Life Sentence For Sherman.

LEW1sTOWN, Feb. lO.-This after
noon Judge Cheadle sentenced James
Sherman. recently found guilty of
murder In the second degree for the
murder of Samuel S%tudzinski, to i'm.
prisonment for life. Judge Cheadle,
who has known Sherman for some
years, aud who, like all others, con.
sidered him a model young man, was
profoundly moved while passing SEN
tence and stated that it was the most
unpleasant duty he had ever been
called upon to perform.
Sherman himself went through the
ordea al without moving q muscle and
smiled broadly Is his honorconcluded.
Before passing sentence Judge Cheadle
stated that ten physicians named by
him to make an examination of the
mental condition of the defendant, as
we'll as a number of laymen. had un-
animously reported that the prisoner
was ane He therefore overruled the
defendants motion in arrest OF iudg.
ment made last Thursday, setting GU,
that Sherman is now insane.
An immense crowd, including many
women, witnessed the closing scene ir
this celebrated case. Most of those
present had known Sherman q long
time, and profound regret at this ter
rible close of what promised to be ,
most brilliant career was everywhere
expressed. Outside of Shermans
family there is scarcely a person il
this city who does not believe that the
fate that has o%vertaken Sherman is
just one. The prisoner will be takel
TO Deer Lodge nex Wednesday.

BILLINGS, Feb. lO.-A bout thirty
men who came from Kansas City q
few days ago for the purpose of going
10 work on the extension of the Bur.
ling.on railroad at Frannie, Wyo., ar
rived in Billings this morning and APP
piled to the city authorities for assis.
lance in getting back home. Accord.
ing to their story, they were shipped
to Frannie by employment agencies
for the purpose of going to Work on
the above named railroad and,
according to the terms of the contract,
they claim they were to be given
steady employment.
Instead of this, the men aileye tina,
when they arrived u. t'rannie they
had to buy gloves, overails and o,he,
supplies at the commissary's store,
and after being permitted to work for
one day were discharged to make place
for a new gang of men, who were
tire ated in q similar manner The men
declare that their treatment is the re-
salt of u game OF graft arranged be-
tween the employment agencies aud
the contractors, who, they allege,
divide the fees which are paid the
agencies by the men for the jobs they
are supposed to receive.

Irrigation Projects DO Not Conflict

Some apprehension having been ex.
pressed by the friends of the Milk
river irrigation project that its pro-
gress may be affected by efforts being
made on behalf of the Sun river un.
dertaking, Mayor l.. Newman, of
Havre, recently sought Information
upon the matter from Senator Carter.
The latter has replied in part to this
effect:
1t is confidently expected that both
of these projects will be worked along
as rapidly as available funds will per.
nit. They are both meritorious and
there is no necessary conflict between
them.
The Milk river project will start
first because the data have been in the
possession of the department, and
upon those data an appropriation has
been made and work will be com.
menced as DOR as practicable. The
impression vas created through some
means at Great Falls that the Sun
river project was being suppressed at
Washington in the interest of the Milk
river project. The Great Falls dele.
cation upon arriving here, quickly
ascertained that this impression was
without any foundation whatever, for
the reasons above stated. that the SUR
veys we're not worked out into final
figures as to Sun river.
The people of the Milk river country
may rest assured tn at the great project
will not be held IN allegiance, but will
be pressed forward as rapidly as cou-
ditions will allow.
1t is oppOrtuue to to the
people ia the Milk river valley that
the agreement OF privat land owners
TO cooperate with the government un'
der the water users association plan
must necessarily precede any extensive
work ia that valley. The amount oil
government land in the valley will no,
alone warrant the construction oi
great works without the participation
OF the patented land. The people 0!
Sun river are far in advance of the
Milk river people in the adjustment OF
private rights and the signing OF
agreements to cooperate with the re
clamation service. I am Informed
that about 81 per cen OF all the people
along the main canals of the Sun rive,
project have sigord the agreement and
are anxious to actively cooperate
with the service. The immediate task
before the Milk river people involves
the work necessary to bring private
land ownership into harmony with The
proposed government operation.

Referee Decides Against Runchcrs.

BUTTE. Feb. S.-Findings of Nj aster
in Chancery Oliver L. Crane in the
noted case of Hugh Magone against
the different smelling and mining com
panies OF Butte aud Anaconda have
been returned, finding practically for
the defendant companies on the
grounds that the damages accrued
from the pollution of the streams into
which the tailings from the smelling
and mining plants had been dumped
in turn being deposited on farming
land in the Deer Lodge valley was
more than offset by the general good
resulting from the operation of the
smelters, which the action of Magoue
sought To close.
Master Cranes finding will be sub
mitted To Federal Judge William II.

masters decisions, deciding whether
or no, an injunction order against the
smelling companies shall be issued.
