- Messrs. d. L. Clements Son have
an advertisement In today's issue, and

firm is not to be outdone in prices on
any class of Groceries. The Messrs.
Clements have built up nice business
by dealing squarely with all parties, and
no one carries more complete or cleaner
stock of goods. Special attention is
called to what the gentlemen have to
say.

he killed Monday IN LIE cray, and receiy-

an old hunter and has killed every spe-

heaped upon il, and afterward tight our

The above is one Of the strong planks

this: That "Wooley's Ranch was IA
myth as a voting precinct; that Wild

acme Of infamy. All these crimes
Of the past came like II food upon the

The following il an extract from Mr..

County Republican Of the 9th inst:
But why shonld the farmers and miners
pay taxes to support the sheep industry?
as you are pleased to call il. With few
exceptions. in this county, cheep men hav.
accumulated large fortunes. Men who a
few years since took small hocks on sha res
can now count their sheep on "a thousand
hills. aud have big bank accounts. They
have free access to the ranges and travel
through the country at will. while the
farmer is required to pay one dollar and
twenty-five cents per acre for his land

at n heavy expence-to fence his ground tn

crops. fail to see any Justice in legis-
lation.
How do the sheepmen Of Montana like
that? Ii is good Democratic doctrine, but
not many Democrats have the hardihood
to express themselves so plainly upon the
subject, and declare open war upon one
of the leading indust ries Of the county and
state. Mr.. Meadow says: ~ am in favor
Of equal rights to all, and special privileges

Justice, Bateman 4 Co.'S wool cir.
cular OF the 3D. inst. says: 1.-The pass
age OF the tariff bill on the 3Oth ult.
has infused II stronger tone into the
wool market. The demand has greatly
improved, and sellers who heretofore
have been most pressing are now either
advancing their asking price or with
drawing the wool from sale. The ten
dency is toward higher prices, and
quotations on most grades have been
advanced from to 2 cents per pound
above the lowest point OF thirty days
ago" Nothing but Democratic oppo-
sition has delayed the rise in the price
OF wool. Yet Democratic editors
would like to make woolgrowers be-
lisve that the tariff will not benefit
them. These editors should give their
entire attention to "dagos"
