Wedding Belli.

Last evening at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Ringwad, on HoWie street, occurred
a scene Of joy at the wedding Of Mr. Her
bert Chowen and Miss Agnes M. Ball,
both of Great Falls. Only a very few Of
the relatives were present, but those who
were privileged, pronounced the occasion
an agreeable one. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. r. p. Kelsey, pastor
Of the Congregational church. The occa-
sion was doubly pleasant, it being the eve
of the fifth anniversary Of the wedding Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ringwald. After we'd
ding tour to Minneapolis and Chicago, Mr..
and Mrs. ChoWen return to Great Falls as
their future home, enthusiastic over the
bright prospects Of that growing place

Montana and Washington.

WASHINGTON, December 15.Delegate
Toole has been effective in his arguments
on the question Of admission. He has inn
pressed his idea thar Montana's hope is in
joining hands with Washington territory,
which at the recent election went republi-
can, although it did elect a democratic
delegate to congress on the anai-railroad
monopoly. issue. Mr.. Toole's argument
before the committee created very fa-
vorable impression On congressman, which
bore fruit to-day when the committee on
territories agreed to report bill for the
admission Of Nc ntana and Washington
territory jointly. This is regarded here
as decided triumph for Mr.. Toole who
now has high hopes Of accomplishing adj
mission at this session on the basis Of the
Washington compromise, as Dakota is so
divided that there is no prospect of any
com promise with her.

The Indian Commission.

Mr.. l.. V. Bogy showed us to-day let
ter received by him from Poplar River,
under date of December 18th, in which it
was stated that Gen. Heth, Of the Indian
service, who has been in charge Of the III
dians at Poplar for some months, was Or
dered to remain until the arrival OF the
commission at that place, and they were
expected ia two Or three days. 1t is
thought that instead of going back to
Glendive the commission will continue
their journey west to Fort Peck and Belk-
nap and then to Benton, en- route to the
Blackfoot agency. 1t is only 225 miles
from Poplar River to Belknap and con-
siderably less from Fort Peck, and as they
probably have army transportation, the
journey will not be so difficult. If this
programme is followed it will not be many
days until we may expect visit from the
commission.

The Irrepressib1e Conflict.

Salt LAKE, December 16.-B1ood has at
tions in Idaho. While pursuing fleeing
Cohab named Dalton, at Porowan to-day,
Deputy Sherifs Orton and Thompson shot
and killed the escaping criminal. The
town sheriff arrested the two deputies and
Jailed them at Beaver, q small village near
PoroWan. The entire town of Beaver is
composed of disciples of the Mormon faith
and great apprehension is entertained lest
the two deputies may be mobbed by the
enraged town people. The news of the
trouble was received here with great ex-
element and the streets are filled with
knots of anxious people earnestly discuss
ing the situation, which seems serious in
deed, as it is shought that the results Of
to-day may precipitate more extended
trouble, which will probably break out all
along the line unless prompt measures are
taken to quell the spirit Of bitter hatred
which will probably hurry the people to
acts of mob violence at the scene of to-
days trouble, which is a perfect hotbed of
Mormonism. Further violence will surely
cause both sides to fly to arms; then look
out for merry hades.
SALT LAKE, December 17.-Thompson,
the deputy marshal who shot Dalton at
Porowan, yesterday, while trying to es-
cape arrest for unlawful coha abitation, was
taken to Beaver for examination. The
officer says he intended merely to shoot
over Dalton, not to hit him. Dalton had
twice escaped after arrest and sent the
deputies word that if they wanted him to
come ssWell heeled:" he would get away
with them and not be taken alive. The
excitement has subsided but the Mormons
are declaring their wrongs in angry words.

called up the bill granting to the Cinnabar
6 Clark's Fork railroad company the
right Of way through the northern por-

An animated and lengthy debate upon the

as the bill was being considered in the

strike ou5 the enacting clause. This was
agreed to by II to 65, but before action
was taken by the house, the morning hour
expired. The house then went into COM

No River and Harbor BILL

WASHINGTON, December lit is. not
probable that the river and harbor bill
will be passed at this session. The large
balance still remaining uneApended Will
operate to induce many members to oppose
a bill until next year, while there is an
increasing feeling that there should only
be river and harbor bill every alternate
session. Senator Mcmillan, speaking of
the river and harbor bill, which the COM
mittee on commerce., Of which he is chair
man, would have control, said:
presume bill will be framed and
passed, as it has been the custom to make
annual provision for these Improvements.
I know of no reason why the custom
should be omitted at this session.
His attention being called to the recent
statement of the secretary of war, show
ing. that nearly $17, 100000 Of the river and
harbor appropriations remain on hand, he
said:
Yes, but is more than probable that the
most of that sum-possibly all of it's in
cluded in existing contracts. The fact
that the money has not been paid out
and that is all the statement shoWs--does
not mean that it is available for eontinu-
ing the improvements now in progress or
for new works. Such statements inVaria-
bly, show a large amount on hand. on

appears that the girl, who is very pretty,
