freight. This is the first time business
of that character has been established
on the prairie and we wish him success.
A company of twenty i've men from

winter on the prairie so as to get an

Theodore Swarts sent out during the
week quartz specimens from his ledge
near the Bear Track" which shows
up the same character of free-god bear

the Florence basin. He thinks his
ledge is continuation of the "Bear
Track" but it is hard telling as the
entire basin is scanned with network
of quartz veins, all containing more or
less gold.

Death of James G. Holt.

On Monday evening. just as the
departing rays ofthe sun glded the tree
tops, all that was mortal of James G.
Holt was laid away to rest in that
beautiful receptacle for the dead over
| looking our town. The sorrowing family
and friends turned slowly and sadly
away, leaving him alone with his God.
In every heart there was a sense of
grief, such as last parting along can
bring. Each had some pleasant remem. i.
brance of him, and all felt that they had
one friend less for he possessed in an
eminent degree all those qualities of
head ana heart that attach men to each
other. He was intelligent, brave,
generous and true. The warm grasp of
the hand, the cordial smile, the word of
tender interest. all bespoke his SYM
pathy with his fellow.man and endeared
him to his friends. The final fare we'll
wasthe harder from the fact that Mr..
Holt passed from earth in the sum ner
of his existence. ere time had sprinkled
lis lilies through his hair or furrowed
his brow with the scars of vanished
years. James G. Holt was born in Salt
Lake, Nov. 9th. 1851. Married at Hill.

June 1888, and engaged extensively in
the stock business, being afterwards
joined by his brother Charles e. Holt.
He had complained of il. health but a
lew days prior TO taking to his bed,
when the symptoms of debility develop
ed into general breaking up of the
nervous system, inducing spinal affec-
tions and paralysis. Every resource of
medical science was called to aid the
sufferer, and through the many tedious
lays OF his illness he was most carefully
ended. Every attention that loving
telatives and thoughtful skill could
suggest to alleviate his sufferings was
done, but the dart of the destroyer
was too well sped, and after few davs
nncOnsciousness the dear patient
breathed his last on the evening of
Sunday, July 18th. To the sorrowing
elatives words of sympathy must fall
reoidly now, while their grief is great est,
but time will alleviate their pain and
they will then feel that in the transla
tion from earth to heaven the Father
acted merclful part, and their tears
will he dried in the belief that this loss
to them is his eternal gain and that he
who rules the universe doeth all things
we'll.

as it assumes to be- a judicial institution

next to be awarded fourth judge. As
our supreme court is constituted liti-
giant displays wonderful degree OF hope
and faith in human nature when he
appeals from a judgement in the district
court to and expects a reversal in the
supreme. To appeal is equivalent to
ask ng the judge TO declare his own rul-

error. Judges are not in the habit of
denonncing themselves ard casting re-
fections upon their own doings. The
new law for Montana excludes from sit

whose district the appeal is taken, thus
presumably giving the appellant u better

HAD DENoUGH.-Letters from Lewiston
inform US that agent Monteith is sick Of
all the recent troubles and ayoys his
intention to arrest no more Indians.
Indian Sam has resigned from the police
force and is now on his way to Montana
with the Crooks and Reynolds band of
horses, and the other policemen are
rowerless to make arrests as the tribe
with great unanimity have declared
that they will resist them on every uc-
casion, as they are tired of being arrest
ed SO frequently for petty offenses.
Monteith, we are told washes his hands
of the business, as he expects his sue
cessor to arrive soon and relieve him of
the office. For our part we are glad he
acknowledges his errors of judgment 30
gracefully, and now that the cruel war
is over we will bury the hatchet-only
leaving enough handle out of the ground
to give US good grip on the same in
the event of future contingencies.

Unnecessary VIOLENCE.

For which outraged nature exacts heavy
penalties. is done to the bowels by persons
who with drastic, drenehing purgatives
make war on those organs in order to re-
lieve their construction. Constipation is
not one of those desperate diseases that re-
quire desperate remedies. In fact, it is not
a disease at all, but the incomplete dis
charge of a function, to the healthy re-
newal of which Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers is far better adapted than drugs, whose
action is excessive and consequently debili-
tating and injurious. Disorder of the liver,
contamination of the blood with bile, sick
headaches and dyspeptic symptoms are the
attendants of costiyeness, and are likewise
remedied by the Bitters. Its action is not
limited to relieving the bowels naturally
and without pain. Used with persistence
and as directed, it perpetuates regularity in
the habit of body, and in the operations of
the digestive organs and liver. Fever and
ague, rheumatism and kidney troubles are
prevented and cured by it.
