water they can gather. 1t is coming
easier every year for them, for our rain
are becoming more frequent-the seasons
are changing, we will soon have as niue n
rain as Oregon boasts of and the upland
r%anchers who are short of water will
reap as they are now doing--a rich har-
vest.

valley to range in the vicinity of Lock-
hart. their old range. They were ranged
and fed here this winter on the home
ranch n will leave here in good con-

hard to find.
w. I. Higgins and N. J. Bielenberg Of
this city, left for the Little Rockies in
Northeastern Montana to look after some
developments that are being made under
contract on a gold proposition in that
locality. The property is said to be very
promising, and as James A. Murray Of
Butte is interested We may look for some
news from there upon their return. It's a
gold proposition and will develop a big
mine.

Charles Cowell. the we'll known resi-
dent of Missoula, dealer in real estate,
farms, loans, etc, was in town yester-
day, and just to get his cattle and ranch
in good shape purchased from Kohrs &
B~ielenberg, the stockmen, -four of the
choice short horn bulls raised on their
place. Mr.. Cowell is in the stock bust
ness. and wishing the best stock as a
starter came to Deer Lodge to get it.
Conley & McTagua are adding to and
improving their herds and on Thursday
had delivered to them three fancy short
horn bulls from the young herd of Kohrs
& Bielenberg in this city. They are good
ones or they wouldn't carry the brand
away from the home ranch.
The new pump for the Emery mine, to
supply the recent breakdown, arrived

place and the property will then again

The train service is such that the
morning papers do not reach us until
high noon, and the Inter Mountain gives
and otherwise. our correspondent
hopes that the people of thisc city will get
in and makei it a favorite, which it's SER
vice intends for it to become. The Deer
Lodge columns of the Inter Mountain
did not appear Thursday evening, but it
was through no error of any members Of
the Inter Mountain staff. Uncle Sam is
to blame-that is we will lay the blame
on him for he is able to stand it.
A party given by Miss Anna Bielenberg

music n refreshments We're the order
of the evening.
Judge B. F. Brown, ex-public admins
traitor, and at present justice of the
peace at Garrison, is in the city today.
He is the most surprised man in the
world over the case lately instituted by

McTague inasmuch as he was the adj
ministrator through whom all of the
business was so amicably settled.
