DAY FOR RESOLUTIONS.
Debate Waxed Warm at the Trans-Miss-

Debate waxed Warm at the Trans-Miss-
issippi Congress.
Wichita, Kan. June 2.-This was
ersolutions day for the trans Mississippi
congress-. The debate waxed warm but
never acrimonious over the recommen-
dations to be urged upon congress rela-
tive to Federal aid to state irrigation
projects, subsidies for merchant marine
and grain freight rate discrimination
by railway lines as between domestic
shipments and shipments for export.
The congress adopted resolutions IA
voring arid land cession to states and
federal subsidies to merchant marine,
and denouncing preference in rates to
grain for export. Ringing resolutions
were adopted endorsing the Louisiana
Purchase fair, and urging favorable
congressional action upon the S., 0OO, 900
congressional loan feature of the plan
to raise the desired $15, 600, 900 fair
fund.
The congress endorsed "free homes"
and the opening Of Indian reservation

conferred in the stubborn fight on the

squarely made between those who urged

ing of the public grazing lands by the
states without cession, as against those
who advocated the absolute and NEON.
d%itional cession of all the public lands
to the states and territories. After a
long and stubborn fight between Gov

the members of the committee from
Colorado and Kansas, who favored the
state cession scheme, and George H.
Maxwell of California, aided by I. D.
O'Donnell of Montana and Colonel H.
B. Maxson of Nebraska, representing
the National Irrigation congress-, an
agreement was reached III the commit

lions and policy of the National Irriga-

adopted by the entire trans Mississippi
congress without a dissenting voice.

the last republican national platform
have all been redeemed; the party will
next take up the subject of trusts and
settle it, as it always settles all great
questions, in the interest of the people.
And the Ohio convention, which the
democrats hoped would break up in a
row, was perfectly harmonious. The
two factions of the republican party
had a regular lovefeast, cheered the
name of President Mckinley every
time it was mentioned and nominated
for governor Judge Nash, a personal
friend of the chief executive. Ohio
will this fall sound the tocsin for the
democrats next year; nothing but some
great national calamity will save them.

David Hamilton, clerk of the state
board of examiners, has prepared a re-
port showing the amount of bounty
claims filed with the board from the
different counties during the month of
May. This was the first month that
the new bounty law passed by the last
legislature reducing the bounty on coy
otes to 50 and increasing the bounty on
wolves to S. and offering a bounty of
50 for wolf pups was operative. The
law went into effect April 20 and
claims under the new law were filed on
and after May l. The report shows
that the total amount of claims filed
during the month amounted to s., 636,
as against IS, TAI for the same month
last year. Part Of the claims fled last
month were for animal hides punched
under the old law. If the old law had
applied on all the claims the total
bounty claims for the month would
have amounted to Sc. IA. There were
claims for 225 wolf pups filed. There
were All claims for wolves, 427 under
the old law and 4 under the new law.
There were 1852 coyote claims filed,

H TRUST ISSUE"

The Ohio republicans, at their state
convention last week, adopted this
ringing resolutions:
We commend the action of the Seven
ty-third general assembly of Ohio in
passing the stringent law now on our
statute books, prohibiting the ~organiza-
ton of trusts, and we denounce such
unlawful combinations as inimical to
the interests Of the people. We con-
graduate the people of the state upon
the fact that a republican legislature
enacted this law and we demand its
rigid enforcement. We pledge our
party to such further legislation as ex-
perience may determine necessary to
prevent the formation and operation of
such iniquitous and dangerous comb
nations.
That settles the truse tissue for the
presidential campaign next year. The
national democratic committee, at its
st. Louis meeting the other day, side
tracked silver as a minor issue, was
afraid to oppose expansion and declared
that the national campaign would be
fought on the trust issue. But the re-
publicans are just as strongly opposed
to trusts. the presidents own state hay
ing passed a stringent law against
them. and the national republican plat
form will take a firm stand on the sub
ject.
This leaves the democrats without
an issue and they are again at sea. But
they will patch up something in an en-
deavor to deceive the people; you can
trust the democrats to do that, every
time. Their efforts. however. will be
fruitless. This country is too prosperous
and has gained too much glory under
the present administration to give any
exouse for q change. The pledges Of

The west won a signal victory in the
practical selection, several months be-
fore congress convenes, of Colonel
Henderson of Iowa for speaker of the
next house Of representatives. It is the
first time a speaker has ever been
chosen from west of the Mississippi
river and proves that this section of the
country is recognized as being great in
craftsmanship, as we'll as in industrial
progress and all other things. Colonel
Henderson's long service in congress
we'll fits him for the speakershlp and
he will be a safe and sound leader.

