ported the contract for removing the
street ear tracks from the city streets

made for the work to be done at the
earliest possible time. Weather con-

STATES TO SAVE IN FREIGHT
ON SURPLUS WAR MATERIAL.

The various western states will save
considerable money in payment Of
freight on surplus wal material
through new rates that have been Sc
cured by the Bureau of Public Roads
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Large quantities of ma
terial are still being received by the
bureau and allotted to the states for
use in road construction.
Recently, through representation of
the bureau as to the character of the
material and the use to which it is to
be put, considerably lower rates have
been granted. On transcontinental
shipments, motor vehicles now take
a rate of go cents per hundred,
against a former all-rail rate rate of
S5.35; machinery, go cents per hum
bred, and similar reductions on other
classes of material.
These rates have been effective
only a short time, but have been i'm
mediately reflected in increased
| acquisitions from western states.

MONTANA RECEIVED
ROYALTY FROM Oil

The treasury of the state of Mon
tana received an income of $121 1897
from oil produced within its borders
in the two-year period which ended
June 80. of this year.
This sum represented by checks
for $43,168 and $78, POI received by
State Treasurer j. w. Walker, was
the states ~three-eights share of the
royalty collected by the federal gov
eminent from all oil production from
Montana lands on which Uncle Sam
owns the oil rights. The production
which paid the state this 1921 ,387
was entirely in the Cat Greek field,
as the Elk Basin field, the only other
one in Montana producing in mark
etable quantities during the two
years, has no production from gov
eminent leases.
1t is figured that at the present
rate of production in the Cat Creek
field, with a price of 81 a barrel for
oil, Montana may expect to receive
annually $172,80O as its portion of
the government royalty, according to
Carl c. Adams, field assistant to the
state board Of equalization.
The federal government now re-
ceives it's royalty portion in actual
crude oil and sells it to the United
States shipping board, which, by an
arrangement with the Midwest Re-
finery Company, delivers so barrels
Of Cat Greek oil at the field and re-
ceives 80 barrels of crude oil on the
Pacific coast, according to Mr.. Adams
This arrangement, which will expire
the end of this year, provides for the
payment to Uncle Sam by the ship
ping board on the basis of Cat Creel
field prices.
Because independent refineries nov
, operating in Montana have, according
to Mr.. Adams, consistently paid from
$1.75 to 1928 a barrel for oil, Gov
! ernor Joseph NJ. Dixon recently pro
posed to Secretary Of the Interior A
B. Fall that Montana hereafter re
ceive its share Of the federal royalt
: oil in crude oil direct from the fielt
instead of cash through the sale to tn
shipping board and its transfer agree

pany.

AS the royal yacht was approaching

(native csnoe). The Eskimo came on
board and his loyalty In having braved
the perils Of the sea In such q frail
craft assured him the warmest OF well

II cigar and, what the Esklmos most
highly prize, a rifle.
On landing, the king described the
incident to the Danish commissioners
In Greenland and asked him who the
man was.
