BILLINGS EXPOSITION
ELABORATE IN SCOPE
SHOW IN APRIL WILL SURPASS
ANYTHING OF KIND ATTEMP-
ED IN THIS SECTION.

Billings, March 9.-It is the consen-.
sus that the 1929 Billings Auto,
Radio, Wholesalers and Jobbers ex-
hibition will be unsurpassed in ev-
cry respect because of the fact that
the number and quality of exhibits is
unprecedented. Every booth in the
mammoth auditorium at the Midland
Empire fair grounds has been taken,
while every auto dealer III the city has
engaged space in the center of the
room for the display of the latest
models of all cars handled here.
The entertainment committee is
planning the most elaborate program
in the history of the organization,
and already commitments have been
made which indicate most agreeable
surprises for the city's visitors. In
Guided will be number Of stunts
never before attempted at a Montana
automobile show, and judging from
the favorable reports as to their char
acter, they will prove a veritable
knockout, to use the vernacular E. ".
Keene has been selected as chairman
of this committee.
This is an electrical age and indica-
tons are that the displays along that
line will prove revelations to all who
may attend. Radios, the latest house
hold devices, and in fact everything
electrical will be on display. Natur-
ally, the latest models of all automo-
biles sold in this territory will be on
display and indications point to the
most elaborate and effective showing
ever made in this section. In fact, the
Billings show is being supported in an
unprecedented manner by manufact-
urers, which insures an Incompatible
display.
As in the past there will be no
boosting of prices by local hotels,
lodging houses, restaurants and cafes,
so that all may be assured Of reason
able charges for accommodations Of
that character. The dates for the show
have been fixed for Wednesday
Thursday and Friday, April 4, s and
s, and on the concluding night, the
automobiles will be removed so that
the entire auditorium may be devoted
to dancing. There will be both after
noon and evening shows, with style
displays featuring the former.

FAME OF SARGON NOW
SPREADS OVER NATION

Never before, perhaps, in all his
tory has the demand for proprie-
tary medicine ever approached the
wonderful record that is now being
made by Sargon, the new scientific
formula which has been accomplish
ing such remarkable results through
out this section. It's fame is rapidly
spreading over the entire country and
wherever introduced, Sargon is the
most talked of medicine in the coun-
try today. Nothing like it has ever
been seen before.
Sargon was first placed on the
market just little over six months
ago. It's success was immediate and
people everywhere were quick to rec
ognize in it new and epoch-making
product-a medicine of great power
and extraordinary merit. In leading
cities where it has been placed on
sale it has required from 10000 to
100000 bottles to supply the unprece-
dented demand, establishing record
probably never before equaled in the
history of the drug trade.
Countless thousands of men and
women, in all walks of life, suffering
with stomach, liver and bowel trout
bles, some Of them of long standing;
as well as thousands of weak, thin,
nervous men and women apparently
on the verge Of collapse have vol
unfairly come forward and testified
that they have been fully restored to
their normal health, strength and
weight by its use.
Still others, who seemed fairly
well; yet suffered with constipation
in its worst form, indigestion, dyspep-
STA, headaches, shortness of breath,
bad complexion, bad breath, loss of
appetite, sleeplessness at night and
of terribly detected, depressed feel
ings, stated that they have been en-
tirely relived of these distressing
symptoms and restored to health by
its use.
Sargon is the result of the last ten
years of world wide scientific re-
search; it embodies new knowledge
of certain organs and fluids of the
body recently come to light; it is help
ing build up rundown men and wonl-
en- by modern methods undreamed of
a generation ago.
Sargon may be obtained in Red
Lodge from the Economy Drug Co.

No Snake. in Green Isle

The Biological survey says that
there are no snakes native to Ireland
and never have been, so far as there
are authentic records. This is due to
its geographic position, isolated as it
is from the region in which these
vertebrates originated and which they
now oeeupy A few attempts have
been made to introduce harmless spe-
cies, but as vel its records show none
established on the island. This may
be due to a lack Of proper environ
ment, climate, disease or other abnor-
nal condition. The slowworm or lag
worm, legless lizard which SUPER
tieially looks very much like a snake,
is native to Ireland, and may account
for some of the snake records of that
country

ARLINGTON FIGHTS
STATE GAS TAX CUT
Reduction in Returns From
$4,000 to $4,000 or
$4,000 Threatened.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP,
StafY Correspondent Of The star.

