dirty insinuations have been mace
AGAINST the county officials, mas now
reached a show down. In this week
issue of the Northwest Tribune. tne
editor accuses County Clerk Williams
and Commissioner Hendricks or TAM
nering with sealed bids. This is the
,i,st time that Editor Faulds has MADE
anv omen accusations, all OF his pre-
vlous charges having been so wordeo
that no personal allusion was con-
tanned in them.
AS a result of the publication OF the
article referred to, Messrs. Williams
and Hendricks are in MISSOURI to-day
consulting with legal advisers as 10
what course to pursue. f. Z. Weosler
and ]. X. Wood have been retained as
attorneys by the gentlemen. NO action
will be taken until Ii Is known Whetne,
or not Judge Woody will call grand
iurv to investigate the charges, as II
is considered to be properly grand

occasion to deplore the existence oil
such an unreasonable state of a1airs
In Rayalli county as is found there
The whole business grew out OF an IN
significant matter Nobody who knows
Messrs. williams and Hendricks VIII

grave charges made against them
They are honorable, respected citizens
and are above the suspicion of such Q
terrible accusation.

Abyssinia offers in the high lands
into which Italy must advance to
avenge her defeat the same fighting
races which drove the British troops
back from Khartoum and broke
British square" The creed OF the
Abyssinians is Christian and of the
Soudanese Moslem, but in race the two
are much alike, and Italy has before
her troops a savage war of the first
magnitude. If, as reported, Russia
and France choose to wink at the ex-
port of arms to Abyssinia, the work
before Italy may well overtax all her
resources. 1t is certain to strain them,
and 1T will be years before the con-
uuered territory can yield a revenue,
and Italy is already carrying all the
debt its resources permit.

MIR. suffer Tells the People How HIS
Buildings Are Progressing

Missoula. Jan. 11.-Prominent among
the Garden City visitors Is Charles
Suffer, the well known MISSOURI con-
tractor and the successful bidder for
the construction of the agricultural
college at Bozeman and the state nor
NAL at Dillon. Mr.. Suffer comes from
Philipsburg, where he has just COM
pleted the work of supervising the
erection of a fine brick school house.
The structure is a model one and gives
general satisfaction.
To a Standard reporter Mr.. suffer
said that work is even now progress
ing on the agricultural college. Con-
tracts have already been let for the
necessary brick and stone. There VIII
be five buildings in all, the first OF
which will be completed June i, and
the others a month later. The instltu-
ton will be a marvel of architectural
beauty and a credit to the state.
With regard to the state normal.
work will be pushed with the opening
of spring. 1t is Mr.. Suffers purpose
to establish a brick yard at Dillon.
which will be placed in charge OF Jo-
seph Riddle of this city. The clay al
that point is of a superior quality and
brick can be manufactured on the
ground at a great saving.
Mr.. Suffer now owns a half-interes'
brick always has been manufactured
here for less money than at any point
in the state and that the local product
is of such a high grade that 1t will
always command the attention OF
builders and finds a ready market. He
states that the local yards will be
pushed to their capacity next season
and that more men will be given en-
ployment at good wages than ever be-
fore.
Mr.. Suffer will remain in the city un
til next Monday. when he goes to Ham
ilton on a business visit, which vii
probably consume about two weeks o
his time. Later he will depart fo

A MOUNTAIN OF ORE.
Major Jameson Has a Good Thing In
sight.

Missoula, Jan. 11.-Major Jameson of
Eight Mile has been in town for a day or
two. The major has force of men at
work on the White Cloud again and the
mine is showing up in fine shape. The
quality of the ore has improved greatly
and there is no limit to the extent of the
ore body. The whole mountain is ore, and
If the improvement In quality continues
Major Jameson will have one of the
greatest mines in the northwest. Not long
ago a well-known mining expert reported
upon the mine to Major Jameson and his
opinion fully warrants the claims which
the major makes for his property. Nobody
deserves a good mine any more than Ma
ior Jameson. who has worked patiently
and systematically upon the development
of the mine which now promises so much.
