ROCKEFELLER'S 8
FORTUNE NOW
OVER BILLION
BALANCE SHEET PREPARED AND
QUOTED ON HIS 77TH BIRTHDAY
FORTUNE GROWS RAPIDLY
DESPITE GIFTS.

Cleveland, O., July 24-Information
of the existence of a balance sheet
compiled on the occasion of John L.
Rockefeller's seyenty-seventh birth
day, showing that his private fortune,
exclusive of endowment funds and
other benefactions, exceeds a billion
dollars, is said to be in possession
Of the authorities of Cuyahoga county.
The existence of the balance sheet,
indicating that Mr.. RoCkefeller's for
tune exceeds that of any man in the
world. was discovered in the search
for evidence TO present in the United
States circuit court of appeals in the
forthcoming attempt Of Cuyahoga
county to force Mr. Rockefeller to pay
taxes on holdings of more than $780,,
600, 900. Mr.. Rockefeller obtained an
Injunction in the United States dis
trict court in Cleveland, preventing
the enforcement of tax collection on
the holdings in October, 1915, and in
December of the same year Cuyahoga
county filed an appeal in the United
States circuit court.
Steadily Mounts Upward.
Since then county authorities have
been endeavoring to obtain evidence
that Mr.. Rockefeller was legal res
ident of Cleveland. He is now at his
home here, and on July celebrated
his seventy-seventh birthday. 1t was
about that time, it is understood, that
a balance sheet containing the ex-
tent and the varied amounts of his
holdings was presented to him. The
balance sheet, according to authentic
indicated that the Rookie
feller fortune had exceeded $1,000
100000 and steadily was mounting
upward; so rapidly, in fact, that with
all of his enormous benefactions, Mr..
was unable to dispose of
the income.
Half in Standard Oil.
OF the enormous total nearly $780,
100000 represents Mr.. Rockefeller's
holdings in the various Standard Oil
and their subsidiaries. He
holds approximately 247,962 shares
out of a total of SS3,3S shares issued
in all of the companies. The stock
Is now quoted around $1,700, about
three times what it was before the
federal courts issued the order dis
solving the great corporation into in
dependent companies.
The remainder of Mr. Rockefeller's |
'ortune, it is understood, is shown to |
le in enormous holdings in various |
'ailway and banking corporations, the |
United States Steel Corporation, and
n national, municipal, state and in
oreign bond issues. Among his hold
ngs. it is recorded, there are $10,-
OO0,0 900 of Anglo-French war bonds,
loated here last year by the allied
commission.

The Habit of Taking Cold

With many people taking cold is a
habit, but fortunately one that is
easily broken. Take a cold sponge
bath every morning when you first
get out of bed-not ice cold, but a
temperature of about 90 degrees F.
Also sleep with your window up.
Do this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold take

NOT In FAVOR
OR REMOVAL
Rev. Father Lambot Sees No Necessity
For the Removal Of the Kootenai
Valley Indians
WANTS FAIR PLAY FOR INDIANS
Believes the Government Should Look
After Its Charges Better

Father Lambot, of the st. Eugene
Mission, Cranbrook, B. c., is better
acquainted, perhaps, than any other
person, with the conditions sur
rounding the Kootenai Valley-Indians; ;
with their needs and the advisability
on the part of the government for
their removal to some Indian reser-
walton. At this writing the Indian
Department seems to have taken the
stand that the Kootenai Valley In
dams are better off here but it is
possible that the discussion of the
matter which has been carried thru
the Herald the past few weeks may
arouse the Department to look after
its wards here a little better and
give them more of the considera-
ton to which they are entitled. Fol-
lowing is Father Lambot's answer
torney Bartlett Sinclair published in
the Herald:
The Editor,
The Bonners Ferry Herald:
Dear Sir:
1t is refreshing to see that some
people have finally realized that the
Indians have not been treated fair
ly; but to call their position dis
tressing" and most unfortunate" is,
/ think. rather extreme. Certainly
the government has some duties to-
wards them, duties which have been
neglected, inexcusably neglected. Ger
tainly. they need help; still, if they
have been able to live until this
day, if they have been able to be
happy Happiness is subjective) with
out the help of the government, and
with all kinds of restrictions i'm
posed upon them year after year
without any compensation, most
probably they could go on living
and be happy. if only they were
left alone by the whites.
1 do not know on what authority
reposes the assertion that 25 years
ago they numbered between 500 and
600 souls, but l know from per-
sonal knowledge that these last years
at least they are holding their own,
and if their births and deaths rates
do not change, the Indians will live
long time yet.
Personally, 1 fail to see what ad-
vantages would accrue the Indians
from being moved to a reserva-
ton.
Is it a school? The government has
just built a school for them, where
they will receive as good an educa-
ton as anywhere.
Is il church. Surely anyone who
knows these Indians knows that in
this respect they set an example
which could be followed to advan-
tage by most of the white people
around Boomers Ferry.
Is it better medical attendance?
Why Mr.. Sinclair has shown us
that right here in Boomers Ferry
they can get the best medical at
tendance without extra cost
Is it better climate? If the eli
mate is good enough for the whites,
why not for the Indians? Does any
