THE RIVER RES SIS
Joseph's Jaunt.

Mr.. JOS. Hirshberg returned yesterday
from a months trip through Eastern
Montana. He took in a good deal OF
territory, and being a gentleman OF
acute observation, has gathered a vast
amount of interesting information con-
corning the country ~traversed. Leay-
ing here during the delightful first days
of March, he progressed pleasantly Oh
the outward trip. but it was no fun cons
ing back, with snow about q foot deep
everywhere. Mr.. Hirshberg took I'M
the towns Of the judith, Martinsdale,
White Sulphur Springs and Livingston,
one of the "boom" towns Of the Yellow
stone. At the latter place he remained
five days and made judicious invest
ment in a few corner lots, for which he
has since been offered a good deal more
money thar he gave for them. Living
ston, he tells us, is a big town for one so
young, and is growing rapidly. 1t has
not a tributary country to make a town
of it. Towns Of mushroom growth and
supported by the blowing OF a railroad
company Go not survive very long, al
though we trust the capital Of the com
ing county of Park will have a better
fate. Mr.. III. returns, however, more
fully convinced than ever that Fort Ben
ton is the place, the boss town of the
Territory, and he reminded q good many
people of the fact during his absence.
He made particular inquiry as to rates
OF transportation on the railroad, and
finds that the merchants of Benton can
do much better than any town III the
Territory along the line of the Northern
Paciic-a fact that the people on the
Musselshell and Smith river should
make q note of. Fort Benton will con-
tinue as heretofore the best market and
cheapest supply point i'll the. Territory.

Fort Macleod Gazette Items.

Every one is anxiously looking for the
new townsite to be laid out before high
water interferes with operations.
The boat being built by Capt. Todd's
party N the other side of the river is
making good progress. We expect a
steamer to come to Macleod some time
this summer.
Edmonton has been made an electoral
district by Lieut.. Gov. Dewdney. These
electoral districts contain 1000 square
miles, and before a representative can be
elected by the people, there must be 900
inhabitants within the area, exclusive Of
aliens and unfranchised Indians.
What we have always upheld and the
past winter has proved, is that the
choice winter range for cattle is limited
to about 70 miles all around Macleod.
Reports from the Cochrane ranch on
Bow river tell of sever losses, and
throughout the northern country stock
suffered to a great extent. What do
we see on all the ranges about this see
ton? Comparatively little loss, and now
cattle, after being out all winter, are in
splendid condition, and little or ao snow
here all winter, when it has been two
or three feet deep in other sections.

his home and found that worthy gentle
MAJ suffering from q gunshot wound
which he had received a day or two be-

fered severe loss by the incursions of a
huge bear, which made its home in the
mountains near by. Berkins sWore VEN

small game with q shot gun he discover

A Big Land Deal.

Yesterday Major Lincoln, DR.. f. A.
Bickford and A. H. Reser purchased,
through w. B. Settle, over forty-fve
lots in Roosevelt's second addition to
the %townsite, paying therefor over 81, 900.
The gentlemen at first bought twenty OF
these lots at various prices, and subse-
quently purchased some twenty-five
more. They still have the plat in their
possession, and the probabilities are that
they will conclude to take a few more.
Mr.. Settle informs US that he is in daily
receipt Of letters inquiring about Ben
ton real estate. These letters come from
the East and all parts Of the Territory,
and their contents show how important
our city is becoming in the eyes of cap
ital seeking good investment.

Land Commissioners Ruling.

The commissioner of the general land
office at Washington has recently ruled
that local land officers have no authority
to order a hearing as between a pre-emp-
ton and timber culture claimant of land.
The commissioner says that rule five OF
practice enumerates only such hearings
as local officers have authority to order,
viz: First-Contests between pre-emp-
ton claimants. Second-Contests be-
tween homestead and presumption clai-
mants. Third-Contests between the
records Of abandoned homestead entries.
Fourth-Contests to clear the records of
abandoned or forfeited timber culture
entries.

The Catholic Charge in Montana.

A New York dispatch of March 31st
says: The Catholic Reuiew has adyices
from Rome stating that the Holy See
has appointed the Rev. Joseph Rode
macher, of the diocese Of Fort Wayne,
to the See of Nashville, made vacant by
the promotion Of Archbishop Feehan to
Chicago. Bishop Brondtlet, Of Van
couver's Island, has been appointed
apostolical administrator of the vicarate
of Montana, now added to the province
of Oregon, though heretofore belonging
to the province of st. Louis, and admin
istered by the vicar of idaho and Ne
braska. Father Jonckin is appointed
coadjutor cum jame to the Bishop of Van
couver. Manager Brondelet will reside
in Montana, and after the reorganization
of the diocese will finally be transferred
to it.

The Fort Macleod IoWnsite.

Parties just from Macleod report there
is considerable excitement about the new
town. 1t is almost certain that it will
be located this spring, but just where
nobody knows as yet, unless those high
in authority. 1t is believed, however,
that the new town will be on this side
Of the slough a short distance, but as
that would be ON the reserve set apart
last year, land or lot grabbing is out OF
the question. If it is true as reported
some time since that the railroad would
swing down in that direction, the new
town Of Fort Macleod is likely to be a
big one some day.

was ready again to fire, the bear was
chewing the guns muzzle. Berkins
fired, and the bear wheeled suddenly and
run. And now comes the strange part
of the story. The bear had been SO
quick in turning to run that the bullet,
which was going north when it entered
the beasts mouth, was going south by
the time it came out at his back, for the
animal had turned entirely round. This
sent the bullet back toward Rerkins and
it embedded itself in his thigh. The
bear died of its wound. Beidler acknoW-
lodges that the story seems a little tough,
but says Berkins vouches for it and he
ought to know. At any rate it shows
n thing-that the supposed-to-be
clumsy bear is not SO clumsy as he looks.

The Boom.

Surgeons teams arrived yesterday
with a large lot of lumber for the boom,
and work on the same will now progress
more rapidly. Mr.. Griffith informs us
that all the lumber needed to complete
the boom is now sawed and loaded, and
much Of it Ell route to the city. There
no longer any question, he says, but that
the piers will be completed before high
water, as the work can be done in less
than ten days after the arrival of the
lumber.
