A KENTUCKY WAR.

Troops.

LOUISVILLE, April 1s.-A special to the
Times from Harlan court house says: A
deadly fight occurred this morning at ID
o'clock seventeen miles east of here, up In
the Black mountains between n detach-
ment of state troops consisting of sixteen
privates, Lieutenant Milton and Sergeant

were fortified In an old barn. Five OF the
soldiers were wounded. IL Il not known
how many of the outlaws were killed, a.
they still have possession Of the
barn. Corporal Blantin was sent

after the firing began. The troops have
the harm surrounded and II will be impos-

Spring has come, the trees are bud
ding, wild flowers are in bloom
and the green grass springing up
everywhere (excepting in the
streets). Plenty of snow in sight,
but it is many miles off on the tall
peaks of the Rockies, and serves
only as cold reminder of the
past winter. Building operations
are in full blast, hundreds of men
and teams busy and earning good
wages. A visit to Missoula at the
present time, if you have no very
special ties elsewhere. will cause
you to settle down in this beauti-
full, enterprising and growing city.
Here you can make money and
enjoy good healthy living at the
same time.
The great natural resources of
Missoula county are being de-
veloped rapidly. and hundreds of
people from all parts of the United
States are immigrating to this
wonderful rich country. The city
of Missoula is peculiarly healthy,
having the advantages of high
altitude, being 5000 feet above
sea level, and yet being sheltered
from the cold East winds and open
to the chinook winds of the Paci-
fic Coast, caused by the Japan
Ocean current. Vegetation luxu-
rates in such climate; and we
have that grand combination, the
bracing air of the Rockies and the
comforts of an eastern locality.
Where is the man, woman or child
who does not long for the or
chards, gardens and lawns so nu-
merous in the East. Missoula is
noted for its many advantages,
but especially for its many COM
/, Portable homes.
By investing in Missoula real
estate at the present time you
will be sure to net a profit of at
least 100 per cent. in the next IL
months. Mcconnell, Cook & Co.
are sole agents for much of the
best property in Missoula, and Of
fer many bargains in all parts of
the city; but we wish to especially
-Scall your attention to the new
plat, McCormick's Addition No.
?, lying a half mile west of the
business center of the city, which
addition is commonly known as
the Garden and Orchard Add
ton" to Missoula; it receives that
name from the fact that the soil
is excellent and well adapted to
gardening. and there are hundreds
of thrifty and bearing fruit trees
growing on the lots. There is a
great deal of satisfaction in hav'
ing home. and instead of barren
lot well-cultivated garden with
plenty of water for irrigating pur'
poses. Fruits. flowers and vege'
tables of all kinds grow readily
and successfully on the lots in the

An Attorney Trying to Prove It Unco
stitutional.


stitutiona1.
a merry time was had in Justice Rivers
court Saturday afternoon. when the case of
Frank Kelley, picture vender. charged
with 'speddling without license" was called
mp for hearing. Kelley was defended by
Mr.. John Fairfield. and the city was repre-
scented by Mr.. Thomas r Shepard. For
SO unimportant Q case the counsels for both
sides took an unusual interest and for
time there was nothing but objections to
every question put and very little testi-
mony was given.
When the argument commenced then
was when the fun began, and great many
spectators were drawn into the courtroom
to hear Mr.. Fairfield's very peculiar and
original statement of the Case. He endeay.
ored to squash the city's peddling ordi-
nance by producing facts to prove that it
came in contact with the provisions of the
interstate commerce law, and was conse-
ouently void and unconstitutional. By the
clauses of the interstate commerce law. the
city went beyond its jurisdiction, when it
endeavered to force agents, soliciting for
firms outside of the state, to take out q
peddling license before plying their vocation.
Unjust as 1t may seem, the attorney con-
tended that it was law, over which the city
had no control, and demanded that his
client be discharged.
at the close OF Mr.. Shepard's argument
for the state, Justice Rivers said in render
ing decision:
ut seems to me that it would be q great
injustice to the resident agents and ped
dlers who live in the state to make them
take out q license, and then allow rival
from the outside who comes in the city and
works In opposition and takes trade away
from his resident brethren, to be exempt
from the customary taxation. l don't be-
lieve the lawmakers intended that such a
construction would be placed upon the
clause and find the defendant guilty and
fine him $50 and costs of action"
Mr.. Fairfield promises good deal Of fun
In the scase yet, and has given notice of
appeal 70 the superior court. where he will
contest this case and also several Others of
q like nature which have since come into
his hands. He declares that the ordinance
is clearly unconstitutional. and that be will
be able to conclusively prove that such is
the case before the higher court.

Il has been decided that Dillon and

upon their future course of action. The
question TO be settled is whether they
should deliver themselves up and serve
out their terms of Imprisonment or go

Despite all wrangling at the late

BUTTE, Dec. 9.-No civil suit has for a
long time attracted as much attention as
that of Carter a. Owen VS.. John Z. Lloyd.
The court room contained many specta-
tors all day long. The question was ons
of general interest, involving as il did
what must constitute a contract with
real estate broker. The counsels' pleas
occupied about four hours Of time.
Judge De Wolfe and George w. Staple
ton spoke for the plaintiffs and John For
bis for the defendant. Special findings
were filed by the plaintiffs for the guid.
ance of the jury.
QAbout 4:D o'clock the jury went out.
On the first ballot they found themselves
standing nine 10 three in favor of the de-
fendant. An hour later they brought in a
verdict for the defendant and assessing
the costs to the plaintiff.
The costs in this case are especially
heavy in view Of the fact that the plain
tiffs have for the past nine months kept
$4,000 tied up in one of the city banks.
This belongs TO TO the defendant who can
now recover il with interest. An excep-
ton to the verdict was noted and the case
may be appealed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Harrison has
