Tom Dolan of Trail Creek Was
Found Guilty.
OF DISTURBING THE PEACE
Dolan Claims He Is Prosecuted Man
and Has Done Nothing Wrong-was
Twice Found Guilty in Butte OF
Beating Matte Anderson.

Ninety days in the county Jail is
the sentence that was passed yester-
day by Acting Police Magistrate Will

him.
The jury in yesterdays trial was
composed of Joe Sogarle. George Bar
ich, John Nye, Dennis O'Leary, Jim
Hicks Arthur Fortier and Tom Dolan.

same as that Of the last trial Matte

week. had been assaulted by Dolan,.
testified that she had lived with the
defendant for long time up to about
seven years ago and that she had sup
ported him. She told the story about
his alleged assault upon her last weak
in the bad lands.
Dolan again denied all the charges
made and claimed he was prosecuted
man. He admitted having twice been
found guilty in Butte of beating Mat
tie Anderson. The other witnesses
were Officer Mayhem and May Sheehan.
The jury returned a verdict of guilty
and recommended Dolan to the mercy
of the court. Justice Devine sentenced
him to three months in the county jail

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Great Falls, Nov. 23.-John Hay, a rail-
road conductor, was booked for assault.
but after Judge Hawkins heard the par
ticulars, he cheerfully RENTED all fines
and released the prisoner. Hays only
misdemeanor consisted in administering
a thorough beating to a Swede named
Nels Nelson, who persisted in insulting
some ladies. Hay polished Nels off nicely
and the judge said he was proud of him.
Owing to the reluctance of the ladies to
appear in the case, Nels was not prose-
cuted, but the drubbing he got he will
probably remember considerably longer
than any Jail sentence

Those Pine Land Contests.

Two cases have been decided against
the settlers in the notorious land con-
tests with the state. George A. Robedew
and Elmer Des Voign, the commissioner
says, did not establish bona fide residence
upon the land before the state made the
second application to file. This phase OF
the case depends upon the construction
placed upon the written evidence sub
mitted to the department The COM
missioners could not find facts set forth
to establish a residence in either case
The register and receiver in the office
were more in touch with the conditions
of bad roads and deep SHOWS than the
Washington officials could be with only
the facts submitted in writing before
them. This fact and the foregoing con.
struction of the evidence brought about
the reversal of the local Office.
