Alleged Secret Cutting.

1t was learned last evening that the
Northern Pacific is soon to reduce freight
rates from St. Paul and Minneapolis to
Helena, Mont, about % per cent on all
classes. A gentleman who halls from
Montana and is familiar with the situa-
ton said that the reductions ars to be
made ostensibly the enable the Helena
merchants to do larger jobbing bust.
ness than heretofore, hut that the real
reason was that an Investigation in Hell
ena by the Northern Pacific representa-
tives had led them to believe that tho
Manitoba had been cutting rates.
Whether the rates had been cut or not,
the Northern Pacific was about to make
the reductions referred to in order to
protect their friends and put each msr-
chant on and equal footing with any one
who might have been fortunate enough
to get lower rates than tariff.-Pioneer-

~ LIKE HIM WELL"
An Interview with Judge Luce regarding
Judge peWoife and other Matters.

Judge Luce, Immediately on his return
from Miles city last week, where he went
to attend court, was asked by CHRoN-
IcLE representative how he liked ] udce
DeWolfe.
Il like him we'll" replied Judge Luce,
"He opened court promptly at ten O'Clock,
without any attempt at display, and
made clear and concise, brief and COM
prehensive charge to the United States
Grand Jury, in such manner as to cover
all that was necessary. His charge to
Territorial Grand Jury was more at
length for the reason that our statutes
require certain matters to be given espec-
ial attention in the charges to grand ju.
ries. His appearance is modest and dig
nified, and he is pleasant to la fact
that will be noticeable to all of US who
have had to practice in this district for
the past year or two. His head is clear,
and his evident desire ID to comprehend
points raised by attorneys and to decide
them according to his best judgment,
which is aided apparently by careful
legal education and comprehensive re-
search of law. He is an honorable, con-
scientious judge, before whom it is q
pleasure to practice. The youngest and
most unsk'lled lawyer practicing before
him may rest assured that he will receive
the same consideration as the oldest and
most skilled practitioner, and that the
points he may raise will receive the same
consideration as those presented by the
the leading lights of the bar. He is a
courteous gentleman in every respect,
and, as far as l could understand from
the points raised and decided by him, he
is an excellent Judge"
"Will he remain in this districtT
II think not. In the first place, it is
natural that he should desire to continue
his residence at Butte, where he has a
nice and pleasant home where he Is
surrounded by old acquaintances with
whom he has associated for years, and
at whose solicitation ne was appointed
| to the position he now holds, with the
expectation that he would remain among
them. But if it could be decreed other
wise, and he We're permitted to remain
in this district, the people thereof could
hope for no better fortune, 80 far as the
judiciary is concerned. The probabil-
tiles are that the new appointee, Judge
Liddell, will come to this district. 1hear
him very highly spoken of and believe
that he will make good judge. Ofcourse
he will labor under the same disadvan.
tages as all judges sent to us from the far
east and south, in not being familiar with
our practice and modes of procedure
but SO long as a judge is generally well
grounded in law, the matter Of practice
ia comparatively of minor importance
which an Industrious lawyer will soon
learn"

NEW GOODS.
CAR LOAD LOTS.

Last Thursday we received car load
of new goods. We should have been
glad to have held for the ladies what
might be termed, an Eastern Opening"
But freights are 80 uncertain, that they
come on us unexpectedly. and we have
to forego the pleasure of opening days.
We have placed this large lot of early
spring goods on our shelves, and shall
take great pleasure in showing them.
The new goods comprise a portion of
nearly every department in our store,
and we are sure that they have been
selected with such care and good judg-
ment that they cannot fail to please the
most careful and fastidious buyer, and
although manufacturers prices have ai-
yanced on nearly everything, we are
marking our goods, by reason of the
STRICTLY CASH system lower than
ever before. Everything is coming
forward with dispatch and in a very
short time we shall be able to show as
complete stock-and of the best makes
and fabrics-as can be found west of St.
Paul. Almost every day We shall be
opening something new, and we respect.
fully invite careful inspection of both
goods and prices, whether ready to buy
or not.

scHWEITzER's REPLY.

