Range Fires.

From Mr.. Paul Romsey, residing ut the
mouth of Teton coulee, we learn that by
the range fires on the 3d, 4th and 9Th Of
the present month, a grazing area Of 80 by
Is miles was destroyed, on this side Of
Teton. About one-half of this burnt dis
trict is in Cascade and the other half is in
Choteau county. On this range were
some $4,000 head of cattle and horses,
besides great number of sheep. The
great herds and tlocks will in consequence
have to he driven to the Milk River In
dian reservation, recently thrown open
for settlement, This will involve a great
outlay to the stock-masters and stock
owners. The Montana Stock Association
offers a reward of $500 for the discovery
of any person setting fire to the range.
The settlers are petitioning for post
office and hope to have mail service with
Great Falls ere long. They poll about
thirty votes, two-thirds of which are re-
publieans.

A New Importation.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20-The National
line steamship Spain landed motley
collection of immigrants at Castle Garden
to-day. A large number of the vessels
passengers were destitute and friendless,
and others were in ill-health, feeble, and
unable to perform labor of any kind.
Among them were five men, two women
and seven children whose passage had
been paid here by the Duke of Bucking-
ham. These people came from small
village in Buckingham county, England.
Work was slack there and they appealed
to the duke for aid. He advised them to
seek employment in America, and agreed
to pay their passage. Collector Malone
has been informed of their arrival, and
has ordered them detained until Satur-
day, at which time, if they do not receive
aid to take them to Manitoba, to which
place they say they are en- route, they
will be sent back to England.

New York Politics.

NEW YonK, Oct. 2O.-A thorough can
vass of twenty three counties of New
York State shows that Republicans are
confident of victory in the national elec-
tion. The success of the ticket seems to be
already assured. One reason of this con
viction is the absolute harmony which
exists within the Republican party as con

Went Broke on Lead,

CHICAGO, Oct. 20-Nathan Corwith &
Co., the great pig lead firm and promo
ters of the gigantic pig lead trust, have
failed. The immediate cause Of the fail
ure was the refusal of the Union Nation
al bank of Chicago to extend the time on
overdrafts to the amount of $4,000. This
sum will represent very small proper
ton Of the firms Indebtedness to the
bank, and is only the climax Of a long
series of overdrafts to pay margins which
were sustained by the lead trust. The
liabilities run into the millions and the
assets cannot be approximated.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. 2O.-The fight of
the Southern Presbyterians over evolution
has broken out afresh. 1t will be re-

Columbia theology seminary, was remov-
ed for teaching evolution last week. The
Charleston presbytery passed resolu-
ton forbidding any member from criticis-

condemning Woodrow. Now comes the
state synod and condemns the action of
the Charleston presbytery, and directs it

These MAY Land.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2O.-In Il telegram
received by the treasury department the
collector at San Francisco announces the
arrival at his port of the American
steamer Bertha, with ninety Chinese la
borers. The steamer, he says, cleared at
Kodiac Island. Alaska, whittier they went
from San Francisco. The collector asks
for ruling whether the Chinese should
be allowed to land. In reply Assistant
Secretary Maynard says these Chinese
may be regarded as never having left the
United States, and may therefore be per
mitted to land. He advises, however,
that strict proof Of this be demanded.

candidates for mayor, but always support
the republican presidential ticket The
true comparison Of yesterdays election
was with the charter election Of one year
ago. Then the democrats elected Haynes
to the mayoralty by a majority of 1908.
Yesterday the democratic ticket received
512 majority. This shows clean, clear
republican gain of 796. This is the truth,
and shows substantial republican vic
tory. The democrats are sending mis-
leading dispatches in order to divert at
tention from the significance Of the result
on November's election.

petition for a writ Of habeas corpus in
the case of David Terry, of California,
sentenced by Judge Field to imprison

The Alice to Resume Operation.

BUTTE, Oct. 19.-In few days the
Alice will start their 20-stamp mill to
work, and will also resume operations on
the Magma Charter mine, one of the val
liable properties, owned by this company,
which has been idle for the past twelve
months. President J. r. Walker is in
the city. Present appearances look as
though the Alice company will work in
all it's mines. But little mining has been
done by this company for long time.
The resumption of work gives employ
ment to about 200 additional men.
