In the local columns is given the
mans weakness and duplicity that
are common all over the country. a
man who stood high in the confidence
and esteem of the community in
which he lived an upright life for many
years, suddenly falls from grace, and
disappears from his old haunts, his
name Swallowed i'm the obllquy of dis
grace. Behind him he leaves nuiner-

set upon his track, and by
careful search his whereabouts

who figures as the principal actor in
this common, every day drama has
found the scriptural admonition liter
ally true. In this connection it is only
justice TO award Chief of Police Warren
the merited credit that is his due for
managing the case in the manner in
which he did. The visiting officials

In this state OF uncertainty any light
that can be thrown upon The possible
action of Mr.. Hill in selecting Il west
ern route is read with good deal OF
interest, even though it may not be
backed by an official seal. IL seems
almost certain that the road will trav-
erse Washington territory, but just
where it will cross the western border
and what may be the direction taken
after entering the territory il matter
that time alone can decide. The
Butte Inter Mountain in II recent is

subject:
The news reaches us in very
roundabout way that jim Hill expects
to extend the Montana Central south
from Butte To Ogden ana thence west
to the Pacific. This report comes
from Los Angeles correspondent OF II
newspaper at Fargo, and seemed to he
based upon the fact that Hill is spend
ing the winter in California and talks
OF buying some land down there.
There is not likely to be much truth
in 1T.
"When Hill gets ready to extend
his road to the Pacific" said promi-
nent railroad man to-day, "it is not
likely that with two routes before him
he will decide against one which would
pass through II rich country all the
way, as would a road via the Columbia
route, and select one which would be
thorugh sagebrush and desolation, as
would the one talked OF via I, gden and

tate scheme OF sufficient magnitude

cut half the state up into town lots, to
justify him in giving such II country

think the route chosen will be through
Silver Bow canyon, past Anaconda,
up Warm Spring creek via Silver Lake
and Philipsburg to the Bitter Root
and thence west. That's about how
the Montana Central will go out OF

A DISPATCH received by Judge Ha-
gan of this city from Sand Point, Idaho,
reports that three miners have been
killed by Indians at Priest lake. No
further particulars are given, and il is
to be hoped that upon investigation the
report will be found to be incorrect.
The murder OF prospectors 10y Indians
would be followed by disastcrous re-
suits. Probably more disasterous to
the red men, but in administering pun
ishment to the Indians many valuable
lives are certain to be sacrificed. Be-
sides the murder would have the effect
of stopping to a large extent prospect
ing in what already gives promise of
being very extensive and valuable
mineral belt. Priest lake is to the
east OF Pend d'Orielle lake, and the
outlet is near Sand Point. While an
act of this kind may be confined
to only few of the Indians Of
that immediate locality, yet the
chances arc that it will be
followed by vendetta between the
Whites and the Indians extending all
over the region, and jeopariizing the
lives of miners at the various points
on the lake and rivers where the min
eral has been discovered. Miners from
Metaiine inform us that they have
never had any serious trouble with the
Indians in the neighborhood. The
natives are given to stealing anything
they can carry off, but have never
made any murderous demonstrations.
There can be no doubt if this murder
has been committed, the Indians will
be made to feel the vengence of the
miners. and while the result win be
the success OF the miners in the end
while the killing process is in opera
ton, the lives of many of the miners
will be sacrificed. We await further
particulars from the scene with a
great deal of anxiety.

The present city council viii only
hold one or two more meetings before
II change takes pace in the organiza-
ton. The past year has been busy
one for that body and the members
have made most creditable record.
Many extensive and prominent inn
provements have been inaugrated re-.
quiring the expenditure of many tn )u-
sand dollars, and the result OF the
years work is to be seen in the mag
niiioently graded streets and the ex-
tension OF the water system over much
new territory. The present council
has accomplished more permanently
beneficial work then any other council,
and the new one to be chosen will
find II vast amount of work to per
form during the next twelve months.

THE call has been issued and the
public notified by handbills that cit
izens' meeting will be held at the
skating rink this evening for The pur.
pose of nominating ticket for the
approaching municipal election. On
the street not word is heard in rel.,.
ton 10. the result of this meeting, the
names Of no candidates are discussed.
There is II prevailing feeling existing
from some cause, that the meeting is
an unnecessary expense. Heretofore
for days prior toa mass convention
the town has been thoroughly can
vassed in the interest of this man or
that for the various Office. The alb
sence OF this common practice on
tins occasion is what gives rise to the
idea that the nominations to-nIght
will be carried out without II sem
blance of opposition. However, this
may only he conjecture occasioned by
the, prevailing absence OF interest in
the meeting. Whatever ticket is nom
mated tonight will in all probability
have to face another before the day of
election. II remains to be seen which
is the stronger at the polls.

FROM present appearances there will
probably be two tickets IN the field at
the approaching municipal election
III the second ticket is to be chosen
Monday, We may look forward to II
season OF strife that has so far been
conspicuous by its absence this
spring. Everybody will breath easier

1T will not do for our people to sit
supinely by and wait for the several
projected railroads heading in this di.
rection to come to Spokane Falls.
They may be fooled While Spokane
is idle III this all-important matter
other places less favored in population
and wealth and with nothing like such
prospects are making efforts TO divert
these roads. Heretofore the people
OF Spokane have always been found at
the front bidding for railroads, or any
thing else that would in any manner
contribute to the welfare of the place.
Now there appears to be no dis
| position to make it an object
TOR such lines as the Seattle
Lake Shore & Eastern to build in this
direction. Sleepy Walla Walla has
offered cold 100000 to have this
line built to that place. Spokane Falls
is atle to go Wal!a Walla an hundred
thousand better, and should do SO.
Let some OF our representative land
owners and capitalist make up II
purse, take stock, otferer lands, any
thing Of value, in fact, and, say to the
directors OF the Seattle, Lake Shore IL
| Eastern. "Come over and see what
kind of city this is, and here is so
much of IA subsidy to induce construc-
ton to this point" that is the old way
that used to work so successfully, it
will work just as well now. There is
no time 70 daily over this matter. Let
olir people act promptly, and we do
not believe there will be any trouble
in securing this very much desired
