serious trouble prevails among the stock

the impression that a similar state of
aff'.irs exists in Montana, which is not true
ir. even the slightest degree. The article is
SO palpably false on the face OF it that /
am greatly surprised that the leading paper
uf the state should r~epublish it without
comment. to the great injury of our state
in general, and OF a large number OF it's best
and most public citizens in particular.

The Big Horn valley, where this lady I'M
dertook to locate a quarter section OF gov
ernment land, has not a quarter section OF
government land in it exclusive OF the
Fort Custer military reservation). il being
a portion of the vast reservation belonging
to the Crow Indians, and on which settlers
are positively forbidden to locate, and the
Indian police are authorized to drive of
any one trying to take up and occupy their
lands. If there is any foundation for this
ignorant and injurious lie. it is probably
this The lady, knowing it to be Indian
land and not open to settlement, located

when warned off by the police, who were
finally compelled to drive her stock off to
force her To move; but Idoubt their killing

If the Independent would give proper
credit to its items, Mr.. Stuart would
not be left in doubt as to which paper
it appeared in. We should object %
