BOULDER Cry, M. T., Oct. %, 1884
The District Court is still In session
but will adjourn this evening.
CRIMINAL BUSINESS.
On the oath the Edmonson bows,
Henry and John. were brought into
court and pleaded not guilty to the
charge of stealing horses. Messrs.
Pemberton and Duffy were engaged
to defend them and made q motion
for a change of venue. Granted and
trial set for November 18th at Hell
ena.
After the arrival of these gentle
men of the field and turf under a
strong guard, at the suggestion of
the Court and several attorneys re-
Gently held up by some of the CO.
laborers of the festive Knights of the
Prairie, the force was increased to a
dozen armed warriors from the bow
els of the earth and newly-tlowed
ground. Strong talk of q vigilance
racket, new hempen rope and a o
beam was INDUCED in by many, but
better judgment prevailed and the
county was saved the expense of a
double funeral.
In the case of John F. Pascoe.
Richard WEIGH and John Slater.
charged with arson, the jury failed to
agree and the prisoners were again
taken to Helena to appear at the
next term of court, which opens on
Monday next.
HELD UP.
On Saturday last Patrick Fenton
was held up by an aggravating and
lmpecunious tramp between Boulder
and Jefferson and relieved of a sack
of apples and his small change. An
unearthly looking John Doe was
bounced upon and brought into
court as the offending party. Upon
the appearance OF MI. Fenton he de-
clared he had never encountered the
prisoner. The latter insisted upon
it that he had, and at about the time
and place, and that the time of day
pa sed between them. The mans
apparent honesty and Mr.. Fenton's
ditto procured an immediate release
of TIT. accused.
INDEFATIGABLE.
Were there ever, in Montana his |
tory, produced such lndefatig-
able, inextinguishable, unquench-
able, untiring workers in the good
cause as Pemberton and Duffy. Their
abiquity is simply astounding, their
faith contagious, their efforts hercu-
IAN, their cause just, their reasoning
Incontrovertible. They are here,
here, everywhere at the right time
n the right place to say the correct

Mr. Toole and his friends are all in

to do what he can to have
