Special to The Daily Tribune.
Helena, April 6.-Judge Rex B. Good
cell, speaker in the northwest for Hiram
w. johnson, was unable to pull Off
o. H. T. Shelley, former progressive
champion, in his efforts to name the
next Republican national committeeman
from Montana. Mr.. Goodcen spoke in
aFo and reeurDed to see Shelley follow
ing the 11th hour filing Of eight Repub-
lican delegate candidates, who are on
record favoring the johnson boom and
will vote for him at the national conven-
ton if elected.
If the delegates are elected they will
also name the next national committee
man from Montana and the move made
in filing petitions at the last minute has
stirred up another row in the Repubhcan
ranks in this state.
The secretary Of state is checking over
the list of signatures and petitions for
all candidates before notifying county
clerks of the names to be put on the
ballots.
In this connection more trouble has
arisen over technicalities in regard to
these delegates. The question now arises
whether nominating petitions shall con
tain the signature Of one circulator who
swears to the correctness of all OF them
or whether the circulator OF each sheet
with its list of names shall certify as to
the correctness of petitions.
The eight Republican candidates for
delegate who filed completed petitions
on the last day are all at the head OF the
ticket. They are John Adami Jr; Of He5,
Ansn; 1inss; SisnsgXi Miss 4 II. T Anderson. Helena;

ORGANIZED warfare
Upon GOPHER PESTS
WAG|NG F|jR|0US[Y
Farmers in Eight Townships
Near Big Sandy Form to
Poison Rodents.

Special to The Daily Tribune.
Fort Benton, April 6.-Real organ
lied warfare is being waged against the
gopher pest in the Big Sandy district.
Eight townships have perfected their or
ganization and committeeman are busy
making plans for poison bait distribu-
ton on all lands.
All resident owners are being urged
to poison their lands before April IL and
notices have been sent to all landowners
to exterminate the gophers within 10
days or the county exterminators will
proceed to do SO, charging the expense
to the taxes Of the land. Free bait is
furnished for all state and govern
ment lands but the distribution must be
done by volunteers.
The plan of organization is simple.
Each township is divided into districts
in charge Of a Committeeman, who is re-
sponsible for making arrangements for
poisoning all lands in his district. He
selects exterminators, estimates amount
Of bait needed and assists in making ar
rangements for the volunteer drives.
Concerted effort for a couple of years
will effectually rid a country Of the
gopher pest Any other method means
continual warfare from year to year.

Try This If You
Have Dandruff

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruf completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with IT,, finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace Of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp viii stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous.
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
. hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail.

Conrad. April Ga party OF prominent
business men and capitalists OF Mtse0ula
and Billings, headed by George =. Rice.
formerly president of the Missoulian Puo-
fishing company, spent several days IN
Conrad and vicinity last week, and Mon,
day announced that they had fimsneo
leasing practically the whole OF the small
bench seven miles west Of this city, and
would start drilling for oil just as soon
rs the necessary machinery and equip
ment could be put on the ground.
The land leased comprises about 7!uOV
acres. which forms a prominence west OF
town that is believed by oil experts and
biologists to form the dome OF q large
area in this section Of the state which Is
underlaid with oil. Mr.. Rice and his as
sociates state that the structure is al.
most perfect from the point OF view r. OF
an oil producing, formation, and they
enthusiastically declare it to be one OF
the most promising fields in Montana.
For number of years this district has
attracted the attention Of oil experts.
Dry Hole Drilled.
The Conrad Oil and Development com
ranv nut down n we'll on the Dry Fork.
three miles north of this city, two years
ago. This well was drilled to depth Of
nearly 1000 feet, and heavy flow OF
gas was struck, and strong indications OF
oil were found. Work was stopped be-
cause of lack of funds. The developing
company was financed largely by local
capital The drilling outfit and all ma
chincry was sold last winter to Colorado
concern, who it was understood expected
to move the rig from this district. Inc
rig has never been moved. however, and
still stands on the Dry Fork location, and
this fact is taken to indicate that oil men
still believe that this is a likely field,
and that further development would some
time be carried on.
ceoIoslsts Make Survey.
Following the operations Of this COM
pany, government geologists made q
complete survey Of this district. and IT
is understood that it is as a result OF
the government reports thus obtained
that attention was called to the district
west of town. 1t is pointed out that
the log of the we'll previously drilled, and
the survey Of the biologists, prove con-
clusively that this district is an oil bear,
ing area, and that the bench west OF
town. where operations are now to start
is much more promising than the lowe!
lands where the former well was drilled
After making thorough investigator
of the field, a syndicate was formed tc
handle the proposition, and severa
weeks ago, r. G. Poland, former state
auditor. and J. W. Ellis. of Billings. ap'
peared on the ground and set about ob.
tanning leases on the bench under which
it is believed the coveted Oil lays II
greatest quantity. and is most acces
sible. Ellis and Poland were successful
in signing up practically all Of the lant
on the bench. and this week their as
sociates appeared and personally in
spected the land. and upon returnin,
from the field were most enthusiastic
about the prospects. and made the an
nouncement that work would start a
once.

426 MILES Of ROAD
Projected IN STATE
UNDER FEDERAL AID
Bureau Chief at Washington
Tells Evans What Highway
Board Has Done.

Special to The Daily Tribune.
Washington, April 6.-Representative
Evans has received from the bureau of
public roads, department of agriculture,
a letter showing what Montana is doing
in the way of highway construction with
federal aid.
This bureau" said Thomas H. Mac
Donald, chief of the bureau of public
roads, "is not advised as to road work
done other than in cooperation with
this department under the federal aid
road act. Up to December 81, 1919,
there had been submitted by the state
highway commission Of Montana and ap-
proved by this department, 50 federal
aid projects, involving the improvement
Of 426.1 miles of roads at an estimated
cost Of $2,O2S, S,OO5.13, and on which fed
Grad aid in the amount Of 81 ,O04, ,2552.53
was requested.
Twelve Additional Projects.
"Construction work on number of
these projects was in progress during
1919 and up to Dec 81 progress pay
ments aggregating $14,90O.4j had been
made for work done. Since the above
date other payments of federal funds
were made up to Feb. %, 1920. amount
ing to $29.6337j. Also. up to Feb. %
twelve additional projects had been sub
mited and approved by this department
making the total number Of all projects
approved on that date 6j, involving a
total of 55OO9 miles Of road estimated
to cost S3.25S.4s1.S2, and on which !
total of S1,6O9 49O.S7 federal aid is re-
quested. 1t is presumed that construc-
ton work on all or most of these pro-
jects will be in progress at sometime
during the current year.
Department Handicapped.
THE highway department of Mon
tana has been very much handicapped
because of the provisions Of article II
section So, Of the state constitution
which provides in part that no county
shall incur any Indebtedness or liability
for any single purpose to an amount ex-
ceeding $4,000 without the approval ol
a majority Of the electors thereof, vot
ing at an election to be procided by Law
The state could have made much great
er progress in it's federal aid work il
this provision of the constitution ha'
been amended so as to allow the coun
ties to incur large liability for roa'
Improvement purposes.
