az ST. Paul, Mimi, and an attorney
from the Attorney Generals office

That local business men are
anxious to avoid any show Of par
tisanship in the Wheeler case was
indicated when the Commercial Ciuo
declined a request that free office
gpaca be provided in their quarters

ing Senator Wheeler.
Following a special meeting OF
the Commercial Club, the Federal
district attorney, who made the re.
quest. was advised that out OF
courtesy to Senator Wheeler 1t was
deemed lnwise to provide the space.
Senator Wheeler's supporters had
interpreted the move as an attempt
to create the impression that the
moral support OF the business mems
organization was with the proseeu'
ton.
Gordon Campbell, whom Wheeler
Il alleged to have represented be-
fore the Interior Department, is I
pioneer in the exploitation Of Mon
tana oil fields.

New Residence Going Up

Building began much earlier than
usual in Bozeman this season, and
already Is new residences have been
built or are now in course Of ~construc-
ton in the city. This is only a start
er, but it is a pretty good one, con-
sidering that spring has not fairly
opened. The houses built in Boze-
man differ somewhat from those in
other cities, as here they are built by
persons who occupy them as their
homes as o as they are completed,
while in many other places large num-
.bers of houses are built for rent and
remain vacant for months, thus Civ,
ing the town a deserted appearance.
Some houses r built to rent in Boze-
man, it is true, but as a rule, they
are occupied, there being but few
vacant houses in the city at present
and now only those which have been
occupied by the families of farmers
who moved to town for the winter
in order to obtain better school IA
cilities for their children. The fu-
tire capital bids fair to have quite
4 Lille building boom during the COM
ing season.

DR.. Plummer, the veterinarian,
performed a very fine and intricate
operation upon a fine horse belonging

day this week. The operation is
known to the profession as trachar-

come so badly swollen that it was
scarcely able to breathe when the
doctor was called and without relief
would surely have choked to death in
a short time. The doctor made an
incision IN the neck into the windpipe
into which he inserted a small silver
tube through which the animal now
breathes freely. The throat, or
larnyx, is being treated to reduce it
to it's normal condition when the tube
will be removed, the aperture sewed

tributed among the farmers in differ

was quite reticent about the matter
and left the impression that it
would not be built this season and
in fact some newspapers had pub
lished mere than the facts warrant

be Of great benefit to the entire Gal
latin valley, and would no doubt be
a paying investment.

Fractured a Leg


Mrs. Denny Driscoll, who is one Of
the pioneer residents Of Tirnherlina.
met with a serious accident on Thurs
day of last week which will confine
her to her bed for several weeks at
least. She had recently removed to
Bozeman and rented Mr.. Fridley's
house, corner of Templar avenue and
Babcock street. Desiring to go to the
depot, she hired a horse from Mr..
Davies livery stable to ride, and when
she mounted the animal he acted
badly and threw her to the ground
with such force that she sustained a
compound fracture of one limb near
the ankle. Drs. Higgins and Gragg
were summoned and reduced the
fracture, and the unfortunate woman
was removed to her home in Timber
line on Saturday, and is doing as we'll
as could be expected under the cir
cumstances.

Fire was discovered in the interior

done. The fire is supposed to have
caught from the furnace in which fire
was kept during the night for the
purpose Of drying malt, which was
in the room at the time for that pur-
pose. The malt was so damaged by
water that it will be a complete loss,
