TaImadge Sits In Gl0Um
IN the funeral atmosphere Of the
governors mansion early today,
after most Of his followers had TAX
en- their discouraged way homeward,
"Gene" Talmadge, his red gallouses
removed, sat IN solitude studying
these figures: For senatorial nom

ties, (some inconplete), Russell,

complete returns are In"
His Boast Wrecked
Nine months ago Talmadge an
nouhced that he. would lead 2,000,-
900 "discontented democrats" out Of
the party because Of President
Rposevelt's national policies. Last
year he led grass roots" Oonve1-
ton that was TO have launched O
movement TO oppose him to presi-
dent Roosevelt for the democratic
presidential nomination, but Moth
Ing came Of It. Despite the pull
against him in the popular vote, II
was still mathematically possible for
Tnlmpdge and his follower, Red
wine, TO win under 0eorgia's county
unit law. Each county casts cleo
coral votes, on the basis Of It's popu-
lar vote, and these decide the issue.
Votes Talk Otherwise
On the basis Of the latest popu-
lar vote count, sac electoral votes
we're indicated for Russell, SO for
Talmadge, and 206 are needed to
nominate. But In some counties the
vote WAS close and the last Stfag-
Cling returns might conoeivably,
throw some electoral votes from
Russell to Talmadge. In the guber-
material race, 3lS electoral votes
were indicated for Rivers, 10 for
Redwine. Judge Blanton Forston,
the third candidate for the romin-
alton. was 80 far out Of II that
counters had ceased tAbulating hia
vote. Talmadge was taking his ap-
parent defeat hard. The United
Press correspondent gave him new
figures early today and was thank
ed In q voice that shook. A son OF
the Georgia backwoods, he fought
his way up through q study Of law
and close attention TO rural poll
tical fences, TO become the strong
est POLITICAL force In Georgia.
Today, his ambitions and even his
political organization seemed to be
crashing down around him. His
term as governor expires In Jatiu-
airy.

and followers, jubilantly received

WE BUY ANOTHER CUT BANK ROYALTY

future of the Montana oil industry. Our
greatest hope is that we can get our
share of royalties before the day of great
prosperity arrives. Those will be selling
days. There are factors at hand that
lead us to believe that possibly boom"
is at hand. In a confidential bulletin
issued to members this week we pointed
out an impending situation that causes
us to urge members to MAKE UP THEIR
MINDS what constitutes profit.
We look back to the greatest errors
that were made in the early days of this
organization. They were not in failing
to buy or in paying too much but FAIL
ING TO SELL. We saw royalties for
which we had paid 81 to 50 per acre
point go to 1920 per acre point. No
tears, no threats, no prayers or demands
could force some of our people to SELL
Ito TAKE A PROFIT.
We encourage our members to regard
royalty investments as the purchase OF
real estate: not like stocks which are
to be bought today and sold tomorrow.
But the time is at hand, If certain things
come to pass, when royalty prices are
going soaring. At that time we want
our members to have a SELLING fig
URE-not to try to get the last penny,
but instead, a satisfactory profit. Our
members, owning proven ground royalties
purchased for less than the price of or
binary WILDCAT royalties. will doubtless
lave to supply the buyers of the future
for they can sell at q large profit and
still under-sen the current demands OF
.anuOWnsrs urging a boom.
This week we are issuing a plat on
Cut Bank. Unless It were q bargain, we
would not handle it--not while we are
getting tracts in Kelvin with 100 barrels
of production for less than is ordinarily
demanded for outside royalties at Cut
Bank. Our Cut Bank property is on the
edge OF production, with drilling well
that will tell the story within matter
Of days-and with good authorities say
ing that 1t has a chance for production
comparable with the Santa Rita-Lander
we'll. The price we are paying is on the
basis OF wildcat royalty, although it is
so close to production that it cannot
classify as wildcat.
This plat win be issued to those who
ask for it.

low the deepest present producing hori-
IONS of North Montana.
Oddly enough, our greatest concern
is not about the market. We are fearful
of higher prices. The viewpoint of roy
atty investor is not that OF the operator.
The royalty investor who is building for
a personal fortune does not want HIGHER
prices for OIL He wants LOWER prices.
Take Cut Bank as an example. We as
royalty investors know pretty wen what
we want in Cut Bank. But we cannot
get it at the present time, with wells run
ming at capacity,
Let Cut Bank be pro-rated to 40 or
even 80 per cent; let the price of crude
drop to $115: at THAT time we could
go into Cut Bank and get what we
want at prices that would make good
investment. That is the thing to be de-
sired by the royalty INVESTOR. What
he would lose in revenue for the next
year or so would be made up ten thousand
times over by the advantages of buying
in a depressed market. If Cut Bank con-

price of crude goes UP-we are virtually
out of that field we will not pay the
prices asked because none ever made a
profit trading dollars"
1t is like buying an automobile. If
Henry Ford should raise the price of his
car. which is a good and desirable one,
by $500 or $400, and we wanted to buy
a car, would we go without one on that
account, or would we pay the price?
Neither. We would buy a Plymouth or
a Chevrolet and save the difference.
So it is in oil fields. If man cannot
make a dollar do as good service in Cut
Bank cas- In Kelvin, he will buy In Kelvin.
If he can't make dollar do as good SER
vice in Montana as It will do in Cali
fOrnia, he will buy in California. For
that reason, we are not paying the prices
demanded in Cut Bank. Our members
have made a lot of money in Cut Bank.
However, the Cut Bank situation was
responsible for depressing the Kelvin roy
atty prices to point that when we re-
turned to Kelvin buying, we have made so
cents do as much in Kelvin as 81 would
do in Cut Bank.
We have absolute confidence in the

u EFT ANYONE SAY what they will,
we of us who are close to the stu
alton in Montana know that a new
era is at hand in the North Montana oil
industry. Important happenings of the
next year will firmly establish Montana's
oil industry in its rightful place in the
nation: looking toward an expansion Of
Montana's refined products market. The
only reason that Montana has not claimed
its nominal trade territory has been the
fact that Montana has had no appreciable
amount of gasoline to sell. With most
of the north Montana oil going to
Canada, Montana refiners have contented
themselves in operating their plants at
capacity.
When Montana begins selling its crude
oil in the form of refined products. it
will arrive for the first time at stable
existence. Located as this state is at
sufficient distance from the Midconti-
nent and California flush fields to bar
serious competition, Montana should have
a steady, permanent market-which it
will have in the not distant future.
Heretofore, Montana producers have
been dependent upon the whims of the
Canadian market. When the Canadians
buy crude oil, MOntanans are ION top
of the world But when Canadians shut
down their refineries-as they always do
in the winter time-Montana crude mar
kets are glutted.
There was a time when North Montana
storage tanks were run low in the fall
and then as outgoing shipments fell off,
the price of oil would be cut; the tanks
would be filled with cheap crude from the
flush production OF summer and fall
drilling and the following spring the
price of crude would go up again, fore
ing smaller producers to live pecarious
existence.
That sort Of thing ended as larger re-
fineries were built and during the past
two or three years the crude price has
been steadier than ever before However,
the production for the first time exceeds
consumption to an extent that the build
ing OF another major refinery is now
Justified There are ample reserves in
present fields. and we all know that pros
pecting has barely begun in view OF the
positive proof OF production 900 feet be-
