THE OLD, OLD STORY.
A Conflict Between Cattle and Sheep Men
In the Judith.

A Conflict Between Cattle and Sheep Men
In the Judith.
The usually peaceable township of
Ubet has been torn by internal dissension,
and the sturdy stockmen have been brac-
ing their nerves with 40-rod pizen) for
the savage throes of threatened warfare.
Blood was in every eye and sulphur in
the air, and something was bound to hap
pen. The cause of this smouldering vol.
cano was the entrance and location of .
band of sheep belonging to Mr.. Charles
Severance of Okla, upon the range be-
tween Buffalo and Trout creeks in the
Basin. The range was one used and de-
sired by number of local cattlemen,
whose herds aggregate nearly 1000 head,
and while often grazed upon by bands OF
sheep belonging in the neighborhood,
this invasion from without seemed to
then, to call for vigorous protest.
On one or two occasions the cattle and
sheep became more or less mixed. No
sheep were injured, no threats indulged
in, but the result was an excited sheep
herder and an irate sheep foreman. The
latter lodged complaint with Justice
Redding of Ubet for disturbing the peace,
warrant was issued and five of the cat
tie owners were arrested forthwith. Ex-
citement ran high. Deer Lodge threat
ened the bold cattlemen. The neighbor.
hood could hear or talk of nothing else.
Monday, the 21st, was appointed for the
hearing.
But 10 and behold! Upon opening of
court no complaint was to be found
Prosecuting Attorney Smith then offered
so-called amended complaint, which
against the vigorous protest of the attor.
ney for the defense, was admitted by the
court. The crowded court room (the Ubet
dining ROOM was full to overlooking
After some legal wrangling the cour'
arose and calmly stated that the demurre,
of the defense was sustained and the pris
oners discharged. Great was the jubila.
tion OF the cattlemen thereat. The crowd
was pleased with what they had and
wanted more, but the struggle was ovel
for the time being. The flag of the cat
tie princes floats triumphant, the sheep
foreman is perplexed and the future Il
full of promise for further developments

NOTES ON GREAT FALLS.

Impressions Of an Observant Hoosier-
Facts for General Guidance.
Great Falls is the metropolis of North
ern Montana, an infant city full of life
and moviAsin the direction of great
city.
1t has the Great Northern railway
from st. Paul to Great Falls; the Mon
tana Central, which runs from Grea,
Falls to Helena, Butte and the coast; the
Neihart and Barker road, soon to be
completed into rich mining regions; the
Great Falls & Canada, 70 be finished
by September to Lethbridge, 26O miles
northwest; two smelters, immense watsr-
power, great mining interests, plenty Of
land and money. All these will certainly
make city.
There are now from 75 to 100 buildings
in course of construction, to cost $780,
600 or more. The city now has electric
lights and waterworks. Two thousand
shade trees have been put out. Work on
the dam for the new smelter is progress
ing, also excavation for the smelter build
ings, and work on the street railway has
l,een commenced.
The business houses show q better
quality Of goods and prices are some
what higher than in older states. Many
things sell just as cheap here as in
Evansville. 1t would not be profitable
to buy anything whatever, in view OF
coming here. Articles on sale here are
better adapted to the needs of this coun-
try. Extensive wholesale business Is
carried on, supplying surrounding vii
lagos and stockmen and ranchers with
goods in every variety and quantity.
Montana, city or country, cannot be
fully described. Demand and supply,
ways and means, are all SO different that
one at u distance cannot form a correct
picture. But this country is worth see-
ing. The varied scenery of mountains or
plains, springs, waterfalls, mines and
wonders Of nature will amply repay a
visit to this state.
Great Falls lies west of the reservation
opened two years ago and is five years
old, but the country about 1t has been
open to settlement longer. Home seek
ers are constantly coming. Land is being
taken rapidly. Two weeks ago thirty
farmers came to Toledo on the Milk river
from Kansas and Nebraska. A committee
spent two months last summer prospect
ing and seventy more families are expect
ed soon. The ''squatter" is occupying
nnsurveyed land, and soon the desirable
ranches will be taken.
Those unused to frontier life would do
well to have guide, for two reasons:
This country cannot be seen from train,
as some others; 1t will not show up is ex-
pected, nor present itself favorably to a
stronger who has heard such fabulous
reports Of it as have been circulated some
places. The peculiar and different make
up of the country must be taken into ac-
count.
Many persons will surely come and
find living, and competence. There is
room for thousands to prosper. Stock,
grain, garden, labor, mechanics, real es-
tate and mining open avenues for new
comers.
Yesterday saw the finest quarters l
have ever seen in butcher shop. They
were large and fat; these cattle had been
on the range all winter without grain or
shelter.
The more see and hear of this region
the stranger it seems, indeed paradoxical.

HE JILTEo HER.

Emma Schmidt Shoots Morris II. Duxn-
ham at Minneapolis. Because He MAJ
: ried Another.
MINNEAPOLIS, May 5.-Msss Emma
Schmidt, the young German girl whose
disappearance short time ago caused
her friends so much anxiety, turned up
again Friday evening and renewed tho
interest in her case by shooting Morris
NJ. Durham through through the right
lung. About the time Of the girl's
former disappearance Durham was
married to q lady at Northfeld, and the
news Of this caused her temporary in
sanity. About 9 o'clock in the evening
she went to the Durham residence, and
knocked at side door. It was opened
by Mr.. Durham, and without warning
the girl shot at him, the ball striking
just below; ne right nipple, penetrating
the lung. It is not known whether It
will prove fatal.
