BACK FROM ALASKA.

DIR. J.. w. Reed, a vel! known old time
resident of Butte, returned a few days
6 from Dawson City, Alaska, where he
spent the past two years. The doctor
has returned to Butte for all time to
come, a fact that give his his many
friends in this city pleasure. He says
that while many fairy stories are told
concerning Dawso City and Alaska,
there are many good mines there, but the
producers are not as plentiful as is gen.
orally supposed. Mines in Alaska, like
mines in Montana, are oun after pa
tient prospecting.
The doctor states that Dawson City
has a population of about 10000 people,
and will undoubtedly be the permanent
center of that section of Alaska. 1t is as
well built up as could be expected. The
unemployed run into the thousand, and
there are man, people in Dawson who
would De glad to return to the States, but
have not the mean to 10 so.
The doctor came out by the overland
route, a trip that can now be made with
comparative ease. He was kept quite
busy today greeting old friends and ac-
quaintances, n expressed himself as
being much pleased to be at home again
in Butte.

LAWYER LANE ARRESTED.

A complaint charging Freeman A. Lane
with having attempted to extort money
from several liquor dealers in this city
was issued from the county attorneys
office last evening n filed in Justice
Harrington's court. Prior to the birth Of
the complaint Mr.. Lane had been arrest
ed by Detectives Murphy and Ray and
taken to the city Jail. I'M has been in
the city several days, and as, it is al

purporting to be imported goods, which
are not genuine and zeal false labels. AS

MIDNIGHT MELEE

In a melee which occurred near the
East Butte saloon last night, about II
o'clock, Lewis Huff was stabbed in the
side by Frank Bajuk. Huff's wound is
not of a serious nature and his condition
is very much better today than it was
last night. The attending physicians say
that the puncture is a slight one, no vital
organ having been penetrated. Bajuk,
who is a relative of ex-Police Officer J..
NJ. Rezek, is in the county Jail. charged
with assault in the second degree.
Some time ago Frank Huff, a brother
of the man who was stabbed last night,
bought some real estate from Rezek, pay
ing for it in installments. He had paid
in about $3.50, and a balance of $40 was
yet due when the property was attached
by some one whom Huff was indebted to.
Huff held HeZek responsible for the at
tachment. Last night, between II and u
o'clock. Bojuk, John Parko and Rezek
left Columbia Gardens to come to the
city. They stopped at the East Butte
saloon and there met Frank Huff and
his brother Lewis. Bajuk said something
to Lewis Huff and Huff knocked him
Town. Parko made a protest and was
promptly knocked down by Frank Huff.
Then ollowed a lively four-cornered
fight, in which the Huff brothers seem
to have had the advantage. Finally
Bajuk, concluding that ne had had
enough, ran away into the darkness.
Lewis Huff followed him and when he
caught him Bajuk stabbed him. Huff
was taken to his home and a physician
sent for. Bajuk was arrested about 5
o'clock this morning by a police officer.
and later, was taken to the county jail.

have called their attention to the viola
ton, and it is claimed offered to compro-
mise the infraction for a money consid-
GRAFTON. This mad the liquor dealers
suspicious, and they called the two
sleuths and had him arrested. After be-
ing taken to the city Jail c. p. Connolly.
n prosecuting attorney for the state,
was called into the case. and the result
was a complaint against Lane. 1t charged
him with attempting to extort money
from John ~StroInberg. Lane was ar
raigned before Justice Harrington. and
his bond fixed at $500. He will be given
a hearing next Wednesday,. and in the
meantime will enjoy his liberty on the
bond. In discussing his position with
Mr.. Connolly the alleged offender said he
had been authorized to make cOmpro-
misses with the liquor men. as it was
neither the intent nor policy of the asso-
citation to prosecute when it could be
avoided. What the association desired
to do was stop the illegal traffic and ex-
act a bond from the accused requiring
them to fulfill the terms of a promise to
discontinue the sale.
! Lane is a bright man and a lawyer of
ability. His home is in st. Paul. Twen-
ty-five years ago he came to Montana to
handle a case and was arrested and fined
500 for practicing without a license. He
paid the fine in a lower court and in a
higher tribunal called the attention of
Judge Coburn to it. with the result that
the fine was RENTED.
He told Mr.. Connolly of his Minnesota
connections, and referred him to Cover
nor Lund of that state for a confirmation
of his standing there. He said he would
telegraph the governor and kept his
word. In the message he said nothing
about his difficulty here. Today MI. Con-
molly received the following message
from Governor Lund: -.

Little can be said in directing one to
select professional school. All that
suggests itself Is to get the best, slight
differences in expense not considered.
Above all things. do not hurry matters.
Lawyers, doctors and preachers are no
longer made in one or two years. Inc
process is now treated seriously ana
when once done is we'll done. AS gen
eral proposition in considering post
graduate education there is no choice
in the comparative merits OF eastern
and western schools so far as the quail
ity of instruction is concerned, but Tor
westerners the arguments are In favor
of eastern schools and on the other
hand for the easterner the western
school should appeal to him just as
strongly. While one is pursuing pro-
fessional course the change in environ
ment secured by a change in location
tends to broaden one. to educate him
along lines Of which he never dreamed
before. In the professional school as in
all others, beware of humbugs.
The selection of school is always g
momentous event in every family. but
is often made more of mountain than
is necessary. With a little care in gain

OF exercising that care should never be

COL. MARTIN RESIGNS.

AS has been expected for some time,
it would occur, the resignation of Col.
L. NJ. Martin, of Dies Moines, as general
manager of the Iowa Central railroad
was made public today. 1t is to take
effect Sept. /. No reasons for the action
are given but it has been known for
months that conflicting interests Were
at work within the board of directors
and it is presumed that Col. Martin has
found it impossible to please all the
various factions with his conduct of the
road.
Col. Martin, as a railroad manager,
has achieved a marked success during
the few years since May 1894 when he
took charge of the Central. Personally
he is fine fellow, man of unusual
business, ability. thoroughly fair and
just in all his dealings. He deserves q
large share of the credit for the many
Improvements that have come to the
Central during the last few years ane

SECRETARY ROOTS POLICY


We have now been favored with a
semi fetal, declaration from Secretary
Root of the war department to the
effect that "the policy of the war de-
ment is to furnish General Otis with all
the troops and supplies that he can use
and which are necessary to wind up the
insurrection in the Philippines in the
shortest possible time This means a
large force and a more vigorous pros
ecution of the war and occupation of
all important posts after their capture.
1t is policy that will encourage every
patriotic supporter of the government.
1t means, too. a near approach to peace
for the suffering Inhabitants of Luzon,
who are hoping and praying for a ces-
sation of hostilities Under the circum-
stances it is the only policy TO pursue,
and it is the only one consistently fol-
lowed that will benefit the Philippines
in the largest measure, as Well as our
own nation.
washington advices are to the effect
that Secretary Root has infused new
life into the war department, and that
the slip-shod fashion of doing things
which characterized the Alger regime is
at an end.
