United States Land Office, L~ewistown, Mont,
JANUARY 2, 1899.
To whom II may concern: Notice is hereby
given that the State OF Montana has filed in this

school, under section of the act OF March
2, 1879. The following tracts, embraced in said
list, are IN townships containing mineral claims

a copy of said list, so far as II relates To these
tracts, by descriptive subdivisions, has been
conspicuously posted in this Office for inspec-
ton by any person interested and the public
generally.
Within the next sixty days following the date
of this notice. under the departmental regula-
tions of Nov. q, 1875 (23 l.. d., 459), protests or
contests against the claim of the state to any of
the tracts or subdivisions herein described, on
the ground that the same is more valuable for
mineral than for agricultural purposes, Will be
received and noted for report 10 the general
lane office at Warrington, ID, c. Failure TO
protest or contest the claim of the state to said
land within the time specified will be consid-
cred sufficient evidence If its non-m mineral
char acter, and the selection being otherwise
free from objection, will be for
approval.

note the language ii uses toward
Long and Hobson (who only did the
bidding OF Clark and incidentally
local Republicans, especially Frank
Wright and Jack Waite, and then
contrast the spirit which dictated
each article, and draw your conclu-
sions therefrom, you will have in a
nutshell a proper estimation Of the
honor, virtue and sincerity which
actuates the composer Of that which
weekly fills the columns Of the Demo-
crat.
II Hobson and Long were bride
takers, then there must have been a
br.be-giyer. II they were bribed for
their votes, then some M must have
bribed them to get their votes. There
fore, having voted for Clark, he must
have bribed them, If it is dishonor-
able for them to sell their votes, then
1t must be dishonorable to buy them.
Hence | nm unable to see how so en-
inent a moral refOrmer as the Demo
crat can deride Hobson and Long
and at the same time hold Clark up
to the searchlight of public gaze as a
paragon of truth and virtue. But
the way the Democrat has of shroud-
ing it's own intellect with the belief
that it alone possesses all the virtue
of Fergus county is no trouble to it
at all. Respectfully,
BRECR ORNBAUN.

About 1900 worklngmen are said to

a BRIEF REPLY.

The 81. Paul Pioneer Press we re-
gard as live newspaper. generally up
TO the mark on current public questions.
Thcrcfore we are somewhat surprised
TO see in Its editorial columns an arti-
Gle In regard TO THE ease OF the Unit
cd States versus Utah" which crowds
more errors into a little over half a
column than we have seen In secular
Journal for some time.
The Press should read the Enabling
Act and the Constitution OF Utah In
reference to the compact" between the
people Of Utah and the government. be-
fore INDUCING In further flights OF
fancy or arguments a. TO lts scope and
meaning. Also the Press should IN
uuiro into the facts regarding the
course OF the mormon" Church. Its
missionaries and It's journals before
telling such fairy tales as those In
which 1t INDUCES.
We will not take up space ut this
time 10 reply to all the mistakes In the
Press article. but simply repeat the
lrrefutable statement, that Utah has
fully and faithfully adhered to the
compact" made with the nation. and
that plural marriages are not per-
formed by the "Mormon" church. nor
are they advised. taught encouraged,
or permitted. either by that Church OF
by the State Of Utah. Let that suffice
until something more than stale gossip,
groundlcss rumor and prooncss sus'
pielon are adduced to the contrary.
