MONTANA NEWS
ANTITRUST LAW VALID.

Montana Attorney General Assails the
Beef Trusts Contention.
I'm the beef trust cases now on ap-
peal before the supreme court, Attor-
-ney General Albert Galen has filed
tthe appellants brief with the clerk Of
the supreme court. These cases were
brought by former Attorney General
James Donovan against the Cudahy
Packing company, the Hammond
Packing company Armour & Co. and
Swift & Co., charging them with hav-
ing formed combination for the pur-
pose of controlling prices on packing
commodities.
The state lost the case in the low
-er court of Lewis and Clark county,
when Judge Henry C. Smith sustained
the demurrer of the defendant compa-
MES on the ground that the law is un.
constitutional
The brief of Attorney General Ga
len refers to the decision of the SUI
preme court OF Illinois in which the
antitrust law in that state was held
unconstitutional and on which the de-
PENDANTS base their case. He claims
on behalf of the case that this decis-
ion will not apply to the Montana law,
because of the differences in the con-
stitution, that of Montana containing
"a clause which makes it mandatory on
the state legislature to pass law for
bidding all corporations to enter into
"a combination or trust.

uB. s. Thresher, Butte Attorney, Is
Fined and Imprisoned.

uS0 0ssA PstoOHSNs
B. s. Thresher, one of the best
known attorneys in Butte, was fined
$500 and committed to the county jail
for five days for contempt Of court
and for using dilatory tactics to him
der and delay the administration of
justice. This action was taken after
: the court had private conference
with Mr.. Thresher on his reason for
filing an affidavit of disqualification
against the Judge. The suit was that
sof A. w. Barnard against B. s. Thresh-
er. Judge Henry G. Smith of Helena
was the sixth judge to be called on
account of the affidavits of disqualifl-
cation filed by Thresher. Before i'm
posing the fine the judge asked
"Thresher to make public the state
ments he had privately made to the
court or to allow the court to do 80,
but Thresher refused. Thresher asked
a stay of execution but the court re-
fused it, saying that the sentence
would only be held in allegiance long
enough to try the main case. The
trouble is the outgrowth of a suit in
;stituted by A. W. Barnard to evict
''Thresher for failing to pay Office rent
for the past three years. Barnard
beat Thresher in the justice court,
Thresher appealed to the district
court, filing affidavits Of disqualified
lions against five judges called in to
hear the case, alleging bias and preju-
dice.

HOOK READS OF DEATH.

by Enterprise If oublisher.
Chicago, Aug. 6.-Johann Hook was
surprised yesterday when he received
in his mail copy of weekly news
paper published in small town in
Indiana, which contained detailed
account of the execution of the alleged
murderer and bigamist last Friday.
1t appears that the newspaper went to
press the day before the date fixed
for the hanging, and, believing Hook
would not obtain reprieve, the en-.
terprising editor took a chance and
wrote graphic story of the event.

Ask Government to Take Hold.
With no intention of admitting the

but in the hope of reviving confidence
here and elsewhere in the South Of

yesterday to send request to Presi-
dent Roosevelt to have the United

Roosevelt last night forwarded to Sur
geon General Wyman, Of the public
health and marine hospital service. a
telegram from Gov. blanchard OF
Louisiana, requesting that the United
States government take control of the
yellow fever situation in New Orleans.
The president directed the surgeon
general to take every step in his pow
err to meet the situation in New Or
leans. and to notify him what further
action is advisable and possible for
the federal authorities to take.
DR.. Wyman will confer to-day with
Secretary Shaw, the surgeons in the
marine hospital service, and others as
to the best course to pursue on Gov.
Blanchard's request, and on their
conclusions DR.. Wyman's report to
the president will be based.
Patrol Boats Seized.
New Orleans, Aug. 6.-The Missis-

the appearance of the Louisiana naval
militia yesterday was purely for effect
and not to stop their further depreda-
tons in Louisiana waters. They
found out their mistake when the flag
ship of the patrol squadron, the Grace,
and another vessel the Tipsey, sta
toned at Lake Borgne canal. were
seized, their flags hauled down and the
officers and crews placed under ar
rest. The crew of the Tipsey will be
taken to st. Bernard parish, while the
crew of the Grace will be brought to

fLIMSy EXCUSES
Governors Message Conveying
His Veto of Irrigation Bill

To the Honorable, the Senate:
Gentlemen:-I have the honor to re-
turn to your honorable body without ap-
proval Senate Bin No. "a, an act re-
stricting the sale of liquor in certain To-
calities and providing penalties for vio-
lations of this act
My objections to this bill are that the
subject matter contained restricting the
sale OF liquor in certain localities cannot
be considered in any sense other than
special in character.
Our State law empowers the county off,
GERS to issue a license to any person
applying to do business in any part of
the State, providing that such business
is carried out in a decent and orderly
manner, including wholesale and retail
goods, wares and merchandise of every
kind and character. This act restricts
the sale of liquor. etc, within five miles
Of any public works. No person can do
business in the line indicated without
getting licenses from the State and Fed
eral Governments. If the revenue off,
GERS of the government should be en-
powered to refuse applications for H.
censes within the limits prescribed, there
would be no necessity for the law The
law would, IL passed, make such commu-
mites conform to military rules concern
ing United States garrisons and reser-
vations. The limit of five miles is ex
treme and might interfere with the legit-
innate business which should be allowed
under the laws of the Senate. This BILL
il passed. authorizes the sale Of liquor
by wholesale. and If wholesale liquor IL
eenses be granted there can be no rea-
sonable excuse for depriving the retail
dealer from doing business
Respectfully.

DEATH OF ARCONAUT
"BilI' Gibson. a Gambler, Pa.
ssed Away at Ripe Old Age

w. d. c. Gibson died in Carson Mon
day of pneumonia. He had not been all
ing more than week and his death was
unexpected.
"Bill' Gibson, as he was known all
over Nevada, was born in Cincinnati,
Ohio, in 1880 and came round the Horn to
California with the Argonauts of 40. He
came to Virginia City about 81 and
opened business in Gold Hill.
For many years he was leading spirit
in the old Comstock lode and served two
terms in the Senate during the stirring
times that the State was battling with
the " q T. railroad. He was always
true to his pledges and after the MEM
orable session of '79 he was one Of the
foremost champions of the people of
Storey. After the session he was one
of the members to whom a public BAN
quet was given.
1t Is related OF him that he was ap-
preached by a lobbiest to violate his
pledges and refused, giving as his rea-
son, II belong to the gambling frater-
nifty and If l violate my pledges for
money l will lose caste in the profess
sion"
His word was always as good as his
bond and with his death passes away one
OF the well-remembered and picturesque
figures of the early history of the State.
