give this hour 70 sorrow; nay, refrain,
Bethlnk thee skies cen now are somewhere
bright
For Others, the green leaves are dancing Light
And lovers meet where blossom in tho lane
Flowers, the sky children OF the sun and rain
And somewhere torrents In their youthful
might,
sconing the smooth path, leap the dizzy
height,
And mountain summits glisten pure OF stain.
Somewhere for poet brows fame twines her
wreath;
Somewhere to noble purpose souls are won
By holy living or heroic death;
Brave hearts endure, nor quail at fortunes
frown;
And somewhere there is rest for all who breathe,
Somewhere a land where sorrow Is unknown

PERTINENT EVERYWHERE.
of "Rancher' in Dillon Tribune.
December 14th.

The increase of taxation in Beaverhead
county has caused inquiries to be mad as to
the reason af the additional per cent. of tax
alton for the year 1888, and it is found largely
due to the expenses incurred in criminal
cases. We ranchmen, as a rule, are not we'll
versed in law, consequently our views will
not accord with legal logic, but it does seem
pertinent to inquire if there is any necessity
for the army Of witnesses, who, oftentimes,
are compelled to leave urgent personal affairs
and in many cases not knowing why they
are called to testify, but are required
to remain in attendance at court
several days, perhaps weeks, to finally be
discharged with the knowledge that their
testimonyis merely a reiteration of, possibly
a dozen of others before them.
Should not the attorneys be required to ex-
ercise more discretion in this matter of pro.
miscuous subpoenaing-be asked to explain
to the Court wherein it is reasonable to sup
pose the presence of any witness would add
new and useful features to their cases 2. We
would not desire to deprive any one of ample
facilities for sustaining relevant testimony
or rebutting damaging evidence, but we do
object to such seemingly extravagant outlay
of legal ability, not so much in the line of
solicitude for the attorney, (who is simply
doing the best for his client) but because of
the unnecessary expense entailed upon the
county. It is not only the attorneys who
should he admonished in the matter of econ
omy, but the committing magistrates might
profit If cautioned concerning a repetition
of testimony, and thereby curtail the mum
Der Of witnesses in cases where they are
bound over to appear before the Grand
Jurors.
In the matter of those unfortunates, wit
nesses who are unable to give bono and
ntly become paid guests of the
county, it seems a great injustice to thus de-
prive innocent men of their liberty.
Another, but, perhaps, minor subject is
he present system of CO unity road s%upervis-
Possibly the old mode of each road
electing its own supervisor, and the
County Commissioners apportioning a GER
per cent. of tho road money collected
rom the property in the district for its bene.
it would work more In harmony with the
wishes of the people.
If there are any remedies for these cases
next Legislature should be asked to give
IS relief. RANcHER.

appropriated last year for the public surveys.
One hundred Thousand dollars went into the
appropriation bills for this purpose a. the
last session of Congress, $4,000 Of which
was to be used for the examination of sur

surveying, and the Commissioner has made
awards covering 10000 Of it. Of this sum
Montana gets $4,000. The Surveyor General
of Montana desires a great deal of the
money for the surveys, 17,500,000 acres, re.

NEWS NOTES AND MENTION.

The Ancient Arabic Order Of the Mystic
Shrine Is : side degree for Masons Of the
Scottish Rites and Knights Templar degrees.
A Temple of this Order has been established
in Helena, and It's membership is increasing
rapidly. We believe W. ]. ("Billy") Flor.
ence, the noted actor, established the degree.
Its conditions Of eligibility are such as to
insure fine material 10 its membership, and
1t has, we believe, the handsomest Order
badge of al the fraternities-the scimeter
and crescent.
The ancestors Of the recent German en-
perors must have seriously offended the Al
mighty. The last one IS now troubled with

We presume our neighbor literally con-
strues the passage about "the sins Of the
fathers descending" etc. If that is so, some
Of Herod's forefathers must have been q bad

is therefore primarily responsible for .

THE week opened with an account Of a
racial war near Wahalak, Miss, in which It
was alleged . pitched battle had been fought
between whites and negroes and dozen Of
the former and $50 Of the latter killed. Late
accounts dwindled it down to one white
man and no negroes killed, but several
wounded, and the latest states that one
negro was shot and three hanged. The
matter is alleged to have grown out of the
rudeness of : negro to = white boy while
driving on the road. The reports are con-
Trajectory to the last degree, but it appears
the whites have organized ! warfare on the
negroes and that they are resisting. 1t may
grow into q very serious matter.
