The free bridge On estion, for obvious
reasons is now being agitated and will
undoubtedly be followed by successful
results. Mr.. Cameron of the West GAL
latin last week circulated petition,
which was generally signed in the neigh.
borheod of the West Gallat.n and at
Bozeman, asking the commissioners to
build new bridge over the West Gal
latin two miles from the present private
toll bridge. Mr.. Cameron says that the
new site will be more convenient to
those who live on the west side Of the
stream and will not lengthen the road 10

He says that the bridge can be built for
two thousand dollars and that it will be

KILLED NEAR LIVINGSTON.
The Body Of Dan Miller, of Ookedale,
found Out to Pieces on the Rail-
road Track.

The mansgled body of Dan Miller, a
coal miner at Cokedale, was found lying
along side Of the Northern Pacific track
on Monday last. at point west of Living
ston. The body was so frightfully cut
up that no one at first recognized the
man. The body was at once taken to
Livingston by the work train and there
buried. II has since been learned that
the unfortunate victim. was DIN Miller

midnight. Since then however some
very ugly rumors hays prevailed in
Livingston regarding the death of the
man, several persons claiming that they

was found, during TIE night.

vestigated. The jury went to the place
where the body was found, about two
miles from Livingston, and after further
deliberation, concluded to rs investigate
the matter on Saturday. 1t is claimed
by some that the man was murdered and
his body thrown on the track to cover
up suspicion. Nothing was found on the
person of the dead man to even disclose
his identity. The matter has created
considerable excitement at Livingston,
and if he was murdered, every effort
will be made to bring his murders to
justice.

posed to have had considerable amount
of money on his person when he was
killed. 1t is stated that he endeavored

doing so he exhibited his wealth in the

conveyed up the track. Two bullet

Sand 0oulee Goal.

In recent newspaper interview
President Hill, of the Manitoba, spoke as
follows about Sand Coulee coal:
"A.large force Of men is now employed
In these mines night and day, which are
being systematically opened snd deyel-
oped. In short time the output will
be 900 to 200 tons daily, and this will
be regular. The shipment of coal from
the mines will be in excess of that
amount should there be den aod for il.
The coal Is of an excellent quantity. On
this point l speak advisedlv. We had
the coal veins and their quality examin-
ed by Prof. Newbury, of the New York
school of mines. The gentle nan is an
expert and he pronounced the coal the
best he had seen in the Rocky Noun
ta'ns. The Montana Central engines
are using it in preference to any other
kind of coal, and the Manitoba company
will use it as far east as the Red River.
There is an eighteen foot veia at Bel
knap, on the Gros Venttes reservation.
but it is not as good as the Sand Coulee
product. Following the opening OF the
mines will be the building of an extern
sive coking plant, the coking qualities
of the coal being unsurpassed. As to the
supply, it is practically inexhaustable.
The veins are from forty to fifty feet in
width. What Montana needs and must
have is cheap fuel. The greater portion
of the ores in the territory are low grade.
The higher grade ores alone can now be
worked with profit. Montana's pros
perity will be greatly enchanced when
the lower grade of ores can be treate d
and, after paying mill expenses, leave a
profit to the owners"

years and we have heard of Sand Cou.

meth not to the contrary. However,
nobody has seen any of the coal yet in
this neck of the woods. Now is the time
to ship it to Butte. There is impending

Outside Of the jury room 1t has been

to have known the deceased by sight,

men going toward the railrosd track

shots IN the direction OF the scene OF the
death about the time he was supposed
to have been killed. The engineer of the

THE REGISTRATION LAW.

We are pleased to learn, through his
paper, that Hon. Will Kennedy still
stands pat on his original proposition re-
garding the registration law. In politics
we differ with Mr.. Kennedy, but we are
pleased to accord him just praise tor the
firm and Conscientious stand ne has taken
in opposition to thissproposed legislation,
which has for its sole purpose the dis.
franchisement of COW BOYS, wood chop
pers and other who are at i,olated points
IN speaking of the matter. Mr.. Kennedy
says:
''In fact, The Age has vet to hear of
any registration law which has not been
or can not be made the means of gross
frauds in elections, and the republicans
and democrats who regard registration
law as panacea for all the ills which
befall the ballot-box in Montana terri
tory and who are willing to accept any
bill bearing the name of registration re
gardless of its provisions, show thereby
that they have not studied the subject
very thougntfullv or conscientiously."

Several of our territorial exchanges

seven republicans and four democrats,

said anything about contesting the elec-

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO2

A local writer recently stated that the
election returns from old moss covered
Gallatin," might he interesting when
compared with those of another county
which he named. While the CHRONICLE
cannot endorse the appellation,it does not
fail to recognize the fact that the election
returns from this county shows very
emphaticalv that the Gallatin valley is
getting left in the race of progress. The
increase of voters in this farming district
is mere nothing compared with the in
crease made in the smaller farming COM
munities, adjacent to the large consuming
centres, the mining towns, and other
places where large bodies of men are
employed. What is the cause of this
Gallatin has the best, the largest. the
richest body of agricultural land in the
territory. Crops are produced more
cheaply than anywhere else in the terri
tory. Under these conditions then, it
must be because the farmers fail to get
compensating profit for their product
1t must be because there are no manu-
featuring enterprises at home, no towns
large enough to create thrifty demand
for our surplus. Grain at its present
price, even in this favored valley, cannot
be raised at profit, hence, it is not sur
prising that there has been an increase
of less than hundred farmers in this
valley, with its broad acres, in the last
two years, while at all other points the
increase has been so marked. The
CHRONICLE ia not pesslmist, anything
but that; but it regards the situation as
little less than serious, unless Bozeman
can find the means of cheaper transpor-
tation or better still, provides the means
for larger consumption at home.

An Unfortunate Mine.

CALUMET. Mich, November 30.-A fire
was discovered in the Calumet and
Hecla mine this morning. A large party
of men were working. The fire made
rapid headway. All made a rush for the
surface, but eight are missing, That
they are dead is certain. The mine is
completely covered with dense smoke
and the fire looks worse than did the
last one, but being nearer the surface it
is believed the damage financially will
not be SO great.
The company is making desperate
efforts to control the flames aud rescue
the miners, but IT looks as if the case is
hopeless. The men are all Cornishmeu.
The scene about the mine is heart-rend-

their grief and lamentations is added the
