displayed on the part of the better ele-
ment of society of Glasgow and Valley
county to prosecute and properly pun
fish the tough characters and rowing
criminals who have given that partic-
ular section of Montana a disreputable

present term of court will be watched
with great interest by the people of
Northern Montana. During the last
term of court held in Glasgow Judge
DuBose denounced the verdict render
ed by a jury in one or two criminal
cases tried before him, and intimated
in strong language that If criminals
could not be punished in Valley county,
law abiding citizens would be justified
in protecting their lives and property
as best they could without regard to
the result.

deal of red tape about the proceedings,

of the positions are left out in the cold,
