CREWS TO START
ON NEW RAILROAD
GRADING TO START ON 326 MILE
LINE OUT OF MILES
CITY
Are Said to Have
Been Instructed to Get Their
Equipment on Ground and to Es-
tablish Their Camps.

With the completion of few de-
tails in connection with the securing
OF the right-of-way, it is expected that
graders will soon be engaged all
along the 326 miles of the new Mon
tana-Wyoming railroad from Miles
City to the Salt Creek oil fields.
Contractor Peterson of the firm of
peterson, Gunther and Shirley of
Omaha, who have the general con-
tract for the building of the road,
who spent few days in Miles City,
is understood to have given instruc-
ton to all sub-contractors to get their
teams and equipment on the ground
ready for an early start, establish
their camps and line up their men.
While there has been some delay
in receiving all the equipment or
dered by the various sub-contractors,
1t is stated that Emil J. Prahl of,
Miles City, who has the second SO
miles of grading south from Miles
City, has practically all his teams and
ready and will start with
so men.

FERGUS co. MINE
WILL BE WORKED
TRIDENT MEN TAKE OVER CONE
BUTTE GOLD PROPERTY
NEAR LEWISTOWN
Recent Assays of Ore Are Said to
Warrant Development of Holdings;
$4,000 to be Spent in Next 10
Months.

Oil is not the only one of Fergu.
county's natural resources that is tt
receive the attention of capital, &C
cording to the provisions of dea
consummated in Lewistown recently
between Golden Jack" Lee and 8
group of mining men, which calls fol
the immediate development of a
group of gold mines in the Cone Butte
mining district east of Lewistown.
The property has been held by 'Go1-
den Jack" Lee for many years and
something like $4,000 has been ex-
pended on it in the way of develop
ment.
L. P. Hoover, who is to be in
charge of the work, said that he
would go out to the property and
make all arrangements for the neces-
sary preliminary work such as re-
pairing roads and getting the build
ings in shape for occupancy by the
force of miners that will be put to
work. An air compressor is already
on the way and the other necessary
machinery will be ordered at once. A
force of men will be put to work i'm
mediately and as the mine is develop
ed the number employed will be in
creased. No time is to be lost in get
ting things moving, according to Mr..
Hoover, and by the time snow flies
he hopes to have the property thor
oughly developed.
A number of the best mining geol-
0gists in the country have reported
favorably on this property, but on ac-
count of Lees insistence upon hold
ing the controlling interest and re-
fusing to sell, considerable difficulty
has been experienced in the past to
get capital to take hold of the propo-
sition.
Some time ago a number of the
officials of the Three Forks Portland
Cement company became interested
and recently Mr.. Hoover took a
couple of practical miners to the
property and used number of shots
to secure samples. The samples we're
assayed and although the result was
not made public, it was satisfactory.
Later some experts looked over the
property and reported favorably,
which resulted in the closing of a
deal for its development. 1t is said
that the agreement entered into calls
for the expenditure of not less than
$4,000 in development work in the
next 10 months, after which time a
mill is to be erected which will en-
tail an outlay of something like $40,-
600. t
The men back of the enterprise are
all connected in an official capacity
with the Three Forks Portland Ce-
ment company at Trident, Montana.
Those forming the syndicate are E.
W. Leh, L. P. Hoover, w. J. Andrews,
Amos Dawes, X. G. Kimball and Will
lard Niece, all of Trident.
