store occupied by the Mansfield Drug COM
pany, which with Schwartz's store was
completely destroyed. The Gayoso hotel,
which is in the rear of the building, was in

tanned. The Mansfield Drug company's

General sheridan,s Memoirs.

Of General Sheridan's memoirs, which
are now being delivered to subscribers in
Bismarck by Mrs. Linn. the agent. the.
Helena Herald says:
General Sheridan's memoirs in two hand
some volumes are being delivered to sub
scribers in our city. They are written in,
a charming, easy style, and prove as fas-
cinating as novel. After the close Of the
rebellion Sheridan was sent down to Texas
and received unwritten instructions from
General Grant that he was to aid the Mex
cans in the expulsion OF the French.
General Grant regarded this French
occupancy of Mexico as part aud
parcel of the war of secession and did not
consider the war closed until the French
were driven out. The people of this coun-
try will learn as something new the part
that our army PLAYED, and they will
further learn that if Seward had not weak
ened, Grant, Sheridan and most or our
army men would have openly attacked
the French. 1t is better as il was, for it
was the scheme of Louis Napoleon and not
OF the French people to invade Mexico.
Sheridan had his personal revenge fully
3gratified, for he was with the Germans
when Napoleon surrendered in defeat and
disgrace. G, @

Mail Matter Miscarried.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12.-Captain Leary
who commanded the United States man-of-
war Adams at Samoa and to whose prompt
action is ascribed the failure of the Ger
mans to make open war on the natives un-
til after his departure from the islands,
learned since his arrival in San Francisco
that important letters were addressed to
him by Rear Admiral Kimberly and by the
state department., which failed to reach
time and one ordering him to cruise
in other waters did reach him.
He is now instituting an inquiry as to the
failure to receive his mails. The pOstofflce
at Apia is in the hands of the Germans, and
all mail matter, whether addressed to Of
fcials or to private parties. is handled by
them. Mails are carried from here by
island of Tutuila, where they are taken on
board by the German schooner fer Apia
sixty miles distant. The American man
of-war took all official mail from Apia
to meet the steamer at Tutuila
on her, way to San Francisco
to guard against any delay or tampering
with the mails. In order to prevent the
the mails, at the request of the Americans
on the islands many of the letters which
went on the steamship Alameda was en-
closed in envelopes addressed to the Amer
ican consul in the expectation that the
man-Of-war would meet the steamer at
Tutuilo. AS complaint had frequently
been made that mail intended for Ameri-
can citizens at Apia had been delayed, and
at times altogether withheld by the Ger
man authorities, Captain Leary is prose-
cutting an inquiry to determine whether
his official mail was tampered with.

The Land Forfeiture Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The conferees on
the general land forfeiture bill came to-
gether to-day, and while they adjourned
without voting an agreement, a spirit of
concession was shown which gives prom
Use of an ultimate agreement. Mr.. Stone,
who heretofore steadfastly adhered to the
original house proposition, to-day inti-
mated he was prepared to accept the sen
ate bill if an additional section were at
tached providing for test suit in the
United States supreme court to decide the
question as to the power of congress to de-
clare the extensive forfeiture proposed by
the house of all lands opposite those Sec
tions of railroad lines uncompleted within
the time fixed in the granting acts. Should
the court declare in favor of the house
view, Mr.. Stone held the next congress
should Immediately proceed to pass COM
plete forfeiture bill.
The senate conferees did not think we'll
Of this proposition. The held that the
effect of the passage OF the bill
ndnce tnat latt,ars shape 81 rSs4 would be to
railroad lands prepared to take up home
steads upon successful issue of suit But
it the decision of the court should sustain
the railroads in their holdings (Which the
senators expected would be the case) then
these settlers would suffer great hardship
and be placed in position similar to that
lands. To sustain this view the senate
conferees cited Oklahoma as case in point

though that measure expressly provides
that settlers were not to be admitted to the

city for several days in the interest of the
southern exposition that will be held dur

to-day told reporter of the American that
while in Washington recently he had an

about his acceptance Of the position Of Sec
retary of state in General Harrison's
cabinet and said that General Harrison

after the election and did it in such a cor

Pierce Calls on Harrison.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 13-Russell b. Har-
rison returned from New York this morn
ing and had long conference with his
father. He leaves tonight for Helena,
Montana. The associated press bulletin
this afternoon announcing that congress
had formally declared Benjamin Harrison
elected president was the first information
the general received Oh the subject. 1t is
understood the president-elect has been
holding back his cabinet appointments
until after the count of the electoral and 1T
is therefore anticipated that several i'm
ported letters containing cabinet tenders
will leave here in few days. Ex Gov
ernOr Gilbert Pierce Of Dakota was among
to-day's visitors. He passed an hour in

