the ball three yards from lmbodens
line. Lemmons circled left end for
touchdown. Throgmorton placed a
drop-kick between the posts for the
extra point. The half ended with the
score 1870 in Poca's favor.
Poca received to start the second
half. They started march for I'm

Imboden rushed through Poca's line
for twenty yards before they were held
and the ball remained about the cen
ter Of the field until the end OF the
quarter.
In the last quarter Poca carried the
bali to Imbodens ten-yard line but on
an attempted end run the Imboden left
end broke through and threw Hogan
for a ten yard loss. Another end run
did not advance the ball but carried it
directly in front of lmboden's goal
posts. Blankenship dropped back to
the thirty-yard line and placed a per-
feet drop-lick between the posts for
three points. Here Poca's second team
linemen were sent into the game and
the battered first team took their
places on the side-line. lmboden re
ceived and advanced the ball to their
2O-yard line. On the next play, Willie
Burlington, diminutive sub end, broke
through a three man interference on
an end run and threw Imboden for an
eight yard loss. Imboden punted and
Poca fumbled the catch. Poca's light
line held them on their fOrty-yard
line, however, and Blankenship, on
two wide end runs crossed the line
for another touchdown. Goal was
missed. Imboden received and was
working toward the center Of the field

Woodrow Wilson Passes
HsSsEH

The great man has passed. Woodrow Wilson laid
down the burdens of troublesome life at Washing
ton February 3, thus creating date to be always
remembered in history. Our weary, pres
ident victim largely of the caprices of grateful and
ungrateful people, has passed to the great unknown
and in memory of achievement and greatness, to take
his place among the immortals of historty. 1t
he welcomed death relief from the bitter slings
and arrows of outrageous fortune" The unjust cal
umnies hea ped upon who wrecked his life in
the service of his country had their poisonous effect
upon proud and sensitive nature and the peaceful
and serene ending to which he was entitled was en-
bttered by thoughts of the wanton and vicious part
san attacks by the swarm OF gnats which fit about
illumined presence, leave sting and retire to OBJ
scrunty in the muck where they originate He had
not the placid nature of Lincoln to absorb insults
and be subject to the rdcule which Lincoln also
dured as result of it; but Lincoln is today the most
reverned of all Americans and Woodrow Wilson will
take his rightfui place along side of him, and with
Washington constitute the trinity of great American
presidents: Washington, Lincoln and Wilson.

tion of officers, the following
were elected for the next term:

that prices should be submitted
by L. r. Pyke, within the next
few days to each property owner
with the idea that each owner
would place a light in front of

place as many as eight lights or
more on the main streets Of the
city.
Among other things discussed
for the good Of KeYin was that
Of placing advertising with the
Pacific Northwest, advertising
being distributed by the Great
Northern Railway. A committee
was appointed by the chairman
on this matter consisting of E.
Herberg, M. C. Green and Ray
Kincheloe, to gather data and
procure photos to the end that
Kevin Oil Field should be rapres-
ented as the big oil belt cf MsaQ-

Making Progress
Laying Pipe Line From Sho-
shone Groupe TO Kelvin
Will Refine Soon.

That the Kevin oil field, centrally
located in the midst of the highest
priced retail gasoline market in the
United States, will be source of
great profit to the smaller indepen-
dent producer, as well as the Stand
ard oil and other large companies, if
they will go about its development
in business like manner, is recog-
nized by the Montana Giant Petro-
leum Company, concern mainly
financed by mining men from the
Spokane country.
This company who owns consider
able good acreage and production on
the west sde of the field, bought out
small refinery at Kevfn, are en-
larging its capacity to 1000 barrels
per day, with substantial brick con-
struction, and are laying their own
pipeline to the field. Today this line
is half way from the Shoshone and
Sweetgrass groupe of wells in Sec
tion 4-34-2 west, piercing good ter
ritory on its way to Kelvin, and it is
expected that within two weeks, the
remodelling of the refinery and the
laying of the pipeline will be com
plete and the company will be turn
ing out gasoline, kerosene, and dis
tillate to the trade and supplying
the main line engines Of the Great
Northern with fuel oil.
The company has secured the SER
vices of C. w. Splaun, Wyoming
refinery expert, who comes recently
from Grey Bull, and who will have
charge of the operation of the plant.

