VIGILANTES OF MONTANA.
f12 FULL AND COMPLETE HISTORY OF
THE CHASE, CAPTURE, TRIAL AND EXEoU-
TlON OF ALL THE OUTLAWS WHO FIG .
F. ESQ" URED IN THE BLOODY DRAMA.

-tg r.7r.a... -.esF-z PREFACE. gl. faG E4-. ..H
The object Of the writer in presenting this
narrative to the public, is twofold. His
intention is, in the first place, to give cor
rect history of an organization administering
justice without the sanction of constitutional
law and secondly, to prove not only the
necessity for their action, but the equity OF
their proceedings. ga.r,,a s'atass .a .=i
Having an intimate acquaintance with
parties cognizant of the facts related, and
feeling certain of the literal truth of the
statements contained in this history, he
offers it to the people Of the United States
with the belief that its perusal will greatly
modify the views of those even who are
most preiudiced against the summary retri-
button of mountain law, and with the convic-
tion that all honest and impartial men will be
course pursued and the salutary effect of the
rule of the Vigilantes in the Territory Of
Montana. ..., .--f,. ".r-. .
1t is also hoped that the history of the
! celebrated body, the very mention of whose
of the murderers and Road Agents, will bt
edifying and instructive to the genera
reader. The incidents related are neither
trivial in themselves, nor unimportant IL
their results and, while rivalling fiction il
interest, are unvarnished accounts of trans
actions, whose fidelity can be vouched b,
thousands.
As literary production, the author com
mits it to the examination of the critica
without sigh. If any of these author
slayers are inclined to be more severe il
their judgment than he is himself, he trust
they will receive the reward to which thei
Justice entities them and if they shoul(
pass it by, he cannot but think that the.
] will exercise sound discretion, and avoi'
much useless labor. With all its imperfec
tions, here it is.

II should never be forgotten that the
Southern Stasas, by the abolition of slavery,
obtain a great increase of political power
over what they enjoyed prior to the rebel
lion.. Hon. John Sherman, who has exam
ined the matter, says they will gain fourteen

electoral votes. This comes from counting

ness of that region 90 Our hills, never actually
green, now decidedly brown. This deracts
little from the beauty of our landscape" To
which the San Francisco CaU replies 80 Just
think of it detracting from the beauty of a
Washoe landscape. Has the lean sage-hen
sickened? Or does the lizard lie torpid in his
hole? Is the voice of the coyote, the Washoe
nightingale no longer heard among the hills
And can the inhabitants Of Tadmor survive all
this? Truly the melancholy days are upon them,
when anything is detracted from the beauty of
their landscape. The moss on the stone is with
cred, and the sage-brush and greasewood no
longer fill the air with their sweet perfumes.
Carson river is dried up; the rum mills do a
sluggish business the groaning team winds
slowly er the lea and the beauty of the land
scape has deteriorated.
Better dwell in the midst of alarms
