Peoples Party Platform.

The platform On which the peoples
party will stand is as follows:
We demand a national currency. safe.
sound and flexible. issued by the gen
eral government only, a full legal tender
for the use of banking corporations; IA
Just. equitable and efficient means Of
distribution direct to the people, at a tax
not exceeding > per cent per annum. be
provided as set forth in the subtreasury
plank of the Farmers alliance. or some
other system; also by payments in dis
charge of its obligations Tor public i'm
provements.
4. We demand free and unlimited
coinage of silver and gold at the present
legal rate of lG to /.
b. We demand the amount of our
circulating medium be speedily increased
to not less than so per capita.
G. We demand "a graduated income
tax.
ID. We believe that the money of the
country should be kept AS much as
possible in the hands of the people, and
hence we demand that all state and
| national revenue shall be limited to the
necessary expenses of the government
economically and honestly admin
istered.
Z. We demand that postal savings
banks be established by the government
for the safe deposit of the earnings OF
the people and to facilitate exchange.
Land, including all natural resources
of wealth. is the heritage of all people
and should not be monopolized for specu
lative purposes. and alien ownership OF
land should be prohibited. All land now
held by railroad and other corporations
in excess Of their actual needs. and al
lands now owned 10y aliens should be
reclaimed by the government and held
for actual settlers only.
Transportation being a means of OK
change and public necessity. the govern
ment should own and operate railroads
in the interests of the people.
a. Telegraph and telephone, like thu
postotlice system, being a necessity TO
the transmission of news. should be OPP
Grated by the government in the inter

Il. If congress should determine thu
Nicaragua canal or any nationl water

ment, and we oppose any subsidy or ma
tional aid to any private corporation fol

Henry johnson stands of Posse. but Is
Finally Arrested by sheriff Hamilton.
a shooting aifray occurred at Sand
Coulee on the ith of July, which was
not down on the program as a part of
the regular celebration. Henry johnson
a rancher. and one Van Cleve. a horse
man have not been on good terms for some
time and meeting in Sand COulee on the
4th. renewed their quarrel in the street,
and then pulled their guns and began
shooting. They were separated before
any damage had been done and
Johnson WAS told he would
be arrested unless he went home. and he
agreed to 90. Both men had been dis
armed, but Johnson procured another
revolver somewhere and mounting his
horse. rode up to within a short distance
of where Van Cleye was standing in a
crowd and fired a few shots. as a part
ing salute, into the crowd. The consta
bile hastily organized a posse and started
in pursuit of johnson. Finally the
posse composed of four men
heavily armed came in sight
Of Johnson's house. which is
about fifteen miles from Sand COulee.
Johnson was waiting for them and i'm
mediately opened fire with a Winchester.
His wOuld-be captOrs sought refuge
behind some convenient rocks and
johnson then shot all their horses. They
did not dare to move from behind the
rocks for fear of being shot and were
compelled to remain hidden from sight
until darkness set in, when they all
walked back to Sand COulee, leaving
Johnson master of the field.
Yesterday morning word was received
by Sheriff Hamilton regarding the affair
and he Immediately started out to hunt
for johnson. He found him in a barn
alb nut three miles from Sand Coulee. AS
the sheriff entered the barn johnson
was coming out. lie has a A. calibre re-
volver in his hand and another one on
his person. The sheriff got the drop on
him however and johnson surrendered.
He was preparing to transfer his proper
ty and skip out of this section of the
country. He was brought to this city
and Judge Race held him for trial.
This is not the first trouble johnson
has had and it is said he has been mixed
up in several shooting affairs. The most
fortunate as well as the most remarkable
thing about the affair IS the fact that no
one was struck by any Of the bullets
from Johnson's gun and the only dam
age done was the killing of the horses,

A comparison with the statement
made January 4, 1892, shows that there
has been an increase of about $4,000
in the amount of deposits. This fact at
this particular time. indicates very clear
ly that this bank is rapidly growing in
favor as a bank of deposit. The loans
and discounts, the ample amour of
cash on hand and due from other banks,
shows that the Cascade bank still pre-
serves its reputation for conservatism
and good banking.

Condition for Travel.
The work on the Montana Central, re-
pairing the track and putting in e
bridges is being pushed forward as fast
AS possible but even that is slow. 1t
will be the first of August before the
track is in shape to resume travel over
the road. The appearance of the canyon
is entirely changed, levels are gone and
the work of repair is practically the
building Of IA new road. The many
heavy rains recently is delaying the work
some, but no time is being lost except
when the delay is unavoidable.
The track now bling laid is merely
temporary. No attempt is being made
to follow the old grade. The track is
laid on a lower level than before as a
matter of fact, and the bridges are being
replaced lower than before IN order tC
save filling as much as possible.
In conversation with a gentleman who
is in position to know something about
the situation. a representative of the
TRIBUNE was informed yesterday thai
the route through the canyon would bt

it is impossible to put "a track IN the "a

plan is to cross the river at Craig ant

Trial and IL Assessed $50 and Costs
Henry johnson, the man who created
SO much excitement at Sand Coulee on
the Fourth and later stood off a posse
sent out to capture him, was fined so
and costs by Judge Race yesterday; the
whole amounting to about SIS. When
Johnson was first arrested by Sheriff
Hamilton he was taken before Judge
Race and asked to be released on bail
The Judge looked at the warrant which
had beer issued by a justice of the peace
at Sand Coulee and found that the
amount of the bail to be furnished had
not been endorsed on the back of it. He
therefore refused to fix the bail as he
knew nothing positive about the offence
charged. Consequently a warrant was
sworn out before Judge Race and yes.
terday afternoon a > o'clock johnson ap-
peared for trial. None of the witnesses
for the prosecution were present, how
ever. and johnson was discharged fol-
lack of prosecution. He was arrested or
the Sand Coulee warrant and taken tc
that place for trial. \ change OF
venue was taken to Judge Races cour
and last evening the prison again ap'
peared in the %latter's court. This tim,
he was convicted on the charge of eX
