on the field, Dr. Metallic states that Burman, with three claims, has traced his main vein of three feet in width, for over a distance of 1000 feet, and this vein is exceedingly rich. It is be- lieved that these claims will develop into the biggest and most permanent strike of the district.
 The Hills Mining company, combi- nation of railroad employees, has driv- en in a tunnel for a distance of sixty feet and although has encountered sev- eral small pockets of rich ore, has not struck their main vein. Their second tunnel or shaft, twelve feet deep, has encountered a two foot vein that is seemingly very rich and permanent.
 Otis Harrington has encountered a four foot vein on his claim but as yet has not done enough development work to determine the extent of the discov- cry. It is said that Robert Hatch on East arm has very good prospects. F.. Lorraine, owner of six claims, has a fifty foot iron dyke on his property. Assays have not been made of the ore in this dyke to determine its quality, but lorraine has also quartz stringer about fifty feet from and parallel to the iron dyke that pans out very rich.

CALVIN COOLIDGE. REPUBLICAN CHOICE

All indications point to the nomination of Coolidge
by the Republican national convention, probably. by ac-
c~iamation. His campaign managers make the claim that
enough votes are already pledged to insure his choice
Hiram Johnson has practically quite the race, badly dis
tanced. The convention part of the Republicans cam
pagn is now about overs al but the the P 2bd 6Rg, Of a rr TRn2s
is GREAT advantage in avoiding bitter pre-convention and
mid-convention fights that are certain to leave wounds
Calvin Coolidge bids fair to keep up his repgta-
ton as a continuous winner and a man Of destiny. Inc
campaign is very young but it is hard to see how anything
short of an unprecedented upheaval can come between
him and an elected term to the presidency, rd indeed ia Ills Il is
ranks that would better hold the factions together and
stand before the voters Of the country 2q as q cIea an 9 baG =
most difficult position to fill since coming into office, ana

spectacular about Coolidge, he is additionally safe, sane
and silent. For that reason it will be difficult Tor tne
progressive West to become very enthusiastic over it,,! nlm n
the West by the present session Of Congress, and IS slgnea
by the President, it will do much to convince western
voters that his sphere of interest and his sympathe4ucq IN

"Mrs. Caroline Eugenia Tolkien,
passed away, early Saturday morn
ing at the home of her son Charles
f. Tolkien, after an illness of over
a years duration. Death came quiet
ly and peacefully to her and she
passed to the Great Beyond only
after everything, that her family.
her physician and her friends could
do, had been done to prolong her
life and to relieve her suffering. Mrs.
Tolkien was q woman of unusual
mental attachments. She was a wide
and discriminating reader and her
friends always found her an interest
ing conversationalist, a keen and in
telligent observer. She had a good
musical education and only her fail
ing health restrained her from par
ticipating in the literary and musical
functions of the community. She had
always been a devout and active
member of the Episcopalian church
and as long IS it was possible attend
ed and assisted with the services.
When this was impossible her bible
was her constant companion. She will
be missed by all those with whom she
was accustomed to associate.
Funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon at the Episcopal
church, Rev. Frank Lambert offici-
ating.
Caroline Eugenia Embury was
born on March %, 1855 at Rich
mond, Ontario. In 1875 she was unit
ed in marriage to Charles Tolkien.
Tolkien died in 1882 leaving be-
sides his widow, two children, Fran
els Ada, who died in 1901 and
Charles Embury Tolkien, of this
city. Besides her Mobridge friends
and neighbors, those who MOURN her
passing are her mother, Mrs. E. NJ.

half our list pays up at OF near their
date. The rest pay in six months,
a year, two, years, three years, or
never. There are far too many of
the nevers. Many move from one
place to another without giving a
change of address or stopping the
paper. Somebody else gets it but
usually refuses to pay and we lose.
Fully so per cent of what is earned
on subscription is never paid. And
that is too much.
We realize that spring is a tough

MANY falls for the delinquents to
come in and pay up. So we will
have everyone on the list who is in
arrears make a fresh start under the
new policy between now and the
first of May. But we do not want
a single subscriber to stop the paper
if they want it. If you do not want
it we do not want you to keep on
taking it-pay up and order it dis

But some will say: "We are away
back, several years, and positively
can't get the money by May 1st."
All right, we have a plan to fix that.
Pay as much as you a and we will
credit part of it in advance of May

rs cents or $1.25, we will credit all
that is paid in advance of May 1st.
The amount still back will be kept as
a separate account, although it will
be a charge against your subscrip-

sure expect it then.
We trust this plan is clear to you
and that it appeals to you as per-
fectly fair. The main thing is to
come in or write in before May LIST

of K. o. Riggin
Dies AT Hinsdale, First
NJ. E. Minister In Mont.

