Grizzlies, Mountain
Sheen "HOLdinQ OLUn"

Grizzly bears, mountain sheep and
mountain goats are just about "hold-
ing their own" in numbers In Montana
Bob Cooney, Helena director Of the
restoration division of the state game
commission said recently.
Although Lewis and Clark in 1905
found the grizzly in abundance all the
way up the Missouri river from the
mouth OF the Yellowstone to the
mountains, they are now found,
Cooney said, only in the remotest
parts OF the Rockies and but three
states contain more than l0-Montana
Wyoming and Idaho.
A survey made by the state game
commission recently revealed an es-
tinated lis in the Sun River and
Flathead areas. the speaker said,
about equally divided between the
two sections.
Wild sheep and goats now appear in
only pitiful remnants OF their numbers
at one time. The Sun river area
probably contains the most sheep to
be found in Montana, an estimated
200.

Con Murphy Was Lost Person Hanged
In Montana Territory by the Vigiluntes

brother, after wiping away his tears
leaned over and kissed Murphy on the
lips, saying, Goodbye, brother"
A few moments later Murphy was
no more. There he was hung. the rope
being stretched across one Of the
strong beams used In the bridge con-
struction Immediately thereafter word
was heralded throughout the city OF
Helena that Con Murphy had been
met on the road to Helena and hanged
py the Vigilantes.
Young Redmond Released
That night Murphy's brother was
given a hearing by the Vigilante COM
mittee at its meeting place in the sec
ond story Of a building on Broadway
and was ordered 70 move on. The fol-
lowing morning he was loaded onto a
Pacific train, enroute TO his home in
Missouri. Word subsequently reached
Helena that the old mother Of these
boys, upon learning Of the sad ending
Of her elder son. died Of q broken
heart.
This was the last Of the effective
work done in the territory by the
VigilanteS as an organization.
The true name Of the principal
character Of this story was John Red
mond After entering upon his career
Of crime, he preferred the name Of
his brother Con-" and so having de-
cided to adopt an alias, thereafter
went by the name Of Con Murphy.
He started from his home In Hannibal,
Missouri with good intentions, and in
the spring Of 1876 was at Bismarck,
North Dakota, at which place he hired
out as a bull whacker IN the service
Of the government troops encamped
at that point. At the time he accepted
such employment he did not know
whether he would be sent with the
expedition proposed to be made into
the Indian OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
the command Of General Custer. or a
similar organization commanded by
General Terry. When General Custer
departed with his command. Murphy
was left behind, later going into the
valley Of the Yellowstone river with
General Terry's party. While held in
prison at Helena at one time, and
narrating his life and experiences, he
lamented not having come west with
General Custer. He said that If it had
only fallen to his lot, to have done
so he would have saved the people Of
Montana considerable amount Of trou-
BILE and expense, and he would have
died a patriot.

DR. Edward S. Lowe Sc lieutenant
