What Mr.. Phelps Says.

Geo. H. Phelps: Regarding state
ments recently appearing in the press as
to why I am in Bismarck, I wish to say
I came to attend the memorial services
Of the late Governor Briggs. 1 was not
sent for to "straighten any tangles" or
to instruct" any one as to his duties. At
the request of Governor Fanchera I am
rendering him a little professional as
%sistance, in looking after legal questions
arising in connection with the bills now
coming. before him. The general office
work of his department is, in, perfect
shape 90 far as ]. have observed. | con
slider Private Secretary Poole one Of the,
best office men in my acquaintance. AS
an evidence Of this I simply wish to say
that when a man vas needed to attend
to the details of the mobilizing the state
troops last spring I asked General
Miller to appoint him and the public
knows he did his work well.

The Wolf Bounty Provided.

The disputed wolf bounty matter was
finally settled by the legislature by al
lowing a state bounty of So on ali
wolves, and increasing the tax levy to
One-ffth from one-tenth Of IL min.
There are some $4,000 of wolf bounty
certificates registered for payment.
n 1t Is estimated, this levy will take
care of the current bounties and pay
SOME Of the deficiencies. The major
1ty of the outstanding certificates are
held by spectators and it will he some
years before all OF. them are paid. The
present law provides for the levying of
a bounty tax for the years 1899 and
800 only, but the next legislature will
have either to continue tile bounty or
repudfate many thousands of ccrtif-
Gates. and this is hardly likely.

there was reason 9,r that. Lawrence
had never succeeded III reaching Cramer.
Sad, wearied and depressed, Major
Brooks seated himself on a saddle
blanket to take counsel with his off,
GERS, now reduced to three-Barclay,
Winn and the doctor. He missed Null
lane, stanch old fighter that he was, for
Mullane knew most Of the country
thoroughly and had been posted for
months at the Rio San Saba, now only
some 20 miles to the east. He sorely
missed Lawrence, for on him he had
often leaned. He was beginning to take
vast comfort in Barclay, to be sure, but
now Barclay, Winn, the doctor, men
and horses, the entire command, in
fact, had come to Il standstill. There
was no use in going farther east. There
the country was comparatively open
and rolling, and'the gang would hardly
dare attack 40 troopers on the wide
prairie. Besides, the nearest water in
that direction was 30 miles away, the
little rivulet rising in the heart of the
hills was ten miles behind them, and
already horses were thirsting and men
emptying their canteens. Blankly the
major stared up into Barclays drawn
and almost haggard face. "Can YOU
think of anything we ought to do?' he
asked, and in asking Brooks was a far
better soldier than the man who, having
exhausted his own resources, thought it
mira dig. to invite suggestions from his
juniors

nodded, with misery in the emphasis Of
his tone. II remember having heard of

passed among the wearied groups
where, squatting or lying, the men had
thrown themselves upon the ground,

stocky little Irish sergeant came trudg.

touched the visor of his worn old cap.
"Can you guide us by the shortest

major.

need to leave any one to say which way
they'd gone. The trail showed all that.
Silently they headed for the broad val
ley OF the Bravo, miles away to the in
visible west. Once across little rise in
the falda Brooks struck the slow trot
he had learned long years before from
the beloved major Of his old regiment
and doggedly the column took it up
and followed. Not a mile had they
gone when the sun came peering up
over the heights far in their wake; for
few minutes the dew flashed and
sparkled on the turf before it died be-
meath that fiery breath, and still no
man spoke. Sound sleep by night, a
cold plunge at dawn and the hot tin of
soldier coffee send the morning tongues

takes forced all night march, follow
