Arnold Brown, who left here some weeks ago for Kansas, writes his folks that he was "touched" by confidence man in Wichita few nights ago. The fellow claimed to be an officer and went through the form of arresting Arnold for passing counterfeit money. Arnold put up S45 for his appearance to answer the charge the next morning, but, he hasn't heard of the case any more, nor of the fellow who got his money.
 Conditions are now ripe for move- ment toward school building for Green Forest. Since the enactment of spec- ial law empowering this district to mortgage it's property to secure the nec- essary building money, there is nothing that stands in the way of making this much-needed improvement. THE TRIB- uNE is pleased to announce that at last a majority of the present board of direc- tors are favorable to taking immediate action in this matter, and we hope to see the proposition put on active footing in few days. There is absolutely noth- ing that could advance the general we'll fare of Green Forest so much as mod ern school building. Let us have it.

THE LIGHT AHEAD.

The Golden Age! The Golden Age!
The mecca Of our dreams!
The theme that lights the prophets
page!
How distant yet it seems!
Across the long and weary years.
We see it through a blur of tears.
We see it like a verdured isle
Across a sunset sea.
The elements upon 1t smile
In peace and harmony,
In keeping with the concord rare
OF those who dwell together there.
It's glories through the olden time
Were painted and were sung.
Twas pictured in a happy cline
When earth and man were young
Its purity and innocence
Were mortals' lost inheritance.
But latterly a promise new
Is brought to us by Hope:
Revealed unto our eager view
The Futures portals ope;
The Golden Age lies yet ahead
And not in epochs past and dead.
IT'S filled with wisdom, love and good,
With largess and increase,
Where all may share in brotherhood
The thousand years of peace
Foretold by one unto whose soul
The Future opened as a scroll.
Along the road of Progress march
The races on and on,
Far up the way a dazzling arch
Cleans golden in the dawn.
Beyond it what may lie in store,
What wonders never dreamed before?
It is Gods promised blessing, set
Before the Coming Race.
Our childrens children's children yet
May see it face to face:
But we, the masters of Today,
Must see the light and lead the way.

to his sisters home, in Brooklyn, after
having spent more than quarter of
century behind the bars as an inmate of
State hospitals Of New York.

THE HERESy TRIAL.

~HE COMMISSION of theologans that decided the

Theological Seminary, charged with heresy has
gone upon record rendering unique decision The
commission examined volumes written by the pro-
decided that the contents of the books
sufficiently orthodox acquit Rev. Gilbert of the charge
heresy, but the commission recommended that the
theology resign his position in the school. The
verdict is not without it's amusing features and the con-
commission respecting the heresy
charges will probably be little consolation the accused
in view of the fact that he has been summary bounced
from his position AS of letting the minister down
easy the verdict of the commission useful
pose appear that commission, in looking
foc place light, had selected safe spot which
to deposit it's load of responsibility.
The decision of the theoogians calls to mind some
what famous which is said to have engaged the at
vigilance committee in frontier days in Mon
halls established, side by side,
in frontier and residents of the town patronized
both places impartay. Finally of the dance hall

music from the neghborng building They supplemented
their verdict however by giving the offending hall
proprietor twentyfour hours to leave and escape

passed Rev. Gbers took this famous
example in rendering their peculiar decision.

IN the HOTEL LOBBiES.

"A Chicago judge will within a few
days be called upon to render an un-
usual decision" said Ralph Wilton OF
Kalamazoo. Mich, at the Butte this
morning. 1T Is case Of two women,
and perhaps 1t will not be interesting
when it comes up. The women are Mile.
De Leon and Mile. Delano. They want
to decide which is the superior dancer
by executing their steps before a judge
and jury.
The young women are very Jealous
of one another, all because w. N. Selig,
who owns the penny in the-slOt ma
chimes. engaged Mile. Delano to dance
before one of his instruments and then
supplanted her with Mile. De Leon.
THE disappointed young person has
brought suit for $1,000 against Selig, and
Mile. De Leon has challenged her to
dance before a jury. This challenge has
been accepted"

rumor to the effect that c. H. Mays,
we'll known some years ago in American
vaudeville. but more recently familiar
to the London stage, is reported dead In
the vicinity of Monte Carlo.
Mays went to England four years
ago and met with some success there
as an entertainer. A year ago his
father. a prominent citizen Of Franklin
county. Ohio. died. leaving the SON a
legacy of $1,000 With this sum Mays
went to Monte Carlo and won $4,000.
For a time the Thespian lived very
vivid existence in the south of France,
frequently visiting the Prince Of Mona
co.'s capital and trying his luck at the
tables. Finally he returned to London,
and recently, by fortunate business
venture, he increased his capital to $15,-

Monte Carlo still held its fascination
for Mays, however, and now he is said
| to lie dead not far from the spot where

BRIGHT IDEAS OF
MONTANA EDITORS
Better Wait q While.

Some Of our state papers are COM
planning because greater numbsr Of
the immigrants who have passed
through the state within the past two
or three months. did not stop within
our borders. 1t is estimated that the
roads leading west from st. Paul have
carried over $1,000 of these homeseekers.
Surprising this this immense number
had decided to stop off in Montana,
what could they do or where could they
settle with any certainty of reaping the
reward they would have reason to ex-
pect?
While there are thousands upon
thousands of acres of vacant govern
ment land in the state, there is very
little left of the kind suitable, in its
present state. for agricultural purposes
and to put 1T into shape would require
a greater outlay than the average home
seeker could stand.
The great majority of these home
seekers are looking for cheap lands.
suitable for agricultural purposes with
the ordinary labor. Such lands they
would find here in very small parcels.
and it would be grave injustice to
them. and to the settlers already located,
to induce them to locate on land where
they would have difficulty in raising
enough to keep body and soul together.
The time will come when through a
system of irrigating canals these vast
acres of land. now fit only for pasture.
will be transformed in rich agricul-
tural land. capable of raising immense
quantities Of profitable products. When
that time comes there will be very little
difficulty in securing settlers. We Will
then have something to offer them and
will feel that if they are Industrious
and possessed of the requisite energy.
both they and the state will be bene-
fitted. but for the present it. is better
that the crowd pass through Montana.

Go Slow!

Bitter feeling between the sheepmen
ard cattlemen of the valley Is cropping
out The sheepmen with their multiply
ing focks have divided up the range
among themselves and have invaded
districts in the upper valley that were
never before occupied by them. This
has excited the ire Of the ranchmen
and they are protesting most vigorously.
In one instance, it is reported, party
of ranchmen waited upon sheepman
and politely but firmly informed him
that his sheep must leave that district.
They left. 1t is alleged that in another
instance cayene pepper was profusely
sprinkled over the newly invaded range.
The sheep, after a few shifts, became
uneasy and almost inclined to stampede.
The herders and dogs were kept very
busy night and day trying to curb the
restlessness of the flock.
1t is stated that some of the sheep
men have loudly proclaimed that they
propose to retaliate-to protect their
rights by an appeal to the death-dea!-
ing Winchester. Such a proceeding
would be lamentably ill-advtsed. illogi-
cal and indiscreet. It would also be
foolhardy undertaking on the part oil

twenty sheepmen in the valley, while
nearly every one of the 1900 ranchers
