TWO HELENA CITIZENS.
Have a Thrilling Encounter; but
Succeed in killing the Bear

The news that Arthur Palmer
and Jas. Howard really killed a
bear was received by their many
friends with great mediocrity and
precaution, not to say incredulity,
One of their friends went so far as
to say that either one of those
boys would run at the sight of a
bear, and the only way they would
capture one would be to bring him
into camp alive, they doing the
hot foot.
But with all of this the boys
came to town with the proof, and
THE PLAINDEALER vouches for the
accuracy Of their statement. They
really bagged big cinnamon cub,
which weighed about zoo lbs. He
was punctured by at least eight
bullets.

Nearly IA Tragedy.

The two Helena nimrods of
course thought beyond peradven-
ture that eight leaden messengers
of death had despatched bruin to
dreamland, when Jim Howard, in
true huntsman style, approached
their PROSTATE, apparently lifeless,
victim with his keen huntsman's
knife, and was in the act of stick
ing him that he might bleed the
cub came to life and gave him a
vicious tap with his right paw in
the forehead, and Jim saw stars;
but the ebb Of life was too low,
and he could not follow it up, and
Jim in a more careful and diplo-
matte way put him out of harms
reach.
They triumphantly brought his
hide and forepaws home as SOU
venirs of their two weeks outing
on the Muscleshell of 1906.
After indisputable facts and in
disputable evidence had been pro-
duced that Arthur and Jim had
really bagged the cub, one of their
friends who was hard to be con-
vinced, but had to give in on
account of the preponderance oi
evidence in their behalf, gave the
following version of the shooting
Of the bear, it run like this
THE boys were out in a wooded
section where the underground
was very thick; they had been
cautioned to be careful in shooting
on account of the cattle; they
both saw an object in the under
brush at the same time; they were
uncertain as to what it was, but
both fired simultaneously. AS the
object reeled over Arthur jumped
up in joyful glee and shouted

EMANCIPATION DAY

Saturday, Sept. 22d is the Forty
fourth anniversary of the assurance
by abraham Lincoln of the famous
Emancipation Proclamation, which
struck the shackles of slavery
from 100000 souls, and marked
the death of slavery in the United
States. In every community
where there are any of oar people,
they should hold appropriate eXer-
cises in celebrating this event; and
when we look over the events
which have transpired since that
time, instead of a feeling of re-
morse for being identified with a
prosecuted race, we cannot but
think we should feel highly hon
ored, for no race in the history OF
the world has made the progress
which has been ours since Lin
coins Proclamation, or in a like
period in any other time.
Aside from reachiug the highest
rung in all the professions, trades,
etc, there has been no momentous
event since freedom but what the
Negro has played conspicuous
part both to his own credit and the
honor of the country.
In the vestibule of freedom
where the old flag was trailing in
the dust the Negro Soldier,
freedman fighting as only freed
men can, picked it up, and the
Union was saved. In the Spanish
american War the Negro Soldier
stormed San Juan Hill and ascend
ed Elcaney and saved the day.
At all times, even in civil lite he
has been a dependable quantity
a staunch supporter of good gov
ernment,- he has accumulated
from nothing in '63, millions OF
acres of lands, is assessed for
S8OO,OOO,0O0 in property, conducts
thirty-two banks, operates street
railway systems, steamboat lines,
and is represented in all the aven-
uos of business, he certainly has
cause to meet and celebrate. The
colored people of Helena for the
first time will hold appropriate
exercises for the occasion, and
everv citizen Of all races is cor
daily invited to attend the exer-
cises at this Office, on Saturday
evening. the 22d, celebrating the
Forty. fourth anniversary of the
Emancipation Proclamation for
the Abolition of Slavery in
America.

THE HON, JOSEfh W.
Last week we visited Missoula,
the home of Hon. J. M. Dixon,
Congressman from this State; we
had the pleasure for the first time
Of meeting him, and found him as
he had been commended to us, a
broad d-gauged, progressive, and up
to-date Republican, who greeted
US kindly, and who takes a genu-
inc interest in our progress both
as it relates to the progress OF our
own people, and the general status
of our people; he struck a popu-
lar chord with us when he said,
ut seems to me you should advo-
cate the idea of your people be-
coming land-holders and taX-pay.

than to the barber shop and shin

interest in our narrative of some
OF the yicissitudes through which
We have passed, and of some OF
the acquaintanees which we have
formed, who have become men of
national note. After meeting him
We ceased to wonder at the inn
mense popularity that he has
gained in this section, and we are
convinced that he stands for, like
our own Teddy, a square deal
for all.

AwoRKlNa GOVERNOR.

The Banner cannot be accused of
ever having tried TO ride on the Proc
tor band wagon, but, from the record
Fletcher Proctor has made since he
became governor, We are inclined to
admire the Judgment OF those who did.
From the time he graduated from
plain citizenship 10 the headship OF the
state government he has been found AT
his bench every day working for the
interests OF the state In a straighttor-
ward, unaSsuming fashion calculated
TO inspire hope and merit confidence.
What Vermont has needed for years
has been public men who were not
wholly content with the glory OF the
past and the moderate prosperity of
the present, but who would take hold
of the stroke oar and set a pace, not
hectic or calculated to rack the boat,
but in harmony with the world as 1t Is
today and with an eye TO the future
instead OF the past,
This is what Governor Proctor has
been doing. Not before in the men,
DRY of the present generation has Yer
mont had II governor who has taken
such an active and healthy interest in
proposed legislation aud appeared So
thoroughly free from prejudice and
/ special interests.
lie has not feared 10 take up the
cudgel tor the people against the rail-
roads, against the tax dodgers, and to
punish those who have used public
places Tor private profit, He works
openly for progressive laws aud tor
the first time IN the history OF Yer
mont an administration measure
has a significance that rallies to it the
confidence and support OF those who
are striving for greater and better
Vermont.
In the plain language OF plain
people, Governor Proctor is making
good. His predecessors in office,
Governors Bell and Mccullough were
two OF our best governors. The stand,
ard has been raised, permanently, it is
to be hoped, and Vermont will in the
end profit thereby Bennington
