story thousands Of human beings and
animals were to be seen on the surface,
charred and blackened by the fire and in

Especial Correspondence Of the TRIBuNE.l
K1BBEY, July 15.-Mr. Connolly, a
prominent criminal lawyer of Wisconsin,
is stopping at Mr.. Wallis He is inter
ested at Barker.
Mr.. Wall is bringing in band of ITO
cattle which he lately purchased at Great
Falls.
Ranchmen here are putting up hay.
The crop will be short compared with
other years; yet, with the straw from
grain crops, there will be enough feed to
bring stock through the winter.
The prospect for grain crops in this
valley is very good. Wheat and barley
are in full head and in some fields the
straw is nearly four feet high. The straw
IS not so tall as in other years, but the
heads are long and if we'll filled the yield
will be up to the average. Beginning at
the Stark ranch, now owned by Mr.. J. J.
Ober, and extending up Little Otter for
miles is one vast waving field Of grain.
The grain on the adjacent bench lands is
also very fine. Especially is this the case
at Messrs. Johnson's, Thompson's and
Halls.
The gardens of this country are making
an abundant yield. EARLY peas and new
potatoes are fully ready for use, while
the second crop of lettuce and radlshes is
now about ready.

BUNE.-There was a lively session this
morning. Warren introduced memo
rial signed o. B. Whitford. 1t was saw
age attack on the Christians and the
Methodists who wanted to enforce the
Sunday law. 1t was very bitter and be-
fore the clerk reached the end Burleingh
moved to suspend the reading. The vote
on the proposition was ayes, 46; nays, a.
1t was evident that the attack did not
meet with favor among the members.
The committee reported adversely on
the proposition restricting appropriations
by the Legislative assembly for longer
period than two years.
The suffrage proposition was recon-
mended not to pass. ".."
There was long discussion as to the
printing of committee reports. The chair
decided that the favorable reports should
be printed under the rules, but the min
ority must be by the approval of the CON
vention, and that Callaways motion to
print was not in order.
Eaton introduced resolution to dis
charge two pages, two clerks and the as
sistant sergeant alarms. He said theil
services were not necessary and it was q
useless expense. The force should be
reduced.
Other members contended that such q
penurious spirit should not be tolerated
and that when the convention got down
to work the services of all of them would
be needed. The motion of Eaton to re.
duce the force was defeated by vote OF
Al to IA. The convention then adjourned
till 10 a. m. tomorrow.
