INDIAN HORSE THIEVES.
Stolen stock Recovered and the Red
Thieves Arrested.
Benton Press.

Jake Hoover, who went ont with party
from Utica to pursue the Indians and re-
cover the horses stolen on the night of the
10Th inst, arrived at the agency few days
ago. The Indians were pursued so closely
that several horses were left at Dupuyer
and Hoover arrived at the agency almost
as soon as the Indians, where the stolen
horses were recovered and eight of the red
skins placed in confinement. For some un-
known reason three of them were relea sed,
but the other five were held.
The Indian Police Joined the other In
dians in demanding the release of the five
VINO were in confinement, and threats were
made that unless their demands were ac-
ceded to the whole Blood tribe would be
brought down to clean out the few soldiers
and whites. Fortunately Lieut.. Beacon,
Sd infantry, was at the agency, and in view
of the serious outlook of affairs he sent to
Fort Shaw for reinfOIcements.

THE attempts Of the opposition on the
stump, through the press and in private,
to arouse all the personal antipathies that
individuals have at various times felt on ac-
count of Col. Sanders free speech and in
dependent course Of action, are unworthy
and degrading both to those who use such
means and to those to whom they are ad-
dressed. Political contests should be
something more than field to crafty and
to glut personal revenge. We are appealed
to as if we were or could be political as
sassins. seeking time and opportunity for
revenge. 1t is not to be thought of by any
high-minded, self-respecting man. Those
are contemplate small souls that nurse
and harbor personal affronA and grievances
and devote their energies to study plans
and seek opportunities to slake their thirst
for vengeance. There is a nobler way even
to seek revenge than to play the hypocrite
and traitor. Let the dead past bury its
dead. When the noble Roman Emperor,
0A0ASuo AdASAAuS, vAoitCA holsh uAihOl, dllCl
an insurrection had been quelled, that threat
ened for time his imperial authority some of
his superserviceable adherents sought out
and brought to him correspondence that
implicated many of his trusted agents and
servants, but instead of reading a single
one of all these letters, he ordered the
whole to be burned forthwith and in his
sight. We are seeking something that con-
Germs US now and hereafter, that demands
all our time, all our heart and all our
thoughts. Montana, after having served in
patience and isolation her days of proba-
tion, is just feeling the strength of ap-
preaching maturity, and looks forward to
glorious career of Statehood. Let US go
forth to claim cur rights manfully, with
our ablest champion at our head, and let
us all so fight that at least we shall deserve
to win and when success comes we shall
then enjoy it.

RUMORS OF RESIGNATION.
Governor Hauser Alleged to be Con
tempIating Retirement from the
Executive Chair.

A Helena special to the Inter Mountain
dated yesterday says:
1T has been quietly rumored here to-
day that Governor Hauser contemplates an
early retirement from the executive chair
on account of his increasing private busi-
ness, which demands every minute of his
time. Col. Johnston and Major Maginnis
are mentioned for the successOrship.
Hauser has made very popular and pub
lie spirited Governor"
In order to verify the report, if possible,
HERALD reporter sought Governor
Hauser this morning at his Office, but
found that the Executive was absent and
at Wickes. Nothing authentic can be
ascertained from other sources.

GOVERNOR WARREN.
A Man who Defends his Territory and
People Egainst the Arch Enemy
Sparks.

Gov. Warren, of Wyoming, having
had his attention called to the Sparks
fulminations aimed at his report recently
said to representative of the Cheyenne
Sun:
"An examination of my report will
show that no favOrs are asked for cattle
men or land grabbers On the contrary,
the report is plea for the poor pioneer
settlers.
"In Wyoming but fifty-One land patents
or deeds have been delivered through land
offices in this Territory since January l,
1885. Of these, fifty were during 1885,
mainly in the first part of the year, and
only one in 1886, Notwithstanding the fact
that over 5000 entries were made during
this time, and corresponding num-
Der of entries had been made in previous
years.
1T was recommended that special agents
should examine every entry before or at
the time of proof to prevent fraud, and
proof being accepted, patent should inn
mediately issue in justice to bona fde set
tiers, as an sentry" is no title. whereas a
patent is, and the statement that immigra-
tion and development in Wyoming is re-
tarded by severe requirements exacted
from settlers, applies not only to entries
but final proof and issuance Of patents.
Although frequent charges of wholesale
and indiscriminate fraud have been reiter-
ated, not one conviction has been had in
the Territory, Notwithstanding the con-
slant attendance of special land agents"
Governor Warren says that fifty-one
patents in two years do not represent all
the entrymen in Wyoming Territory
which contains $4,000 people and over Co.
OOO, 600 acres of land.

