Public Hitching Posts.

Hamilton, Sept. 2.-Some weeks ago
the Republican advocated the estab-
lishment of a public hitching post.
stating at the time the ground, lumber
and other necessaries would be do
mated by the different branches of the
stock farm and A. c. NJ. Co. 1t is with
pleasure that the fact is noted that the
suggestion has been acted upon, and
the hitching sheds are now nearly COM
pleted, being located on vacant prop
erty on North Second street, a little
north of McMurry, Cooper & Grill S
store. The work is being done by the
city, under the direction of Alderman
Peterson, the lumber being supplied as
before mentioned and the city paying
for the labor and nails. There are two
sheds, one ITO and the other 80 feet in
length both being double to accom-
MEDIATE teams on either side and both
being covered over They are divided
into stalls 9x12 feet in size, and Will be
a great accommodation and convent
ence to farmers and others driving into
town. 1t is also proposed to place wa
tering troughs convenient, so that ami
mails will be refreshed in the heated
term while waiting the pleasure of their
owners The institution of this enter
prise will be greatly appreciated. The
various hitching posts in other parts OF
the city will be removed as soon as the
new sheds are ready for use.

Railroad RumOrs.

Hamilton, Sept Wv. A. Strange
and w B. Mclaughlin returned this
week from a trip of several weeks in
the Idaho and Washington country in
which the new line of railroad is being
built. They saw lots of good, rolling
land, but no water to irrigate it. Mr..
Strange says that the country there Is
not as good as the Bitter Root, and that
he is perfectly satisfied with where he
is living He also states that the work
of grading on the new railroad is being
rapidly pushed and that there are miles
and miles of men and teams strung out
along the route, which has passed
Stewart, and from the direction in
which the surveys seem to be running
he is pretty well satisfied that the road
is headed for the Bitter Root valley
eventually. and will come over Lost
Horse or Gird's creek, down to Hamil-
ton and on to Butte and Anaconda,
making direct route from the latter
cities to the coast He also says that
in spite of the newspaper talk that all
differences between competing railroad
lines have been settled, the people in
the country they visited on the trip
refuse to believe 1t. In any event, it
seems certain, from all indications
that Hamilton and this section will
have another road before 1900 has dis
appeared in the past.

Missoula. Sept ID. j. Chadwick,

August in the Bitter Root valley has
been an unusually cold and stormy
month Almost every night snow fell
on the highest peaks of the Bitter Root

prosperous condition, that the firm Of

CrOp Estimates,

Missoula. Sept. while the fruit
crop this year will be very light when
compared with the yields of the past
few years, the production of hay and
grain in Western Montana will prob
ably be little above the average yield
this season. The vegetable crop too, is
said to be very large and of fine quail
ity. Market gardeners have done well
on early vegetables and the late crop
is now in splendid condition. A visit
TO any of the large gardens around Mis-
soula is well worth the time of any
body. 1t will be a revelation to many
The acreage that has been cultivated
for vegetables this year is in excess OF
that of preceding years and the crops
have not suffered from the unfortunate
weather. Charles Coleman has show
of vegetables that will pay any one for
the trouble of a trip down to his
ranch.

WHILE RIVAL ARMIES LOOKED ON.
Savage Duel With Knives Between Two
Natives of Honduras.

From Donahoe's Magazine.
We were invited to witness a duel be-
tween two natives, one selected from
each army. Hostilities were entirely
suspended for the time being and both
commanders drew up their forces in
battle array to witness the conflict.
With few exceptions, the soldiers We're
a motley crowd, armed with all fash
ions of weapons. not more than 500 on
each side carrying modern firearms. A
few of the leaders We're arrayed in gor-
geous trappings, reminding one of the
splendor of European commanders,
without the power or wealth which
sustained these. The scene recalled the
days of chivalry, though without its
glamor when some fearless knight met
the mightiest champion of the enemy
in the open plain, and the mutual ma
tired of the contending forces was for
the while forgotten in admiration of
unfiinching valor.
At the sound of the trumpet two
stalwart natives, naked to the waist,
rushed into the open space between
