COURT AT WORK.
Adjourned Session OF the Deeember
Term JMeets-Juries ImpaneIed
and Business Begins.


Judge Townsend convened the
djourned session of the De-
cember term of district court at
this place. The King school
building had been hurriedly ar
ranged for the use of the court.
This building, while wholly in-
adequate for the purpose, will
:, 1swer as a temporary make
shift until such time as the
authorities can make other ar
angements. This morning the
officers found it impossible to
keep order, as every movement
about the house was noticeable.
The presence of carpets in the
d sles will greatly reduce the
disorder, and it is probable that
provision will be made for them
at once.
The reports of the court off
cials were approved by the
court.
Grand and petit jurors were
then qualified, and the former
retired at once to their room in
charge of Bailiff Boyd. During
their deliberations they will be
attended by Assistant Prosecu-
tor Gaines. The grand jury is
the same as during the first ses-
sion, except as to the foreman,
j R. Holland, who was ex-
cused and G. II. Bruce substi-
tuted.
The petit jury is composed Of
the following gentlemen: J. Nj.

The case of Applegate VS.. Nj.
Z. & 7. Ry. was called, and
considerable time of the court
vas occupied by the attorneys
yer the question of a continu-
nce-the defendant asking for
and the plaintiff protesting.
During the colloquy the attor-
ney for the plaintiff made some
startling statements regarding
the testimony of one of defend
ants absent witnesses, and it
seemed not unlikely that there
would be some interesting de-
velopments, but the matter was
passed over.

send oYerruled the application
of defendant for continuance in

is hearing the same.

The Democratic press generally
manages to get a little comfort out
of elections in off years. Even a
slight falling off in the Republican
vote gives them cheer. While the Re-
publican ticket vas elected in Yer
mont from top to bottom, the editor
of the Great Falls Tribune appearst to
be delighted because Democracy was
not buried out of sight by Republi-
can votes. The Democrats should be
allowed all the consolation they will
ever get from the Vermont election
returns.

An Affecting Scene.

President Mckinley visited Mon
tauk Point a few days since and per-
sonally inspected the hospital and
the camp generally. The following
is one of the many touching incidents
OF his visit and in itself goes far to re-
flute the lies of the yellow journals
about the condition of the camp and
neglect of the sick soldiers:
Won't you tell me how you feel
and whether there is anything | can
do for you"
.'Tiie president of the United States
to the soldier.
1t was like an electric shock to the
man. He Strengthened up and by a
superhuman effort raised his head up
on his left hand and saluted with his
right. Immediately he fell in Il heap
on his cot and with tears in his eyes
whispered:
IL didn't know you, sir; 1 am very
weak
Eyes, poor fellow" said the presi-
dent in IA voice that trembled, 'this
is not the time for you to salute me.
I'm here IL see how you are and
what i can do for you"
THANK you said the soldier; but
l only want my strength back SO
that | can go home again. | suppose
I'll have to wait for that"
Il hope you won't have to wait
long" said the president.
Il want you to tell the president
whether you have wanted for any

ton said the man.

The Republican county convention
occurs next Saturday. The returns
from the primaries indicate a good
attendance, though ii may not be as
large as two years ago owing to the
fact that il is an off year, there being
fewer Offices to fill and less strife on
the part of candidates. Delegates
should consider well the work before
them and make wise selections of
candidates. 1t il not important
from what section of the county the
candidates come, only so they are
competent and worthy men. The
field is open tn all and no mistakes
should be made. III the outside has
strong men and vote-getters for the
various offices, they should not hest
tate to present their claims before the
convention. The availability of can
didates for all of the Offices should be
carefully considered before the hour
of meeting. The platform should be
straightforward and unequivocal,
standing squarely on the declara-
tions Of the last national convention
as regards the money question. If a
strong ticket is named it will be
elected from top to bottom.
