CONSIDERABLE INCREASE In 1925
TAX LEVY FOR CARBON COUNTY
County's Expenses Due to Increase in Allowances
for Roads, Bridges and Home Demonstration
Agent Ten Mill Increase in Tax Levy for Red
Lodge Over Last Year.

County Commissioners J. b. Con-
very of Silesia, John T. Kelly of
Castagne and Lee Gard of Belfry met
in special session Monday for the
purpose of fixing the 1925 tax levy
for Carbon county.
Carbon county's expenses this year
will be about thirty thousand dollars
greater than last year. Most of the
increment is due to the increase in
allowances for roads and bridges as
well as the addition of the office of
the county home demonstration agent.
The road estimate was raised from
sec, 800 Of last year to s74,78b for the
current fiscal year, which began July
1st. The bridge estimate was raised
from $4,000 to $29,5O0 to care for
bridge on the Clarks Fork and con-
changes in roads and the
construction of bridges. An addition
Of $4,000 in the operation Of the Of
flee of home demonstration agent
makes a combined increment of
27,7s5.
The county levy is as follows:
General fund, 8 mills; interest on
bonds, 3 IL mills; poor fund, 2 mills;
sinking fund, / IL mills; road fund,
5 mills; bridge fund, 2 mills; general
school, Q mills; old age pension, 1-2l

MONTANA CITIZENS TO RAISE FUNDS
TO REBUILD CALLATIN COUNTY SCHOOLS
Local Committee to Start Saturday to Raise
Funds for Damaged Schools.

Governor j. +. Erickson has issued
proclamation, calling for contrihu-
tons from citizens Of Montana to re-
PAIR the damage done to Gallatin
county schools by the recent earth
quake.
Thomas F. Pollard was appointed a
member of the executive committe for
Carbon county by the governor, and
meeting was held at the Beartooth
Boosters club rooms Monday evening
and it was decided to make a drive on
Saturday to raise funds for the re-
building of the damaged Gallatin coun-
ty schools. A committee from the
Miners union will canvass the busi-
ness district Of Red Lodge while COM
mittees have been appointed to can
vass the residential section of town.
The condition in Manhattan, Logan
and Three Forks call for immediate
help in order that a partial restoration
of the damage can be made through
voluntary contributions. The loss to
Manhattan, Three Forks and Logan is
relatively just as great and quite as
serious from damage standpoint as
is Santa Barbara's. The fund will be
handled directly by the state beard
of examiners composed Of Governor
j. +. Erickson, Secretary Of the State

c. T. Stewart and Attorney-General
l.. A. Foot.
1t is the governors appeal that
every county do its part. Montana
has given gladly and literally and
properly to the Belgians, French,
Near East, japanese and many other
good causes, but all remote. This is
Montana's first opportunity for yolun-
tary subscriptions to help fellow Mon
tanans, principally the daughters and
sons Of our neighbors.
Donations for the reconstruction Of
the school buildings may be in such
sums as the individual may feel to
give and thus avoid the calamitous
situation of depriving the school chill
dren of these districts Of the benefits
that would ensue from an uninter-
rupted term of the schools.

