was happy effort. The Judge Is IN eloquent
orator, whose dicuon Is choice and whose
style OF delivery j. both forcible and elegant.
Years ago he foreIeld the prosperity Boze.
IMAM to-day enjoys, aud he is confident the
end is not YET. Everyone is glad the ceIe-
bration is over. just prior to the day set
there was two days rain storm, and since
then there has been u snow storm, but the
sun never shone brighter upon, nor n clearer

ANOTHER HOMICIDE.
A coroner's jury summoned last Thursday
is still investigating murder occurring the
day previous. Irving Hunter, a man en-
gagged in ranching in the Gallatin Valley
over eighteen years, law-abiding and gen.
orally respected citizen, was murdered while
At work in grain field. Briefly the circum-
stance, are these. Hunter entered desert
land claim. Lewis and Nathan Lay filed an
adverse claim. The case was appealed from
the local officers and is now before the Com
missioner of the General Land Office Every
thing goes to show that the murder was pre-
mediated, and that there are a number of
persons implicated. No doubt exists in my
mind as to the murderer, but do not deem
il within the province of a correspondent to
anticipate the verdict of the coroner's jury
There are limitations not obscure that fthe
court does not punish the populace will.
THE CITY or BOHEMIAN.
To-day the question of the adoption or re-
lection of the Bozeman incorporation act
was submitted to the qualified voters. At
this writing 1t is impossible to definitely
state the result, but think it has been adopt
ed. Some opposition was manifested, but
there never has been and never will be a
unanimous vote in a community of this size,
on any proposition. One week from to-day
officers will be elected. The time is very short
in which officeseekers will be allowed to
present their claims to the people, but the
general sentiment favors the election of
Peoples ticket.
MINOR MATTERS.

Bogert, Receiver Of the Bozeman Land Of.
