gree came up Monday. II appears that the
defendants were the owners OF the Blue

junction restraining them from working
the property until the ownership OF the
claim was settled by the courts. The de-
endants regarded the injunction until
other parties who had no right on the
claim went on the claim and began sack
ing the ore TO take IL away. The defend
ants made matters exceedingly lively for
the intruders. several shots being fred.
The defense turned upon their right TO de-
fend the property. They were bound over
10 the district court.
Sheriff Young went TO Cokedsle Sunday
afternoon and brought down James
Shields. who was lodged in jail. charged
with assault in the first degree on the per-
son of Gavin Pollock. II Is charged that
the defendant did some shooting with the
evident intention of taking life. The trial
will take place tomorrow morning.

EVERY INCH A MAN.
That IL the Opinion the Neihart Herald
Has of w. G.. Conrad

That IL the Opinion Inc Nefhart Herald
Has of w. G. Conrad.
Great Falls, Oct. 2.-The strength OF
a candidate must indeed be strong when
a newspaper of opposed political prin-
ciples steps aside from its path to pay
him as complimentary a tribute as the
following from the Neihart Herald, one
Of the staunchest republican papers in
the state:
Hon. w. @. Conrad of Great Falls.
one Of the leading stockholders of the
Queen Mining and Milling company. is
in Neihart this week inspecting prog
ress upon his mines. He is sanguine
over the outlook for silver, not only be-
ing a believer In the righteousness of
the bimetallic cause. but having i'm
plicft faith in its final triumph. He ex-
presses himself as convinced that the
contractionists have reached that stage
OF their movement where their own well
fare demands a cessation Of the system.
The theory Of falling prices so vigor-
ously promulgated by Mr.. Bryan wv
years z Is being unquestionably
proved and all the prophecies OF the sill
yer leaders are being verified by the
events of recent current history. The
indications are that the free coinage
idea is more firmly grounded with the
mass of Americans han ever before.
Speaking of the Queen mine. Mr.. Con-
rad told a reporter that there is moth
ing new either in activity or in project,
so far as he is able to say at present.
The work Is moving ahead with the
usual speed. They are shipping 200 to
240 o n Of ore per month and employ
ing 20 to 25 men. He said the mine Is
looking well. and expressed himself
pleased with the management of Super
%intendent Nelson.
Hon. w O. Conrad of Great Falls ia
being favorably mentioned by the dem
ocratic press for the office OF United
States senator. He has received the in
dorsement of three county conventions
and it is said will have some staunch
supporters in the legislature. Mr.. Con-
rad personally has never before mixed
In politics, on which account he will be
especially strong with his party. The
Herald is not democratic. but II consid-
ers Mr.. Conrad thoroughly honorable
and trustworthy-and every inch a
man.
