A Pioneer Joke.

When the grand jury assembled the
judge charged them very strongly on the
subject Of these lynchings
Among the members of the jury was a
good -natured White river farmer, native
of the fatherland, who had himself taken
an active pa,t in the administration of
justice"
His brother members of the jury per
sauded him it would be good joke, if
they indicted him for killing one of the
Indians. Always ready for a joke, he
joined in the indictment against himself
for murder in the first degree.
He then surrendered himself to the
sheriff, and was brought into court for ar
raignment.
The indictment was read to him, to
which he listened with illconcealed
amusement, and he was then called upon
to plead.
With broad smile overspreading his
features, he said:
"Feil, yudSe, 1 guess VoS kulily. l
hung dot silva ash."i
Thereupon the judge, with BETTING
solemnity, responded:
eff it is your wish, the plea shall be
entered. But the court informs you that
if such is your plea it will be the duty Of
the court to sentence you to be hanged
by the neck until you are dead.'
Our German friends jaw dropped, 8
green gray pallor overspread his face
his knees knocked together, and he was
the embodiment of the liyeliest conster.
nation. AS soon as he could command
his voice he faltered:
"Hold on, yudge, hold on! guess
vas not kuilty."
A lenient jury took the latter view O.
it and the same day he was tried and
turned loose, but he was frequently heard
in after years to remark that ''Dose brac

TIE INDEPENDENT doesn't feel that it

Of interest to buyers of holiday goods
that their part of the paper is not its
least interesting feature.
Right here it may be proper to ac-
knowledge the cheering and hearty sup
port our business community have given
to The INDEPENDENT in the past few
months. With two or three exceptions
our merchants have appreciated the
fact that the relation between the bus
iness community and the newspaper is
a reciprocal one; that the community
owes samething in the way of support to
newspaper, as well as the fact that the
newspaper has duty to perform to the
public. We do not believe there is a
city Of Helena's population in the
country that gives better support to its
newspapers. Certainly, there is not one
in Montana, for the advertising patron
