LITTLE BELT ALL RIGHT.

From w. C. Lee, who was chairman o1
the republican convention held in this
in this city on Wednesday, who favored
the LEADER with a call before leaving
the city, we are informed that Oh OtteI
creek things are looking very lively. Al
his sawmill, Mr., Peterson, new conner
from the east, is making business hum
around him. He is putting in 5000 feet
of white pine and fir logs, preparatory to
erecting for himself a handsome and COM
modious frame dwelling 16x24, two stor-
les and ell. He is also making ready to
put up barn 6Ox1OO feet, with a capac-
ious underground cellar. Mr. Peterson,
as we are Informed, has three grown up
sons, who, like himself, are all rustlers.
W. 4. Stark, first ranch belew l. A.
Wallis has sold out his claim for ST.
700. 1t is unimproved land and the pur-
chaser, upon compliance with the law af-
ter survey is made, will make his entry
and final proof and obtain title from the
government.
Fifteen quarter section locations for
farms have been made in Mr.. Lees vicin-
ity within the past six weeks.
Wheat, oats and barley are all up and
looking we'll. The vegetables and root
crop raised i'll his reg ion of country, he
says. beat the world-and no one says
water ditch or irrigation once.
At this writing, the cabbage plants
grown in open air, are six to eight inches
high; lettuce in abundance; radishes root
ing finely; peas three to four inches high;
in bloom; and three inches
of snow on Sunday night last.
A considerable quantity of apple, pear,
cherry and plum trees has been trans
planted this spring, and all looking we'll.
Small fruits of all kinds uniformly
yield heavily and of excellent quality.
The wild raspberry is superior in size
and the yield is extraordinary.
Mr.. Lee is one of the Oldest inhabi-
tants of Otter creek-and one of the "Old
Virginia Never Tires'-and don't you
forget it. He waded through 1S inches
of snow to come to the republican con-
vention-that's so!-and it aint so slow
and not to believe it don't go.

SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS.

Miss Bessie Ford, the efficient superin-
tendent of the Cascade county schools,
held the spring examination of teachers
in the Central school house Saturday.
Five applicants were examined--three
gentlemen and two ladies-and all passed
very creditable examinations. Miss Ford
said that she was agreeably surprised at
the proficiency and high standing of the
applicants in all the various branches,
and she feels confident that the schools
under their charge will speedily advance
to the front. Too much praise cannot be
awarded Miss Ford for her untiring eff
forts in placing our schools in such ex-
cellent condition.

Barker and Neihart the Paradise of Mines
Clendenin, Montana, Corresponds nee
LEADER, April goth, 1889.-Times are be-
ginning to enliven up here. Three fami-
lies arrived last week from Dakota. They
will locate here and take chances with us.
They say there will be heavy immigraa
ton from the Black Hills, Dakota, to
these mining camps this summer.
The Barker camp and Neihart mining
districts, the Belt Mountain range and the
Great Falls country is the general talk of
the day in Dakota. They want long grass
and rich ore, healthy climate and moth
ing more; and these they will surely find
if they come here and stay. Welcome,
honest rustlers; but drones may stay
away.
We have also a goodly number Of new
arrivals from Billings, Livingston and the
Judith Basin country here. There has
been quite a few mining sales made here
in the past week. The highest price paid
was $4,000 for one-half interest in the
Lone Buzzard lode. Helena parties were
the purchasers.
A friendly set-to took place here today
between two of our leading married la
dies. Two black eyes and cut lip are
the trophies for one of them. The loss
of three pounds of long hair and a kinked
neck came to the happy lot of the other
The referee drew out of the house just as
the mill began. Gossip was the moving
cause.
Mr.. Mike Fouley's little child is seri-
ously i'll with fever. Miss Annie Mason
is lying very low with consumption. Mrs.
Hockett's eyes have today failed her.
She will go east soon to have them re-
paired. B. NJ.

The republicans have placed two able
candidates in nomination who will bear
favorable comparison with the democrat
ic. But this election is not one of men
but of principle. If the democrats can
carry the constitutional convention they
hope to carry the state by the gerryman-
dering jobs Of which they are capable.
Every republican should be at work for
his principles.

SETTLING UP RAPIDLY.

During the past two months there has
been tremendous influx Of settlers on
the northern and northeastern mountain
foothills of the Belt mountains, such as
has been rarely equaled in the northwest.
At the head of Ming couleez over twenty
families have located. The south fork
OF Sand Coulee is now fully settled. The
east fork Of Sand coulee has about twen-
ty new settlers. Between the sluice- boxes
OF Belt creek and the old Clendenin cor
raj on the east, over 200 settlers and fami-
lies have located. and it is promised that
within few weeks this section will be as
thickly populated as Highwood Creek
has been for many years.
HOW TO OBTAIN THESE LANDS.
The reservation by the U. ). land Of
flee Of five whole townships on account
of coal being found in certain sections,
has been somewhat of drawback to the
settlement of those sections. on account
of the mode of procedure not being
correctly understood. This, however,
has been thoroughly explained to the
immigrants and the result is that, within
the past three weeks, applications have
been made to enter on over 5000 acres of
land.
According to the rules of the land of
flee day will be appointed to receive
evidence as to the non-coal- l-bearing char
acter of the land and, on competent evi-
dence of such fact being produced, the
applicants will be allowed to make their
entries.

A CALIFORNIA SENSATION.
[Petaluma Courier.l

Itisreported thatthe sales of the" "California
Remedy" Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla, have
grown within a few months till they are now
really sensational. The way the fame of this
production has spread is simply marvellous.
Six months ago it wac unknown. To-day it
is all over the country. It is authoritatiyely
stated that they have been actually giving It
away in San Francisco to people afflicted with
dyspepsia, sick headaches, indigestion and
liver troubles, not to be paid for unless it
cured. SJfch practical tests are so startlingly
convincing as to be almost sensational 1t is
stated that two of the active principles of the
new remedy belong to the vegetable kingdom
Of California and are SO well known to us all
under common names that it would surprise
US If told them. But we are not surprised at
anything Californian, and this recent diseov-
cry Of the new medicinal virtues of its Yegeta-
bic kingdom is but another instance of the
astonishing possibilities of a soil and Climate
like ours.
