at each dam. If the water from the
springs came from the river, lis
source could be easily traced, Scotch
said. He admitted, however, that the
source of the waters of the spring is
mystery to him.
A theory evolved years ago, ana
still talked by those who remem per
the legends of the disappearing
waters of Sun river, is tnat the
crystal pool that bubbles 70 the
earths surface on the banks OF the
Missouri and called Giant Springs
has its source many miles north ana
west of Great Falls, in the waters
that have seeped from Sun river. IL
has long been believed that there is
subterranean flow from sun river
near it's headwaters. Biologists say
that the rock qualification of the
structure of this part of Montana is
such that the water may follow us
subterranean course until it again
flows to the earth's surface and form
Giant Springs. Others find 1t diff
cult to follow such theory.
Some have hazarded opinions that
the water may have some relation to
big spring at Lewistown; others
have said that it is an artesan flow,
and at times during the many discus
sions of the source of the spring the
water has been traced by opinion
from every direction and every angle
of direction from where it meets
the day.
Last year the Montana Power COM
pany, in cooperation with the Great
Falls Townsite company, attempted
to strike the underground current
leading to the springs by drilling
seven wells above the springs, but
efforts to locate it failed.

5000 AUTOMOBILES
DODGE TAX LEVY
ESTIMATED THAT THERE ARE
10000 CARS IN MONTANA;
NOT ALL ARE ASSESSED
Assessment on $1,000 Which Have
Been Reported Shows Falling off
in Value from 1878 to $500; High
est Assessed Value on Average is
from Lewis and Clark With S456.

Assuming that the office of the
secretary of state, through which reg
listration of motor vehicles is made,
| is correct in its estimate that there
are 10000 motor vehicles in the state
subject to the state license, approx
mately 5000 motor vehicles escaped
property taxation for the year 1922.
Assessment returns of the asses
sors of the 54 counties Of the state
show, upon tabulation in the office
of the state board of equalization, a
total of 49,346 cars assessed in 81
counties of the state, with the assess
ment reports silent as to the number
of cars assessed in Lincoln, Teton
and Daniels counties. Those coun-
ties in 1921 reported total of 1907
automobiles. Presenting that the
same number was taxed in those
counties in 1922 would give a grand
total of 51,053 cars taxed this year.
$4,000 Licenses Out
Licenses have been obtained from
the secretary of state, as state regis
trar of motor vehicles, for over &c.
600 automobiles, some of which, of
course, were purchased after March
1, the date upon which property in
the state becomes liable for 1922
taxation.
Although this total of automobiles
assessed in the various counties is
nearly 10000 greater than in 1919,
the value placed upon them for tax
purposes has decreased.
In 1919 cars were assessed in the
aggregate number of 31,959, and the
total assessment was S15,854,694,
while the total in 1922, with the
three counties estimated on the 1921
was 51,053, with total val
uation of SIS, 155,051.

GIANT SPRINGS
SOURCE MYSTERY
EFFORTS OF BIOLOGISTS WHO
HAVE TRIED TO FIND WHERE
WATER COMES FROM FUTILE
May Be Subterranean Flow From
Head of Waters of Sun River or
From Some Other Source, but so
Far No One Has Been Able to Put
Forth Theory and Prove 1t.

'You guess north and I'll guess
south. A couple of you other lads pick
east and west and we'll whirl the
put and take And then we'll prob
ably all lose.
Just passing remark, that, in
reference, musingly, to the source of
the water that flows always with the
crystal beauty of a perfect fountain,
Giant springs, three miles northeast
of Great Falls. Not such bad
gamble at that. The gods Oft offer
greater odds.
To the casual tourist it is spring,
a beautiful one, whose waters are
as cool as the glaciers and sparkle
with the life of old wine as they flow
over the rocks, a stream of azure into
the drab Missouri, but after all just
water, to quench the thirst Geo
logists have looked into the blue
depths of the spring and wondered
then figured, then guessed. So you,
too, may toss a guess into the sky
and when it falls it may touch the
key that has unlocked the gate of a
magic we'll. You see, Horace, nobody
knows.
1t is an old story, but yet one al
ways new. For there are always more
to wonder, to figure, and finally, to
guess, for none can be sure he's right
and most can be sure they're wrong.
There are biologists who say that
the spring is seepage water from
the Missouri river, as it is located
near the bank of the river. This the
DRY was exploded by Frank Scotch,
engineer and district manager of the
Montana Power company. The COM
pany has seven dams in the Missouri
river, five of them above Giant
Springs, and every foot of the water
that flows in the river is measured

