Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Big Timber, Mont, May 5.-The May
term of the district court for Sweet
Grass county which convened in
Shank's hall in this town yesterday
bids fair to be one of the longest and
most interesting in the history of the
county. There are about 80 cases in ALL
most of which will come to trial. There
are several criminal cases, the most in
teresting of which is the case against
Richard, Harry and Thomas Cosgriff.
who are charged with assault in the
first degree. The complaint is the out
come of the st. Patrick's day melee at
Greycliff which resulted in quite Sc
rious injury to several OF the partici-
pants.
Last evening the home of Mrs. l.. A.

Yesterday in the district court Judge
Henry rendered a decision oVerruling
the motion for a new trial in the case
of the Big Timber National bank
against j. IL. Duffy ct al, which was
decide last summer in favor of the de-
PENDANTS. The suit was brought to set
aside a mortgage given by Mr.. Duffy
to Charles Mcdonnell of the American
park, and involved about $4,000. The
case will. in all probability, be appealed
to the supreme court.
Memorial day will be observed here by

The construction of the new Northern
Pacific wool house at this point was
commenced a few days ago. 1t will be
mammoth structure, sOx25O feet. The
location will be the same as the old
wool house, which is a disappointment
to the people of the town. Twice now
has the wool house been destroyed by
fire. and each time the fire has been
communicated to adjacent buildings.
f. C. Kinney. the Manhattan civil
engineer who was engaged to make a
preliminary survey for the proposed
system of water works for this town,
arrived Saturday and completed the
work Monday. The necessary elevation
of ISL feet was obtained about one mile
south of the town, and about six miles
further up the Boulder river the line
ran into the river with fall of 13 feet
to the mile. 1t is proposed to bring the
water to the 1S1-foot elevation in a
wooden conduit and from there on In
iron pipes. The present plan will give
the town a supply of 100000 gallons
per day, or enough for a population of
5000 people. Mr.. kinney thinks that
the cost will not exceed $4,000, but he
will forward an accurate estimate in
a few days, after which a meeting of
the citizens will be held and the subject
discussed pro and con. The sentiment
of the people is unanimous in favor of
the water system, but there is some
very formidable opposition to munich
pal incorporation at this time.

the retiring members being S. c. Ken

place of A. T. Elliott and Royal Hax-

in secret executive session, however, re-
fused to confirm these two men for the
police force and this will have to come
up again at the next meeting, which
will be on Thursday evening.
Mayor Benepe recommended again to
the council that steps be taken toward
obtaining a water supply to be owned
by the city and that hydrant permits
and permits for extension of mains,
be refused until the city had purchased
or acquired its own water plant. This
was the most important of his recon-
mendations.
The report of w. G. Alexander, chief
of the Bozeman Volunteer fire depart
ment, was somewhat remarkable.
There had been but seven alarms with
a total loss of $737.26 and insurance to
the amount of $36S.1S, leaving a total
loss to this city by fire of only 1868 0S
for the year 1895. The expense of the
department was only s162.24, with $500
paid to officers as salaries.

Wool and silver.

Great Falls Tribune: A resolutions,
alleged ito have been adopted by the
Wool Growers association of Custer
county, Montana, has been made the
subject for a cartoon in the Minneapo-
lis Journal, the intent being to show
that the wool men of this state are OPP
posed to free coinage. The point is
not well taken and the illustration is
far-fetched, yet its publication shows
to what lengths the goldbug press will
go to discredit the silver sentiment in
this state and attempt to prove that
our people are not practically a unit
upon the subject. These misleading
cartoons and paragraphs may inspire
contempt here, but the fact that they
are scattered broadcast through the
East is evidence that they are expected
to have an effect. For this reason it
is proper that all parties in the state
go on record as soon as possible on the
financial question. This. and this only,
will put a stop to the lying reports that
are being circulated. So far as The
Tribune is advised, no such resolutions
as the one quoted was passed by the
wool growers, which is as follows:
THAT the president of this associa-
ton, in his official capacity, write our
senators and congressman in Washing
ton and ask them to support a tariff
bill placing a reasonable duty on wool,
basis the cartoon represents a ram
butting down a column labeled free
silver and the inscription is, ''Silver
isn't everything, even in Montana"
We do not believe any such resolu-
ton was ever passed by the Custer
county wool growers; but admitting
that il was, how can IL be construed
into an attack upon free coinage? 1t
simply shows that, imrelled by self
interest. the gentlemen asked whether
the industry in which they are en-
gagged could not be benefited by legis-
lation independent of silver. In the al
legged resolution there is nothing of
criticism or censure upon the
course pursued by the Montana
delegation in congress. there is no word
or suggestion of hostility TO silver, yst

