Owing to there being no quorum Of

Enforcing the Scab Lsw.

GREAT FALLS, June 1.-The trial of
Thomas Chamberlain, one of the
large sheep owners of this section,
charged with driving scab-infected
sheep in close proximity to healthy
bands, was begun in Justice Bur-
leigh's court this afternoon and
after the introduction of a few wit.
nesses was adjourned until to-mor-
row. The defense will attempt to
show that the sheep when driven
across the county were not scabby.
while the prosecution will contend
that since last year the band had
been dipped five times, and while at
the end of last season they were
probably clean, they have since been
inciosed in the old scabby pen and
are consequently now infected. As
this is the first case of this kind un-
der the new law a considerable
amount of interest is being taken in
It,. DIR. Knowles, state veterinarian,

Chamberlain was held to the dis

applied for a writ of supersedeas for
the purpose of staying the execution
of sentence, but this was denied by
the court. An application for leave
to appeal from this decision to the
supreme court of the United States
was then granted. Although 1T is an
open question whether, In view OF
denial of the writ of supersedeas the
order of the court acts as stay of
proceedings, Attorney General Fitz-
gerald told Warden Hale to take no
action in the premises pending the
appeal. AS the United States su-
prpme court does not meet again un-
til October next. this virtually means
a respite for ak months at least.

tie ON the wool schedule of the tariff
bill; another by Butler on his resOlu-
tiOn to amend the constitution SO as
to give congress power to impose in
come taxes. Mantle was recognized
and addressed the senate for two
hours. He said that there had been
no opportunity for presenting the
wool growers side of the contention
in the other branch of congress for
the reason that, owing to the brief
time allowed for debate, the wool
schedule had never been reached in
that body. He presented 1t fully and
supported with numerous tables and
statictics the wool growers side of
the controversy and showed the
enormous losses sustained by the
wool growers in the depreciation OF
the value Of sheep and wool during
the past six years. He declared that
by reason OF the enormous importa-
tiOns in anticipation of the enact
ment of the tariff law, the wool
grower would not receive much ben
eft from protective tariff for four
years to come. He asserted that
whenever tariff law IL to be ell
acted the powerful manufacturing
interests of the country are always
on the ground pushing their inter-
ests- while the farmers and wool
growers are isolated and scattered

ton and thus lacking effective or

IN the Largest Output the More Stable Profits.

1t may be objected perhaps, that it
is not large capital but machinery
that has tended to lower prices.
Large capital provides adequate
machinery, and 1t is only large capi-
tai that can keep up with the neces-
sary improvements in machinery,
and always secure the best. / have
already shown the enormous rise in
wages during the perion of this con-
sOlidation OF capital. Do the large
concerns pay a lower rate than the
small? Does the Traction Company
of New York pay it's employees less
than the old lines of horse cars?
Does the department store pay
lower salaries than the small store
pays? Does the working-man In the
supply the department store receive
a lesser rate for his work than when
he is supplying the separate estab-
lishments? Does the press pay less
for printing and for composition
than when the journals were smaller?
The most casual examination will
show that there is not a single one
of these various branches of industry
where the tendency In wages has not
been upwards since their expansion
and the consequence fall in the price
of their commodities. To he sure,
just recently, this upward tendency
of wages has been checked by busi-
ness depression. But / will venture
to say the cuts in wages in the small
concerns have been more excessive
and of more general occurrence than
in the large concerns-fOr the very
sufficient reason that their smaller
reserves of capital have made such
cuts a matter of greater necessity.
will venture another assertion, too,
that the working-man's wages Just
recently have not suffered a decline
in equal ratio to the contraction ol
the profits of the employer In the
industry in which he is engaged. On
the contrary SO far from the large
concern paying a smaller rate o.
wages the tendency would be fol
them to pay higher.
In the largest output is the largest
and the most stable profits. Thai
concern enjoying the best profits car

MORE BOUNTY FRAUDS.
choteau County Officers Uncover q Nest Of
Rascals.

GREAT FALLS, June 2.-The arrest
of Havre and Barney Cardwell of
Big Timber on Saturday last by
Sheriff Clary of Fort Benton, charged
with forgery and perjury in connec-
ton with wolf and coyote bounty
certificates, as told in Mondays
Standard, gives indication of lead
ing to the unearthing of a gang of
conspirators organized for the pur-
pose of defrauding Choteau and
other counties. Already the Cho-
teau county authorities have gone
to work on the matter and much
evidence of valuable character has
been collected. None, however, will
be given out, as the evidence already
gathered does not implicate all the
parties believed to be concerned in
the plot. 1t is not at all implobable
that Judge DuBose. if the evidence
warrants, will call a grand jury
together for the porpose of sitting
the matter to the bottom. Upon
good authority 1T is stated that the
plot includes some of the prominent
citizens of Choteau county and when
the matter comes to a head start
ling disclosures of how the county
has been robbed Of thousands OF
dellars by the ring will be made. 1t
is believed that the ring has it's head
quarters in Choteau, but has not
confined its operations to that
county alone. A portion of the evil
dence will come from the men now
under arrest, who are all half-breeds.
The manner of operating has been
such that the ringleaders have not
been actively engaged in the business,
but have come in for their share of
the spoils. They have had i'm their
employ a number of half-breeds to
whom they furnished funds to pro-
ceed to the most thickly infested
country and there secure all the skins
possible. A great majority, it is be-
lieved, have come from the North
west Territory. The skins were
brought into Choteau county In
small lots and there kept until a
goodly number had been piled up.
The half-breeds would then present
them them TO the county clerk, make
the necessary affidavit, have the ears
punched and receive the warrant.
This money, it is alleged, was then
divided up among the ring and the
n &aI
hunt. In order that a suspicious
number of skins might not be pre-
sented in Choteau county, it is
alleged, they We're palmed off, in the
same manner, in other counties
where those presenting them had
friends who could identify them. A
searching inquiry will be made.

they would lose the support of this
numerous element i'm the ensuing
campaign. He asserted the Nc
Kinley law had not afforded neces-
sary protection to wool growers
and quoted statistics to prove his
assertion. Hequoted Aldrich's state
ment that the proposed senate rates
would give from 10 to 20 per cent.
more protection to wool growers
than they had ever received under
any former tariff and produced sta
tistics to show that the promised
rates were much lower instead Of
being higher.
