These Will Guide the House of the Eighth
Legislative Assembly.
WAS IN SESSION Is MINUTES
And the Senate Only = 'enteen Enthusiastically Have
Not Settled Down. 4 raj Did Not Report--Even
Speaker White I Not Returned

Helena, Jan. 12.-The proceedings
of the house of the eighth legislative
assembly will be conducted accord
ing to the rules of the late Thomas
B. Reed. That was decided upon at
caucus of republican members of
the house held this afternoonin the
rooms of the judiciary committee i'm
mediately after the adjournment of
the house. The republican caucus
was the main legislative feature of
the session today. It had been de-
cided, by the committee on rules to
submit them to the republican men,
bers in caucus before reporting them
to the Who'll house. With a few trif-
ling changes the rules of the house
of the last legislative assembly were
adopted, the main change being that
it was decided to adopt the rules of
Thomas B. Reed, instead of Roberts
Rules of Order, which heretofore had
been the guide. The house was in
session today only 26 minutes, and
the senate only II minutes. Very lit
tie was done by either. A number of
members had not reported here from

Where Justice Was Blind.

A visitor to Jennings reports re-
markable proceeding in the justice
court at that place recently. Two of
tenders against the peace and dignity
of the state of Montana, who had
been surreptitiously stealing ride
continental train and been ditched
at Jennings water tank, were prompt
ly arrested by constable, and the
search developed that box car tour
list No. | was without visible means
of support, while No. 2 was possessed
of about $50 in good American coin.
The men were arraigned before his
honor that same day and the list of
their offenses being plainly stated
and the court inspiring them with
proper awe, both men pleaded guilty
and We're ordered to stand up for
sentence. Here's where the proper
identity of the culprits became
mixed much to the subsequent cha
grin of the court and officials. B. -
T. No /, who was as broke as a
Digger Injun, received his sentence
of $50 or 60 days with a grin, while
B. c. r., No 2 who had wealth,
frightened up when his sentence was
given of a two hour foater, and re-
marked that he would leave in less
time than two hours after they gave
him his money back.

In so Far as Relates to the Sheriff

BILE -Teeters Had No Call to Serve
Warrants on Pot Hunting Indians.

A legacy handed down to the new
board of county commissioners is a
suit for $S4.1O, instituted by David
Teeters, constable of Libby precinct.
This amount was claimed by the
constable as a legal charge for hunt
ing down and arresting two Indians
who We're charged with Illegally kill
ing deer A complaint was made be-
fore justice at Libby, charging the
infraction of the law, and warrant
was issued and placed in the consta-
ble's hands for service. He had no
option but to make attempt to serve
the same, and after long and ardu-
Gus trip in the hills, finally overlook
his Indians and brought them into
court.
Without the assistance of the sher-

A YEAR TOO LATE.
Northern Pacific Railway Brings Suit
Against the County.

Against the County.
Suit was brought against Treas
urer Hilburn Monday by the North
ern Pacific Railway company, to re-
strain him from selling certain lands
belonging to that company for delin-
quent taxes. The lands are in west
ern Flathead county, and were as
sessed as belonging to the company,
and when the taxes became delin-
quent they were offered for sale. At
the time the suit was commenced a
restraining order was served upon
the treasurer to prevent him from
making the sale, but it appears that
the company is a year too late, as
the lands were sold at the delinquent
tax sale of 1902. The company base
their action on the claim that at the
time the lands were taxed they were
not in their possession, and for that
reason the taxes could not be
charged to them. William Wallace,
Jr., is the Montana representative of
the Northern Pacific land departmen
and he, together with J. B. McNamee
and w. H. Dyer, are the attorneys
who will represent the company
when the case comes to trial.