ESPECIAL 10 THE HERALD.

DILLON, October 25.--Tbe meetings
throughout Madison county which Col.
Sanders addressed have been most gratify-
ingly successful. He and his admirers are
enthusiastic over the reception given him
in Madison county. At Twin Bridges Rev.

at Sheridan Hon. r. o. Hickman presided.
The meeting at Virginia City was most

THERE is good reason why the Vest and
Northwest is and should always remain

of Republican policy. That policy gave as

REPORTS in the dispatches to-day show
that South America has suffered more dis
astroIsly from drouth the present season
than any portion of this country. The loss
of sheep alone is stated at twenty million
head. 1t will cripple the industry for
years to come. Similar, though not as ex-
tensive losses, have occurred in Australia.
Our country can never afford to sacrifice
its sheep industry and depend upon foreign
supplies.

AND RAILROADS.

We appeal to the intelligence OF the
laboring men of Montana not to be mis-
led by pretended friendship of those who
are seeking their votes to acquire power
in order that they may use it to the sac
rifce of their interests. Mr.. Penrose
processes to be Republican and bases
his opposition to Col. Sanders in this
campaign on the fact that the latter is a
railroad Republican. So far as he has
anything to say against the unreasonable
rules of the coal company, we have no
controversy with him. We have re-
peatedly said that those coal company
regulations are unreasonable and unfit
to be imposed upon independent, self
respecting men in any country. But to
go further and claim that it is for the
interest of workingmen to oppose rail-
roads on general principles, or because
they are owned by corporations and in
their nature are to some extent monopo-
lies, is not reasonable or sensible. 1t is
Just as much for the interest OF working
men in Montana that we should have
railroads as for any other portion of the
community. In fact, railroads benefit
this portion of our people more than
any other. But for our railroads the
mines of Montana would be of little or
no value. They could not be worked to
profit, and therefore would not be
worked at ALL If all our mines were
idle and unproductive, what would be
the effect on workingmen? They would
have no employment in the mines nor
in any of the other industries dependent
upon mining industries. We have no
manufactures to give employment to
workingmen. There would be nothing
in the world here in Montana for such
men except to go work on lands either
in stock raising or agriculture. Men
without capital cannot 60 into the stock
business. If they all go into agricul-
ture, without our mines being worked,
there would be no markets at home and
there would be no way of reaching
markets abroad. In any way the matter
can be viewed the railroads are as essen
tial to the interests, and the very exist
ence of workingmen, whose capital is in
hands and muscles, as to any portion of
the community.
Those are false friends who pretend
that railroads are the enemy of the
workingmen. But for the rail-
roads of this country millions of
laboring men would be without employ
ment and none of them would be earn
ing more than bare subsistence.
That the railroads abuse their power
and opportunities is also true, and in the
matter of restraining and correcting
these abuses. we will go as far as any
one. The best things we have are liable
to abuse, but this is no excuse for indis-
criminate, unreasoning warfare upon
things whose uses are essential to our
prosperity and very existence. Fire and
air and water may become elements of
injury and destruction at times, but we
cannot do without them.
In all that Col. Sanders has done to
secure the construction of railroads in
Montana he has worked for the best
interests of every laboring man in Mon
tana.
When elected Delegate he will be no
more the attorney of the Northern Pa
cifc railroad than of any other road,
and just as much the attorney of all the
people against the abuses of railroads as
Mr.. Toole or any other man in the Ter
ritory.
