
work include $780, 900 for intercounty
roads to be constructed by the state;
$685., 900 for county roads on which the
state pays half the expenses; $4,000 for
an investigation to locate suitable road
building materials; 100000 for the
purchase of rock crushing and other
road building machinery, and $4,000
for the establishment of convict camps.
Some of the members of the board
of control do not believe that the best
results can be obtained by the estab-
lishment of convict camps that do not
employ more than twenty-five or thirty
men. 1t is declared that an additional
guard would enable prison officials to
look after a camp of sixty men and a
proportionate decrease in cost of main
~tenance would be found. 1t is not de-
termined whether sixty men could be
employed at a rock crushing plant,
though such a number could be used
in general road building.

AMALGAMATED COMPANY
HAS A NEW PRESIDENT

James A. Mathews, a prominent
merchant Of Butte, arrived from the
north this morning en- route to Tono-
pah on business trip and where he
has extensive and promising mining
interests. Mr.. Mathews says the
death Of II. H. Rogers, head of the
Amalgamated Copper company and its
varied interests in Montana, idaho,
Utah and the intermountain region,
has resulted in thoroughly practical
mining man being placed in supreme
authority, in the person Of Managing
Director Ryan, who will succeed Mr.
Rogers as president of the Amalgamat-
ed company and direct the affairs of
the big corporation from mis- New
York office, Continuing. Nh Math-
ews said to a Standard reporter:
Ryan is big broad gauged man OF
affairs and for several years has di-
rected the affairs of the company in
the west-always. however, under the
cautious guidance of the late Henry RI.
Rogers. The latter's influence re-
suited in closing down many promis-
ing mining propositions in the west
that might have been developed prof
itably by less conservative men. Now
that Mr.. Ryan Is in the saddle. how
ever and in full authority it Is gen
orally believed in Butte that the Anal
gamated company will open up mines
that are now idle and increase the
output largely BY the employment: of
more miners and the enlargement of
the Anaconda and Great Falls smell.
terS.
1T is understood that while Pres
ident Ryan will take up his duties in
New York and reside there permanent
ly. John G. Maronev will be made
managing director in the west and will
be given greater authority than was
ever enjoyed by Mr.. RYAN while fill
ing that important position. MaIoney
is one of the most popular men In
Montana-a Self-made man in the
broadest sense of that term. He is
a little bit of fellow-with a great
big head-and for many years was
the private secretary of the late Mar
Gus DAILY. After the latter's death,
Mrs. DAILY intrusted the management
of the large DAILY estate almost en-
tirely 10 John Maroney, and he has
made a splendid success Of the vast
property interests, controlling half a
dozen banks, large mining interests
and, various Important enterprises.
He will be an invaluable man as an
assistant TO President Ryan and the
selection of these two brainy men will
rebound 10 the benefit of the big cor
poration and the different localities |
in which property interests of the !
company are located. RYAN now draws !
a salary Of something Ike 100000 /
yearly and Johnny Maroney. who be- |
gan work for Marcus Daily at a sal i