him as a man of wondrous nerve and
resourcefulness. Some time ago he
appeared at the Mcintosh Hardware
company in this city and, represent
ing that he had a big contract for
cutting logs at Lakeview he secured
goods to the amount of about 5000
by mortgaging two teams he had
with him, as we'll as other horses at
his camp. re also secured several
hundred dollars worth of goods from
the X. M. store, and smaller sums
from other merchants of the city
With the bob sleds, chains. cant
hooks. etc. thus secured he returned
to Lakeview and commenced the
work of getting out logs. To do so
he had to hire teams, as it afterward
developed that he didn't posses an
ounce of horsehesh and had worked
the merchants with a fairy story.
Last week his dupes became sus-
picious that all was not as he had
described, and an investigation
proved that Dodds was hiring teams
to do his work and that no signs
could be found of all the property he
had mortgaged. It was thought at
first that he had sold the stuff and a
warrant was made out charging him
with that crime.
He was arrested Thursday and ar
raigned Friday. and his trial set for
today. Further investigation proving
that he never did own any property.
| the charge was to have been changed
| and one OF securing money under
false pretenses substituted
Since his incarceration Dodds has
been anxious to get legal advice, but
after the first interviews the attor-
neys never came back, for Dodds is
short of funds. He told one lawyer
that he would promise him good
fee if he would clear him, but he
would have to wait until he earned
it. In his attempt to secure bail
Dodds visited all the merchants in
town and represented that Mcintosh
and Conlon also intended going on
his bond with others Of them. and he
had the nerve to approach Mr.. Nc
lntosh after the others had signified
a willingness to help him and re-
quested him to go his surety. AS
Mr. Mcintosh had figured conspicu-
ously in Dodd's arrest for obtaining
goods under false pretenses he natur-
ally declined.

ESCAPES FROM THE COUNTY JAIL
AS Darkness Falls Over the Land-Had Requested Permission

Swung Open Street Door and ESCAPED.

The first Jail break of Sheriff
Greig's regime occurred last night at
$50, when w. Dodds, the smooth in
dividual recently arrested at Lake
view. evaded the vigilance of Jailer
Henry Hubbart and bolted through
the front door to liberty The escape
was the boldest that has yet occurred

certainly been enough. and shows
the quick wit of the prisoner.
Dodds had been locked in the cor
ridor during the day. and about 6: 80
he asked the jailer for permission
to use the telephone and this was
granted. and he was given the free
dom of the Jail Office. The door to
the street was unlocked, and watch
ing his opportunity Dodds made a
break and dashed for the street and
disappeared around the corner of the
creamery. The jailer was alone at
the time and the move was so sud
den that for moment he was help
less, and being unable to leave a Jail
full of prisoners he telephoned the
news of the escape to the sheriff S
office. Sheriff Gregg and his depu-
ties Immediately took up the chase
and were most dligent last night
sending out descriptions of the miss
ing man in every direction. and
sleuths were on the trail. Dodds was
harbored for the night on the west
side, but before noon today one OF
the sleuths had trailed him dowr
and he was returned to the strong
cell at about 1 a. M.
The sheriff's officers were natural
ly much chagrned over the escape
and at first made an effort to keep
the affair secret in hopes of recap.
turing the prisoner before the matter
became known. They were disap
pointed in this and the news of the
escape soon became general.
While prisoners are permitted tc
use the telephone it is against the
rules of the Jail, as it allows chances
of escape. 1t is also said that while
Dodds was using the telephone the
jailer was engaged in writing a let
ter and his attention was off the
prisoner for moment, who quickly
grasped the chance offered him.

present, and it has been the custom
for the sheriff's officers and consta-
bles to serve any and all papers
placed in their hands for infractions
OF the game law.
Further, in behalf of Mr.. Teeters,
he is credited with being a most in
dustrious officer, and has been espe-
cially active in ferreting out break
ers of the game law and has exerted
good influence in his section.
But the county commissioners of

Mr.. Teeters' case in the following alb
surd statement:

this county has a deputy named

looking after game matters, and the
people pay for this expense through
their taxes.
I'VE hold that you have no bust
