1t is reliably reported that more tho
roughbred stock has been purchared for
Montana this year than ever before. In
Beaverhead County the sales of large
amount Of mixed breed of cattle have been
made for the purpose, in many cases, of
supplanting the inferior bands Of cattle with
thoroughbreds.
Wednesday, south bound passenger train
was delay ed for couple Of hours at point
about one mile south Of the Dillon depot.
The accident was caused by the spreading
of the rails on the track. One passenger
coach was thrown off the rails. No person
was injured, and a short delay Of the train
was the extent of damages.
The six.stamp Shenon mill at Marys.
vile has been thoroughly overhauled and
cleaned up lately. Messrs. Wallace 4
Brannagan have been making sampins
runs with the mill. A sampling OF Blue
Pioneer, Bannack and Wadams mines will
employ the six stamps for short time.
The Dakota, Mademoiselle, and Bee
Hive gold mines, in the Bannack- Marys.
vile District, owned by John Carhartt,
have not been bonded. The report that this
property had been bonded is, therefore,
without foundation. The five.stainp Car
hartt mill has not been included in any
bonds recently taken on property in that
district.
Dillonites were greatly disappointed on
last Tuesday. II was reported that the
Glendale brass band was coming down and
would play sweet music that would sound
melodious to the ears of sssubservient rail-
way peons." The band didn't come, but
we understand that it can furnish county
seat music to order-but positively refuses
to blow gratuitousiy, which isperfectly
proper in this ney-making age.
A number Of prominent citizens Of the
Southwestern portion Of Montana are dis
cussing the matter OF holding Fair during
the coming fall. The subject is meeting with
favorable consideration. There is nothing
10 prevent the people of this section of the
Territory from organizing a society and
holding a Fair at Dillon that would be pro.
ductive Of mutual and lasting benefits.
A special meeting Of the Dillon Literary
Society was held at School Hall last Tues
day evening for the purpose Of arranging
for the celebration Of the Fourth. Com.
'nittees were appointed on arrangements,
and finance. There will be an
other meeting Of the Society. at the School
Hall, on next Tuesday evening, June 13th.
All interested are cordially invited to at.
tend the meeting.
Visionary men who live in the mad little
nook on the Bannack brook are agitating
the project of erecting grist mill at that
place. A good idea. The water power at
Bannack is ample, and, to quote Horace
Greeley, "you are liar and horse.thief|
if you doubt it," There is only one thing
in the way Of making grist mill at Ban
mack tremendous success. The limited
amount Of Glendale grist to grind will
cincl, this laudable project. l
Our Dillon poet is no small potatoes.
He writes good poetry and it is entirely
within coming probabilities that our rhym.
er will yet gain poetical reputation. We
notice in Lcslie's Chimney Cnymey a very
cretlitable poem from the pen Of our Dill
lon poet. We sympathize with young poets
Tor we once wrote poetry ITO Blue
Eyed Angel" and know the bitter results.
The angel lived but the poetry died, and
hence our sympathy for struggling poets.
The London Company, at Silver Star is
running its forty. stamp mill on gold quartz
from the celebrated Broadway mine with
satisfactory results. The Broadway is look.
ing well, with large ore-reserve in sight. !
The Iron Rod mill is employed in doing
custom crushing for different parties. On !
The famous Green Campbell mine devel.
oping work Is being done, and the indica-
lions arc that ere long it will again be pro-
ducing large quantities of rich ore, as 1t did
IN former years. The outlook for the Sill
yer Star-lron Rod camp is very bright.