creek, and we were also informed it
would be no easy matter to take him
because there were several despera-
does residing in that neighborhood.
A Spaniard named Manucle volun-
teered to accompany us, and we ar
rived at wild Cat Bill's" lodge about
10 D. m. Bill, having been made ac-
quainted with our errand, said:
"Of course, take that fellow in
side. The d. scoundrel sold me one
of those stolen horses for winters
grub and accommodation.
The night of the oath to the 18th
we encamped at Johnny Grants with
the two prisoners in custody. l was
on watch at midnight when the door
suddenly opened and Bill Hambleton
appeared with a bowie knife in one
hand and revolver in the other. He
said:
81 shan't allow none of Mullan's
d men to take any white men out
of Deer Lodge valley without the par
ties choose to go voluntarily"
1t was all he said for an evident
necessity for rest just about that time
caused him to slide down on the
floor where we left him sleeping the
next morning.
We took our Christmas dinner and
supper on Gold creek with the
Stuart boys, Fred Burr and other
old-timers. They wished us to re-
main for the night and some of them
advised the hanging of the prisoners
to leave us at liberty for a good time.
To cut long story short, we sue
ceeded in bringing the prisoners into
the presence of Lieutenant Mullan,
who, having ELECTED an acknowledge
ment of their guilt, sentenced them
to the care of Lieutenant Marsh.
They were chained together and did
work during the winter.
In the spring of 1862 they were re-
leased and went to Idaho.

ever made within this territory.

geological conditions in these two locations

Then it should be matter of days or
weeks at the most until the Lincoln well

Average Value $500

In 1921 the number of cars assess
ed was increased to $1,000, with a
total valuation of 18,S85,292 and an
average value of $373.S4, while in
1922 the total number of cars reach
ed by the assessors appear to have
been approximately 51,053, with a
total valuation of s15,155,051, and
an average value of $290.53.
The inclination in nearly all the
counties seems to have been to re-
duce the valuations, with the excep-
ton of Flathead county, which, while
returning a lesser number of cars,
increased the valuation per car.
In 1921 this county listed 2,O11
cars, with an average value of $685.
Sc, while in 1922 only 1,745 were
listed, with an average of S414.O3.
The highest assessments by county
we're made in Lewis and Clark, which
in 1921 taxed 1899 cars an average
of $561.15 and in 1922 it found
1912 cars with an average value of
$456.13.
On the other hand, the lowest av-
erage valuation is that of Liberty
county, where it figures $159.55 to
the car.
Cascade reported more cars, but at
a lower valuation. In 1921 this coun-
ty returned 3,273 cars, with an av-
erage value of 5000, while in 1922
the number was increased to 1856
and the average value was reduced
to $389.36.
Fergus county showed the heaviest
assessment drop of any of the coun-
ties in the state. In 1921 this coun-
ty assessed 1,434 cars at an average
of $651.60 and increased the num-
Der this year to 2,422, but cut the
to an average of S262.57.
Missoula county in 1921 reported
1851 cars with an average value Of
$495.65, and in 1922 assessed 2,811l
cars at an average of $398.39; Silver
Bow taxed 5,875 cars at an average
of $372.28 in 1921 and $500 cars
with an average of $358.60 in 1922,
while Yellowstone reported 1884
cars with an average valuation of
s455.80 in 1921 and 1874 cars with
an average value of $348.35 in 1922. |
