! The only new construction on this
proposed route would be up Wyoming
Greek and over to the Clarks Fork
River a distance Of about thirty miles.
There being already fairly good road
from Cooke City to the Dickinson
ranch near the Beartooth Lake. The
whole distance from Red Lodge to
Cooke City by way Of the new route
will be about ffty-fve miles, and the
cost as estimated by local engineer 7.
v. Hatcher, will not exceed two hum
dred fifty thousand dollars.
The Possibilities Of the Road.
The new road from Red Lodge to
Cooke City, all of which Is in Carbon
and Park counties, will tap some Of the
richest mineral deposits in the state
of Montana.
This road will go near the greatest
chrome deposits In the United States.
These chrome deposits are very rich In
value; running from thirty per cent to
fifty-fve per cent in chrome and
percentage Of nickel, which adds 70
it's value. All Of these deposits will
be within two miles of the new road
and some on the right-of-way.
There are forty different veins and
deposits. and it has been estimated
that there are more than a million tons
in sight and in passing, we may say,
that there are only four states in the
Union that have chrome deposits,
Montana ranking first, with the larg-
~
est deposits in Carbon County, Cah-
fornia next, then Oregon and Wash
ington There are only four nations
that have any chrome deposits, Rus
sia ranks first, but will not permit the
expectation Of chrome, next the Unit
ed States, Turkey third, and India
fourth. Large chrome deposits In
South Africa have been worked out.
According to the best information
obtainabIe there is only about fifteen
years supply of chrome m Sight which
is being used sst~Tsively in the manu-
facture oErffgh grade steel, such as
automobile gears and high class ma
chinery. All kinds Of cutlery is now
manufactured from nickel chrome.
Chrome was not used in this country
20 any extent until during the war.
Since then it has been extensively
used in the manufacture Of the above
named items.
On the new road the first ore depos-
its are near Richel Lodge, twelve miles
from Red Lodge, and extend to He'll
Roaring Creek and Lost Picket Creek,
sixteen miles from the railroad.

HINDENBuRC'S ELECTION.

Massachusetts considers a PROPOSE
tion interesting to other states. The
idea is to oblige railroads killing com
petition annoying to them, but useful
to the public, BY interfering with the
omnibus passenger lines. The scheme
is cleveriy worked out.
First, owners of omnibuses using
public roads would be compelled to get
certificates of public necessity and ur-
gency.
That isn't SO very dangerous, be-
cause public opinion which would de-
mand convenient omnibus service
could bring pressure to bear on the

interviews in going over the plans and
maps and possibilities Of this wonder
full project Colonel Greeley informed
the delegation that he would ask Dis
trict Forest Supervisor Fred Morrill,
of Missoula TO make an examination
of the feasibility of the road. After
the delegation returned from Wash

Morrill, and went over the plans of the
proposed road. Mr.. Morrill, gave a
memorandum to Mr.. Shelley stating
that the forest department would make

as 1t was feasible to go over the pro-
posed route. Later, Mr.. Hatcher, who
had made the original survey of the

with Mr.. Shelley and DR.. Siegfriedt
again went to Missoula with complete
maps, photos and drawings Of the pro-
posed road. Mr.. Morrill,, District For
est Supervisor, and Mr.. Theme, Dis
trict Engineer, spent considerable time
with this committee going over the
plans and the contour maps of the
proposed route. The last steps in this
great project were taken when Sem
ators Walsh and Wheeler, upon their
recent visit to Montana, went to in
terview Mr.. Morrill, at Missoula, Of
the forestry department. Senator
Wheeler, who was met at Columbus
on Tuesday Of last week by j. p.

accompanied him as far as Billings,
stated that District Forester Morrill,
gave him and Senator Walsh absolute
assurance that The foresty department
engineers would be in the field to make
the investigation just as soon as called
by the committee and that an abso-

Four nations are racing to reach the
North Pole. MacMillon hopes to ar
rive first with the American flag and
his two airships.
Anyhow, whatever happens in this
race, the United States reached the
Pole first.
AS to owning that territory, there
need be no quarrel. There is oil there,
within the Arctic The Rockfeliers
have actually proved it and produced
it, although they do not mean to bring
it out.
And as the Pole shifts, the different
stars one after another become our
Northern star, which is not at all
fixed and nnchanging. Today =
Polar lands will lose their carpet of
ice, men will live there, on fertile
fields, and "Polar night will be To-

But it would also be necessary for
an omnibus line to get a permit from
the local authorities of every little
town and village through which it
might pass. With such law in force
it would only be necessary for the rail-

bodies and that wouldn't be difficult,

The railroads need something 10

permission.

WOnu7, Counsel
Wins CIen,ency
; For Negro SIaye,

Mrs. Pearl B. Klein, the first
woman lawyer to defend a man
charged with murder in the local
criminal courts, made an effective
plea for cIemency yesterday to
Chief Justice Mccoy and saved
Benedict Brooks, colored, five
years service in the penftentiary.
Brooks had been charged with
murder in the second degree, but
the Jury reported a verdict Of
manslaughter and took occasion
to request that the chief justice
impose the maximum sentence for
that degree Of homicide, which is
Is years Imprisonment. After
Mrs. Klein had invoked the Glenn
ency of the court, pointing out
the extenuating circumstance that
no deadly weapon was used, but
that Brooks had struck John Yates
with a brick November II last
and that death resulted, the chief
Justice sent Brooks to- the peniten-
tiary for 10 years.
Mrs. Klein, in securing the re-
duction of the charge against her
client from second degree murder
to manslaughter, saved him
minimum of five years and by her
plea today saved him san additional
five years. Assistant United States
Attorney Neudecker prosecuted
