FIGURES THAT TALK.

The figures published in yesterdays
Gazette are more convincing argument
calculated to show the wonderful and
continuous growth of Yellowstone
county than all the words that could
be crowded into a newspaper. What
is more, they were authentic, not the
mere guess of somebody claiming to
know. They form a part of the official
records of the county and as such may
be accepted as being correct. While
other counties may return a decrease
of assessed valuation, as some un-
fortunately did last year, and still
others make a showing no better than
merely to furnish evidence of hold
ing their own, Yellowstone maintains
it's onward progress and is yearly
growing in wealth and population. An
increase in assessed valuation of over
$685. 600 in the short period of twelve
months is one of which any county
might we'll feel proud. This increase
is made all the more remarkable by
the fact that the county has not ex-
perienced a boom since the last as
sessment roll vas completed. The
growth has been natural and not slim
ulated by any artificial means. The
figures represent an actual, solid
growth and there is no reason for TX
pecting a ~retardation or cessation of
that growth for years to come. Next
years figures may confidentally be
expected to show the same healthy
and substantial gain that those of
this year show over last years.

DOG IN MANGER POLICY.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat: Bryan,
of course, was wise in refusing the
Nebraska fusion nomination for gov
ernor. He knew his party would be
defeated in any case and a defeat for
him at the head of the state ticket
would hit his prestige pretty hard.
The fact, however, that both ele-
ments of the coalition wanted Bryan
to accept and the further fact that
the conventions of the democracy and
the populists in Kansas were over
whelmingly Bryanite in sentiment
show a situation which will give some
trouble to the re~-organizers. Bryan
will never be president, but he can
and will throw obstacles in the way of
any anti-Bryan democrat who attempts
to reach that office in the next few
years.

IRRiGATlNG PROJECT.
Carbon County Ranchmen Decide Not
to Wait for Government Ditch.

Carbon County Ranchmen Decide Not
to Wait for Government Ditch.
Red Lodge, July 2.-Wofk upon the
big canal which will be built to tap
the East Rosebud at a point called
Sand Ford and bring the waters of
that stream over on Red Lodge creek
prime movers in the enterprise are
the Weast brothers, who are heavily
interested in ranching property along
the proposed route of the canal, and
who have determined upon building
the ditch to bring in a bountiful sup
ply of water for irrigating purposes.
The idea is to, at some later date, in
corporate a stock company, composed
of those who take water from the
ditch for irrigating purposes along
the route of the canal, each person
who invests $500 in the stock Of the
company to be entitled to the use of
100 inches of the water.
The first cost Of the ditch is ex-
ed to reach the total of $50, 900.
The ditch at the outset will carry
1000 inches of water, but it's capacity
will, in a few years, be doubled by the
expenditure of $4,000 more. Fifty Or
60 ranchers along the route of the
canal will in time be supplied with
water from this ditch. which will oDen
up to settlement some of the richest
land in the county, capable of produc-
ing an enormous yield of wheat, bar
ley or oats. After the completion Of
the ditch it is bound to be an i'm
portant factor in the rapid settlement
of the country along the route Of the
canal and will materially advance in
price every ranch under the ditch.
The ditch will cross both Butcher
and Volney creeks by means of waste
gates, where the waters may be turn
ed eff at will during high water or
when not needed for irrigation. The
total length of the ditch will be 16
miles. The survey of the route of the
canal has already been made by David
Lay. The construction work will be
under the supervision of w. r. Fred
ericks of Joliet, who has already be-
gun work at the East Rosebud end,
about 80 teams and a force of men
now being engaged upon the work.

concerning the unluckiness Of odd
numbers she may be forgiven. Three
times she has been tried for ushering
Mrs. Castle out Of an ~unfeeling world
with the aid and assistance of a razor.
The first trial resulted in a disagree
ment of the jury; in the second she
was found guilty of manslaughter and
sentenced to five years in the peni-
Tertiary. She appealed, was granted
a new trial and this time has
been found guilty of murder in the
second degree, the punishment for
which is much evere than that i'm

will probably attempt to get another
chance to show that Mrs. Castle kill
ed herself, as she has asserted all
along, but in view of her disastrous
experience with new trials she may
conclude to let we'll enough alone and
give up, for %rehearings seem to be a

Mayor and Police Commission al
Peace.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.

