TIE LAND STEALS.


The New York Times in q recent issue re.
ferring to Ex-Governor McCook's able letter
to the President on the subject OF leasing
the Indian lands, says that it was the at
tempt Of a group Of Chicago spectators to
get hold Of the Grow reservation that first
! directed the attention to the subject OF In
dian leases, and adds that Ex-Governor Nc
Cook might have made his letter even more
forcible by placing in it a history Of the ras-
cality practiced in connection with the at
tempt to lease the Grow lands.
This leads the Billings Gazette to make
the following comment: sIt certainly is
gratifying to know that the efforts OF our
citizens in combating the Crow lease, and
ip throwing the light OF day into the dark
and mysterious ways of the Colorado con-
spirators, have resulted, not only in thwart-
ing the lease. but in drawing the attention
of Congress to the abuses existing generally
in the matter of leases in the various Indian
reservations OF the United States. Large
oaks from little acorns grow and now it
appears that the vigorous protest OF the
Billings Board of Trade against the Crow
lease will result in u general o~verturning Of
Indian leases in the whole country"
That the land office of the Interior De-
partment is rotten to the core is known to
every prominent politician and newspaper
man who has spent any time in Washing
tom. A prominent gentleman, speaking to
the writer in Washington last winter, said:
1.-THE most rotten department under Re-
publican administrations the Interior and
the most putrid spot in that is the land
office. Mr.. Teller has been the tool, ave,
apparently the willing accomplice of every
l~and-grabber in the country. His decisions
have been most outrageous. He may be
an honest man, but if he is no one who
knows anything would believe it.. He
should have made at least 5000, 900"
This is the sentiment that pervades the
entire country. 1t is the clear duty Of
Mr.. Lamar to cause a thorough investiga-
ton to be made into the conduct OF the
land office. Let in the light, so that the
may be laid bare and steps taken to
assure the return of the millions OF stolen
acres to the public domain.

AN AGED FARMER MURDEHI ED
Shot Down by a Youth, Aided by His
Father, Without Apparent Or tase.

RICHMOND, Mo-, July 16.-A dastardly
outrage was committed on Monday at Lis
t%onville, a small town on the extreme north
east end OF this (Ray) county, an old farm
er named Gray being the victim. Early in
the evening Gray anne to Listonville and
entered the only mill in the town. Jesse
Mcdonald and his father were sitting in
front OF a store near by. The young man
said to his father: "There's old Gray and
l am going to kill him."
Gray came out OF the mill and passed
near the McDonald's, when the young man
said: "1f you knew o near you were to
the grave you would tremble. You nave
one foot in it now, and I intend to put the
other one in Also
Gray stopped and asked Mcdonald what
he had said, and the latter repeated the
words and finished by applying a vile cpl
tibet to Gray, who reached down and seized
a stone and threw it at the youth. Nc
Donald Immediately drew a pistol and fired
twice. Both bullets took effect in Gray's
right breast. The wounded man fell to the
ground dying. The elder Mcdonald struck
the dying man twice on the head with a
stick. Gray only lived a few moments. No
one attempted to arrest the murderers,
and they escaped and have not yet been
captured.

THE sEMI-WEEKLY MINER. BUTTE MONTANA JULY Ia155o

A CORRESPONDENT writing from New York
calls attention to the fact that young wo-
men with talent are in demand for the
stage. The leading ladies Of New York,
though not exactly verging on the sere and
yellow, have long since passed the mature
and are pushing the middle aged stage
OF existence pretty hard. Rose Coghlan,
Sarah Jewett, Clara Morris, Ida Vernon,
Caroline Hill and Agnes Booth, are
individually and collectively, women
OF rare and radiant accomplishments, en-
bellished at times by chrustating flashes OF
genius and that they are statuesquely and
Individually beautiful; but they can't play
young girls naturally under any circum-
stances. This may be because they can't
remember SO far back, or it may be the re-
suit of the increase OF adipose tissue; but
at all events, they neither look nor play
the characters which they 81 often and
blandly assume That's why there is room
on the stage for a woman who is willowy
and young.

RUNNING AWAY TO BE MARRIED..
A Farmers Daughter Takes a Husband
and then Asks forgiveness.

