To the People Of Montana:

Although, at the time the News goes to press,
returns from the primary election are not all ill.,
it is apparent that I have been defeated for the
nomination for United States Senator, on the Re-
publican ticket. | made an uphill fight to place
my views before the people, being opposed by all
of the daily papers that are owned and controlled
by the most powerful interests in the State
Irrespective Of results, desire to express my
deep appreciation of the efforts of the business
and professional men of Red Lodge who endors
ed my candidacy and who unselfishly gave their
time to the promotion of my campaign, believing
that the mutual interests Of Red Lodge and Car
bon county could best be served by submerging
all local differences in community spirit and 10y
atty in order that fellow toWnsman might be
placed IN office where he could more effectively
accomplish the long hoped for development of
this section. To the best of my ability, however,
pledge my continued efforts to the welfare Of
Carbon County and Montana
I sincerely hope that through the News I
may convey some measure Of my appreciation
OF the generous support given me by the many
weekly newspapers who came forth in behalf of
a fellow newspaper editor, and who have I'M
doubtedly established precedent that hereafter
no candidate will run for office without consd-
ering the weekly newspapers.
wish to thank those Montana Republicans
who expressed themselves at the polls in accord
with the issues I represent, and earnestly hope
that these fellow citizens, brother editors and
friends will zealously continue to support the
principles of the Republican party as expressed
in the platform adopted at Kansas City.
Gratefully yours,
O. H. P. SHELLEY.

new COAL MINE is
DISCOVERED HERE

A new wien of coal that has new
er been worked before and I'M
known to coal men in the Red
Lodge and Bearcreek mining dis
trict has been opened up for pro-
duction within the city limits of
Red Lodge by Guy Pollock, who
has been following the mining
business for the past 25 years in
the Red Lodge mines. Coal Of
ficials and authorities state that
the new discovery has opened up a
new outlet of coal superior in
quality to any other that has ever
been mined in the Red Lodge or
Bearereek mines within the past
ten years.
Pollock begin prospecting for
coal along the banks of Rock Creek
last Winter, during his spare time,
and by chance discovered a small
cropping of coal within stones
throw of the Northwestern I'M
proyement Company's dump, which
is claimed to be the largest in the
world. The prospector believed
that it did not amount to much,
but through curiosity he sank his
pick into the formation and began
removing the dirt. He found that
the vein was approximately two
and one-half feet in height and
about quarter of a mile wide.
During March, Pollock begin de-
velopment work on his discovery,
after obtaining ten-year lease
on the holdings from William Lar
kin, president of the United States
National Bank of Red Lodge, and
owner of the property.
This week Pollock had a tunnel
extended about $50 feet into the
hill, driving the shaft in on a
water level. The mine has been
producing very clean coal and con-
tains practically no foreign e1e-
ments. Pollock stated today that
he expected to produce between so
and go tons day within the next.
month, as he plans to employ sew
eral men With the near future
for further development of the
holdings.
Due to the lack of capitol Pc
lock was compelled to do practical
ly all of the development work
alone, but ready market has been
developed for his coal, which has
enabled him to prepare for extern
sive developments.
"The mine is one of the best
prospects in the state" Pollock
said, "No timbering is necessary,
although some is being put in for
safety purposes, however. The
roof is solid sand rock. The coal
officials and authorities from other
districts who have visited the mine
claim that this is one of the best
coal mines in the state for its
size"
A survey has been made of TIE
mine, and it is believed that the
vein extends over one mile into
the hill, east Of Red Lodge, and is.
over a quarter of mile in width.
Engineers state that the coal will
improve in quality as the shaft is:
extended.
Pollock is preparing to make.
several improvements within the
next month, such as improving the
road leading from the highway to
the mine, and installing consider
able modern machinery.
