GOLD BOOM READY
TO GET UNDERWAY
IN COOKE REGION
Report Building Activity;
Will Truck Ore
Here

Cooke City, hailed as the center
of the richest gold strike in Mon
tana since the days of Last Chance
and Alder Gulch, is beginning to
stir with intense activity.
Snowbound for months, the
warm suns of the past few weeks
are bringing new life to the Bear
tooth mountain hamlet. A dream
OF fifty years is about to become
a reality as Cooke City prepares
for the greatest boom in her his
tory.
Reports brought here by visitors
to the region this week say that
considerable building is about to
take place there. Logs and build
ing material have been assembled
during the winter months and con-
struction work is to get under
way within a short time.
According to the records of
Park county, 1877 claims have been
located and locations recorded dur
ing the past Is months from the
Cooke City mining area. However,
it is said, that many of these were
probably enormously located, ow-
ing to the lack of knowledge Of
~locators as to boundary lines.
At Red Lodge plans are now be-
ing made to ship Cooke City ores
from the rail head here. Ores will
be hauled from the mining district
by truck to Red Lodge and shipped
to the East Helena smelter. Three
railroad cars will be loaded here
daily with Cooke City ores, it was
revealed. 1t is expected that the
amount will be increased until a
fleet of 80 trucks are employed in
bringing ores daily from the min
ing district throughout the sum-
mer for shipment to the shelters.
Marked activity is reported in
the Daisy Pass region at Cooke
where a wide area of gold-bearing
clay is being exploited. 1t was in
this area-known as the New
World district-that Walter Nc
Laren discovered the large gold
content of the c%olored clays last
year. Considerable activity took
place in the region at that time
but news of the strike was sup
pressed until it leaked out in late
October. The first winters storm
halted the onrush of gold seekers
to a great extent, although there
has been some activity going on
in the region throughout the win
ter months.

NIX COMPANY GETS
CONTRACT TO WORK
ON PARK SECTION
1921 Mile Section of Tower
Junction-N. E. Entry
Road Let

The Morrison-Knudsen Construc-
ton company was awarded the
contract to build a 10h mile sec
tion of the final link of the Red
Lodge : Cooke City highway.
Awarding of the contract to the
NIX company was the first to be
made on the route, all of which
lies within the Yellowstone park
boundary, and which will connect
Red Lodge with the park loop.
The contract was bid in by the
company for a sum of $185, 675 and
calls for the construction of a
grade extending 10.529 miles from
the northeast boundary line of the
park, west of Cooke City, to a
point a short distance below Peb-
BILE creek.
Three bridges are to be o n
structed on the 10h-mile NIX
contract. The first of these will
cross Soda Butte creek a short
distance within the park boundary
line, and the second will again
ros the creek 3 miles farther on.
The third bridge will be construct
ed over Pebble creek near its con-
junction with Soda Butte creek.
Bids for the building Of the bridges
and approaches will be advertised
as soon as plans for their c~onstruc-
ton are complete.
The remainder of the route ex-
tends to the park loop road con-
Meeting at Tower Junction. Plans
for the construction of the remain
ing section r complete and esti-
mates have been made. 1t is ex-
pected that the entire project, in
GLIDING bridge constructions, will
be under contract this summer.
Routing of the remainder of the
road is now being decided upon.
Two lines have been run in the vi
cinity of the Lamar river. One
takes the route down the river can
yon and the other goes over the
hill. The park service, according
to information reaching here from
the bureau Of public roads at Dem
yer, is in favor of the canyon line,
and present estimates are in ac-
cordance.
Two locations have also been
made east of Tower Junction. One
line follows the high ground and
involves the construction of a high
bridge over the Yellowstone river;
the other line drops down into the
canyon, crossing the river at a
point lower down and then climbs
out to Tower Junction.
The high line is approximately
1000 feet shorter and would be
much cheaper in grading construc-
ton and is held to be much more
preferable from many standpoints.
The decision in the matter has not
been made and bridge designs on
whichever line is adopted are be-
ing postponed until soundings can
he made this summer.

The opinions written by Justice
Angstman show that he regards
human rights as more sacred than
property rights and that he be-

receive the same protection by the
courts as those Of the rich. He

that the procedure on appeals
