Affecting Livestock Taxes.

HELENA, Dec. I'm an opinion re-
quested by John w. Duffy, of the
Granite county board of commission.
ers, Attorney General Galen today
again deals with the question of as
sessment for taxation of cattle that
are in one county at one season of the
year and in a different county at an.
other season.
Attorney General Galeu refers to
the decision of the supreme court 10
the suit of the Flowerree Cattle com.
pany against Lewis and Clark county
and concludes that the decision in this
suit rules in a situation like that pre-.
sented by the Granite county chair
man, although the Granite county cat
tie were not returned to that county
after their winters feeding in Beaver
head.

Indian May BE L. :. senator.

TUsKOGEE, l.. r.. Dec. l1.--With
the admission as a state of Indian
Territory and Oklahoma, a native
American Indian may take a seat in
the United States senate. BY an act
of congress the tribal relations will
cease on March 1. and the Indians
will become voters.
The one figure for senator from the
Indian Territory end OF the new state
Is General Pleasant Porter, chief of
the Creek nation. He is q man of
great wealth and has the respect of
all. His great.grandfather was An.
drew j. Porter of Norristown, Pa,
and his grandfather, Captain John S.
Porter, of the regular army, who
married an Indian woman, and was
adopted into the tribe IN Alabama.
General Porter was in command of
Creek Indians in the Confederate ser.

Ravalli Voters Favor Saloons

MIssOULA, Dec. 9.-Seven hundred
and eleven wet votes and Alp dry ones
was the result of the special election
on the the local option question in
Ravalli county today after all but
two small precincts had been heard
from this evening. These TWO were
Alta, which registered six votes, and
Lula, which has %; so the result would
not be changed.
Reports from Hamilton and Stevens.
Vile state that the election was as iu.
teresting a 8 q regular presidential al
campaign and the results show a full
vote cast and indicate that the interest
In the question has been general. The
result at Stevensville, always consid.
cred the stronghold Of the antics aloou
element, was considered more surpris.
Ing than at any point in the valley,
the temperance people losing by one
vote. Hamilton was practically all
wet, and out of the total of 33l votes
cast 236 OF them we're in favor of H.
censed saloons and 50 opposed.
The result of the election was a great
disappointment to the leaders of the
Anti-Saloon league, and while some
OF them realized that the fight was
close, they were not expecting such q
landslide. No agitation toward con.
testing the election has been hron0ht
about in Hamilton.