Hinsdale correspondence in the
Great Falls Tribune tells of the
death, on April 18th, Of Rev. Fran
els A. Riggin, first Methodist min
lister of the territory of Montana
and circuit rider half a century ago
in Montana, Idaho and Oregon.
Death resulted from bronchial
pneumonia, at his country home,
near Barr post office, at the age Of
76.
Funeral services were held Thurs
day, the 18th in Glasgow the Rev.
Puppy officiating. The body was
buried in the Glasgow cemetery be-
side that of Mrs. Riggin who died
six years ago. He leaves three sons,
Harrison B., Guy A., and Kent O.
Riggin, large livestock ranchers
near here.
The Rev. Mr.. Riggin came to
Montana in 1864 from Baltimore,
Md, and located at Virginia City,
thus being the first Methodist min
ister to locate in what is now Mon
tana. In 1870 he married Isabelle
Jordan at Fish Greek, Montana. She
was a sister of the Rev. w. M. Jor-
dan, superintendent of the Chris
tian church in Montana.
The Deaconess hospital in Great
Falls was organized by the Rev. Mr..
Riggin. He also was the instigator
of the Montana Wesleyan univer-
sity at Helena and he built the
Mountain View Methodist church
in Butte. He was presiding elder
of the Helena circuit for a long
period and later presiding elder OF
the Great Falls circuit. When he
became too old for circuit riding
'sBrother Van" (W. w. Van Orsdel)
came to Montana as his assistant.
For two years the Rev. Mr.. Rig
Gin was missionary to the Navajo
indians at Fort Defiance, Arizona,
and for ~ years he was missionary
to the Blackfeet Indians at Brown
ing.
He was retired from active minis
try rs years ago and moved to
Valley county in 1910.

The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1924-04-24

The Herald herein announces to
its subscribers, present and prospect
i've, the adoption of a new business
policy that has long been considered
and has now become necessary-the
only course CONSTANT with sound
business system.
This new policy is a ffty-fifty
proposition with two main features $:
Ten per cent discount to all
subscribers who pay for a full year
before, on, or within Is days after,
the date due. This actually reduces
the price of the paper to 1925, or
S2.70, according to the location of
the address. This feature is now eff
fective.
2-.Subscriptions that are six
months past due will be discontinued
after special notice, a final warning
and Is days of grace have been
given. This feature will not go into
effect until May 1, 1924, but will be
strictly adhered to thereafter.
The particulars of our subscrip-
ton prices and terms can always be
found in the masthead" at the top
of the editorial page.
All d%ailies, periodicals, and many
country weeklies employ the strict
cash in advance policy without any
discount. This seems a trife hard
boiled to apply in these times and
this country. But the policy above
stated appears to the manager of
this business absolutely fair and just.
If you pay in advance and trust us
to furnish the paper for a year we
will allow you for the use of your
money. If we trust you to pay, for
six months, without extra charge,
you should trust us the other six.
However, you do not need to pay
for a full year. Six months, or even
three months payment, in time, will
keep the paper coming.
Long experience has convinced US
that failure to pay for a newspaper
is more the result of neglect than of
inability to raise the money. We
believe that any of our subscribers,
during any six months of the year,
can dig up $1.25, or at least rs
cents, if they really want The Her
aid. This new policy is based on
that belief. The weakness of our
system in the past has been the lack
of a definite time for discontinuing
past due subscriptions. Unlimited
credit is bad for those receiving it
and dangerous to those giving it.
We believe that our readers will
agree that The Herald contains,
week in and week out, far more live,
worthwhile matter than the ordinary
