STILL ANOTHER MIsTRlAL.
For Third Time Jury Cannot Agree
in Gutenberg Case.

For the third time a jury has been
unable to decide as to the guilt or
innocence OF Carl Gutenberg, who
stands charged in the district court
with the larceny of a mare and colt
belonging to Matte Rue. His first
hearing was at the January term,
when a mistrial resulted and the case
was continued until the next term,
which occurred in March. Again a
jury could not agree and the defend
ants bond vas continued until the
present term.
Last Wednesday another attempt
was made to dispose of the cause. A
jury was secured and the case was
submitted Thursday night at about
10 o'clock. Friday morning when
court convened - tired and sleepy
men reported to Judge Loud that
there seemed to be no prospect of an
agreement. Determined to give them
all the time reasonable, his honor
sent them back to continue their de-
alterations. All day they remained
out and when evening came once more
sent word that they were as far apart
as when they began balloting. The
court remained obdurate until they
had been out almost "a hours, when
he sent for them. They told the same
story as at first. Thirty-three ballots
had been taken and the last was no
different than the first-seven for con
viction and five for acquittal. His
honor gave in and discharged the
jury. la
An order was made continuing the
defendant under the same bond. Sat
urday morning his attorney, F. H.
Hathhorn, appeared in court and
moved that the defendant be discharg-
ed and the case against him dismiss
ed. The court denied the motion and
directed that Gutenberg be in court
again for trial at the opening OF the
next term.

GOODBYE, sEeUR.
Popular Railroad Man Leaves for
New Field.

With the best wishes of a large
number of friends, which means every
one in the community that knows him
H. B. Segur, for almost eight years
general agent of the Burlington & Mis-.
souri, River railway, babe adieu to
Billings last Saturday morning and
took his departure for Beatrice, where
his future field of operations is to be.
AS has been previously published in
The Gazette, Mr.. Segur has been pro.
NOTED to the position of division
freight and passenger agent OF the
company, a promotion, which like all
advancements, means less work and
better pay.
A year ago last summer Mr.. Segur
sustained injuries while in the dis
charge of his duties from which he
has not fully recovered. He was al
Cody and undertook to help some
men load wool onto the cars. In lift
ing n of the sacks he ruptured a
blood vessel, which caused paralysis
and for a time his life was despaired
of. For several months he was un
able to do anything, but finally resum.
ed his work, not, however, without
much suffering and inconvenience. AS
the position of general agent necessi>
tates many hard journeys about the
country, as soon as the opportunity
presented itself, he was slated for
promotion and was given the place
upon which he has now entered.
Affable, untiring and jealous in
furthering the interests Of the com
pany, Mr.. Segur during the years OF
his incumbency of the office of gene
raj agent built up a large traffic for
the road, but not without hard work,
and is deserving of the best at the
roads command. If good wishes count
for aught the time will be short ere
he will be further advanced.
Mrs. Segur and children will remain
here until the schools close, when
they will also remove to Beatrice.

ELks RETURN WINNERS.
Columbus ~BasebaIlists Prove Easy
for Antlered Crowd.

Up to the last half of the third in.
ling OF the game played last Sunday
at Columbus between the nine OF that
place and a team representing the
Billings Elks. it was all Columbus.
h gentlemen of the suburb seemed
to have no difficulty in doing just
about as they pleased and it was a
pit Lession of Columbians jogging
around the diamond. The score stood
81. 1t was then that Ernie began
to put a little ginger into his pitching,
as we'll as some curves that he had
been saving up and things commenced
to change. Before the last ball was
pitched Columbus managed to get
four To- men in, but that was all.
After the Hateful third the Elks
pulled themselves together, while the
men from Columbus began to grow
wild and made repeated changes in
their players. but to no avail. They
had lost the combination and it was
over with them, as the tally sheet
showed at the end-Elks %, Columbus
9.
The Columbians proved themselves
exceedingly generous hosts, most ex.
cellent gentlemen and good losers.
They placed the town at the disposal
of the visitors and overwhelmed them
with kindness and attention. A boun>
tiful dinner had been prepared for
them and in the evening this was re-
inforced with a supper that was a
marvel to the hungry tourists.
No list of the Columbus players
could be secured. Those who wore
the Elk uniform were H. l.. Wilson,
first base; Len Worthington, catcher;
Frank Worthington, third base; e. l..
Robbins, pitcher; Bat Sheehan, short
stop; Lewis Babcock, second base;
Henry Miller, left field; Harry Wood
man, center field: l.. E. BirSen, right
field. They made up the party that
went from here. Accompanying them
were Mesdames Wilson, Birken and
Woodman, who went along as mascots.

secretary of the interior, but in no
instance is more than six hundred and
ferry acres to go to any one purchaser.
From the foregoing it will be seen
that five years are to be allowed for
dispOsihg OF inc r.oSebud lands under
the homestea. and townsite laws, be-
fore any is to be placed upon the
market to be. sold outright. AS the
matter of irrigation enters into the
| Dakota lands only incidentally, the
reservation being in what may be
said to be the rim of the semi-arid
regions, the president apparently be-
lieves that any land remaining unsold
at the expiration of that time must
possess but little actual value, unless
for the grazer. Roughly estimated,
there are almost 400, 900 acres OF land
in the coded portion of the Rosebud
reservation. Some of it is known to
be exceedingly fertile and not de-
pendent upon artificial irrigation for
the production of crops, while some,
very rich of soil, is OF a Topographic
cal nature that renders it less desira-
bic, being very hilly and rough be-
cause of it's proximity to the Missouri
river.
In this respect conditions are diff
ferent as regards the Grow reserva-
ton. In order to make the best OF the
surrendered lands responsive to the
efforts of the husbandman all must be
irrigated. To construct effective sys-
of irrigation time will be re-
quired, hence it is probable that a
longer time will be fixed before any
of the ceded lands may be
sold outright. That it is the intention
hat all of the lands shall be disposed
of as speedily as possible is very
manifest in the limit of time fixed in
which the government must complete
It's system OF irrigation under the
rational law. Five years is all that
S allowed the irrigation bureau in
which to do it's work, which means
hat unless completed by that time
enterprise will be permitted to
AXE the matter in hand and put water
m the land susceptible to irrigation.