GETTING DESPERATE.
The Dominion will Endeavor to Head of
the Reciprocity Movement.

1n6 DOmln1On Will En06AVOr to Heal on
the Reciprocity Movement.
OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 1s-It is learned on
the best authority that the Dominion gov
ernment has resolved upon novel scheme
to counteract the effect of the growth of
the unrestricted reciprocatory movement
in Canada. Sir John Macdonald, it is be-
lieved, will seek to secure the adoption of
a joint memorial from the senate and house
of commons to her majesty to send a
member of the royal family to Canada
next summer to visit. 1t is expected that
it will create such wave Of popular en-
thusiasm as will put a damper on any
scheme to bring about the absorption of
the Dominion by the United States. The
Duke of Edinburg, son of Her Majesty. is
suggested as the likely visitor, but alleged
correspondence with che imperial authori-
ties seems to show that the Prince of Wales
fav0rs sending her eldest son. The present
heir apparentis is said to have visited Canada
under similar circumstances in 1851 and his
triumphal tour of Canada is regarded by
the government as likely to have been no
heartier than the proposed reception to the
next royal visitor.

Il Word TO THE LEGISLATURE.
The Repeal of the Presen4 Stock Law
Would be Disaster.
LIVINGSTON, Nj. r, Feb. II. 1889

LIVINGSTON, NJ. T., Feb. IL, 1889.
EDITOR TRIBUNE: The following COM
ment on the repeal of the Dakota Stock
Law" is taken from the Helena Herald of
the 9th inst:
The stockmen of Montana are beginning
to awaken to the fact that there is a bifl
pending in the Dakota legislature that
concerns them almost as much as 1t does
their Dakota brethren, The bill is to re-
tagions diseases among livestock, and
has already passed the lower house of the
dakota legislature by small major
ity;, II the law is repealed, it
will throw open the. ranges of Dakota to
shipments OF diseased animals from all
eastern border of Montana to similar dan
ger. The stockmen OF this territory hope
to see the measure defeated and the Dako-
Ia law lett as it is, since it is of great help
to the Montana law in keeping out infec-
tl0us and contagious diseases.
is it not fact that the act referred to
representative from the stock raising por-
tions Of Dakota in the legislature Of two
years ago? Is it not now recognized that
a law OF this character is just as necessary
at this time as it was at the time of it's pas
sage? Then if the objection to the
law ACoIo ~ lGC ullWlS6 Or UlSnOneSC exc
cution in the hands of the officers intrusted
with its execution, is that valid excuse
Tor the repeal OF. the law? Is it possible
that the present legislature of Dakota re-
CARDS it impossible to find an honest man
capable OF supervising the execution of
law intended to protect the great stock in
terests of Dakota, or is it rather policy of
economy intended by the said legislature
regardless of the great and growing de-
mands OF the stock interests of Dakota?
1t cannot be that the Dakota legislature
intends to remove all safe guards from the
stock interests of Dakota, thereby making
1t necessary for Montana to establish
quarantine against Dakota stock as well
as a,s that t, Which would otherwise be shipped
through Dakota into this territory as IN the
case OF little over two.years ago.
While the Dakota legislature may not
contemplate any Snch thing as a quaren-
tlne against the shipment of stock from
that territory into this. such would be the
necessary and natural result of enforcing
Montanas strict stock and quarantine
laws. The stock interests of this territory
are altogether too great and important to
take any risk Of infectious or contagious
diseases coming from section without any
suf1lclent law to prevent that result. From
what know Of the stock interests of Da-
kota am of the opinion that it would be
an unWise act to abolish the present stock
law unless some other and possibly, better
provision takes its place.
