THE Missoula Populist, n OF the
ablest edited organs of that party in the
west, states that the Cmur d'Alene mine
owners have offered to employees a
sliding scale of wages to be governed by
the price in silver. 1t is like the sys-
TEN employed by the C~arnegies, except
that the wages to their mon are gov
erned by the price OF steel billets. This
system has the appearance Of fairness,
Owing to the low price Of silver and
high railway rates, many in the
Ceur d'Alene country have been forced
to shut down their mines. This means
a loss of employment to more than SOC
men and any fair proposition looking
toward the resumption Of work should
receive all consideration. Enforced idle
ness has kept alive that rest
less feeling which developed SO
many unfortunate results last year. The
best remedy for discomfort of any sort
is work and it is hoped that this may
soon be found in that district which
promises to become the w%ealthiest min
ing region Of the western country.

leads to the belief that Rowand's efforts
may be successful. The most serious
obstacle ia the way is the u%nrelenting OPP
position OF certain west side n newspapers.
It is probable that no other man ever
had greater influences working for his
release. The late Secretary Blaine
made a personal request for Rowand's
pardon on the high ground OF interna-
tional courtesy. This was accompanied
by strong appeals from the late Sir
John Macdonald, of Canada, and Sir Jul

THE discouragers OF prize fighting in

THE discouragers OF prize fighting in
Montana received material assistance
from the prize fighters themselves dur
ing the past week. A contest at Butte
which was decided 'no contest" aroused
such disgust and indignation among the
sports of that town as to strengthen the
hope that Butte will worry along with
out more entertainments Of that sort.
The other evening at Philipsburg one of
the fighters grew bellicose and used his
teeth on both his opponent and the ref
cree. The new sheriff of Granite county
then stepped in and arrested one of the
offenders. This is u good grist of results
for one week and indicates that if left
alone, the brutal sport will soon kill it.

WHILE the recent spell of bad weather
was annoying to pedestrians and bad
for those afflicted with hypochondria, it
is good to learn of fine results il all sec
tions of the state. All reports show
that the soft melting now and light
showers brought forth new grass on all
the ranges and ranches. This means an
increased value of many thousands Of
dollars, and when the returns come in
next fall, the accounts for cattle and
farm products will be found on the right
side of the ledger.

turn Home with a Couple
of Specimens.

Recently divorce was granted to
Mrs. Anna G. Kenney, by Judge Rose
from Reuben G. Kenney, sea captain Of
705 North Second street, Tacoma, Wash
ineton. The grounds were desertion
and failure to support.
The couple were married April 25tb,
1866, IN the city Of Brooklyn, New York,
and had three children, one of whom, u
son, is now living in San Francisco, aged
"a years. In the direct testimony Mrs.
Kenney testified that about 1879 the de-
fendant deserted her and that in the
pass eight years the defendant had con-
tribnted only about the sum of 500
towards her support; though having the
ability to d. 50 he had neglected to
furnish even the common necessaries Of
life and the plaintiff was compelled to
live upon the charity of her friends; that
the defendant is well and strong, a
healthy man easily capable OF supporting
the plaintiff.
Pasyla Bassett, called to testify on
the part OF the plaintiff, stated that she
had been acquainted with both parties
for the last IS years and corroborated
the testimony OF Mrs. Kenney. Attor-
ney John G. Garland of Sioux Falls.
Sonth Dakota, as attorney for the de-
fendant, denied the allegation OF Geser-
ton IN toto, and stated that defendant
wanted speedy tiial of the case and a
divorce, as long as it would cost him
nothing either in the way Of alImony or
costs. The decree was granted by Judge
Rose on the 25th inst.
Mrs. Kenney and Miss Bassett have
resided in the city during the greater
part OF the Summer and fall. They left
for their homes IN New York, Sunday
night last, a delegation of Jamestown
ladies and acquaintances being at the
depot to bid them goodbye. The ladies
made friends OF all with whom they
came in contact, and many regrets were
expressed at their departure. Mrs. Ken
ney stated that her personal prejudices
against legal separations Of this kind had
only been overcome after years OF endur-
ance, and on most just grounds.

Reducing Wages.

On Aug. II the receivers of the North
can Pacific ordered a reduction varying
from 10 to 20 per cent IN the salaries of
all employees amounting to $1,000 per
annum or more. On Aug. 25 the re-
ceivers ordered further reduction. but
after consideration deemed it advisable
to defer action until more favorable
time. The reductions specified were
agreed upon at meeting OF the receivers
held Oct. %, on account of the great de-
crease in the business of the company,
which. coupled with low rates. has re-
suited in an enormous loss of revenue.
Now, however, word has been issued that
the salaries of all officers and employees
OF the Northern Pacitic will be reduced
Jan. /. 1894.
Heretofore the dlspatchers, engineers,
firemen. conductors. brakemen. and
telegraph operators were not
affected by the cut OF Aug. II. because
OF a schedule or contract held with the
company. These contracts or schedules
will be abrogated Jan. l, and new
schedules entered into. An amended
schedule prepared for enginemen and
trainmen and a revised list of salaries Of
employees in the telegraph service will be
made and employees mentioned therein
governed thereby. All other employees
whose salaries or wages aggregate $50
per month and less than S75 per month,
will be reduced 5 per cent, and those
aggregating SIS per month and less than
500 per month, 10 per cent. The cut
above named will be considered by the
various organizations and brotherhoods
Of employees, and there is a report that
the cut may not be accepted without
some arbitration or further cops,dera-
ton.
General Manager kendrick IN the
bulletin announcing the decision of the
receivers, states: The officers and en-
ployes OF the company who were affected
by the first and heavier reductions, OF
August 18th, have manifested their 10y
atty to the company and it's interests by
accepting such reductions cheerfully.
In view ct the uniform consideration
that has always been shown by all classes

already ordered have been met, the re-
ceivers rely with confidence upon the
cheerful acceptance of the terms which

Big Game Hunters.

More deer hunters are being heard
from. Aessrs. Wis eman, Porter. Hewitt
and Walters OF Melville, have returned
from their annual deer hunt. They did
not have quite as good luck as in former
years, but made a good showing Of the
antlered game. They killed seven deer
and eight antelope, all within 80 miles
OF Melville, although they were farther
north and west in the hunt. MIR Wise
man ls reported to be a fine deer shot.

deer, RAINING. in four shots. The party
went we'll equipped with covered wagon,

The jamestown party, Messrs Halstad,
McChesney and Barner, that left for
Mandan Sunday last for deer, returned
today. They went thirty miles south of
Mandan, hunting Monday and Tuesday
morning and got two fine bucks which
they brought home to show for them
selves. One OF the deer weighs over 200
pounds. The boys spent two nights in
the same rancher's house. A good many
deer are reported in that vicinity for the
amount of timber there. No snow is on
the ground, and 60 there is no tracking
game. 10 HUBER, travelling salesman
