A Case in Probate Court.

On a complaint sworn out by Joseph Nc
Gowan, of Stone Station, and drawn by
County Attorney Durfee, Dominick Mellen,
of the same place, was brought before Pro-
bate Judge Emerson Tuesday charged with
assault with attempt to commit murder. At
County Attorney Durfee's request o.. B.
O'Bannon, Esq, appeared for the prosecu-
ton and VIM. j. Galbraith and j. H. Duffy,
Esq, for the defense. The ARRAY had &C.
Cured at Stone Station March 18th. It COM
menced at a dog fight at 8 o'clock and was
renewed by the men that evening. 1t was
testified that Mellen used language for
which MCGOWAN retaliated by striking him
repeatedly, that during the melee Mellen,
who is crippled in the right hand, drew a
knife, which was wrenched from him by
MCGOWAN, who continued to strike Mellen,
got him down and kicked him, and that par
ties present then got Mellen to 60 away. 1t
was not in evidence that Mellen struck with
the knife. 1t was in evidence that MCGOWAN
made the assault. The defense did not call
any witnesses. The complaint had no stand
ing in court by the testimony of the prose-
cutting witnesses, and Judge Emerson forth
with discharged the defendant and taxed the
prosecuting witness with the costs. Action
is being brought to relieve the prosecuting
witness of the costs, the ofense complained
of being a felony. If it is true that under the
laws of Montana the costs cannot be so
taxed, it should be corrected. This case was
brought here at an expense Of S237 costs,
when there were Justices at Philipsburg and
New Chicago, near by, where the expense
would have been only a fraction Of this, and
there was not even an allegation that justice
could not be had in those courts. That is
where it should have been tried, if tried at
all, and the County not be held for useless
exnenSe.

An Independent View of the Tariff Bill.
r. II. Husbdndman, 8th.

With this bill as a law Montana may con-
slider herself set back ten years at least in the
scale of progress: Hundreds of silver, lead
and copper mines will have to be abandoned
for the present, and our two millions of
sheep, yielding, as they do to-day, a revenue
OF 30 per cent. of their revenue annually will
have to be consigned to the shambles. There
is no gainsaying this. Montana cannot COM
pete with Australia, New Zealand and South
America, where labor is SO cheap in the pro-
duction of wool, and would not attempt it.
just think of it: if this new bill should he.
come a law this springs wool clip would not
bring over 129 cents per pound. It is doubt
fnl If it would average over 10 cents to our
people, and one can readily see that such
prices would bankrupt the country. Just
how the Montana advocates of the reform
movement are going to reconcile these Stub
born facts with the best interests of the Ter
ritory, is more than we know. We all we'll
know that the cost Of the wool in a suit of
clothes cuts but a little figure in it's price,
tariff or no tariff, and that the new measure
would scarcely produce a ~perceptible decline
IN wooden wares. Then, just what we are to
receive in compensation for having the sheep
industry, one of the most prominent and
promising rural pursuits of the country, par
alyzed, is more than the Rocky Mountain
Husbandman can see, and we challenge the
advocates of the unwholesome doctrine to
cite a single advantage this Territory is to
receive in compensation for the disaster it
proposes to entail.

A Tragedy at Woodville.

John St. John, a Frenchman, on Thursday
of last week, shot three times a colored wo-
man named Mrs. Robb, at Woodyille, near
Butte, killing her instantly, after which he
pleced the pistol to his head, fred aud fell
dead. correspondent of the Inter. Mountain
says Mrs. Robb was a modern Cleopatra, a
t;gress in her loves and hatreds that she
loved with fercest intensity, which soon
turned to deepest hatred, and no vengeance
she could wreak on a C discarded lover satlated
her hate that men had died in q%uarrels Of
her making that she had been St. Johns
mistress n discarded him; that while he
was in favor other discarded men had
destroyed his property until he was poverty
stricken; that under the influence Of liquor
he visited her and they quarreled; that he
saw the demon glare come in her eyes, and
as she started for her pistol, was too quick
for her and fire. 1t is a well-written letter.

The Philipsburs Cable Railway.
M0il. Sth.

M0il, SM.
We saw this morning the articles of incor-
p~orat;on of the Philipsburg g. Granite rail-
road, formed with a capital of 500, 600,
divided into 7,G00s shares, at 500 each, for the
purpose Of constructing a line of cable rail-
road from Philipsburg to Granite and other
adjacent points. AS is now we'll known, the
incorporators are F. c. Lawrence, Joseph A.
Hyde, Henry 1mkamp, Charles Kroger and
James Patten. The road to Granite will be
built from the Philipsburg & Drummond
railroad depot through Broadway, Philips
to the town of Granite.
Arthur Hodges, Chief Engineer of the
Steel Street Railway Co., of Johnstown, Pa,
is expected to arrive here about the 18th inst.
and will rave charge of the surveys, con-
struction of the road and all other matters
pertaining thereto.
The building of this road will serve to con-
solidate thet towns of %Philipsburg and Gran
lite, and be mutually beneficial to both, as
will be readily seen by any one who gives
the matter a moments thought. The impe-
tus to the business of the two towns is alone
enough to make the people welcome the en-
terprise, and many diff culties of travel and
communication which it will obviate will
have the effect of greatly increasing the pop
ulation aud assessed valuation of property in
the neighberhood and throughout the dis
trict. --
