A full audience greeted DIR. Parsons
at Bracket Hall on Friday night last
to hear his address on the tariff ques-
ton. The speech gave great satisfac-
ton to all except the free traders, and
gave some history which must prove
destructive TO democratic doctrine,
and to deny which only proves the ig-
norance of the person making the de-
NAL or places him in the attitude of
a claimant for greater historical
knowledge than the speaker. The
distinguishing line between fact and
theory was well marked in the speech,
and the Doctor, combining himself to
historical fact and illustration, left
little room for the quibbler, as his
tory is open to the investigation of
all, and illustration is too fair a mode
of argument for the quibbler's art.
The speech took, and as yet no one
whose opinions are of much value has
been heard to attempt to point out
any defects of Importance.

Missouri as a major under General Todd.
He then located at Yankton, Dakota
where he remained farming and stock
raising until the gold excitement broke
out IN the Black Hills. This induced
him to again turn his steps toward the
frontier, and he was among the first to
reach the new FL Dorado. He remained
in the Hills, pursuing various occupa-
tions until 1880, when he came to Miles
City and for the first few months of his
sojourn here was employed by DR.. Bur-
leigh. Later in the same year he went
into the employ of the Diamond RI,
with whom he remained until the close
of 1882. His remarkable knowledge of
the Sioux language, which he spoke like
native, and his high standing with the
Indians, made him valuable man to
manage the trade with three thousand
Sioux Indians, who were at that time
prisoners of war at Keogh, Early in
1888 he went to Cooke CITY, where he
has remained ever since and in the vicin-
ity of which he died. He was a man Of
good education, of very decided char.
actor. the strictest integrity. and de.
voted friend. In all his intercourse
with men since he had been in the west
he had not single enemy and was uni
versally respected fer his positive and
manly traits of character.

THE SQUIkREL-SkIN CASE.

1t will be seen by this issue of the
CHRONICLE that the celebrated Carson
care has at last been decided The de-
cision is against Carson and his bonds
men and means that someone will have
to pay the sum of $4,000 to the County
of Gallatin. Mr.. Carson informed It's
some time ago thst il the money was to bo
paid back he would see to it that no one
lost cent but himself While We have
never prejudged or given our opinion of
this case during the time it was in the
courts, we will say at this time that the
Probate Judge should have done as his
bondsmen requested, and placed this
money in the bank, until the matter
could have been decided. In all other
counties in the territory, the Probate
Judges were empowered to hire assis-
tants to count and burn or bury the
skins, and the percentage Of one cent
on each skin was turned into the treasury
OF course there was no county in the
territory that killed as many squirrels a
this; but 1t must be taken into consider.
alton that no such inducements were
offered elsewhere as were preferred by
the Probate Judge of this county.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

It is needless for us to say that the
New York Tribune has been in and out OF
season and intensely Blaine paper, ad-
vocating in every issue the renomina-
ton of the man from Maine. In recent
issue however it presented this to the
eyes of Its startled readers
Il do not know a Mugwump who
would vote for Mr.. Blaine next year.
know several republicans who assert con
stantly and positively that they would
not vote for him again, and do not be
lieve his Irish vote will be MS large as in
1884. 1t is not best to offend great
number of anti.Blaine republicans in
order to please Irish democrats who
have deserted the Republican party
at the eleventh hour in three cam
paigns."
Can it be that the Tribune too has al
last seen the handwriting on the wal
and out Of sheer ne essity is compclle,

