THE HELENA DAILY INDEP.ENDENX Sunday, December 10, 1920 PRODIGAL POOH Taking Over of G. N. Pipclinfe Is liailed With Joy by Qilmen OF DETROIT TEH in sin is km asm, iim still unit THROUGH A SENATORS EYE. After a few hour' iliji In Geneva, Senator Medill McCormick's worst opinion of the league of nation i confirmed. It cannot endure.

It "will be amothered by the eloquence of it member, and a grtal deal loo much time ia loit in iiclet verbiage." lat hint never fear that the reputation of the United State aen-ate, of which the lllinoia talesmen ia a ahining ornament, is in the least danger of being eclipsed at Geneva or anywhert else. Its phtce as the most irresponsible debating body in the world is secure, and no possible competitor can hope to rob it of that diatinc-ticn Senator come and senator go, but the United State enate never change. The flow of elo-ouence of it member neither hull' nor tlackent, and with all the time lost in useless verbiage they jealously guard the right to prin' speeches never delivered, a privilege of which the league it still too backward to recognise the advantage.

19. Socialist newspaper and communist agitator are making much of the misery resulting from unemployment, high cost of necessities and the winter, and are contrasting the condition of the poor with the prodigal spending of the profiteers. 1 here i perhaps less extravagance than there was before the war, but the number of idle and very poor is said to be greater, and emphasizes present conditions. Workers for the "red revolution" witlwthe slogan of "poverty and profiteer." the ammunition they most frequently employ, are urging the overthrow of the government and the establishment of a distatorship of the proletariat to relieve the conditions they call intolerable As the misery of the workless increases with the advancing winter they expect to gam enough strength to make an effort to overturn the present regime, wh.cli they blame for the troubled economic conditions Die Frciheit, organ of the independent social democrat- party, issues and "earnest warning" to the government that conditions are coming to a head and that it will be ill for the administration if some tangible effort i not made to relieve idleness, ft adds: "It is time for the capitalistic regime to take heed. The proletariat has not lost its strength; it is growing stronger against that time when the hour of decision shall strike.

GOOD FORM IN FANATICISM Unless the Sunday blue-law vavi-valists can find something in the anti-trust act that applies to the situation, we do not sec how they are to overcome the opposition of the anti-saloon league. This sovereign combination seems to be a monopoly. Asserting priority and immunity from competition for itself, it advises all other uplifters not to go too fast lest the whole movement be brought to disaster.

What a sad thing it would be if the Sabbatarians in their mistaken zeal were to stip up a revolt against fanaticism of every kind and 0 wreck the notable achievement of prohibition! Under the dry law as now interpreted and administered federal officers and their affiliated sleuths are not going very fast or very far, we suppose. All that they do is lo forhid their fellow'-citizens manufacture, transport, buy, sell drink certain beverages to regulate the sacramental use of wine; to supervise cookery; to overrule the professional judgment of physicians; to deprive the sick of many standard remedies; to interfere with science and art: to chill social relations al home and abroad; to make lawbreakers out of millions of people and to persuade others to become snoops nad sneaks. Let us hope that the Lords Day league will check its mad career before it is everlastingly too late. We must have conservatism in these matters. The one sure way for the Blues to deprive American of what is left of their liberties is to accept instruction from the prohibition lobby at Washington, which is never in a hurry but always inching along.

18 The announce mrut of the taking over of the Great Northern Pipe Line company by the Colgrove interest, known ai the Montana Independent Pipe Line yn-dicatc, wa hailed by the oil nten at giving them ull assurance that next spring would tee the completion of pipe lines sufficient to take care of the entire production from the Cat Creek area. The Colgrove people have alreay invested a big turn of money in pipe and other material, and material it already on the way. While weather condition may have something to do with the progress of construction. once it i under way the parties interested announce that it will he pushed most vigorously. With five new well about to be spudded in and two more in prospect within the next few weeks and with several wrlli rapidly approaching lonipletioii, the need for the new pipe line is apparent.

It is believed that if all the wells now producing wrre ileared right to the sand and all caved and made to produce their capacity, under such favorable conditions the total output would run not far from 17.000 barrels. With the holes under way and others certain to he started very oon, the production by, spring is going to be very large. That much is cvertain. But the fact that wells are brought in will bring immediate prosperity to this section unless the oil ran be immediately transformed into coin and the pipe line is the only method of accomplishing this. Now Big Lehman Has Lost Tools When in Sight of Pay Sand Lewistown.

Dec. 18. "Can you heat it for hard luck?" said Big Lehman when he returned from the oil field last evening. Just when we were getting ready to drill into the pay. we dropped our string of tools.

After getting "through the cavein formation and with a clear field ahead of the goal the bloomin' tools had to ij to the bottom. isn't quite the same word that Big" used.) Lehman is now scouring the state for a fishing which will take hold of the lost pieces. Even if he fails to locate the tools, he lias a chance to go on past them, for they are below the pipe. The bit was down 1,200 feet when the tools were lost and five hours of good, steady drilling would in all probability have hit the oil sand. "It takes more than the losing of tools to discourage you when you are on the trail of the grease," said Big." ITALIAN AMBASSADOR IS A GREAT LAWYER Genoa, Dec.
