CA IClAlNADA-MExIco HIGHWAY

Measured by every standard of fairness and common
sense the CanadaA[exico highway meeting at Lander
last week was distinct failure. Whatever accomplish
ents there surely were not in the interests of Mon
tana
Delegates from Montana representing the state as
socaton were victims of deception far the purpose
of the meeting concerned.
The Montana state association was clearly informed
that the right to designate the route Montana was
to be left to Its mcmbers perogave which they exercs
ed at Welattende state meeting at LeWistoWn May
st real live association to work for speedy completion
of the highway was formed and dues fixed at two
cents per person from each memberown of the state
ganlzaon one half Of this to stay in the state body
the other half to be used by the national association
When the secretary-treasurer accordingly sent out
notices of such assessment to membertowns Billings and
Laurel refused to comply with their contribution to the
state association but sent their cent per capita levy
to the national oganzatonthus openly Haunting the
majority decision Of their fellow cities.
The state association executive committee in a meet
ing called at Red Lodge, June 3rd instructed the Mon
tana delegation to refuse any community vote in the
association who failed refused to pay both state and
national dues. In keeping with this decision the Mon
tana delegation at Lander informed Billings would
be allowed vote because her delegates had not turned
over state dues.
Later in the meeting, however, the deception began
to creep out Mr. Del Monte national president of the
association at the tme informed the Treasure State dele
gates that Billings and Laurel both would be allowed to
vote and that the convention would pass the routing
through Montana and that each of the five states inter
ested would have vote and that Billings and Laurel
would direct the state vice president how to cast Mon
ana's ballot. Furthermore it announced that New
Mexico and Arizona would be represented by proxy there
being no delegates present from those states.
On demanding to be shown authority for such pro-
'edure, Monanas delegates informed that the by
of the national organization had been stolen two
years before The delegation asked to see the minutes
If the previous meeting and given the vague answer
hat the minutes were not available.
Incensed by such tactics the Montana delegates held
meeting and decided to withdraw from the conventon
20 advising Mr. Del Monte. It was decided by the Mon
delegation to return to their home state and ask
State President DIR. D. S. Mackenzie to call state meet
in the future to recommend to the state assoca
ion that we perfect North-South highway along the
nly logical route-that argreed upon at the Lewstown
Meeting.

COLUMBUS IS RENAMED BY
CITY COUNCILMEN TUESDAY

Against strong and repeated
protests of Red Lodges mayor,
DR.. u G. r. Siegfriedt, who wanted
another man appointed, the city
council in session here Tuesday
night passed resolutions naming
d. w. Columbus water tax collec-
tor and city electrician for a one
year terms ;..
The first part of the meeting
was a hectic one, with DR.. Sieg-
friedt, backed only by one Of the
six councilmen, insisting ON the ap-
pointment of M. w. Buening.
For the third successive meeting
Siegfriedt's appointment of Buen>
ing was turned down by five OF
the councilmen. The mayor de-
clared an emergency existed and
appointed Buening for a period of
80 days, serving notice he would
repeat this appointment until the
council confirmed.
Councilman Ray Houton appeal
ed the decision, turning down the
appointment by a council vote OF
five to one, then Offered resolu-
tions naming Columbus. These re-
solutions were confirmed by a five
to one vote.
The air fairly bristled in the
councilroom as the mayor and OPP
posing councilmen went through
their legal Maneuvers. There
was considerable thumbing of Ro-
berts Rules of Order before the
right to appeal the mayors de-
cisions was confirmed by John G.
Skinner, city attorney.
Voting consistently against the
mayor in his appointments and in
his disapproval of certain bills
were aldermen Victor Aho, Har-
ley Weydt, Gus Foltz, Ray Houton
and Mike Dimich. w. j. Barrett
lined up solidly with Siegfriedt on
these propositions.
The arguments reached a climax
at one point when o. II. p. Shelley,
Red Lodge publisher, one of those
attending the meeting, arose to be
heard, only. to be told by Sieg-
friedt; who got up from his presid-
ing chair, that he had no right
to speak. Shelley insisted on his
right as a citizen and taxpayer,
however, and he said what he had
to say. Shelley took Siegfriedt
to task for the m amer
in which the meeting was con-

Dead Man Eating
Hearty, cart Sheriff
Says of CebuiIa

Carbon county's famous "dead
man." John Cebuila, is lodged in
the county jail here, thus settling
one of the most puzzling mysteries
to hit this community in many a
day.
Innocent key to the solution was
Cebuila's suitcase which the Mon
tana laborer left here in his hur-
ried hitch-hiking flight from Red
Lodge after a fight with Bob Nick
ovich, Jardine, on May 9Th.
After a months intensive inves-
tigation in response to hundreds
of rumors that Cebuila was killed
in the fight, Carbon's law enforce
ment officials located CebuiIa
working at a sawmill in the Bull
mountains in Musselshell county,
the missing man being unaware
that he was the sought for "dead
'un."
Arraigned on a charge of third
degree assault. Thursday Cebuila
pleaded guilty and was sentenced
to 80 days in Jail by Justice Of
the Peace John Sanderson. !. .
The 28-year-old Cebuila was To-
Gated through his suitcase which
he sent for. Undersheriff Bill
Moore was at Billings when the
mans employer called for
the suitcase.
Despite a newspaper and radio
campaign, Cebuila was unaware of
the search.
"Out in this country there are
no newspapers-no radios," he
said.
Cebuila stated that on May 9Th
Nickovich and himself motored to
Red Lodges rodeo grounds to
have it out" over some disagree
ment. A few blows were ex-
changed, Cebuila said, and then he
started walking along the highway
to Roberts, Nickovich driving off
N the car.
At Roberts he got a ride with
/ salesman as far Laurel. At
Laurel he hailed truck and asked
he driver where he could get
lob. Told that he needed a man,
5ebuila started work the next day,
lad been employed a month in the
'awnill before apprehended by
Moore.
The arrest exonerates Bob Nick
'vich of murder charges in con-
lection with the case, and also
lissipates the strong feeling of
loubt expressed by a large number
# citizens that Cebuila was alive.
"He eats as if he's living"
ighed Sheriff Jack McFate with
elief.
Gle was alive when I got him."
Undersheriff Moore.
"He'd better he alive" growled
county Attorney E. P. Conwell,

Carbon County news., 1937-06-11

Quoted and suggested to the mayor
that the meeting could be speeded
up by observance of the simple
rules of order. During this verbal
duel the meeting turned into dis
order which was soon dispelled and
the gathering took on a jocular
note; the mayor and councilmen
handing bandinage back and forth.
The remainder of the meeting
was comparatively tame.
1t was decided to change street
cluster lights from so to rs watts
and to change the single upper
lights from so to 100 watts. The
body recommended painting light
posts and fire hydrants.
Maurice johnson, local WPA-
NYA recreational director, asked
the council to purchase land on
which is situated Red Lodges
outdoor theatre. The matter was
referred to the park committee
with full power to act.
