ANCSTMAN UPHELD
BY SUPREME COURT
Justice Sustained in Case
Appealed to Higher
Court

In a recent decision handed
down by the U. S. supreme court,
Associate Justice A. H. Angstman
of the Montana supreme court is
sustained in his opinion in a case
appealed to the higher court.
Chief Justice L. A. Galloway
joined with Angstman in a dissent
in opinion, from a ruling made by
a majority of the Montana SUI
preme court.
In the suit of Mieyr against the
defunct Federal Surety company
of Iowa, appealed to the United
States supreme court from the
state supreme court of Montana, a
decision has just come down from
the highest judicial body, reversing
the local court in part and re-
handing the case for further pro-
ceedings. The opinion of the high

by Associate Justice Cardoza, and
the decision is in harmony with
the dissenting opinion of Associate
Justice A. H. Angstman.

FISH ANSWERS QUESTION,
WHO is KITCHEN CABINET

Washington, April 10. - The
question of who is the Kitchen
cabinet Of the present admins
tration is answered by Represent
ative Hamilton Fish of New York:
"The president has established
a new form of government. He
leans but little on his cabinet or
on congress. The real government
consists of a kitchen cabinet of
professors, radicals and near Soc
ialists. Many of them are admir-
ers of the system of government
in Soviet Russia and are bending
their efforts and energies to bring
about an approach to that system
in America. President Roosevelt
evidently is not concerned with
either the Constitution or our
representative form of govern
ment, or he would not have asked
for unlimited powers to make
reciprocal trade agreements with
foreign nations. The request it
self is unworthy of the president
and must be another brain trust
proposal entered into without ma
ture consideration"

Westlake reported.
The western part of Carbon
county is badly infested, the coun-
ty leader reports. Hoppers r be-
ginning to hatch, but the Matching
process is not expected to reach
its peak until about ten days to
two weeks. Flowing with a mold
board pillow is recommended in all
infested districts before the egg
Matching starts. The use of the
pillow was stressed up to May is.
"All grasshopper eggs plowed
under now, means less use OF
poison" Mr.. Westlake said.
A campaign against Mormon
crickets has been under way for
sometime in the Dryhead area, the
county leader said. He reported
that an area about IA miles in
length and about s miles wide is
badly infested at this time as we'll
as at east Pryor. In some places,
he reported, the ground is a living
mass Of the pests. A spray solu-
ton of arsenic and hydrated lime
is being used to fight the scourga
in that area, he said.

BUILDING PLANS
FOR DISTILLERY
. GOING FORWARD
Officials Await Arrival of
Expert Before
Continuing

Plans of the Yellowstone Dis
tilleries, Inc, are going forward
rapidly and with entire satisfac-
ton, according to the officers and
directors of the company.
An experienced distiEer, con-
nected with one of the large dis
tilleries in the east, is expected TO
arrive in Red Lodge shortly and
will supervise the remodeling of
the building owned by the corpor-
alton. Installation of the distillery
machinery and equipment will al
so be under the distiller's super
vision in accordance with govern
ment regulations. No work win
be started, according to the Of
f%icers, until the expert arrives.
Innumerable requests for jobs
in connection with the distillery
are being received daily and all
local help, so far as is feasible,
will be employed with the excep-
ton of experts. The officers fur
ther stated that stockholders in
the corporation will be given
preference providing they are COM
petent for the position.
A limited amount of common
and preferred stock will be of
fered for sale and the people of
Red Lodge and Carbon county
will be given the first opportunity
to purchase this stock. 1t is the
aim of the company to make this
a Carbon county industry.
Rye and corn grown in the
county will be used as soon as the
supply is sufficient to meet the
demands of the company. Thirty
thousand bushels of corn and the
same amount of rye will be used
each year, making a total of sixty
thousand bushels of Carbon coun-
ty grain to be consumed each year
and furnishing a local market
which has not been available here
tofore. Growers of corn and rye
are asked to get in touch with the
officers as soon as possible for the
fall delivery.

