Pests-Wanted an Increase.

The late Judge Lorenzo Sawyer was not
a humorist, but no man delighted more 10
hear good thing, and just before his death
he related to his friend ludcrous incident
that once occurred in his courtroom.
Horace Halves, who was then at the
height of his fame" said the Judge, had
been arrested for carrying arms. and when
the case came up in court it was discovered
that his house was perfect arsenal. There
were, at least, a dozen weapons OF various
kinds scattered about and naturally asked
Mr.. Halves why he had them all in his pos
session.
TO protect my life and property, your
Homer was the prompt reply.

suggested, that you deliver them up to the
Court
"Mr. Halves glanced around at the attor-
news in the room and responded, with great
emphasis, Never, sir, neverP
"Why?" 1 asked.
Simply because 1 shall probably need
them for the purpose of protecting my life
and property from the attacks OF the law
Il insisted no further, and turned my head
away to smile"
Origin of Australia's Pests.
There is absolutely no elimination in
the rabbit pest in Australia" said II. L.
Aubrey of Melbourne at the Occidental yes
terday. I'm New Zealand from 100000
TO 10000 coo rabbit skins are sold annually.
This is all the more remarkable when it is
considered that until 1851 not one Of these
animals was to be found in the Colonies.
In that year gentleman who was visiting
England thought it would be fine thing to
have some rabbits In the Antipodes, and so
he returned with cage full Of the little
animals For year or SO all that be bred
were distributed through the colonies, and
hence the terrible result. Thousands and
thousands of acres of land have been de-
vastated and hundreds of farmers ruined
financially.
"Another source Of great trouble to US
has been the thistle. That pest We owe to a
Scotchman, who carried one OF the flowers
out to Sydney with him. Its arrival was
made the occasion of a banquet, and the
thistle was planted with elaborate cere-
monies. The plant grew and thrived, and
in time its seeds were scattered by the winds.
1t has now rooted out the native grasses on
millions of acres, destroyed sheep runs by
the hundreds and caused no end Of losses

mans Association commenced yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock at the Oakland track,

o'clock in the evening. II was then ad-
jOurned until this morning, and will con-
time over tomorrow.
There were present large number OF
crack shots from different parts of the State,
though most Of them in attendance belong
to this city or vicinity. Their shooting was
excellent, and the scores in shooting for the
Selby medal are of the best ever made in
the State, considering the number OF per-
sons shooting. The days sport commenced
with the medal shOor, with twenty-five en-
tries, each to shoot at twenty live BIRDS
With few exceptions the birds raised with
the opening of the trap, and of the number
that thus arose very few escaped the first
barrel. Six of the competitors withdrew
after making one or two misses each, but
standing in bold relief are ten who scored
birds in every inning. and many of them
with the first barrel. This left large num-
Der to shoot off, which they did in a subse-
Quent pool.

The totalpopulation of Montana, as
shown by census bulletin No. 130,
is 1872, ,150; an increase of $4,000
since 1880. The population by
counties is as follows: Beaverhead,

4,741; Custer, 5,3OS; Dawson,
2,O56; Deer Lodge, 1875; Fergus,

oula, 14,427; Park, 1881; Silver
Bow, %, IA; Yellowstone, 2,O65;
Park ranks sixth in popula-
ton and Livingston occupies
the same position among the cities
and towns having 1000 or more
inhabitants. Helena is the largest
city in the state, having a population
of 13, 1874, and Butte ranks next, with
lO,723. The other cities larger
than Livingston are Great Falls,
Anaconda and Missoula. Dawson
county, which confirms enough acres
to form several states the size of
Rhode Island, has a smaller popu-
lation than Livingston, and Fergus,
the largest county in the state, has a
smaller number of inhabitants than
the city of Anaconds. The bulletin
clearly shows that there is ample
room in the state for thousands oi
immigrants, and by the time the
next census is taken the popuIstior
of the counties which are now repre-;
sented by four figures will undoubt

that he will no longer carry on
the partnership, operations, nor
be liable for debts contracted
thereafter in its behalf, is not lible

than so per cent of the timber of
each class growing on an acre.
Monthly statements under oath are
required, giving descriptions Of tracts
from which timber is cut, the amount
cut, and how disposed Of. No trees
shall be cut and removed less than a
specified number of inches in diameter
except for needed ro&dways through
timber. The person cutting timber
is required to cut, remove and burn
or otherwise dispose of the tops and
brush Of trees, etc, to prevent forest
fires, and he will be held liable for
any damage owing to the spread of
any fire attributable to his neglect.

once absorbed all the knowledge Of
precious mining metal then attain
able.
Had the people of the United
States been as familiar with mining,
the nature of the precious metals,
their matrices and the language of
the rocks, in 1840, as now are the
majority Of the dwellers west Of the
Missouri river, the Comstock lode
would have been discovered either
in that year or in 185O--very early
in the season. The first party of
men having the knowledge now
possessed by the prospectos Of Colo
RADIO, Montana, Utah, or any other
Pacific coast state, that encamped on
the Carson river, at the old trading
post near tho mouth of Gold Canon,
would have found the vein and
eventually the silver. In few
hours after finding gold in the
canon they would have been on the
top of Mount Davidson. AZ soon as
they found that the canon was rich
IN gold they would have made rush
up the stream to find the vein or
veins whence the metal came.
It was the gold found in what is
now known as Gold Canon that ul-
timately led to the discovery of the
Comstock. It, however, required,
with the limited knowledge of min
ing methods then extant among the
people, eight years to make dis
covery which Pacific coast mining
men and prospectors would now
make in as many hours.-Dan

and another advance of 10 cents is ex-
pected in few days.
Live chickens were in demand, and sew
eral calls were made for them.
The wheat market took quite rise, and
there were ready bids of IS cents per
blshel, sacked and on board the cars in
Ogden, for any amount ranging from one
TO one hundred tons.
A bid of 81 per leo pounds for potatoes in
any quantity, from one to fifty cars was
placed.
