CAME INTO MONTANA DRIVING Am OK TEAM

One day in 1868 an OK team plod-
ded laboriously into Bannack, the
new gold camp. 1t had come all the
way from Colorado, and the trip had
taken IS days. A slender young man
was in charge of the OK team. He
wore soldiers blue overcoat, of the
kind that the defenders affected in
the sixties. One end of the coat had
been burned away in a camp fire,
otherwise the coat was all wool, and
a yard too wide for the youth who
wore it.
The driver was William A. Clark,
in later years to be United States
senator for Montana, and one of the
richest men in America. 1t is said
of him that he has since won seven
fortunes, each of them many times
a million dollars, in seven different
and distinct fields of endeavor-
mining, finance, sugar, coffee, man
ufacturing, cattle raising and rail-
reading. The other day he SUBJ
scribed for 100000 worth of Lib
erty bonds, and his interests are so
nationwide that he stipulated that
$1,00O,000 of his purchase be cred
tied to the Montana subscription, the
remainder being distributed among
various states where he has holdings.
He had been attracted to Bannack
by the stories of fabulous fortunes
that were being made in the newly
discovered placer diggings. Prior to
his coming he had worked as miner
in the quartz mines of Central City,
and before that had been a Hedging
school teacher in Iowa, to which state
his family had removed from Penn
sylvania while he was boy. He was

to the soldiers overcoat with the
charred tail, and drove away to the
new discovery
1t was the start of his fortune. He
arrived at the new diggings in time
to locate a fairly good placer claim,
and went to work. That summer he
washed out $4,000 in gold dust above
his expenses. He did his own cook
ing and saved his money.
He mined for two years with mod
est success, and then went into mer-
chandising. His first achievement of
note was when he cornered all the to-
bacco there was between the noun
tains and civilization. Tobacco was
very scarce in the gold camps of the
territory. He took a quantity of
gold dust, and rode horseback from
Bannack to Boise. In Boise he found
a fair quantity of tobacco, and i'm
mediately proceeded to buy up all
that was in stock. His first few pur-
chases were made at a reasonable
figure, but by the time he had accu-
mulated several thousand pounds of
the weed, the price had been forced
up to $3.50 per pound.
He bought a wagon and team,
loaded his tobacco, and in the middle
of December, in a blizzard, started
on the back trail with his precious
cargo, for Helena. Arriving in Hell
ena he sold his tobacco at prices
ranging from SIS to Sc per pound.
The exploit netted him a handsome
sum.

CHAIRMAN BOWMAN OF
STATE HAIL BOARD
ASSAILS EQUITY
INSTEAD.
Equity Society Takes Posi-
ton It Is Opposing Present
State Hail Law for Sake of
the Real Principle of State
Observation-Disclosures Law
UnsOund and Unworkable.

Chairman Bowman of the
State Hail Board, through the
press of the state, has charged
the American Society of Equity
with grossly misinterpreting the
provisions of the state hail law.
He also is defending the state
hail law of North Dakota, which
the Equity points to as an ex-
ample of the inefficienccy and
uncertainty of state hail insur-
ance under the plan which Mon
tana has adopted.
1t must be remembered that
the Equity has at no time at
tempted to define the Montana
law. Officials of this big farm
ers' organization have, however,
pointed to the apparent defects
in the present law, asking Mr..
Bowman number of questions,
Such queries as: If the expense
account of the State Hail Board
exceeds the ten per cent allowed
by law, how are the excess ex-
penses to be met? will they be
left unpaid, or will money be
taken from the fund that would
otherwise be paid out to farmers
who suffer loss? What effort
has the State Hail Board made
to test the constitutionality of
the Montana law? And MANY
other questions of vital import
ance to Montana farmers. None
of these questions have been
answered by Mr.. Bowman.
AS to the North Dakota hail
law, it is only necessary to talk
with farmers in that state to
learn how unsatisfactory it has
been. Many of the wide-awake
farmers there realize that
the principle of state in
surance is all right, but
that their particular law, like
Montana's, is wrong in prac-
tice. These men are anxious for
a proper law to be enacted, but
so many other farmers, whose
knowledge of state hail insur.
ance has been gathered from the
practice of North Dakota's law,
are Disguised with it, that they
are p1ejudiced against state hail
insurance forever.
The Equity's position relative
to the Montana law is that. like
North Dakota's law, it is not
sound and workable, and that
the only way to head off disas-
ter and the ultimate abandon
ment of the principle is to OPP
pose our present law from the
start. The Equity has no selfish
or Interior motives, whatever,
and welcomes intelligent discuss
sion of the O'Shea law. Mr.. Bow
man, in the opinion Of the Equity
farmers, is losing sight of the
point at issue when he assails the
Equity through the press instead
of devoting space to explaining
the law to the people. The
Equity believes that no sane ex-
PLANTATION of the law can be
made, Ads,

Io,ua to Be Bone Dry
After Next Sunday,
Says State Attorney

Des Moines, April 13,-Attorney Gen :
eral Havner yesterday gave notice to
the railroads and express companies
that beginning next Monday, all liquor
shipments into Iowa to persons not
holding permits will be confiscated
Under this ruling, Sunday is the
last day on which delivery of liquor
can be made in this state. County
attorneys are advised to begin ac-
tive prosecution of persons violating
the prohibitory law after that date.
The consumer who neglects to have
a supply of booze laid aside for the
dry days. will find 1t impossible to
get liquor after April 10, except by
carrying it across the border line OF
the state in such quantities as not to
arouse suspicion Of the officers that
the prohibitory law is being violated.
The state has gone dry by the de-
cision Of the United States circuit
court Of appeals. reversing the Car
penter decision, and holding that the
Iowa prohibitory laws. together with
the federal statutes make the ship
ment of liquor into the state prohibited
except to permit holders.
The only permit holders in Iowa are
druggists and 80 per cent Of the drug
gists have no permits.
The attorney general yesterday re-
celved copies of the federal court de-
cision He finds that the court up
holds the contention OF the Iowa de.
partmcnt Of justice on every point.
