FACTS!

ST. PAUL. MINI.

Aissoula has now at least 1880
people. and is growing at a rate
that will bring it up to 10000 by
the end of 1891. New and inn
portant developments have taken
place in the railway situation in
Western Montana. They arc
making of Missoula a great trans
portation center, and are going
soon to give it the control of the
trade of large regions of country
which have heretofore been cut
off from it by formidable noun
tain barriers.
At Missoula the He'll Gate
river 10 formed by the Bitter Root,
whice forms one of the most beau
tiful and fertile of all the valleys
in the Rocky Mountains "a valley
100 miles long. with width of
from two to seven miles. and with
large resources in it's irrigated
farms, it's silver mines and it's
forests Of pine and spruce.
The Bitter Root is the only
fruit-growing valley in all Mon
tana-
Missoula is the county scat of
county that embraces the whole
of Northwestern Montana. with an
area of Fl 900 square miles. 1t is
larger than the State of Massa-
chusetts.
Missoula occupies one of the
most beautiful sites ever prepared
by nature for the uses of a large
town. 1t is called the Garden
City from its gardens, orchards
and towns.
Mfssouia is becoming one of the
most important points on the
Northern Pacific system.
The Bitter Root Valley branch
divcrges here and runs up the
valley 50 miles to Grantsdale. 1t
will soon be extended about 40
miles further, to the head of the
valley. The new cutoff line to
the Ceeur d'Alenc mining towns.
also leaves the main line at Mis-
soula. This road. already partly
finished, will effect a saving of 65
miles in distance over the present
route, and will as a consequence
become the route of the through
trains to the Pacific coast. The
Northern Pacific has projected 4
fine through the Flathcad valley
to the fine agricultural region and
the coal fields north of Flathcad
Lake This road will be about $50
miles long. and there is no ques-
ton as to it's early construction.
The Washington & Idaho line. al
ready completed as far east as
Mullan, has been located to Mis-
soula. The Great Northern has
determined to start this year for
the Pacific coast. One survey, and
the easiest for crossing the Rock
les. takes the road up to the Dear
born river, through Cadets Pass,
and down the Big Blackfoot to
Missoula. Should a northern
route be selected the development
of farms and mines and lumber in.
dustrics in the northern part oi
Missoula county that would fol.
low, could not fail to be of great
benefit to the city.
During the past year the outpu,
of lumber from the Missoula dis
trict amounted to 10000, 900 feet
and the, industry employed nearly
1000 men.
The best coal yet discovered ir
Western Montana is found in the
upper valley of the Fathead river
aorth of Missoula.
Petroleum has been discovered
north of Flathead Lake.

Sentinel: Mr.. John S. Alexander was IN
Goldendale on Monday for the purpose OF
making land proof. He was accompanied
by Messrs. c. H. Hawley and H. A. Reas-
oner who were his witnesses. An interview
with MIR. Alexander elected the fact that
the stock losses IN the eastern end of the
county especially among the cattle and
sheep were very heavy. Mr.. Alexander
lost 1000 head of sheep out OF a total o.
26OO and Mr.. Hawley lost 1900 head out OF
23OO. G. W. McCreedy. one of the heav-
lest sheep owners in that section was more
fortunate, only loosing few head. There
were others in the Bickleton country we are
told, who lost almost all their cattle and
sheep.

Editor TINES -MoUNTAMEER:
1t has been inrimated to me that have
done Rev. o. D. Taylor an injustice in my
letter OF last evening, BY quoting only few
words of his speech, and not noticing the
fact that he very earnestly urged the i'm
portance of The Dalles and Goldendale rail-
road, and pressed upon the meeting tina,
steps should be taken to place the contem-
plated road In such position that the at
tentiou of capitalists might be called to it.
regret that any words of mine should
place the gentleman in false light. There
was no intention and there could have been
no inducement for me to do so. The same
remarks will apply to Mr.. Robert Mays
Both of these gentleman agreed that the
money necessary to build these contem-
plated roads would not be raised in Tne
Dalles; but both of them would work ear
nestly, doubt not, to induce outside CAPT
tai to undertake the work.

The jackson Mystery.


The case of II. Z. Jackson is a singular
one. Not trace of him has been secured
since he went ON board the Telephone for
Portland on the Sth inst. He had been do
ing some plating for Van Dusen Bros, and
wanted to see the surveys in Surveyor. Gen
eral Taylor's Office In Portland. But he
never reached there. A telegram received
from MIR. Taylor says he has not appeared
there. A thorough search and inquiry at
the business firms In Portland where he was
known and usually called, elected only one
reply: 'tHe hasn't been here"
It ls very singular. The supposition is a
plausible one that he never reached Port
land. What adds to the singular affair is
that he is reported to be in no way embar-
rassed financially, and his domestic rela-
tions were of the pleasantest character. He
was exceedingly fond of his wife, and that
lady says she is as much at loss as anyone
else to account for his mysterious disappear
ance.

Death of the Indian Doctor.
Luna cor. Goldendale sentin,


The editor of the Sentinel was mIsin
formed in regard 10 the death of the In
dian woman doctor. There had been q
large number of cases of la grippe among
the Iudians, and as was their custom they
tried to cure it by the sweathouse ano
cold water process, and which was fatai
TO large number OF them. As a matter
of course the doctor was held responsible,
and council was hel6 In which the old
woman was sentenced to death. and
young renegade Indian was sent for to do
the deed. He came and found the victim
bent over singing 'he death song of sor-
row for one of her patients that had died
lately. and dealing her two murderous
blows on the head with an ak she tell life
less at his feet.
Old Hiheny another Indian doctor, baG
been threatened with death If he did not
raise chinook to take the snow off. The
Indians held 3 council 10 see about drum.
ming up chinook to take off the snow,
and one Indian said the whites were o.
much to blame for the deep snow as the
Indian doctors for Wilcox said be wished
the snow would come 8 feet deep, SO the
Bostons would have good crops. Black
Jim and party went to see old Hiheny,
the Indian doctor, and he told them he
was not responsible for the deep snow
and hard winter, that his own ponies were
dying. He threatened them with the
shevitf and they let him alone.
