GIBSON FRIEND
OF MAN IN JAIL
NAMED SECRETARY FOR THE
SOCIETY OF THE
FRIENDLESS
Will See that Deserving Men in Jails
and Penitentiary Get Chance to
Rehabilitate Themselves After Dis
charge.

Colonel I. M. Gibson, we'll known
Montana lecturer and publicist, has
been appointed state superintendent
for the Society of the Friendless, an
organization which has for its pur-
pose the moral rehabilitation of men
sentenced to prison, by which de-
serving convicts are brought back to
useful citizenship.
The organization, which is nation
wide, has its headquarters in Kan
sas City, and Colenel Gibson's work
is to see that those incarcerated in
penal institutions are kept supplied
with good reading matter and en-
couraged in their efforts to "come
back" after their terms expire. The
purpose of the Society of the Friend
less is to give the ~time-expired man
a chance to make good.
Colonel Gibson began his tenure
of office by appointing a state exc
cutive board, consisting of Former
Lieutenant Governor W. W. Mellow
ell, of Butte, chairman; John B. Tan
sill, county attorney for Yellowstone
county; DR.. A. I. Jones, Baptist min
lister at Billings; M. w. Potter, war
den state prison; Hon. Charles H.
Cooper, associate justice of the SUI
preme court; W. w. Chiefly of the
Montana Newspaper association,
Great Fails, and Uncle Sam" Hamp-
ton of the farm bureau organization
at Belgrade.
Part of Colonel Gibson's work is
to interest sympathetic employers of
labor to the end that they will fur
nish employment to men of good rec
ords on their being discharged from
prison. He finds many deserving
men serving prison terms.
Colonel Gibson will endeavor to
place a library of 100 volumes or
more in every big jail in the state.
These books will be carefully select
ed and Of a character to have the
proper influence on the man in jail.
He is making a tour of the state and
lectures on the scope of
his undertaking, and is receiving en-
couragement and help in every sec
ton he visits. Much of the success
is attending his work is due to
the man himself, as Colonel Gibson
Is a forceful speaker and has a most
appealing way of presenting his plea
for the convict to his hearers.

but, nevertheless, we're not compelled
to suffer financially thereby"
The investigators who prefer to
remain anonymous until their report
is completed, want it understood that
they are gathering the data, not as a
basis of criticism, but to gather facts
from official records which would en-
able citizens fairly to assess the re-
suits of prohibition enforcement and
to develop an appreciation of the fact
that contempt for one law begets con-
tempt for all and brings the country
nearer the threshold of anarchy.
There will be no bootleggers if
there are no patrons" said one of the
Investigators. violation of the law
is for profit. If there were no profits
there would be no distillation of the
we know as moonshine. Law
enforcement would become much

FIGHT FOR
RICH OIL LEASE
INVOLVES CHOICE ACREAGE IN
CAT CREEK EXTENSION;
SUIT STARTED
Ralph Laveradure Gave Lease to One
Concern Before Issue Of Patent
and to Another After Receiving
Patent.

Three hundred twenty acres Of the
choicest land in the new extension
to the Cat Creek field are involved
in a legal tangle that in the number
of its r~amifications and cross-inter-
ests bids fair to develop into a long
court battle and attract considerable
attention throughout the country.
The land is the homestead OF
Ralph Laveradure, who is said to be
part Indian. In the early stages OF
interest in Montana oil, Laveradure
gave a lease on his place to Warren
weight for the Shaffer Oil company.
Later it was discovered that Lavera-
dure did not have his patent when
the lease was given, and although he
had been accepting rentals, he re-
leased the place to Pete Dikerson for
the Fergus Oil and Gas company
after he received his patent.
Storm Clouds Arise
No disturbance grew out of the
top lease while the district, apparent
ly disproved by the Big Six water
well, had no development, but storm
clouds Immediately arose when the
Devereaux we'll came in. The Fer
gus Gas and Oil quickly dealt with
the Mid-Northern, selling five for
ties, and sold 80 acres to the Cali
fornia company.
AS further complication, Tom A.
Peterson, former merchant at Teiger,
bought the land in fee simple, get
ting one-half of one per cent royalty
with it. This eliminated L~averadure
from any interest in the tract two
years ago.
A few weeks ago the Shaffer Oil
company served the Mid-Northern
with formal notice to vacate the
premises. No court action was start
ed, though the notice was made of
record in Fergus county. The Shat
fer claims that the lease given be-
fore the patent was issued became
effective after patent was issued. The
Standard companies held otherwise,
and continued drilling.
Files $1,OOO,OOO Suit
Then arrived Tom A. Peterson on
scene, returning from California,
bringing with him two attorneys who
served notice on everybody that all
existing leases r invalid. Peterson
engaged R. M. Armour, ex-mayor of
Great Falls, to file an action in the
United States district court in Helena
With Ewing, Arnold and Freeman of
Denver. The complaint, covering 27
alleges that all existing leases
invalid and lays claim to the oil
worth approximately $1,000
it appearing that Peterson has
,iven a lease which he claims the
'n1y valid lease outstanding, to the
Texas Production company, one of
he largest Independent oil compan-
es in America, and greatest rival of
he Standard. {.

