THE Butte Mining journal, anent our
twitting the Knights of Labor for emitting
all Montana newspapers but the Journal
and Independent, even the New NORTH.
WEST, from their dance list, says, now that
they have "surmounted all Obstacles" etc.,
we "desire TO rally under the folds of their
banner" etc. No, thank you. If you will
not admit it., it is sufficient for us that the
Denver gang which was running the Gar
rison assembly when We called it to account
for its iniquities is now, with Buchanan at
its head, keeping you busy enough to re-
strain it from giving the knife to the Pow
derby administration and disrupting the
entire organization. If there is . page In
the history of this paper we are proud OF It
is the one on which we bid defiance to An
order that formally boycotted it for opposing
and abhorring its iniquities, even though it
was threatened, and we have the proof, that
"the NEW NORTHWEST wouldn't last six
weeks If boycotted." The courts OF the
country subsequently pronounced boycottine
An illegal conspiracy, Is we did then
We notice no other assembly followed the
Garrison lead; that Montana Knights fol-
lowed the wiser counsels Of Powderly, who
censured the very practices we did, and who
In turn has been savagely attacked therefor
We have our own labor organization and do
not wish to join any other. 1t consists o.
one man, and he is IN American citizen VIII
will concede fully his rights to every Other
man, but who will yield none of his " al
the demand of any organization, and who
would not dance the demagogue jig for oil
the offices in the American Republic. So.
Brother Penrose, do not misunde rstand us
We do not claim to be always right. But
when we believe we are, and it is worth
while to take : hand, it will require q more
powerful Organization than we have yet seer
in this land of the free to keep u from say
ing what we believe, even though it may
not amount to much when said.

THE Bozeman Chronicle says the report
that VIM. Overmsn was frozen to death near
Belgrade is incorrect. If this is the case we
believe there is not record of any white per-
son who froze to death in Montana during
the cold snap. Mr.. Hauley was frozen near
Marysville, preceding the extremely cold
weather, and Saunders was also lost before
that time. Fifty.six below zero! and 14O,-

How Would They Suspect" Them.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Referring to the
telegram referred to him from the Butte
City board of trade asking the co operation
of the interior department in preventing the
patenting Of Montana mineral lands to the
Northern Pacific road, Acting Commissioner
Stockslager said to-day there is nc occasion
for fear. The patents would have to be
asked for by the railroads, and in the issue
of such patents, all lands even suspected of
being mineral in character are excluded.
The parties interested in the matter are
asked to furnist the general land office in
formation as to the mineral character of the
lands selected by the company.

A MASS MEETING was called to meet In
Dillon Tuesday evening to protest against
the dismemberment of Montana by cutting
off Beaverhead and Missoula and attaching

A California Tragedy

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27.-A special from
Santa Anna says: C. B. Hitchcock, a promi-
nent farmer, came TO Santa Anna last Mon
day with his wife and acknowledged = deed
to his property to q German named An-
sch)ag. They returned home, but not being
seen thereafter, the %neighbors became suspi
cious of foul play, instituted q search, and
to. day found the dead bodies q long distance
from tie house. Hitchcock and his wife
were found side by side in a hole in the
ground which had been covered over with
earth and straw. Hitchcock's throat was
cut from ear to ear and his wife's head was
split open with . Ratchet. It seemed evi.
dent that Anschlag had murdered them to
regain the money he had paid them for their
land. A lynchiug party a. once started to
find Anschlag, and before the officers could
interfere Anschlag had been hanged at the
hands Of the lynchers. ""@.
Charles B.. Hitchcock came to this State
in 1875 from Elgin, Illinois. He has 3
father and mother now living At Canton,
Illinois. The maiden name of Mrs. Hitch
cock, who was found murdered with her
husband, was Rehe Bradley, and also lived
with her parents at Elgin, and was q dangh-
ter Of W. S. Bradley. Fritz Anschlag, who
is supposed to have murdered the couple, is
1 German 25 years old, and came to this
State about one year ago, living at San
Francisco for some time. He had . supposed
partner named Antoine Dyker. Two weeks
ago Anschlag appeared at Santa Anna osten.
sibly to buy a farm, and arranged to buy the
Hitchcock place for $4,000, paying q small
advance. Last SATURDAY. the abstract was
completed and q deed to the farm was exc
| cuted at Santa Anna. Anschlag desired to
postpone paying over the money until Mon.
day and accompanied Hitchcock to his
home. It is supposed that he murdered
/ Hitchcock and his wife some time Monday
or Monday night, secreting their bodies As
telegraphed last night. - =
kilograms received this morning state
that both Anschlag and Dyker were lynched
seven miles from Santa Anna last night aud
their bodies left hanging to a tree. Hitch
cock was . man very highly respected and
was one of the most prominent men in the
county. ..=1tM

