FRED FUNSTON.

The sudden death Of General Funston will come
as shock to the American people, with whom he
had ever been popular hero.
His whole life had been series Of dramatic Incl
dents that appealed to the public mind. From
railroad conductor to major general in the regular
army, his life reads like a romance.
Twenty years ago he first came into notice as
commander of the artillery forces IN General Comes
tatterdemaion army. which was fighting for Cuba
Llbre. Funston was then barely % years DID,
When the Spanish war broke out Funston was
at the front as colonel Of the Kansas volunteer
regiment in the Philippines. His capture Of Agu-
naldo brought him into the lime light like no other
regular volunteer officer Of the campaign.
Roosevelt recognized the brilliant feat by prompt
ly naming him brgader in the regular army The
swivel chair bngadiers at Washington g1owled their
disapprova OF the presidents action and made their
resentment felt in army circles that Ii years
elapsed before Funston was promoted to major
general.
The recent fasco in Mexico again brought him to
the front and he handled the situation with char
acteristic energy and ability In his death the army
loses an able officer and the country distinguished
son.

Liner SINKS SUBMARINE
French Freighter Bests IT,
Boat in 4O-Minute Bat
tie Off France.

New York, Feb. 19.-In a 4O.miuute
battle between a German U-boat and
the French line steamship Guayane off
the coast of France on January 90, the
submarine was sunk, according to Of
ficers of the freighter which arrived
here today from Bordeaux.
The Guayane was one day out from
port. At $3.50 p. m. Captain Fousselot
said the U-boat was sighted some dis
lance to port and apparently endeav-
oring to cross the freighter's bow to
stop her.
Shot Stops Short.
The submarine fired a shot which
fell short and the Guayane then turned
sharply to starboard so that her big
IS millimeter gun, mounted at the stern
could be trained on the approaching
vessel. The submarine fired a second
shot, which fell considerably short. and
n third which struck the water close
by the freighter.
Meanwhile the Guayane's gunner had
sent one shell which failed to hit but
struck very near its mark. A second
shot from the Guayane, Captain Rous-
selot said, hit the Y boat sqlarely and
the underwater boat was seen to coll
lapse.
Ends Shell Fire.
During the next 80 minltes the Ger
man craft appeared to be struggling
for existence. No one appeared on
deck and no further attempt to shell
the freighter was made and the
Gayane refrained firing any more
shots. At the end of the half hour the
submarine disappeared. The freight
er's officers said they had no doubt
that the U-boat was lost.
The Guayane, a steel vessel OF 2,06S
tons net, carried 81 men. There were
no Americans aboard. She brought a
general cargo of about 1000 tons.

COAL FROM WEST OF MISSISSIPPI

The American nation might do we'll to realize

This is so for the reason that while only

Indeed. the east is beginning to take alarm, and
the owners of some of the richest already
talking of outstanding their supplies that their
future needs may be cared for.
And such careful outstanding of coal will alone

TUESDAY MORNING. FEB. 20. 1917.
WHY NOT AT POISON?

There have been many rumors afloat recently
concerning the building Of paper mill somewhere
in western Montana. The unheard of prices now
being demanded for paper Of all kinds has caused
revival Of the agitation to convert Montana spruce
and fir into paper.
The three elements that must be in juxtaposition
in paper manufacture are suitable timber. cheap
power and transportation. The Flathead lake basin
probably contains more timber than any similar
in the northwest.
The power at the mouth OF Flathead lake. held
in rusteeshp by the secretary OF the interior. has
been pronounced by eminent engineers as second
only to that at Niagara. The completion Of the
new railroad will connect the Flathead lake country
with the outside world.
At Poison power. timber and railroad transport
tation meet From the surrounding lake frontage
and the tributary streams billions Of feet Of spruce
and fir timber are Immediately available. The new
railroad provides the outlet, by rail. to all the coun
try served by the great Northern Pacific and Bur-
lngton systems. Lake transportation to Somers
gives an outlet to all the territory covered by the
Great Northern railway.
In the entire stretch Of country through Montana
and the Dakotas. Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska
and Kansas there is not single paper mill. The
government timber reserves that embrace the major
portion Of the nexhausble timber belt that stretches
from the crest OF the main range Of the Rockies,
westward into the Idaho country will furnish per-
petual cut for half dozen paper mills in that Sec
lion. Under the federal policy Of conservation this
supply Of timber for paper manufacture is carried by
the government and requires outlay Of capital for
timber holdings as is the case in the eastern states.
With these basic conditions for cheap manufacture
Of paper here at home. it may be that the present
prohbitive prices for paper may bring about the
early construction Of a paper plant in western Mon
tana. for the relief Of the present calling conditions
Under the immutable law Of compensation. that
which sometimes seems TO be curse may in the end
prove to be blessing. The present so-caled
paper famine may yet be the means Of developing
this great natural resource OF western Montana.
