the two amendments 10 exclude New
Castle county and Wilmington from
the provisions o. the BILL II is now
contended, made a wrong ruling on
the vote for the amendments. Both
amendments received a majority
vote Of those members present and
consequently should have been
adopted, it is contended. Under the
rules the House works under Il only
requires a majority Of those mem
bers present and voting TO adopt an
amendment. Speaker Culver was
under the impression that amend
ments required a constitutional ma
jority or is votes TO be adopted and
ruled the amendments lost. Both
amendments received II affirmative
votes and as three members were
absent this was a majority of those
voting. This, however, was a mis-
understanding OF the rules relative
to amendments, as the decisions
we're against the Speakers own-vote.
There was some talk OF trying TO
have resonsidered the vote by which
the bill was passed but it has now
been decided to make the fight
against the measure in the Senate.
An effort will be made to arrange
a hearing on It for sometime next
week and 1t is thought the Senate

Members OF City Council and
many citizens OF Wilmington, II is
said will go to Dover next week IL
a hearing is arranged in the Senate
to protest against the Reynolds
anti-daylight saving bill. Thousands
of baseball fans and other followers
OF various branches OF sport who
enjoy the games in the evenings
under daylight saving time are op-
posed to the Reynolds bill.
When Councilman Alexa r.
Abrahams, father Of the Whining
ton daylight saving ordinance. was
asked for his comments relative 20
the vote at Dover. he declared:
1T was really a shock. I didn't
think they were going to rush II
through without giving us a hearing,
1 regret the hasty action, but con-
gratulate the Wilmington members
and The other Representatives on
their stand for a square deal for w1i-
mington.
IF those opposing the daylight
saying had received all the letters
l received when the ordinance was
being considered by Council, or
would look over Councils files they
would realize what an injustice they
were doing TO our city.
In order 10 give in to a small
minority, I drew my ordinance for
five months instead of seven. as the
governments regulations ruled, and
which many states followed.
Asked what he was going to do,
and IL he had any plans. Mr.. Abra-
hams, said: Il will endeavor to get
n hearing before the Senate before
that body votes. for I feel sure II
the working men and the sporting
fraternity are given an opportunity
to explain the merits of the ordi-
nance, the members will vote diff
ferent."
Daylight enthusiasts said last
night that they could fill a special
train to Dover il given notice in ad-
vance as to when the bill would be
considered. One sporting man
said, whats the difference, we will
have it anyway Pittsburgh and

Cabot was appointed Secretary OF the

his name was sent to the Senate and

Salt Creek, rather than Kevin-Sun-
burst crude. The Wyoming oil will
be hauled in tank cars from Casper
to Calgary. Oil is now being hauled
from Casper to Regina, to one of the
Imperial refineries.
1--WE expect that all of the Kelvin
Sunburst oil will be refined and mar
keted on this side of the line," Mr..
Stevenson said. He would not dis
cuss the method whereby the Kelvin
Sunburst production would be so
quickly moved.
1t is known that the Great North
ern Railway company has decided to
use oil burner locomotives on it's
Central division, provided sufficient
fuel oil is obtainable. The company
first asked the Sunburst Refining
company for 1000 barrels a day, re-
ducing this later to an immediate
demand for $50 barrels. Mr.. Steven
son was called to the Twin Cities to
further discuss the situation.
The Sunburst refinery has a capa-
city of 5000 barrels day, but its
runs have been increased proportion
ately, only, to the market demand
for its products. By the construc-
ton of additional storage it is pos
sible to further increase the capacity
of this plant, it is understood, and
it is possible that with market faci-
Titles arranged, the Sunburst COM
pany could handle practically the
entire present production of the nor
thern field.
"The outstanding feature of the
oil industry today is fuel OIL" Mr..
Stevenson says. Efforts to build up
a market for fuel oil, in steamships,
railroads, in heating plants for office
factories and homes have
resulted in creating a greater de-
mand than the present supply. I'm