DEATH OF MAJOR LYMAN

Major Lyman, one of the old land
marks of the lower and upper Yellow
stone, who for the past few months has
been in charge Of the saw mill at Red
Lodge for the Rocky Fork Coal company
died of pneumonia on the 18th inst. at
1:3O.
Major Lyman was one of the early
traders of the upper Missouri river and
was well.known throughout the whole
Northwest, from St. Paul to the British
Columbia line. He was every where re-
garding as man of sterling qualities and
possessed more than ordina ry business
intelligence. He was a true friend, as
many frontiersman has learned to
know. The Major came to Miles City
among the first, being in the employ of
Broadwater, Hubbell & Co., the Diamond
R., outfit. He afterwards was engaged
in the Park and last fall took the situa-
ton at Red Lodge.
1t will be a pleasure for his many
friends to know that he was tenderly
cared for during his late illness by Mr..
F. A. White, superintendent of the coal
company and that he had every atten-
ton that kind friends could devise
Major Lyman was about 65 years of age
and never strong.
From Hon. c. W. Hoffman, who has
long known Major Lyman, we learn that
the deceased was once very prominent
citizen of Dakota, and from the Yellow
stone Journal we learn the following re-
garding the deceased
Major William P. Lyman was born in
the northern part of Pennsylvania about
1925, his family being highly respected
and well-to-do people. He came to Da.
kota, where DIR. Burleigh first met him,
as a civilian attacLe of Gen. Hsrney's
expedition. in 1856. He was with Gen.
Harney at the battle of Ash Hollow,
where the Brule Sioux under Spotted
Tail were completely routed. From
there he went with the command to the
site of Fort Randall, and assisted in the
building of that post, During the war
he served with the volunteer forces of

With this issue the CHRONICLE closes
its fifth volume. There were many who
ominously shook their heads and pro-
phesied that it would not live six months,
when it was started in the dead of winter,
1888, yet here it is smiling and happy,
vigorously proving its right to exist and
the necessity of its existence. The
CHRONICLE has never made too many
promises, preferring to luore than fulfill
the few it did make. But this much we
do promise for the future: We shall
continue to make improvements and
maintain the the features which now
distingui ,hes the CHRONICLE, as the
largest paper in Eastern Montana, We
shall accord cheerful praise wherever ii
is due and not hesitate to blame when
such is required, We sincerely thank
our old friends for the earnest support
and hearty words of encouragement.
Our new friends we greet with pleasure
and shall ever strive to deserve theii
friendship.

Before next weeks CueoNIcLE reaches
its readers. the momontous question:
"Who is to occupy the bench of our
District Court?' will be decided by the
Supreme Court now in session. In view
of Judge DeWolf's desire to remain in
Butte, there lisa probability of the dis
tricts undergoing the annual change of
boundaries. 1t may be that DeWolf
will be given Silver Bow with some less
desirable districts tackled on to it. Sure
it is, however, that Judge McIleary will
not again hold court IN this district,
now known as the third; but who will
occupy it is past finding out.

Heard this Before.

A Billings despatch relates that on the
18th, County Clerk Hayes, of.Yellow-
stone county, filed for record mortgage
on the franchise of the Billings, Clark
Fork & Cooke City railroad to the Far
mer's Loan and Trust company, of New
York. amounting to $2,0OO,0O0. Chas.

dent. The route is from Billings, on the
Northern Pacific, up Claik's fork to
Cooke City and the New Worlds min

above the Livingstone Enterprise says
Two million dollars is large sum of
money, and just how that amonnt
can be raised by mortgaging an imagin-
ary railway franchise is mysterious. The
right.of way for this proposd line lies al
most wholly on the Crow reservation,

secure a right.of-way through an In

last reported mortgage, it it is quite evi

The new county of Cascade has $40 600
worth of delinquent taxes on its books.
This is not a very tlattering showing for
the new county. The proprietors of the
new town say that the cause Of all this is
the high assessment oftheir property.
II this be true, the new comfy can con-
gratulate themselvesupan being the pos
SCISSOR of an assessor who is ont of the
usual run of such. Most Of the assessors
are prone to assess the property of rich

to yet the journal to issue "boom"

pursued in Helena and elsewhere, where
the Pioneer Press and the Minneapolis
Tribune have written up the town and
then departed for other fields, "Boom"
articles in such papers, We should judge,
would not carry much weight with them.

1t now appears that Hon. Martin

in the interest of admission of Montana
into the union as a state and he Is of
the opinion that the bill introduced by

has in view is to secure, If possible, a
ratification Of the treaty with the Gros
Ventres and Piegans in accordance with
the recommendation of the commission
that recently visited these tribes. In an
interview he said at appears strange

slow town, will soon be entitled to the
belt as the liveliest town in the country
for its size. With a fine system of cleo

place as the foremost burg in the terri
