Nothing But Truth.
Both the railroad officials and re-
representatives. OF various Montana or
ganizations who spoke, we're united
in one plan of procedure that only
the truth about the state should be
told either in advertising, by inserts
or posters or by letters and that the
sort of settler for the state should
be person of some capital, exper-
fence in farming and having intelli-
gence and a willingness to work.
December is Montana Month
Particular attention is to be paid
this year to Montana Month, .
which is set for December, at which
time the railroads, the Great North
ern, the Northern Pacific and the
Burlington will do much advertising
in certain publications, by posters
and by radio, moving pictures, lee
tureers, letter inserts and other de-
vices to direct the notice OF the
public this way. Montanans, strong
in the conviction that Montana pos
sesses great resources and presents
opportunities for settlers, viii CO.
operate in every way possible. At
this recent meeting some good talks
were made along this particular
line.
P. S. Eustis, passenger traffic
manager for the Burlington, who
was scheduled for an address at the
meeting, was unable to be present
on account of illness which overlook
him In Spokane. Talks were made
by A. J. Dickinson, passenger traf-
fic manager Of the. Great Northern.

Mr.. Masterson drew a number of
posters advertising the Meredith

STATE NORMAL TO
HAVE CRACK GRID
SQUAD THIS YEAR
From Montana State College

u1HE Montana State Normal Col
lege, at Dillon, will go more de-
i finitely into the field of college
athletics this winter. with present
plans including teams in all of the
major college sports. Bruce Hollis
ter, a three-letter man at Montana
State College in the class of 1928,
is chosen this fall as member of
the Normal college faculty and will
coach the athletic teams. Mr.. Hol-
lister taught In the high school at
Glendive last winter
Coach Hollister has enrolled num-
Der of promising athletes for this
winter. He expects to build what
will be the first football team in
years at the Normal college and has
already planned for strong basket
ball squad this winter. HOLSTER
was great football end on the State
College Bobcat squad of 1921 and
1922 and was rated one of the fast
est guards ever seen in the state in
basketball. For two-years he was
all-state basketball guard. In ad-
dition he plays baseball and has done
some track work.
The addition to the State Normal
College to the list of institutions hay-
ing plans for strong athletic teams
means a great increase in state
sports in the future. In past years
the organized college teams have
been forced to go out of the state for
much of their competition. At pres
ent there are six strong college ath-
letic departments in Montana, in
Guiding the Dillon school, and these
should form a state sports competi-
tion each year of statewide inter
est.
Besides being a famous athlete,
Coach Hollister was one. of the lead
ing students at Montana State Coll
eye. He was president of his sopho-
more class, member of the Fangs,
of the honorary Les Bouffons, and
was frosh advisor. In his senior year
he was one of seven college men
chosen to the Septem Viri, or gov
erning body of men. and was can
didate from Montana State College
for the American Rhodes scholar
ship. He has made fine reputa-
ton as teacher and his friends ex-
pect him to make an equally fine
record as an athletic coach.

Montana.
1t was at the little station of
Gold Creek, on the line of the
Northern Pacific where the road
enters the Hell Gate canyon, that
the last spike in the construction
of that transcontinental railroad
was driven.
Henry Willard, the indefatig-
able promoter of the Northern Pa
cific scheme, had assembled for
the spike-driving ceremony one of
the most distinguished crowds ever
brought together in the west.
William M. Evarts was the orator
of the occasion. General u. s.
Grant was member of the party,
as was also Henry M. Teller, then
secretary of the interior. There
were scores of European digni-
taries-German counts and barons
among them who had been finan-
cially interested in the railway pro-
ject through the efforts of Mr.. Viii
lard. These guests had been. Law

entertainment was continued after

however, the main line was com
pleted and the construction of the
line up the Deer Lodge valley was
due to begin, the Union Pacific
had reached Silver Bow and dis
puted the prospective right-of-way.
The contest was settled by a COM
promise which resulted in the CON
struction of the old Montana I'm
ion, owned jointly by the two COM
panies.

failure of both companies. In the

the result of piece OF jobbery
familiar to most Montanans, and
which was constructed only by a

ic that accompanied the ceremony.
The crowd listened patiently
enough during the address Of Mr..
Evarts though it was Geasral
Grant they wanted to hear, and
when other speakers attempted to
deliver themselves of carefully
chosen words expressive of their
appreciation of the Importance of
the event and the lavishment of
Mr.. Wizards hospitality, the Mon
tanans would have no more of it
and they blocked all attempts at
spread-eagle oratory with their
calls for their idol--the military
hero whom they had come many
miles TO see and hear.
General Grant responded with
one of his characteristic speeches.
He did not speak long but he said
a great deal and his audience thor
oughly appreciated what he said.
Then there was more music and
more artillery and the ceremony
was over.
When Mr.. Willard succeeded in
rounding up his herd of counts
and barons-they were continually
missing trains and getting left en-
roulette tour of inspection was
resumed. Mr.. Willard had much
to show his guests. They repre-
sented the German capital that he
had interested in the road and it
was important that they should be
favorably impressed by the coun-
try which the new railroad ira
yersed. There we're all sorts of
side jaunts arranged for their edi-
fication Many western Montanans
will recall the ascent of Mount Nc
Donald in the Mission range. Mr..
Willard had built wagon road
we'll up this famous peak, and he
took his guests up there on the
Flathcad Indian reservation.
And so it was until the coast was
reached, and when it was all over,
so the story goes, the German
counts and barons telegraphed
home orders to sell all their North
ern Pacific stock.

stupendous outlay of money and
a great sacrifice of time, This
great error was not appreciated by
Northern Pacific officials until
long afterward. Then an attempt
was made to rectify the error by
the construction of the new line
into Butte by way of the Pipe
stone pass.
