Prince Lunalilo was elected
by acclaim, however, and
entered the Iolani Palace to
reign but for fourteen months,
the well-beloved of his people,
the steadfast friend of the
United States, a Hawaiian
chief with the love of his
subjects in his bosom and an
aristocrat who cherishedevery
feeling of fondness for the de-
mocracy of his island-king-
dom. Lumalilo lived and
died a heartfelt Hawaiian.
On the 18th of February,
1874, Colonel David Kala-
kaua was duly chosen for the
throne, Lrnalilo being dead.
The adopted element in the
islands feared that they would
be at sorry discount after his
radical change of dynasty.
AT the last election for rep
resentatives to the legislative
assembly the rallying cry of
the majority had been Hawaii
for the Hawaiians. Great
fervor was wrought up. 1t
was seen too clearly that
every neutral nation but
America possessed a special
axe to grind, and glanced
askance at those Pacific Isles
with conquest or acquisition
by purchase in their spark
ling eyes. Accordingly for
the first time in Hawaiian
history a legislature was
elected with but one foreign
representative. New Hawaii,
Young Hawaii, was in jovial
glee and rampant. 1t was
thus when the duty again
devolved upon the kingdom
to elect a successor to the
Hawaiian sceptre; the natives
had complete control Of the
country, naturalized citizens
were nowhere.
Kalakaua, although a Ha-
waiian to the core, was like
wise cosmopolite. He had
learned, since the previous
election, that the safety of
the islands, from foreign
aggression, if not seizure, lay
in the direction of Cancellation
and protection from their
nearest neighbor, the States,
with whose neutralpol their
true interests were identical.
He, therefore, appeared upon
the stage of events as an

Americans make up a large
percentage of the citizens,
and Kalakaua had gained eX-
perience meanwhile. Queen
Emma (the buXom widow of
Kamehameha the Fourth)
was put forward as the can
didate more decidedly repre-
scnting the claims of British
supremacy in the affairs of
Hawaii. Should England OF
America dominate in the con-
test? Each rival wooed the
dusky damsel of the deep
with jealousy of any virgin
favors shown the other.
Should Miss Hawaii smile on
John or Jonathan? The crisis
would soon show.
Wrangling was rife in
Honolulu. Mutual misrepre-
sensations of motives were
made. A cloud of words
prevailed. The assembly met
to cast their ballots for the
crown. There were forty
five votes to poll. David Ka-
lakaua received thirty-nine,
Queen Emma only six. The
former was chosen monarch
Of the isles. When the result
was announced to thepopulace
outside (singularly similar to
the sidewalk committee of our
American cities) a tumult
straightway arose. The adj
herents of good Queen Emma
raised a row. They hoarsely
roared and groaned their dis
approval. This was resented
by the followers of the newly
created king, and success
insured a legion such, who
hooted defiance in the faces
of the indignant disappointed.

wich Islanders, whose name
had ever been synonymous
with peace and pleasantness,
were instantly transformed
into Astor Place rioters, Frisco

the representatives who had
thrown in their votes for the
king were hurt severely, the
doors were broken in, the
windows of the courthouse
shattered with stones, the
furious throng rushed into the

Shonk1n Stock Association.

The Shonkin roundup being conclud.
ed the association held it's regular an
nual meeting Thursday night in Cans &
klelns former store room, which has
been for some time the Headquarters OF
the wool growers. There was a full at
tendance and the meeting was an unu-
sually interesting one The association
was in session until one o'clock this
morning, the bulk CT the business trans
acted being of interest only to the mem1
bers. Mr.. Belcher, of the Canadian PA
cific railroad, was present at the opening
OF the session and presented the advaH-
tages OF the G. 2. route for the shipment
OF cattle east, and his talk" was very
favorably received. The stockmhn
of the Sun river, Teton and MarIas
ranges will ship that way, and the Sh9n-
kin association will doubtless do like
wise. Such was the general sentiment
last night, as the facilities and accom-
modations offered by the Canadian Pa
cific are superior to those of the North
ern Pacific, to say nothing about rates.
Another important matter determined
upon last night was that in referenceato
bulls. 1t was decided to take off of bhe
range all the old bulls and replace them
with 100 head.o Of young high grade ami
mails. Although the branding this year
was good-larger than last season-they
attribute the fact that it was not an ex-
t%raordinary branding to the number of
old bulls Oh the range, and propose to
make the necessary change at once.

A-BagSheep Sale.