indeed clouded. Another misfortune to
the cause is that 1t is differently under

try. In the silver-producing sections,
the cry is for free coinage" meaning
the opening of the minis to the coinage
of silver on the same basis as gold. In
the South and middle West. where the
populist is found and where the old
greenback idea is still in favor, IL is

lief that there is free distribution of
money behind IL somewhere. Thus IL

lieved that IL the government print

more money" they want, while the
silver producer and the silver miner
who are the true silver men, ask only
the rehabilitation of their product as
a money metal. The two ideas have
no relationship or common cause, and
yet their followers are marshaled under
one banner. and the prudent and intel
ligent operator of vast mining schemes
marches to tie battle shoulder to
shoulder on one side with the man
who seriously proposed in the senate of
the United States to issue money ad
libitum on the security of the mineral
that was still in the earth, which, he
declared, belonged to the people, and
on the other, with the man who, IL he
had the power, would confiscate every
dollar of accumulated property in the
country and redistribute ii among his
followers. Is it any wonder that the
intelligent and law-abiding people of
the country array themselves against
the free silver" movement when 1t
presents a front like this? If populism
and anarchy are going to ride into
power on the merits of free coinage,
it will pay every true silver man to
stop and think whether victory at such
price is worth the cost of wine

A PLEASANT AFFAIR.
The Reception Last Wednesday by the
Rocky Mountain Club

Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Livingston, May 5.-The reception
held by the Rocky Mountain club at
their elegant resort in the Merchants
bank block, on Wednesday evening,
was a magnificent affair and was par
ticipated in by upwards of 200 invited
guests. The formal opening of their
new quarters was quite properly re-
garded by this popular literary and So
cial organization as an important
epoch in their existence, and lavish
preparations had been made for the
event, both in the superb and artistic
furnishing and fitting up of the apart
ments and in the arrangements made
for the evenings entertainment. The
luxurious appointments, the works of
art which adorned the walls, the pro-
fusion of plants and flowers which ex-
hailed a pleased fragrance-all bespoke
for the members of the club exquisite
taste and refinement A musical pro-
gramme of exceptional merit had been
arranged and for three hours elysian
strains of music added to the enchant-
menlt of the occasion. After the gen.
edal partaking of a fine and substan-
tial luncheon an adjournment was
taken to the parlors by many of the
guests and dancing INDUCED in until
the merry assemblage broke up.

Another evil result to the deadly
quick luch has come to light and the
complaint has foundation of scienti-
fic probability.
1--WE noticed" said a man. that
every person who acquireh the quick
lunch habit gets fat as soon as he has
come under the regular influence of
the system. Men who had been thin
their whole lives have begun TO ac-
quire noticeable stomachs. and others
with a disposition to stoutness take on
flesh rapidly. 1t is perfectly plain to
see why IL happens. These dairy lunch
cons supply bread. bread bread, the
most fattening thing a man cat eat
unless II be the cakes and pastry that
supplement the bread. There is sugar
in most OF the bread. and IL is impos-
sible to get any one thing in these
places which does not have a tendency
to make a man fat I've watched IL in
a dozen cases and there has not been
an exception. It's all right for the thin
men, but for the fat men it's dreadful
It's so much cheaper for a man TO get
fat than to keep thin. When he COM
mences to diet and confine himself TO
such things as meat and salads. his
luncheon costs him three or four times
as much as IL would IL he could eat the
sandwiches and the cakes and the
quality of the food is not so good
Some philanthropist ought to open a
lunch place where a man can eat
cheaply and still keep his figure. But
| don't see how he could make IL pay
Something has TO be done, however,
10 keep US all from getting fat. be-
cause we cannot AFFORD to pay for any
thing but doughnuts, sandwiches. cakes
