MORE GOLD SHOWING UP
But Larb Creek Nay Prove TO Be An
other Alexander City.
MIscEoENATIoN PROBABLE
Old Fort Benton to the Front With a
Car Load of Fresh Sensations
The Grand Jury Stirring
Things Up Generally.

GREAT FALLS, April "A special 20 this
Office from Glasgow says that alleged dis
coveries of gold on Larb Creek, Valley
county. are attracting many people to
that vicinity from Northwestern Montana.
The fields arc alleged to have attracted
considerable attention for several months
past. Prospectors havo been at work
over since tho snow began to disappear
and new leads and more paying ore have
been discovered, according to the pros
pectors accounts. Many claims have
been staked out and the camp is gaining
i'm population. Experienced men are
watching DEVELOPMENTS and arc not yet
prepared to pass any opinion. 1t is feared
that the camp may prove another Alex
ander City, and undeniabie evidence of
wealth must BIO shown before stampede
occurs.
A special to this office from Fort BEN
ton says that tho grand jury has been
constantly in session and every day is
probing deopc-into the alleged corruption
that exists in Choteau county. One of the
jurors is reported to have intinatcd that
there will DO great surprise in store for
some one and that some ox-county Of
ficials as we'll as those now in Office may
suffer. 1t is alleged that jobbory and cor
ruption have been rampant for the past
five years. Residents of Chinook and
Havre claim that tho grand jury will do
all in its power to protect certain citizcns
of Fort Benton, and tho Old sectional
feeling is running high. The city council
has passed an ordinance similar to the
Butte ordinances against Migrants, and
the buns and FOUNDERS shook the adobe
from their feet Immediately. The sole
cry is reform, and while the grand jury
remains in session reform will be prac-
ticed. Individuals who claim to have been
aggrieved, as in the letting of contracts
for burial of paupers, medical
attendance for, county charges,
county printing, etc., are making
charges against the commissioners,
and every person who is guilty is in dread
lest he will be brought to justice. The
jury is still investigating county matters,
but they expect to begin on indiv iduals
soon, and it is expected that there will be
hurried marriages, to be followed by de-
sertions, and that miscegenatIon will be
noticed or that there will be a rapid emil
grafton from the county of denizens of
shacks along the river.
Into the existing muddle in which the
commissioners figure so prominently, has
been injected perplexing question by a
lawyer. At the November election c. NJ.
tanning was an opponent of one Beau
dette of Havre. tanning was declared
to have been elected commissioner and
served until the scandal began, when he
resigned. Some claim that he resigned
expecting to see Treasurer Duff deposed
and himself chosen to fill the vacancy.
Jere Sullivan was appointed Lanning's
successor, and the question now is con-
corning the status of Beaudette's contest.

ROBERT JACKSON VIII apply inc Tree
Rod whom Necessary.
GREAT FALLS, April Don Davenport,
who is now at Havre securing Cree In
dams for "Wild West" show with head
quarters at Peoria. ILL.,, has secured the
services of an intelligent half-breed
named Robert jackson as interpreter.
jackson speaks the language of all In
dian tribes of the Northwest, also English
and Canadian French. He was formerly
a trusted scout for Generals Custer and
Miles during their campaign against the
Sioux. He is resident of Big Timber,
owns his own home. and has a fair sized
bunch of cattle. He was a resident of
Lewistown in the early days of that town,
and an incident is related which shows
his nerve.
Several years ago, when there was
lack of law force in Fergus county, a
tough specimen of humanity known as
"Rattlesnake lakeland no one can tell
his baptismal cognomen--ran city and
county to suit himself. He was an auto
crat and men quailed before his bull
doing. He grew TO believe that all men
feared him, and ono day, in an ugly
mood, he insulted the half-breed, Jack
son. jackson resented the affront and
was promptly ordered to crawl on the
earth. Jake had tho drop on him but
jackson darted away to his cabin and Sc
cured Winchester. He was 200 yards
distant when he opened fro on the bully,
but when he cased u bullets wcrc lodged
in Jake's corpse.
1t will require a cool head and great
nerve to handle the Crces on their long
tour of the East and South and Europe,
but Jackson has n full supply, and if he
finds il necessary to administer the same
correction to n few Crees as he treated
the Lcwistown terror with, there will DO
little iancn.ation in Northern Montana.

GREAT FALLS. April Every day for
the past month from three to a dozen con-
tracts have been filed for record, granting
to the Royal Milling company. in return
FOR seed furnished, tho first right to pur-
chase the crop of wheat raised by the
rancher who is n party to the contract.
These are positive indications that the
acreage of wheat sown in Northern Mon
tana this year will exceed that of any
previous year by thousands of acres, and
with prevailing climatic conditions there
is every reason to expect an enormous
crop. Many ranchers are sowing barley
and this promises TO exceed the wheat
