The report published in Mondays is
sue of this paper relative to the uneX-
planned absence of Agent Becker from
the Crow agency does not, on further
Investigation, appear to have been war
ranted. says the Yellowstone journal.
AS ascertained now. Mr.. Becker is ap-
sent from the agency and absent with
out any public explanation of his where
abouts, but it is understood among his
friends that he has gone to Washington
to make certain explanations to the In
dian department that he has been un-
able to get before the department in
any other way. Though it has not
been the subject of commept in TINS
paper, it is in the knowledge of the
public hereaboutS that special lnVeS-
tigat ton of Agent Becker's conduct OF
the Grow agency has been in progress
at that place for some weeks. ana
those who are not friendly to Becker
have not been slow in declaring that
the investigat ton would result in MS
removal. From Beckers side 1t is
stated that the proceedings have been
wholly one-sided; that none but MS
enemies have been heard as witnesses
and that he has been refused the COM
mon and usual privileges of being pres
ent at the proceedings and cross-ex-
aminng witnesses and also of being
heard in his own behalf, personally and
through witnesses Such situation
would certainly warrant the effort MT.
Becker is supposed to have made to
get his side of the contention befofe
the reviewing officer. and it is also
supposable that in departing on TINS
errand he would not declare his IN
tPntiOn from the hOu6etOpS.

IRRIGATION in Montana.

From Donald Bradford. president Of
the state arid land commission, we
learn that the work thus far under
taken i'll the eastern part of the state
is proving quite satisfactory an, is al
tracing some attention and few set
tiers from the East says the Boulder
Age Mr.. Bradford is thoroughly in
earnest in the reclamation of the arid
lands of the state and the placing of
workers upon them. He believes. to use
the general expression. that land is the
heritage of all the people and that
every man should be given share of it
if he is willing to make use of it by
cultivation. and that in case he is poor
he is entitled to state aid in making a
start. To illustrate what might be done
in peaceful pursuits. as contrasted with
the waste of money, energy and life in
war, he calls attention to what the re-
suit would be for the upbuilding of the
West and for the improvement of con-
ditions of individuals if the men now
employed by the government to shoot
down the people of the Philippines were
placed on Western lands armed with
pick and shovel instead of rifle were
under capable leadership and conlr |
in their work. and We're given the reg
uar army pay of SIS per month and
sustenance, and We're engaged in dig
ging irrigating canals, raising products
from the soil and making homes. 1t is
a fruitful theme for contemplation.

with equanimity the kissing and gasp
ing of the intolerant pie gorged press.
With Abraham Lincoln, the 1ndepea-
dent believes that a nation which de-
stroys the liberties of a weaker people
cannot long, under a just God, retain
it's own liberties. With General Grant,
the Independent believes that the for
chile annexation of a foreign land
against the will of the people, is follow
ing the bad example of European
monarches. AS Lincoln would as
Grant would, the Independent opposes
the present policy of the Mckinley ad-
ministra ton. and the Independent will
continue to express that opposition, the
pie phalanX to the contrary notWith-
standing.

Drilling for the Fourth.

Hamilton is to have a Fourth Of July
celebration worthy of the town, says
the Ravaili Republican. For some time
it amounted to almost certainty that
no celebration would be had, and under
these circumstances the Republican
advocated the idea that all of our peo-
pie who could get away go and helE
Stevensville out in it's celebration, hav-
ing good time themselves and also
showing that a good feeling existed In
this place for our sister town doWr

pie have determined to have time OF

WHAT THE PRESS OF MONTANA
FINDS TO TALK ABOUT

Col. Wilbur L. Sanders of Helena is
claimed by the republican party Of
Montana as one of it's bright and shin
ing lights, says the Livingston Post.
The colonel, it must be admitted, is a
bright particular star in more ways
than one, and chief among the charac-
teristics which have made THE Old
War Horse" revered among his political
associates is the quality of that able
and eloquent gentleman's backbone.
The colonel is pugnacity pefsonitied,
and he has yet to see the day when he
was obliged to take back seat in mat
ters political, or stood in awe of the
dictations of his own or any other par
ty. This propensity to have mind of
his own has earned the doughty colonel
a fiuctuating fame among the repub-
leans of this state. When Sanders
sides in With the schemes of the politi-
cal sachems of the g. o. p., he is all
right and nothing is too good for him.
but when this obstreperous old warrior
refuses to be a bobber on the republl-
can fish line, his political compeers feel
like retiring him on full pay for lie,
with the understanding that, like
Egan, he will hold his job as long as
lie holds his tongue. The expressions
used by Sanders in his speech at the
Custer battlefield Decoration day, when
he came out fiat-footed and said he did
not believe in expansion, is a sample of
his political misdeeds and a fair illus
tration of the way he occasionally
gives his fellow republicans a case of
cold feet. Sanders doesn't care. He
don't believe in expansion and is not a
bit particular who knows it. More than
that, he had a pretty poor opinion of
the people who have swallowed the eX-
pansion bait, hook and sinker, and
looks upon those who talk much and
think little as pretty small potatoes.
The colonel is all right. He is as proud
Of his country as any one can be, but
he knows what is needed to make a
nation great and is not to be bam-
boozled into indorsing a scheme for ma
tional grandeur which threatens the
permanence and purity of national pol
icies as delivered to the nations citi-
Zens by its founders.
