ROYAL CANADIAN
WILL DRILL FIVE
Purchasers Of Campbell Acre
age Spot Sites Will Build
Field Camp Soon.

Initial operations to be launch
ed in the Kevin field by the Roy
al Canadian Oil Company on the
acreage recently acquired from
Gordon Campbell will represent
an outlay Of at least 100000 and
the figure may be larger by the
time operations now authorized
are completed, it was announced
in Great Falls Tuesday by Mr..
Campbell. In the transaction
through which the Campbell int
erests were taken over by the
Royal Canadian. Mr.. Campbell
was retained as managing direc-
tor in charge of operations in
Montana and Canada.
Five wells will be started by
the company as soon as weather
conditions permit and additional
work decided on will be the erec-
tion of a complete camp in sec
tion 23-35-3 W, a mile and a half
north OF Kevin. Surface rights
on 16O acres Of the Sohn farm
have been purchased for t h e
camp site and central headqurrt-
ers will be maintained there as
soon as the buildings are erected
and equipped. The camp will in
clude the central offices, living
quarters, warehouse and other
buildings necessary to conduct
the extensive operations, accord
ing to Mr.. Campbell.
Water for drilling will be piped
from nearby lake and at the
start gas will be piped from one
of several gas wells in the vicin-
ity. Later on, the company may
drill a gas well as permanent
fuel supply, Mr.. Campbell said.
All of the first five wells to be
drilled have been spotted, the To-
cations being in sections %, 25
and 26 in township 35-3w. Two
will be in section 25-35-3 w, an
other in section 26-35-3 W, the
fourth in section 23-35-3 W, and
the fifth an offset to the Camp
bell-Stewart No. 6. on the Stew
art lease.
Drilling operations on these
wells will cost approximately
$50, 900, Mr.. Campbell estimates.
and the cost of the camp. ware
house, gas and water lines and
other necessary equipment will
amount to an, equal sum Great

SolOns Urge Probes
Of Gasoline Prices
Within State Lines

Helena, Jan. %. Prices o f
gasoline in Montana will be in
vestigated by a joint committee
of the house and senate if a reso-
luton introduced in the house
Friday by Fitzgarrald, Flachsen-
har, Dello, Lincoln, Strange,
Campbell, Zeh and Castles gets
past the two bodies. This meas
ure is listed as house joint reso-
luton 5.
The resolution recites that it
appears the price of gasoline is
higher in Montana than in ad-
joining states and that there is a
general complaint against such
high prices, but as the price of
gasoline in the state may materi-
ally effect legislation in the mat
ter of the gasoline tax it is re-
solved that committee Of six,
to consist Of three members of
the house and three from the
senate, be appointed to investi-
gate and to report back to the
assembly before the 4Oth legis-
lative day.

WITNESSES CALLED
FOR INVESTIGATION

Any uncertainties that may
have surrounded the nature of
the proceedings in the John Doe
hearing in which the supreme
court Of the District of Columbia
has summoned two score Mon
tana men as witnesses were dis
PEELED Wednesday with the an
nouncement at Washington that
testimony is being reassembled
in relation to matters charged In
the indictment returned in Great
Falls againct United States Sena-
tor B. K. Wheeler. The reassem-
bling process now is under way
in Washington and will be sub
mitted to a grand jury there
early in February, it was stated.
Senator Wheeler's s associates
have been informed that the SEN
ator himself will be summoned
before the grand jury, in addi-
ton to witnesses who appeared
before the Great Falls jury last
April and many Of those who
were before the senate committee
which investigated the indict-
ment. Asked for an interview at
Washington Wednesday, Senator
Wheeler declined to make any
comment for publication.
Department Of justice officials
also withheld announcement on
the subject, but it was under
stood the prosecution, in moving
for action in Washington, in
tended to bring the case in the
territory in which the alleged in
cidents leading to the original
indictment took place." said an
Associated Press dispatch receiv-
ed Wednesday night. 1T was al
50 indicated that the scope of the
proceedings might be widened.
Senator Wheeler, who has
characterized h e proceedings
against him as "frameup" was
formally charged in the Montana
indictment with arranging in
violation Of legal restrictions re-
sulting from from his election,
to receive a fee of $4,000 from
Gordon Campbell, a Montana oil
man from services in the leasing
of public lands. At the time the
grand jury action was taken he
was engaged in directing the
senate Daugherty investigation.
A special committee Of the SEN

proceeding was unjustified.
Nevertheless, the indictment
was held on the docket of the
Montana federal court last sum-
mer and fall, while Senator
Wheeler was engaged in cam
paigning for the vice presidency
on the LaFollette ticket and it
still remains in that status.

KEVIN OIL & GAS
BRINGS IN WELL
Most Important Strike Proves
immense Territory on West
Side VIII Drill More.

