WALSH RETURNS
READY TO OPEN
CAMPAIGN WORK
Senator Will Cover State in Be.
half of Democratic
Ticket.

Completely refreshed from his ten
DAYS rest at his summer home at Lake
Mcdonald, Senator T. j. Walsh visited
Great Falls Monday on his way to
Helena to confer with Chairman j. e.
Erickson and Vice Chairman w. w.
Mcdowell. who are making up his 30
days speaking intinerary in the state in
behalf of the democratic national, state
and county tickets.
II never felt better in my life than
I do today said Montana's junior
senator. Il feel fit for the most siren
uous battle in my career and L shall
make q most intensive campaign for
B. X. Wheeler and the other democratic
candidates than l have ever made for
myself.
Il have known Mr.. Wheeler for near
" a quarter of a century and / am. sat
isfied that he is eminently qualified to
represent the people of Montana in
the United States senate. In the 10
years that l have been there l have had
opportunity to judge something OF the
calibre of men needed in our highest
Legislative body and it is not partisan
prejudice which forces me to say that
between Mr.. Wheeler and his republi-
can opponent there is but one choice
for Montana peonle who have the best
interests of the state at heart.
Those who met Senator Walsh dur
ing his stay in the city were impressed
by his excellent health and his determ-
nation to carry the democratic party's
message to the people.

NEVILLS WANTS GAS CONVENIENT
so STARTS WELL IN BACK YARD!
PLANS REPLACING OTHER FUELS

If there's gas within reaching dis
lance under the ground, it's down
right -uneconomical for a hotel man TO
continue to use fire wood in the range,
high-priced coal in the furnace, and
nav out good money for electric lights,
is the way II. p. Nevills, owner of the
Travellers hotel at Conrad, and a well
known hotel man of northern Montana,
has it figured out. II,
Nevills has seen wells being drilled
all around Conrad. A few miles east
he saw that they got gas at 300 and
at ooO feet. North in the old Dry
Forks we'll he saw gas and he figured
it ont that he ran a pretty good chance
of getting gas in Conrad. If there
was mining to be done. he figured it
ont that the pipe might as well run a
few hundred feet up and down, rather
than miles overland.
Waits Only for Crew
So il wills that residents of Conrad
were surprised n few mornings ago
70 get up and see a drilling rig perched
against the back porch of the Travellers
hotel 1t still stands there, ready to
snud in within four feet of the build
ing as soon as Il crew is obtained.
Nevills promises the prospective drill
lers the best camp in the northern
fields, with their choice of the best
rooms of the Travellers, and three
squares in the hotel dining room.
The rig to be used is a No. 20 Star
machine. 1t was purchased some time
ago by q group of persons of the north
ern part of the state to validate some
leases with the understanding that 1t
could be used by any one of the share
holders to drill on their property free
of charge. Nevills purchased the equity
of one of the shareholders and prompt
" moved the rig into Conrad. A COM
nlete string of tools is in readiness
for operations.
Calls in No Biologists
Nevills hasn't consulted any geolo-
gists regarding the spotting of the well,
figuring that on the size of the lot he
can decide where the gas well is going
to be most convenient. He hasn't an
nounced at what depth production is
anticipated.

OIL FOUND in

Flow.
Special to The Tribune.

special TO 1ne rlDunt.
Lethbridge, Alta. Sept. ga re
port was received late Monday night
from Coutts that the Border Oil com
pany had struck oil at q depth of S03
feet and that the crude oil flowed over
the casing for 10 minutes. 1t is be-
lieved here that only a pocket of gas
and oil was struck, as one report has
it that it was a strong gas, bearing
good traces Of oil, that was encoun-
tered.
The strike was made in the Colorado
sand, and is considered a promising
sign Of oil at a lower depth. The
Border Oils. an Edmonton concern, is
drilling in J.. S. z. See. 6-1-14, one
mile east of the Mclean well. If oil
was struck at 500 it was from a stray
sand not struck in the Mclean or
Baalim wells.
This is a week that tells the tale in
the border oil fields. With the Nc
Lean well standing at 1900 feet Sun

thing definite should be known by Sat
urday night. Indications on Sunday

Through a typographical error IN

pany's Maley we'll on section 1851

Their than the facts warranted.
The mistake was in the printing OF
a report from Shelby. The message
as sent by the Shelby correspondent OF
The Tribune was correct. In that re-
port. one paragraph dealt with the
MaIey well. reporting that It was some
1850 feet down, and the following par,

on section 1862 w. said that well
was down 1.7S5 feet and two feet into
the Madison without commercial pro-
ductiOn.
In calling attention to the mistake

Maley was Monday 1850 feet and had
not yet encountered the Sunburst sand

INDEPENDENT
CLOSES line
IN CAT CREEK
Colgrove Charges That Big
Company's Propaganda Is
Responsible.

