MR. DIXON AND HIS PARTY.

Though W. W. Dixon is an able
Lawyer and an honorable gent leman
he could be OF but little service to the
people OF Montana were he elected to
congress. Like Toole and Maginnis he
would drop into an obscurity that
would equal tho sleep OF Rip Van
Wrinkle. lie could not rise above his
party which is antagonistic to the
chief industries of Montana and the
great west. Like every Democratic
congressman from the north he would
bow to the ever dominant Southern
influences in his party. The Demo
cratic party of the South is a free
trade party, pure and simple. and it is
fast leavenine the whole lump OF De
mocracy throughout the land. When
the union was threatened with destr rue
tion, when the conflict came. and the
loyal people of the north gave their
treasures and their blood that the
stars and stripes should float in the
heavens, even then, the Democratic
party OF the north, rs a party, bowed
in humble submission to the south
Has the link been broken? Are not the
ties the same now? Is there not still
the same domination When Carlisle
offered an amendment in the senate to
place wool on the free list every Demo
cratic senator present voted AYE"
and every Republican mo" The
woolgrowers had not one friend among
the Democrats. They all bowed in
obedience, if not in reverence, to Car
lisle, OF Kentucky. When the lead
schedule was reached and an amend
ment offered to reduce the duty from
l cents to : OF cent per pound,
every Democrat present voted for
the reduction and every Republican
against it except Plumb, and he voted
for the tariff bill as a whole. The
patient, hopeful and struggling miners
OF Montana and the Rocky mountain
region did not have a. friend among
the Democrats to lift his voice for
them 1t is the same in both houses
Of congress. Mr.. Dixon would he of as
much service to Montana at home as
he would he in Washington. Mr.
Carter, on the other hand, is in the
swim. He is in harmony with the al
ministration, which iavors western
interests. lie is worker, and gen
orally gets what lac wants. He is thu

county road, but a cutoff, the right Of
way for which was given by q. r. Norris
to Broadwater, Mcnamara & Co. and
teams in their employ, for period of
five years, providing they would do
certain amount Of work on the hill.
Were it a county road they would
have no claim, for when this county
purchased the strip from Choteau the
representatives of that county made
the point that Choteau had expended
from 81, 800 to 5000 on the Clagett
hill and it was a consideration in the
sale. Ii Broadwater, Mcnamara a. Co.
had valid bill at all it was against
Choteau county.
II is also stated on reliable sources of
information that the scrapers and
other implements used in grading the
hill, which were included i'm their bill,
were borrowed from road supervisors
and from the quartermaster depart
ment at IT. Magnnis, and furthermore
that the Manitoba railroad paid for
most Of the work done on the road.
In the face of these facts it seems
evident that great injustice has been
done the people Of Fergus county, but
we doubt whether there is any redress
to be had.
II is due to Commissioner McCoirt to
say he opposed and voted against the
allowing Of the bill.

THE GRAND JURY's REPORT.

Elsewhere will he found the report
Of the grand jury for the September
term Of court. u will be read with
more than usual interest by the tax
payers Of this county. The gentlemen
who composed the jury had disagree
able duty to perform, but they did not
waver in their efforts to. protect the
interests Of the people and ferret ont
wrong doing. II in their dilligent in
quiry they have born down too hard in
some instances, it was through sense
Of duty rather than through any per-
sonal feeling or prejudice.
In some matters i'm which the COM
missioners are condemned we believe
the board acted with sincerity and with
desire to do what was just and right.
II they erred it was q matter Of mis-
taken judgment as regards the costs
and consequences.
As regards the allowance of bills for
sherif's deputies, it seems to be u
mooted question whether, under the
fee law, the sheriff or the county is to
pay for deputy hire. We understand
that the point was raised in Choteau
county and decided that the sheriff
must pay the salaries Of his deputies,
and the grand jury was governed some
what by this decision in their objection
to further drafts on the county. This
point should be definitely settled
In the matter Of allowing the bill Of
Broadwater, Mcnamara & Co., the
condemnation Of the action by the
grand jury will receive the endorsement
Of every taxpayer in Fergus county.
This firm had no valid claim against
the county. The original bill was
&, ,Oj2.27 for work done on the Clagett
hill, the amount allowed them was
81 800. The transaction was pushed
through the first day Of the session-the
warrant drawn, discounted at the bank
and the parties out of town before
nightfall. The bill should not have
been allowed without due considera-
ton and investigation, and If nee
essary, the opinion Of the county at
torney obtained.

Hon. &. II. Benton, Judge of the Eight b
judicial District Court Of the State of
Montana.
We, the grand jurors of the grand jury in
and for Fergus county, inpanelled for the
September term Of court rest,ectfully sub
nit the following report:
We met Monday, Sept. IL, 1880. We
have considered fourteen cases, finding
eleven true bills, one no true bill, and dis
missing the Others ON account of lack of
sufficient evidence.
That we eensure in unmeasured terms the
county commissioners who allowed the bill
Of Broadwater. Mcnamara X Co. for work
done on the tlaggett hill. and would iecen-
mend the county attorney To at once insti
tute such proceedings as will stop pay ment
Of said warrant, or institute suit against
the proper party or parties for The recOv
cry of said amount, know ing that ~. III war
rant is without warrant or justice in law.
We condemn til. action Of the road super
visor Of Big Spring Creek township for the
unwarranted aud unequal expenditure oi
money and labor in his township, and the
board Of county commissioners for allow.
ing his bills for the same.
We call the attention Of the county com
missioners o the fact that We lind no war
rant in law fnr the ayment of sheriff s,lep
uties, and would recommend the county al
torney to at one. take sucl, steps as will
III
moneys.
We repeat the admoniti"n of the previous
grand jury to the county treasurer aud the
officers of the peace regarding the com
plants of the frequent violations of the law
against selling liquor aud 81 gambling IN its
yarious forms without "A license.
We would further call the attention of
our peace officers to the Tact that thougl,
the evil effects III intemiperancea are required
to i,e taught in our public scho"ls, yet our
children are allowed in the saloons.
That owing to the fact that anexpert has
just finished his labors in examining the
county records and Of our limited time, we
have not deemed it necessary to examine
said records.
We visited the county Jail and the county
poor-house and found everything kept in ~
neat and orderly manner, and all the in
mates were satisfied with their treat tment.
We extend our thanks to the county at
torney and the sheriff for their kind and
courteous treatment during our session.
