The Montana plaindealer. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1906-1911, 1906-09-28

The morning newspaper in a
long TRADE headed "Uplift of the
Negro" but really column of
hog wash directed against a young
colored man whose highest ambi-
ton is to run a saloon or crap
game, should challenge this young
man to mortal or some other COM
bat, as the people are no doubt
fatigued at their differences. This
young man, owing to his ancestry,
has not had much of a chance in
the world, but it looks as though
he will in some way get through
the world. If the great moral
daily will just arrange it SO their
little differences can be put on to
a finish the public will certainly
feel relieved.

and the creek bottom below. With

ceeded, in getting over this hill and
camped beside a small stream where
there were were few open park like
places in the timber which afforded
grass for the horses. After resting the
horses few days and killing a deer
for meat in camp, we started once
more for the Yellowstone Valley,
south of the National Park. We got
our horses together one morning,
broke camp, packed up, and tackled
the next hard proposition, that of
crossing the divide, a hill worse than
the rest, in that it is longer and higher
and has two very bad places on it,

Discovery Of at Least a 1000 Elk.

the day was spent telling stories, cook

feet, here the snow was about three or
four inches deep amid dense clump

A Descent Into Another Valley.

Once over the divide and our backs
turned to the cold and snow, we began
the descent in another valley, the
snow becoming less as down we went,
and the signs of game more plentiful.
Trees freshly barked by the rasping of
elk's horns, great paths of elk and
deer tracks but few days old, made
by animals evidently driven with the
storm. An occasional lion track fol-
lowing these tracks in search of prey;
coyotes tracks by the dozen following
in pursuit of what the lion or hunter
might leave, and now and then a wolf,
wildcat and snow shoe rabbit, beside
many moose tracks, were seen from the
trail. We pitched our tent and camped
that evening in the best of spirits with
such bright prospect before us.
Though the sun was shining through
broken cloudy sky that evening, the
following morning the snow was fall
ing fast, and with lot of tired horses,
from a previous days hard pack, we
decided to remain one day.
