Livingston's Citizens Active.

The citizens of Livingston evince a
lively interest in railroad matters at this
time. The town is full of Cooke City peo-
pie, who are anxiously awaiting news OF
the Cooke City right of way through the
upper portion of the National park, from
Cinnabar, and are exerting themselves to
advance the project of railroad along
Shields river from Livingston to Castle,
A few days ago large meeting was held to
discuss the latter subject and the only
result accomplished was the appointment Of
committee of Livingston citizens to con-
fer with the people of Castle to see what
can be done towards granting money sub
sidy to some corporation which has in view
the building of the desired road.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
The Independents Suggestion of an Organ
ization Heartily Seconded.

The Independents Suggestion of an Organ
ization Heartily Seconded.
To The INDEPENDENT: I notice in this
mornings paper that you call attention to
certain cases of cruelty to animals, occur
ring on Broadway, and suggest as a remedy
the organization of a society for the proven
ton of cruelty to animals. Your suggestion
is good one and the writer of this article
has contemplated for some time making an
effort in that direction. as means to have
the laws now on the statute book enforced.
It is shame that the citizens of Helena
should permit the many cases of overload
ing and cruelty beating horses, that during
the summer season is almost daily occur
renee.
l think one of the best ways to put stop
to this crime is for the press to speak out
against it in tones that cannot be misunder-
stood and call the attention of the people
frequently to this subject.
Section 215 of the fourth division of the
revised statutes of Montana reads as fol-
lows:
Every person who shall be guilty of
cruelty to any horse, OK, mule, ass or other
domestic animal in any of the ways men,
toned in this section. shall upon conviction,
be punished by fine not exceeding one
hundred dollars, or by imprisonment in the
equity Jtll AOt cACccuAAAs 6lA AAOAtAS, VI Wy
both such fine and imprisonment, viz:
First. By overlooking, Overdriving, or
over working, or cruelty beating, torturing,
tormenting, or mutilating any of said ami
mails.
Second. By cruelty working any old,
manned, infirm. sick, or disabled domestic
animal, or knowingly allowing the same to
be done.
Third. By unnecessarily failing to ngo-
| vide any of said animals in his charge or
custody as owner or otherwise, with proper
| food, drink or shelter.
Fourth. By carrying or driving, or caus-
| ing to be carried or driven or kept, any of
said animals in any unnecessarily cruel
manner"
The city of Helena has an ordinance to
the same effect, but so far both the statute
and the ordinance have been dead letter
for two reasons: One, because the officers
whose sworn duty it is to enforce these
laws have failed to do SO, and because there
does not seem to be sufficient humanitarian
ism in Helena to see that the laws are en-
forced. The first section of the law is vio-
lated almost every day, and yet not a
single arrest is made. Among all of its
shortcomings during the past year, no
greater reflection rests upon our city gov
eminent than its utter imbecility in the
protection of dumb animals.
The practice of hitching up dogs to carts
and permitting live fowls to remain in
boxes on the sidewalks in the hot sun ought
to be prohibited at once. -
| Keep up the agitation on the subject
shame the officers into performance OF
their duty, and l am sure you will receive
the encouragement of all good citizens.

by all persons in the future who contem-
plate making improvements or erecting new
buildings on any business thoroughfare, can
now be seen at the Montana national bank
building, where extensive improvements

scaffolding, but at the heighth of the Sec

the form of box which catches all the
falling bricks, missiles or other rubbish.
Pedestrians can pass along the sidewalk

traffic is not blocked and it is a good

April Music.
The soiree of the Encore club is worthy
of more extended mention than was pos
sible in the issue of yesterday-as it was OF
a high order and the most finished musica
entertainment yet given by the club.
| The opening number was the brilliant
and sparkling Montana March," composed
by Prof. Yeager and dedicated to his fel
low-members of the club. Under his bator
it was rendered in such manner as must
certainly have gratitied him, as it did the
appreciative audience.
| Pinsuti's beautiful melody, "Good Night
Good Night, Beloved" was never more
accurately and enjoyably rendered than by
the clubs full chorus-the exquisite ex-
preston, the perfect meditation, ringing
still in memory's ear" Legend" and
Sweet Daisy were carefully rendered by
! double Quartette of ladies' voices under
the baton of Miss Shiland, and were SO
| pleasing that an encore was earnestly called
for and graciously responded to.
Meyerbeer's Fackeltanz by the orchestra
was on the programme AS the closing num-
Der of the first part. but it was given SC
brilliantly that the audience demanded the
| second encore of the evening, which was
responded to with a beautiful serenade, BY
Moszkowski.
Memberships exquisite forty-secon6
psalm, Gas Pants the Hart, After tn.
Waterbrook," constituted the entire second
part of the programme, and was beauti
fully given throughout. Filled with the
choice thoughts of the masters mind, care
fully and intelligently interpreted, it il
difficult to say which of them all was mos
pleasing: but the solos of Misses Shilant
and Brooke, and the quartette of male voices
certainly deserve mention. We think tn.
voices of the instruments would have addet
) to the effect, but unfortunately the ciul
could not obtain the scores in time.
| With the fall of the baton the audienc,
dispersed, exchanging expressions of pleas
ure and delight, and now with the swee
memories of the music for company W,
venture to express the hope that when tn
club again extend their compliments W
may be near at hand and unforgotten.

An electrician who is interested in the
construction of the new electric road to the
Broadwater says that it is only matter of
time when the overhead system will be sue
ceeded by the storage battery as propul-
sion for street cars. That is, each car will
carry it's own motive power. The trouble
with the overhead system is that the wires
in crowded street become q nuisance.
This, however, will not be even an annoy
ance over the route of the road to the Hot
Springs as it runs through the suburban
part of the city. 1t is doubtful if the pres
emit system can be improved upon, as far as
the comfort and ease of travel go. Several
well-known inventors are constantly al
work to perfect the storage battery system
and it will not be long before it will come
into general use.
Signs of spring are about on all sides

heard, the street sprinkler is busy, and tn,

be greater than ever. They are in color

The news of the appointments for the
United States land Office was received in
this city yesterday afternoon. There was
more or less dissatisfaction among republic
can politicians particularly over Swiggett's
appointment. While he is known to be a
capable man and a good fellow, it is be-
lieved by many that Frank Reese should
have received the appointment. He has
been in the office for six years and thor
oughly understands the business. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Bourquin leads many to
believe that the next United States marshal
will be Helena man.
