STATE READY FOR
LONG DRY SPELL
Some Montana Breweries to Manu-
facture Ice: Others Will Dry
Vegetables.

Less than 500 people, it is estimat-
ed. will be temporarily out of work
when the breweries of Montana close.
Several of the plants have arrang-
ed to change over to other lines of
endeavor and it is possible that all of
them will do so, eventually.
Two of the largest breweries in the
state are to make artificial ice, others
are considering drying vegetables.
The total investment in breweries in
Montana is between $1,000, 900 and
$ 2 1000, 900. The total number of EN-.
ployees was never more than 1000 and
as operations have gradually beer
curtailed for some months, many OF
these have sought other work while
the due proportion has gone to war.
AS Montana is to go dry at mid
night December 81 next, the brewing
industry has long been prepared fol

even after rehabilitation begins. Sew

KAISER AS SEEN
BY BUTTE NAN
John Lindquist, Once World Famed
Athlete. Dined in the Kaiser's
Royal Palace.

Arrogant, c~onceited, egotistical,
bigoted, misguided"
That is a description Of the kaiser
given by a Butte man who knew him.
John Lindquist, one a world famous
athlete, met Wilhelm Hohenzollern
while participating in an internation-
al Olympic game at Berlin, several
years ago.
"Yet he gave n the impression of
being educated" says Mr.. Lindquist.
"He was suave and condescending.
However, he was too patronizing.
His manner was at ono ~condescend-
ing, and as l see it now, insulting.
1t was as if n of the gods had deign-
ed to walk and talk with common men.
He professed to be fond of athletics,
yet it is evident that he did not un-
derstand the meaning of the word
'sportsmanship.' He loved to be sur
rounded with military attaches, pomr
and glory. Even at that time there
was an expression in his eyes, which
limited at dreams of world power. He
wanted to be first in everything and
especially desired that German con
testants should carry away honors ir
the Olympic"
Mr.. Lindquist was formally present
ed to the kaiser and with other Olym'
pic contestants he visited the roya
palace and dined there.
OF the crown prince, he says: HI
seemed to be a sort of a good fellow
in his Prussian way. He was fond o.
dress, accoutrements and militar!
pomp. Shallow and narrow minded
yet he was a better sport than hi
father"
Mr.. Lindquist has met most of tn
crowned heads of Europe. The 9th
ers are democratic, unassuming, mod
est people. The British king and queen
he said, appeared as quietly dressed
dignified citizens.

Boat Attack While Wilson
Stands on Bridge of Liner.

on BOARD l.. s. S. GEORGE
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. tBy Wireless
to the Associated Press -President
Wilson stood on the bridge OF the
George Washington late yesterday and
saw a United States destroyer stage a
thrilling demonstration Of the work Of
repulsing a submarine attack. A touch
of realism was given by the drill OF
the men on board the liner n the con-
voying ships.
The great liner was gliding through
the tropical waters like a chip on a
duck pond, when bugles and alarm bells
called the men to battle stations. Presi-
dent Wilson was taken to the bridge
by Capt. McCauley, so that he might
get d better view.
\ destroyer which had been tagging
far astern. suddenly leaped forward,
her tunnels vomiting smoke and white
spray dashing from her bow as she
tore through the water at a clip OF 80
knots an hour. The destroyer came
abeam of the liner and dropped depth
bombs, sending great geysers high into
the air as the warship Zig-zagged its
way through the waters beneath which
was supposed to Turk the enemy sub
marine, Each explosion was distinctly
felt on board the George Washington.
The conclusions sounded like heavy
blows being struck against the side OF
the vessel.
President Wilson was most interest

I questions about it, going into the most
minute detail,

lieved, will be president Of the peace
conference. This is considered fitting
because the conference will be held In

President Wilson'S disposition is in
favor Of entirely public proceedings,
such as are carried on in the senate
chamber at Washington, with the press

report certain business. Naturally
