Of railroads That which he with difas
Guilty produces, brings him a very mea-
ger compensation. For instance, eggs
five cents per dozen, butter three cents
per pound; he raises from five to fifteen
bushels OF wheat to the acre. and OBJ
tains for it at the railroad, 40 to AS cents
per bushel, and so it IL down the whole
list Of farm productions. On the other
hand, he pays as much for his groceries
and necessary clothing as we in Mon
tana; his fuel costs him So to S13 per ton,
and, adding to all of this he lives in
land unbounded with anything in nature
to crafty or please the eye. In summer
he is surrounded by nyriads of mosqui-
toes, and in winter by the desolate drear-
mess of excessive cold. and the dire and
dreadful blizzard, which, with the force
OF tornado, fills the air with binding
snow, making it impossible to venture
forth, oft-times for days. This is not an
unreal picture of the prairie composing
not all, but vast portion of Dakota.
Let us look at the other picture by plac-
ing them side by side, and conscientious
ly draw your conclusions as to which
presents the brighter view:
in mountainous Montana fuel can be
had for the cutting, while vast coal fields
exist in every portion of its domain.
Wood is sold to those who buy it for 81
to 5 per cord, coal from $3.50 to So per
ton. Groceries and clothing are no
higher here than in Dakota, while our
farmer at this time of year GETS IS to As
cents per dozen for eggs, almost the
same per pound for butter; for oats he
receives from Sl.35 to $3.50 per cwt and
other cereals in proportion. The soil,
composed of the rich washing of the
mineral mountains, is very rich and
everlastingly 30, yielding him, year after
year, under natural conditions, from 30
to go bushels of cereals per acre. His
cattle range without expense on the
mountain sides, in close proximity; his
lew lands are covered with a luxuriant
growth of the most nutritious grasses
known, which, when converted into hay,
bring from $40 to 500 per ton. Protected
0y the high mountain ranges and visited
by the warm, balmy Chinook" winds of
the Pacific, his winter life enables him
to procure his winter fuel and fencing.
Such is the picture that Montana farm
ers-at least those of the Gallatin valley
can hold up to the view of their Da-
kota brethren and truthfully say: mine
is an enviable lot" Let the farmers of
this section, in view of these facts,
which by no means fully or exhaustive
ly do justice to the subject, make up
their minds to provide for themselves a
comfortable home and a valuable herit-
age for their posterity.

A Mining Decision.

An important naming decision has
lately been rendered BY Justice Field OF
the United States supreme court in which
he defines what shall constitute the end
lines ola lode mining claim. The Justice
says: IF the first locator will not or
can not make the explorations necessary
to ascertain the trus course of the vein,
and draws his end lines ignorantly, h.
must bear the consequences. He can
only assert lateral right to &c much of
his vein as liea between vertical plains
drawn through those lines. Junior loca-
tors will not be prejudiced thereby
through subsequent explorations may
show that he has erred in his location.
"The provision Of the statute that the
locator is entitled throughout their en-
tire depth to all the veins, lodes and
lodges, the top or apex of which lie in
side the surfare lines of his location,
tends strongly TO show that the end lines
marked on the ground must control. It
often happens that the top or apex Of

Important II it Holds Water.

A Laramie, Wyoming, special to the
Salt Lake Tribune says One ofthe most
important decisions ever rendered in
this territory was delivered here to-day
by Hon. Jacob B.. Blair sitting as United
States judge. The case was that of the
United States vs.. J. B. Simpson, indicted
at this term of court for perjury on two
counts. Simpson had taken up home
stead entry in the state of Wisconsin,
afterward ommuted it to the cash entry
moved to this territory and entered a
homestead here, swearing in proving up
that he had never made homestead en-
try prior to the one made in this terri
tory. The point involved was whether
or not the homestead entry made in
Wisconsin, afterwards committed, ex-
hausted his rights under the homestead
law. Judge Blair instructed the jury
that Simpsons entry in Wisconsin did
not exhaust his rights under the home
stead law, and re-entering in this terri
tory he did not commit perjury. This
is the first time the question was ever
raised in the courts of this territory, and
as far as known, the first time ever Iais.
ed. The case attracted much attention.
Judge Blair's opinion is long and tx
haustive. The rights of settlers under
various land laws are fully discussed.
The decision meets with general approx.
al, the members ofthe bar especially ex-
pressing satisfaction.

TOWnslIe and Mineral PATENTS.

Secretary Lamar has written letter
to Commissioner Sparks of the general
land Office, that will reverse the practice
of that bureau in issuing patents for
mining claims. 1t has been the practice
of the department in granting patents
covering lodes or mining claims that in
terfere with townsite claims, to give sur
face improvements and betterments to the
townsite claimants. In the case of Due
fenbach VS.. Hawke, the supreme court
decided that the fee simple to the
ground was indivisihle and included the
surface as we'll as the subterranean pos
sessions. On October 25tt., Commissioner
Sparks addressed letter to Secretary
Lamar, stating the practice of the de-
partment. citing the decisions of the
court and asking for instructions. The
secretary replied that the decision of the
court must be followed and conveyances
made to lode claims including the sur
face improvements.

Effort TO Compromise DIfrsrences


A strong effort will be made during this
session to effect compromise of the diff
ference between the Senate and House
on the Northern Pacific land gram
forfeiture bills. The delay and doubt o
pending legislation has effected the sale
of lands by the road, and its officers are
anxious to dispose of all controversy
which effects titles. The Senate bill
forfeits certain lands in Oregon and
Washington territory. while the House
bill covers all west of Bismarck, to which
point the road was finished within the
time specified by the grant The North
ern Pacific people will not say what they
are willing to agree upon, but they have
said they would not contest the Senate
bill in the event of.its becoming a law.
A recent decision of the supreme court
has established beyond all controversy
that land forfeitures on the basis of de-
lay in completion of road viii not be
withheld, and for this reason the House
may now be more favorablY disposed
than heretofore.

GlTe US statehood

The question of statehood in Montana
opens up large field for speculation and
involves collateral issue known to CON
greSs as the admission of Washington
territory. Now, the facts are that Wash
ington territory is republican Charley
Voorhees, was elected simply on the
anti Northern Pacific platform. There
is nothing in the vote of the agriculture
al territory to show that it is democratic
whereas there is everything to show that
the territory of Montana is democratic
in every essential particular. 1t has car
ried the lower house and majority on
joint ballot and made square stand of
on the county Offices, Notwithstanding
the fact that number of county CAPT.
tai and county division contests entered
into the fight for supremacy, which will
be recorded as a great issue between the
parties.
The fact Is, the whole struggle has
been based on the statehood issue, and
there is every reason why dominant de-
mocracy should carry its point, and any
man in the territory of Montana who
takes diffrept view of the situation is
no friend to this grand territory. Upon
this great issue of statehood the Inde-
pendent stands with all of the power it
can command among its constituency

mains ofMail Agent c. NJ. Tennis, yester-
day heard testimony from all the train
men and brought in a verdict that he
came to his death through the negligence
and unskillfulness of the company's serv-
ants but that the extenuating circum-
stances were such that the train dispatch

responsible. The action of Engineer
E. G. Sualey sticking to his engIpe and