WASHINGTON BAR, March 9th, 1888.
EDITOR CHRoNIcLE:-In your issue of
the 10th ult.. notice an item from your
Red Bluffcorrespondent, "Old Dynamite"
in which my name appears in an un-
favorable light and 1 beg leave to submit
few facts through your columns.
Dynamite, when it becomes old and
crystalized (fossilized in this instance)
becomes very unreliable in it's workings,
like bag filed with wind, when sudden
ly struck it goes off with pop, and pro-
duces what is known to miners as
stinkers. That has been the precise
action Of "Old Dynamite in this
instance.
l can see no reason land there is none
except in the wild imaginations of o. DIS
diseased mind) why should represent
myself as delegate from Red Bluff in
preference to Bozeman. and he tells
what he knows to be direct falsehood
when he SAYS that did.
As for me mot residing nor having
any interests in the camp I wouH say
that what is generally known through.
out the territory as the Red Bluff district
consists of Lower Hot Springs, Upper
Hot Springs and Washington mining
districts and my interests are in the two
latter.
In the Good Book there is recorded
an instance Of an ass speaking to Aif.
n aster, being somewhat skepitcal. 1
have had some doubts as to the literal
facts in the case, hut I have no doubts
about il now. for if an Ass can speak
nowadays, as o. D. has just done, there is
no reason why one could not speak in
the days of miracles.
His trying to convey the impression
an appointment on one of these sub.
committees would be sought after by any
person, leaves no donbt as to his assine
proclivities.
l did not propose the names of the
committee in this county and only con
sented to act after being requested to dc
so by the delegates from Washington Bal
and Pony, Hon. Samuel Word and w
W. Morris, since then and before the
meeting of the 25th, nit. Hon. l.. B
Olds, resident of Red Bluff has beer
appointed to act on the committees. A
position in which you are called upon to
spend your time and money in cnllsctine
proofs and subscriptions and getting little
in return, except the criticism of such
wind bags as Old Dynamite, is mot an
agreeable one and if he can relieve me
from the whole or any part of such
task, 1 would feel undermany obligations
TO him. but in his efforts to do Sol,
would suggest, that in his statements he
confine himself to the truth.

fed with the Presidents tariff views,
"Not in the least" replied he, 1.-THE price
of wool is away down now, and l don't
think it can get much lower. With free

The desirability of the CHRONICLE as
an advertising medium Is evidenced by
the number of applications for space
that we receive from eastern firms. They
recognize the farmers of this valley rs a
class who read the papers. The only
trouble with the eastern advertiser is the
fact that he wants newspaper space for
the same price he can get it fer from
eastern papers of like circulation. He
fails to consider the fact that in this new
country people are not so numerous, and
that labor is considerably higher.

Hon. F. X. Armstrong and family, who
for the past three months have been
travelling in California, visiting every
point of note in that glorious winter
climate, have returned to their home.
Mr.. Armstrong informs us that he is
glad to return and that Montana has its
charms that cannot be overcome even
by the mildness Of the genial winters of
the Pacific coast. While in Los Angeles
he called on all the former Bozemanites
and found them all enjoying prosperity
to a marked degree. Mr.. Morrill, has
lately purchased an interest in turni-
ture store and his son Herb. occupies q
position with his father, while the
younger son Matt, is employed in dry
good store, and just before Mr.. ARM
strong came away he had been stricken
down with the Scarlet Fever, the only
case that had made its appearance in
Los Angeles this. winter. Mr.. Kughen,
has made great deal of money in real
estate. Mr.. Morrill, and Mr.. Casterline,
have also been successful in their real
estate speculations and the reality fever
has not abated. Mr.. (Red) Clarke, is
alive, not withstanding the report to the
contrary.
Mr.. Armstrong was unaware of the
efforts being made in his behalf for the
judgship in. this district and feels very
grateful to his friends in their kind mani-
festations in his behalf.
Mr.. Armstrong says that he had often
thought that residence in a climate
where men could dwell under the
warmth OF a tropical climate was thing
to be desired; but he has come to the
conclusion that even this has its draw.

has made great deal of money in real

it is not likely that Little Turf will be
used by polo players, as his record would
soon be made public, and betting, which
now makes polo an interesting game,
would all be one-sided.
