SAOA0A / AL006 00111Ss
The Times s'harkers'' for notice by
the COURIER. Has been laundering eince
the advent of the presen: management
AS lack of such notice will evidently
cause it to choke from disappointment,
we give below . few gems from ita
last issue:
"rhe Indian Ring organ of Bozeman
will be champion" of the Governor.
Chats meant for the OouR1KR.)
1.-The Ring organ up the street, true to
Its Instincts Chats meant for the
CouRIER.)
1.-THE boot Ticker of Bozeman will, NO
doubt be Jealous in the Governors cause
CHATS meant for the COURIER, or Alder
son, or Bogert.)
IAN lgnoranus dressed in little brief
Authority often comes to grief" (rhat's
meant for the Governor.)
"A hired scribbler of Corrupt clique"
CHATS meant for Bogcrt.)
The readers of the COURIER will bear
testimony thai, SO far, we have not only
avoided conflict with the Times, but have
Jas we'll restrained ourself when outrage
ously attacked by It. We desire to pub,
lIsL, not personal. but a public organ,
ard do not wish to fill our columns with
abuse of anyone or replies to the acrimo-
ny, spleen and jealousy of the Times.
While its reiterated charges of ''ring
influences" do not bother US, We challenge
production OF anything from our columns
IN evidence of such charges. We submit
it to the people of Eastern Montana that
they owe it to US and themselves to dis
countenance the disgusting emanations OF
concern, which evidently thinks it ap
pcals to their symI,athies by unsustained
abuse Of the COURIER and incendiary
utterances against the Government. This
seems 10 be Its stock IN trade. If 1t have
any personal grievances, it is informed
that We feel able to protect vurself out
side the columns of this paper.

No wood can be cut within three

AS the present contract is not wholly

Hay ground has been and will be
scarce, scattered, and far off.
Transportation is and may continue
inadequate.
The location of the new Post is not
yet selected, but will be beyond the pres

result in stumpage charges upon all wood

The New Posts .

1t. Colonel q. P. Buell., 18th Infantry,
has been ordered to report for temporary
duty in connection with the construction
of the Big Horn Post.
The Pioneer-Press has the appended
data regarding the transportation, ETC.,
connected with the building of the two
new Posts: ''There are sixteen millions
of pounds of freight to be carried, as es-
timated by the War Department. This IS
equivalent to 100, 900 one hundred pound
packages. which at sixty cehts per pack
age for the four hundred miles from Bis
marck to For! Buford Tor fifteen cents
per hundred pounds per hundred miles)
makes a transportation bill on the Mis-
souli of 500, 1000. Now, the averag' dis
lance en- the Yellowstone and Big Horn
Rivers cannot be definitely stated, bee use
the exact location of the posts has not yet
been decided. but it will not vIry far from
three hundred miles. The transportation
rate per hundred pounds for this whole
distance (if the figure is not too hlgh)
would be S1.94i, or total of about $780,
600, which, with the Missouri River bill,
makes about four hundred thousand dol
lars worth of transportation connected
with the work.
Both posts will he constructed Of hewn
logs. matched, and lined with paper
board. Six hundred carpenters have
been engag' at st. Paul, ETC.. and are
probably now at Bismarrk--the intention
being to use them first at Tongue River.

The following is verbatim copy Of the

D. Townsend, 10 Attorney General Charles

Its alleged disclosures and implications and
Of its pretended restitutions, the release
Of the great malefactor was solicited.
The statement was in the precise
form in which it is now first given to the
public through the HrnALD's columns. not
being made under oath and containing M
signature. The Attorney General was
pledged to examine the document and n
decide on his official responsibility whether

court of law could bring to Justice
guilty parties who had hitherto escaped
exposure and punishment for their
yhase in the robberies and other criminal
practices Of the old Tammany Ring, or
whether by the recovery Of large portion
Of the city's stolen money, or in any other
manner through the instrumentality of the
confession, he would be justified in releas-
ing Mr.. Tweed from Jail. If he agreed to
set the prisoner FREQ he was to be at liberty
to use the information thus placed in his

Our consul general in London, who

Cannot the new civil-service order be
made to apply to such cases as this OF
Badeau?"
The New York Erening Post is as turdy
defender of single standard of mouey, J.,

is deprecated and uncertain will serve
as standard. Silver is deprecated and

serve" This is sound to the core.

Civil service reform seems to be at a

by publicly posting them as guilty of dis

Hubbard's cupboard. When he took
command he found himself legatee to
ten thousand dollars or SO of old hts,
and as election expenses have Increased
and election revenues dimi nished, its as
simple as simple addition to account for
a bankrupt treasury. But, by what right
congressman and tipstaves are posted in
drinking houses az delinquents, is a
question that Secretary Schurz should be
called upon to elucidate. Field Marshal

CHINAMEN MURDERED IN COLD

WALLA WALLA, July 13.-On the
10th instant Joseph and his band surpris-
ed party Of thirty-one Cinnamon who
were coming down the Clear Water in
cano es, and for mere pastlme and recre-
alton inhumanly killed The whole except
one, who managed to elude them and es-
cape. These are the first Cinnamon who
have been molested by Indians of late,
and many of them are heightened out
Of their sences and are leaving for the
upper country. In a letter dated July II
Leland, of Lewiston, says the enemy's
operations have been about seventy-fye
or one hundred miles in the re of Cen
eral Howard's movements; that the man.
9uVres of the latter are eAtirely too slow
and that Joseph is smart enough to take
advantage Of them and flank him all the
time. The general impression here is that
the one hundred FlaLhead Indians that
General Howard had reports of as going
TO join Joseph's were Kamai reservation
Indians. The Indian Government OF
Montana says that the Flatheads are
going east Oh their annual buffalo hunt
towards the Yellowstone, instead of com
