In the later eighties, although Plenty
Coups was still a man of powerful in.
fluence in his tribe, his friendship for
the whites and his efforts to induce
his people to follow the white mans
ways had reduced his following. The
rival chiefs Pretty Eagle, Old Crow, and
others of q more ~belligerent nature,
commanded the larger followings.
When the treaty Of the early nineties

surrendered the country west Of the

Crude Wooden Shovel Found in Boulder
Hills, Handiwork of an Early Surveyor

A crudely fashioned shovel, carved
from a section of a black pine tree and
believed to date back Sc years, is the
possession of Henry M. Lancaster, Hell
ena mining engineer, found by him
recently in the hills near Boulder.
The shovel itself is crude, yet must
have served its purpose efficiently be-
cause it is complete with partially
scooped-out blade and a roughly FASH
Toned hand grip on the opposite end
OF the handle. It appears to have been
constructed from a tree seven inches in
diameter.
The shovel was found leaning against
a tree and fairly well protected from
wind and rain. The lower edge of the
blade was in a rotting condition where
it had been exposed to the earth for
many years.
The area in which the shovel was
found was surveyed by Daniel L. Grit
fifth on July 30, 1870. Lancaster be-
lieves Griffith's men were forced to
use it.
They probably lost their regular
shovels and were forced to resort to
their resources to carve out one that
could be used for their purposes" ex-
planned Lancaster. AT that time, it
would have been a long journey to any
place where a shovel could be pur-
chased, and the men probably did the
best they could"

LAUREL'S new $4,000
RESERVOIR COMPLETED

Heading the list of completed prof.

water reservoir, which is located a mile
and a half north of Laurel and CON-
bines both scenic and practical value.
It is situated on a low hill overlooking
the entire Yellowstone valley.
The bowl is eliptical in shape, fin
ished in reinforced cement with a
quarter-inch steel underframe. While
the pressure will remain the same as
that produced by the water tower which
the unit replaces, its capacity will be
l 500, 900 gallons, or 20 times that of
the former system. During the last
year the city of Laurel, including the
Independent refining plant, has main
tanned slightly over 15-minute water
supply in case of emergency. The res
ervoir assures a two-day supply.
Twenty-four hours will be required
to fill the bowl which is equipped with
pipes bored through the IS

Throughout this and we suppose
other states which have been div
ided into districts, the federal gov
eminent has paid publicity agents
to keep WPA propaganda before

The Personal Property Tax
The most interesting news in this
weeks Sentinel for Benton county
readers is the personal property
tax list. The list this year reflects
the result of the constitutional
amendment passed by the voters at
the last election which eliminates
household furniture from personal
property taxation. While the list
contains about twenty per cent less
names than formerly, the rate is
higher and those that are left on
the list must pay the taxes of those
who were eliminated. 1t is just an
other case of "plastering" the few,
mostly industry and the farmers,
to pay the cost of government for
the many.
Regardless Of how unjust such a
law might be, 1t Is a simple matter,
through appealing to the selfish
ness Of voters, to pass such an

The Rural Sections Concern

Minneapolis has had considerable trouble in Ia
Dor matters for sometime, and seemingly is and has
been unable to cope with the difficulty For example
the Srutwear plant which has been closed for hong
time and is involved in suit to remove troops
that it may reopen for business and again give
work to it's old employees. That of course, is Min
neapolis business!
But when Minneapolis labor group threatens
to organize statewide strike among WPA workers
becomes the business Of the rural sections of the
state. We heartily in accord with the
ment of Victor Christgau, that any projects where
strike is called will be closed down Immediately.
Limited federal funds in Minnesota work relief make
it impossible to grant the demands for increased
wages The big job it is to give work to
more people.
We do not believe that WPA workers generally
will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs Men in
this community need work-they given the OPP
portunity to provide living for themselves and
their families through useful employment-and we
believe will resent these radical suggestions which
emanate from the Mill City radicals. Hardship would
be the only result from such assinine strike.
