In Helena for Repairs.

Vim. Billiard, one of the best known as
well as the best cow-punchers in all Mon
tana, who is well known to many of the
TRIBUNE readers, is in Helena, receiving
medical treatment for . gun-shot wound
received at the hands of one Hanscot, in
Benton twenty-five years ago. The wound
was in his back just above his left hip.
The bullet, which at the time could not be
exactly located, taking a course straight
through his body, was extracted, and ever
since that time the wound has broken out
afresh at intervals. Recently the bullet
after a quarter of a century of repose in
Bills vitals, manifested an inclination to
come to the surface, and in accordance

Cattle and Ranges.

j. Kennedy, OF Kennedy& Kelly, cat
tie men of Fort Benton, Mont, arrived in
st. Paul recently with $50 head of cattle
which he shipped East. Of the Montana
ranges Mr.. Kennedy said:
In the Yellowstone country the grass is
scant and in our country the grass and
water are both short, but the cattle are in
good condition and look just as we'll as
they did last year. The drouth has been
severe and a few are driving their cattle
eastward, bat I do not anticipate a hard
winter. It has always been my expert
enee that when we had a dry ummer an
open winter followed. The shorter the
grass the easier the snoa drifted off of it.
There are still a great number of cattle
on the ranges to be shipped East this fall

p%earanee yet among our cattle.-Ptoneer

any occasion for it. This is the first
campaign in Choteau county since
the Great Falls TRIBUNE was estab-
lished. As soon as the issues were
joined by the nomination Of the OPP
posing candidates, the TRIBUNE de
clared for J.. K. Toole, because we be
lieve that his election viii result III
the most good to the people Of Great
Falls and Northern Montana. We
will ever be found fighting for the
community in which we live. The
observer fellow tries to make out
that We have been boycotted for tax
ing a stand for Toole and the demo
cratic ticket. If he viii take the
trouble to come into our Office or send
some n as his representative we
will show him that our List Of sub
scribers has increased faster than
ever before, since we made oar poll

TIE o compos mentis who has
been trying to fabrieate falsehoods to
send from Great Fails to the Sanders
organ at Helena, has been so frighten-
ed by the expressions Of disgust from
his fellow-townsmen that he has drop
ped'the nom de plum Of "Choteau' and
is now hiding under the cloak of lob
server" He claims to have made a
canvas Of the voters of Great Falls
and made the startling discovery that
there are 125 republicans in this town
who would vote for Sanders. In the
first place there are not over fifty re-
publieans in town and not over half a
dozen Of them will cast a vote for the
n. P. delegate. This observer bun
kun steerer knows that he is stating
an untruth. The people Of Great
Falls, regardless Of party are going
to vote for the interests of the com
mnnlty in which they live. They
know that Toole can and will do more
for US than anyone else. This fellow
who calls himself observer alias
''Choteau" speaks Of the TRIBUNE as
the "Great Falls Nondescript." We
don't suppose the ignorant peryerter
Of facts knows what that word means,
but we take it to insinuate that u
political position is not known or
classified. If he has been reading
the TRIBUNE since the campaign open
ed he must be willful prevaricator or
else cannot understand plain English.
We are not bought or owned by any
person or any party. His insinua-
ttion that we are hired for the cam
jpaign is one of those old Wormy
echestnuts which is not worthy Of be-
ing cracked. The reason why the
TRIBUNE had not before announced its
politics is that there had never been

Indian Raiders.

BENTON, Oct. 16th.-Thomas Bevans,
whose horses were stolen from Pen
d'Oreille Springs a few weeks ago has
just returned from Fort Macleod, where
he succeeded in recovering them, through
the kindness of Captain Posey, head of
the Mounted Police. He says that not
w~ithstanding reports to the. contrary,
Blood Indians are daily crossing the line.
On his return home he met five Piegans
with several Indian horses, which they
said were stolen from the Crows.
The Blood Indians at Macleod told him
of a party of white men camped in the
Porcupine hills, near Macleod, were pur-
chasing stolen horses from the Indians
and were doing a thriving business.

Botkin meant when he said at the Butte
convention that Montana did not need a
man like Sanders.

constitution he is no good.

