bless your life, Mr.. Record, the detachment
of the Sd Infantry. which wintered at Camp
Baker, had been in Helena days before the
raid occurred.
'Peaceably disposed Indians, "'cowardIy
herders!" If numbering our citizens and
%plundering their homes is a peaceable in,li-
nation, then indeed were the party in qnes-
ton of'this kind; and if pursuing and kill
ing Indians guilty Of pillage. nd'murder,
and preventing their escape with their
booty, be cowardly, then, may thespeople of
Smith river plead guilty to the charge.
"Parties from the scene of reported hostil-
tiles" informed the Record mar that "there
was no foundation for alarm except the fact
that a few Indians appeared upon the valley
without,an hostile intentions" Emphati-
cally, we don't believe it. Who were these
parties, and where do they live? Certainly
there is not a man in Meagher county but,
knows that several ranches were plundered
by these Indians, and that is not confident
that the missing shepherd, Murphy, was
murdered by them.
If the Record is exercised because. the
herdsmen of Smith river, assisted by Capt.
Clifford, killed some. of his. kindred, he ,had
better keep them under the paternM. wig

good tilable land was not less than 2Oo. To-
day it is teaming with a thrifty, industrious,
prosperous, wealthy and populous people,
from which u respectable audience can De
summoned vet. after al, scarcely a fifth OF
the agricultural land is occupied, leaving
plepty of room for many .moret to come ana
make happy homes and live by tilling the
fertile soil. Grow creek valley Is one upon
which some of the first settlers OF central
Montana. located. 1t is nearly a round val
lev. and it's extent Of agricultural land es-
innate at about 40 square miles. About
1000 acres of this is owned and fenced, LOCO
of which is sown in grain this year, the re-
mainder being choice hay lands, uppn'which
many hundred tons of natural hay. is grown
and reaped yearly. The soil ofsthe valley is
deep and rich, and produces as good crops
as is to.be raised in any country. Crow
creek, which courses through its center,
supplies an abundance of water tor the land
now in civilizations The valley is an excel
lent place for a colony settlement. The wa
tiers of Boulder creek could be easily brought
on to and made to supply many thousand
acres of valuable but vacant lanes. In esti-
mating the extent of the valleys | nave not
included the large country ot rolling bench
lands that surround the valley and which
are covered with gro wing bunch grasses.
There are but three or four bands of sheep
upon this valley, the total number of which
is about Ii, 900. This does not include the
spring crop OF lambs which are set down by
those we'll posted at about 1000. The
principalsowners of these sheep are Z. B.
Clarke, Hugh Galen and - Ross. Galen's
flock is in charge Of A. j. Smith q Bro,
who have them on shares for a three years
term. They,are experienced hands and are
doing we'll. Most OF the other farmers are
numbering from 100 to 800 head. OF the
prominent farmers whose names are, not
given above, are A. MaComber, w. l..
Copeland, j. w. Tinsley, Ed. Kempton, j.
D. jenkins, B. Tounsley, d. j. Bedford. and
H. F. Shull. At Radersburg, the County
Seat of Jefferson county, which Is situated
at the head OF the valley, l met a number OF
acquaintances, OF whom | remember j. M.

The town has but one store, one hotel, lone
blacksmith shop, one butcher shop, one
feed stable and a postofice. l did not con-
slider the town very prosperous, still there
may be enterprising people here. The tele,
graph line passes near by, but the want of
wire and a little enterprise to put up, poles
upon which to hang it, has doubtless caused
the several years delay in learning what is
going on in other pats of the world.

TRIP TO GROW E

Striking the east. shore OF Jefferson coun-
ty my first place.to visit was the Spring.
vile Touring mill. This mill, under the
management of Gavin Johnston, the Jesse,
has been a good success, his conduct
throughout having given general ~satistac-
tion~ Besides being a good miller he has
won the esteem of the large farming COM
munity among whom he is located. In adj
dition to the milling business he has a well
supplied store, with the genial Luther
Briggs as salesman, from which a large
share of the groceries used in this. neighbor-
hood is purchased.
Since the opening OF the hotel here by B..
Austin the place has received the, name of
Bedford, and is from allssappearances, des-
tined to be a very important rural town.
Arrangements are being pefected for the. es-
t~ablishment of apostotfice here,. with Mr..
Johnston as postmaster. The daily mail to
and from Bozeman will pass Bedford. Mr..
Anstin's hotel is designed to, be the dinner
station. and a better house for the weary
traveller to rest and.peceivea good meal l
have not seen. The proprietor is a farmer
and has a crop growing near by, from
which his table is to- be supplied.
/ From Bedford l went. to Crow creek,
'making,but one call On the way, which was
at the home of my friend Mike Mahon, who
is located near the river.r Mr.. NJ. is a stock
man, devoting his time mainly to the rails
ing of horses, a business in which he is we'll
posted and has a well suited location there
for. l am glad to not that his pleasant
home has received an improved change
since my visit last years and that Mrs. Nj. in
reality does~preside, giving a sunshine well
come to the one torlorn bachelor abode.
Passing over the divide my attention was
ward. The crest OF the long line of the
Belt mountains 20 miles, distant was covered
with snow. Just below the snow line a
long stretch of clouds skirting the country
for several milesJwas sending down refresh
ing showers, against which shown the
bright,sun lightin beautiful rainbow colors.
Below the waving streams of fallen rain and
gorgeous rainbow hues stretched out the
Missouri valley, clad. in its rich summer
mantle, and, dotted over with the homes of
an industrious people. AS my eyes glanced
at the spot Of the first house my thoughts
wandered back to the time when but touy
other cabins besides my own, graced the
vast valley plain. How great the progress
and Improvement! How grand the change
of a dozen years! CHANGING over the vast
country my view, extending from. the river
canyon 10 miles above to the great noun
tain gap intoswhich the Missouri flows 40 or
90 miles to tile north, my thoughts wander
eel into the future seeking to picture the
progress of the next twelve years. The au-
dlence compared with the days OF 1865, was
indeed respectable, Butpossibly I am over
drawing; let's figure. Twelve years ago
the population of this beautiful valley was
but 2 bakers dozen, and its square miles of

