on Market Quotations


Reports that there is shortage Of
gasoline, and that the situation is be-
coming more and more acute each
day are branded as false, and as prop
aganda, according to statement
made By j. J. kerins OF Ringing,
general superintendent In charge OF
the output division of the Mid-Con-
t.nent Oil and Refining company.
Mr. Kerins has been in the refining
industry for over 80 years, and is
one Of the pioneers Of the oil game
He came to this territory from Penn
sy!vania where he had been similar
ly employed.
Mr.. Kerins states that the general
market for gasoline and the products
0! the refineries is stagnant. Most
jobbers, ne explains. filled their storage
TO capacity Immediately preceding the
freight rate advance and gives as an
other reason the decrease of demand
fer gasoline at this time of the year,
due TO what may really be termed a
change Of seasons" The refinery
people do not look for any relief TO
the situation until after the winter
months have passed. During the past
few weeks the gasoline refining price
has gone down an average of cents
per gallon while the retail price has
gone down but cent in certain Sec
lions OF the country. The tank wa
son price Is still holding its own.
Should the price of crude oil ad-
vance 25 cents, states Mr.. Kerins,
many OF the smaller refineries will be
forced out Of business, for they have
no market for their products, and
with the stringent measures which the
banks have adopted in. reference 10
oil mems credits 1t will be absolutely
impossible for the smaller refineries
10 keep their plants in operation.
Also, the measures adopted as stand
ard BY the state inspection bureau
are such that refinerles are prohibited
from extracting a maximum amount
Of gasoline from the crude OIL and so
lose much money in this respect
In speaking OF the shortage which
was prevalent in California and other
western states several months ago,
Mr.. kerins states that 1t was due
10 local conditions at those places. And
the reason the states affected at that
time. he explained. did not get gaso-
line from states where the product
was Plentiful was due TO the fact that
cities In the states where there was
a shortage passed ordinances which
held the price OF gasoline so low that
II was absolutely prohibitve for the
jobbers In California and the other
places TO bring the gasoline from
other fields, However the ordinances
were later modified in their provisions
and several trains Of gasoline filled

Much placer cold unreeIaimed.

The total placer gold produced in
Alaska has a value of s21S,OOO.OOO
Much of this has been won from the
rich bonanza deposits whose exploita-
ton requires little capital. It is not
impossible that other rich placers will
be found, but the only certain re-
serves of placer gold are in the ex-
tensive deposits of auriferous gravels
containing comparatively small gold
values. These must be exploited by
mechanical methods involving large
investments. Including in the reserves
only the auriferous gravels, of which
some test has been made and which
are believed to carry enough gold to
warrant exploitation under pre-war
economic conditions, the geological
survey estimates that the Alaska

MICA.
A Common Mineral, But Commercial
Grade Hard to End.


1--WE are interested in the mica mar
poets are of successfully developing a
property in this country that looks
rather favorable to u.s."
Although mica is a common mineral,
and is found extensively in the United
States. the special grades that are re-
quired by the trade are not so plenti-
full In fact, foreign mica, from India,
Canada, and elsewhere. is imported and
is generally able better to fill the rigid
requirements demanded. If the mine
is to be worked purely as a source OF
mica. a favorable location with re-
gard to transportation and milling is
essential II is seldom that a mica
property is worked for its available
grindable product. and a good grade
of sheet mica must usually be produced
to make the operation profitable. But
sheet mica, to be marketable, must
yield rectangles that are at least one
and a half by two inches and must
split readily and be reasonably free
from foreign material and cracks. To
yield this size of uncut sheet, the rough
trimmed mine product must be much
larger. The deposit should also con-
tain mica that will furnish larger I'M
cut sheets. In the ordinary mica pros
pect the mineral contains many i'm
'perfections, such as cracks. holes, and
specks that render it unfit for CONNER
cial use According to the u. S. geo.
logical survey. good sheet mica, a
thousandth of an inch thick, can read
lily be bent into a cylinder one quarter
of an inch in diameter without showing
cracking. Before attempting to work
your property you should endeavOr to
obtain all the information possible re-
garding the quality of your mica and
the grade of mica that it is likely to
produce. Prospective mica producers
should proceed carefully about their
enterprises Engineering and Mining

e. ii. WILLIAMS
of Powell County
Candidate for Lieutenant-Governor

Thirty-eight years ago this month
our neighbor, Charlie Williams, with
young wife and baby, located on a
homestead in the lower Deer Lodge
Valley. He has lived on that ranch
continuously from that day to the pre-
sent, and is today recognized as one Of
the most extensive farmers and stock
men in our valley. We have always
known him as a rancher and stockman
and good neighbor. For eight years
he has, served us in the Montana Leg
islature as our State Senator. Our
confidence in him and his good citi-
zenship was such that we his neigh
bors have persuaded him that the
rancher and stockman of his type was
entitled to representation. in the high
offices of this state. We accordingly
have his consent to advancing him as
a candidate for Lieutenant Governor
in the Republican primaries. We be-
lieve, and we pledge to the Republic
can and people of this state, that
if he is nominated and elected he will,
in the discharge of his duties, exercise
the same good judgment and sound
discretion that has made him not only
a successful farmer, stockman and bus
inessman, and good neighbor as we'll,
but also one of the best representa-
tives that Powell County has had in
the Montana State Senate.
We, therefore, respectfully ask your
support for c. H. Williams for Lieut.
enant Governor in the Republican pri-
maries August Oath, 1920.

R0BT. l. CLINTON
Republican Candidate Says:

Believing that these ar days of reconstruction after the war, in
government, in order to perfect these reforms the candidate, if
elected, must be entirely free to act upon his best judgment.
In the first place, it is probably agreed by all candidates that the
expense of conducting the state If Montana has greatly exceeded all
calculations. 1t has grown from something like 100000 pc year %
something like 100000 per year. We believe that this is the result
of m party too long in power, not S o much a IN individual criticism as
the usual abuse of a power long held. We have gotten away from
the saloon and the political convention and the organization of poll
tics along these lines; it mea something new; it means a change
from the old political government to a e business government, or
confscaton of property through taxation, and nothing short of rad
icl improvement will satisfy the public mind.
as theVaw gives is power, to proceed to make the order Of
things. We also believe that if the primary law has any merit, it is
to develop the personality IF men; it is to permit men to come for
ward with the public approval, which the primary law gives, and il
nominated and elected, that they "a serve the public interests and
listen to the public demand.
The state is normally republican and always has been, but for
the governor. We think the folks should carefully investigate, be-
cause the folks have the votes and a name whoever they may will,
and it is up to the folks, rather than to small groups of men whether
non-partisan n otherwise, to name the candidate of this great state
for governor.