tains and valleys intersected by num-
erous large, rich and, in some respects,
very remarkable veins and deposits Of
rich ores.
Geology
The highest mountains about Cooke
City present feature which, though
common in this part of the Rocky
Mountains, is seldom seen in the noun
tains of the Atlantic Coast. Mountain
ranges and spurs and peaks usually
appear as if the central and highest
portions had been forced up through
the horizontal surface strata, leaving
the latter fractured, tilted and lying
against the side of the mountains
But in the highest mountain at Cooke
City, the central and highest peaks
have been forced up through the hori-
zontal surface rocks as stated; but
instead of fitting the surface strata,
the disturbing forces lifted them bod
lily to a height of some 5000 or 10000
feet and left them in a horizontal
position as before they were disturbed
Another uncommon feature is quite
obvious in these mountains. The
horizontal strata which form the sides
of the mountains are but little changed
in their outer edges, but they are much
more metamorphosed and fractured
next to the basalts and trachytes, or
ancient lavas. This is true Of the
Morning Star, Black Warrior, Home
stake, Elkhorn, War Eagle and many
other mines. This class of mines is
in fissure or contact veins.
Other mines In these mountains are
what the miners call blanket veins.
They lie nearly horizontal between the
rock strata. Others still appear to
be irregular veins with vast pockets
filled with ore, usually in or adjacent
to the limestones.
Such is the geological structure of
the high mountains known as Miller,
Henderson, Woody, Republic, Sheep
and Red mountains. These mountains
are actually covered with hundreds
and hundreds of mineral locations.
Some have been developed as to show
their value and prove them good
mines; while the greater number have
been but little worked and are simply
bright prospects.
At the head Of the Saltwater and
Slough Creeks are some low, rounded
mountains or foothills, called Granite
Range and Limestone Range which
contain many important mines. There
are also large aeras on the head
waters of the Soda Butte Greek, Rock
Creek and Clark's Fork covered for

The committee was taken to the new
Smelter, which is just about complet-
ed and ready for operation. The
smelter was put in operation for the
benefit of the committee, which showed
it to be an up-to-date, modern plant
and is capable Of handling 300 tons Of
ore per day. DR.. Tanzsr informed the
committee that the purpose would be
to haul in coke to smelt the ore and
haul the metal out. This and other
companies have met many strenuous
obstacles both in the forest depart
ment and in the park service. At the
present time all transportation into
Cooke has to pass through Yellowstone
Park but when the road is completed
from Red Lodge to Cooke, on grade
of not to exceed five percent, this will
permit easy transportation both ways
in the matter of coke for smelling
purposes and the metal to be hauled
out.
We are reproducing photographs of
this wonderful property of the West
ern Smelling and Power Company,
through the kindness of DIR. Tanner,
president of the company. The COM
mittee secured number of samples
of ore from the companys property,
which runs very high in values, and
it was and is the opinion Of the COM
mittee that if there ever was a prop
erty that had a promising future it is
the property Of the Western Smelling
and Power Company.
Aside from having this well equip
ped, modern smelter the company
owns is own hydro electric plant,
bungalows, bunk houses and all equip
ment that is necessary to run an inn
mense force of miners and smeltermen.
The property is being developed and
progress has been remarkable for con-
sidering the fact that the property is
located in such an inaccessible terri
tory. One tunnel is 2,125 feet long
and is within short distance where
the tunnel will tap the main ore body.
This mine is connected with the smell

the most part with low. rounded knobs
and ranges, which have been but little
explored, though some minerals have
been discovered in them.
Cooke City, the commercial center
of the District, is surrounded by lofty
mountains with pointed peaks and
sharp ridges surrounded by rounded
foot hills. These mountains to the very
SUBMITS are intersected with numer-
Gus mineral veins containing iron,
lead, zinc, copper and manganese. all
carrying silver and gold.
1t is believed that fully one thous-
and claims have been located in this
district since its organization.
This whole region drained by the
head-waters Of the Soda Butte Creek,
Clark's Fork, Rosebud, Saltwater and
Rock Creek belongs to the New World
Mining District.
Another very interesting feature Of
this is that all of the above creeks and
rivers head within very small area of
this district. Some of them flow north,
south, east and west but all find their
way eventually into the Yellowstone
River.
Among the mines and bright pros
poets in this district are the following

The tax levies set for towns in the
county are as follows:
The tax levy for the city of Red
Lodge is ten mills higher than that
for last year. At the July meeting
of the city council 1t was found that
the city was in debt 5000 and it was
necessary to increase the levy on city
property and this levy was fixed at
81 mills. The additional increment is
due to the need Of funds for sewer