1855, Sir George assembled Tongue
river to the first canyon and then
crossed to Rosebud and there met
the Crows, traded with the Indians
for fresh supply of horses, follow
ing down the Rosebud river a short
distance, turned off into the Black
Hills, and returned by circuitous
route to his post on Tongue river.
Here he built two large wooden flat
boats in which portion of his party
descended the Yellowstone to Fort
Union, while Sir George himself,
with the remainder and the wagons
and carts, crossed to the same point
overland, hunting as he went. Dur
ing the winter that he was camped
on Tongue river, Sir George lost one
of his men by death. His comrades
proposed to bury him in his clothes
for want of lumber, but Sir George
caused the bed of one of his wagons
to be taken to pieces and coffin
made from the material, which he
lined with cloth from his stores. His
kindness of heart is further shown
by his writing to the relatives of the
deceased offering to bring home the
remains, if they desired. The man
was buried near the mouth of Tongue
river, the grave being enclosed in
mausoleum of logs The wagon
from which the bed was taken for
the coffin was left behind when the
camp was abadnoned. At this camp
Sir George discharged number of |
his men on account of the expiration
of their terms of employment, among |
whom we're Bridger and Bostwick.
QuarreIs With Culbertson
Arrived at the mouth of the yell
lowstone, Sir George camped for
time and was visited by Colonel
Vaughn and Major Culbertson. The
former demanded what business Sir
George had in the country, to which
Sir George replied that it was none
of his business. Vaughn then de-
manded to see his authority for his
presence in the Indian country and
was shown the passport of the SUI
perintendent of Indian affairs at st.

were grown this year on the ranch
lof H. A. Espie, four miles south of
Wilsall, according to .threshing re-
Turns.
Mr.. Espie says these figures are
based on total grain threshed and
Iacreage sown. 1t is the largest yield
Iof grain, he asserts, that has been
seen in the Shields river valley since
he bumper crops of 1915.
All farmers in the valley have ex-
good small grain crops

,ect to realize profit. Some of Mr..
Espie's land is irrigated, but timely
aims this season contributed to the
success of his crops. No hail fell in

HYDRO-ELECTRIC
SURVEY OF STATE
MONTANA RANKS FOURTH IN
THE MATTER OF WATER
DEVELOPED POWER
State Uses More Power Per Capita
than Amy Other State in the Union;
Two-Thirds Generation on the Mis-
souri, River.

Statistics compiled by the depart
ment of labor and industry show that
the installed capacity of hydro-elec-
trio plants in Montana is 100000
horsepower. Not all of this power is
being utilized at the present time or
else it is being operated for uses
which do not require its being re-
ported to the public service commits
sion for the total developed capacity
shown by the public service commits
sion records is 294,930 horse power.
In the year 1922, according to the
United States geological survey, Mon
tana produced nearly per cent of
the nations electricity from water
power and was the fourth state in
rank in point of the amount of power
developed.
OF the electrical power used in
Montana 1872 per cent is generated
by water. Montana, the state de-
partment claims, uses more electri-
city per capita than any other state.
This, if correct, presumably is due to
the fact that the state while large in
area is small in population but with
in its confines has hundreds of miles
of electrically operated railroads and
has numerous mines which use tre-
mendous amount of electric current.
More than two-thirds of the pres
ent installed hydro-electric capacity
of the state is on the Missouri river
and its tributaries in central Mon
tana, but approximately three-fourths
Of the potential undeveloped capacity,
figures of the state department show,
Is in western Montana on the Pacific
slope of the Rocky mountains, on the
Clark's Fork, the Flathead and Koot- |
snai rivers principally.
The total potential development in |
Montana on the Missouri river and |
is tributaries is estimated by the /
geological survey to be 10000 horse
,ower.
The growing use of electricity for /
water used for irrigation
probably will increase greatly the de-
-elopment of electric power in Mon
ana in the next 10 years, in the
pinion of the labor and industry de-
artment.
When mining operations are at the
eak virtually the full capacity of the
resent electrical development is tax
d as at present SO that the extensive
Sc of electricity for irrigation cannot
e accomplished without increasing
ne maximum capacity.
