A Lameniable Defense.

They have funny way of telling
story in Washington. IL IL now
claimed 10y one of the friends oi United
States Marshal Hall Of Western Penn
sylvania, who is short in his accounts
$20O, 900, or some such trile, that Meth
er the marshal nor the government
would ever have known of the matter
il il had not been for the vexatious el-
forts of "a miserable blackmailer"
who had been deputy In the mar
shal's office. IL seems that THIS an
moving person observed the loose
manner in which the marshals BUSH

informer" then went TO Washington,
laid his Impoverished inior-
nation before the department, an eX-

was soon found to be 500 600. Mr..
Hall WAS again very much astonisbed
indeed, more astonished Than any
body else. Say his friends; "The mat
ter so worked upon him that IL was
feared he might commit suicide, and
watch was set upon him to prevent
any such unfortunate occurrence"
Subsequently the defalcation was
found TO reach 100000, but at this
point the marshal seems To have got

his as,onishment at the later develop

There IL guilelessness evinced IN
the narration Of this story that would
do credit TO II Sunday-school class.
The spectacle OF man being wholly
ignorant that he was deianlter To the
government until wretched black
mailer called his attention To II Is one
that can only be enjoyed in such inno-
cent aud guileless circles ~ a Chinese

are not only injuring their clients

Hall himself appear ridiculous.

The GAZETTE has certainly taken
the correct position upon this qnes-
tion. If the legislature mt the expira-
ton of the thirty days has not accom-
plished that for which 1t Is now called,
there would surely he no good sense
or economy in going home, and Gov.

Forfeited Land Grants.

The Senate committee on public lands
has decided to report the bills forteitirg the
land grants opposite uncompletcd portions
Of the Northern Pacific main and branch
lines and the Atlantic s. Pacific railroads.
Senator Plumb, chairman Of the committee,
SAYS it is impossible to calculate the mum.
her Of acres invo,vcd. In both cases some
of the land was taken up before the charter
was granted, and in the case OF the Atlantic
& Pacific the road was not constructed in
the direction contemplated. Nominally
the Senator thinks the f"rftiting Of the
Northern Pacific will amount to thirteen
million acres and the Atlantic y Pacific 10
thirty six million acres. Slater, the author
of the bill providing for the forfeiture ol
the land grant Of the Northern Pac'fic,says
the actual number Of acres that have been
forfeited along that line is seven million,
which is thirty million acres less than es'
timated by the House COMMITTEES on pub
lie lands. Senator Slater's bill further pro-
vidrs that lands hereafter selected, If occu'
pied BY bona file settlers, shall be sold al

Indians on y Raid.

A Maple Creek, Manitoba, dispatch of
the 2Sth inst. says: The Indians raidet the
settlement last night, killing Paul Pollock
and stampeding forty horses. Details later.
LATER.-The Indians went to Pollock S
corral and we're running out his horses,
when Pollock hearing the noise jumped
out Of bed hastily and ran out in his night
clothes unarmed. He had hand to- hand
tussle with the Indians aud in the melee
was shot twice, one ball entering his shoul-
der and the other passing through his chest,
from the effects of which he died in about
two hours. The Indians left Immediately
after the shooting. The mounted police
were notified and force with Supt. Ellis
in command started for the scene Of the
murder with the intention Of pursuing the
Indians. There is little hope Of the In.
dians being captured. The raiding party
numbered about twenty or thirty. 1t is not
known whether they are American or
Canadian Indians.

Monta Cattle Shipments,

Northern Pacific statistics show that
during the shipping season Of 1883 there
were l,776 car loads Of beef cattle shipped
over their line from points in Yellowstone
valley between Mcclellan station and Liv.
ingston. OF this number $50 car loads
went from the Miles City stock yards. I,
appears that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St
Paul road, as a shirring route for stock
between st. Paul and Chicago, takes the
lead, since out Of the above number of car
loads 1859 went over the famous "River
Bank" route. Eastern Montana stockmen
in estimating this years shipments, put the
number much higher than that of last year
and the lowest estimate given is ,,3oo car
loads. or about 10000 head The iarges,
shippers will be Hughes & Simpson, who
alone will send to Chicago markets l4oo

HOME PATRONAGE.

| To the Editor Of the Dillon TRIBUNE:
Believing the columns of your paper arc
dedicated to all subjects that pertain to
the public good, have assumed the liberty
OF expressing my views upon a subject
which concerns every permanent resident
Of Dillon. Your little town Is surrounded
with every facility for building up to such
proportions as will make It city in time,
not far distant, of which the Territory al
large might we'll be proud. But there Is
one great drawback to its future advance.
inent and financial power. Many Of your
best citizens have conceived the idea that
in order to live cheaply, and to save the
''aln'ighty dollar" 1t is necessary for them
to give their patronage to Eastern firms
Let us right here make an investigation.
! presume there are 500 property owners
In the town of Dillon. Suppose that one.
third Of that number should receive their
wants directly from the warehouses oI
Chicago, would it not be natural to con.
clude that an immediate stagnation of bust.
ness among your merchants would follow
And this stagnation would incontroverti.
bly, depreciate the value OF real estate held
by the very men who give their patron.
age to Eastern firms. Instead Of building
up the commercial interests Of their own
town, and enhancing the value Of property
therein, they are expanding the area ot
Chicago and dwarting the growth Of your
infant city. This class Of people has be-.
come so accustomed to this injudicious
manner Of spending their money, that even
the peddlar is welcomed with outstretched
arms, and his oily tongue easily influences
the unsuspecting victims to make pur.
chase and, when the cunning vendor OF
shoddy goods has made his exit for other
climes, reason returns 10 some of them and
they begin to slowly discover that they
have been the dupes Of designing knave.
Yet, these very people, who earn their
brea'l by the sweat oi their brow and who
receive the necessarics Of life from Eastern
cities, would feel terribly wronged should
the men Of Dillon, whose business
demands the employment Of labor, refuse
to engage their services.
My advice is: Keep the money earned
in Dillon, and its surroundings, at home.
Let one branch of business support another
and, one day not far distant, the traveller

1t is true, that every one has the legal right
to spend their money as they please, but
it would be far better Tor them were they
to spend 1t at home, amongst the people

In conclusions: Patronize home indus.
