Not an "UnhOly War"

Last week, in a brief local, we re-
OF Butte, the local being oc%casioned
by some remarks attributed to him
soon after his arrival in Lewistown.
Later the reverend gentleman called
to ascertain the cause of our state
ment and to deny that he gave utter
ance to sentiments that prompted
the local. As the ARGUS never aims
to do anyone an injustice through it's
columns, we assured Mr.. Roberts
chat we would investigate the matter
and make reparation if WI found
that we had been misinfOrmed.
We regret to say that the remarks
attributed to Mr.. Roberts were made
during a lively tilt between that gen.
tleman and the Rev. Vigus of the
Methodist church of this place, and
it was upon the statement of our
local ptstor, who stands well in this
community as regards veracity, that
our structures we're. based, although
Others have substantiated in part,
the statements OF Rev. Vigus.
1t seems the two parsons locked
horns at once on the war and finally
engaged in a lively, though perhaps
not acrimonious discussion as to their
respective churches. Somestatements
were made of a personal nature re-
garding the Rev. Stull, chaplain OF
the first Montana regiment, which
will probably be ventilated at the
coming Methodist conference. 1t is
due the Rev. Roberts to state that he
simply quoted the Rev. Macarthur,
of the Methodist church" in his refer
ence to the Rev. Stull.
1t is not our purpose to attempt to
repeat here what was said about
Rev. Stub or to enter into the accu-
satiOns or controversy regarding the
