: Missoula. March 9.--The contested tax
case of reservation cattle owners who
were assessed last year by the Mlssoula
county officers will probably be sub
United to the district court at its next
session on an agreed statement of facts.
The question is simply one of law 1t
is whether or not the county has the
right to assess personal property on the
reserve. 1t is claimed by the officers
that recent decisions have made il he
duty Of county officers to attend to mat
tiers on the reserve: the residents of that

COMMERCIAL DEPRESSION.
That Is the Condition Of Affairs in the
East.

That Is the Condition of Affairs in the
East.
Mlssoula, March &C. A. Barnes and
Mrs. Barnes arrived this morning from
their New York visit. They have been
absent for about six weeks ON a pur-
chasing trip and have returned glad to
get back to Montana. Mr.. Barnes SAYS
that there Is no part of the country SO
prosperous as the Northwest and with
this region and the Middle West elimf-
mated, the country is in a state of COM
mercial depression. In the East there
is no business except what comes from
this section, and the South is but little
better Mr.. Barnes said tonight:
They have made a discovery in the
East. They have found two things that
are exactly alike, in spite of principle
of natural science that no two things
are identically the same. In the East
ern cities, however, they told me that
they had found that Cleveland's fail
ure and Mckinley's prosperity are NOT
a whit different"
On account of this condition of affairs
Mr. Barnes reports rather stagnant
market in the wholesale centers The
only buyers who are taking big stocks
this winter are from the West The
condition of this section is much of n
surprise to the people of the East. They
can't understand It,

Missoula, March 9.-The Rod and Gun

Water company. Walter Graham, who
has served as secretary for a year was
chosen president, and T. r Mcleod

active season. The quail that were i'm
ported from Kansas have all been turn
ed out on ranches, where they will be
watched to see that no pot hunter gets
his fork in on them, and in few weeks
the sportsmen will probably have some
pheasants TO turn out in other sections
A live bird shoot will be held at the

Kidney and Uric Acid Troubles Quickly Cured.
YOU May Have Sample Bottle of the Great Discovery
Dr. Kiner's Swamp Root, Sent Free by Mail.

Men and women doctor their troubles
so often without benefit that they get
discouraged and skeptical. In most
such cases serious mistakes are made
in doctoring and in not knowing what
our trouble is or what makes us sick.
The unmistakable evidences of kidney
trouble are pain or dull ache in the
back, too frequent desire to pass water,
scanty supply, smarting irritation. AS
kidney disease advances the face looks
sallow or pale puffs or dark circles I'M
der the eyes. the feet swell and some
times the heart acts badly. Should fur
ther evidence be needed to find out the
cause of sickness. then set urine aside
for twenty-four hours; If there Is a
sediment or settling ii is also convInc-
ing proof that our kidneys and bladder
need doctoring. A fact often over
looked, is that women suffer as much
from kidney and bladder trouble as
men do.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is the dis
covery of the eminSnt physician and
scientist and is not recommended for
everything, but will be found just what

Missoula, March 9.--The victim Of the

badly used up Tuesday morning. is con-
siderably improved in condition to-day.
His injuries Will not prove serious, but
he will carry a hard-looking face with
him for some days. His nose is badly
out of plumb and his eyes look as if
they were in deepest mourning for
dead relative. A slight cut on his scalp
and a few Commissions on the cheeks and
forehead show that the gentle Spike got
in his work quickly while he was at it.
He flew as soon as gun was pulled on
him. and his marks indicate that he
must have used his fists to good advan-
tage while he was a it,

to uric acid and weak kidneys,
such as catarrh of the bladder,
gravel, rheumatism and Bright's dis

A Resolution of svmpathy.

Honolulu, March l. via San Francisco.
The Hawaiian legislature adopted a
joint resolution extending it's deep and
earnest sympathy to the United States
in the great loss of life sustained by the
destruction of the cruiser Maine, and
the flag over the executive building was
placed at half mast as a mark of sympa-
thy.
II. II. Davies, guardian of Princess
kaiulani, addressed an open letter to the
Hawaiians in which he proposes to aban-
don all further hope of monarchy for the
islands and maintain the republic condi-
tionally upon the cessation of all further
work for annexation on the part of the
American residents of the islands The
proposition does not meet with the appro-
val of either natives or Americans.

Good story From His Old Home in
kentucky.
Missoula, March Ga good story con
corning Col. Tom Marshall of Missoula
comes from his old home in Kentucky,
and was recently published in a Ballard
county paper.
Colonel Marshall. like most other
Kentuckians, was, when a young man,
fond of a good game of draw. During a
session of court in Ballard county there
was game one night among the law
yers in which his honor took a hand
1t was a fVe-handed game until about 3
O'Clock in the morning, when three of
the players, including his honor went
broke and retired. A lawyer from May
field and Colonel Marshall played on
until about /, when the Mayfield lawyer
also lost all he had. Colonel Tom went
TO his room to prepare for breakfast
He lay down for moment to rest and
dropped off to sleep. The court and the
rest of the bar were punctual at the cry
of Hear yei Hear yet at Q O'Clock. but
the genial colonel did not make his APP
pearance until after 10 o'clock. AS Mr.
Marshall was the only counsel for the
plaintiff in the case then on trial bust
ness could not proceed without him. SO
the court had been waiting for over an
hour when the colonel appeared and
took up his case where he had left off
the night before. The court was in
bad humor because of the long delay
and made it manifest by charging up
fine of SO against the colonel for con-
tempt Not at all abashed, Colonel
Tom took his seat and wrote a note to
the court. saying:
Dear Judge-You are perfectly right.
The fine is perfectly in line With judg-
ment and discretion. You win femem-
Der that when you arose from the poker
game last night you were still owing me
$50. Please send me $40 and let the other
SO be credited on the fine. Respectfully.

whole court said:
