ton, in obedience to the command Of
his superiors, presumably snugly
housed in Washington, D. c., was
compelled not only to endure an arctic
temperature, but to pass through a
region infested with hostile red men.
Another just cause for complaint on
the part of the Indian fighters was,
that in an engagement, whether vic
tors or defeated, they were blamed.
If they charged an Indian village, kill
ing women and possibly children, as
in the battle of the Big Hole, cry
of horror was heard from the east.
At that time in civilized warfare-f
there can be such thing-women
were treated as non-combatantS. On
the other hand a foray into an In
dian village exposed the soldiers to
the shots from the women as well
as from the men, and the soldiers
shot the women in self-defense.
If a battle was lost the officers
were charged with incompetency, and
possibly ran the risk of being court
martialed. Many can now recall how
General Howard was ridiculed for not
earlier checking the Nez Perces In
their flight. There was no understand
ing at headquarters, or generally
throughout the east, of the almost In
surmountable obstacles he was ex-
pected to overcome. The army Of the
plains might have been excused, If
they, like Hans in the fairy story,
thought Ito do better, do nothing"

U. S. SUSPENDS
STATES FEEDER
ROAD" PROGRAM
MUST HALT UNTIL AFTER PRES
ENT EMERGENCY, HIGHWAY
COMMISSION INFORMED

Montana's secondary or feeder"
road program must be suspended until
after the war emergency. and military
demands in other areas may delay all
highway construction in the state for
the present, the state highway COM
mission said after a conference with
federal officials
A F. Winkler of Kalispell, commits
sion chairman, said the commission
would select various types Of test
projects to be submitted to the war
department in an endeavor to obtain
certification.' He said no projects as
yet have been definitely determined.
"As Montana is not in an immedi-
ate defense area" he said, "the COM
mission may find it problem to have
projects certified at the present time,
and we have been positively told that
it will be impossible to have certified
any feeder or secondary programs"
Federal officials who met with the
board were H. w. Lynch, district engi-
neer with the federal bureau Of public
roads at Portland, Ore, and Luce
Martin, public roads bureau admins
tration engineer at Missoula.
Winkler also said the commission
had been notified that all highway
funds have been frozen" in Washing
ton, D. c., pending outcome Of the
war emergency, but that they will be
available for Montana construction
later. He added that the highway de-
partment organization will be kept in
tact for the duration and that engi-
neering work, surveys and preparation
for construction will be continued in
anticipation of postwar work.
He warned that federal regulations
might at any time change the entire
construction program for the coming
year.

STATE WOOLMEN
CHOOSE BILLINGS
FOR CONVENTION
GILBERT PROPOSES GOVERNMENT
TAKE OVER WOOL CLIP
FOR DURATION

The 1943 convention of the Montana
Woolgrowers association will be held
at Billings and the association will
join with that city in inviting next
years sessions of the National Wool
growers association to Billings at the
same time.
At the state convention recently held
at Missoula, w. G. Gilbert of Dillon,
president. proposed that the govern
ment take over the nations wool clip
for the duration of the war and for
a year after it ends The added year
would give the industry a chance to
adjust itself, Gilbert said
Trustees whose terms on the board
expired this year-W A. Denecke.
Bozeman; John Etchart, Tampico, and
Gilbert, were reelected unanimously
Holdover members are J. D. Foster,
Harlowton: Wallace Kingsbury Waller;
Fred Mannix, Gold Creek; Howard
Morse. Dillon; Wallace Ulmer, Miles
City. and Ernest White, Kalispell.
The association recommended to the
national and state governments that
all mon defense" expenditures be sus-
pended for the duration of the war
emergency.
Other resolutions adopted called for:
All possible reductions in budgets of
the state, counties. cities and school
districts
Priorities for manufacture of wool
bags, sewing twine and other commod-
tiles without which it is impossible
to produce WOOL as wool is defense
commodity.
Prevention of importation of live
stock or livestock products from coun-
tries where hoof and mouth disease
prevails.
Deferment from selective service Of
key" men in the wool industry.
Endorsement of actions of the Ma
tional Woolgrowers association and the
Montana railroad and public service
commission in asking the I. c. c. to
reduce discriminatory rates on wool"

