of Bozeman and the County generally, to
solicit $1,000 additional subscriptions to
its capital stock (unassessable. This
action is taken to secure a Gallatin

ROD AND GUN CLUB.

The first shoot of the Rod and Gun
club occurred last Tuesday evening on
their new grounds at the head of Black
street. There was a large number Of
spectators present. A strong cross wind
interfered somewhat with the shooting.
Peoria blackbirds thrown from two traps
were used. The following Is the score:
]. W. Besserer, 4; C. Il Cobb, 5; D. G.
Silliman, 8; Thos. Murphy, s; D. Cooper,
/; w. B. Benham, 6; G. L. Bishop, 3;
Billy Black, 4; w. A. lines, 8; J. Luce, 4;
H. L. Smith, Z; S. G, R, Hamilton, 8; E.
B. Lamme, 5. Purse shoot five Peoria
blackbirds.-C. L. Bishop, 2; ]. w. Bes-
serer, 8; G. H. Cobb, 8; E. B. Lamme, 8;
Thos. MurDhy, 4; J Luce, ]; VIM. Black,
2; D. 6. Silliman, 8; D. Cooper, 4; W. A.
lines, 3; W. B. Benham, 8; S. c. R. Ham
ilton, 5.
Hamilton wins first money. Murphy
and Cooper shot off for second, Cooper
winning. Besserer. Cobb, Lamme, Sill
man, lines and Benham shot off for
third, Benham winning.
From the above it will be seen that
Murphy wears the gold badge for tee
week, while Cooper dons the leather.
Cooper, who by the way is the Youngest
of the club, mere boy, proved
himself to be an excellent shot in the
purse contest, and received second
amid the cheers of the spectat-
ors.
After the contest the members of the
club met at Cooper's armory and dis
eussed matters regarding the protection
Of game and fish in this county, The
club is an excellent institution.

The citizens Of Cooke City are I'M
thankful if they do not pass resolutions
of gratitude to the Billings Gazette for
its Republication of articles such as en-
anate from the Forest and Stream, Mr..
Arnold Hague and Mr. Hallett Phillips
antagonistic to the Cooke City railroad,
Mr.. Hague and Mr.. Phillips have ex-
pressed themselves to the miners of
Cooke in no uncertain terms, favoring
the building of the road At Washing
ton they have changed their tune.
Consistency, etc." is hardly strong
enough to use in connection with their
names; downright falsifying mildly ex-
presses it. Notwithstanding this, the
people of Cooke are or ought to be
thankful to the Billings paper for keep
ing them so well informed as to the
utterances of those against the project
which promises SO much for Cooke.

STAND BIZ YOUR GUNS.

The territorial papers are beginning TO
gently agitate the political question and
are clearing their decks for the coming
engagements. A few, of course have
not yet decided upon which side they
will do battle, but before the conflict
thickens will be foremost in the fight.
A newspaper that can be independent
in politics in times Of peace but during
election be the strongest kind of part

this sort of a newspaper is good proper

nounced politics is left to take care Of

which it fights. If they want an Office.

Montana journalism, and at this early
date we earnestly ask republicans and
democrats to stand BY theirparty papers.

A rumor about the Capital, to the eff
feet that any further raids upon the
Treasury would be combatted by the
Presidents veto, created considerable
sensation. President Cleveland is the
first President, it is said, who has I'M
dertaken to sctutinize private bills. But
he became alarmed at the reckless way
Congress was rushing the pension bust
ness. A fortnight ago the Senate alone,
in one day, passed over $50 such bills,
after merely reading their titles This
hurried and careless way oftaking money
out of the National Treasury struck the
President as eminently improper, and
he began sending to the Pension Office
for the records in order to satisfy his
mind concerning each of the cases which
have thus far come before him. 1t is
perhaps, no more than the Presidents
duty, but it is duty which has rarely
been performed; and the question is,
where Mr.. Cleveland is going to find the
time for the pursuit of his excellent
noliry

A sensation was raised in the Govern
ment Departments in Washington during
the week. The Executive Appropriation
ton bill, as just reported to the House
of Representatives, has not provided for
225 Government clerks, and consequently
the force must be cut down to that extent.
Republicans are panic stricken again, of
course, and every Republican Office
holder feels that his time for dismissal
has come Besides these changes, others
areIcontemplated, which involve reduc-
ton of salaries among Government
employees. In the Department of the
Interior the changes go both ways. The
force Of the Patent Office is increased;
that of the Pension Bureau decreased.
Thirty nine more Examiners and eight
assistants are added in the former while
in the latter the clerical force will be
reduced $50.

The attention Of Postmaster Whitney
of Billings is called to the fact that COM
plant is being made by people along the
mail route from Billings to the Wyoming
line. They claim that letters reaching
Billings on Sunday night for these re-
mote points, are not sent out by the
weekly mail next morning, but remain
in the post Office one week. We trust
that this matter will be looked into by
the postmaster and the fault remedied.

Speaking Of his request for increased
force, the Commissioner of Patents said
that the work of examining applications
for patents is very much behind. and
inventors have been compelled to wait

fore their applications could be reached
for the first examination. There are
twenty five examining divisions in the
Patent Office, some of which are nine
months in arrears, and the result is that
many inventors suffer in consequence
of delays in getting their patents. Com
missioner Montgomery claims that with
this additional force he can, in a short
time, bring the work up practically to
date, and then keep it up. The U. S.
Patent Office is not only self supporting,
but now turns into the Treasury, through
fees, yearly surplus of $4,000.

Genl. Phil Sheridan has taken up the
cudgel against the right-of-way bill
through the Park, arguing that it would
destroy Its beauty. The General forgets
that In 1882 he made trip over this
Identical portion of the Park, in order to
AVOID observation, and that he unlaw-
fully shot large AMOUNT of game. The
General can truthfully say that he has
been over the ground, but he is one of
the lew tourists that can or ever will say
50. That portion of the Park is entirely
void of all natural curiosities and is of
no benefit whatever to the Park.

In view of the fact that Judge Nc
Leary of Texas, lately appointed to the
bench of this district, has failed to an
nounce the date Of his coming, or
written to anyone in this district, it is
barely possible that he does not intend
to come at all. According to reports he
has large and lucrative practice at
home, and it is doubtful whether he cares
to come to Montana at salary of $4,000
per wear.
