The Powder River County examiner and the Broadus independent., 1919-12-26

A few months ago, when the
writer learned that he was to
come to Powder RIVER County, he
inquired from people who had
been here, concerning the coun-
try. invariably the reply was
that it is a good country, but too
far from a railroad. consoled
myself with the idea that if it was
a good country that was all that
was necessary, but am now in
clined to believe that my advisors
were rieht--we are too far from a
railroad. They were also right
when they told me 1T is a good
country" only they did not tell
me just how good it really was.
We have thousands and thous-
ands OF acres OF the best bottom
land in Montana, laying along
Powder River. Little Powder and
the many other streams flowing
into Big Powder. The most of
this land is still in its primitive
state, unturned and uncultivated.
Artesian wells are as numerous
as prairie dog holes in a dog town.
he entire country from here to
the Wyoming line is underlaid
with coal, the veins averaging
from ten to twenty feet deep.
lthink that everyone will agree
with me that we have a great
country. but unless we develop
our country and utelize its re.
sources we will never become
prosperous. Development and
progress is absolutely impossible
without a railroad.
The conditions in Powder Riv.
er County at the present time are
very much the same as they were
The Powder River County examiner and the Broadus independent., 1919-12-26
REASONS WHY POWDER RIVER
COUNTY NEEDS A RAILROAD

during Washington's administra-
ton in our east coast cities when
two coaches hauled all the pas
sengers and freight between Bos-
ton and New York, then the two
leading commercial centres. The
mail service between these two
cities was even better than ours
is at the present time. In 1880,
less than a century ago, Chicago
was but a very small village. and
without the railroads would still
be in the same class. In 1923 there
was but three miles of railroad in
the United States, and nine years
later we had fifteen hundred miles
of track, and today there in con-
siderable over two hundred thous-
and miles of railroad, and we
have five trans-continental lines.
| he total value OF our railroads
and their equipment is estimated
to be over sixteen billions of dol
lars, practically 40 per cent of the
value of the industries of the
nation.
History tells us that the prog
ress made in the past fifty years
could never have been made with
out railroads, and the same rule
applies right here in our own
county We are at dead stand
still--We can't turn a wheel until
we have a railroad.
Some Of our residents have ex-
claimed that they do not want a
railroad, that a railroad would
hamper their business: Some Of
our basil'>:,s Aen, 50 we under
stand, have made the remark
that they do not want a railroad.

W0BBuES PLAN TO BLOW UP
OklANOMA-KANSAS OIL FIELDS

Threats attributed to |. w. w.
to blow up the oil fields of Kansas
and Oklahoma were introduced
in testimony last week at the trial
of 32 members of the oreaniza-
ton charged with violation of the
espionage act in the federal dis
trict court in Kansas City, Kas.
The testimony was in the form
of a letter, the writing of which
was identified by a government
expert as that of Phineas East
man, secretary of the local I.W.W.
union at Augusta, kas., in 1917.
Excerpts from the letter follow:
AT your first move, up go your
homes and pipe lines and tanks"
"One box Of matches can whip
the whole country"
The letter was addressed to
Clyde Graham, secretary of the
Augusta Chamber of Commerce.
Additional evidence tending to
show the activities of the I.W.W.
in resisting the selective service
law was introduced in the trial.
The government presented a let
ter alleged to have been written
by Eastman which contained a
resolution adopted by the Angus
ia union of the organization in re-
gard to opposition to universal
service.
The letter, introduced through
J. & Shearman, a handwriting ex-
pert, was addressed to w. y. Hay
wood. at Chicago.
That the lett untainit1s the
resolution is proof of a conspiracy
on the part of the I. W. w. to op-
pose the selective service act and

way Service Stalls.

As a result Of practical suspension
OF transit service all over the city for
twenty minutes this morning, the
usual opening OF the New York stock
Exchange at 10 o'clock was deferred
until 1880. When the Exchange
opened announcement was made that
so many OF the members had been
delayed in reaching their offices by
the transportation breakdown that
the Exchange would be closed to re-
open half an hour later.
All lnterborough trains, green
car" surface lines and many trains
on the Brooklyn Rapid Transit sys-
TEN were tied up just after the peak
of the rush hour. The short circuit
ing Of an oil switch in the main
power house at 50th Street and 11th
Avenue was given as the cause.
Thousands rushing to their places
Of business were held up. From 90S
until 9.2S not a subway or elevated
train in Manhattan or the Bronx
moved. Trains on the Brooklyn and
Manhattan bridges were stalled. Traf-
hc was suspended on the West End
and Sea Beach lines in Brooklyn.
Much excitement was caused In the
subways by the lights going out %
the trains. although there was no
suggestion OF n panic. The greatest
confusion occurred at the transfer
points and at busy stations, particu-
lurly at the Grand Central ana Penn
sylvania stations, where thousands
were transferring from commuters
trains to the marlborough subways.
TaXicab drivers reaped a harvest.
The telephone system was swamped.
No inforamtlun was available as to
the probable length OF the tic-up, and
those who could sought other means
Of getting downtown. Cross town
