tary life. The change in location
made no change in the name. Fol-
the next four years times in Miles
City we're good. A garrison of full
regiment and the usual compliment
of civilian employees and camp fol
lowers made a good pay roll, to which
was added the earnings of a small
army of government contractors
men, high salaried clerks in the
stores, and the continual contribu-
lions of the inevitable tenderfoot,
whose genus flocked to Miles City in
droves and uncomplainingly yielded
up the substance garnered by older
and more economic hands, as the ten
derfoot always has done and always
will do, as long as there is frontier
community to relieve him of his sur
plus.
So it happened that from 1878 I'M
til 1881 Miles City was a place of
much consequence. 1t was called a
tough place and doubtless harbored
during those years as many hard
characters as have ever gathered to-
gether on the frontier, but for some
reason-possibly the near presence
of the soldiers-there was less of the
imam for breakfast in the history of
those days of license and freedom
from restraint than most frontier
towns can boast of. Everybody had
money in plenty. Society, as then
constituted, demanded that all should
meet on level, consequently the
spectacle of prominent citizen play
ing ga stack or two" against the
fhanl'' M. Hcottinp nm fha fi1z,, ~ ono
of the frequent .soirees dansant of the
demi monde excited absolutely no
comment. 1t was principal of trade
recognized by those in business, that |
the money thus put out always came
back with usurious interest; it was |
simply advertising, but the man who |
could not adapt himself to these
methods either had to quit or get a
partner who could-and would.
Any day during this period the
town would have tailed out a good |
strong 5000 population, a majority
of which conducted its affairs on the
fBox & Cox" principle, dividing into
two shifts, one sleeping while the
other worked" This contingent
was composed almost entirely of the
sporting element, and it was quite
often the experience of the staid citi-
zen who went to bed o'nights to
meet at some early morning fire {
alarm or other hasty gathering a con-
siderable number of people whom he !
had never seen before, though, like l
lin, resident of the town.

His leadership in Montana was rec
ognized at once and he became prom
inent in the political affairs of the
early territory at once after his ap-
pointment as secretary of state. 1t
was during the absence of Governor
Edgerton that he served in that Off
Gals chair and today an equestrian
statue of Thomas Francis Meagher
fronts the capitol building on the
Helena grounds as a tribute to his
memory.
| He was born at Waterford, Ire
land, of wealthy and cultured par
ents. His father was merchant and
a member of the British parliament
for several years and Meagher was
given the opportunity for a liberal
education. AS youth he attended
the Jesuit college in Kildare and con-
cluded his studies at Stonyhurst col
lege in England.
His oratorical abilities won him
recognition when quite young and
his reputation as platform speaker
brought him national recognition. He
became an influential member of the
Young ireland" party, which he
joined in 1916. BY reason of his 10y
atty and patriotism he was selected
to visit Paris in 1916 as a represen-
tative of the Irish confederation to
address the provisional government
of France. On his return to Ireland
he presented an Irish tri-color to the
citizens of Dublin and made the pres
entation exercises the occasion for
the delivery of a ringing speech in
which he dwelt upon the wrongs of
Ireland and bristled with charges
aimed at the British parliament.
The address was considered inceri@-
diary and young Meagher was arrest
ed on the charge of sedition. From
this charge he was released on bail,
With the passage of the treason-felz
ony act, which was brought about a
short time after, he was again arrest
ed and sentenced to DEATH This ex-
IRENE sentence was not, however,
carried into execution, for the crown
interviewed with Communication of
the sentence to Punishment. Thus
he was consigned as a prisoner of
state to faraway Van Dieman's land.
Other workers in the same cause
were treated in like manner. After
three years of the hardships of a
prisoners life Meagher made his es-
cape and found his way to America
and to New York city in 1852. Here
he studied law and was admitted to
practice in 1856.
After five years the Civil war came
and Meagher Immediately espoused
The cause of the Union and raised the
famous zouaves which afterward be-
came part of the 69th regiment of
New York volunteers, commanded by
Michael Corcoran.

ANNIVERSARY OF
MEACHER'S BIRTH
BORN 100 YEARS AGO IN IRE
LAND; PATRIOTISM ALMOST
COST HIM HIS LIFE.
Sent as Political Prisoner to Van
Dieman's Land, He Escaped and
Made His Way to America; Served
as Governor of Montana.

During the early part of August
was the Tooth anniversary of the
birth of Thomas Francis Meagher,
one of the most notable of Irishmen
who served in the union army during
the civil war and one of those who
was at the infant cradle of Montana
in the early days.
His connections in this territory
came after the close of the war when
he was named secretary of state and
he served as governor pro tenn for a
brief period. Montana later named
one of its counties in his honor as
tribute to his service.
This state has cause to hold the
memory of Meagher in the highest
esteem, as does the land of his birth,
for he was one of the distinguished
leaders of the Young Ireland" party
during the rebellion against British
rule in 1846-48.

$5OO,OOO,OOO OIL
MERGER REPORTED

That the biggest oil merger in
the history of the world, involving
approximately $500, 100000, is
now under way is the gist of APP
parently authentic advices receiv-
ed from New York by a Great Falls
firm, which has received a teIe-
gram as follows:
"a $500,OOO,O merger of oil
companies in the United States,
South America and RuInania is un-
der way, according to Il, II. Crow
ell of Pittsburgh, secretary of the
Trans Continental Oil company,
who has been in conference with
the chairman of the Mutual Oil
company. Besides the two COM
panies mentioned, others involved
include the Mid-CoIumbia Oil De-
velopment, Carpathian Oil Co. of
Rumania, the Trans-Ark Oil and
Gas company of Wyoming and
Montana, and the Trans Oil COM
pany of Kansas and the Trans-Con-
tinental Oil company of Columbia,
and several minor concerns. The
largest company is the Mutual,
which would be the dominating
company"
The Mutual Oil company is hea-
Willy interested in Montana oil de-
velopment, that company being the
one which purchased an interest
in the Hogan company properties
in the Kevin-Sunburst field as well
as other interests, and is carrying
on an extensive drilling campaign
there at the present time.

of Milestown. Not because of the
freedom and license of the times sc
much as of the spirit of good fellow
ship and comraderie that made ii
almost impossible for a man of stand
| ing to do a mean or cheap thing. AL
though the competitors of trade were
present, there was present also broad
guage courtesy that lifted men above
the sordid conditions of life and
made them closer observers of the
golden rule.
Like the shifting of the scenes in
theater, the advent of the Northern
Pacific railroad in 1887 brought
about complete change in the meth
DDS and manners of the people. The
railroad brought the community at
once in touch with the more concise
and narrower life of ''the states" the
nickel displaced the quarter" as
the smallest coin in use, and prices
shrunk accordingly.
The prosperity of early day Miles
City was probably at its height just
after the coming of the railEoad.
There was full garrison of fswad-
dies" hundreds of railroad graders
eager to spend their money, and the
slaughter of the buffalo for their
hides employing hundreds of dollars
in the course of a few weeks all
made for temporary profit. During
1882 about 10000 buffalo hides
were shipped from Custer county, for
which the hunters received SO each
and this money found its way, sooner
or later, to Milestown.
Then followed the cattle era. A
popular legend is that band of oxen,
abandoned and turned loose to die,
came out in the spring fat and fine.
This was followed by the introduce
ton of cattle and in the course of a
few years Miles City became the
headquarters of stockmen of south
eastern Montana, business that was
continued with great profit until the
coming of the homesteader put an
end to the free range.
