Back From the Diggings.

Dave Mcdaniel returned from Peoples
creek Tuesday evening. His report only
conirms what has already been said re-
rardiug that district. The prospects are
Tpry encouraging. The drain being
made by the company, it is expected,
will reach bedrock this fall. Dave will
take back a load of lumber and other
supplies, prepared to stay all winter,
and will commence sluicing the gravel
already taken out as soon as he returns.
He saws that Dutch Louie is hiring men
at four dollars a day and found, and has
ante a large crew at work. Dave is Of
tthe opinion that but little prospecting
has been done, except in Little Alder
and Peoples creek.

that the cattle Wefein better condition
on arrival than when starting.
Mr.. Belcher says there is no uuaran-
tine, and the expense of inspection is
borne by the railroad company. There
are no delays experienced; the cattle
are shipped Immediately on their ar
rival, and the fast stock trains take them
to Winnipeg usually i'll twenty-four
hours. This fact is a good and sufficient
reason why all the cattle from Northern
Montana should be shipped by the Can
adian Pacific.

The OLD Diamond f."

The Miles City Record of last evening
credits Matt Carroll with being b
founder Of the famous Diamond r.
Has it Y heard of John r. Rowe, OF
St. Louis, who brought BroadWater,
Maclay and Carroll into the country? =
Yellowstone Journal.
The famous Diamond R" Transpor-
tation company was ounded by Capt.
Nick Wall, under the firm nameo Of John
:. Roe & Co., in 1863. The other mem
bers were John @. Copelin and Capt.
Wall. In 1868, the old firm, desiring to
close out their business, sold the same 10
e. G. Maclay, George Steel and Mat
thew Carroll. 1t was noJ until the rl-
lowing year that C. A. BroadWater was
taken into the firm. Mr.. Maclay came
to the country with Capt. Nick Wall,
and was the only one of the new firm
who came with Capt. Wall. Messrs.
Carroll & Steel were both in the employ.
of the American Fur company until
they went into business in Fort Benton.
The Diamond r. was the most ex-
tensive freighting outfit west OF q
Mississippi river, and their operations
extended all over the territories OF Mon
tana, Utah. Idaho and Wyoming. Inc
firm was practically dissolved IN 1879 or
1879, Mr.. Steele withdrawing Irsl, MI.
Carroll next and finally MI. Maclay.
| While it was in the hands Of Mr. Broad
water he became associated with a. Il.
Wilder and James Hubbell, Of St. Paui,
when the old Diamond r. was merged
into the transportation company known
as the Diamond b.
The Diamond r. is a thing OF the
past. Tt brought wealth to It's owners,
but it's usefulness was narrowed by the
advent of railroads. It is a~ffectlonately
remembered by many OF the Old quill
whackers, employees OF the company;
They employed probably three hundred
men in its palmy days.

Capt. Mills Opinion.

The following letter, among many
others, was read at the republican ratifi-
cation meeting at Helena, afterthe NOM
nations were made:
DEER LODGE, September 81, 1884.
Chairman Republican Territorial Con-
Uenticn:
The action of the republican conven-
ton in this day nominating Hon. Hiram
Knowles for delegate to congress means
a united party and a republican victory.
OF sterling character and too broad OF
mind to be severed by sectional preju-
dice or personal arrangement, he COM
bines every element Of a successful lead
er in what should be, and I believe is,
republican Montana.

Late Cattle Shipments Over the Canadian
Pacific.

W. E. Belcher returned from Maple
creek Wednesday, and from him Y
reporter gathered the following informa-
uon relative to late shipments OF cattle
from Maple creek. The herd in charge
Of Messrs. Spencer and. Kelly arrived on
Saturday last, and one train loaded at
once. The balance were loaded on Sum
gay. The first train load were shipped
through to Winnipeg, q distance OF GUY
miles, in twenty-four hours, without
stopping. The second train halted at
Moose Jaw for feed, SO hat the cattle
would not arrive too fast at Winnipeg.
The band OF cattle of the Benton q St.
Louis Cattle company, in charge OF Jack
Harris, was about six miles from Maple
creek on Sunday, and would probably
arrive in time for shipment on Monday.
Messrs. Carter g. Tasker, who purchased
.lhis band of cattle, were at Maple creek,
having passed over the route Of their
drive. They express themselves as very
much pleased with the trail, and state