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Va, January 31.--Warned by
Hugh Reid, member of the Virginia
House OF Delegates from Arlington
County, that the county is in danger OF
losing much of its greatest source OF
road-building revenue, the Board OF
County Supervisors is laying plans to
prevent legislation that would reduce
the present $4,000 annual gasoline tax
payment to between $12,0vU and $14, 900.
Appearing at meeting Of the board
yesterday, Reid explained that it was
only through strategy that the county
retained this revenue at the last meet
ing of the Legislature and that the
danger is still SO apparent as to require
every resource at the command OF
county officials to combat it.
Arlington County, Reid explained, is
now receiving $4,000 annually from the
gasoline tax. This money Is reappor-
toned to the county by the State in
proportion to the State taxes paid by
the county, Arlington receiving large
share, which soon may reach $3.50, 900
annually because Of its population and
resources.
At the last meeting of the Legislature
tnere were TWO measures introduced,
both calling for a new methof Of
Reproducing the counties share
of the tax. One bill set the distribu-
ton in accordance with area alone, and
the other referred to area, population
and road mileage.
Under the former plan, Arlington
County, the smallest in the State, would
receive but $4,000 annually and under
the latter would receive only $4,000.
Determined that neither measure
should pass, Reid combined with the
representatives from metropolitan Sec
tons, which could not profit by the
plan, and succeeded in having both
measures defeated by making sure that
neither was withdrawn in favor of the
other Had but one of the measures
been allowed to stay it would have
passed, Reid told the supervisors.
The strategy by which Arlington
County retained its present fund Is

VARNEY OPPOSES
ANNEXATION PLAN
Potomac Attorney Testifies
rs Per Cent of Townsmen
Prefer County Rule.
special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
ARLINGTON COUNTY, Va, jan
nary 31.-Walter U. varney, corpora
ton attorney for Potomac. va, and
member of the counsel for Arlington
County in the annexation suit of the
city Of Alexandria against the county
was called to the witness stand here
today to testify as an individual and a
resident of the territory proposed to be
annexed.
In the direct examination, conducted
BY State Senator Frank Ball, Varney
told the court that Potomac has every
thing necessary to operate independent
~ OF any city, including fine police and
fire departments, churches. schools and
stores as well as moving picture
theater.
Seventy-f1ve per cent of the residents
OF the town are opposed to annexation,
he said. and Of the more than 1000
adults with whom he Is personally ac-
quainted in the town he does not know
OF 200 who are in favor of going into
the city. Among those opposed are the
business men of the town, whose taxes
would be greatly increased as q result,
he said.
WOHLd increase License.
Varney stated that business and pro-
fesSional men of Potomac pay an an
nual nat license fee of SO, while the
much higher rate of Alexandria would
apply if the city wins its suit. He said
the city tax on automobiles, based on
the weight of the machine, ranges from
200 to 800 per cent more than the fat
rate of 50 charged for all types Of ma
chimes in Potomac
As an example, Varney said, his own
automobile tax would be increased from
50 to $3.50, while his annual tax of $40
for practiCing law in Potomac would BE-
increased to approximately $50. He
added that all licenses in the city range
from two to three times more than the
same licenses in the town.
On cross-examination by Albert v.
Bryan of the counsel for Alexandria,
Varney admitted that his fees as cor
porAtion attorney for the town would
cease If the city wins the annexation
suit He. also admitted that he was
employed by Arlington County in the
current proceedings to fight annexation.
Change Of Attitude Cited.
Varney told the court that Mayor
William KleySteuber of Potomac had
spoken in opposition of annexation
when the suit was first instituted, but
that less than 80 days after being de-
feated in the election of a supervisor
from Jefferson majesterial district Kley-
stetber advocated the retaining of spe-
ciaI counsel to represent Potomac in
the case and asked for annexation by
the city.
On cross examination Varney was
asked by Attorney Bryan if he had
remarked to A ueWSpaper repCrter that
he would move cut of the town II
the city wins the case. He admitted
that he did.
rs that promise or q threat"
Bryan asked.
.'Neitl(r," replied Varney.
John. 8. Barbour, chief Of counsel
for the county. read into the court
record statistics taken from State
record showing Arlington County to be
the leading county in the State in re-
CARDS to assessments per acre.