METAL INNINGS
VALUE IN STATE
GAINS 3 PERCENT
GOLD, SILVER, COPPER, LEAD AND
ZINC YIELDED LAST YEAR
WORTH s57,433.7OO

Annual figures for metal mining in
Montana in 1891 show that the value
of such production was percent above
that for 1910.
Bureau of mines figures show that
gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc
yielded last year by Montana ores and
gravels were worth s57 433, 700. In 1910,
the figure was s55, ,433, 700.
Actual output of gold, silver and
lead was less than the year before:
that of copper and zinc was more.
Value OF lead output was up because
of higher average price.
Figures based on 10 months actual
mine production in l94l, with Novem-
Der and December calculated from re-
ports by mine operators, refineries in
cluding government mints. and smelt-
ers, were as follows:
Gold. 246,500 fine ounces. as COM
pared with 2726O2 ounces in 1910, value
S8,627,500 as compared with s9,54l ,070
in 1910: silver, II 3O4OOO fine ounces,
l2,36l, $50 ounces in 1910, value sS,-
100 080 in 1910.
Copper, 255,OOO,OOo million pounds,
252 1882 900 in 1910, value S29. 1886 900,
and S28 8564 1866 in 1910; lead, 43.50O.OO
pounds, 46O72 900 in 1910, value 81
100000 and S2.303, 600 in 1910: zinc,
Ill 100000 pounds, los, 900 in 1870,
value S8.496, 800. and s6,625, ,962 in 1910.
The l941 drop in gold output, about
10 percent, was due, the report stated,
to decrease in lode mines output from
208,455 ounces in 1910 to about 1872 500
ounces in 1871; the output from placers
last year, amounting to 64,147 ounces
was virtually the same as in 1910.
Montana,s recoverable silver output
in l94l was about 9 percent less than
in 1910, most of the decrease resulting
, from suspension in April, 1941, of op-
erations at the Comet-Gray Eagle
group near Basin by the Basin Mon
crease in old tailings shipments from
the Hecla dump near Melrose.
Mines near Butte produced nearly
79 percent of the total output-about
$500 900 ounces compared with 8,752,-
7O8 in 194O Large outputs also oc-

Copper Mining Co. mine in the Hog
Heaven district; Big Seven. Florence
and Klies mines in the Neihart dis
trict; Granite Bimetallic property in
the Philipsburg district, and West
Mayflower in the Renova district.
Recoverable copper output for the
year was l percent above 1910. but Il
less than the 2ss ,O56 0oo-pound figure
in 1887.
Montanas 1941 zinc plant output was
! the largest since 1929, and a percent
increase over 1910. In the Butte dis
trict the production went up from II, ;.
10000 pounds in 1910 to about 72,-
100000 pounds in ls4l, equalling s.
percent of the state output.

At this critical time, from desire
to economize. General Darlington was

invaluable services. But to this the
general would not consent and con-

When the powerful Indian tribes of
the northwest foTgetful of inter-racial
feuds were uniting for a final stand
against the whites. and there were al
most daily hostile demonstrations IN
the neighborhood of Fort Phil Kearney,
the first fort built by Darlington;
when a guard had to be sent out with
the men sent out to get wood, and
when even this precautionary measure
could not prevent some of them be-
ing killed: when the enemy came close
enough to the stockade to shoot
sentry; the eastern journals were
maintaining that a state of peace pre-
vailed on the plains. and the govern
ment was apparently of the same
opinion.
The Fetterman disaster arose from
an attack being made on men sent
out for wood, and ended as it did. be-
cause the orders of the commanding
officer were not obeyed. Fetterman,
whose failure in duty cost him his
life, and the lives of his followers. was
counted a hero, and his superior Of
ficer was censored.
General Darlington received tardy
exoneration. He was ordered to Fort
Casper, and made the journey in the
month of January. With him and the
other officers went their wives. The
cold was intense. and many of the
soldiers were severely frozen, result
ing in amputations, and even death.
It is incredible, if the government had
been correctly informed concerning
climatic conditions in Wyoming, that
such transfer of troops would have
been made in mid-winter.

items of equipment and material so
as to make such equipment and ma
terial available for the military forces
of the nation.
Generally everyone is after all that
he can get for himself, his organiza-

of insuring speedy victory.
will you please pass this on, not
