PALMER'S BOOK.
Il Is Entitled "The Story of an Earnest
Life.''

The work which senator Palmer
is now engaged i'm preparing for
publication will be entitled; 1.-The
Story OF An Earnest Life and is
resume of men and events, combined
with a brief history of the senator's
life from the time he came from Ken
tucky until the present. He deals
chiefly with the political history OF
Illinois and the circumstances which
brought him i'm contact withit. One
of the points he dwells upon is his
connection with General Grant,
whom he speaks of as the greatest
soldier of the war. He pays a fitting
tribute to Grants characteristic
ability ON the field and i'm the presi-
Dental chair, and mentions his faults
and imperfections as well.
The senator kept "A diary during a
greater part of his public life. and
from it he obtained much valuable
data for his book. He states that
the first impression he received of
Garfield was that the man was
scholarly, but formal and pedantic,
though he was of "a studious dis
position and paid close attention
to his work as chief of the staff.
General Garfield's views of military
and political affairs were exceedingly
liberal and judicious, but he did not
impress Senator Palmer as a man
who possessed either sincerity or
depth of feeling. He was ambitious,
and proved by his conduct that he
would not recklessly share the mis-
fortunes of his chief or any one else.
The book will contain the story OF
Senator Palmer's connection with
the civil war as commander of the
Fourteenth Illinois and the events in
which he participated and will give
causes and their results rather than
events 1t will contain some inter.
esting bits of history connected with
Lincoln and his nomination for the
presidency, and the causes which
conspired to make him prominent
and the man of the people.

Election Returns.

Final figures on this falls state
elections are difficult to obtain.
The Republican victory is so over
whelming that whether the majority
is 10000 or 100000 makes but little
difference and the Democrats are
dismissing the subject as rapid as
possible. Following are the latest

GLASGOW BANK ROBBERS.
Three nasked Men Secure Very Little
Booty.
[Great Falls Tribune.l


Reports from Glasgow tell of n
bold robbery, something ON the Jessie
James order, which occurred their
7:3O o'clock Monday evening. 1t
appears that three men, wearing the
usual masks. heavily armed and
mounted, rode up to Lewis Bros
store, tied their horses in front and.
walking in, yelled hands up" to the
proprietors, clerks and "A dozen or
SO bystanders. The demand was
obeyed with an alacrity that must
have made George Ives, the pioneer
Montana road agent, turn i'm his
grave with envy.
One of the highwaymen stood at
the door with Winchester and for
bade anybody moving. while his
two pals turned their attention to
the large safe in the rear of the store
where Lewis Bros. conduct a small
banking business. Finding il locked.
they commanded one of the proprie-
tors to unlock il forthwith backing
up the order with threats of instant
death unless obeyed. Mr.. Lewis
said il was time lock, and he nor
no other living man could open the
safe until the next morning without
using explosives.
The robbers soon satisfied them
selves that such was the case and
reluctantly turned their attentiun to
the crowd, deliberately 'going
through" each man, taking his money
and valuables. After realizing about
500 i'm cash and several watches, the
robbers backed out of the store,
mounted and fed to the hills. A
posse led by Sheriff Willis was soon
hot on their trail, but from last
accounts had not captured them
As both pursuers and pursued are
heavily armed it is more than likely
that II they have met by this time
somebody has been killed.

FROn ALASKA.
Charles T. Suiienger Writes An Interesting
Letter From Q Far OFF Country.

TANANAw STATION, Aug. %.
EDITOR ARGUs.-Owing to the fact
that it is a rainy day and l am COM
PEELED to stop sluicing I thought
wot-ld write a short article to the
paper to let the outside world have
an idea of what this country is like,
according to my poor calculating
ideas.
This is a territory about 5000
miles square and unpopulated except
with Indians or Alaska natives by
which name they are more
kncwn, and about 1000 miners and
fioaters. These l 200 are mostly all
located on about 500 miles of the
length and drains all of Alaska that
lays on the coast side of the range
and a large amount of Canadian
territory. The Yukon is supposed
to be larger than the Mississippi and
is termed 1.-THE mother of all rivers"
The waters are filled with salmon and
white fish which the Indians catch
in large quantities and dry for winter.
The banks are thickly grown with
scrubby spruce or fir, cottonwood,
alder, willow and birch. The game,
one of the most important things in
this country, is not 80 plentiful as
at one time i'm the western states but
we have all we need to eat. This
has been a good fur country hut the
Alaska Commercial Co. which buys
all the furs. have diminished the
supply considerably.
| The crystal sheet that comes over
the Yukon about the first of October
remains until about May 2Oth Of the
following year. During the summer
the water becomes quite warm and
the Indians ply upon it with their
canoes nearly as much as the negroes
upon the waters of the southeast,
but they sing "a different tune when
the northern lights begin to- show
themselves i'm the fall. The country
we regard as one of living wonders,
of the midnight sun and everlasting
darkness.
/ suppose the question that inter
ests us all here is bothering you
their just the same viz. mining and
gold dust. /, for one, have not
made my home stake yet but
hope to soon. There are as good
mining camps here as there ever
were in North America, and but one
tenth of the country has been pros
pected by the white, man. There
are large deposits of placer gold and
much gold bearing quartzformation
also as cheap "a grade of quartz al
anywhere in Montana or Utah.
Our climate is one of the very
: healthiest i'm North America and
that is enough. Our winters are the
: longest and summers the shortest
but for all that the country is build
ing up fast. We have three stean
boats on the Yukon, one of which
carries 200 tons and the other tive
300 tons, beside several small boati
which carry from forty to fifty tons
There are a number of missionar.
schools and all seems to be progress
ing in a fair way. I think If thil

of it's present latitude 1t would be tn

there were three or four men in the
party of officers who came to the
house that night; and that they
pointed pistol at Ella Gays head
and thrust her ahead of them up the
stairs. just as Mrs. Gay had said.
She testified to finding the threaten

not repeat its contents.
William Gay. jr.. of Butte, the de
fendant's son, was called to testify
to Il conversation with Harry Gross
