Congressman Johnson
Confident Leavitt
Will be Returned

Great Falls, Oct. l.-0ne Of the
measures most discussed in Congress
last winter prior to its passage was
the johnson restricted immigration
bill, which was strongly favored by
Congressman Scott Leavitt. As re-
suit of his activity in its behalf the
Montana member has received a letter
from Congressman Albert Johnson of
Washington, chairman Of the house
committee on naturalization and immi-
grafton, who wrote the bill, expressing
appreciation Of his aid and voicing the
belief that Mr.. Leavitt will be elected
for second term. Mr.. Johnson, writ
ing the day before the Montana pri-
maries, when Mr.. Leavitt was renomi-
mated by a three to one vote, and
with substantial lead over all OPP
ponents on three tickets combined,
said:
'Now that | have little time am
writing few letters for the purpose
Of extending personal thanks to those
members of Congress who were ac-
tive Iieutenants in the passage Of The
immigration Act of 1924. 1t goes
without saying that | cannot overlook
you for | consider your speech with
its assault on those who are and have
been so actively opposed to any effort
to limit immigration, to have been one
of the strongest statements in our be
half.
81 intended to write you in the hope
that letter from me might make your
campaign easier. presume that
am too late, but feel sure that yol
will be returned to the Sixty-Nintf
Congress"

Send Propaganda
Against Mine Tax
To Rural Counties

Glasgow-Representatives of the
big mining companies of the state
now have perfected the organization
of associations in practically every
county of the state where the senti-
ment seems at all favorable for their
operations, to combat the adoption Of
the metal mines tax measure which
will be submitted at the coming cleo
tion for decision by the voters.
The argument being used in the
farming communities in the effort to
defeat this tax measure, is that if the
law becomes effective the mines will
close and the farming lands will de-
preciate in value.
Locally little interest is being tak-
en- in the association, the owners of
farms recognizing in the graduated
scale of taxes provided under the bill
what they regard as fair system of
taxation. They argue that with the
first tax not becoming Elective until
the gross proceeds of a mine has
exceeded value of 100000 the small
mine properties will not be affected.
In some places, it is understood the
literature to be supplied by the big
mining companies will be handled
through the local association while in
others it will be sent direct from the
companies propaganda headquarters.

State Hail Losses Are
$4,000; Can Pay

That extremely light hail losses
were sustained in Montana during the
last crop season is shown by the re-
port of the chairman of the state hail
insurance board, at meeting of the
board held at Helena last week.
In his preliminary report Mr.. Bow
man showed a prospective revenue for
1924 of $4,000 from hail insurance
premiums with which to pay total
loss Of about 5000. The losses are
he heaviest in Mussselshell. Hill and
Blaine counties, with a strip of lesser
LOSSES extending along the Milk river
and the Missouri to the eastern end
of the state.
Most of the business of the board
during 1924 was in country for which
levy of per cent, or so cents per
acre, was assessed, this consisting
mainly of counties in the northern and
eastern parts Of the state, the business
being lighter through the central and
southern counties where the levies
were nine and ten per cent.
The losses under the state plan for
1924 have been lighter than for sever
al years past. In addition to the ex-
animation Of this report tie board CON
sidered several claims in which the in.
sured was dissatisfied with the loss
award
Chairman Bowman states that
through arrangements made with the
state board Of land commissioners all
aarrants drawn for hail losses will bc
cashed by the state treasurer upor
presentation. Warrants for the first
payment covering one-half Of this
amount of the award, will be mailed
to the farmers during the present
week, with the second paper cover,
ing the balance to be sent out before
the close of the month.