From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
Peace has been declared between
the mayor and the police commission.A
The breach created during the incums
bency Of w. B. Calhoun as chief of
police has been bridged by a thick
coat of whitewash and all the NUT
terings once emenatiing from the
mayors Office have been hushed, tenn
porarily at least.
It was a great game of talk which
was put up to the people. The reins
of government insofar as the police
department was concerned were TAX
en- summarily out of Mayor Georges
hands and he was, so to speak, mere
ly to be a fgurehead. But presto
change! Mr.. George is again in the
saddle; even though temporarily alb
sent from the city he is in the saddle
just the same. His honor's vertebra
has been stiffened. The weak spots
have received the attention of his
friends and no longer can it be charg-
ed that Billings has a mayor who re-
lies on a police commission for .'tips"
on city government. Life in the ad-
ministration is now one continual
round of pleasure. There the mock
ing birds, the orioles and the hum
ming birds sing in unison. 1t is one
grand HARMONY chorus and people sit
and wonder how it was all accom-
plished in the brief period of a few
hours.
For diplomacy and tact the city ad-
ministration is entitled to all the
concentrations a grateful public can
bestow. It has been suggested that
the people should set aside a day on
which to render thanks that they are
allowed to live under such a wise and
thoughtful administration.

Il Is safe to assume thatsthe old pol

the pressure to bear necessary to OBJ

turn out that the much talked of Mil

by being made one Of the Montana

A THRILLING MATTER.

Being a great newspaper, the Ana
conda Standard can afford to be gen.
erous with it's contemporaries of the
country towns. Acting on this lauda-
BILE impulse it gives credit to the Kali
ispell Bee for great originality because
that paper in a recent issue ended
every one of it's articles, news and
editorial, with some reference to the
Fourth of July celebration that the
town in which it is published intends
to have. And this was done in total
disregard that the Standard some
years ago did the same thing, the
only difference being that the con-
Guiding line in that instance had ref
erence to Anaconda's aspiration to
become the state capital.
Now comes the Missoulian's histor-
ian aid declares that while the thing
is a clever conceit, the Bee cannot
claim the distinction of being the
originator of it.
OF course, not. Neither can the
Rocky Mountain News, which the
Muscular quotes as having used
something like it in 1885. Most like
ly the Denver paper, like the Standard
and Bee, borrowed the idea from
Richard A. Dana. whose "Turn the
rascals out" is still famous among
newspaper workers of the country,
especially those of older years.

HEARD TROOPS PASS
INSPIRED BY THE MUSIC AND
CHEERS.
Disappointed at Not Being Permitted
to Witness Parade Of
CoIonials.

London, July 2.-The following bull
letin was issued from Buckingham pal
C at Z p. M:
"The king maintains his steady
progress. Local pain being less, the
days are passed with greater COM
fort"
King Edward has passed another
good day and the quiet and routine of
the sick room was varied today by the
excitement of listening to the music
an cheers of the Indian troops as
they marched past the palace and
greeted Queen Alexandra on the bal
cony. King Edward demanded a full
account of the review and a formal
report was made by the Prince Of
Wales.
He commanded the Duke of Con-
naught to- compliment the colonial
troops on their excellent appearance
and to thank them for their loyalty to
royalty and sympathy. King Edward
was somewhat disappointed that he
was not able to see the march past
of the troops. He had hoped that
this would be possible from an invalid
couch in the window of the palace,
but the doctors were unwilling that
he should risk his exposure and ex-
element, and his majesty had to con
tent himself with hearing the troops
without seeing them.
The review of the East Indian
troops today was largely a repetition
Of yesterdays function, but the var
led coloring Of the uniforms of rep
resentative corps from all parts of
Hindoostan formed a more pictures
que spectacle.
Queen Alexandra was again the
central figure of the proceedings and
the public welcomed the opportunity
to testify once o it's sympathy with
her on account of the recent anxiety
and its congratulations on the good
news regarding the kings condition.
About 1900 dark-skinned troops,
headed by "a detachment of the body
guard of the Viceroy of India, Lord
Curzon, of Kedleston, reached the
Horse Guards parade to the strains of
Sousa's Hands Across the Sea-"
The Prince of Wales, representing
the king, standing by the side of his
mothers carriage, took the salute and
the proceedings ended like those of
yesterday, with cheers for the king,
led by the Duke of Connaught, the
Indians drawing their swords and
waving them wildly as they Joined
in the cheering.
On returning to the palace the
queen appeared at an upper window
and took several snapshots of the In
dian troops as they marched through
on their return to camp. The Indians
recognized the queen-empress and
each detachment cheered as it passed.
The British fleet, which assembled
off Spithead for the proposed corona
ton review, dispersed.
