ing up and down the valley as far as the
eye can reach and the air is thick with
smoke and yet people familiar with the

Of the river.
BODIES CHARRED AND BLAcKENED.
An hour ago the writer completed a
tour of the mighty wreck in this vicinity.
Dozens OF human beings and animals
were to be seen on the surface, charred
and blackened and in such state Of de-
composition that the strongest men could
not more than glance at them.
Eighty-six men from Altoona, under
the orders of the sanitary officials, are
scattering dlsinfectants over the wreckage
that the railroad bridge stopped
MANY BODIES STILL HID,
Mr.. Kirk declares thousands of bodies
will yet be found in this territory alone.
The great trouble thus far experienced at
the bridge las been caused by the mass
of telegraph wires that reaches across the
various spans through which the water has
ed. Line men are badly needed to help
remove the wires and Kirk says that as
soon as they are gone he will rush debris
through by the acre.
The problem of the hour is the disnosal
of the debris about the Pennsylvania
railroad bridge. Unless 1t is soon gotten
rid OF the stencil will be so overpowerng
no human being can withstand it.

WELCOME TO TOWN,
GREAT FALLS EXTENDS A HEARTY
GREETING TO THE EDITORS.
some Notes by Professor Fred w. Ander.
son-The Lands, Crops and Live
stock of Montana the
Golden,

The Editors who are with us TO-DAY
could remain here for weeks and months
constantly learning some new feature
about this wonderful region as regards its
early history, its present position as the
coming great state of the northwest. its
truly remarkable and inexhaustable min
eral, stock and agricultural resources.
A great deal has been said about the
resources Of Montana; great deal which
has sounded like the proverbial "boom
talk" but which in reality has been merely
sober, almost somber recital of facts we'll
known here. And yet these very resour-
ces are only in their infancy! What talk,
what renown for ''Montana the Golden
may they not occasion when they attain
the colossal proportion of mature devel-
opement!
WHAT A WONDEROUs CHANGED
Here where within the memory of COM
paratively recent settlers the bison roam
ed in countless herds; where the antelopes
could be counted in bands of thousands
where the wolves ranged in ravenous
packs making night hideous with their
wild, wierd howllng; where none but the
undaunted savage could safely roam,
here say has arisen sphinx-like from
the ashes of a long and dreary past this
glorious state, destined to wave the proud
est and most inspiring banner of the
whole northwest.
FARMS FOR THE PEOPLE.
Already the Oklahoma boom, for only
a boom it was, is in the throes Of DEATH
That boom was too great for Oklahoma
to support, hence its doom. But Montana
has been unaffected by this "craze" The
steady tide of true home seekers still
streams IN. Millions upon millions of
acres Of the choicest land are awaiting
for these sturdy, self-relant people, who
seek to build up comfortable homes in
our midst for themselves and their chill
dren after them.
In the interest of the United States ag-
ricultural department have visited many
portions of this goodly land, and every
where new and increasing light has
daWned upon me as to the future majesty
OF Montana as a state
FLOURIslIING CROPS.
e Our brethren of the agricultural press,
who are with us for brief period, will
find am confident that our crops of all
kinds are in flourishing condition de-
spite the undenable fact that we have
suffered an unusually dry spring. They
will find that not only the staple crops,
like wheat, oats, rye and barley, promise
an abundant harvest, but that our fields
md gardens contain crops usually consid-
cred less cosmopolitan in their nature,
such as corn and tomatoes, to say nothing
of all kinds of vegetables and roots, are
n splendid condition. Potatoes were in
oloom along about the Goth of May on at
east one ranch to my personal knowledge
md corn is now foot high on piece of
bench land (sod plowing) on the same
nnch.

Has Spotted the Man.

We have complained time, and again,
OF the mail service on the NJ. 4 G. r. R.,
but without effect The mails on the 6
p. m. trains since December last have
been carried by so often and with such
regularity that our citizens have now be-
come accustomed to it. 1t remained for
the Scottsboro Age to discover the indi
vidual. The Age says:
In this Taper last week appeared a
paragraph concerning the negligence Of
some official in the postal service on the
M. & G. railroad. Since the appearance
of the paragraph referred to We have, by
the aid of parties concerned, developed
the fact that Uncle Sam has in his en-
ploy postal clerk on this route, named
w. E Campbell, who is frequently gull
ty OF gross negligence as to the discharge
of his official duty. On frequent occa-
sions this gentleman is charged with not
distributing the mails along the route,
but instead carries them through to the
terminus of the route to be doubled back
on the next pc tal clerk. Last Monday
morning this gentleman went up the
road and put OFT o:ily one paper at this
place; and he is ,narged with tardiness
in receiving Iii nis along the line. The
U S. postoff.c ,tficials should look after
all such gen men of elegac tleisure
and supply their ,,iacts on the trains
with men who viii attend to theirduties.

The Truth Told.

A member of the staff Of the At
lanta Constitution WAS sent to KEN
per county, Miss. to ascertain the
exact facts about what is known as
the "Wahalak Riot" He was under
instructions to discover the truth and
tell it without evasion or abridgment
These instructions he has faithfully
and fearlessly followed out, and the
Constitution in its Sunday issue
prints an account of the causes which
led to the trouble and Of the trouble
itself. We shall make enough ex-
tracts from this to present the facts
fairly and squarely to our readers.
And, to begin with, the correspond
ent puts the whole matter in a nuts
shell as follows:
The Wahalak tragedy was not
the result of race war. It simply
was an unlawful attack upon the
home of colored man, and the kill.
ing of two of the assailants; and the
subsequent pursuit and murder of
several black men by lawless whites.
This lawlessness was permitted to
gather force through cu'pable in
difference of an incompetent sheriff,
at whose feet the responsibility must
be laid. In this respect, few men
like Sheriff Smith, of Birmingham,
would do much toward lifting Miss
sissippi out of the slough.-Mobile
Register.
There is no protection against the
repetition of such crimes unless the
perpetrators are brought to justice
and punished. As long as such law
lessness can ride rough shod over a
community with the torch and the
murderOus rlf1e, ana the guilty. es-
cape without even the shadow of an
investigation by the legal authorities,
SO long will such offenses be posi-
BILE.
An indignant and outraged public
opinion should not rest until the
authorities of Mississippi probe this
matter to the bottom and deal out
Justice to the offends, whoever they
be. Good people Of neither race
want the good name and peace and
security of their homes disturbed or
put in jeopardy by the wicked or
reckless, black or white, and are not
disposed to shield or cover their
crimes.

The Coroner's jury having in charge

tail on the night OF December Sth last
at Birmingham, failed to agree and rens
dered two reports, as follows:
We, the undersigned jurors, duly EN-
panneled and sworn, from an inspection
of the body, and after hearing the testi
mony, find that the name OF the deceas,
ed was A. D. Bryant; that he came to
his death on the night OF December Sth,
1888, from the effects of wound infict-
ed by bullet from gun in the hands of
one of the sheriff's posse at the Jail We
further find that the officers at the iail
were negligent Y stationed and that there
was reckless and unlawful shootidg, but
from the testimony we are not advised as
to whether the killing of the deceased
was unlawful, as the testimony does not
show where the said Bryant was stan l.
