The swelling in the neck of Gen Grant
has grown so large that 1t cannot be
examined except by feeling it from the
outside it being impossible for the gen.
eral to open his mouth wide enough to
be looked into without intense pain.
1t seems that the appointment of
young Beecher as customs collector for
the Puget Sound district does not meet
with the appreciation of the Demo
crdtic war horses and workers of that
locality. These gentlemen feel hurt to
find themselves given the go-by by a
president for whose election they labor
ed so hard, while a young mugwump
only has to open his mouth to have the |
uicy plum dropped INTO it. Apparently
the mugwump is not appreciated in the |
lar northwest.

The appointment of Mr.. Robert Kelly
OF Deer Lodge, as Marshal of the terri
tory seems TO give general satisfaction to
the Democratic press of the territory,
while the leading Republican organs at
once unfurled the "bloody Shirt" and
have since severely critized Mr.. Toole
for appointing an "unreconstructed."
While we do not enjoy the pleasure of a
personal mountaineering with Mr..
Kelly, we are reliably informed that he
Ii genial and competent gentleman,
who will give the Office a wise and use
full administration. We have heard it
rumored that his Democracy was to be
questioned, and that his nomination was
opposed by large number Ofthe leading
Democrats of the west side. But the
fact that he is SO Justify denounced by
Republicans is safe guarantee upon
which to base the opinion that he is one
of those uDfaltering Democrats so greatly
despised by Republican papers-especi-
ally one that has taken advantage of its
robustness to sieze and monopolize the
public teat.

teaches valuable lesson. The devast-
ing waters carrying away trees, bridges,
cabins, &c, would have also destroyed
the lives of several persons and wrought
much damage in Bozeman had it come

ditch owners intend to make up purse

all in their power to make amends for
the damage resulting from the carelessly
constructed dam. This is proper and
inasmuch as they did not suffer from
the iavages of the break, a very easy
matter for them to do.

rotary Robson investigated it, and in
1879 works were built to accommodate the

January Chandler advised the govern

Secretary Whitney learns that the pro-

J. Basinski & Bro, of Bozeman, on
Thursday of last week received over q
600 school books from Bancroft & Co, OF
San Francisco. These are the books
legalized by the "late lamented" legisla.
ture, and thereby adopted for exclusive
use in the public schools of the Territory
for the term of four years from the first
day of July 1885, oruntil changed in pur-
suance of law. We believe that it will
require $4,000 of these books to take the
place of others now in use and made ut
terly worthless by this unjust law and
piece of outrageous jobbery. During the
four years, at very conservative esti-
mate, it will necessitate the expenditure
of over 100000 by people who can not
afford it: This law also makes it the
duty of the Territorial Superintendent to
cause all prices of the text books as
guaranteed by the publishers, to be pro-
perly printed and distributed to the trus-
tees of the school districts, to be kept
constantly posted in CONSPICUOUS place
in the school room. This expense, Of
course, is to be borne by the territory.
The citizens ofthis territory can consider
themselves much abused people, and
should look closely into this robbing
scheme. Bancroft & Co. are certainly
not TO blame for enriehing their Golfers
in this manner, and if the law had been
created solely by their shrewdness, con-
gratulations instead of censure should be
heaped upon them. Those at home,
who aided and abetted this deep-laid
scheme are the men whom our injured
people should Lame and demand an ex-

The county commissioners at their

sary printing, where, in his Judgment. It
could be done for the best interests of
the county. This, Of course, is in direct
violation of their contract with the
CHRONICLE and the law. The ostensible
reason assigned for this action, was an
error which occurred in some blanks
printed by the CHRONICLE in the pub
fishers absence, and which have since
been reprinted at no cost to the county,
although the work was at the time duly
received and paid for The real cause is
to cripple, if possible, the democratic

How Cat Won, in Rattle, Cow for o
Poor and Needy Widow.
From the N. Y. Star,
Tom, a maltese cat belonging to
Nicholas Meade, who keeps hotel
at Passaic, is good dice thrower. A
rattle for q cow was recently arranged
in aid of woman whose husband was
killed by train of cars. Mr. Meade
took two chances, with the UNDER
standing that Tom should throw for
him. This was objected to at first,
because it was known that the cat
had won q horse aud several turkeys
10 previous raffies, and was consider
ed too lucky with dice. 1t was
finally arranged, however, that the
cat should throw.
The rattle was held in Meade's
Hotel on Tuesday night. Tom, who
is a great favorite with the customers,
was placed upon the table around
which sat the dice-throwers. The cat
watched the shaking of the dice-box
with interest. Moses Mulchnach, one
of the oldest mill bands of the town,
and an acknowledged expert at all
sorts of games was the first to throw.
He scored two skies and five. James
Ferns followed, and threw three
fves. These we're the highest points
until Toms turn came, when be lifted
up the dice-box In his paws and shook
it thoroughly. All eyes were fixed
upon the cat There was breathIess
silence. Finally Tom upturned the
box with sudden jerk, and out fell
three skies. The cat did not throw
again, as no one had matched bis
score Mr.. Meade says money can
not buy Tom, and d.that be is willing
to back him AGAINST all comers for
500. The cat is eight years old.
