The Best Railroad Subsidy.

The prospects of 10000, 900
bushels of wheat to ship from the
Lewiston valley is meat for good
argument in favor of railroad ex.
tension. This vast tonnage can
not be hauled by present facilities
in season to meet demands of
trade. The boats with the obstacle
of shallow water and the railroads
with the up hill pull cannot haul
this crop within the next year. A
down grade railroad is now an
emergency demand of commerce.
Traffic will be blocked from the
time the crop of 1900 begins to
move. The present facilities are
fully employed under normal con-
ditions. The shipments of this
year have been compelled to await
the convenience of the transporta.
ton companies often at loss. The
demand will be increased 100 per
cent. at least, by the splendid yield
of wheat and fax of the Lewiston
valley this year. Thus the demand
for an extension of traffic lines is
very pressing. The upper Clear
water mining camps are calling
for relief. The Buffalo Hump
camp promises Immediately as
much traffic as this whole district
furnished last year.
The Snake river district is
dormant for the need at transporta-
ton. This demand is bringing re-
Spouse already. The extension of
the Idaho Northern is the first in
dication of the revival of railroad
building in this pent up district.
The Northern Pacific tapped the
Lewiston valley two years ago.
The relief of improved trans
portation from a railroad to the
very order of the rich empire in
creased trade 100 per cent, and this
road has not even tapped the
wealth producing areas. The grain
fields of the plateaus even have
not been approached. The mining
camps are still remote, but the
trade of the district responded as if
touched by magic wand when
the first railroad penetrated the
border of the Lewiston wealth pro-
ducing district. The farms are not
relieved and the mines are not
made productive by the present
facilities. The present visible re-
Spouse is only a condition of slim
ulation of a sympathetic nature.
When the farming belt has really
been.tapped and the mines can ship
their products the real boom will
come to the Lewiston valley. The
P. & I. N. road is coming this
way and the road down Snake
river is inspired with life by the
growing faith in the wonderful
wealth of this encountered region.
The hemmed in mining camps and
farming region are soon to be tap
ped. The effect will be like the
bursting of adam that has held BAG k
the accumulated force for a number
of years. This rush is coming
The traffic of the present harvest
is but sign of what is sure to
come. 1t is call for relief, how
ever which cannot be disregarded.
We need no other argument to pro-
mote railroad construction.

ed down out of the hills at daybreak
the morning before. and, though they
had lost score OF men. the dugout
had been carried by assault and its
defenders butehered. we waited here
half an hour to give the poor corpses
burial and then pushed on toward
White Horse. It was not until we got
within two miles of the station that
our fears were relieved. Then we
heard the reports of rifles and knew
that the place was still holding out.
The station was situated about mid
way of a long. bare hill To the west
of It was coulee, or dry rayine, with
banks 20 feet high. We had with us a
couple of scouts who knew avery rod
of the overland trail, and when within
a mile of the station these. men were
sent forward to spy out the situation.
They returned after awhile to report
that Spotted Horse and about $50 OF
his dog soldiers as the Cheyennes
were called, were laying siege to the
station and had evidently occupied the
ground for two or three days. The
ground around the dugout was so open
that the Indians dared not crush" the
place, nor was there any show to use
n keg of powder without reckless ex-
posUre. With their allies holding the
trail to the east, the Cheyennes had en-
tered upon siege In hopes to starve
the employees out. Their war ponies
and most of the band were lying up in
the dry ravine for the night This ra-
vine had no opening to the south and
was therefore a cul de sac

got the order to charge each man be-
gan shooting When a carbine was
empty, 1t was thrown away and re-
yolver used in its place. When the re
yolyer was empty, 1t was cast aside for
the saber. Extended from bank to
bank, we swept up the ravine, and we
had nothing to do but kill. Taken by
surprise, the Cheyennes thought only
of getting away. We had scarcely got
to work when the eight men who had
been cOoped up in the dugout sallied
out to take a hand in, and it was made
the saddest sunrise the Cheyenne tribe
had ever seen. Not a pony could es-
cape out of that trap. Numbers of the
warriors scrambled up the banks and
got safely away. but nearly every one
left his weapons behind The fight did
not last above 80 minutes, and our loss
was only three men wounded.
Down in that ravlne we harvested IS
dead Indians. and on the banks above
the stage men counted up % more. We
got upward of hundred rifles, about
80 pistols, 130 ponies and a wagon load

Louis Goldstein was granted a decree
~ divorce from Minnie Goldsteln py
Judge Clancy today. The testimony IN
tine case was rather sensational. me
a represented by E.. .. jack
SON. who also acted as a witness ana
caused considerable amusement by mold
ing up his lief hand while being sworn.
Goldstein stated to the court that the
defendant and himself had been united IN
marriage last September, but since then
she had been untrue to him.
"How did you treat herr" asked his at
torney. :,
II treated that woman just a queen"
was the reply.
He also stated that she was engaged In
dancing and carousing al the Montana
house in West Galena street.
Joseph Walker testified that one day
this month he had gone to her room and
she told him her lover had skipped the
coop."
Mr.. Jackson told the court that prior to
the institution of h suit he had paid

MURPHY MEETINGS ENDED.

The Francis Murphy meetings thai
have been going on in the Auditorium
for two weeks were concluded last
night when MI. Murphy lectured to a
large audience for nearly an hour on
his experiences in the late war with
Spain. II e said he was not a politician,
but paid a fine tribute to President Nc
Kinley. He said great, good and
strength had come out of the war, and
that the world now recognized us as one
among the great nations of the earth
and urged all to live sober and honest
lives. We would become the greatest
nation on earth. He had an appreciative
audience, and many were deeply af-
fected when they sung, ''God be with
you till WE meet again"
Many who nave gone deep into tor
ment of drink have promised to reform.
Upwards of 400 have signed his pledge
and put on the blue ribbon. Mr.. Murphy
expects to remain with us a few days
and rest, after which he expects to con-
duct meetings at Anaconda and possibly
Mfssoula, Stevensville and Bozeman.
It is hoped he nay be able to speak
to the people at Columbia Gardens to-
morrow.
