SMUGGLING IN CHINAMEN.-Thef following,
from the Portland Oregoaia1,, will give an
idea of what it costs to get Cinnamon across
the British Columbia boundary;
Although it is well understood that par
ties are engaged in the business of snug
Cling Cinnamon into this country from
Victoria, contrary to the provisions of the
Restriction Act, probably very few have
met a Chinaman who would acknowledge
that he came in herein this manner. A few
days since a Chinaman who has worked for
several years for a First street barber told
his employer that he had a cousin coming
over from Victoria who had never been in
this country before, and who had paid. a
white man $40 for being run in. The
contraband' arrived here on schedule
time, and is now looking for Il Job An
OreqoHiaH reporter who heard of the cir
cumstance attempted TO find out Just how
the thing was done, but upon making in
quiry of the cousin of the - import as to
what kind of craft the latter came over in
he aroused the suspicious of the celestial.
who. after asking, What's natter" re-
lapsed into 4 state OF dense knownOthing-
ISM which clothed him like a garment, and
which was impervious to all assaults. The
fact remains that Cinnamon are being run
in here on schedule time, and this makes
one reflect on the changes which take place
i'll this great and glorious country. Not so
very long since the sable sons of Africa
were being expedited out Of this land of
liberty, and were risking their lives and
what of liberty they enjoyed to get across
the line into the British possessions. Now
yellow sons of Asia are putting up their
last dollar to be expedited across the line
from British soil into this land of liberty,
which is free to all Of human birth except
themselves. What new wrinkle the next
twenty years may develop in regard to get
ting into or out of this country remains to
be seen. This is a queer world, anyway, and
there are but few who get out of it alive

Getting Even

This is the way our friends across the
range get in their fine work on the Bill
ings people, in return for said B p. hav-
ing asked for slice of Gallatin county,
and thereby defeating their well laid di.
vision schemes: A committee OF citizens
of Livingston, which investigated the
facts connected with executive lease Of
lands in the Crow Indian reservation,
have sent report to the Secretary of the
Interior, in which they certify on hon
or" that although several Indians testi-
fed substantially that they signed the
Blake Wilson cattle lease, because they
feared their rations would be stopped, if
they did not, yet what the Indians real
ly meant to say was, that the lease was
under consideration; the clerk at the
Grow agency explained to all the In
dams that the government rations would
be exhausted about April LIST, and if the
lease was perfected money obtained
could be used to buy beef TO subsist
them until the end of the fiscal year,
and that they, the Indians, upon these
representations, through fear of short
rations, or no rations at all after April,
signed the lease. In view of these facts
the committee are satisfied that neither
Agent Armstrong nor any of his en-
ployes did anything inconsistent with
their official duty or personal integrity
to induce any Indian to sign the Blake
Wilson lease.

He Needs His Elevator.

The following characteristic letter is
from former Bozemanite and explains
itself:
"When | departed from your beautiful,
fascinating and picturesque village for
the CHur d'Alene country, in February
last, / left an Elevator" in the closet
under the stairway 1t is large casting,
with wheel, etc. l expected, when the
order went East for this piece of mechan-
ism, to hoist barrels of whisky above in
the billiard room; but as you are aware,
my dear friend, my brightest anticipa-
tons were blasted the hole was not cut
through the ceiling and great wheel not
put in motion. But can't dwell. 1t is

patched to Helena) to the fourth or fifth

the elevator to good advantage"

The Montana Central.

At a. late hour yesterday afternoon we
were shown copy of the proposed bill
enabling the counties of Gallatin and
Silver Bow to aid in the construction of
a railroad The directory composes
Nelson Story, Walter Cooper, Lester S.
Wilson, William w Anderson, James f..
Martin, John NJ. Sweeney. Henry Filing
Patrick A. Largely, Joseph K. Clark, Lee
Mantle and Ralph B. Wallace who agree
to pay expenses Of election. We regret
our inability to procure copy Of the bill
sooner, but will publish it in full next
week. From hurried reading Of it we
are inclined TO the belief that its provi-
sions are fair and reasonable and that the
county is CONSIDERABLY protected. In
fact the names of the directors should be
sufficient to guarantee the good intention
of the company However, next week
the CHRONICLE will give the matter a
careful and extended consideration.

STOCK NOTES.

Mr. !. L. Randall, of Gallatin county, in
a letter to the Helena Herald, gives his
views in favor OF horse association to
protect and advance the interests of this
important and growing industry in the
territory, as follows: That such an as
sociation, formed as other stock associa-
tions, should organize regular systematic
roundnps in the different districts, to com :
mence about the same time. That each
roundup should hold all branded straYs
found during the roundup in pasture, or
herd, for one month, during which time
they should be advertised IN all the lead
ing papeTs.in the territory. All horse
men who had lost horses would naturally
look for these advertisements ct the time
of year when it would be known that
they would appear, and would thus see
where their noTses were and get them.
The roundup could fix q price lay 81, so or

have a fair chance of recovering strays.
ANY surplus money might go toward
forming fund for building corrals in suit
able places, and for following up and pros
ecuting horse thieves. Unbranded strays
might be sold and the funds used as
might be determined by the associa-
ton. AS the matter stands now, there is
little or no chance for horsemen to re-
cover strays; and there are at the present
moment no small number of unclaimed
horses in the territory, number the
system roughly sketched. would be claim
ed and recovered by their respective
owners. The objects Of the association
should be briefly these:
l. To organize roundups in different
districts.
2. To endeavor by combined action, to
check horse stealing, which 10 now 80
prevalent.
8. To endeavor to improve the breed
Of horses in this territory; and by all and
every means in their power protect and

