A large number of emigrant trains pass
through Bozeman every day.
For Easter q superb line of Easter
souvenirs and Easter cards just received
at Basinski Bros.
1t is said that the author of "Pilly,
Willie, Western Bums," also wrote
Beautiful Snow"
It is said that Judge Coburn was ap-
pointed secretary of this Territory nine
teen years ago, by President Lincoln,
but declined.
1t will be seen by our columns that the
CHRONICLE is having "boom" in adver-
tisements. As widespread medium its
merits are becoming recognized.
Saturday night stranger attempted to
run the LaClede hotel but he reckoned
without his host and found quarters in
the calaboose instead of the hotel.
Messrs. Garrison & Strong, the Billing
packers, now running on the Spokane
Falls route, were recently forced to kill
their pack animals in order to save them
from death by starvation and exposure.
George Huston started last night from
Livingston for Bozeman, but was so
paralized with Sleep that he did not
get off the train when it reached the de-
pot. We did not think George would
give Bozeman the 60 by.
The Northwest for March copies an
alleged funny article regarding Fred
Brooksbank from the CHRONICLE, and
credits it to the Courier. The Northwest
has made several such mistakes, and the
exchange editor of that otherwise non
pariel journal is asked to be more care
full.
Out in Montana the other day a man
was hanged for lying. This will greatly
hinder immigration to that country
Bismarck Tribune Yes, we cannot ex-
pect to get anybody from Dacotah. If
the same policy was pursued there, we
fear the chances of its ever being state
would be slim.
One of the prominent speakers at the
Republican pow-wow in Columbus, Ohio,
the other day, was Col. Bob Harlan, the
colored sport. He spoke for the black
voters of the country. Col. Cobb was
was ruled off all the race tracks in the
country not long ago for queer practices,
but we are pleased to see that he is still
in good standing on the quarter-stretch
of the Republican party.
Sheriff Blakely informs us that he is
on the lookout for all those who are
killing game in violation Of the law, and
says that all infractions will be prosecuted
to the extent of the law. We trust that
this will be sufficient to deter any from
attempting to violate the law. tits high
time that it was enforced, and we trust
all good citizens will aid the sheriff in
every possible manner.
In this issue will he seen the advertise
ment of Messrs. Huntley & Clark, River
side Stock Farms. It will be seen that
these gentlemen have some noted horses
in their stables, and those who are desir-
GUS of improving their stock of horses
would do we'll to interview these gentle
men. We can assure them that they will
give satisfaction. The people Of this val
ley in particular should pay good deal
of attention to the breeding of fine
stock.
John Mcmahon, of Livingston, was re-
leased from the county Jail this morning.
1t will be remembered he was sentenced
last fall for SIX months and fine of
$500, and to stand committed until the
fine was paid. 1t was thought at the
time to be a hard sentence, and his
former good behavior, and since he
has been in prison, has led the judge to
allow him $500 per day during his con-
finement, to 60 towards extinguishing
the fine. We are glad of this, as he has
q family, who are dependent upon him
and from all accounts is considered
good citizen.
The Northwest comes to us this month
with handsome cover, upon which the
chief industries of the great northwest
are pictured by well-fnished engravings.
First comes Minnesota with a picture of
its deep crystal lakes, filed with almost
every variety of the finny tribe, as food
made sweet by the cold spring water;
then comes Dakota with its extraordin-
ary wheat farms; then Montana with
her cattle and cowboy, her mines and
marvellous scenery while Washington
territory and Oregon are represented by
steam ships and gigantic trees.

We understand that the cabins of VIM.
Hamilton, John Anderson, Hubbell and
Mcdonald was burned by the Grow In
dams about one week ago. The cabins
are situated on the head of the Saltwater,
and from our information, are not on the |
Crow reservation. The parties were alb
sent when the act was committed, else it
would have taken a whole tribe of the |
devils to have accomplished their pur-
pose. 1t is said that an employe of the |