A Foot Race for $1,000

The Eureka (Nev) Sentinel says
Several sporting characters and a resi-
dent of White Pine county arranged a
foot race that was to take place on Main
street at 7 o'clock October 4ti4. Five
hundred dollars in coin was put up by
the White Finer On his man. A like
amount was promptly produced by the
opposition. The hour for the race arriy-
ed, but the White Piner, it is alleged
was not on hand with his man, and in &C
cordance with sporting rules, the other
racer walked over the course and then
claimed the stakes of s LOCO, which he OBJ
tanned. Later in the day both the foot
racer who walked over the course and
the n who failed to do so were arrested
The arrest, as WI understand it, is in the
interest of the White Piner, who claims
that he was illegally deprived Of his $500.

tlenrY G. sanborn.
Writer for tie Tribune:

Written for the Tribune:
The death of one like Henry G. Sanborn,
so well and favorably known to many res
idents Of Northern Montana, calls for more
than a passing notice. Mr.. Sanborn was
born in New Hampshire about 1852; pre-
pared for college at the New Hampton In
stltute, q famous Institution Of learning;
entered the academical department of
Dartmouth college in 1870 and graduated
in 1874. While in college he had been
principal of the Lancaster Academy, IN.
ID and after graduation, accepted a posi-
ton in Placeryille Academy, in California.
In both places he speedily enaeaEcd him
self to his pupils and associates by his ge-
NAL ways and kind, though firm treatment.
Ambitious to see the world he went to
Australia il 1915 and engaged III the sheep
business. Long droutls came on and he
sold out his interest i'll 1879, and through
his college classmate, II. =. Rolfe. Esq.
he am to Northern Montana where the
sheep industry was then just beginning to
promise large returns. After q year spent
in learning the business as practiced in
Montana, Ill company with Capt. Mcintosh
he took sheep on shares on the Little Belt,
about 30 miles from Great Falls. The hard
winter Of 'S0-9f, and the mining excitement
induced himself and partner to 60 to the
Barker and Neihart mines where they met
the usual experience of pioneers in new
mines. For four years they struggled
against every Encouragement. Finally
their hardsiips and labors met with sue
cess. He sold his interest in the Montana
Belle and st. Julien mines to the Hill
BroadHater syndicate for a large sum; re-
tanning many other valuable interests; re-
turned to California in April, 1885. and
was married the 9Th Of May following to
Miss Agnes j. Bryant, a young lady of
great literary talent and accomplishments
OF Diamond Springs. Their engagement
and marriage bordered on the realms of
romance. He was her teacher ten years
previous and while she learned the mod
ern language she learned the ancient Ian
guage Of love, and during all the long
years of his absence and with his struggles
with fortune, she had been constant and
waited with patience for the coming Of her
prince. Here he engaged in the lumber
business, enjoying much happiness in the
pleasures of his home, until his death on
Sept. 10Th last. He was one of lofty aims
and high principles; kind and generous to
a fault, modest, never making d display of
his attainments though possessed of great
ability, as his intimate friends were we'll
aware and there was that about him which
won the respect and admiration of all who
knew him. He had no enemies. Wheth-
er among his college mates and pupils or
among the rough stockmen or miners of
either side of the Rockies or in distant
Australia, everywhere he might be he
made friends and wherever, among all the
lands his feet have trod, the news Of his
being cut down in early manhood, shall go,
there will be sorrow for the loss Of a kind,
generous, true hearted friend.

Sanders Getting Solid With the Indian

A gentleman from Dakota, recently
wrote to Mr.. Turner, the popular night
clerk Of the Grand Central, Helena, 70
know if there was any danger of the stage
between Helena and Great Falls being
stopped by the Indians and the passengers
massaered. After giving the desired infor-
nation, Mr.. Turner faeetiously turned the
letter into politics which is the subject of
greatest interest nowadays. Following
is the letter:
HELENA, Mont, Sept. 80, 1886
W. W. F.,
Dear sir:-The stage leaves for Crest
Falls daily. The Indians are bad. The
good Indians are all dead. Some Black
feet were on the war-path last week; some
whisky was shed but no blood. Col. Bald
win, their agent, has given orders to the
store-keeper to give each Indian a bar of
o and a towel. It is hoped that they
will soon become white men thereby. A
few days ago, Major Roman, agent of the
Flatheads, gave positive orders that no
bald-headed men should be scalped. Col.
Sanders, our republican nominee for con-
gress, has gone to the reservation with a
big jug of fire-water, sweetened with su-
gar, furnished by the Northern Pacific
railroad. --latest advices by pony express
say that he has arrived at the tepee Of
Observation-Disclosures and there held
a big pow-wow. He has promised each
buck a farm and a white man to work it, if
| they will vote for him and he succeeds in
being elected to congress. We hope that
this settles the Indian problem. Come on,
you are safe in Montana now. We shall be
glad to see you. K. d r.
