The army transport Buford sailed
yesterday on time, at five o'clock in the
afternoon. She goes to Manila via
Guam In the morning at eight o'clock
the entire regiment of troops. the
third cavalry, left the shin and took
cars for Kapiolani Park, where a most
enjoyable day was spent. The band
went with the men and sports of all
kinds We're INDUCED in. The regiment
returned to the ship between three and
four, after the coaling was all over
The change was good for the men and
made it easier to coal, as it was neces-
sary to bring the coal right through
the soldiers mess room.
At the dock at five o'clock. was quite
a crowd of army people and their
friends. AS the steamer pulled away
from the wharf, the third cavalry band
played an inspiring air. AS soon as
they had finished, the Hawaiian band
struck UP d lively tune followed by
the Star Spangled Banner, which
p1ouSht OIL every DOQy s nat. BY the
time the piece was finished, the troop
ship was well out and ready to turn
around Capt. Berger then had the
boys repeat the piece in subdued tones,
gradually diminishing until it must
have sounded like an echo on board
when the last strains reached them
The troopship's band then respond
ed with Aud Lang Syne in farewell
AS the ship went down the channel
the band continued to play and the eff
feet of music on the water was charm
ing. There We're an unusually large
number OF ladies aboard this transport
and both the passengers and those who
either knew them before or met them
here express themselves as having
spent a most delightful Christmas.
The next transport to come here will
be the Sherman from Manila. She left
Nagasaki yesterday and will arrive
here on the, 9Th, en- route to San Fran
cisco.

ARRIVAL OF THE LAYTON.

The u S. n. auxiliary Lawton, Pond,
arrived from San Francisco at a. m.
yesterday with two days later mail, 125
sacks. The ship was detained two days
at San Francisco on account of five hos
pftal apprentices from Norfolk. Hence
she did not sail until Monday, the 18th.
The trip was made in a little over
seven days. which is an Improvement
over her previous record. There was a
southeasterly gale blowing before the
auxiliary left, but the storm signals
were lowered before leaving. However,
the ground swell kept up until two days
out from Honolulu and made most of
the passengers sick.
The last two days, however, were
pleasant and a very enjoyable Christ
mas dinner was served, which to some
extent compensated for the disappoint-
ment of the officers and crew in not be-
ing able to spend Christmas in Homo
lulu.
The Lawton has on board some
stores for Honolulu, also mail and
senger list includes Lieut.. Jeter r. Hor-
ton, U. S. NJ c., formerly city editor

come of it and that the prosecution
was only piece of buncombe to
strengthen Mr.. Roosevelt's political
chances. Few people looked at it
that way. however. and they have
been rewarded for their faith in the
president.
Another thing that is developed in
this case, as it has in several others.
and that is the far-reaching power OF
the Sherman antitrust law. It seems
to meet the emergency when it's pro.
visions are called to the attention of
the supreme court and a ruling is
asked. Lack of desire to prosecute
under the law appears to have been
the great difficulty.
The decision will be hailed with
pleasure by the stockmen of Montana,
who have suffered many wrongs at the
hands of the packers, whose trickery
and cunning in their efforts to control
the market and to prevent competitive
bidding has euchred the growers out

MR.. DIxON'S BILL.

The bill introduced in the national
house of representatives by Congress.
man j. NJ. Dixon, of this state, amend
ing the homestead law, in accordance
with the Nebraska bill passed at a
former session, appeared in the Argus
several weeks ago.
The bill provides that after the sec
rotary of the interior has designated
and excluded all lands within Montana
impossible to irrigate, that on any re-
naming lands homestead entrymen
may file on $40 acres of land instead
of 100. as at the present time. All
homesteaders who have heretofore
used their homestead right will have
the privilege of making new entry
after deducting the amount of land
covered in the first entry.
While the law gives satisfaction in
western Nebraska, where all desirable
lands in 100 acre tracts were taken
up years ago, and while South Dakota
might be benefited by such change
in the law, we believe it is a little
too early for Montana. Better wait
eight or ten years. The time is COM
ing when some such law, or change in
the law, will meet the conditions here,

THE STATE GAME WARDEN.

The state legislature is seriously
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of dispen.
sing with the office of state game
warden and amending the law in some
particulars. 1t is doubtful whether the
benefits of the law through its opera
tons are commensurate with the ex-
pense attached thereto, owing to the
great expanse of territory which must
be watched and visited to prevent in
fractions of the statutes. 1t has been
suggested that the sheriff's force in

bring offenders to justice and thereby
save great expense to the counties
and to the state. Taking this view of