WATER SITUATION
ACUTE IN COUNTY
Water Commissioners
And Plan to Set Up
Rigid Control

With the water level of Rock
creek at its lowest ebb for this
time of the year within the MEM
DRY of old timers, steps were TAX
en- here this week by District
Judge Robert G. Stong for a rigid
control over the use of the creeks
waters for irrigation purposes.
A. E. Sanderson was named as
water commissioner to supervise
the use of irrigation water on Red
Lodge creek, while r. w. Lanter
was appointed as head commits
sioner on the use of Rock creek
water. Serving under Lanter as
appointed deputy commissioners
are E. t. Walker, Elmer McVey
and George Mcdonald. The courts
orders were effective at once.
With hot weather yet to arrive,
the Rock creek water situation
was pronounced acute at this
time. Reports coming here from
towns in the lower valley of Rock
creek were frankly pessimistic in
regard to the 1884 irrigation out
look. The stream at many points
along the valley, it was reliably
stated, has been reduced to a
mere trickle and a be easily
stepped across. AT Joliet a short
age of drinking water for the
towns residents was imminent, it
was said. The low water level has
made it possible to catch fish with
the bare hands at several places
along the stream, it was also
stated.
Meanwhile water users rights
have been dropped to 1913 and prior
to that date. This was regarded
as a serious situation in view of
the fact that '93 priority rights
were only reported to last year at
the streams lowest ebb during the
drought period.

CHROME OFFICIALS
DECLARE DETROIT
TESTS SUCCESSFUL
Valuable By-Products Can
Be Obtained From
Local Ores

Tests of He'll Roaring chromits
ores at the Detroit Testing labor
atories exceeded expectations of
officials of the Montana Chrome,
Inc, Thomas L. Huxley, a COM
pany director, said here Tuesday.
This news was brought back by
E. B. Hubbard, chief mining engin-
eer of the company, upon his re-
turn from the east Friday where
he supervised the tests.
Although Mr.. Hubard's reports
are not complete at this time for
publication, it was learned through
the tests made at the Detroit lab
oratories that the He'll Roaring
ores would produce valuable by
products.
.mong these it was found that
pigments to be used in paint man
ufacture could be successfully ex-
tracted from the ores. Chrome
pigments are held to be of great
value in the manufacture of paint
being next in order to ochre pig
ments. Chrome salts can also be
extracted from the He'll Roaring
ores, it was stated. The salts are
used in the tanning industry.
Chronic acid, used in the chrom-
ium plating process, could also be
produced from the local ores.
Mr.. Huxley stated that a con-
tract has been made with respon-
sible eastern parties to take the
entire output of the company for
the next five years up to 30 tons
a day. 1t was intimated that it
a practically a certainty that
Red Lodge would be selected as
the site for a ferro-chrome reduc-
tion works to smelt concentrates
from a concentration mill to be
located near the ore bodies at the
head of Rock creek.
While in the east, it was stated,
Mr.. Hubbard interviewed Claude A.
Swanson, secretary of navy, and
other government officials. Much
interest in the potentialities of the
He'll Roaring chrome bodies was
evinced by these high government
officials, it was said. Assurance
that the government would CO.
operate in the development of the
r bodies was given mir. Hubbard.
The government also promised
that any surplus production of the
local company would be consumed
iby government contracts.
Development work is well under
way on the He'll Roaring chrome
sites, company officials said. Drills
are in operation in the tunnels
penetrating the ore body and sew
eral rounds have already been
blasted on tunnel faces. Develop
ment work is to be rushed as fast
as possible, officials said, and it is
now planned to add another shift
of men for work in the mining OPP
erations.

OHIO PUTS ACID TO
NOVEL USE TO OPEN
WELL AT DRY CREEK

Hydrochloric acid was put to a
novel use in opening the Robinson
well of the Ohio Oil company at
Dry Creek recently, it was report
ed here.
The Robinson producer, located
in the west end of the field, and
considered n of the largest wells
at Dry Creek, had been causing
trouble to the oil men by showing
a presence Of upper water. Efforts
to shut off the water flow by ce-
menting inadvertently caused the
cutting off of part of the wells
producing sand.
Hydrochloric acid was run into
the hole and quickly disintegrated
the cement, opening the sand
again to production and restoring
the Robinson's initial production
of better than 1000 barrels a day
by the removal of the cement.
Hydrochloric acid is used to in
crease production in lime fields
and the use of acid on the sand
field of Dry Creek caused much
speculation until it was learned
that the purpose there was to re-
move cement from the well, it was
said.
The remainder of the acid used
by the Ohio company at Dry
Creek was taken to the Garland,
Wyo., field where, it was reported,
it was used with great success in
treating a we'll in a lime forma-
tion

ion, perhaps better than any of his
other accomplishments, that Mr..
Leavitt has been an untiring
worker as a congressman. How
ever, his record as a member of
the congress for the past ten
years is even more Illuminating
During this decade as a law
maker, Mr.. Leavitt secured the en-
actment of 101 laws under his own
name, in addition to many others
jointly introduced and which first
passed the senate. Others lost
their identity by being included as
amendments or items in omnibus
bills.
This record is even more re-
markable when it is shown that
during the ten years, covering
five congresses from March A
1923, to March A, 1888, the tota.
number of bills passed by congress
was 6,508, that there are Abs repre-,
sentatives and 90 senator's, total