Then came the great speech in
the Senate in which Senator
Walsh reviewed the facts and
built up the legal phases of the
case like wall Of solid masonry.
1t is impossible at this time to
make a complete estimate of the
value of the services Senator
Walsh has rendered to his coun-
try in the Teapot Dome investi-
cation. He has brought to light
facts which on their face are
scandalous and which warrant
the most drastic legal action.
He has made it possible to re-
store the oil reserve upon which
the navy, the merchant marine
and the aerial arm of the service
must depend in the emergency
of war. He has taken the great
step to guard against unprepard-
ness in the future. When the
final chapter of the Teapot Dome
investigation is written it may
show that he has saved the life

Oil Production for Year
Past Breaks Record

Washington, d. G. January 81.
Production of petroleum in the
United States broke all records
in 1923, in complete figures in
dicating an output of 735, 900, 600
barrels, according to geological
survey statistics made public to-
day. This is an increase of 80 per
cent over 1922 and nearly 10000
900 barrels more than the total
worlds production in 1920.
In addition to the large domes-
tic yield, imports reached $4,000
barrels. Although crude oil eX-
ports totalled 100000 barrels
and consumption made a record
increase Of 20 per cent or approx
imately 711,00O,000 barrels, ac-
cording to the report, pipe line
and tank farm stocks increased
79,O00,00O to 333, 100000 barrels.
The report said the Unprece-
dented output was due to flush
yield" from a number of high
productive new fields in Califor-
MIA, Arkansas, Texas and Okla
hOma.
While prices tended downward
in 1923 due to over supply, the
report said the year 1924 "opens
with distinct change in general
conditions.
Production it said, has been
sharply checked and consumption
apparently will soon be greater
than the new supply so that it
will be necessary to draw upon
stocks. The peak Of production
may have been reached in 1928
and concern with regard to the
condition of over supply may be-
fore long give way to anxiety as
to a source of petroleum adequate
to meet the ever growing de-
mands."

The Empire Go.
Sells 40 Acres

| The Empire of Montana Oil
company has sold 40-acre tract
to the B. G. Montana Oil Wells,
Ltd, located Sc, ne, section 25-
35-2 west, and which has two
producing wells, the Empire
Stannard Nos. l and 2, storage
tanks, pumping plant, and a
shallow water well, drilled by the
Empire for water supply and pro-
ducing sufficient for drilling pur-
poses.
Colonel John Leader Of Van
couver and Portland is president
of the new company to enter the
field. While the purchase price
has not been made public, it is
believed to be in the neighbor-
hood of S125,OO0.
The B. C. Montana Oil Wells,
Ltd, is Incorporated under the
laws of the state of Montana for
one million dollars, and will main
tain it's office in Shelby, although
another office may be opened at
Vancouver. B. c., where most of
the stockholders reside.
Colonel John Leader, president
of the company made his first
inspection trip to their holdings
and thru the Kevin field, he ex-
pressed himself as very we'll
pleased with the company's pro-
p erty and said that he believed
the Kevin field to be a valuable
oil field.
Although the company he re-
presents has not yet completed
It's plans in regards to the field,
it is thought that they will make
extensive additional investments
here, should conditions remain
favorable, and the colonel stated
that he expected to recommend
to his board of directors that they
drill seven additional wells upon
the newly acquired tract, within
the coming season.
The Empire company has no
of retiring from the
field, as it still holds 120 acres in
the same vicinity, with two other
producers thereon and a rig built !
ready to go as soon as spring
opens. In addition it controls the |
Sage Creek structure southeast !
If the Sweetgrass hills, where it !
1as a standard outfit which had |
lrilled to $50 feet before shutting |
lown operations for the winter.
With new funds available it is ex-
,ected that vigorous develop /
nent will be the program of the
as soon as the weather
freaks.

Royalty Worth While
In Kevin Oil Field

Shelby, Feb. 4.-The value of
producing royalty in the Kevin
field, even with the present shut
| in condition and attendant low
price of oil, is shown in tine filing
of a suit in district court at Shell
by by I. T. Taylor of Great Falls
through his attorney Joseph A.
Kaufman of Shelby, asking for
damages Of $4,000 from P. R.
Gorham of Sunburst.
According to the complaint,
about November 1, 1923, Taylor
a real estate and oil broker, had
correspondence wit h Gorham,
who represented that he owned
and wished to sell one per cent
royalty on the tract known as the
Baker tract, being the sea, sw,
1852 west, 800 acres under lease
to the Ohio Oil company on which
they have eight completed wells.
The total production from the
eight wells, range in date of COM
pletion from January 27, 1923, to
August Is, at the time of the
shut down Of the wells on Oct
ober 20, was 186,282 barrels or
better than $4,000 average per
well for few months flow.
1t is alleged that Gorham gave
Taylor a 10 days option at the
price of $4,000 for one per cent
of this royalty, this soption extend
ing from November % to Decem-
Der 2, 1923. AS soon as the option
had been received, Taylor notif-
ed Gorham that he had sold the
and requested him to for
ward deeds for the property to
the Conrad Banking company Of
Great Falls, with instructions
that they be delivered t o the
buyer as soon as the money was
turned over to Gorham.
According to the complaint a
of letters and wires were
then exchanged copies being
shown in the complaint, Gorham
finally stating, that the Troy
oweetgrass, now merged in the
Potlach Oil and Gas company,
had paid up mortgage on this
land in which he was interested
and that he had agreed to give
them the proceeds from l per
cent royalty in the land, until the