SOME MEN AND SOME MEASURES.

Anaconda Standards: Both ends OF
Montana propose to welcome Con-
gresham Dixon back to the noun
tains. At Billings he is to be feted,
at Missoula he is to be the recipient
of a demonstration. Recent gossip
in the state as to whether, in getting
things done, Dixon did it or didn't do
it, has been funny stuff.
AS the Standards memory is, the
Muscular made a remark to the ef-
feet that Mr.. Dixon managed to push
to a successful finish legislation
which threw one or two Montana res
ervations open. Forthwith the Miner
came in with the remark that the
Muscular, "owned and controlled by
Congressman Dixon" was claiming
credit for Dixon which was not due;
in the next minute, in uncommonly
large type, the Miner, owned and
controlled by Senator Clark, declared
that the thing was done by Senator
Clark and his friends" This bit OF
pleasantly was received in a good
natured way by the Montana public,
which has sense and isn't expecting
a sick man to do a we'll mans work.
When he came back to Montana,S
Senator Gibson turned out to be wide
minded enough to speak in cordial
terms of MI. Dixon's large share in
what had been accomplished. In
truth, it happened that the congress-
man. was politically so related to the
situation that he was able to do what
no Montana democrat or pair OF Mon.
tana democrats could have hoped to
achieve. He was a republican in a
republican congress, with a glad-hand
republican in the white house who
gave him a good many friendly lifts.
AS for Senator Gibson, in the senate
he made a strong fight in a good
cause. He let congress know that the
prevailing methods of land grabbing
are wrong. He was wholly in the
right; but while Congressman Dixon
is soon to come home to laurels, Sen
ator Gibson, it appears, has incurred
the enmity of certain men who have
grabbed a good deal of land, who
want to grab more and who, they
say, are going to attack the senator
in next weeks state convention, and
punish him, if they can, by prevent
ing his selection as one of M%ontana's
delegates to st. Louis.
OF course, if the Indians, no Ion.
ger lords of fertile lands, could have
secured seats in the recent republi-
can convention they would have done
what they could to prevent the send
ing of Dixon to the national onven
ton OF. republicans and, on the score
OF quality, their opposition to him
would have been off the same piece
with the attack on Gibson-just about
the same.

GIVES THEM AN IDEA.,

Acting under the authority vested in
Tic domain portions of several Indian
reservations, President Roosevelt has
issued his first proclamation formally
opening to settlement one of the coded
areas and fixing a date when entries
may be made upon the lands contain.
ed therein.
The proclamation is OF more than
passing interest to the people of Mon
tana, as it may be accepted as indica-
tive of the plan adopted by the presi-
dent in connection with the opening OF
the lands coded in this state at prac-
tically the same time. In order that
all intending settlers shall stand on
the same level and that there may
be no "sooners," lands will be select.
ed by lot and a drawing will be held
for that purpose. For the convenience
of those fortunate enough to be among
the lucky holders of chances the land
Office of the district in which the re-
stored lands are situated is to be tenn
porarily removed to a town only four
miles distant, where entries may be
made from the date on which the
reservation is to be opened, August ..
until September 10. After the latter
date the land office will be again at
Chamberlain, it's permanent location.
Lands may be entered only under the
homestead and townsite laws. Wher-
ever it is intended to make townsite
locations persons DESTROYS OF reserv-
ing land for that purpose will be per-
mitted to make applications before
the opening, but all such applications
must be passed up on by the commits
sioner of the general land Office.
Aside from enabling them to form
a tolerably correct idea as to the plan
adopted for taking care of the first
rush of anticipated settlers, the proc
lamation also affords the people OF
h state a basis on which to calcu-
late the length of time the president
intends to hold the coded lands OF
the Grow and Flathead reservations
Tor settlement under the maximum
price fixed by law that settlers must
pay. No person will be permitted
to settle upon, occupy or enter any
OF the Rosebud lands, except in the
manner prescribed, until after the ex-
piration of sixty days from the time
when the, same are opened to Settle
ment n entry. When that time shall
have expired entries may be made in
h usua manner and lor a period of
three months thereafter such lands
as still remain u~ndisposed of must
be entered under the maximum price,
81 an acre. Taking it for granted
that the most desirable of the lands
will have been selected at the end of
three months thereafter, So an acre
must be paid for the next six months,
and after that $3.50 an acre until
after the expiration of four years.
Any lapd then still remaining undis,
posed of is to be sold for cash, under
regulations to be prescribed by he

crops In different sections OF the arid
region OF the United States.
y This bulletin brings out the fact. not

pairing land for irrigation Is In many
instances greater than the cost OF
building canals and reservoirs. De-
tailed figures OF the cost OF checking
land show that IL varies In certain dis
,ricts In California from 1886 to $ls.'
0s per acre. This is more than twice
the cost OF the canal systems In the
San Joaquin valley. California. which

price OF preparing land for flooding u

standing OF this particular branch O.
Irrigation practice Is becoming no.e
and more Important.
Reservoirs and canals are but means
TO accomplish u purpose. That pur-
pose Is To incr-aEe the products OF the
