The term of the district court from
March 7 to April 8, was a pretty expen-
sive one to Cascade county. There were
thirteen state cases tried during the term
and the witness fees alone amounted to
S1,882.6O. There was a grand mistake
made in summoning witnesses to be
present on the first day of the term. If
proper care had been taken in this mat
ter several hundred dollars would have
been saved to the county. The county
attorney should keep an eye on the wit
ness racket and not permit it to be re-
peated for it is rather too expensive.
The jurymen in attendance during the
term received S2.062.5 80 for their services.

car loads of sheep westward over the
Great Northern railroad this morning.,
they being the remnant of 5000 head,

whose sheep were being run by other
parties on shares, was obliged to drive
1000 head to Big Sandy, during the win
ter, and ship them to Craig, where they
were successfully run during the winter.
OF the 5000 head of sheep belonging
to Mr.. Wells, and which were being run
by Bear Paw parties, he has managed to
save 1850 head. Mr.. Wells Informs us
that tho past winter has been excep-
tioral hard in the Bear Paws. Most Of
the sheep men bought hay and grain,

loss. The loss of cattle on the north
side of the Bear Paws will be very
heavy.-Benton Press.