With the possibility that an en-
tirely new producing territory
had been located in the north
west corner of the Kevin field,
with the bringing in Of the Kew
ia Oil & Gas company Herman
No. 1. we'll located in sw NV sec
tion 21-36-3w, II miles northwest
of Keyin and 6 miles southwest
of Sunburst
The bit touched the sand Fri
day afternoon, and that evening
between so and 80 feet of oil was
standing in the hole, with the
bit thought to be above the pro-
ducing member Of the Ellis, at
the depth of approximately 1,840
feet. No water has been encoun-
tered and drilling will continue
to the Madison lime. Jf>a greater
production is not found there the
we'll will be bridged back to the
Ellis where production is estima-
ted at Is barrels per day.
Thirty-one hundred acres are
owned on the structure by the
syndicate Of which A. ]. Archan-
bault is president, and Fred
Wear division superintendent of
the Great Northern railway, w.
L. Cliff and others are interest
ed.
The location is north of the
Lincoln, Black Magic, MCGOWAN
and Rainbow tracts, and the
Gordon Campbell discovery, six
miles to the southeast, is the
nearest well that could be con-
sidered producer; The extent
of the territory that would be
proved by a successful compile
tion at the Kevin Oil & Gas we'll
has not been estimated, but oil
men say that it would be one of
the m important develop
ments in northern Montana since
operators began to make oil his
tory here.
Drilling was suspended at the
we'll six weeks ago, when wealth
er conditions made it impossible
to continue operations. Early
in the week the crew began set
ting casing preparatory to drill
ing and the drill was started a.
gain late Thursday afternoon.
At the time the rig was shut
down it was thought that q posi-
BILE producing sand was short
distance below the bit.
The we'll is a short distance
from the well known as the Apex,
which suspended operations some
time ago without an announce
ment being made as to results
obtained. Rumors have been
afioat all winter in the field con-
corning the Apex and reports
persist that developments at the
we'll were of considerable con-
sequence.
This company expects to drill
several more wells on their acre
during the coming summer.

ARGUMENT SET
in WAGE CASE
FOR NEXT FALL

Notice that the argument in the
minimum wage case will be de-
ferred until the next session of the
United States Supreme court next
fall was received Tuesday by John
w. Murphy, attorney general Of
Arizona. The case was to have
been argued this month, but was set
over by stipulation of counsel for
both sides.
The case involves the constitu-
tionality of the SIG minimum wage
law for women workers, passed by
the sixth state legislature, which
was to have become effective in
June, 1923. Shortly before the bill
was to become operative, A Sardell,
of Nogales, brought suit in the fed
eral court attacking the constitu
tionality of the measure on the
ground that it deprived him of the
right to contract. The matter was
tried before court of equity in Los
Angeles composed of two district
federal judges and one judge from
the federal circuit court of appeals.
The court ruled that the bill was
unconstitutional and issued the en-
joining order restraining the state
from prosecuting Sardell for failure
to pay the wage. The state then
appealed the case to the United
States Supreme court.
The case will be remembered in
June, it was stated, and will be re-
set for argument next September or
October.

Natural Stadium Is at
HOlbroOk's Very Door

@FThe Holbrook bowl, stadium, am
phitheater, or whatever it may be
called, is a natural circular de-
preston, probably $50 or 400 feet
in diameter, in the center of which
is high conical peak, such as is
commonly seen in all parts of the
wonderful Painted Desert, short
distance from Holbrook. The small
vale in the center is surrounded
with what is termed the mesa,
probably elevated from forty to
fifty feet above, with opening en-
trance facing the town.
1t was in this bowl that the com
munity Easter services were held.
The acoustic properties are such
that the ordinary voice can be
heard distinctly at distance of 300
yards or more.
Located as this natural stadium
is, half mile north of the bust
ness section Of Holbrook, it means
that in the future many great out
door gatherings will take place
there as the community grows.
The stadium certainly is one of
the wonders of the world. DR.. S.
Earl Taylor, who has travelled the
world over, says he knows of no
other place on earth with the re-
markable acoustic properties of
this natural amphitheater at the
very door of Holbrook, aside from
Mount Sinai, where, according to
legend, Moses talked, in Palestine.

very latest out, and why not? The
buyers for the local stores realize
that the best is none too good for
the trade they cater to, and so it is
the woman in Winslow may wear
the same pretty styles that delight
the hearts of her sisters in larger
places.
Style Features.
The absence of embroidery and
the exclusive use of lace distin-
guish underwear styles this year,
while the cut is plain to conform
with the straight lines of outer
garments.
Teddies, nighties and all under
things are delightfully."- colorful
Canary, coral, dragon green, the
fushia tints and a few pretty blues
are featured most, while black for
underwear seems to have retreated
into the background during the
present mode.
In one particular shop in town
there is a wonderful display of silk
lingerie trimmed with handmade
lace. Step-in combinations, nighties,
and teddies all have a touch of
this matchless handwork.
The New C0rSette.
Something new in the corsette,
too, is found there-something
which arrived only a few weeks
ago from New York as a garment
which had just been put on the
market. 1t is called the ensemble
corsette and is in reality brassiere
and corsette combined. Instead Of
opening all the way down the side,
it unfastens only half way up, and
is stepped into" 1t is shown in

New Smelling Process to
Be Tried Out at Bisbee

The Calumet and Arizona Mining
company, of Bisbee, has entered
into an agreement with A. G.. Nc
Gregor, well-known consulting en-
gineer, to construct a miniature
plant at the company's smelter in
Douglas for the purpose of expert
menting with new process of
smelling ore. The new process
was developed by McGregor, and if
successful will revolutionize the
copper industry, it is said. 1t is
known as pyritic smelling, and will
dispense with the ovens and much
machinery uesd at the modern
smelter, with a saving in labor
cost of approximately SO per cent.

