THE NEW GOLD FIELDS.

Two Expeditions Left Miles City This
week.---A stampede Anticipated.
From the Yellowstone Journal Of May
3 the following additional information lie
gathered:
The first expedition from this city to
the Big Dry gold fields pulled out last
night, and was followed today by an
other containing Ed Jones, James Sipes,
Charles Royce and Red Kerns. The
fever is spreading noticeably and several
others are talking about going.
Oscar Mayes came in from the camp
today, and says that he saw the miners
taking out gold, that seemed to be quite
coarse, but he did not know whether it
was in paying quantities or not. There
was lots OF hustle in the new camp, and
town was rapidly looming up-three
saloons and one store being already open
for business. The whole country was
being located by men who would come
in, file their notices, aud then hurry off
to Glendive to record their claims. The
locators all seemed to think that they
had struck it rich, and anticipated a
regular stampede.
Mr.. Mayes says that it is about llJ
miles from here to the digginge, with
but one house on the road-sixty-i
miles out-and not particularly good
road at that. Glasgow, on the Great
Northern, is the nearest railroad point
and is distant about fifty miles,

The following from the American Ag'
riculturist in answer to an inquirer may
be a valuable hint to farmers and others
who havo need of good fence: "W. G.
Fowler, Regina, N. w. r., wants to know
what is the best and quickest growing
hedge plant for cold climate like that
of the Canadian Northwest. We presume
you refer to some thorny plant that
will, in measure, turn cattle although
you do not say for what purpose the pro.
posed is intended. We know Of but one
such plant that would be at all likely to
thrive in very cold climate, and that 10
the Buffalo berry (Shepherdia argentea, }
and this is only slightly thorny, bnt it
grows very dense and stocky, besides
bearing an excellent edible berry. As
this Buffalo berry is an indigenous shrub,
or small tree, growing in considerable
abundance as far north as Alaska, we do
not hesitate to recommend it as an ex-
cellent hedge plant for cold climate. As
it is not at all difficult to transplant,
when of considerable size, you may be
able to procure the plants near at home,
and secure a hedge in less time than
would be required to raise one from seed"

JUDGE JENKINS
Rounded Up In Splendid style by the
Congressional Committee.

Rounded Up in Splendid style by tho
Congressional Committee.
WASHINGTON, May 4.-Representative
Boatner, chairman Of the house iudic-
iary committee, appointed to investigate
the Northern Pacific decision Of Judge
Jenkins to day submitted to the judi
ciary committee the majority report Of
the special committee. The report says
the orders OF the court reducing wages
and prohibiting the employees from
quitting work we're gross abuse Of the
power Of the court. we're supported by
neither reason nor authority, were be-
yond the jurisdiction of the judge and
were therefore void. The second, or
supplemental writ, was more responsible
than the first, because the judge was
advised before he rendered it OF
the exact object and purposes sought to
be accomplished. The conclusion of the
Judge, that the employees of the Northern
Pacific Railway company might be
forced by him by writs Of Injunction to
protect that company from loss and the
public from Inconvenience, by remaining
In it's service at rate Of wages to which
they had not given assent. is one in
which we cannot concur. and which in
our judgment is supported by none OF
the decisions which he cites. Your COM
mittee find nothing in the testimony, nor
see any corrupt intention on the part Of
the judge to render these orders. 1t is
altogether possible that he was sincere
in the conviction that he properly exer-
cised the equity jurisdiction Of the court
in preventing the loss and damage which
would have resulted from lawful strike
against the Northern Pacific Railroad
company. This view of the case pre-.
vents US from recommending proceed.
ing looking to impeachment, but in or.
der that there may be no further excuse
for the rendition OF such orders or de-
crees, and thst courts Of equity Of the
United States may not be deceived as tc
the extent Of their powers in enforcing
contracts for personal services by legal
process. we recommend the enactment
Of statute which will prevent then
doing 30.