RETIREMENT OF JUDGE GALBRA1rH

On Saturday last, on . telegraphic dispatch
that his commission Rad issued, Associate
Justice DeWolfe was sworn in and Associate
Justice Galbraith retired from the bench of
Montana. 1t would be . duty left undone
to pass this fact without expressed recogni-
ton Of the eminent character Of the retiring
Justice. Coming among rs . stranger, and
unused to the laws and practices of Montana,
he was confronted with most important
cases and an amount of labor that had taxed
the energies of Judge Knowles, to whom in
twelve years service the letter OF the law
and practice had become household words
and the people Of his District were known
with the familiarity of n%eighbors. Address
ing himself to the purpose, Judge Galbraith
set himself to master the situation, and to
say that he has been an upright Judge,
learned in the law and bearing . most hon.
orel name on the tongues of all men during
his eight years. service is but voicing 4 senti-
ment that prevails with = uDanimity we
have never known excelled. With integrity
beyond the breath of reproach; with = long
series of important decisions the actions Of
superior Courts have left almost unbroken +;
with the confidence, honor and esteem for
unblemished character that is universal In
his District and known throughout all Mon
tana, he steps from the bench 10 resume q
place At the bar, recognized among his
brethren as one of the ablest Of their num-
Der and welcomed as an honor to the profes.
sion. We doubt not there is better recon-
pense At the bar than on the bench, and
Judge Galbraith could bring no better rec
o%mmendation to the profession than the
character he brings therefrom. We are
pleased that he has decided to continue his
residence in Deer Lodge, and wish for him
abundant success.

THE PoPE,s JUBILEE GIFTS.
Reprs.en. a v.,us Exceeding seo,ooo.ooo'.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 30.-A correspondent Of
the Sun in Rome has furnished An interest,"
ing description of the gifts to Pope Leo on
the occasion of bis jubilee. he says the
gifts have come in so rapidly that two add
lions have already been made to the mild
ing in which they are to he exposed. So far
1000 cases of articles have been bandled,
and the end is not yet. Up to January 18th
presents to the value Of 100000 have
passed through the hands of the Vstican
inspectors. Even that sum has been ex-
ceeded in money. The United States has
outstripped every other country in its Iona
ton. The exact sum of the whole money
gift cannot be ascertained, all the contribu-
lions not being yet in hand. This matter OF
testifying to Pope Leo the fealty Of the
Catholics of the United States was strongly
recommended by the American bishops,
who gave their attention to 1t principally,
though many exquisite presents from their
dioceses will be received. It has won the
admiration Of the Pope, who is more pleased
with it than that of any other country, since
it furnishes him with ready means 10 spread
the Catholic church through Europe and
parts of the far East-enterprlses into which
he has thrown his heartiest energies. In
proportion to the number of Catholics in
various contributing countries, Belgium and
Hungary have sent most gifts. Everything
used in the Catholic services is there in pro-
fusion. Irish Catholics, besides their heavy
money contributions, are represented by
rolls of Irish laces, cases of vestments,
golden altar vessels and ornaments in abund'
ance, and the finest exhibition of porcelain
in the exposition. Patriotism and religion
have been prettily blended by them in this
portion of their offerings, as instanced in a
beautiful oval mirror, framed in waresand
surmounted by tiara and the keys of Peter;
1t its base is the harp OF Erin, resting on a
bed of shamrocks. Many of the tributes
from Ireland remain unpacked.
