Attenpt,d Murder in Deer Lodge.

A ranchnan near Warm Spring, IN
Deer Lodge,ounty, named Victor Hory,
attempted temurder his neighbor, Israel
Gibbs. TheIatter had gone to bed, when
he heard a 1Dise in the stable, and going
out he was net inside the stable door by
Hory, who struck at him with a heavy
club. Gibbsjumped back through the
door and Hoy followed, striking at him
again, the ED OF the club this time hit
ting Gibbs o. the left ear, bruising and
decorating it but fortunately not stun
ming him. AS he drew to strike again
Gibbs closedin on him, running under
the club, which flew out of Hory's
hands. Gibbs then held Hory and
searched hin for weapons, taking from
him a navy evolver. Hory got hold OF
the club again. Gibbs said, "Quit or
I'll kill you, 'ibut Hory raised the club
and advancedagain, when Gibbs again
sprang towam him. Hory, dropping
the club, grssped with both hands for
the pistol, which Gibbs held in his right
hand. Gibbs then threw his left arm
around Hory threw him, and held him,
and then searched him for other Wea-
pons, Hory protesting he had no other
but a pocket Knife. Gibbs then called,
rousing his hired man, who came out,
got a rope, AMI held a light while Gibbs
pinioned Hoy's arms securely. They
then took Hory to the house, he MAX
ing no resistance.
1t appears that Gibbs was called on as
arbitrator in ! division of property be-
tween Hory and a former partner Of his,
and Hory always maintained that Gibbs
wronged himIin his decision. Things
generally have gone against Hory in the
last few years, and he got dispirited and
desperate and made up his mind to kill
Gibbs and his former partner and then
do away with his own life. This is his
version. He is now in the Deer Lodge
Jail. The NeW North West gives a full
account of the affair.

An Important Transfer.

Six deeds, embodying about 1000
acres Of land for Jas. J. Hill, Presi-
dent and the leading spirit of the Man
itobe railroad, and Paris Gibson of this
city, were filed for record day before
Wednesday with the county recorder.
This land lies near the mouth Of Sun
River, not far from the Great Falls, and
is to be its site, SO rumer says, of a
coming metropolis. The fact that the
railroad king of the northwest is one of
the interested parties goes to show that
there is something important behind
this purchase. Whatever it is we are
glad to see Jim Hill becoming interested
in this section; it means that he is look
ing this way and means to extend his
system Of railroads into Northern Mon
tana, the Great Falls being one of his
objective points, move that will prob
ably be made sooner than many think.

during the past fall and winter he has

tain sheep and 2 mountain lions-an the
victims of his unerring rifle. His hunt
ing range is along the foot hills from the
upper Judith to the Gap, and few men
in the territory are more successful than
he. This fall Mr.. Hoover expects to
make a visit to his folks back in Wayne
county, Indiana, and he will have no
difficulty in paralyzing the Quakers
back there by relating some of bis ex-
p~eriences as a hunter, and it will not be
necessary 40 vsry q hair'sbreadth from

A Big Strike in the Montana District

Messrs. Neihart and Crandall, of the
Montana district, have already been out
in the mountains on a prospecting tour,
and the report reaches us that they have
struck the biggest thing yet in the way
Of a nine feet vein of free-milIing ore,
Oh the west slope of Black Badly and
not far from the locations made last year
by Dan. Dutro on Snow creek. This is
undoubtedly a rich mineral field-the
ore is principal -milling-and we
expect to hear of some important discov-
cries this summer. Barker is already
excited owe the discovery made by Me
hart and Crandall, and quite a number
of prospectors are preparing to enter the
new field. The snow has melted but
very little in the mountains, and it will
be nearly a month yet before the pros
pectors ean work to advantage, but, i'm
patient Of delay, they are already 0
ing towards the new Ell Dorado.

The Benton Library.

The Benton library and reading room
is now open to the public from 7 till 10
o'clock every evening, Sundays except
ed, and contains a rare selection Of books
and a fine catalogue Of periodicals for
those who wish to spend an hour or two
in the evening as a passtime in reading.
Miss McQuillan, the librarian, will re-
ceive all money for membership, which
will be, for one year, S., and for six
months, So. Members and others taking
books from the library are especially re-
quested to read the rules pasted on the
inside of the first over.
This is an enterprise which benefits
no individual alone, but every citizen Of
Benton, and it is hoped that all will take
a membership in it, that it may become
in every sense a grand success. The Of
ficers in charge extend thanks to all who
have SO generously aided by their sub
scriptions in this splendid Werk. Too
much cannot be said in praise of Mrs. s..
Duffin and Miss Jessie Kennedy, for the
energy and interest displayed by them
in soliciting subscriptions and collecting
funds with which to start this scheme.
All are welcome and invited to call any
evening during the hours above men
toned. It may be added that any who
wish to make donations of books may
leave word with the librarian Or send
them to the library. Such gifts will be
thankfully received.

