Custer, announced they would file an
act for exempting real estate from tax
alton up to certain point.
Members of the upper chamber also
indicated they would lose little time in
the introduction of legislation, as two
joint resolutions and notices of two
measures were announced.
That the Montana legislature will
have chance to take stand on cash
payment of the soldier certificates was
contained in resolution offered by
Sen. John Oliver of Carter county, urg-
ing congress to so act. Another joint
resolution offered by him asks for con-
gressional action OH an old-age pension
system.
Senators Melton, Beaverhead. and
Parkin, Gallatin, noticed an act to
clarity present laws on the appoint
ment of legislators to state office, and
Senator Holton, Garfield, and Oliver
announced they would sponsor another
relating to the payment of delinquent
| taxes.
Senator Melton said the bill noticed
by himself and Parkin would provide
that mo senator or representative shall,
during the term of which he is elected,
be eligible to appointment to any state
office, or be given employment by the
state in any of its offices and depart
ments, or administrative boards"
The bill would further provide a
legislator could not hold another state
office, should he resign his seat in the
assembly until his term has expired.
The tax measure amendment to the
1888 special legislation, noticed in the
senate by Holton of Garfield, and Oil
yer OF Carter, would extend the time
for making a contract with county
commissioners for the installment pay
ment of delinquent taxes to Jan. l, 1885.
and would provide that no interest be
charged on unpaid balances
The original measure provides for
the payment of penalties and inter-
est.
A comprehensive investigation of the
financial status of the state of Mon
tana, of the county governments, of
the educational system, of the means of
raising revenue and of the entire taxa
ton system of the commonwealth was
proposed.
The resolution, authorizing creation
Of joint House and Senate committee,
with full power to make a thorough
investigation and with $4,000 at its
disposal, was proposed by Rep. Merle

struggled to get up, and stopped.
Reynolds hitched his wheelers to the
front hobs once more, put his. bed on
the hobs and went after his runaway
horses. They let him come up to them,
and he untangled them and brought
them in. One wagon was out Of COM
mission. He went on to the Ned Hill
ranch, thirteen miles from White Sui
phur Springs. Here he found that
Spencer, knowing the snow was gone,
had come out and left wagon for him.
He reached the Hill ranch after dark,
spent the night there, and the next
morning took the wagon back with him
to reload his freight: BY noon he was
back at the Hill ranch. He ate din
ner, and got to White Sulphur Springs
with his five barrels of whisky and a
cases of coal oil that night. The days
and nights had become blurred sue

alton and brief spells of rest. He has

ing story OF trip he
made for Spencer, Mayn and Heit-
man of White Sulphur Springs.
After one term as undersheriff of
Meagher country, MIR. Reynolds went
to work for Price and Price, builders
and contractors at White Sulphur
Springs. He and his cousin, Bert Brad
ley, helped build the old Springs hotel,
where Reynolds friend and one-time
cowboy, Tommy" Meixell, now lives

and shingled the roof. They worked
me too hard" Reynolds says. They set
me to ripping two-inch lumber with a
hand saw, and that is hard work.
Spencer came in one day, and stood
looking at us from the doorway. At
last he said, 7 want mule skinner
dropped that rip-saw as though it were
redhot, and answered, I'm your man."
That is the way Mr.. Reynolds left a
job he didn't like for one he liked bet
ter, and began hauling freight for
Spencer, Mayn and Hoffman.
A late, heavy snow fell that spring.
Reynolds was starting for Livingston
for a load Of freight, and Spencer took
the precaution to telegraph ahead to
find out whether there was snow in
the Yellowstone valley. Back came the
answer by way of Townsend, plenty of
snow" Reynolds started out with a
six-horse team, two No. S Common
Sense" hobs, and a long wagon box.
Twelve miles out of Livingston the
ground was bare.
He detached the front hobs, loaded
his bed, hooked up his six horses, and
rode the hobs over bare ground into
Livingston. He went up Main street

tive got to-" Reynolds told her. "I'm
all in, and my horses can't go any
farther. ..>:. -.
He explained who he was, and Mrs
Lincoln got him supper and let him bed
down in the loft. It was a cold night
and he was none too comfortable. His
boots froze on his feet, so that he had
to pound them with a stick in the
morning to soften them till he could
get them off. After breakfast he hook
ed up the bob and went after his lead
wagon and running gear. He brought
them in, and the next thing was to
transfer the whisky barrels to the wag-
on again. Juggling whisky barrels was
becoming anything but fun. He roll
ed one barrel against the rear wagon
wheel and heaved it over the side, but
the effort nearly floored him. He saw
stars floating before his eyes, and al
most lost his balance. He saw dead
lift of four more whisky barrels was
out of the question.
He set the forward hobs against the
end of the wagon, propped both end
gates of the wagons against the hobs,
and made a loading platform. Grasp
ing the barrel by the chime, he found
it comparatively easy to roll the barrel
into the wagon. 1t was just sliding
over the edge of the endgate into the
wagon when down came the hobs, and
down went the endgates, the barrel
and Reynolds. Part of the time he was
on top and part OF the time the barrel
was.
He got up, secured lasso rope, and
lashed the hobs to the wagon, replaced
the endgates, and loaded the four bar
rels with no further trouble.

gone fast, and the ground was bare. - p !,
When he came to his abandoned bobs;
he left the long wagon box on the pr
airie, and loaded the heavy rear: hobs
weighing close to-. 500 pounds. As he
approached the divide, the snow show
ed again, and by the time he got to the
top, near the old Hank Potter ranch,
the horses couldn't pull the wagons.
They were stalled. Reynolds unloaded
the hobs, rolled the whisky barrels off
into the snow, unloaded wagon bed
and got it on the hobs, loaded up the
whisky, and pulled out, leaving his
lead wagon in the snow on the high
divide. With the hobs he got as far as
the Lincoln ranch in the Sixteen Mile
canyon.
He was worn out, and his team ex-
hausted. Ordinarily there would have

were turned out into Miles corral, he
began to make inquiry whether Spenc-
er, Mayn and Hoffman had any wag-
ons in town. They had-a carload Of
new wagons standing on the Northern
Pacific tracks. Reynolds went to the
car-there wasn't much red tape in
those days-got out two wagons, set
them up, got them ready for the road,
and loaded his freight. He had five
barrels of whisky in the lead wagon,
and AZ cases of coal oil in the trail
wagon. He threw the hobs up on top
