death Claims Prospector Well
Known in Early Days.
William Criderman, who died in
Spokane last week, was one of the
early day prospectors in the Occur
d'Alene district. He was one of the
locators of the claims now known as
the Reindeer Queen and Cumberland
groups, situated on Willow creek
east@of Mullan. It is recalled that he
was working ON these Willow Creek
claims when a snowslide swept down
the mountain and killed two of his
associates. Mr.. Criderman was also
caught in the slide but managed to
dig out Soon thereafter he sold his
Willow Creek holdings to Big Bill
Harris. After leaving the Occur d.
Alenes, Mr.. Criderman prospected in
Sanders county, Montana, and located
the Silver Butte mine on Fisher
creek, near the head of Vermilion. He
sold this property to company rep
resented by Alfred Brile, who resided
in the Occur d'Alenes at that time,
and who until few months ago
was superintendent of the Dickens
mine. 1t is said that Mr.. Criderman
and his partners received $4,000 for
the property. The Silver Butte is the
"forgotten mine" rediscovered about
year ago by Rolla Woolly and
,Adolph Haupt of THIS city. Mr.. Cri-
Iderman was also the locator Of the
Silver Cable mine, near Libby, Mon
tana, and is said to have received
$4,000 for his interest. In 1891 Mr..

HOTEL AT COLUMBIA FALLS
DESTROYED BY FIRE

Travelling statesmen coming to Lib
by Sunday morning brought the news
that the Gaylord hotel at Columbia
Falls had been burned. Later press
dispatches told that many guests
were forced out into a, blizzard and
10 below zero weather When the hotel
was destroyed by fire of unknown
origin. The blaze started in the attic
bof the three-story brick building.
Weather conditions made effective
fire fighting almost impossible
John f. Lewis, proprietor Of the
hotel and also owner Of Glacier hotel
at Lake Mcdonald, saved three valu-
able pictures painted by the late
| Charles M. Russell, Montana's cow
boy artist. One Of these, 1.-THE Three
Wise Men," was valued at $4,000 by
Mr. Lewis. The building and its CON
tents were partly insured.
The fire was the third large one
/ Columbia Falls has-had within the
| last six months. Kalispell and White
fish fire departments were unable to
respond to call for aid because Of
snow-blocked roads.

TARIFF IS DEFENDED
purpose Of Agricultural Tariff
Is to Encourage Crop
Expansion

Chicago. April l9- y Sam II.
Thompson, head Of the American
Farm Bureau federation, in a state
ment issued here. last night defended
President Hoover's proposals for Sc
curing farm relief through tariff ad-
justments, a policy provocative Of
congressional criticism.
The nature of some Of the argu-
mcnts advanced against the presi-
dents remarks on tariff. Mr.. Thomp-
son said, warrant raising the question
OF why a tariff OH agricultural prod
ucts Is necessary.
1T seems the purpose OF an agri-
cultural tariff Is to encourage crop
expansion. while at present We are
not producing a sufficient quantity
to meet domestic demand.
This increase In quantity will re-
suit in reduction In those crops OF
which. we are now producing sur
plus. Thus our surplus crop problem
will be met In some measure"
Some congressman have raised the
point he said, that increased tariff
rates on sugar should not be granted
because sugar factories would gain
from the tariff as well as farmers
The fcderatton's position on this
point Is that. II higher duties are
placed on an. imported agricultural
: commodity. that increase. will reflect
back all the way to the growers, even
II the professors arc benefited incl
dentally. What is the logic of denying
the farmers their possible benefits be-
cause factories may be prosperous?
ITO advocate. as these congressman
do, that the sugar manufacturers
must divide their profits with tho
farmers before congress would be war.
ranted In granting higher tariff
duty is equivalent to arguing that the
packers must divide their profits with
livestock raisers before increasing