Charging that propaganda has been
used against the Independent Pipe Line
company in Cat Creek with the result
that it has failed to command crude to
the amount necessary for economical
operation. c. W. CoIgrove of Minneap-
oils. president of the Independent, an
nounced Monday while a visitor in
Great Falls that his organization will
make a fight against what he said was
the work of the Standard Oil com
panies.
Closed During Fight
The Independent has shut down and
will remain closed until the fight with
the companies which he charges with
working against his company has been
closed and contracts for production
made that insure an adequate demand
for service.
COlgrove issued a statement in which
be said:
THE Independent Pipe Line. as a
result of the insidious propaganda that
has been spread by opposing companies
has been forced to shut down for want
of oil to carry. II will reopen as soon
as sufficient contracts have been made
to insure proper operation. The com
pany proposes to make the organiza.
lions that have been responsible for its
losses to pay what is due it.
Predict More Discoveries
Colgrove said hat he believed that
the possibilities of Cat Creek are yet
far from being realized and that deeper
drilling will bring even greater produc-
ton than has yet been opened up.
When this time comes, he said, he felt
that the Independent would occupy a
position that will be an important one
in the development of the field.
He cited instances which, he said.
were the result Of activity of the larger
companies in opposition to the in
dependent line.

FOREST SHOWS
WAYS TO SAVE
TIMBER STAND
Intensive Management in Eff
feet in Little Rocky
District.

The Little Rockies in eastern Mon
tana are becoming a demonstration
ground of intensive forest management.
according to Supervisor ". B. Wiley
of the Jefferson forest, who returned
Sunday night from a trip through that
part Of the forest. He was accompa-
MED by e. j. Yeomans, assistant SUI
pervisor.
The fact that the Little Rockies
provide the only timber in a consider
able territory has resulted in every
effort being made by the forest Off
Gals to conserve it, Wiley said. 1t
has only been the last few years, how
ever, that it has been done in~tensively.
In this the service has been aided by
the fact that there has been a slight
s%lackening of demand.
Had the demand continued at the
rate of 1918, the forest would now be
on a fair way to exhaustion, he pointed
out. The mines, however, at that
time closed down and this made it
possible for the timber to hold its
own. Cutting was watched carefully
and thinning practiced with good re
suits. There is a fair growth now of
yellow pine in the Little Rockies.
The manner in which cutting is being
done to keep a good growth of seed
lings has worked out well, he said.
The trip was made into that part
of the forest in order to look after
timber sales to the Ruby Gulch Min
ing company, which again is beginning
operations IN its property with 45 men
at work. The company is putting in a
new water project for its mill and in
it's operations will have considerable
demand for timber. This will neces-
state even more judicious handling of
the forest than ever. with the need of
keeping the mines supplied.

that prove to be the case, it would in
dictate that the formation is about the

All the water in the Mclean vel

port that the Mclean well had struck
gas is untrue. Meanwhile the Baalim
well. the next furtherest advanced, is

ROrARIANs HOLD REGULAR
WEEKLY LUNCHEON

Concert company in town." was
the inquiry outside the Tea Room on
Monday noon. mo. only the Rotary
club practicing their songs" was the
answer. The new songs appeared Ia
be mostly old favorites with especially
adapted words and some popular uelo-
dies.
However, this was only small part
Of the program of the luncheon which
occupies m hour every Monday noon.
OF the seventeen members, attendance
has been 100 per cent for the first
two meeting Of April and only one
was absent April II.
The Rotary Club which has been
organized In this city, has one rule.
which It states emphatically, must not
be violated. This is the rule in regard
to attendance. Every club has .
clause in its constitution whereby q
member is automatically dropped from
membership II he misses three meet
ings in succession. To this rule ID
attributed one of the reasons for the
remarkable efficiency of Rotary. A
careful record Of each members at
tendance is kept by the secretary and
nothing short Of sickness or death
can excuse q member. Absence from
the city is no excuse, for there is rule
whereby o member may attend the
meeting Of q Rotary Club in any city
and receive credit for attendance just
as II he had been present at the meet
ing of his own club.
Rotary Clubs thus hold an enviable
record for high percentage of attend
ance at meetings. Clubs with as many
as two and three hundred members,
have as high as eighty per cent Of
their members present meeting after
meeting. In some of the twenty-four
Rotary districts having jurisdiction
over as many as forty and fifty clubs,
weekly percentage of attendance Of
from seventy to eighty per cent is
maintained for the entire districts.
New records for high attendance per
centage are continually being made
and as quickly broken BY some club
members. The latest achievement has
been by club on the Pacific coast
with sixty members, which has made
the remarkable and heretofore un-
heard OF record Of 100 per cent at
tendance, or every member present,
not only at one meeting-which would
be an unusual record in itself-but q
100 per cent attendance at seven con.
secutive meetings. The nearby Mont
rose club had a 100 per cent attend
ance record for its February meetings.
At the meeting Monday Judge e.
NJ. Nourse was the principal speaker,
the general principles OF
Rotary and its motto: "He profits
most who serves best" The profit,
It was stated, consisted not Of pecuni-
ary profit, but Of the better ideals Of
life and business generated by the de-
sire to serve and the actual process
Of assisting in community welfare.
