Scab In Choteau County.

Scab has broken out again in Cho-
teau county and a large number OF
sheep in the vicinity of Chinook have
already become effected, and the dis

No Reflections Intended.

We are informed by Judge Cheadle
that a report of court proceedings
which was given in the ARGUS near
the close of the late jury term did an
injustice to VIM. T. Mcfarland, jus.
tice of the peace for Big Spring town.
ship.
In reference to the ease of the state
vs.. Shadwell, the court said that, In
its opinion the said cas- should have
been laid in third degree assault and
tried in justice court, wherein a con.
viction might probably have been
had. and was. at the least, deserved.
Judge Cheadle assures us that no
reflection was made or intended upon
Justice Mcfarland, who had simply
TO determine whatever probable cause
existed that a crime had been com.
mitted, as set forth In the complaint
filed In his court. II vas simply
shown that such cause did exist, and
therefore there is 10 reason to criti
else the action of the justice In bind
ing Shadwell over to the district
court.
We make the correction cheerfully
as Mr.. Mcfarland has been a mosI
efficient justice. None Of his decis
ions have ever been overthrown In
the district court. and his entire con
duct as a public officer has been sat
isfactory to the public and creditabl,
to himself.