DRIVING AROUND CURVES

Laws and rules for automobile
safety usually require operators to
drive slowly around curves and to
sound a horn where you can not see
ahead. Yet many drivers persist in
driving rapidly around twisting roads
where they are unable to look ahead,
and they rarely sound their horns.
Such drivers have an easy going
feeling that they could stop in sea-
son If they saw a car approaching.
Trey might be able to do 80 il one
was coming around curve very
slowly. But if another car was COM
ing at anything the same rate as their
own, it would be almost impossible to
avoid a smash.
rs a matter of fact many acct
dents occur as the result Of such
fast driving around twisting roads.
Special care in needed in such local
tiles.
The danger is particularly marked
where these roads are narrow, as
they are in many rural and billy sec
tions. On many of these roads there
is barely room for two cars to pass
under any conditions. 1t seems almost
crazy for drivers to tear along on
such narrow and curving roads. If
they met another car, they ought to
go quite slowly anyway, even if there
were no curves, to make sure that
they would pass without hitting.
The excuse given by many drivers
for such methods, is that other people
do the same thing, or drive even
faster. But they should reflect that
many accidents are happening all the
time, and as the result of just such
habits. These accidents cause a
reat deal of sorrow and trouble, they
lead TO costly lawsuits. 1t is far bet
ter to adopt those prudent methods
that make driving relatively safe.
Those who can not listen to these
counsels deserve severe treatment
whenever detected in their reckless
ways.

THE GLARE OF THE WHITE
HOUSE

The new president is known as
retieent man, but he is skilful poll
tician enough to know that in his
preeent position he must expect to
have the minutes doings Of his life
carefully explored. The neighbor-
hoods where he lived as a boy and
where he spent his young manhood
will be raked over with fine tooth
comb for incidents Of his early life.
Also every detail of his present
habits and that of his family will
be exploited. We shall know what
he likes for breakfast, dinner and
supper. We shall be told all about
Mrs. Coolidge's gowns, and about
the exploits and escapades Of his
sons.
Many people complain Of the
great amount Of space given in the
newspapers to small gossip of this
kind. They consider it an imper-
tinent intrusion into the affairs Of
the chief executive, that lie has GER
tain rights to privacy that should
not be interfered with.
Yet the American people love to
hear these little details about big
public mans daily life and his past
history. 1t sdAnehow comforts their
sense Of democracy to feel that the
ruler Of this vast country is after
all just common man, who has
been through about the same ex-
periences that every one else has
had, and presumably understands all
the conditions that affect every
home.
All this small talk about a presi-
dent is of course rather light and
trihling. Yet compared with many
things that people read, and ways in
which they spend their time, it is
extremely harmless. But if folks
are so much interested in the big
men Of the nation, they would do
better to study their lives in a more
thorough way. The story of how
men like Coolidge and many that
have gone before him have risen to
their high positions is full of in
spiration. Such life histories con-
tain lessons that everyone could ap-
ply with profit to his own life.

rae AGRICULTURAL FAIRS

One of the oldest forms of rural
activity is the agricultural fair, and
the antiquity of this institution and
it's fourishing condition all over the
United States shows what an i'm
portant function these fairs fulfil.
They are one of the leading means
by which farmers sell their products,
advertise their wares, and gain
credit for superior production.
Every county in the United States
needs one or more agricultural fairs,
and the community should take hold
to support them, and assist in secur-
ing the right results from them.
In many localities such fairs are
financially successful, as the result
of having interesting entertainment
and drawing big crowd. Yet they
may not be the educational force
they ought to be. They are an oc-
casion if rightly handled, when mod
ern ideas of agriculture can he COM
municated to the farmers, and dem
onstrations and exhibits of such
methods should always be presented.
There ought to be general dis
position among the farm and coun-
try people to show their products at
these fairs. Farmers in some places
get the idea that the premiums arc
likely to go to the best known ex-
hibitors, and that young fellow
who is just starting in or new
conner would not stand much chance
of getting recognition. But exhibit
ing at these fairs counts more than
people realize, and it gives an inn
preston over wide area that man
is ambitious and is in the game and
getting ahead.
Great care should be shown in
selecting the amusements, entertain
ment features, and side shows which
are presented. Plenty of shows of
low moral tone are circulating about
the country and trying to get a
chance to open up at good country
fairs. But such exhibits are curse
wherever they go, and should be
vigorously excluded.
