money through loans from financiers
IN Europe. Representatives OF those
financiers were at this meeting. he
said, and added that 1t was his be-
lief that they would see how the money
they had invested would bring big re-
turns.
The rest Of his speech was mainly a
glortfication of the country through
which the Northern Pacific ran. He
predicted an influx of settlers now
that an easy means OF entrance had
been achieved, and drew the picture of
day when what was now wild and
unsettled country would become a land
OF farmsteads and prosperous people.
This country will be as great as any
other part of the United States, no
matter what they say about it," he
finished. and there was a tremendous
burst Of applause.
He was followed by a professor from
one OF the famous universities in Ger
many, who spoke well of the project
and the land grants so generously
given by the government.
The German professor was followed
by Frederick Billings, an ex-president
OF the company. who spoke OF the hard
times and other untoward circum-
stances on account Of which he had
failed to accomplish much He visual
lied bright future, and predicted the
greatness OF the country through which
the railroad ran.

Simon Kermper, Butte Pioneer
Observes His 85th Birthday

Simon v. Kemper, resident of Butte
since 1877 and one of its most respected
citizens, recently observed his 85th
birthday
Kemper was born at st. Joseph, Mo-,
OF good old American stock. His pa
ternal ancestors came to this country
from Germany. settling in Virginia,
where they became planters and took
an active part in public affairs. Several
Of them fought in the war of the Revo-
luton and one later became governor
His maternal ancestors were OF Scotch
blood
Kemper has been identified with
Butte progress since the beginning. He
was always builder-industriouS and
thrifty: patriotic in times of public
need. He was one of the organizers
tl89D Of the State Savings bank, and
for many years past has been a di-
rector OF the Miners National bank. He
also owns and manages the Butte Land
& Investment Co.
In 1880 Kemper married Miss Sallie
B. Shields of Highland, Kan. -Four
children-two sons and two daughters
were born to the union.

remembrance of his birthday, Kemper

Great Lakes
:" This he said. is the Golden Spike!
We will proceed to drive it here to
commemorate the extension of the
Northern Pacific from the Great Lakes
to the Pacific coast-the union of the
east with the west!'
-. There was mad scramble to hit
the spike lick Miss Willard, Wizards
daughter who was present, General
Grant. and others tried. Rod Leggatt,
one of the Butte delegation. had
hammer in his hand all the time and
was hitting the spikes as they were

Grant drive it,! he cried. but no one
will ever know who drove the Golden
Spike: The engines Missed. and all was
over"
The Northern Pacific was first across
Montana, but with such potential riches
as the country seemed to possess, other
railroad building companies were soon
at work. In 1886 James j. Hill began
building roadbed and bridges from Mi

one at each car, drew the rails into

and closer until at last the gap was
closed and transcontinental railroad

It is said that the driving of the last
spike was recorded by telegraph to

thusiasm there. George A Bruffey, in
the history Of his years in the west,

templates requires unusual fitness, the

turned to his ranch to recuperate from

Next, General Grant spoke. He was
given a tremendous ovation, for he was
very popular with the miners, who
comprised most of the 1000 persons
present.
He commended the work, and said,
You fellows talk of who built the
Northern Pacific railroad. I say it was
these hardy, miners represented here
years. they have been developing the
mines, sending millions to the east,
proving to the world the hidden wealth
OF this country. 1t is already a land of
plenty, with many comforts and every
necessity. The time will come when It
VIII have every luxury, and that time
will not be far distant"
It was now time to close the gap
