Hogan sighed 'It is the fortune
of war; he said sadly. Then revers-
ing his pen knife, with the blade in
his hand. he handed it to the colonel,
with low bow and the remark,
please accept my sword"
For a moment the colonel seemed
about to have an apoplectic fit, then
not even military austerity was proof
against his sense of humor, and he
joined in the roar of laughter that
came from the Coxeyites.
Hogan was tried in Helena on the
charge of stealing a train, and served
several months in prison, but his
earnest contention that he had been
double-crossed by the railroad peo-
pie seemed to have made some i'm
preston on the court, as he was soon
released and returned to Butte,
where he was for number of years
prominent in the reform and labor
movement.
Besides being a speaker of great
ability, wonderful organizer, and
possessing a charming personality,
Billy Hogan was one of the best read
men it has ever been my fortune
to meet. His honesty and integrity,
no one, even his critics and enemies,
ever doubted. His knowledge of Eng
lish literature was remarkable. Es-
pecially was this true regarding
Shakespeare, though he by no means

Hogan reading his ''The Humanity

He was fairly launched into his
subject when from the ante-room
came loud voices and a resounding
bang, followed by dull thuds. The
chairman called on miner standing
near to investigate the cause of the
racket. Hogan, who in spite of the
noise outside, was holding the atten-
ton of his audience, read on imper-

The California Company, one o.
the largest of the Standard Oil sub
salaries, few days ago, paid S105,-
600 in cash for 480 acres of clOse-ir
land, adjoining the Sunburst discoy-
cry. Government permit land in the
same neighborhood will bring the
California company's holdings in that
particular section up to $50 acres.
Permit land, offsetting the Steven
son we'll, recently brought as high
as $500 per acre, while land further
away and included in the same deal
sold down to $3.50.
This land was acquired from Cor
don Campbell, discoverer of the dis
trict, Arbe Beardslee, his principal
hacker, and the Rhoades syndicate,
group of Great Falls and Lewistown
men, who also helped to finance
Campbell in his quest of oil. Aside
from Campbell, the man who will
profit most by this deal is Beardslee,
a former Beaverhead county flock
master, who had the pluck 60 get
behind Campbell with his money at
a time when oil in the Kevin district
looked like high card gamble. Fol
lowing the strike things have been
coming Beardslee's way in rapid ia
shion He has taken in more real
hard cash, upwards of 100000, than
any other man interested in the north
and with the game still young, is
holding thousands of acres of good
1easeholds.
The Rhoades syndicate, of which
Judge DUSTY" Rhoades of Great
Falls is the head, profits something
like $50, by this deal The AZ
members of this syndicate put up
$11, 900 for Campbell in his need,
some six months ago, and have
drawn down something in excess of |
five dollars for every dollar advanc-
ed, not poor return in these times. |
In addition to the cash, the Rhoades |
syndicate, Campbell and Beardslee |
each retain five per cent royalty |
hich should be productive of excel
lent returns. The deal was nego-
tiated through Al Palmer, manager
of the California company, a powerful
subsidiary of the Standard Oil Co.
The Ohio company, a Standard
which, with the Midwest,
dominates the Wyoming fields, has
also been a heavy buyer during the
past week, having made extensive
purchases of leases in the neighbor- ]
hood of the Campbell we'll It's hold
ings run into several thousand acres,
and it is said to be planning an ex- {
-ensive development campaign, with {
a train-load of drilling rigs and
equipment on the way. Incidentally t
It should be said that the Ohio COM

and, finally, driller, finishing up with
course in oil at the University OF
Minnesota.
Lucky in Oil
Lucky speculation in oil lands net
ted Bill his first real fortune, and
with some 700 in cash, he re-
turned to western Canada and fitted
out a drilling crew to go to McMur-
ray His crew reached the Athabasca
in 1904, and in 1905 had made good
progress, but a heavy vein of salt
closed down their efforts, and for the
next four years Bill drilled and drill
ed in vain, finally deciding that luck
was against him for oil finding, and
that his first love, the bitumen sands,
should be his last.
Then for 15 years Bill bombarded
the government at Ottawa with stor-
,es of the vast possibilities of the
McMurray tar sands. Nobody would
listen to him, and he earned the title
by which he is known today when he
pressed his claim for tar sand de-
posits that outrivaled the famous
bitumen deposit at Trinidad in value.
At last the Alberta government list
ened to his urgings, and today there
is more than a possibility that "Bitu-
men Bill'' McMurray's tar sands may
in a few years pave many roads, and
that the crazy scheme of a half-mad
prospector may yet solve the road
making troubles of every clay road
area in the whole of Canada
New York Times.
The Wolf Point herald., 1922-06-29

Five hundred miles north of Ed
monton, capital city of the Canadian
province of Alberta, away north o.
55, the great Athabasca river, a mile
wide, flows into the Athabasca lake
5000 square miles in area.
At McMurray, just before the river
joins the lake, it widens into sandy
flats, heavily impregnated with tar,
or bitumen. 1t was these sands which
20 years ago captured the imagina-
tion of "Bitumen Bill" sending him
1900 miles east to Ottawa, capital
city of Canada, with the news of a
wonderful road-making discovery
which nobody believed, and earning
for him the sobriquet which has
stayed with him through all the
years.
At Edmonton today, at the modern
university in that progressive city,
experts are taking s'Bitu-
men Bill's' crazy ideas seriously.
They have discovered means of eX-
tracing the bitumen from the sands
of the Athabasca river, and they are
on road surfaces with
the extracted bitumen, and also with
the bitumen sands.
The province of Alberta has hun
dreds of thousands of miles of roads.
Most of them are only clay roads,
which are quite all right when dry,
but which rapidly reach stage of
utter impassability following rain or

nection whatever. The California
company has been particularly active
in acquiring land on the Rocky
Ridge dome, while the Ohio has been
picking up ground on the other side
and nearer to the Sunburst we'll
One of the strong Montana leasing
companies organized during the past
week at Great Falls was the North
ern Montana Exploration Company,
which filed articles of incorporation
with capital stock of 100000. This
company is headed by Leonard G.
Diehl, business manager of the Great
Falls Tribune, as president; DR.. D.
X. Woods of Great Falls, vice-presi-
dent; and j. w. Mckenzie, president
of the Northwest Farm Mortgage Co.
Great Falls, secretary and treasurer.
The Northern Montana Exploration
Company was organized solely for
the purpose of acquiring acreage on
proven oil structures and the locating
and leasing of new potential oil
