let officers made a big haul last night
when they captured two blind tigers
and about seven hundred half pints
of booze.
A raid was made on the Happy
Hovligan' now known as the White
Star Cafe, and about n hundred half
pints Of the forbidden liquid was
ound. The other was captured in a
wagon which was just making its way
into town.
The officers got wind that a lot of
of the bug juice had been shipped
to Osborne and would be conveyed
from that place to be dispensed IN

too blind and failed to calculate on

liquor was taken to the police station
and locked up. Clarence Mccall, also
OlOred, was found in charge Of the
White Star and he was required to
keep the other culprit company. The
horse and wagon that was captured
along with the hOoze is being held at
headquarters and it seems that no one
is in a hurry to put in a claim.
1t is generally understood that the
negroes that were captured were only
acting as agents for the real offenders

ARRESTED.

WadesborO, June 18.-Telephonic
adVices tell OF the arrest Of Henry
Robinson at Rcnnettsville. S. c.. Rob-
insOn is charged with the murder of
Sandy Purvis. a native of Arson
county. The shooting took place last
Sunday morning just across the line
in South Carolina. Purvis attempted
to interfere in a quarrel in which Rob-
inson and his wife were engaged and
was shot and instantly killed. From
the reports received here it seems that
Mrs. Purvjs was also shot il the dis
turbance and she ran to her husband
with a gun but he did not attempt to
shoot Robinson and apologized for in
terfering in his family affairs. Pur-
Wis turned and started home and Rob-
inson shot him in the back.

OF all the nerve that has been
brought to our notice of late, is the
unlimited amount shown by the city
of Lander, in asking for a Federal
building. Now Senator Warren has
been very diligent in getting the
principle cities of the state a Federal
building and in all of the cases it was
needed, but why a town the size of
Lander should ask tor a Federal
building is beyond our comprehen-
sion. Saratoga is a better and bigger
town than Lander and we never even
dreamed of asking for any such
building and don't intend to until we
are big enough to justify it. The
work of our Senators in getting for
their state as much as they have is
almost marvellous, when you stop to
think of what "a small state Wyoming
is in comparison to others in popula-
ton. But then some people would
"look a gift-horse in the mouth"

The Coming Season

There is little doubt as to what the
coming spring and summer will be
IN a business way In this valley.
There is nothing to prevent, at the
present time, one of the best years
this country has ever seen. At any
rate the following spring and sum
mer of a long winter is usually bet
ter owing to the fact that such a win
ter rather stops a part of the steady
business and traffic all over the
country. We have not suffered any
more and possibly not as much from
severe weather as the East has. But
the back of the winter is gone and
probably we will have little more bad
weather. With the opening up of
the spring, the mining development
will resume all over this country, from
present indications. The rapchmen
are all looking ahead to a better sea-
son and more cultivated ground and
the chances are good that there will
be something done in the ditch line
on either side of the river. The ranch
men in this country are the same as
other places, commonly speaking, the
back bone of the country, and when
ever they have a good year it means
prosperity for every one in this val.
ley. The price of cattle is about nor
NAL again and the price of sheep and
wool at this time shows an indication
that it will go higher than ever and it
looks like nothing can stop them
short of an earthquake, such as we
had a year ago last fall, and even that
won't stop them very much. The
price of land has nearly doubled in
the past four years and it's going to
double a good many times in the
next four if the demand keeps on in
creasing.

Imperial Opening

The opening of the Imperial Hotel
held on Wednesday night was among
the leading events Of Grangeville
society for years and also marks an
epoch in the annals of the business
circles Of this city. An elegant five
course dinner was served at the ban
quet and the ball was held in the
spacious room formerly occupied by
Messrs. Vollmer and Scott directly
across the street, A large crowd was
in attendance, practically every bust
ness house in the city being represent
ed. An excellent musical program
was provided by the Riggs orchestra.
Lack of time and space prevents a
detailed account Of the noteworthy
affair but suffice to say the manner in
which the opening was conducted has
elected many compliments for Land
lord and landlady Tambylin.
