TAYLOR seems to haye complete
ly lost his head of late, and to have
believed that he could capture the
executive office by violence. His
summOning to Frankfort an army
of mountaineers with shOtguns and
rifles, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat, proved that he intended
to resort to bloodshed. The assas-
sination of Goebcl was the natural
result of bringing so many dcspcr-
ate and dangerous men into the
town. That assassination lost him
more supporters in the north. and
showed him in his true light before
the country.

THE delay in the publication OF
the Forticth Florida Reports called
forth rather severe criticism i'm
the columns of Il certain Jackson
willie daily a few days ago, which
was quite apropos. We think the
criticism has hurried up matters
some for in another of our state ex-
changes we note that the attorney
general has just completed the in
dex To this work and sent it with
the unbound forms back To the
publishing house in jacksonville,
so the legal talent of this state may
soon expect the reports. These re-
ports are needed i'm the courts OF
Florida almost daily. for cases are
being decided all the while which
may require revision for the lack
of them.

Two Denver editors permitted
themselves to be shot by lawyer
the other day. The journalistic
profession seems to be degenerating
out Denver way. Time was when
no two lawyers could have got
one editor anywhere in Colorado,
but that was in the Olden golden
age, when the pastepOt, the pencil
and the pistol went hand in hand,
as it were, in the wild and wOOlly

THE Plant System and the F. c. IL

pay to all holding receipts, the one
cent per mile rebate for distance
travelled, also to grant five days
limited round trip tickets at three
cents per mile each way, and to
issue the old time one thousand
miles mileage books, the question
naturally arises, why can't they go

had 200 head or thereabouts ofcalves
which he had not given in. Mr..
Fowler addressed Mr.. Westfall con-
corning this and asked him II 1t was
true that he had 200 head of cattle in
Fergus county Oh the first OF March.
Mr.. Westfall, under date of May
10th. replied that he had wintered 200
head Of calves at his ranch which he
had brought from Minnesota the fall
before, but had in the spring sent
them to Bear Paw range where
the rest OF his cattle ranged and were
assessed and where he said he paid
taxes on more cattle than he had.
He however, artfully lodged the
question as to whether these cattle
were In Fergus county the first Mon
day OF March.
His answer not being satisfactory,
Assessor Fowler addressed him again
under date of May 2lst. reiterating
inquiry and adding that II Mr.. West
fall did not pay taxes on thecattle in
this county, he 1.-THE assessor) would
be compelled by law to notify the
Choteau county assessor and added:
81 try to do right as far as / can and
II you know of anyone who has been
assessed too low or that has not
been assessed and will let me know,
l will do all l can to get him on the
list"
At the same time Mr.. Fowler ad-
dressed the assessor OF Choteau coun-
ty concerning the number OF cattle
for which Mr.. Westfall was assessed
In that county. The ChOteau county
assessor replied that Mr.. Westfall
had been assessed for $50 head In 1899
and for only 300 head this year. That
report not only looked as II Mr..
Westfall was not being assessed for
more than he had, but that he was
lodging considerably In that coun-
W eilucE tHuI VI ut was scliluS a
great many head.
Under date OF May 24th, Mr.. West
fall acknowledged the corn and said
the 200 head OF cattle were In Fergus
county the first Monday of March.
And those 200 head were added to
his list and he will pay taxes thereon
this year.
Mr.. Fowler had done his whole
duty and he had persistently inquired
and investigated until he forced Mr..
Westfall to plead guilty to tax dodg.
ing. At the same time Mr.. Fowler
had invited Mr.. Westfall to furnish
him information concerning anyone
else who might be seeking to evade
the law.
These are the facts concerning two
men whom the Democrats desire to
place In control Of Fergus county
affairs for the next four years.
The facts speak for themselves.

expense. in closing a contract with
"Lynwood," the celebrated female con-
tortionist. who is now, and for the past
week has been, appearing nightly before
good-sized audiences in a marvellous
performance which stamps her as an
artist in her profession whom it is well
worth while TO go and see. Her acting
is not of the ordinary kind so common
ON the modern stage, but embraces
something entirely new which entities
her to be placed in a class by herself as
a woman Of extraordinary physical en-
dowments. She executes the most diff
cult feats Of bending with apparent
cas- and surprising agility, greatly TO
the establishment of her audience, and
performs n or two special tricks of
which no other female contortionist is
capable. Lynwood has given exhibit
tions in all parts Of the United States
and has been the recipient of compli-
mentary press notices wherever she has
appeared, besides having in her possess
sion medals bestowed upon her by vari-
Gus societies as a mark of appreciation
in which her talent is held by her ad.
mirers.

Stephen j. Harding, Of FIT. Magin-
mis- and Perry Westfall. Of Stanford,
are Democratic nominees in Fergus
county for county commissioners.
Both Of these men are what are pop-
ularly known as tax-dodgers.
Do the electors of Fergus county
want to lect a majority board COM
posed of such men?
This is not a campaign canard nor
is the proof questionable. 1t is con-
tanned in the records of the county
commissioners, county clerk and as
sesor of this county.
Let us look at the Harding case
first.
He IL the only man in Fergus coun.
ty who was ever required to pay the
1000 per cent penalty prescribed by
the revenue law for attempts tU
dodge taxation.
1t was in 1892. Henry Simcns, the
deputy for l.. w. Eldridge, assessor,
reported to the board OF county com
missioners, that he believed Mr.
Harding had not given In a correct
assessment OF his cattle. Upon the
report then presented the following
order was made which appears Oh
record in the commissioner journal
under date OF July 20, 1892:
Assessment OF s. j. Harding rails
ed $500 ON one jack. $500 on one
jennet, also la head of stock cattle
$1,7l0."
Mr.. Harding protesting this raise
and offering to make oath to his as
sessment, Deputy Assessor Simons
was instructed to round up the cat
tie and Oscar Stephens, A. W. Stod
dard and Il. NJ. Shaw were called tC
assist and later to testify. Mr.. Stod
dard was then a neighbor Of Mr.
Harding and Messrs. Stephens ant
Shaw were familiar with his stock.
The cattle were rounded up-al
being right there at homeland OF
August 4th of the same year thu
board took action. The witnesses
were heard OH the Sth OF the sam
month.
In the commissioners journal, I'm
der date of August 4. 1892, appear
the folio wing:
'The increase in the assessment O
s. j. Harding OF III head of cattle n
Sl5 per head, $l,7lO, reduced, to 4
head of cattle at $l5 per head, S73j
and board instructed clerk to ente
an assessment of $3.50 (ten time
the amount) against 5. j. Hardin,
in compliance with requirement q
Section 80 of revenue law"
Mr.. Harding's previous assessmen
was $3.50, to which was added tn
$S,150 above noted and he paid take
on the total of Sl1, 740.
The case had been tried and proven
In the Ease OF Perry Westfall.

VIII Receive Election Returns.

Austin w. War;, the secretary of the
Lewistown Telephone company is en-
~deavoring TO put into effect a plan to
receive election returns in Lewistown
from the Western Union Telegraph
company at Great Falls on the night of
the 9th of November and the morning
of the 9TH, the bulletins to include
news of both the national and state
election. The service this year will
come somewhat higher than it was four
years ago, but the increased cost would
be amply repaid by the pleasure and
satisfaction oi receiving the latest cleo
ton news hot from the wires. Similar
arrangements may also be made to
supply the news to Gilt Edge, Garneill
and other points having telephone con-
nections with the Lewistown Office, so
that the voters of Fergus county will
not long be kept in suspense in regard
TO the result of the election.
