Senator Vest, o. Missouri, has been ex
pressing himself to the Senate in regard
to pensions. He thinks the anxiety OF
bota political parties and the cupiditv Of
pension claim agents are responsible for
so much pension legislation. He does not
believe it is demanded by the volunteer
soldiers of the country. The astute and
purchased intellect of claim agents.

washington was constantly contriving
new devices for increasing pensions by
which to fill their own pockets. He
anirnadverted with severity on the
"nebulosity'' of the estimates made bv
different persons as to the amount that
the general Pension bill would take from
the Treasury. He asserted that the
amount was beyond the ken Of mortal

Almost a Duel

A few days ago we heard of an in
cident that occurred IN the Miles City cluf
rooms during the stockgrower's conven-
ton, says the Gazette,
The Marquis DeIores was seated at a
table with some friends when Mr.. Hough
who is building a slaughter house there,
entered with another gentleman and sat
down near the Marquis, without observ-
ing his presence. Mr.. Hough was talking
Of his venture to the gentleman that en-
tered with him, and continued as fol-
lows:
"Yes, when / came here, everyone
was waring me to keep out of the beef
business, and telling me what mess the
Marquis De Mores had made of it. But

the Marquis, have the brains and ex-
perience, which he had not
At this juncture Mr. Hough was inter-
rupted. The Marquis could not help
hearing every word, and of course was
not pleased. He tapped Mr.. Hough on
the shoulder, and said, "Sir. if you
were not an old man wonld ask you
OUT
Mr.. Hough jumped up and roared.
Age bars nothing"
A duel seemed imminent, but num-
Der Of members of the club then inter-
fered, and got Mr.. Hough TO one side,
while the Marquis went to distant cor
ner of the room and sat down. Mr.. Hough
was convinced by his friends that be

cause and as member of the club should
apologize to the Marquis, who was

Marquis, and offered to apologize but the

THE MORMON QUESTION.

All week long the House Judiciary
Committee has been listening to argu-
ments for and against additional legisa-
ton in Utah The longest of these pleas
was that ofthe distinguished lawyer, Mr.
jeff Chandler. He had special indigna-
ton to bestow on those people who 60 to
Utah, who do not live there, yet stir up
strife and infame the country in order
to gain notoriety. Said lac: "Are we to
be driven by storm of prejudice?
Prejudice has darkened the history of
this country from the beginning" Miss
Katie Field, who sat by and heard all
that was said upon the subject, has made
some caustic remarks in reply. "Ac
cording to this reasoning, said she, be-
cause ] do not have my own throat cut,
| must raise no cry when my neighbours
throat is cut" She says if this country
is a nation, what concerns one portion.
concerns all, and it is about time for the
people to realize that when the Rocky
Mountains take poison, the Atlantic sea-
board must call in the doctors She also
thinks that people living outside of Utah
who ask f,r legislation to do away with
treason and polygamy in that Territory,
may be more unselfsh in their opposi
ton to the Mormon church than the
attorneys paid to defend it.

The Montana Central.

1t il stated that the Northern Pacific
proposes to to charge the Montana Gen.
trail $35 per ton for the transportation OF
material needed Ina the construction and
operation of the local line. The reason
is, of course, to embarrass if not prevent
the completion OF Mr.. Hills road, and if
the demand be enforced it will certainly
delay the eonsuInmation of that enter
prise whether it closes il out entirely or
not. But our vigorous contemporary
the River Press, sees way out of the
difficulty. WHY not ship the material
up the Missouri" exultingly inquiries the
Benton paper. There is much force in
the suggestion. Boats can be chartered,
and now that the season Of navigation
has just begun, both rails and rolling
stock can be easily transported up the
river from st. Louis or Omaha. For,
SAYS the Press with much enthusiasm,
"the Missouri river is as free as our
glorious air. Nobody owns the track.
1t is not monopoly. IF Col. Broad
water wants to see the Northern Pacific
people guessing, he can do it in twenty
four hours by chartering boats and max
ing his arrangements to ship material
this way. The old Missouri river is the
savior of Montana as regards freight
rates, and here Is an instance where it
might be demonstrated for the thou
sandth time or more"
Something certainly can be done to
give Helena another railroad, and we
nope the threats of the Press will induce
Manager Cakes to relent The Northern
Pacific, when it once reaches Butte from
Garrison, is likely at any time to be ex-
tended as a cutoff line to the vicinity OF
Bozeman, thus diverting all the travel
and trade tn this direction and cut off
large source of revenue to the capital.
Hence the need of the Montana Central
in Helena, and the great benefits OF
low freight to the builders Of the Mon-
tana ral.-Independent.

Cattle Diseases.

Hoven, says a writer in Practical
Farmer, is distention Of the rumen. or
first stomach, by gas evolved within from
the fermentation of green food. The belly
swells and the breathing becomes Iabori-
Dus and heavy. The animal refuses to
eat, and stands with head extended. The
swelling rapidly increases until the en-
tire body is distended. The efficacy of
measures is in ratio with the promptness
with which they are taken. In the early
stages of the disease, chloride OF lime
promptly given in doses OF from two TO
A drachms will usually afford relief. An
bother good remedy is a teas pOonful Of pull
FverIzed charcoal every fifteen minutes
given in One-half pint OF milk or water
lsweetened with little mOlasses, until the
Sanimali is relieved.
If these fail the only resort is TO pune
ture the stomach, thus allowing the gas to
escape. If possible get a veterinary
Sturgeon to do this. Otherwise take
sharp pointed knife aud thrust it into the
left flank, about three inches below the
spinal column, aud half way between the
hips AID the last rib. Teen insert in the
cut quill or pipe stem, through which
the gas will escape. After the gas is re-
moved, give dose OF epson salts. Hoven
may be produced By too mucn green food
or by a normal amount when the diges-
ton is impaired or the body IS in 10 W
state OF health. Prevention is always
better than cure.