Fire-Proof Concrete
Made From Gypsum

Houses made fireproof by gyp-
sum concrete walls" are described
in the current issue of Popular
Science Monthly. The magazine
says:
Gypsum, commonly called "p1as-
ter of Paris" which has been used
for centuries for plastering walls,
rs the essential part of a new fire
proof building material Mixed
with cinders, gravel, crushed stone
or furnace Stag, and poured into
forms, it can be used to construct
main walls and partitions of one
and two-story buildings. 1t is pos
sible now to erect an entire house
of this incombustible mineral at
cost that compares favorably with
that of a wooden building
While it takes ordinary concrete
several days to harden, gypsum
concrete will harden within thirty
minutes. This speeds up construc-
tion work, lessening labor costs.
Also, since the material sets so
rapidly, comparatively small
aumD0r OIL IOrmS can De uSoQ over
and over as the walls go up. An
other advantage is that gypsum is
considerably lighter than other
concrete.
All corners and openings are re-
inforced by steel rods or welded
steel fabric. In one-story construc-
ton. outside walls are made at
least six inches thick; in two-story
buildings eight inches, while parti-
tions need be only three or four
inches thick.
In laboratory test made recent
fy by the department of civil engi-
neering at Columbia university,
wall of gypsum concrete was sex-
posed to fire and kept under tenn
perature of LOO degrees Fahren-
heit for an hour. After the test the
exterior surface of the wall showed
no signs of the heat. When the side
of. the wall exposed to the flames
was washed with water from fire
hose it showed only little of the
cement washed away, leaving a
slightly pitted surface.

inexpensive ones to the most ex-
quisite silk brocades.
Step-in panties to be worn with
lace bandettes also are interesting
at one of the stores. The two when
worn together would make the cool
est imaginable combination for
summer wear, and the little lace
bandettes are charming indeed, fea-
tured in all colors and trimmed
with ribbon and bows.
Cotton Materials.
Cotton materials are very good
this year, too, for dainty under
things, and the new lace voiles
which are found about the shops,
the gaily-colored mercerized pom
gees and the plain soft voiles bring
irresistible temptation to milady
who would make her own lingerie,
and she should be glad that local
merchants make it possible for her
to enjoy these things.

What delights milady more than
the loveliness of dainty silk and
lace? Its sheerness, it's charm of
combination, its soft touch have in
them an appeal which to her is
almost irresistible. What wonder
then that she should want to wear
these dainty underthings, and what
wonder that manufacturers, in an
attempt to satiate her desire, would
place on the market a more capti-
waiting display of lingerie each
year!

BASEBALL FANS TO
DISCUSS PLANS AT
COMA BNEXT WEEK

Plans for the winter baseball
season in Fl Centre are already be
ing discussed by those who are in.
tcfcstcd IN the national game, and
4 preliminary organization meeting
is planned FOR this city next We'd
ueSday evcnin, the details Of which
viii be made known later.
Last year, with teams in FL Cen
tro and Imperial, Il very successful
six team league was maintained
throughout the winter months, pro-
viding unusually good baseball for
the people of this city. There has
been some talk in the last few
days Of extending the territory of
the Imperial Valley Winter league,
as i was called last year, so as
20 include CalcXico, Brawlcy and
HoItriile, in addition to Imperial
and this question will be settled
at next week S meeting.
Frank Richmond Of this city is
president Of the league, and is very
much interested in providing good
amateur baseball during the winter
season. Past experience has prov.
ed that the employment Of high sal
aricd professional or semi -profcs-
sional playcrs is not practical in
the valley and the brand of ball
played last wear by amateurs was
sufficiently fast to satisfy the av-
cragc fan.
Being one Of the few places in
the United States where winter
baseball can be played, Imperial
Valley should take advantage of
this fact TO advertise itself in n
way that viii obtain considerable
faNorab,e publicity for the com
muni'Y, is the attitude the local
bail players take, and they be-.
Ii"Vc that good homc-tacnt baseball

Contrasting with the main event,
which should bring out plenty of
the fine points in the game Is the
semi-final between Battling Doty

Los Angeles. These men are slug
gers, with a fair amount of boxing
skill, but depending more upon their
ability TO hit hard in order TO win
a victory than upon any defensive