Oil Burners on G. N.
West of WillistOn

Not later than the 10th of October
all coal burning engines in both
freight and service along the Great
Northerns "high line" from Willis
ton to Seattle will have been supplant-
ed by oil burners according to j. IL.
O'Neill, General manager of the Great
Northerns lines west of Williston.
The Great Northern has been rush
ing the work of refitting locomotives
for the new fuel and at the present
time most of the passenger trains and
many freights are being driven by oil
burners. The work, however, has been
held up due to the delay in receiving
equipment for the change, says Mr..
O'Neil. The change requires an i'm
mense amount of equipment in the
way of tank cars, he says.
With oil burners the Great Northern
will be one of the first to place oil
burners exclusively on such long
stretch Of track The ease with which
they can generate power and the elm
ination of cinders will make the roads
motive power Of the highest type. The
sNew Oriental Limited" the Chicago
Seattle train has been driven by oil
burners from Wolf Point to Seattle
for several months and the general
offices of the road have been flooded
with congratulary letters from tour
lists and other passengers who have
made the trip, says Mr.. O'Neill
Four or five engines week are being
converted into oil burners at the road s
shop at GreatFalls. Havre and Hill
yard. The latter shop is near Spo-
kane. None Of the oil burners will be
used on the Butte division.

ENGINEERS GROUP
TO STUDY TRAFFIC
Automotive Society Will Hear
George N. Graham, Here,
Tomorrow Night.

Automotive engineers will have an
opportunity to play their role in the
national effort to solve the automo-
bile and pedestrian traffic tangle
when this problem Is discussed at
the monthly meeting Of the Washing
ton Section OF the Society Of Auto
motive Engineers at the Cosmos Club
tomorrow evening, according to an
announcement by c. H. Warrington,
vice chairman of the local section.
George NJ Graham, vice president
OF the Chandler Motor Car Company
and chairman of the traffic planning
and safety committee of the Ma
tional Automobile Chamber Of Com
merce. will be the principal speaker.
Mr.. Graham will come to the en-
gineers meeting direct from the
opening session of the national con-
ference on street and highway safe
~, In which he was selected by Sec
rotary Hoover as chairman Of the
public relations committee.
The subject before the engineers
will be "Transportation's Greatest
Problem"
Subject OF Deep study.
Traffic study" says Mr.. Warning
ton, has been more than a hobby
with Mr.. Graham. He has investi-
gated conditions first hand from one
end OF the country to the other and,
in discussing traffic safety with po-
lice ofncials and civic engineers of
so many cities. he has become a ma
tionally known authority on the sub
ject.
Not only liz Mr. Graham's subject
OF particular Importance to automo-
tive engineers who appreciate the in
Innate connection between car de-
q hnf hjc ~
address Is both forceful and inter-
esting.
Mr.. Graham got his first insight
into the tranic question while sta
toned in Washington during the
war. He saw then the necessity of
freedom of transportation and real
lied that. unlike railroad. a city,
when it's transportation problems be-
came acute, could not pick up it's
streets or it's business section and
move 1T elsewhere in the manner in
which a railroad solves it's conges-
ton problems"
Local Situation Up.
It is expected that much of the
discussion at the meeting will have
direct bearing upon trafic condi-
lions and their solution here in
Washington. 1t is the first time that
the local section has given over an
evening to the subject, and the belief
prevails among Its officials that the
automotive engineers should be able
to contribute many workable ideas
for increased traflc safety as well as
lend their support to those local and
national movements now being for
mulated.
Since Mr.. Graham enjoys the repu-
tation of being an exceptionally en-
tertaining speaker, and his subject is

Did Herman Hinsche
 Meet Death in Flames?

Fairbanks News-M iner: It has been learned by the marshal's office here that Axel Hedlund, a trapper, another named Chappell. and native named Justin Frank, while travelling along the Tolovana river about thirty miles across country from the MintO road house, in the Hot Springs precinct. discovered cabin that had burned to the ground. Investigating, they found that there were the eharred remains of 8 human being in the ashes, and the remains of 30 40 ride.
 Some time ago Herman Hinsche, a trapper, who was believed to be par tiallv insane, left McGrath to go CD a trip to the Hot Springs section of the country for fur. It is believed that this is the man that came to. his tragic end in this burned cabin, as there is evidence of letter, which has not been made public, having been tackled to 8 tree near the cabin, written by Hinsche, and it's contents would tend to show that Hinsche was stopping there.
 The marshals office here has given instructions. that an investigation should be held by the deputy marshal and commissioner of the Hot Springs precinct, aud also instructed the com missioner to hold an inquest over the body.