Word came to Chicago today that
James S. Sherman and Serene E.
Payne, New York's aspirants for the
speakership. will withdraw from the
contest in a few days, thus making
Colonel Henderson's election unani-
nous.
When Colonel Henderson's mail and
kilograms showed he had passed the
majority with votes to spare, he sent
word to his colleagues on the Iowa dele

which had been called for tomorrow to
make plans for a vigorous campaign.
He was assured of his election and was
in a position to take his ease and re-
ceive congratulations. These were
showered IN him. They came in the
mails and over the wires and we're &C.
oompanied by extended hands at the
Union League club and in his rooms at
the Auditorium Annex.
The Henderson campaign for the
speakership is a record breaker. 1t
really began in Atlantic City. where
the house committee Of fifteen republic
cans named in CAUCUS to frame a none
tary bill, met a few weeks ago.
Thomas B. Reed at that time permitted
some Of his intimate friends to disclose
the fact that he was to retire from the
house. Colonel Henderson was chair
man of the monetary commission and
it was suggested that he would be the
right man to put in the speakers chair.
Colonel Henderson said today: II
am elected beyond doubt, for I have
more than the required number Of votes
now, and l sit here in this chair with
the knowledge that I have not made a
single pledge. I have not made a single
promise Of committeeship and what is

Once more The Gazette desires to
call the attention of the Billings people
to the fact that they are liable to lose
the splendid endowment offered for a
college in this city or Sheridan by Dr..
G. K. Pearsons Of Chicago. The Sheri-
dan people, as before stated, are active
ly at work: evidently they will have a
large sum subscribed by the time DR..
Pearsons arrives, some time this month.
Billings should pursue the same course
the committee ought to be in the field
now soliciting subscriptions. If it
should turn out, when DR.. Pearsons ar
rives, that Sheridan had raised her
quota and Billings has done nothing in
that direction, the former city would
probably be selected. The people of
Sheridan are at work. They are work.

from the last issue of the Post of that
city, proves:
Ale all the people in Sheridan oun
ty and city interested in the location of
a college in Sheridan? We ask this
question in order to determine the use
of working for the next fifteen days.
The city can be depended upon for the
major part of the funds, but the farm
ers and property holders throughout
the entire county must be called upon
to swell the total to the desired amount.
There is no project that will furnish a
market for produce and create a de-
mand for farming land as will the col.
lege proposition. If 800, 900 can be
placed here for educational purposes,
simply by our people raising one.fourth
of the sum, the citizens CT this COM
munity should all give something and
the matter will be quickly settled. A
little from everyone is all that is re.
quired. When the committee calls
upon you, do not put them off. but
have your mind made up as to the exact
sum you will pledge toward making
for yourself and descendants an institu-
ton that will afford the higher educa-
tion of all the young people Of the sur
rounding country. It is a costly mat
ter to send pupils TO outside colleges to
finish their education. To know that
your children will be under parent eye
until the age of ~womanhood and man
hood is reached will be something that
is of more value than any monetary
consideration. People of the city and
county, you will build better than you
know if you come forward and pledge
yourself for enough to erect a modern
college with a voluntary endowment of

New York, June 4.-When New

BRIDGER AND BILLINGS CANALS.

Judging from the way the settlers are
coming into the Clarke's Fork district
and making application for lands that
are to be watered under the co-opera-
tive system which is being established
there by the state arid land grant COM
mission, it will be a matter Of but a
few days more before all the available
lands in that section will be taken.
There was some criticism of the project
when it was first proposed, but it has
steadily grown in local favor. and as
soon as the plan was understood the
settlers began to flock to the district,
and already over twenty homestead To-
cations have been made, and more than
that number are in sight. From this
it is evident that there will not be any
trouble or delay experienced by the
commission in securing settlers for any
district that it may in the future have
artificially watered, and this equally
assures the entire practicability Of the
Billings irrigation project, as prompt
settlement of the lands irrigated makes
the bonds issued in payment for tile es-
tablishing of the system the most gilt
edged class of security. The Clarke's
Fork district is being irrigated under a
cooperative plan that wa made posi-
BILE by the fact that United States Sena-
tor Clark extended it financial backing
by agreeing to cash the warrants that
are issued il payment for work done
on the system-an act, by the way,
that will not only add greatly to the
senator's popularity, but will also
prove of great material benefit to the
state at large and to the Clarke's Fork
district and its settlers in partiular.
The plan for irrigating this district is
cooperative. in that the farmers or 10.
caters on the lands that are to be
watered are to be given the work Of
construction, receiving their pay in
warrants that can be used in full an
collation. of their indebtedness to the
commission. These warrants a also
be used in trade at Bridger.
The success of this district would
seem to assure the Billings proposition,
which it is hoped Mr.. Clark will aid in
a financial way, as the ability Of the
commission to readily settle the lands
when they are once watered, makes the
securities offered not only a paying in
vestment, but also one of the surest.
The people of the state in general, and
Of these districts in particular, will not
forget the assistance Mr.: CLARK is
affording both to them and to the state
in asserting his confidence in the future
of Montana's agricultural lands by aid.
ing the state authorities in their irriga-
tion, and it will not detract from his
political popularity nor lessen the
chances Of it's permanence, SO far as
Montana is concerned, at least.

Trials of the Horse.

The show horse of to-day needs to be
possessed of thoroughly strong con-
stitution In order to stand the strain
which is imposed on him, says the Lon
don Live Stock Journal. Hurry and bus
tie are characteristic of the age, and
both men and horses have to be away
from their homes for weeks together,
frequently spending their days in one
show yard and their nights travelling to
another. It is possible for them to get
so used to the life that they suffer no i'll
consequences. but it is not surprising il
they do occasionally lose bloom under
such conditions. The infrequency OF
real breakdowns proves that the high
class horse stock, taken altogether, are
remarkably robust and healthy, or

from their places through colds, chills
and other ailments, which are apt to be
contracted during sudden changes OF
