II TOLD YOU So"

The editor of the Times seems to gloa
lover the fact that the Indians have up
|peared in our vicinity and killed severa
men and run off . large number of stock
because, forsooth, he predicted that thcl
would do 20 some two months ago, wher
there was less cause to anticipate raie
from the Indians this summer than form
erly. Even the little ''Extras" emsnating
from the Times Office close with thu
ominous sentence, "Itold you co." Almos,
every summer since vs. have been in the
Territory, small raiding parties have ap
peared in our valley, on stealing expedi.
tons, and on one or more occasions have
committed murder, and there il nothing
strange in the fact that they
should make their annual visit this season,
except tia. their depredations are of q
more formidable character, and they seem
to be more on the kill than on any former
occasion. Acting on the principle that
sufficient unto theday is the evil thereof"
we chided our neighbor for creating pre-
mature alarm, and now that the evil has
come, which we were led to believe We
would escape this season, on account of
The Black Hills excitement, the Times
seems to be jub.lant because its prediction,
based on nothing but desire to create 81
s3nsation, has been verified.

THE GRASSHOPPERS.

The grasshopper raid has caused q slight
advance in produce at Helena. Their raw.
ages in the Prickly Pear valley seem to
have been greater than in Gallatin valley.
to judge from the reports Of our Helena
exchanged Information from Willow
creek is to the effect that their depredatlons
on the crops there were of very serious
character. Wednesday there were none to
be seen about Bozeman, and up to this
time no fresh ones haYe appeared. The
farmers on the West Gallatln river, Mid
die and Elk Grove creeks, 20 far As we can
ascertain, have been the greatest sufferer
lin this county.
From the Helena Herald of the 18th, We
copy the following:
To day. from morning until night, the
heavens have been full of grasshoppers,
looming from the East and going West.
In the city, and it's immediate vicinity
they have almost all left, and fOyorabl,
reports from the valley were sanguincly

men came to town. About noon MI. Por

apparently thicker than ever, and the de
struction of crops continuing withou
abatement.
Reports from several Of the foot-hil
ranches indicate Z decreasing number thi
forenoon, although yesterday afternoon
they were thicker and more DESTRUCTIVE
than on the previous days.
