Affecting Desert Land Proofs.

The commissioner of the general
land Office has just made u ruling that
will be of general interest and much
Importance to settlers. The ruling is
made 10 the matter of the third annual
proof of A. B. Mckinney on desert
land entry No. 2OS0, says the Lewis
town Argus. One of the items in
cluded in the expenditures is for pillow.
ing, discing, narrowing and scattering
oats on 20 acres of the tract, and the
total expenditures are Jumped at
$437 80. This is not satisfactory to
the commissioner for the reason that
the different items are not stated, aud
it therefore cannot be determined what
amount is claimed on account of the
narrowing, d~iscing and seeding.
The commissioner states that "while
the amount expended for breaking or
first blowing the ground may be con-
sidered as an expenditure for it's per-
manent improvement within the mean.
ing OF the law, its blowing, discing,
narrowing and seeding to oats twenty

not be SO considered, that being an in

Gold From the Little Rockies.

According to Charles Whitcomb,

mining properties in the Little Rock
les. there will be increased activity in
tha at district the coming season. Mr..
Whitcomb was IN Great Falls yester-
day with a cleanup representing a
value of about $50, 900. and to a Leader
man gave this inform alton regarding
the plans of his company:
At present about 5000 Ions Of ore
are put through each month by the
CIV anide process, but with the first of
June the output will be trebled, it be.
ing the purpose Of MIR. Whitcomb TO
put in six nor tanks, with a capacity
each double the tanks now used.
With the new tanks about 5000 tons
will be put through each month, and
the gold brick ought to be about $780,.
600. About 80 men will be employed,
and the expense per ton will be cut
much below what it is at the present
time. The Ruby mine is peculiar in
that it is being worked exactly the
salne as a stone quarry. A tunnel 300
feet long and $50 feet in depth at the
end has been run on the vein. AT the
end of the tunnel an upraise was run
to the surface, and the vein. which is
50 feet wide, is being Quarried that
! width and the length of the tunnel and
dumped from the upraise to be run
out to the mill. Grass roots, earth
and all is taken, there being not a
pound of waste left between the 50 foot
walls, and the entire output m ou'
in gold bricks averaging over IS pei
ton. AT present a body OF ore SO fee
wide and 300 feet long remains to bt
worked before the tunnel is struck, it
which the ore body shows stronger
than at any place worked.

Montana Is Good Enough.

John Survant, the we'll known Val.
ley county stockman, has returned
from a trip to South America which
he undertook for the purpose of in
vestigating the situation in the Argen-
tine Republic in regard to its cattle
raising resources. Mr.. Survant is
satisfied that Montana is good enough
for him, his opinion of the Argentine
country being reported by the Malta
Enterprise to this effect:
Range conditions are good and
those having established ranches are
able to produce the beef at a reasona.
BILE cost, but market conditions are
worse there than they have ever been
10 this country. England is the mar.
ket and prices r governed entirely
by the handlers and shippers in
Buenos Ayres, regardless of the laws
of supply aud demand, the market in
England or other factor than the will
of those who seem to be more firmly in
the saddle than even our own beef
trust. The result is that the producer
10 the Argentine is strictly up against
it, and receives less for his product
than the producers of this country.
Land is not to be had for the asking
but desirable locations are hard to
find and are rated at good figures.

CONVICTED or MANsLAUoHrER.
Second Trial of Remey ON Murder Charge
COuvicts the Defendant.

HELENA. April 9.-After having
been out just II hours, the jury ia the
case of the State of Montana against
Camille Frederic Remey, charged with
the murder Of WATSON j.. Oliver, a
son of w. NJ. Oliver, chairman of the
board OF county commissioners of
Beaverhead county, while the men
were travelling overland from Canada
to southern Montana, tod ay brought
10 a verdict finding the accused guilty
Of manslaughter. The jury left the
imposing of sentence to the court, and
Judge Henry c. Smith announced that
this would be done Saturday.
This was Remey's second trial on
the charge, the jury in the first having
disagreed after having been out ia
hours, the longest time on record in
Montana. The verdict in the second
trial was not reached until just before
the opening Of court, one man having
held out for second degree murder
from first to last. Thirty ballots 10
all were taken, and the first stood six
to six for guilt or innocence.
The Remey case attracted more than
ordinary attention from the peculiar
circumstances surrounding it. Young
Oliver, the son of q prominent resi-
dent of Beaverhead county, was on
his way home from Alberta. where he
had been engaged in ranching. He
travelled much Of the way from the do.
miniou to Lewis and Clarke county in
company with Camille Remey. a
French Can adam. His family last
heard of him while he was in Teton
county. Several weeks later his
father, who had gone in search of him,
found his body hidden under some
brush in the vicinity of Wolf creek.
Remey was at once believed To have
killed the young man and the authori.
ties of Lewis and Clark county began
a search for him. They trailed the
French.Canadian across the county
into the northwestern part of the state
and found that he had gone into
British Columbia. The pursuit wa.
continued until Remey was arrested ir
Vancouver. Remey at his trial ad
mitted the killing, but claimed he haG
shot Oliver in self. defense. 1t wa.
proven that young Oliver while ia the
northern part of the state had beer
free with his gun and that on one &C
casion he had threatened to shoot {
man. This evidence was offered tc
show that Oliver was violent in hi
quarrels and that he carried q revol
yer and had threatened TO use it. Tn,
jury evidently took this into constd

Remey sold divers property an

deuce to prove that Remey was see