UNION HILL, N. j., July 16.-Farmer Her
man Lockhaus in May last employed Fred
erick Wagner to assist him on his farm.
Wagner is young and good looking, and
Lockhaus liked him very much and treated
him almost as a member of the family.
| Mr.. Lockhaus has a good looking daughter
named Amelia, who had just passed her
18th year. In the evening after working
hours, Wagner generally sought Amelia's
company. The young people became fond
Of each other, but for some reason they
thought Mr.. Lockhaus would oppose their
marriage, and so they didn't tell him their
plans.
On last Monday Wagner received a
months wages, and in the evening he disap-
peared. The next day Amelia also disap-
peared. Yesterday, sticking in the frame
OF a looking glass in Amelia s room, farmer
Lockhaus found this note:
DEAR PARENTS: Fred and | nave gone
away to get married. We love each other,
and as we thought father wouldnotco consent
to our marriage, we decided to run away.
Ii you will forgive us let Henry Schaak
know and he will tell Fred. Please forgive
your AMELIA.
Henry Schaak, who is a friend of young
Wagner, says the bridal couple are in
Brooklyn. Farmer Lockhaus told Schaak
that he would forgive his daughter, and
they are expected to return to the old
farmhouse.

WASHINGTON, july 16.-A fire broke out
tonight in the building occupied by the
Daily Post, National Republican, Washing
ton Critic, Sunday Gazette, the United
States Electric Light Company, and several
other tenants. The editorial, composing
and press rooms OF the four papers are
completely ruined, and the business Offices
are flooded with water. The building was
owned by Stilson Hutchings. It was
valued at $50, 600, and was insured. The
Post and Republican used the same
press, valued at $40, 900; insured for
$4,000. The Critic press was valued at
$4,000; insured. In the basement was a
$4,000 press, owned by Ex-Secretary
Chandler. The plates and 5000 copies OF
Stilson Hutchings new book, "Washington,
Past and Present." are a total loss. The
Gazette is owned by Thomas S. Morrow,
whose loss is not heavy. The totalE.loss
will reach $15O,O0O, about two-thirds OF
which is covered by insurance. The
Evening Star at once rendered the use OF
it's office to the Post and Republican and
their papers will be issued without inter-
ruption.

The Washington Post has the following
to say Of the appointment of Mr.. Hauser
as Governor Of Montana: "Some OF Mr..
Ceveland's appointments owe their pecu-
liar %luster, not only to the eminent fitness
Of the appointees, but in a still greater de-
gree to the notorious unfitness OF the place
holders removed. In this category must
be placed the appointment OF Mr.. Samuel
T. Hauser as Governor of Montana, vice
B. Platt Carpenter, removed. The ap-
pointment was in every way a fit one. Mr..
Hauser is a banker and business MAI of
Helena, Montana, where he is highly es-
teemed. In the first place, by selecting Il
citizen OF the Territory for Governor, the
President has given another signal assur-
ance that he intends to abide by the plat
form on which he was elected. In the
second and more important particular,
the action OF Mr.. Cleveland in removing B.
Platt Carpenter from the Governorship
takes rank as one of the best acts OF his
administration. Carpenter was appointed
a few weeks before the expiration Of Presi-
dent Arthur's term of office, to succeed
Hon Schuyler Crosby, who briefly orna-
mented the First Assistant Postmaster

can dissolution preceding the 4th of

Gallatin county and plenty of heavy wheat
and oat crops will be harvested in the
county this year that will not have re-
ceived a drop of moisture other than what
the heavens have vouchsafed. We doubt
whether a like experience has been recorded
in the history Of the Territory. Is this un-
usual rainfall a mere fortuitous circum-
stance or is it directly due to the settle
ment and development OF the country?

EVERY American respects Mr.. Lowell as
q literary man, says the Chicago Herald,
but very few have a very high regard for his
d;plomatic talents. That he should have
won great social distinction was natural,
for he is superior, as is every other culti-
waited American, to the people that consti-
tute English society. There cannot be any
very great degree of refinement and culture
among people who think more OF their titles
than they do OF their brains. Refinement
and culture in England is confined to aclas
the literary class; and the literary class
has very little time to parade in English
society.
