Election for Trustees and Site.

The annual school election will be
held Saturday next, when successors
to II. q. Jackson and T. H. Mackey
will be chosen.
Owing to the few sites for the new
school house which had been pro-
posed within the prescribed time and
the indefinite shape in which these
proposals were made, the school
board has extended the time for
the proposal of such sites to Friday
evening next, the evening prior to
the date upon which the sites will
be submitned to popular vote. Jo-
seph Pratt has proposed three sites.
One of these lies between the resi-
dences of A. w. War; and ARA No
BILE and is valued at $3.50, a second
lies near the residence of +. Z. Smith
and is valued at the same figure, and
the third lies near the Catholic
church and is partially on land
owned by Mr.. Pratt and partially
that of A. j. Johnson. The latter
site is valued at 800. Each site is
one block in size. Another site pro-
posed is a block belonging to Mrs.
Lucy Hogue and lies near W. S. Per-
kins' residence. This site is valued
at $500.

earlier this week. The report of the
board of inquiry confirmes rumors OF
the past few weeks that the explos-

now has the matter in hand and the
president will in a few days send a
message to congress dealing entirely
with Cuban affairs. In fact the mes.
sage is expected before the close oil
this week. What Spain will do as
regards the Maine affair is problem.
atical and not the vital issue. The
Independence of Cuba will probably
be demanded and then will come the
tug of war. The situation is becom.
ing hourly more critical and a few
days at least will determine whether
we are to have peace or war.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Mch. %, 3 p. m.
There were no new developments
in the Spanish-American situation to-
day. In the house no debate over
the report of the Maine court of in
quiry occurred and in the senate the
only features which might be consid-
cred the outgrowth of the Maine dis
aster were the introduction of three
resolutions looking to the indepen-
dence of Cuba. These were intro
duced by Foraker of Ohio, Rawlins
of Utah and Frye of Maine.
War preparations go steadily on,
but these have almost become n rou-
tine rather than q sensation.
The reply from Spain in reply to
the transmission of the report of the
naval court Ofinquiry is not expected
for several days and the general feel
ing seems to be that the president
will shortly take steps toward rec
ognizing the independence of Cuba
without any regard to the Maine
affair.

Reducing the Sheriff's Force.

Elsewhere will be found a letter
from Commissioner Slayton on the
action of the board in reducing the
sheriff's force by cutting off n dep
uty, the reduction to take effect on
April LIST.
Mr.. Slayton produces some very
good points in sustaining the action
of the board in this matter and cites
Yellowstone and Meagher counties
as examples which Fergus could well
initiate in the conduct of the sheriff's
office. 1t is plain to anyone that
Mr.. Slayton does not believe in par
simony as regards the sheriff's office.
He would not cripple the court nor
defeat the ends of justice by reducing
the number of our peace officers, but
he believes with many Others, that
we have reached that point in civil
cation and better government when
it does not require SO many officers
to maintain good order and attend
to the official business of the sheriff's
office.
When the county was newer and
certain portions infested with horse
and cattle thieves and there were
long and arduous rides in the saddle
| to bring the lawbreakers to justice
the force could not have been safely
reduced. But conditions have great.
ly changed in the past few years, not
only in Fergus but in other counties
of the state.
or curse the sheriff will still have
the lawful right to appoint a deputy
if his services are demanded and pos.
sibly during u busy court session it
may become necessary to do SO, but
| we do not believe Sheriff Waite
would abuse the power vested in
him by mourning unnecessary eX
pense upon the county during a pc
Rod of quiet and tranquility.
In the consideration of this matter
the Mud Geyser stated that Chair.
man Phillips opposed the cutting
down of the force. AS the motion
was made by Mr.. Corbly and sec.
onded by Mr.. SlaytOn it was deci-
ded without Mr.. Phillips vote. In
discussing the matter Mr.. Phillips
only expressed a doubt as to whether
the force would be efficient after cut
ting off one deputy, and thought
that if the sheriff exercised his right
to appoint a special deputy that his
salary would amount to as much il
not more than a regular. If it can
be demonstrated that the sheriff can
get along with n man less, the ac,
ton will meet the hearty approval
of Chairman Phillips.

No Redress at Law.

Perhaps the two most difficult
things to prove at law are purjury
and libel. AT least it is difficult to
secure a verdict Of conviction in the
latter-particularly in r & u s
county. While the law of libel is
very liberal in this state rs regards
the freedom OF the press, local feeling,
influences and preiudices cannot be
| eliminated altogether in the conduct
of such u case.
In the cases against Il. j. Johns
and Fred Hoffman, charged with
criminal libel by VIM. T. Mcfarland,
the iuries brought in a verdict of ac-
quittal la both instances. MIR. Hoff-
man had asserted and thesaid Johns
had published an item stating that
Mr.. Mcfarland was drunk while act
ing In his official capacity in attend
ing an inquist at Utica. Now, as a
matter OF fact, all the evidence went
to show and it was clearly proven
that Mr.. Mcfarland was no drunk
on that OCCASION, as charged. Yet
in both instances the jury acquitted
the defendants. Apparently no at
tempt was made to sustain the
charge against Mcfarland the sole
effort being made to escape the
penalty by taking advantage of the
leniency, technicalities and quirks of
the law of libel. For instance,
it must be shown that the publisher
entertained malice toward the COM
plainant, or the item was merely a
matter of misinformation. In most
instances this requirement would be
just and a safe guide for any jury.
But we don't believe it should have
cut any figure in the Johns case.
Hoffman was simply a victim in the
hands of an unprincipled scoundrel.
1t could not be proven that Hoff-
man authorized the publication of
the statements made by him, hence
he could hardly be held responsiblefor
their publication, but there is no
doubt that the editor of the Mud
Geyser grasped after such an item
with all the eagerness of a drowning
man after a straw, knowing that
the facts were about as tangible.
The truth was a small matter with
one who has the reputation of being
a constituencies liar and q black
guard. 1t was the opportunity to
publish something detrimental to
Republican officials that gave him
satisfaction and had the thought
struck him to originate such a re-
port it would have served the pur-
pose fully as well and Mr.. Hoffman
might have been left out of the case.
ser could not have been moved by the
sombre and grewsome circumstances
which brought the to Utica.
There should always exist the proper
decorum in the presence of the dead,
no viewer humble their station had
been in life. One who has never ex.
hibited any particular regard for the
living could hardly be SO solicitous
about the dead.
Although Mr.. Mcfarland clearly
proved the charge false, even to the
satisfaction of the jury, he did not
succeed in fastening a penalty upon
his accusers. All of which shows the
folly of resorting to the court for re-
dress in such matters. The law of
libel in Fergus county is apparently |
a dead letter and If anyone has a
of this character in the
he will find it more economical
to the county and more satisfactory
to himself to take the law into his
own hands,
