A Successful stock Raiser.

| We are informed that Mr.. Charles An
ceney, who for several years past has been
paying considerable attention to the i'm.
provement of his cattle herd, recently sold
to Mr.. Shattered, an experienced cattle buy
er from the East, fifty odd head of steers,
all under four years old and some even as
low as two years. The price is not made
public, but We learn that it was much
higher than the ruling rates for common
or average stock Of similar ages. Mr..
Statered was in town short time since,
and spoke in high terms of Mr.. Anceney's
herd, expressing himself publicly as 10 its
superiority over the cattle Of Montana in
general. The fact may not be fully appre-
ciated in this immediate vicinity, as we
are more or less liable to overlook or I'M
derestimate the good qualities of articles
or animals belonging to our immediate
neiglbors, but there appears little ground
to doubt that Mr.. Anceney has some of
the best short-llorn stock in the Territory.
This we infer, not only from the testimony
Of the gentleman to whom we have re-
ferred, but to the fact that Mr.. Anceney
has recently made most advantageous sales
to parties in other portions OF the Terri
tory; notably the fine lot of young bulls
sold to Mess. Sand Bros. and Mr.. Taylor,
Of Helena. We so learn that Mr.. An
ceney is in correspondence with parties de-
sirous Of purchasing the next lot wien
rea ~ for market. Thus it will be seen til;
superior stock finds ready sale and at very
remunerative prices.

We are beginning to feel justly proud OF
the Touring mills of Galhtin County.
During the past two years by the intro
duction of new and improved machinery,
and employment of none but first-class
millers, the quality of flour produced is
nearly 100 per cent. better than formerly.
We are pleased 20 learn that the fancy
brands now turned out at the Valley Mills
are taking rank with the best in the mar
ket. j. j. TomlinsOn 4 Sons have been
along for years under great dif-
ficulties and discouragements, but with
their new machinery and first-class mil

they have brighter hopes for the future.
We wish them abundant success.

On Friday last, in the doorway of the
Sheriff's Office in this town, Ira H. Pierce,
who, in the absence of r. p. Vivion, is act
ing as District Attorney, brrtally assaulted
w. w. Anderson, senior editor of this pa
per. and struck him on the head with a
heavy cane. Immediately after the blow
being dealt, Anderson stepped back into
the Office few feet for the purpose of de-
Tending himself, when lie was followed by
Pierce, clinched and crowded against a
writing desk, but not in time, however, to
prevent Anderson from drawing and cock
ing revolver, which he apparently intend
ed to use as remGhstrance to the brute
courage displayed by his assailant. Just
