Charles Clay, who has Just returned
from Miles City, Gays that while the
town is growing somewhat it will never
assume great proportions. 1t Is located
in a good stock growing region and
will be kept up for many years on that
account. But its population is already
as big as 1t will be. Much of its de-

thither, and there will be but little.

but they made no move to return them
until the owner started inside the In

tracked), to hunt them up. Then they
produced them, but on being paid the
stipulated price they threw the money
in the payers face, demanded double
the sum, and compelled its payment.
They also openly robbed the party of
food, and when one of the whites was
lost and four days without eating, they
refused him food. They have plenty of
money and good horses, and II infor-
mant Is sure they will make serious
trouble this summer.
