counsel for Governor Russell has
declared that there would be no
compromise of the case, rumors are
court. 1t is more than six months
before the case can be brought up
for trial at Oxford, and many things
can happen in that length of time.
The claim is made that Miss Birk-
head has in her possession some very
damaging documentary evidence
that would place the governor in a
most unenv;able light. However, this
is only rumor; she may have the
evidence, but as it has never been
made public, it can only be put down
as hearsay.
However, it is fact that the gov
ernor and his friends are not idle.
They are leaving no stone unturned
and the fact tnat they resisted trial
in Jackson is cited as evidence that
they do not want the testimony in
the case brought out, and that the
case may yet be settled by compro-
mise.
Miss Birkhead Not in Court
Miss Birkhead was not in court
Tuesday, neither was any other
woman there, as spectator or other
wise. The sensation has been worn
off to considerable degree, and the
morbidly curious are not so anxious
and impatient as they were when the
sensation was first sprung; still
should the case have sgotten uncer
full swing in the court here, there
is no doubt that it would have pay
&C TO standing room only, and that
goodly portion of the spectators
would have been of The female spe-
cies.
The Governor Was There
But the governor was there and
so were a goodly number of his po-
litical and personal friends. but fer
mer Governor Bilbo was not among
them; he was conspicuous for his alb
sence, but would probably have
shown up in time had his presence
been needed, for be it remembered,
he promised to tell the truth" and
what Bilbo knows would fill a book.

THE OXFORD WELL.

Driller w. L. Johnson reports the
Oxford test well down 500 feet Sat
urday night. Owing to the loose
formations and water sands en-
countered, it will be necessary to case
the hole down as far as gone as the
walls will not stand. The drilling
was shut down Saturday night, and
will be resumed as soon as
the hole can be cased, which the
management hopes to be able to do
in few days.

While the cost of the dressing, at
this stage of experimentation, is so
per cent more than that of macadam
and material of that kind, it is ex-
pected that the rubber surface will
stand up much longer. Naturally it
is more resilient and the filler pro-
tects it from conditions due to heat
friction. Labor cost in laying the
rubber surface also is less than in
other similar road work.
Many are optimistic enough to pre-
dict that if durability can be proved
the new rubber surface is likely to
revolutionize the entire problem of
road building.

the personnel Of our state ticket we
are fortunate in having men who can
go before the voters with good rec
ords behind them. The senatorial, con-
gressional and legislative skirmishes
in the primaries were intensive and
naturally there are disappointments.
The glory of winning carries with it
the chance of losing, and we all know
what constitutes good craftsmanship.
Consequently we hope that every de-
feated candidate will take off his
coat and work for the successful fell
low the same as he would expect If
he were the victor. If a man cannot
play the game along these lines he
has no right to expect favors at the
hands of the great rank and file of
the party, and what is furthermore,
he is not likely to get them. My
opinion, however, is that we are 60
ing to have no such condition Of af-
fairs. After the little sore spots of
the primary begin to heal, which will
not be long, it is my conviction that
we are going to see every defeated
candidate at work with his coat off,
and this means that we are going to
carry Montana by a sweeping major
ity November next.
"In Carl w. Riddick for United
States Senator we have a man whose
enviable record in Congress should
entitle him to the support of every

firm conviction that he will be elected

given a candidate for that office. II
elected he will continue to work as II
the past for the best interests of Mon
