hoping that it might be held to be
of sufficient importance to induce
them to spare his life"
| was under the impression that
such a promise was made, but that
the coming of the four members of
the Virginia Vigilantes, who arriv-
ed at midnight, with new informa-
ton, caused the promise to be bro
ken, and Wagner hung on the same
day that Pizanthia was killed. He
met his tragic end bravely, and
won the respect, il not the regret,
of those who executed him.
Literary men were not plentiful
in Bannack, and the only two in
attendance at the examining con-
ference mentioned, so far as [ can
recall, were my father, and Colonel
Sanders. AS my father did not act
as leader at any of these meetings
simply as adviser-it may rea-
sonably be inferred that the liter
airy gentleman who brought things
to a climax on this occasion, was
Colonel Sanders, and the method
used to obtain Wagner's confess
sion is like what he would have
employed.
The day following this confer
ence the four men from Virginia
City completed the organization of
the Bannack branch of the Vigil
antes, which made it possible to ar
rest and execute the Bannack road
agents. Before this the relative
strength of the two parties was un-
certain. The road agents were or
sanized, and those opposed to them
not. Then, too, Plummer's
position as sheriff gave him and
lis band a great advantage. His
apparent unconcern for his own
led others to believe that

GOES WILD
ATTACKS KEEPER
GREAT FALLS PARK SUPERIN-
TENDENT HAS NARROW ES-
CAPE FROM ANIMAL
Man Stuns Buck With Heavy Club
and Saves Frank Reimer's Life;
Captive Buck Went Wild Two
Years Ago and Killed Doe.

The s~ix-year-old Whitehall buck
deer in the west deer paddock at
Gibson park at Great Falls has gone
loco, and made a desperate attempt
to kill the park superintendent,
Frank Reimer, recently, the latter's
life being saved only by desperate
work on the part of former Alderman
Sleevy with a large hardwood club.
The male deer generally go loco
for a time during rutting season and
the Whitehall vas raging up and
down the fence to such an extent
that Mr.. Reimer concluded to put
him in tho house and entered the
paddock for that purpose, he and Mr..
Sleevy driving the animal in. As Mr..
Reimer turned at the door to close it,
the deer sprang and knocked him to
the ground and began goring and
trampling him. Reimer, though a
powerful man, was helpless. Mr..
Sleevy had a hardwood club and
rushed in beating the deer over the
head and stunning him with several
blows, which gave Mr.. Reimer "a
chance to crawl away; the Infatuated
animal charged Mr.. Sleevy several
times, but the club proved effective
and both men got out of the paddock.
Besides having his clothing almost
torn from him and suffering many
bruises and small cuts, Mr.. Reimer
was gored in the right leg above the
knee, suffering a cut four inches
long and four inches deep. A ply
was summoned and the wound
attended to.
The Whitehall buck is still raging
the paddock and the public is
to keep away from him.
Should his rage continue he will be
led, or placed in the paddock house
or a time until he becomes his mild
md gentle self again.
The big blacktail buck went wild
wo years ago and killed the mother

omeone every day during the month
November. He escaped the pad

fforts of several men with clubs to

After F~eatherstun had brought
IN his man, he took him to a hotel.
F~eatherstun was not we'll known
by the people of Bannack, but they
did know Dutch John, and a com
pany of them a little later in the
evening took him from the strang-
er who brought him in; thinking
F~eatherstun was himself a road
agent. The mistake was rectified
when they heard Featherstun ask
for HOWE, saying that the latter,
he feared, had been killed.
The news, rapidly circulated
that Dutch John was a robber and
a murderer, barred every door to
him, and HOWE and Featherstun
were forced to hunt for some place
where he could be safely kept
through the night. This they found
in an empty cabin on Yankee Flat.
But it is not likely that any of the
three rested we'll that night; the
captors fearing a rescue, and the
captive hoping for one.
Before being taken to the cabin
on Yankee Flat, John was taken
to another cabin, and there exam
lned.. He promised to confess, but
when 1t came to the point, failed
keep his promise, it was thought
gain time. Prof. Dimsdale says
of this, "The leader in the move

