the Westland company has asked
the railroads to give northeastern
Montana a more favorable rate so
that the small distributors, the
| dealers and the consumers IN
| northeastern Montana would be
able to buy their gasoline at the

that their neighbors in North Da-
kota are paying" it was said by j.
B. Townsend, Vice president n
sales manager of the Westland
company.
Because the railroad companies
declined to act favorably on the
Westland company's request, on
Jan. ~, 1881, the Westland com
pany filed a complaint with the
interstate commerce commission
in which it alleged that the rates
were unjust and unreasonable, not
only from the midcontinent field
into Montana, but from Minot to
Montana as well, and asked in that
petition for a level of rates that
would put Montana on the same
basis as neighboring states"
