A Strange Find--where is the Owner?

Messrs. Thomas Lacy and W. J. Pack
ard, who came from their homes on the
Shonkin Monday, found near the juno
tion of the Highwood and Shonkin roads
new, we'll preserved leather valise,
which, to all appearances, could not have
been exposed to the weather but few
days. Tt was discovered in the snow some
distance from the Travelled trail, and rest
ing right end up as if it had been set
there by the owner. Attached to the
handle of the valise was short piece of
cotton rope doubled and just about long
enough to go oyer the shoulder. The
gentlemen who found it are at loss to
account for how it came there, as it was
too far from the road to have been
dropped from a wagon or pack animal.
They brought the valise to the city and it
was opened to see if the owners name
could be ascertained. A statement Of ac-
count made out in the name Of "Henry
VILLAINS by Fl. R.. Marcy, of Forsythe,
Montana, bearing date of May 9th, 1887,
was the only paper found. 1t may be
that the owner lost the valise unknow-
ingly; and then again it is possible that he
was travelling, became bewildered and ex-
hausted and had to leave it. He may
then have wandered into some out of the
way place and perished by freezing to
death Messrs. Lacy and Packard will
make an investigation when they return
and see if they can discover a trail in the
snow. If SO they will follow it and en-
deavor to find where it leads.
The river press., 1888-01-25

Washington, whose purses possess the re-
quisite length, and other well -to-do resi-
dents of tho territory will be invited to
''chip ina Montana phrase for the
purpose of forming as large contingent
fund" as possible; it is hoped at least
100000 can be raised With this neat
little amount slowed away in their inside
pockets the delegation will go to the
national capital. Their immediate object
will be to entertain every susceptible
congressman right royalty, and they will
play their game sup to the limit another
Montana expression long as the money
lasts Then, after they have impressed
congress with the idea that Montanians
are the best fellows in the world. they will
show it's members what a crying shame it
is that territory capable of producing
such princely entertainers should not be
given statehood, and they confidently
hope for the best results. The method Of
attack is at least an improvement over the
Dakota scheme of tiring congress out
with longwinded speeches, and who shall
say it is a hopeless one?
But what a jolly good time of it the
congressman will have, though!

A New County Commissioner

The appointment of the one remaining
commissioner needed to FL the Choteau
county board has been pending for some
time. Monday Probate Judge Tattan an
nounced the appointment of Mr.. David G..
Browne of this city. Mr.. Brown is gen
tleman thoroughly qualified, by business
training and experience, to FIJI the diff
cult position with honor to himself and
satisfaction to the people generally He
is first-class business man, thorough
financier and accountant, and is as we'll
posted as to the needs and requirements
of the county as any citizen who could
have been selected. The position is one
that is never sought for, reluctantly ac-
cepted, and usually relinquished with
pleasure by any one called upon to fill it
at the expiration of his term. Some one
has to assume those duties, and Mr..
Browne has consented to do it,-though
in doing 50 he sacrifices much of his per-
sonal comfort and devotes large share
of his valuable time and business expert
ence to position which affords little or
no recompense for the amount Of work
and responsibility involved

How is This For Montana.

There are many who are not yet aware
what progress the fruit growers of Mon
tana are making in the older settled val
leys. To those we submit the following
extract from the Rocky Mountain Hus
bandman:
"A week or two ago we mentioned the
Alexander variety of apples as being very
large and named the variety as being
among those adapted to growing in the
we'll protected locations. To give more
correct idea of this fruit we will state that
VIM. Kennedy, of Missoula, grew great
quantity of this apple last year and they
were very large, some of them weighing
from fourteen to sixteen ounces. A
gentleman in the Bitter Root valley who
grows some fruit took the pains to count
the number of apples of this variety that
it took to fill an ordinary apple box and
informed the writer that forty four was all
that could be placed in the box and adj
nit of the top being nailed down. Thus
packed for shipment the box weighed
forty pounds