What About Grass?

hdnshS
The writer of this, by special invita-
ton, spent the Fourth at Usage Mis-
sion, Neosho county. He went down
over the Kansas City, Font Scott and
Gulf road as far as Scott, and returned
over the Missouri Pacific, running
across the line to Nevada, Mo-, thence
up to Pleasant Hill on the Main line.
The trip furnished text for this arti-
Gle. We had not been over that par
ticular territory for several years, and
hence were agreeably surprised at the
general improvement of the country,
In Johnson, Miami, Linn and Bourbon
counties, the land is nearly all fenced.
Prairie grass has gone to come not
again. But there were many fields of
clover, timothy and red-top. The same
is true of the Missouri counties over
which our route lay. II there is any
prettier farming region anywhere on
earth than is found in eastern Kansas
and southwestern Missouri, we would
be pleased to know where it is.
What is true of those counties in
reference to grass is equally true OF
some 'others in Kansas; and, sooner or
later, will be true of most of them.
Wild grass must 60. What about grass
when that time comesP OF course the
departure will not occur in day or a
year; but it is not long since the couI
ties we have named were settled, yet
they have as pretty fields of tame
grasses as any one need wish to look
at, and the same policy which has
brought about that condition of things
there will do the same in others, and
it must.
The culture of tame grasses in Kan
sas has not been as uniformly success
full as it is in some other states, and es-
pecially in the eastern and middle

IMPORTANT DECISIONS.
The Railroad Commissioners Pass OF
Two Complaints.


Two Complaints.
The following decisions have been
rendered by the railroad commission
ers:
G.. X. Anderson vs.. the Missouri Pa
cifc Railway-In the matter of COM
plant made bv c. X. Anderson, of
Mahan, Kansas, that the charge of S5
per car, made by the Missouri Pacific
railway, for the switching of coal over
one-half mile of their track, at Fort
Scott, Kansas, from the junction of
the Missouri Pacific with the Kansas
City, Fort Scott & Gulf railway, to the
st. Louis, Fort Scott d Wichita rail-
way, is excessive and eXhorbtant, the
board finds, from a careful investiga-
ton, that, for the same service, at the
same place, the charge of fifty cents is
made for the transfer of live stock,
and 81 per carload for the transfer of
fence-posts and stone.
The board further finds that no extra
power or force is employed by the Mis-
souri, Pacific railway to perform this
service in addition to the usual freight
trains on their road. In view of all
the facts and evidence obtained, the
board decided that an amount not to
exceed two dollars per car, for such
transfers of coal, is q reasonable and
proper charge made by the Missouri
Pacific railway.
The board is of the opinion that
such switching expense should not be
borne by the shipper, but that the rail
roads, at the points where they centre
and receive freight from connecting
oh do lu 70
for transfer of shipments, connections,
or otherwise as will in no manner dis
criminate against the shippers en-
gagged in business on connecting lines
of roads.
If this shipping expense is paid by
shippers on one line, and not by those
on another, it becomes tax on their
business and discrimination which
should not exist. The board believes
it the duty of the st. Louis, Fort Scott
and Wichita railroad to so arrange its
connections with the different lines of
roads at Fort Scott as to avoid these
discriminatory charges.
j. III. Huddleston VS.. Atchison, To-
peka Il Santa Fe railroad. The party
complaining in this instance states that
he is charged on shipments of grain
from Eudora to Kansas City two cents
per hundred pounds over and above
the rate charged on grain shipped over
the same line when consigned to eleva-
tors. His grain was consigned to the
Zenith Mills. The railroad company
admits that the charge, and justiies
the same by showing "that when grain
is delivered to elevators it is, rs rule,
promptly disposed of-requires less
switching and less labor every way, at
Missouri river stations, than when de-
livered on the track. 1t is further
represented to us, that if
shipments of grain for track
delivery at Kansas City were permitted,
there would be great portion of the
time when the company would he
obliged to refuse to receive grain at ALL
from the fact that the track would be
blockaded at points of destination on
account of the delay of parties unload
ing. These considerations are entitled
to great weight. They present pos
sible state of things which is likely to
entail great loss on the company, by
