The f1latlea,. Politically.

The Flat head Journal.
There will be plenty of politics
throughout Montana this yeat, and
in no quarter will the result be
more prohltmatical than what is
kuowil as the Flat thead region. This
section of the state has been filled
up rapidly the past year with voters
and the results oi the elections this.
fall will doubtless be 4 surprise
party all around.
That the valley will be thorough
ly worked by politicians Of all COM
plvxions goes without saying. Dem
oera;tit and republican orators wilP
crate III the cities, brass bands wilE
play, torch!ight professions will
'procesh,' and altogether every.
thing will be done that can be done
to make the life Of the average voter
a burden. BESIDES the Offices TO fil}
there will lie i cap;;,,al fight Oil and
almost every city in the state wilE
be in the race, and although Falls
pell may be too far in the corner of
the state to capture this big plum,
the valley as a whole viii probably
decide the location The cities Of
the state know this and the capital
wire puller will be a feature Of the:
fall campaign undoubtedly.

The delinquent tax list OF our
county this year is far in excess Of
any heretofore published. With
our last seasons good crops and
very fair prices-whatis the reason
for this? There is ample food for
thought right here for the reflective

Billings Times.
A. G. McMaster and son we're
visitors from Red Lodge last week.
Otto Franc has gone to Califor-
MIA to winter, having sufficiently
recovered from the grip.
A petition has been largely signed
in favor of disincorporating the city
under its special charter, and rein
cooperating under the general act.
The Old established firm Of Rab-
cock & Miles has dissolved, as will
be seen by the notice in another
column. The Billings store which
was started in 1882, is the parent
house, from which branches in Iiv-
ingston, Gardiner, Red Lodge, Big
Timber and Castle have been start
ed. The business of the firm had
grown to very large dimensions, be-
ing probably the heaviest hardware
firm in the state. Col. Babcock
takes Billings and Red Lodge, Mr..
Miles takes Livingston and Big
Timber, and the Castle establish
ment is Incorporated.

NIu.!.ns Hex Dead i-1t>r.

Apprehension is felt in many
quarters regarding the condition OF
the Princess Of Wales, who takes
the death OF her son very much t.:
heart and refuses to lie conforted.
Her long service in the sick rooms
Of both Prince George and Prince
Victor had an effect of greatly de
biliating her and to-day She is COM
pletely prostrated. Princess Vic
toria Mary, whose poignant sorrow
at the loss of her betilrotlcd hus-
band seems to increase. is also pros
trated, and by the intensity of her
grief and her refusal to touch food
much anxiety is expressed regard
ing her. Princess Mary stood at
the bed side Of her royal lover and
through her binding tears watched
him as his life ebbed away. When
the doctors announced the Duke
was dead, she became hysteriea|
and her cries were heartrendi;;g
Efforts were made to lead her frem
the room, but for q long ti;ne moth
ing could induce her to leave the
death chamber. She stood by he
bedside and leaning over she called
Eddie, my Eddie in agcnized
tones and entreated him to speak
TO her once more.

a Regular I7igh ter.
The Montana Alliance.


George w. Daugherty once said
to us, referring to this paper: "The
Alliance is a regular fighter" Right,
George, and you are something of a
fighter yourself. IF it was not for
the fight in life the world would be
an awful doll place.
The man who ffasn't any fight in
him is about as useful to society as
q eunuch.
There is no harm in fighting, if
you fight in good cause.
The difficulty with the most Of
us in this age is we go cunning for
BED bugs with howitzers, and fight
for things we know to be wrong.
Honest fighting has elevated So
ciety and brought freedom.
The world is composed Of the
good and the bad, the loyal and the
treacherous, the generous and the
selfish the honest and the dishonest,
and so long as the world endurcs
the triumphs Of virtue and right
will result from the war waged by
fighters on the shams, hypocrisies
and dishoncsties Of this life
Bare YOUR great rig BIT arm, swell
out your shirt front, and dare 'cn
to knock a chip off your shoulder.
Such a man may not be loved in
this life, but in time to come his
deeds will shine alongside the pass
i've man vino lives for just what he
can get out of his life, and is willing
to let we'll enough alone, while the
generations to come will curse the
heritage Of poverty, crime and
brutality, the foundation of which
his passiveness permitted to be
built up under his very nose be-
cause he will y and through cowar-
dice refused to protest against it.
Give as the fighter every time.

,,e Murderer Suicides.

iI.e RIur,lerer Suicides.
Livingston En terpEise.
Sheriff Temp!eton is in receipt Of
a letter from w. A. Clark. a con-
stable at Dixon, Carbon county,
Wyoming, acknowledging the re-
ceipt of one Of the postal cards cir
culated by Sheriff Templetou and
offering reward for the capture
and conviction Of Jack Rice, who
murdered J. NJ. Twoh1g at Red
Lodge, December 10th. The letter
from Constable Clark states that
on the same day the card was re-
ceived an unknown man committed
suicide at Dixon by shooting HIM
self through the head with a Win.
chester rifle, and that his descrip-
ton tailed exactly with that given
Of Rice with the exception Of the
clothing. The rifle with which the
unknown did the shooting was a
Winchester 45-G0-sin;lar to the
one Rice had in his possession
when he left Red Lodge after the
murder of Twohig. There was
nothing by which the stranger
could be identified and nothing to
indicate from whence he came, ex-
cept a wagon sheet which bore the
sellers name at some point in Mon
tana 1t is possible that Rice, after
the killing Of Twohig, may have
reached some point where an ex-
change of clothing was effected
and after wandering as far as Car
bon county, Wyoming, became des-
pondent aud committed suicide.
Sheriff Templetoa has written for
further particulars for the purpose
Of fully establishing the fact as to
whether the stranger who suicided
at Dixon is or is not the murderer
Of j. M. Twohig.

Great Falls Tribune.
Mr.. e. D. Weed made a few re-
marks the other evening before the
Helena board of trade about an
opera house for the capital city and
in the course of them is reported to
have said:
"While such enterprises were
receiving very little encourage
ment bv the business lnen and
capitalists Of Helena, they were
strongly advocated and carried to
successful termination by the
citizens of Great Falls. The result
would naturally be that Helena
would wake up some morning to
find that Great Falls instead Of
following in her footsteps had taken
the lead as the business and COM
mercial center of the state, as we'll
as the center Of population"
Mr.. Weed might have truthfully
said that Great Falls is already in
the lead from a business and COM
mercial point Of view. Might have
added that Great Falls will soon be
making it very warm for Helena
on the population issue. Straight
goods.