WHEN REIGN OF HENRY PLUMMER WAS
NEARING ITS END; CAPTURE OF WAGNER

the road agents outnumbered the
better element of the community.
Plummer was notified that the
Virginia City men were headed in
his direction, and Immediately set
afloat the rumor that they were
coming to arrest not only him, but
several of the leading citizens of
Bannack. One of these, George
Chrisman, vas greatly frightened
by this report; the more so that
Plummer had talked with him on
the subject and condoled with him.
Filled with apprehension, Chris
man came to my father and asked
to be protected. | never shall for
get how agitated he appeared, and
with ample reason. My father as
sured him that his reputation was
too good to connect him in any way
with Plummer's gang, and he left
our house comforted.
Before concluding this sketch of
Dutch John, something should be
said of the remarkable daring of
his captor, Neil HOWE. HOWE was
not a large man, but on the con-
trary rather understood. There
was nothing in his appearance to
indicate superior strength, yet he
took John singlehanded, after hav-
ing been refused assistance by
others.
Realizing that if John must be
taken, he must do it, HOWE called
to the robber to "hold on a min
ute" John, who was riding away,
turned half round, and HOWE
started toward him empty handed.
AS HOWE drew near him, John had
him in range of his gun, and could
easily have killed him. There was
something about HOWE, before
the ruffian quailed, and
when HOWE commanded Give me
your gun, and get off your mule"
he instantly obeyed.
The refusal of the parties HOWE
to help him take John shows
how completely terror of the road
dominated, and made the
question of their overthrow prob
,ematic.

PLANS FEDERAL
RELIEF FOR FARM
FOUR STATES INCLUDING MON
TANA, ARE FOR LIVESTOCK
LOANS FOR FARMER.
Will Ask Government to Distribute
$4,000 in Loans for Purchase of
Hogs, Sheep, Cattle and Poultry.

A plan of federal farm relief which
it is claimed will put the farmer on
a sounder financial basis than he has
enjoyed for a number of years, was
evolved at a meeting of representa-
tives of the four spring wheat states
held in Minneapolis, and which was
attended by w. A. Selvidge, presi-
dent of the Montana Development
association.
The plan is the one originated by
President John Lee Coulter of the
North Dakota Agricultural college
and the program was unanimously
adopted and endorsed by all the rep
resentatives present, among them
several state governors. The pro-
gram for the four states of Montana,
North and South Dakota and Mime
sofa, calls for the distribution of $685.
100000 by the government equally
between the four STAKES, the money to
be used in the purchasing of cattle,
hogs, sheep, chickens and other live
stock.
Limited to $1,000
No farmer is to be allowed more
than a $1,000 loan, says Mr.. Selvidge,
according to the terms of the plan.
Security for the loan will be the stock
itself and its progeny and the loan
will extend yer a period of five
years with interest at 6 per cent. 1t
is planned to introduce a bill in con-
gress at the present session for this
purpose.
"The entire purpose hinges upon
the proposition that the farmer must
grow his own living on the farm"
says the president. During the war,
the government called for the rails
ing of more wheat and rye to the
near exclusion of all other products
and the upward climb of the DIVERSE
fication line was not halted, but suf-
fered a decided decline. Since the
war the buying power of the farmer
has materially decreased in terms of
wheat per bushel price, while the di-
versification line has just managed
to hold its own.
1T is estimated that for this rea-
the average farmer who has been
wheat in these four states
has been losing about SIS per acre
each year since the war, or about
$500 a year. In all this time, he has
been purchasing the greater part Of
the necessary commodities to sustain
life, instead of growing them upon
his farm. This, it is estimated, costs
him about S20O nar year
Saves $40 Yearly
'If he is allowed this government
oan, making it possible for him to
grow his own living on the farm, he
taves $40 the first year, even if he
'etires his loan at the rate of 5000
ZACH year for four years. This $40
lsed as a working margin will ma
aid the farmer the first year
md by the end of the five years he
las retired his loan, has the stock
nd its progeny paid for, is making
is own living on the farm, and has
is grain crop receipts clear.
This plan of Investigation would
egin by furnishing the farmer, first
nth his livelihood, and within five
ears bring him to a point of per-
lament agriculture now enjoyed by
in these four states, outside,
