the plum hunters were kept away from

their largest returns. Under the Lacey
bull, passed at the last session OF ccu-

the bodies of $500 birds from a HAIRY

him. The good effect OF this action
was felt at once. All the wholesale

their stock inspected. and offered 10

many ladies present at the meeting OF
the union, not one wore a hat trimmed

suits will not be long in making them
selves felt in the attention which. is
bound to be attracted to the city and
the inducements it holds out to others
to come here and make their homes
with us. The same application also
holds good as to the administration of
the county's business affairs. Let it
be known that a county exists where
public improvements are not neglect
ed, where it's people + progressive
and thrifty and due regard is given by
it's officials to all the details that enter
into the comfort and welfare of the
public and all these happy conditions
are made possible under a system OF
taxation that has for it's object reduc-
lions in the levies necessary for the
creation of the various funds requir-
ed to meet obligations and there
will be no lack of those who desire
to become members of that commun-
ity. While almost every other county
in the state has advanced it's levies,
or at best kept them at figures prev
iously fixed, Yellowstone county en-
tiers upon an era of reduction and
lessening of the burden borne by those
who must foot the bills.

Judge Harvey has been interviewed
by a Chicago reporter and denies the
charges made against him in the aft
dayits filed with the clerk of the court
at Butte. He furthermore alleges that
the Amalgamated company, through
it's agents, offered him various and
sundry brides to decide the case
against the Montana Ore Purchasing
company. He says they wanted to
build him a house, and when he de-
clined the offer they changed the char
acter of the temptation by substituting
cold cash, $250,O00 was the amount he
said he had been offered, and advised
him to accept and remove to New
York and lead a life of ease and lux
ury. Even this fortune, he declares,
did not tempt him and he laughed the
tempters to scorn. The Judge further.

Boston, Aug. 13-There was a steady

with general conditions not material

posed to buy freely and with machin-
cry well employed this makes a lib
eral business. The market is in good
shape, taken as a whole, with condi-
tions firm. The best feature is that
the wool taken goes Immediately into
use. The goods market is yet the con-
trolling factor of the situation and to
the cheerful position of the latter is
due the strength of the wool outlook.
The sales made run largely to terri
tory grades. Choice fine woods are
costing 44@46 cents, with generally
fine lots of territory at 44@46. Choice
staple goods are quotable at 46@49.

ONLY A FoRERUNNER.

Dawson County Review: Last week
the whistle Of the first wooden mill in
Montana was heard at Big Timber
and it's echoes will roll and redouble
in the future. for the mill is but a
~forerunner of other. AS the regions of
the Appalachian mountains are the
natural locations for the great iron
and steel manufactures because of
abundance of mineral and fuel, so is
Montana adopted to the manufacture
of woolens from that commodity which
is one of her chief productions. Each
days events are portents of the ones
to follow. The manufacture of cotton
goods is rapidly diverging from the
New England states to the center of
production-the south. Why, then,
should it not be equally so with the
manufacture of woolens? The ship
ping of wool in it's raw state to the
east results in a great loss in freight,
is a waste of energy and very unsatis-
factory. Our state mas every adapIa-
bility for manufacturing; nature has
been almost prodigal. in her bestowals
upon us. There is no lack of fuel, and
if there were, innumerable rivers rush.
ing downward from where the earth
and sky blend as one, would furnish
the power as we'll as the cleansing
properties. In this age of progress
events occur with such lightning like
rapidity as to seem almost miraculous
and let the tide once set this way il
will be but a short time ere the smoke
from many mills and factories ascends
heavenward and the whirr of the spin
die and shuttle is heard.

"The tomb is massive and as simple
in it's greatness as was the character

erected. You enter some thirty feet

in a great room rooted by the dome it,

other things seen in this crypt. On
one are the words, Meade post No. l,
Philadelphia On the other is the
word, China One is an offering from
those who loved Grant at home; the
other from those who loved him
abroad.

all it's surroundings kept in excellent
shape. Thousands Of visitors to New

TALK.

While the talk of certain senators
who happen to be stopping over at
Washington concerning the likelihood
of a congressional investigation into
the Sampson-Schley controversy, in
case of failure of the court of inquiry
to vindicate Schley, may be interesting
and the source of much comfort and
pleasure to the adherents of the man
who sank the Spanish fleet off Santi-
ago. yet it. is premature. With the
exception of one member, the court
summoned to conduct the inquiry is
composed of men without known pre-
judice or bias and the presumption is
that the inquiry will be conducted
along lines of the utmost fairness and
honesty. Until the court has returned
it's verdict and the public has been
made acquainted therwith and the rea-
sons for the findings all such talk as
is credited to the senators in question
should cease. Talk of that kind and
coming from the source indicated may
strike some people as an attempt to
influence the courts actions by intim-
idation. Whatever the result, it should
not be said that it was brought about
through unfair means and that a favor
able verdict, should such be returned,
was practically forced from the court.
1t is time enough to talk about con
g%ressional Investigations when the
court shall have adjourned and return
ed it's findings. After that event, it
any of the parties at interest believe
themselves to have been unfairly and
uniustly treated there is ample time
for an appeal to congress for an in
vestigation by that body.
The sympathy of a large majority
of the American people is with Schley
and that majority may be depended
upon to see that it's idol does not suf-
fer and that his enemies may not be
permitted to triumph over him through
the application of mere t~echnicalities.
Neither does it desire that undue in
huence shall be brought to bear in
his behalf, confident that he will
emerge from the ordeal with flying
colors.

U FOR

The Rocky Mountain News, pub
lished at Denver, advances the theory
that irrigation would to a certain ex
tent prevent drought, particularly in
the states bordering on the arid reg
ions. 1t says:
."The hot winds which sweep over
the corn belt of Kansas, Nebraska and
Iowa during the summer months come
mainly from the semi-ard plains west
and southwest of the corn belt. 1t
is of interest to those communities
to know that. the introduction of more
extensive irrigation works by the stor-
age of mountain waters would have
an important effect in reducing the
heat and continuity Of those winds.
Governmental assistance in the stor-
age of storm and waste waters in the
spring will enable the west to en-
large it's cultivated + so much that
the hot winds will be no longer a
menace to the a~grculturists of the
Missouri valley. If for no other rea-
son those communities should be
earnest advocates of the irrigation
plans which are forcing themselves
on the attention of the country.
"There is no more fertile soil in
the world than that of the deserts of
the west, once it is adequately sup.
piled with water.
"There are millions of acres of this
land in every arid state"

probably will still be under the neces-
sity of framing a radical platform. 1t
cannot make a conservative deliver
anoe, for that would be an imitation Of
the republican creed and the people do
not like limitations in politics. The
democracy will be forced to combat
the republican party on many lines
and this necessity will compel it to put
forward many follies and a%bsurdities,
which will be as bad as Organism, and
ONE of them probably will have to
be taken from the Bryan platforms.
Moreover, Bryan himself is going to
stay in politics, as he has frequently
informed the country, and he still has
