years our chief rival in the world :

siderable quantities of American
lubrlcatlng oil made from petrol

take also certain quantities Of our
illuminating oil. The largest Gus
toner for our illuminating oil is
England, to which the exports Of
1910 amounted to about $50 million
gallons, valued at more than g mil

the quantity sent to that country
in 1910 being about 108 million gal

Japan about As million; and even
British India about 80 million gal
Ions. IN fact practically every coun-
try IN the world receives greater or
less quantities Of our petroleum.
The list of countries to which it is
sent includes Greenland, Iceland,

MANY MEASURES
BEFORE SOLONS
MusselshelI County Favorably Repor.
ted. Senator Carter Leads.

A number Of new bills were intro
duced, including changes in the wa
ter power sites, ceding Of lands and
protection Of forests as sought by
the highways commission appointed
by the governor; another making
pea-pool amenable under the gamb-
ling laws and another making the
term Of Office of assessors and coun-
ty clerks four instead of two years.
The Republican members of the
house with four exceptions met in
caucus last night and decided to
support Thomas H. Carter for the
senatorship. Should he approach
near enough to mean an election,
three Of the absentees would un-
doubtedly vote for him.
The caucus also endorsed AN
and fair" reapportion-
ment bill and also the Everett pri-
mary measure, although no vote
was taken on the latter proposition.
The caucus, however, went firmly |
on record in the reapportionment
matter.
The bill creating Musselshell coun-
ry was passed on third reading. A
telegram was received from the
Rounpup Commercial club thanking
the senators for their favorable ac-
ton.

American Petroleum Used In
All Parts OF The World

The United States lights the world.
In one hundred countries, colonies
and islands. scattered in every
grand division and in every climatic
section Of the world American kero-
sene supplies light, while in more
than eighty countries the products
of our mineral oils are used in gen
Grating power or for fabrication Of
machinery there in operation. About
1000 million gallons Of American
ker osene pass out of the country
annually, to be used chiefly in light
ing homes and places of business,
and the value of all classes of min
eral oil sent out Of the country ap-
proximates 100 million dollars a
year.
The United States now produces
two-thirds of the worlds supply Of
petroleum the quantity produced in
the year just ended having been,
according to statement recently
issued by the Geological Survey.
over 200 mil ion barrels of crude oil.
or more than s billion gallons. Just
what quantiny Of refined oil was
produced from this more than 8 bill
lion gallons Of crude oil produced in
1910 cannot now be stated, but the
Bureau of Statistics Of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor shows
exports Of practically a billion gal
lons a year Of the refined illumina-
ting oil, and approximately II bill
on gallons Of oil Of all classes, in
,luding in this term illuminating oil, |
ubricating oil. naphthas, and GER
5ain quantities in the crude or un-
,efned state.
What is the value Of this more
han 5 billion gallons of mineral oil
in the United States last
rear? Probably ITS million dollars,
hough this is necessarily an esti-
nate. What is the value Of the fin
shed article, the. illuminating oil,
he naphthas, the gasolene, the lub-
icating oil, the paraffin and other
,rades manufactured from this raw
'roduct? This can only be estimated,
hough the Census of 1905 shows

ing oil; A million naphthas, and

51 million dollars crude oil and about |
million dollars residium. In 1909 |
and 1910 the value Of the exports
was slightly less than in 1908. due
chiefly to a fall in export prices,
though the quantity also showed a
slight decline in 1910 when compared
with 1908.

Helena, Jan. "a Partly as q re.
suit, it is presumed, of the Republi-
can caucus on the senatorial situa-
ton last night the vote for Senator
Carter today jumped to 38, the
highest point reached during the
baIIoting in joint session.
Other votes today were as follows:
Walsh, Democrat, 81; Conrad, Dem
ocrat, is; scattering, II.
This was an increase in the Walsh
vote of 3 and in the Conrad vote Of
2, with a decrease in the compliment
tary ballots of 9. One pair still
held good today. and it is probable
that the vote for Senator Carter
will therefore, show an increase Of
at least one tomorrow when the
Joint session is called.
There is still no prospect Of a
Democratic caucus, and Sc far as
can be learned nothing further has
been done toward lining Up the
county central committeeman to
bring their influence to bear in fa-
vor Of the Helena candidate.
Governor Norris today vetoed the
bill providing for an additional
boiler Inspector on the ground that
it would take one clerk from the Of
flee Of the mine Inspector and handi-
cap the work to that extent It was
the first veto Of the session and was
upheld BY the senate.
In the house the feature of the
session was the introduction of a
bill by Vaughan, closing saloons
from midnight until 6 a. n. Ber-
nard introduced a memorial provid-
ing bronze tablet for the late Cow
ernor r. B. Smith. The somewhat
noted printing bill was re-reIer+l
to the printing committee, the spea-
kar determining a tie vote to this
effect .""
The session of the senate was far
more animated than is usually the /
case -Donlan and Edwards locking
horns over their respective pass and j
anti-pass measures. The outcome
was that both measures were re-
referred to the railroads and trans
portation committee.
The senate also issued an ultima
tum To the city Of Helena that until
electric street car facilities to the
fair grounds are afforded no more
state assistance will be rendered,
nor will the fair be made a perma-
nent institution Fault was also
found with lack Of adequate iod-I
ging facilities for fair visitors. in
consequence the bill for horticul-
tural building was also sent back to
d committee.