I, Architect Vreeland has shown us the
plans of new house to be erected by
Ed. Lamme in the early spring. The
building win be added to bis present
residence on the corner of Templar
Avenue and Babcock street. 1t win be
two stories IN height, of the old English
pattern so popular now both in this and
older countries. This house will be de-
cidedly the prettiest in Bohemian, and
add much to the reputation the town
has for homelike and handsome build
sings. Mr. Story. we have been inform
ed, viii also build handsome residence
in the spring, and other parties are hav-
ing plans prepared, Of which we cannot
as yet make public. 1t is predicted that
Bozeman will add many substantial and
handsome residences to its list Of inl-
proyements this year. The days Of
paste-board houses is past, and hereafter
the principal objection to our rigorous
climate is to be overcome by comfortable
habitations.

Legislative Matters.
HrLENA. NJ. T., Feb. %, 1885.

HELENA Nj. T.. Feb. Is, 1885.
During the past week nothing of great
Importance has transplred in either
branch Of the Territorial Legislature.
The gambling bill seems to have taken
up more time and attention than was at
first anticipated. Mr. Forbis of Butte is
an able champion of the bill and is
backed up by the Inter-Mountain of
Butte and many of its best citizens. In
opposition, Mr. DeWolf of the Council,
made a very strong and eloquent speech.
Outside Of Butte, where so many of the
workingmen are enticed into gambling
away their wages, the people of the
Territory, take no great interest i'll the
fight The greater portion of the press
believe that the bill would at this stage,
fall far short of Its purposes. Gambling
would be carried on in private and the
revenue so derived from licenses be lost.
1t is very evident that the bill in its
present shape win not become a law. 1t
asks for too much.
The Governor has not yet made public
the names of those whom he wishes to
hold the offices within his gift. 1t is I'M
derstoOd that he will soon do. so, but the
chances are that the present incumbents
win hold over until Democrats are APP
pointed.
1t is a prevalent idea here that all of
the division bills, except that creating
the county of Fergus, will be set down
upon by the council. The divisionists
have overdone the matter, and asked for
too many counties, which at the present
condition of our Territory and its people
is impracticable and unjust to those who
would be 5urdened by overtaxation,
merely to please set of Adventures,
seeking office, or increase the 3 boom " in
in property.
/ Yellowstone county hobs up serenely"
| with arge number of bills calculated
to aid billings. One is for the incorpor-
alton Of the town, or a portion of where
the town is supposed to reach. Also for
the building of court house, and the at
tachment Of that part of the Crow reser-
! walton suon to be thrown open, to Yellow
stone county.
A delegation of citizens from Gallatin
county, both for and against division
went before the House committee ON
Towns and Counties and argued the
matter Nelson Story and Mr.. Grannis
both OF whom have large interests in the
proposed county of Bridger, presented
the anti-side of the case and did it in an
able and convincing manner. In answer
to the question, what interest he had in
Livingston ?" Mr. Grannis replied Give
hundred dollars in bad debts The bill
will either be Tossed or passed by vote
of in the house.
Many of the new county officials have
been l.ere during the past two weeks
interviewing the legislative colleges re-
garding the proposed cutting down of
salaries Now that the sheriff has been
done for, it is presumed that none but the
Assessor " iiill be handled

Suicide of Mrs. Gordon.

AS intimated in the CHRONICLE of last
week, Mrs. Ida Clark Gordon, wife of
Mr. Gordon, the well-known Bozeman
musician, died on Tuesday night, from
the effect of two pistol wounds in her
breast, caused by herself with suicidal
intentions. Mrs. Gordon once before at
tempted to take her own life with poi
son, and is said to have inherited mel
ancholy disposition from her mother, at
times suffering intensely from mental
depression. The evening before killing
herself she attended the masquerade
bali in company with her husband
She is very well known in the valley,
where she lived as maiden, and was
married. She leaves little boy, eight
months old, and kind, considerate hus-
band, who has the heartfelt sympathy of
the entire community. Miss Clark was
an interesting contributor Of both prose
and verse to the local papers.

Il stood the Test

For the past two weeks coal from the
Mountain House mine has been shipped
in car load lots, almost daily, to the
smelters in Butte The coal was given
d fair and impartial test in the presence
of number of Butte men, who all PRO-
nounced it as good as that which they
have been accustomed to use, and were
united in sounding the praise Of Boze-
man coal, This settles question which
has long been an important enc and
demonstrates beyond contradiction the
value of our mines. Those who had The
coal sent away, did so at a great expense
to themselves, a. the freight rate and
transferring is enormously high.

Nothing but an Honorable Name.

A gentleman, in private letter to the

that dear old Gallatin is threatened by
the divisionists from four directions. and
if all the designs succeed she will have
nothing left but an honorable name. /
do not think, however, that the Territory
can spare the grand old county yet. She
has sustained an honorable and import
ant position for the past twenty years,
and all should say tNo, not yet For so
many years the border county, the shield
to sister counties from the incursions of
a savage foe, she ought to hold warm
place in the hearts of older settlers"