On Saturday last Hon. H. M. Cochrane
purchased of Alex. G.. Johnson and
Richter & Hunt, whose ranch is on the
Teton, some fifty miles above the city,
their entire flock Of sheep, numbering
within a few of 5000 head. This is the
largest single transfer of sheep that has
ever been made in northern Montana,
and it is a very important II in view
OF the fact that the purchaser will drive
the flock to the far northwest, the Bow
river country, where the experiment of
wool growing in that section will be
thoroughly tested, and, as webuf1eve,,
with gratifying success. This band Of
sheep rs as good ali average lot as there
is in Montana. They have been bred
for five years to thoroughbred merino
bucks and are of good grade, thoroughly
acclimated and entirely free from all
diseases. Mr.. Cochrane could not have
found a more desirable flock to start
with, and if they fail to rustic through
the winters the elements must be badly
against them. The price is not made
public, but we understand it is a fair
one. On Sunday Mr.. Cochrane went
out to G. d. Patterson's ranch on the
Shonkin, and returned Monday. He
will probably purchase from Mr.. Patter-
son from n to two thousand head adj
ditional. He paid Mr.. Patterson the
high compliment of saying that his
ranch, range and conyeniences for han
ding sheep are the best he has seen in
the west.

Bulls on the Ranges of Colorado.

Upon the mountain ranges and on the
plains of Colorado there are to-day not
less than 10000 bulls. The money invest
ed in these animals will average a million
dollars Or more. The valuation will
range from $40 to $500 each. BY a law
Of the state these brutes are required to
be well bred. Not a %broadhorn, a Next
can, or a native scrub is allowed to exist
or even roam this great domain. While
the cow may be of lowly origin, the
bull must be of royal blood. To keep
this family of bulls replenished it re-
quires a yearly addition of from five to
eight thousand animals. Probably three
quarters of these are imported from the
western states of Missouri, Iowa and
Kansas. The other quarter are bred at
home. To purchase these from abroad
it requires from $3.50, 900 to $500, 900
yearly to pay for them. Nine-tenths Of
this mammoth bull family are grades,
while probably a tenth are thorough
breds, with pedigrees recorded in herd
books.-Denyer Tribune.

MI. G. g.. Conrad returned Wednes-
day from Chestnut, where he had been
on business connected with the transfer
and delivery of the SWEET herd of cattle.
to the Walrond Rancho company. The
delivery was made before he left and the
cattle are now Oh this side of the river
and on their way to the ranch Of the
Walrond company near Fort Macleod.
Contrary to the usual order in such
transactions, the herd overran Mr..
Swetts estimate, there being in his band
1897 head. The Walrond company also
purchased the herd Of A. J. Samuel, of
this city, on the same range, which
numbered $50 Matchmaking the total
number received by the Walrond COM
pany, 3,647. The Canadian company
had to give up something like $40, OOV

Something About a Horse.

To buy a horse an intending purchaser
should have the horse brought out before
him and watch the animal as he stands
at rest. IF the owner is continually
starting the horse into motion and urg-
ing him to "show off, something may
be suspected, because it is when a horse
is at perfect rest that his Viewpoints are
divulged. If the horse is sound he will
stand square on his limbs, without NOV
ing any of them, the feet being placed
flat on the ground, and all his legs plump
and naturally posed. If one foot be
thrown forward, and the toe pointing to
the ground and the whole weight taken
from it, disease or tenderness may be
suspected.-Cheyenne Live Stock Jour
nal.

Shipping Cattle by the Northern Route.

MI. Belcher, the representative of the
Canadian Pacific railroad company, has
closed a contract with r. P. Walker,
manager of the Montana Cattle COM
pany, for the shipment of from one to
three thousand head Of cattle to Chicago
via the Canadian Pacific and Manitoba
roads to st. Paul. I.'G. Baker & CO.
will also ship over 1000 steers east by
this route, and these initial shipments
will doubtless lead to many others. In
deed the prospect is that all the cattle of
Northern Montana to be sent to the east
ern market will go by the northern
route They make it an object for the
stockmen to ship that way.

The Helena Stock Convention.

The Shonkin Stock association has
not, we learn, appointed a delegate to
represent that range at the general stock
convention to be held at Helena on the
18th inst. The Shonkin association is
spne of the best and most progressive in
the territory, and it is hardly in keep
ing with its good record and progressive
spirit to stand aloof from a movement
as important as that of organizing a ter
ritorial association which has for its OBJ
ject the general advancement Of the
stock Interests of the territory. Dele
gates hav been named from nearly all
q other stock sections of Montana, and
as the Shonkin association is more close
ly identified with Fort Benton than any
other, we would like, for the credit Of
this section, to see them represented.
