Casper Falla Sued.
Armour g. Co., have commenced suit
against Casper Falla, to collect 5000 al
legged to be due them on guarantee. The
petition says that Falla entered into an
agreement with Armour g. Co. whereby
he guaranteed the payment Of the meat
bills contracted by j. Shreve, to the
amount of 5000 but any bill contracted
over 5000 would not release Falla from
his contract. The petition alleges that
Shreve contracted bill of $307. S3 which
he refuses to pay and Falla has also re-
fused to pay the 5000 guaranteed by him,
when asked to do so.

At least four new business blocks are

CARRIED THE WAR INTO AFRICA
The City Council Has Decided to
Meet the Water Works Injunction
by Aggressive Warfare,
And Will Raise the Question Of the
Legality Of the Water Fran
chise by Way of Answer.

The city council have determined to
meet the question raised by the injunc-
tion suit brought by the Great Falls
Water company, in which they seek to
restrain the city from transferring
money from the water fund to the gen.
eral fund, by counter attack on the
validity of the water company'sfranchise.
This action is a result of a meeting of
a number of the large taxpayers at Paris
Gibson's office Sunday afternoon. There
were present on that occasion Paris
Gibson, Ira Myers, E. G. Maclay, r. S.
Ford, Robert Vaughn, A. w. Kingsbury
and others and most of the aldermen
1t was decided that the city should own
its own water works, and that the
first step in that direction should
be taken at once by testing the
validity of the franchise held by the wa
ter company. TO do this the Injunction
suit will be contested on the ground that
the complainant, the Great Falls Water
company has no interest in the water
fund as it has no legal franchise or con-
tract. The taxpayers present at the
meeting agreed to assist in the case and
a special meeting Of the council was
called yesterday morning for the purpose
of authorizing the employment of addi-
tional legal talent to assist the city at
torney in the conduct Of the case. The
mayor appointed AID Williams and Fitz-
gerald as committee to secure two law
yers to aid Attorney Largent. At an
other special meeting of the council held
in the afternoon these gentlemen reported
that they had secured Attys Shores and
Veasey to act in the case and their
action was confirmed.
This opens up the fight on the water
company and it will be kept up, accord
ing to the statement of Aid. Williams,
who is one of the leaders in the move
ment, till it is determined beyond a
question just what legal rights the COM
pany possesses, and what rights the city
has in the matter of water supply. The
injunction case WILL it is expected, come
up on hearing before the district court
next Friday.

ever the impression had gotten
out that the Colonel voted for COL
Breckenridge. very much to the
detriment of his cause. We are
glad Of the correction, and ask
pardon for the injustice we SO in
nocently did him. Now Colonel,
having tried to make the amend
honorable, we desire for the bene-
fit Of self and the information Of
your many Democratic friends,
to ask you to explain why it is,
if you are a Democrat, that you
refuse to submit to Democratic
authority? These are perilous
times, Colonel; men claim the right
to investigate both men and
measures before giving either
their support. We claim no right
to catechise you, but the people
claim the right to know where you
stand. The people wish to know,
and they must know, or they will
not cast their votes for you. We
have been requested to ask; Did
you vote for Judge Denny? If
not, did you vote Tor Col. Owens?
If you did one and failed to do
the other upon what party princi-
pie do you ask Democratic sup
port?' These should not be un-
pleasant question:, and we hope
Mr.. Risk will CRAFTY the party of
which he seeks preferment by
giving public statement of the
facts. These are indeed perilous
times and if the candidate for
public favor will not make a clean
breast OF it. then the voter will
form his own opinion. and it is
not favorable to the candidate
who skulks behind the secrecy Of
the Australian ballot system.
Come Colonel. did you vote for
William c. Owens on the 9th of
last November? If you did. and
you will submit your claims to the
party authorities, we see no
reason why Democrats should not
feel free to give you their support.

Jack Dempsey, a negro convict,
made a bold attempt to escape
from the penitentiary Friday after
noon of last week. Watching his
opportunity when Mr.. Cabbell
Hardin was the only guard at the
gate, he followed close behind
wagon going out and when the
gate was opened darted in on the
opposite side of the wagon from
Mr.. Hardin so that he could not
shoot at him, and ran out the
entrance, turning the corner quick
ly made for Fort Hill. Mr.. Hardin
at first supposed that he was a
"trusty," but asked the ''trusty'
who was assisting him in opening
and closing the gates who the
convict was and the latter repliep
that he did not know him. MIR.
Hardin at once gave the alarm
and called the day guards who
overhauled Dempsey on the side
Of the hill in the rear Of Mr.. e..
w. Mitchell's residence. on
Holmes street. and brought him
back. He is slick rascal, who
