We we've very pleasantly sar-

some fine oysters, with the COM
pliments of Mr.. Heintz." They
were rich, rare and luscious, and
We experienced great pleasure in
providing suitable accommodations
for them. Dir. Heintz has also es.
tablished an ice house in Coriny-
ton, which We hope will be literally
patron!zed. Ice is a great luxury
at this season of the year, and in
many cases of sickness it is a necss-

Heintz's enterprise will meet with
substantial encouragement.

Manitoba road the reports are good and the
harvest will be Of average quantity and
fine quality. Only the most favorable
news comes from Dakota. In the Mis-

looks magnificent, and the prospects are
of the largest yield ever harvested. The
grassboprers did little harm, and have
mostly left. Farmers all over this state
are busy in harvesting barley and oats,

Most of the farmers will begin their

Trouble for the North Pacific.
Helena Independent.]

Farmers on the He'll Gate are giving
the North Pacific railroad considerable
trouble. Thirteen of them recently re-
fusedsto permit the graders to work on
their farms. Commissioners were ap-
pointed to ::appraise the value of their
lands and performed that duty. Three
of the farmers have since made satisfac-
tory arrangements with the company, but
the remaining ten daily refuse the grad
ing to proceed over their lands. These
decline to make any terms, either with
the commissioners or the company. If
this thing continues the company will
doubtless conclude that they have
reached the entrance'of the Internal re-
gions or at least that the country is we'll
named. .@.t sN@ -. Z.
