Falling in, at Fort Custer, with a few old
Montanians-T. r. Purcell, b. Townsend,
and a son of Buckley, of Prickly Pear val
lev. James Newham, wife and two children,
bound tor Butte, five others, names I'M
known, three packers-homeward bound,
we left the big Horn OF the morning of the
18th, for the Yellowstone, taking an I'M
marked road across the country to Il newly
established ferry at Bakers battle ground, a
distance of about %forty-tivc miles. Here, be-
fore getting three hundred yards from the
ferry landing, we were bull-dozcd by a board
of county officers for the new county Of
Custer, in the person of Mr.. III. j. IIoppy,
who fills the offices of sheriff, assessor and
tax collector, and who levied and collected
property tax, and three dollars special poor
tax, under protest. The poor of that county
must be we'll provided for, or does the tax
go for the maintenance of the officers. Ii
this is legal, it must be right, if not, it Is
piracy IN a certain class.
There are supposed to be somewhere in
the neighborhood of five thousand pros
pectors IN the Big Horn mountains among
these are many M%ontanians, aud every coull-
ty has its representatives. | feel safe in say
ing that nine-tentbs Of these prospectors in
vested ak their available means in an outfit,
and many We're dependent Oh their friends.
Would it not hook better to allow these men,
returning Respondent and disappointed, to
pass on to their destination free from any
vexatious annoyances, such as are practiced
in Custer county, cinchiag them for the last
few dollars they had reserved. Living for
months. some. for years, on a n~on-yegetable
diet, they We're tlatterlng themselves on pur-
chasing II sayory mess of peas at the most
convenient ranch, aud, on their arrival at
Rozcman, a clean shirt, that they might
make a decent appearance before their
friends. But 10 officers OF this forlorn hope
of a county step in, and deprive the pros
pector of his peas and shirt, and think they
are playing a fine art trick on all the other
counties. One that's ''been there
RDZenaa. Aug. u. JACK Mccoy.
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1877-09-06

Our correspondent. Jack Mccoy, late of
the Big Horn region. makes Il very serious
charge against the officers, or a certain ofli-
Ger, of Custer county, whom he happened TO
come i'm contact with on his way home.
This officer, it seems, is guarding the cross
ing of the Yellowstone river, requiring all
who pass his way to pay a property and
poor tax. The party of which our cores
correspondent was one were citizens of Mon
tana, nave homes and property here, and
were on their return from an Inflated adven-
ture in the Black Hills, and the officers Of
Custer had no right, under the law, to de-
mand of them any tax whatever. The hve
thousand adventures in the Big Horn re-
pion cannot be considered residents of Custer
county. They are men who, disappointed
with the Black Hills, set out for Montana,
taking the safest and most direct route, and
prospecting for gold as they Travelled. They
have no abiding place III this wild, unsettled
region, nor have not had, but the few weeks
spent there have been one constant pilgrim
age. There is no law for taxing non-resi-
dents, and the demands Of the officers of the
new county are an outrage. The great cry
Of our people for the past few years has been
for immigration, and now that the tide is
turned In this direction, is this the reception
they are to meet with? Is it for this that
we have urged them to seek refuge in this,
our land of plenty? Many Of these people
have spent several years in the region of the
Hills, and have barely enough to reach the
settlements of Montana, and to meet them
upon our remote frontier and demand a
tribute for their entrance into our Territory
is certainly not in keeping with the noble
and generous spirit of our people.

Riley in his new book. But his investiga-

devouring the hopper, burrow into the
earth, but the question is not yet settled as
to when the ty issues from it. Prof. Riley
says: .'They issue, and burrow in the
ground, where. they contract to a brown,
cgg-like pupn, from which the fly issues,
either IN the same season or not until the
following spring" Mr.. j. l.. Nuuble, of
Bitter Root, who is aiding lis in the inyesti-
cation, writes, under date of August "a:

WE learn from good authority that Gen.
Sherman is very favorably impressed with
the geographical importance Of Camp Baker
as a permanent military post. The ADAM
donment of Fort Shaw is spoken of, which
we think would be unwise, but the import
ance of Baker cannot be over-estimated. 1t
is centrally located on our eastern line of
defense, and is Of great Importance to the
settlements of Meaghcr county, and now
that the seat of war has been transferred to
Eastern Montana, the necessity of charging
the garrison is redoubled. There is Il vast
amount of unprotected territory east of us,
and it is evident that the hostiles are making
for this wild, free domain, and, once there,
we may expect Il long siege of border troub-
les. So soon as the Indians reach the broad
plains where the squaw camp can be kept
out of danger from the troops, the warriors
will turn upon the settlements for booty.
