during these six years, when Eastern fnanciers
tried to revive the bankrupt railroad. the
country west of Bismarck was being prepared
for the advance.
Chief Red Cloud of the Sioux. most warlike
of the Montana tribes had said that no rail-
road should be laid across his country. He had
wrested the land from the Crows and he now
dominated the region of the Yellowstone in
Montana.
When a Northern Pacific surveying party,
with force Of 1900 men and an abundance
of ammunition and supplies, appeared on the
Yellowstone in July of 1878 he was there to
resist them. The expedition was commanded
by Gen. D. S. Stanley, the 7th Cavalry Com
pany being under the famous Gen. G. A. Custer.
Part of the expedition remained garrisoned l3
miles above the mouth Of Glendive Creek while
the rest, with Custer and his cavalry in the
van. moved up the river.
The advance forces arrived at the Tongue
River without being molested. Soon after they
were attacked and Custer was rescued from
perilcus position by the main body.
THE Indians moved up the Yellowstone and
! Custer followed with $50 cavalry. When
the redskins crossed the river on RATS he
couldn't follow them because of the fast-howing
current so he abandoned the pursuit.
That night, however, the Sioux discovered
Clusters camp and opened fire across the river.
Three hundred of the warriors crossed the river
to the rear of Clusters camp. The cavalry dis
mounted and drove them back eight miles
Meanwhile the main column had come up
and opened fire with its artillery on the Indians
across the river. The Sioux were dispersed
and another step was made in opening the
Northwest territory
Thus was nearly every mile Of the Northern
Pacific along the Yellowstone contested by
Sioux. Crow and Blackfoot. But the railroad
moved on.
In the Winter of 1878-79 track was laid
across the Missouri River ice between Bismarck
and Mandan, N. OAK, and the line continued
westward.
To escape the rigors Of Winter small parties

Coulson's saloons, dance hall, stores, its
poor restaurant and worse hotel did thriving
business.
The railroad came and went a couple of
miles farther to what is now Billings, and Coul-
son gave up the ghost. Billings itself was
nesting place for doves. It was a wooden town
Of loose morals and went even Coulson one
better. Today Billings is one of the most ad
vanced cities of the Northwest.
Among the early celebrities who honofed
Coulson and Billings with their presence were
the well known Calamity Jane and Liver Eating
johnson. Much has been written about the
former johnson, who gained his sobriquet in
an Indian encounter, hailed from Carroll, on the
Upper Missouri, a rendezvous for the wolfer,
buffalo hunter, Indian fighter and whisky
ranger. Its score Of Indian skulls on as many
posts indicated the temper Of its inhabitants
rough, courageous pioneers.
Through this type of civilization in the raw
went the Northern Pacific Railroad. 1t followed
the Yellowstone to Livingston, west of which
rose the Belt or Bridger Range. Here was the
railroads first mountain barrier. A tunnel,
6,310 feet long, was cut, and on March IL. 1883,
the first train arrived at Bozeman Mont
In June the railroad was completed to Helena,
the camp in Last Chance Gulch which yielded
old John COwan and his men SIG 900 600, now
city which still is essentially western in spirit.
Twenty miles west OF Helena was Mullan
Pass, presenting six miles of heavy grades over
the backbone Of the Rockies. Tracks had to be
built for switch backs, for the tunnel was not
bored until some years later.
Eastward, at the same time came the rail-
road from Wallulla, in Washington Territory,
on the Columbia River. The tracks finally
joined few miles west of Mullan Pass near
Gold Greek, in Hellgate Canyon.
Great was the celebration at this rOint On
September 8. 1883, when Henry Willard, then

If You Get Up Nights
Make this Csc Test

Physic the bladder as you would
the bowels. Drive out impurities
and excessive acids that cause irri-
tation, burning and frequent de-
sire. Get a 25c test box of .BU-
KETS, the bladder physic, from
any drug store. After four days
if you are not relieved of getting
up nights go back and get your
money. BU-KETS, containing
buchu leaves, juniper oil, ETC., acts
pleasantly and effectively on the
bladder similar to castor oil on the
bowels. If you are bothered with
backache, or leg pains caused from
bladder disorders you are bound to
feel better after this cleansing and
you get your regular sleep.

HOUSE OF VICKS
EXPANDS PROGRAM
ADOPTS OWN METHOD TO-
WARD OVERCOMING
DEPRESSION
Especial to The Citizen)


GREENSBORO. N. c., February
2.-The House of Vicks-famous
for its various household prepara-
tions and plan for better Control
of-Colds-has it's own way of over
coming depression. Instead of re-
trenching, it expands. 1t employs
more people-spends more on it's
research division in developing
new products; more money for ad-
vertising them. This, in turn, re-
quires the purchase of more ma
terials, and helps other business in
allied lines.
Just lately. Vicks introduced a
new product-Vicks Voratone
Antiseptic. In it's production, and
in preparation for its marketing,
thousands of people were given
new or extra employment. Three
weeks ago, 1872 carloads of this
new mouthwash and gargle went
out through wholesale druggists to
Americas 10000 drug stores. In
each carload, there was an added
slice of prosperity for bottle MAX
ers, cap manufacturers, carton
makers, glass and paper mills,
printers and engravers-to say
nothing of the various sources of
raw material for the product it
self; and the thousands for whom
pay envelopes were created or fat
tened.
Nor does all this take into ac-
count the 100000 appropriated
for the Vicks Antiseptic introduc-
tory advertising campaign-over
$50 being spent in newspaper
space. It's Vicks answer to the
challenge of the times-"Can new
business be created in a period of
depression"
Vicks believes that it can be
done. In fact, is proving it. There
has been an amazing public re-
Spouse to the announcement of this
new product-of which there were
5000, 900 trial bottles made avail
able to druggists below cost of
manufacture, to make it easy for
the public TO test and prove its
quality-and economy. Born in a
depression year. Vicks Antiseptic
has been priced in keeping with
the times.
Immediate success of this new
Vicks product has not been unex-
pected. A year ago, Vicks intro
dueed two other new preparations
---Vicks Nose & Throat Drops and
Vieks Medicated Cough Drops. The
usual advertising appropriation for
a normal year was more than
doubled-and sales of both pro-
ducts went above quotas in like
proportion. The Nose Drops-new
aid in preventing colds--took inn
mediate lead in its particular field.
More than 20,o00.00e packages of
the Cough Drops were sold during
the first season. Sales SO far this
winter are practically double last
years figures for the same period.
Vleks Antiseptie represents the
first departure from the exclusive
field of colds for the House Of
Vieks. Its introduction was based
upon recognition Of the place that
oral antiseptics have taken in al
most every household as a modern
/. hyglenie necessity.

ent-Teacher Association was rep
resented by Mrs. E. ]. Bayly who

vide books for those children who

cording to Mrs. Bayly, the high
school Parent-Teacher Association
