yided method Of taking up out

The purport Of the bill was to allow

authorities to arrange for issuance
OF refund warrants, which might be
issued at any rate Of interest agreed
upon, not TO exceed per cent, in
terest to be paid annually from a
special levy for that purpose. The

with interest added. The introduc
er took the position that this would
relieve the holders of warrants
which, in some cases, were seven or
eight years behind. The opposition
took the position that such bill
would allow q warrant purchaser in
such county, who had bought up
warrants at as low as fifty cents on
the dollar, and then carried them
seven years, to demand of the county.

MURDER OF CAPT. DorsoH.

VhUeh " GAF UUISUN
An Investigaon Of the Affair Reveals
. Deep Laid Plot.
Capt. Dotson, and old Black Hitler
formerly Of Spearhsh, was foully
murdered at Helena, Montana, on
Thursday Of last week. Investiga-
ton seems to indicate that the deed
was committed by an individual who
was discharged from the Montana
penitentiary last December. The
motive for the crime, SO far as can
pc learned, is partly revenge and .
promise Of personal gain. Last
Tuesdays Pionee-Times says: ut
ID believed that his death was the
result Of his being ono Of the Wit
nesses against his son and grandson
for the murder OF Eugene Cullinane.
The officers are looking for arecent-
" discharged convict from the Red
Lodge psnitentiary, who 10 known
to have said before leaving the PEN
itentiary that IS soon as he got out
he would kill old man Dotson and
get his confession 40 to the killing
Of Cullinans. The alleged confession
has bean found. It's purport Is that
Captain Dotson was the murderer
Of Cullinane, and it duplicates Ed
ward Cachslin, . well known resi-.
dent Of Spearfish, and one Of the
commissioners Of Lawrence county.
ut Is believed that tho death Of
Captain Dotson Is part OF . deep laid
plot on the part Of Clinton Dotson
to secure his release from the Mon
tana penitentiary and that the elder
Dotson was shot by the party
discharged from the penitent iary
last December. The warden Of the
penitentiary had learned that this
man declared that he would kill the
old man and leave the old mans
written confession on his body. The
ex-convict is supposed TO have COM
mitted the crime on the promise of
Clinton Dotson that he would divide
$lt, 900 in gold that Clinton Dotson
claimed to have buried somewhere
in Wyoming, and that's . desperate
scheme to secure Clinton Dotson's
pardon. It's believed that the dis
charged convict killed Captain Dot
son by shooting him through the
head, and then fastened Dotson's
rifle to the wall, to5maks 1t appear
that the old man had stood In front
Of the gun and pulled the trigger,
himself, and thus avert suspicion.
There was not q circumstance to
indicate that Cachslin or Captain
Dotson had been ID any way con-
nected with the crime. The evl.l
dence was overwhelming and con-
victiRR against Clinton Dotson, BEN
son and Persinoer. They had been.
| in the vicinity the Cullinane cabin
on the day Of the murder was sup
posed to have been committed.
They had q wagon, and were appar-
emily travelling across the country.

Communication.

Is II any wonder that marriage Is a
failure? II mother tries hard TO raise
her daughter right, what can she ac-
complish in doing her duty when along
comes neighbor woman, that never
knew anything about a mothers love
for her child, and tells a girl sixteen
years old that she is u fool to work for
her mother, and advises her to get
married? There is not mother living,
that has any sense, who would want
her daughter to get married at sixteen,
when she knows the girl is not capable
OF being a wife and mother A wise
mother knows that the burdens OF mar
ried life belong to girls at least twenty
one years old. What are you going to
do with such busy women, who mind
your business better than they do their
own, and who are always keeping up a
neighborly disturbance? I guess we
will have to get down on our knees and
pray God to take her up TO heaven, II
she Is fit to go there. A FRIEND.

AT the regular meeting of the

was decided to open the schools on Mon
day, October 2lst, and the principal was
so instructed and did not receive orders
to the contrary until Monday. 1t was
announced in the town papers last week
and In three or four of the churches
Sunday that school would open Monday
morning, therefore, the teachers and
pupils ran up against complete sur
prise when informed by some OF the
directors Monday morning that the
opening OF school would be postponed
until next Monday, October 28th. The
reason for this sudden change in date
OF opening was because the school house
was not entirely completed and school
would have been conducted this week
