ROADS AND HIGHWAYS.

At last a conviction for obstructin@ Il
public highway has been secured in the
district court 4 few years since it was
difficult, If not impossible, to obtain such
q conviction in this county. A number Of
indictments during the last few years have
been found for that offense in this county,
but the defendants have in every instance
been acquitted. People seemed as if they
did not want to believe there was any law
against the obstruction Of highway. An
unfortunate decision made by Judge Wade
as district judge some four or five years
ago. and published broadcast throughout
the Territory, to the effect that there were
no highways in Montana, was the occasion
of an immense amount of mischief. Every
man in Deer Lodge county who wanted to
obstruct highway Or change one to suit
his fancy, carried that decision around in
his pocket. Every defendant who was in
dcted had the decision ready to exhibit as
his justification. To this decision VIC be-
lieve is to be attributed much of the indif-
ference of people regarding the interfer
ence with established highways. But
Judge Wade had made great mistake.
There were highways in Montana. Whether
they had been laid out by the board of
county commissioners or not, or whether
by any other public authority or not, still
there were public highways.
There is belief abroad among many
people that the only way public highway
can be established is by the board of county
commissioners. There are very few Of our
highways that were SO established. A road
may become public highway by being
used and worked as such; it may become
such by grant or dedication, as where a
person plats town and streets are opened
and accepted by the public, and in either
case an obstruction of such road is as
much violation Of the law as the obstruc-
tion of a highway laid out by public au-
thority. No one ought Of his own mere
pleasure undertake to obstrnct or in any
way change public highway. If the road
ought to be- changed or vacated let him
go before the board Of county commits
Hioners and have it done by authority.

Frank Peterson, foreman Of the p. L. s.
Co., shipped n carload of his own horses
yesterday for the Eastern market When
about ten miles from town the car was dis
covered to be ON fire, and before it could
be brought to a standstill it was blazing
merrily. As soon as possible after the
stoppage Of the train the side door of the
car was opened, but as the horses were ex-
cited on account Of the fire, considerable
difficulty was experienced in making them
take the necessary jump of four or five
feet from the car to the ground. BY tlint
of hard work, however, the horses were all
unloaded without damage By fire, but it is
feared that the majority of them are Grip
pied through having to jump from the car.

Charles Wartield who was arrested Aug.
23, by Marshal Furay, for holding up the
Butte and Helena stage, near Boulder in
November, 1884, was given hearing be-
fore Commissioner Dingcvon last Friday
night in Butte He had been up for exam
nation before, but owing to the absence of
w. D. Cameron, the principal witness, the
hearing was postponed. Cameron testified
that he recognized Warfield as one of the
parties engaged in holding up the stage
and one of those who did the shooting
which resulted in witness receiving a
wound which came near being fatal Cam
eron was ut that time sheriff of jefferson
county, and it was his arrival on the scene
which drew the robbers off aud precipi-
tated the fight, which ended in his being
wounded. He was unable to swear that
Wartield in1erfered with the L. S. mails,
and, as that was the charge against him in
this instance, he was discharged. 1t is un-
derstood that the officials of Jefferson
county want him for attempted murder,
and his liberty will probably be but short,
though it looks as if conviction wouldn't
be likely, as the statute of limitations, five
years, has expired.

THOMAS Fl. CARTER RENoMlNATED BY
UNIVERSAL ACCLAIM.
Word Sent to Mr. Carter in Washington, But
There Being No Response Late Last
Evening, the Convention Adjourned
Until 10 a. m. This Morning.
Special to the NEW NORTu- " EST,

BUTTE, Sept. 10.-Montana has rarely
before seen SO early aud numerous assem-
bling of delegates at political convention
as has to-day been manifested i'll Butte, a
day prior to the first Republican Congress
sional Convention. Many Of even the re-
mote counties have full delegations pres
ent, and at the preliminary caucus this
evening every county in the State but one
was represented. Not only that, but the
dele gatcs-clect are the fortunate ones Sc
lected from twice or thrice their number
of those anxious to attend and attest their
devotion to the principles Of their party
and throw down the gauntlet to the Demo-
Gratis OH every national and local question
At issue between the two parties. They
are earnest, aggressive and eager for the
fray at every point, from precinct 81 to the
federal election bill, and will give the
enemy all the fight they want from now
until the first Tuesday of November.
The Senatorial nominations have been
made with most excellent Judgment, and
now they have but to choose the leader in
the Congressional field, fling ont their ban
ners and invite the battle
The caucus ""ilea at .ho erer" l,"usr
this evening by Chairman Seligmnn was
to invite an expression as to the Congress
sional nominee and arrange prelmirarics
| to expedite business Tomorrow The roll
was called by counties for nominations,
and from Bcaverhead to Yellowstone the
temporary chairmcn of the several delera-
tions in tcrse and eloquent speeches, inter
ruptcd by enthusiastic and oft repeated
applause, extollcd the services and declared
the unanimous choice of their constituents
| to be our able, honored, efficient and victo,
rious Representative in Congress, Hon
Thomas II. Carter. Every mention Of his
name and services was the signal for rap
turous plaudits for Montana's favoritc SON
and the west side counties were among the
most earnest in demanding that no other
name should be mentioned. Unless all the
omens fail, Mr.. Carter will be nominated
tomorrow by acclamation and with al en-
thnsiasm unprecedented in the political
history Of Montana. and that will find
heartiest response in every portion Of the
