The late Grand Jury, and other Grand
Juries equally as sensible and patriotic,
recommended that our Representatives
in the General Assembly take steps to
secure the legislation necessary to have
the question of building new Court
House submitted to the people for their
decision. We sincerely hope that Ander-
son County's new years present to her
self will be new Court House. Judge
Watts was surprised that the people OF
this County, noted for progressiveness,
had not long ago provided herself with q
creditable public building. tits time to
remove this reproach from Anderson's
good name.

Big Revenue Raid.

Special Collector L. w. C. Blalock and
force Of deputies returned here yester-
day after one of the biggest, most success
full and most exciting raids in the history
of the revenue service. The force con-
sisted of Mr.. Blalock and Deputies l.. G.
Bsgwell, of North Carolina, Alonz"
Greer, A. A. Phillips, James Phillips, M.
X. Hightower and John Keenan,. They
left here Monday and struck for the
mountains along the Pickens ancl Green
vile line. They found and cut up q
blockade distillery that afternoon. They
secuted around until after midnight,
when they arrived at Squire Goodwin's
place in the Lima section.
Tuesday morning the party started out
for the Ozark Corner" of this County.
They ran on five blockade distillerios
within half mile. But By the time they
got in the Ozark Corner" bells rang,
rifles fired and shouts resounded. The
result was that every still visited wa>
found desolate. Ten or twelve hundred
gallons of beer and mash we're destroye
but the warning given had been sufficient
and every 'still was torn out before the
revenue men arrived. They found mash
still. Consequently, they destroyed
D66E auu uloSu tuoo Dub lo o11AA's
They had, however, experiences Of the
Dark Corner. They were fired on.
From the hills above the ravines in
which the blockade distilleries lurkeu
came showers of bullets from hidden
foes. Deputy Collector Blalock behaved
himself like veteran and proved him
self to be man who would stand fire.
He was cool, courageous, calculating
through all this trying time in the Dark
Corner. He commanded his men to lie
down, but stood himself, while rifle and
pistol bullets whistled about him and the
twigs and limbs all around were clipped
by the singing messengers Of death. He
proved himself man in the judgment oi
all his subordinates, and stood to the rack
to the very last.
The raiders arrested every man and
boy they could find as measure of pro-
lection and kept the prisoners with them
Until they got ont.
The Dark Corner boys showed their
usual discretion and refused to take any
risks of hurting any of their own people
The truth is-as the Greenville NeWS is
informed-the whole shooting was mis-.
take. The Dark Corner people are law
abiding in their way and do not resist the
Sheriff or the regular raiding deputy
This time they got the notion that some
kind of an extra man had been rung ir
on them. Therefore they shot and stood
the return fire of Deputy Collector Bla-
locks crowd. The new man is only 6
deputy and the raid was made by the
regular deputy collector.-Greenwltt

Here is little crap of political history
from The New York Post: A Republican
organ points ont that 'sthe Republican
party has won the most sweeping triumph
since 1872" This Is true. But 1t is also
true that two years after 1872 s.he Repub-
licans lost the House and Represents
tiyes for the first time since 1856, and
were beaten in all their strongholds, a

When the Senate reconvenes OF the
first Monday in next month, unless the
Sproeran mapped outsby certain Senators
should be rearranged, there will proba-
bly, be clash on the tariff question.
Senator Harris states that he intends to
push the supplemental tariff bills for
action as soon as possible after Congress
gconYenes, which probably means after
4 the holiday recess. This is in accord with
the statements he made on the floor OF
the Senate at the time the so-called s'pop
gum tariff bills were referred to the tariff

The first sG5 highest study ST lite
should be to cultivate an absolute rever-
ence for moral truth and power. The
spirit of every high and noble work
stands upon the solid foundation of truth,
and no enterprise is worthy Of respect or
admiration unless this is the corner
stone. The old adage, that honesty is the
best policy, is not the best saying in the
world. Sometimes there is counterfeit
change in full circulation-there are false
words and false reputation, and some-
times policy is the cause Of much seeming
honesty. Doing this or that for the sake
of policy, without regard to principles OF
justice and honesty, is q poor excuse for
honesty. When one stops to think o.,
policy instead of duty, then honesty be-
comes questionable character. Joining
4 party ,,r embracing creed, just to bt
popular, or because some one else had
done the esame, may betray selfish or
unprincipled spirit. but not rare wisdom
or marvellous piety. Right doing, for the
sake of right, is the only true exercise OF
the mind. He is not wholly Tree who
looks to others for the rule of right that l.
to bind his thoughts and actions. AL
WAYS be true for truths sake, and too
brave to speak or act against conscience.
The inclination to allow any other mo-
tive to control ones actions is a tempta-
tion to do wrong. Acting deceitfully 10
acting a lie. The most expedient way
may not always be plain; but one may
follow his highest ideas OF right, and that
life stands highest in the scale Of hu-
manity that is most perfect and truthful.
Only the sophist can ssy that it is hardly
possible or desirable to have an honest
heart and tongue. There is no real adj
vantage gained from a,deceitlul face or a
double tongue. Double dealing seldom
brings even present and temporary
reward. It is plainly written that "the
lip Of truth shall be established forever,
but lying tongues but for moment"
To cunningly boast of having 'scome it"
over others in any way or shape, is
species of boasting that deserves a combi-
nation of pity and contempts Discretion
and perfect sincerity DO not require one
to turn the heart inside out to crafty the
but good will and good sense
willshow what it is to be true in princi-
ple-true to self and others.

Mr.. Ed Arnold, OF the republican cen

sent to Gov. Richards clipping from
the Courier, in ghich the governor was
berated for having vetoed the bounty
bill, the governor responds in clear and
convincing letter which we are pleased
to be able to give to our readers. 1t is
as follows:
HELENA. Oct, "A, 1894.
Mr.. Ed arnold. Miles city, Mont.
DEAR SIR:--I am in receipt Of your
favor OF recent date, enclosing an
EXCERPT from a demcratic paper re-
lative to my veto of a bounty bill pass
ed by the last legislative assembly. In
the conscientious discharge OF my duty
as governor of this state | am not un-
mindful OF the readiness of the democra-
tic press to criticise my acts, regardless
of the motives that inspire them. This
was so fully exemplitied in the democra-
tic demand for an extraordinary session
of the legislature that no farfetched
conclusion in the way OF criticism as
fonishes me.
Relative to my veto of the bounty bill
] was actuated by no desire to impair IN
any way tne STOCK INDUSTRY III tnls stdte,
m industry to which every loyal Mon
tanian owes the allegience of his best eff
forts. In my veto message / said: Il
regret exceedingly that / cannot see my
way clear to approve house bill NO. 80,
a il is in many respects an improvement
over the old law" But / was not un-
mindful Of the financial condition OF this
state and that Montana was practically
,,ua bla tn aasume the respOn sibility of
increasing the bounty on wolves and
coyotes from 81 to 8, as provided in the
bill. To increase the bounty without
the ability to cash warrants at their face
value when issued in payment thereof
would defeat the ends and purpose OF
the bill, namely. to facilitate the destruc.
ton OF these pests. The increase would
have been little inducement il the war
xnnts could not have been turned in for
- cash they represented. Yet this
Uould have been impossible.

usspsistsd The sum oe $4,000 pR ennun
