The Agony Ended.

The one absorbing topic which has
Hot Springs TO Sundance, and generally
from New Orleans to Puget Sound, mon
OpoliZing all conversation, even shutting
ont tin talk in the Tin City of the Hills
during the past week, was the sullivan
Kilrain fight. Constitutional conven-
tions, presidential appointments, the
| Cronin murder case and a thousand and
one other sensational matters were
ignored by the public mind, and rele-
gated TO the silent realms Of oblivion 10
give place to the contemplation and
earnest discussion OF the all absorbing
and momentous questions as to whether
the great mill would come of, which of
the world re nowned combattants would
win, who would draw first blood, how
long the conflict would continue before
one or the other would be Knocked out
etc, etc. 1t is gratifying to know that
the great exhibition, in comparison
with which the Paris Exposition is tame
and insignificant, is ended, and that the
mind of the nation may now be diverted
TO other themes, which. if less impor-
tant, will at least be acceptable in the
way of u change.
The result, as expected, was victory
for Sullivan, but the duration OF the
contest, two hours and eighteen min
utes, was in excess of all expectation,
and the number Of rounds ought,
seventy-fve. was also 4 matter Of gener-
al surprise. The fight took place at
Richburg, Mississippi, l02 miles from
New Orleans, in the presence Of an as
scmbled multitude reaching into the
thousands. Sullivan came out of the
fight With few slight scratches, while
Kilrain showed plainly the evidences
Of extreme punishment, and was bleed
| ing profusely from the ears, mouth and
nose, and was exceedingly weak. Kirain
won first fall and first blood, while the
honor of the first knock down is award.
ed 20 Sullivan.
The great slugging match is over. and
Sullivan still holds the championship as
| the most accomplished slugger, and
most disreputable living representative
of the prize ring.

Bearing Fruit.

A tour Of the real estate offices made
yesterday bv a JOURNAL reporter
elected the information that at each
OF them a number of letters of inquiry
had been received IRON prospective
settlers, touching the resources of this
locality, and asking any number Of
leading questions such al bona fide
e%migrants would be anxious TO know.
One question that nearly all of them
were solicitons about was, had we a
Touring mill in the vicinity and was
there . market for grain. 1t seems
that this Is regarded a prime essential
by prospective settlers and that an
Affirmative answer will be almost sure
to induce them TO come mere. There
is no doubt that there will be q very
decided emigration TO Montana this
year. Dakota had her share several
years ago, while for the past two
years settlers have been pouring into
Washington In such numbers N to
actually exceed the present. accommo-
dations for them. Now 1t is Montana's
turn and every locality must be pre-.
pared for them. The Touring mill
scheme, started two weeks ago by Mr..
Ullman, Is just what is needed to at.
tract them right here, and 1t must go
ahead. With this in operation we
have something tangible on which to
bass our claims when urging settlers
TO come here. With the ditch In
operation, rs 1t will be this season, and
a mill to buy the grain and turn it in
to flour, we can, with a little exer-
ton. have every acre of idle land In
our broad bottoms under cultivation
and producing for the support Of
those who live upon II. Settlers lie
what we want, but don't lose sight Of
the Touring mill. With the latter as
sured, the former as q matter Of
course.

BlHMyGHAM, May 23 "A political scheme
having fer its object the control of the next
state legislature has been started in Alabama
with fair prospects Of success. IL is nothing
less than a fusion Of the Farmers Alliance,
the Knights Of Labor and all other secret La
Dor organizations
The plan is for the Knights Of Labor to
nominate candidates for the legislature in
every county in the state next year, and
every member Of all labor organizations will
support these candidates II the plan is sue
cessfully carried out, it is asserted that the
labor candidates can be elected IN at least
forty counties in the state which will give
them a good working majority In both
branches OF the legislature
The Knights Of Labor appealed TO the last
legislature for the enactment Of certain laws
in the interest Of workingmen and organized
labor These bills all failed 10 pass, some OF
them being vigorously opposed by capitalists
and corporations One bill, the passage Of
which was especially urged by labor orgnni-
cations, was to prohibit the payment Of la
borers in store checks. II was vigorously
fought and defeated by capitalists
The movement 70 control the next legisla,
ture in the interest Of organized labor is
being quietly pushed, and the Farmers Al
lance and knights Of Labor have already
agreed upon IL The membership Of til,
Alliance is now about IA 900 in the state anC
