BERRY PASSES LIE

D. c. Official Accused by Peo-

BALTIMORE, November 6.-Peo-

Berry of Washington, president of
the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company, attempted to influ-

company. The charge was made be-
fore the public service commission
yesterday in the present rate hearing.
Berry did not deny the accusation,
although he had just shouted It's a
lie at Maloy when the latter said
Berry believed he had bought" news
paper editors by liberal purchases of
advertising space
Maloy continued: Berry is a fix

that all men are crooked, he has sent

case-people in his pay. He knew

that Maloy proposed to the company

The squabble arose when Maloy put

ances which Indians were causing
among the early settlers, traders
and trappers.
At Miles City, Mr.. Mccoy on his
recent trip to the state was able to
sit before a table lavishly served with
d~elicacies, near scenes where he
formerly was forced to roast mule
and horse meat over a crude camp
fire. This was his only means of sub
sistance at n time in 1865. The
Indian had been unable to cope with
the deadly gun fire of the eastern
~intruders and had used Sioux strate-
gy in driving all wild game ahead of
them in an attempt to starye the mill
tary detachment.
The Twelfth Missouri cavalry was
scheduled to meet the forces of Col
onel Wade at the mouth of the Pow
der river, but was forced to retrace
its course of march when Colonel
Wade's command was not found at
this point. Fort Conner. later named
Fort Reno, on the Powder river, was
finally reached and it was at this
post that the cavalry forces secured
provisions.
When the expedition against the
Indians was started, the wagon
trains were Joined at Omaha. The
cavalry forces of which Mr.. Mccoy
was a member had begun their jour
ney from st. Louis. Buffalo Bill''
was selected to guide the outfit and
he rode ahead of the column. No
trouble with Indians was encounter
ed during the entire trip to Montana.
Mr.. Mccoy has many thrilling ex-
periences to relate concerning his life
as a pioneer on the Western Plains.

Duties population was about

Anaconda was a city yet to be. The
population of the entire territory
was something over $4,000.
There was one poor orphan
goat in Montana in 80. AT
any rate the enumerators found but
one, and shortly after the count
was completed the e~agle-eyed funny
men of the eastern press spied out
that lonesome William and pro-
ceeded to have fun with him. They
wrote PONIES on him; they lied
about him with joyous abandon
printed his picture and an al
likeness of the lady from
Erin who owned him. One ro-
mancer had Billy stampeding a
of buffalo and causing con-
sternation in a Sioux camp, ending
the wild career of one eventful day
by butting a famous Sioux chief,

the turbid waters of the Yellow

Veteran of The Early
Indian Wars Views
Old Montana Scenes

Fifty-nine years ago, Roger Nc
Coy of Craig, Mo-, was treking his
way across the expanse of plains
and rolling prairies between the
Mississippi river and Montana. Re-
Gently this pioneer, now II, mo-
tored through Montana cities on
his way east from the Pacific coast,
where he has been spending the
past year.
1t was near Miles City and other
in southeastern Montana that
Mr.. Mccoy spent his early life as a
pioneer in a country which was so
new to white men that the Indians
were still employing bows and ar
and spears as weapons. In those
days when meat was needed, buffalo
provided that necessity for the lard
er. There we're no flour mills or
groceries stores where provisions
could be purchased.
Mr.. Mccoy came to this state with
the Twelfth Cavalry of Missouri.
This detachment had recently been
released from service in the civil war
and was sent west to settle griev-

t~1nguished consideration in the best
language of the letter writing de
partment of the government.
They didn't petition, but came
back in a few days with a howl
about passengers arriving on
steamboats, at Fort Benton. So I
wrote Tom Healy, the Fort Ben
ton e%numerator, to let the derelicts
go in peace to Gallatin.
IS. c. fitzpatrick was one of the
enumerators at Helena I do not re-
member the name of the other one.
Naturally Helena made a growl for
more e-numerators and insisted up
on it. There was a meeting in the
First National bank and | was
called in for roasting purposes, but
] had interviewed my enumerators
and found that they needed no help,
so I gave the crowd in the rear of
the bank a cold refusal and was
%thereupon duly threatened with
evils many and dire.
"Then Butte started things.
They wanted more enumerators
and they notified me in vigorous
Montanese that they intended to
have them forthwith. They kept
messages whirling at me 50 fast

When General G. S. Warren fin
ally stopped to spit and take a
breath I asked the other men
who had met me when the stage
stopped what grievances they had
to present.
"They did not wait for a second
invitation, but all broke loose at
once, and More Men was the bur-
den of their song. I hunted up Mr..
Kemper and his fellow enumerator
and they assured me that they
would have Butte counted up and
have some time to spare. | APP

figures compiled by the interior de-

Hugh McQuaid, One of Montana's
Pioneer Newspaper Men, and Who
Took the Census in 1881.
Buford, on the Missouri, and there
was a wire to that point over a
roundabout way. I got a message
to them asking for the name of a
reliable man to take the census, and
when they sent in the name, | wired
it to General Walker and asked him
to arrange with the Dawson man to
report direct to Washington, as he
could get his reports in there more
quickly than he could get them to
me.
81 wish I could remember that
e~numerator's name. | fancy his
adventures on that lonely job of
census taking would make mighty
interesting reading. It was a dan
gerous trip drought the Siuox
country and among the Crows and
other hostile Indian tribes and the
meager stipend was well earned by
that brave adventurer. I know of
at least one hair-breadth escape
that he had when he had to swim a
stream in the darkness of night and
make a great detour to escape the
vigilant, scalp-hunting Sioux.
HE had to follow the Missouri
river and take in the wood hawks
as the men were called who cut
wood and piled it on the banks of
the Missouri for the use of the
plying up and down the
stream between Sioux City and
Fort Benton. He gathered in the
trappers and others of the van
guard of civilization. When he had
finished he had a population of 80
to show for his trouble, and [ am
inclined to believe he made a clean
sweep in the counting.
General Walker wired me late
in June that the Dawson county re
turns were in and were in excellent
but I did not hear from the
Dawson enumeration until weeks
the census work was done,
when he made a modest report and
never complained of his hardships
lor kicked because his county was
than some of the New Eng
and states.
"Sheriff Tom Irvine of Custer

,art of the country. Tom had

older he wanted to obey orders,

Iidn't see how he could report

&C. P. Blakely was one of the en-
nerators for Gallatin county. The
nbition of all towns in the terri
Try was to show a large popula-
on, and for that purpose the pre-
ailing idea was that more enum-
'ators were necessary probably on
e basis that the more counters the
ore would be counted. The late
homas R. Edwards, of Bozeman.
ng a warm personal and political
lend of mine, wired me that if /
d not give them more enumerat-
s, they would get up a petition

him to sign my name
the very top of the petition, and "