The HusBANDMAN made a desperate effort
to prevent the removal of troops from Camn
Baker by reporting 4an imaginary Indian i'm
vasion OF the Smith river valley, i. A party
of peaceably disposed Indians were fired up
on by a few eowardly herdels, whereupon
The garrison of Camp Baker, accompanied
by a number of citizen volunteers, pursued
the luckless reds and chastised them unmer-
citully for daring to run away, while the
Diamond ''Gimlet'' kept up a short-lived
excitement with its sensation extras. We
learn front parties recently arrived from the
scene of reported hoslilities that there was
no foundation whatever for the alarm except
the bare fact that a few Indians appeared in
the valley, probably without any hostile in
tention.-Bentoss Recora.
The above is a willful and malicious false
hood a gross, uncalled-for and ungentle-
manly attack upon the fair name of the
good people Of Smith river. prevent the
removal of the troops from Camp Baker,"

minded cotemporary-who has flooded the

allied. forces, numbering thousands, was

THE Helena Herald, of June 6, contained
some very sensible talk on the transporter
ton subject. The %drenching rains, which
are becoming more and more prevalent ey-
cry spring as the country grows older and
agriculture increases, render the, Benton
wagon road almost impossible for several
months during the freighting season, which
makes the navigation OF the Missouri above
the Falls a necessity. and, as our cotempor-
airy suggests, the project should be set on
foot this season in order to be ready for SER
vice next year. There is no question but
what Montana's sole reliance for cheap.
freights is in her navigable rivers, and the
farther these are made available into the,
heart of the settlements the better. it. Willbe
for the country. A steamer above the Falls
will doubtless prove a paying investment, as
a large share of the imports and exports Of
the Territory will be transported by water,
even after the Utah q Northern and North
ern Pacific have crossed our valleys, and we
should be pleased to see some enterprising'
company take hold OF the matter in earnest.

The threatening aspect of affairs in Idaho
reminds us that our northern and eastern
frontier is not the only lipe of exposure, and
our old avowed enemy, the wild, untamable
Sioux, not the only Indians from. which we
may expect trouble. Government should
be on the alert, and. prevent a repetition of
last years disasters. 1t is economy to be
prepared for any emergency, and, if neces-
sity requires it, to strike a fierce and decisive
blow at the oppoGtune moment. The time
for dallying with the Indians with the psalm
singing policy has passed. Their rights
should be zealopsly guarded, but just pun
ishment should be meted out,for all misde-
meanors. We cannot afford to have the
peace of the country jeopardized, and its
prosperity checked, every year, by these
outbreaks, and if government cannot put a
stop to it the Territory may of necessity be
compelled to--in which case it will be effect
lively done.

The following decision Of the Supreme
Court of Colorado in regard to the location
of quartz claims may prove of general inter
est to our readers, since quartz mining is be-
coming one of u most prominent INDUS
tries, and too great care cannot begtakenjn
the location Of leads to prevent the possibly
ity of litigation. The court decides: That
no company has a right to "swing" a claim
to- fit the vein; that the surface of a claim
cannot be changed to cover more of the
claim than outcrops on the original location;
that if a claim be surveyed and staked often
a lode supposed to be running north land
south and is afterwards discovered .to,run
east or west, or in any other direction, the
owner can only follow it to the limits of his
surface ground-three hundred feet-that
being the limit of the width of %the.surface
ground. If this view is sustained by the
Court of last resort, it viii; DE a good thing
tor the country, as miners would then ascer-
tain the true direction Of their lode before
securing patents, and thus save themselves
and others much annoyance and expense.
