T H E M O N T A N I A N a ubli*hed Every Friday at Chateau,Teton Co, Mont. S. M. CORSON, Editor and Proprietor. P rotection and S ound M on ey . OFFICIAL PAPER OF TETOH COUNTY FRIDAY, FE B , 15, 1901. So far as the senatorial contest goes Maginnis isn’t in it withMacGinmss. T he tailors of Paris are on a strike for an eight-hour day and for a redress of many grievances. Over 100 firms are in volved. ¿Vins. N ation is determined that the prohibition laws of Kansas shall be en forced even if she herself has to smash every other law on the statute books of tho state. A t the awful Galveston storm all but two of the churches in that great city were wrecked and yet not a shingle was ripped from a brewery. What would Mr«, say to this? T he Rosebud county bill which paesed the legislature- several day« ago ha« been signed by the governor and is now a law. Rosebud was taken from the western part of Yellowstone county. O ne of Mr«. Nation’s strongest sup porters in her saloon-smashing business is a Mrs. Sheriff. With a hatchet in her hand and a Sheriff by her side Mrs. Nation seems to fear nothing. A bill has been introduced in the leg islature by Representative Newton for feiting to the state the $30,000 known as the bribery fund. The bill provides for the distribution of the §30,000 among th« public schools of the state. Representative Albert D. Sha^v, late commander-in-chief of the G. A. R. died Monday morning at his room in the Riggs house iu Washington. He repre sented th« Watertown, N. Y. district in congress. H« was 59 years of age and a veteran of the civil war. T he spirit of lawlessness is growing. A few nights ago a number of women, the benighted followers of the infamou« Dowie, undertook to smash a drug store iu Chicago. Of course it is easy for a lot of fanatios to argue themselves into the belief that drugs are harmful and that therefore they have a right to smash drug stores. * E. J. Osgood had the misfortune to break his left leg Tuesday afternoon at his ranch on Willow Creek. He was en gaged iu cutting out cattle when his horse fell with him breaking the leg about six inches above the ankle. Mr. Osgood was brought in by Tom Connolly who was with him at the time of tho accident. Dr. Brooks was called and under his care the injured man is getting aloug ns well as < could be expected. THE ADVICE OF DUDLEY DUBOSE. The United States oourt of appeals on Monday last found Alexander MoKeazie 'guilty of contempt in two cases and sen tenced him to serve one year in the San Francisco county jail. These are the two cases in which it is alleged that Attorney DuBose advised hi^ client, McKenzie, to diBobey the writ of supersideas issued by Judge Merrow directing him as receiver to turn over money and gold dust in his possession to the owners. 'Judge Ross who delivered the opinion of the court referred iu scathing terms to . ✓ * Judge Noye« and th’e' manner in which the affairs were conducted at Nome. He says: “ Tiie circumstance« attending the appointment ol'-a receiver in these cases, however, and his conduct after as well ai before the appeintment, as shown by the record and evidence, so far f r o » impressing'us with the sin cerity of the pretension that his re fusal te obey the writ out of this oourt was based upon the advise of his counsel that they were void, sat isfy us that it was intentional and de liberate, and in furtherance of the high-handed and grossly illegal pro ceedings initiated almost as soon a« Judge Noyes and McKenzie had set foot on Alaskan territory at Nome, and which may be safely and fortu- \ nately said to have no parallel in the jurisprudence of this country. And it speaks well for the good, sober sense of the people gathered on that remote and barren shore and that de pended aol«ly upon the courts for the correction for the wrongs thus perpe trated among and against them, which always may be depended upon to right, sooner or later, wrongs prop erly brought before them.” H O U S E J O I N T M E M O R I A L . Hon. W. D. Jones of this county has introduced a memorial in the house ask ing that congress have surveyed and cause to be thrown open to settlement certain lands in Teton county, as follows: HOUSE JOINT MEMORIAL NO. 3. To the Honorable the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States in Congress assembled : Whereas, Thera are now settled upon a portion of the .Lewis and Clarke forest reserve in the State of Montana, and within the limits of Teton County, eight een bona-fide settlers who settled in said county and upen the lands now forming a part of aaid forest reserve prior to the time said lands were segregated from the public domain and formed into said for est reserve, and elver since said time and now are residing upon said lands; that they have substantial improvements upou said lands and the same constitute their only home aud place of abode; that by reason of the fact that the said lauds were so segregated and placed in said re serve said settlers are unable to obtain title to said lands, and \Whereas Said land« so settled upon by settlers is grazing land, no part of which is covered by timber; tlial said set tlers reside upon what would be known, if surveyed, as townships 22,23, 24,25,26, 27,28 and 29 north, range 9 west of Mon tana meridian; that all of said lands con tained in said townships are devoid of timber, save and excepta scrubby growth in a few and exceptional places on said lands, and are fit and suitable for stock grazing. Therefore be it resolved, That we,|your memorialists, the Seventh Legislative Assembly of the State of Montana, earn estly pray and petition the Congress of the United States to cause such lands to b6 surveyed and thrown open to settle ment and become a part of the public do main, subject to entry under the general land laws, and to enact such legislation as will result at an early period m bring ing about and effecting the result herein contained and indicated. Resolved, That our senators and repre sentative at Washington áre hereby in structed to use all honorable means to accomplish the deBirod legislation, and be it further Resolved, That the Secretary of State of th« State of Montana be, and he is hereby instructed to send a copy of this joint memorial to our senators and rep- iesentative at Wjashimgtono, D. C. Tke lvansas W a y . The case against Mrs. Carrie Nation for smashing the property of the “ Senate’» saloon in Topeka wee dismissed last week on motion of City Attorney Gregg on the ground that there is no ordinance cover ing th« question of destruction of per sonal property. When the motion was granted Mrs. Nation shouted “amen!” Then after thanking Mr. Gregg «he arose and turn ing to she eould face the women who had crowded th« court room began sing ing “ Praise God From Whom All Bless ings Flow.” Her followers took up th« straiu and the courtroom was converted into a praise meeting. Jndge Magraw commanded that the disturbance cease, but the chief of police interrnpted with, “Go ahead, ladi«s and sing all you want to,” and they did, breaking out with the words “ G o d B« With You Till We Meet Again.” □ I n most states judge is presumed to maintain order in his court and to re quire court officers to obey his mandates. Rut this presumption does not hold good it seems in Kansas. Doa’t Tobacco Spit and Smoke Tear Life Away.

BURTON AND FARMINGTON ‘ ' r , •\r'r. d i s p a t c h e s . - r~ * Burton and Farmington districts have enjoyed a prosperous open winter so far. Los« of life among stock has been small. Our schools are doing good work and are well patronized. Miss Weaver haB the west end Bohool. She is a young lady of exceptional ability, and possessed of fine genial traits of charapter. Miss Anderson in the north school has won the hearts of pupils andpatrous and air other«. Wli6eler Cole of No. 5 has a large en thusiastic school, and all ‘ pupils seem to be progressing rapidly. Mrs. Nasset has a sister visiting her this winter who is also a teacher. Miss Cise is a very prepossessing young lady and we hope she will become one of Teton’s teachers. Mr. Rogers has made a fino residence out of the Burton store building. Tellef’son k Bollrud are doing a good business in the new store at Farmington. Both gentlemen have the entire respect and confidence of the bench. F. A. West and family have moved into the Burton residence and are now very comfortable. Martin Monson has a fine flock of sheep and is improving hi« ranch in many ways. Myrtle Franklin was home last week on a visit. She likes her work a« gov erness very muok and we are not sur prised that her.efforts are appreciated. Several parties are putting up ice this week. Mr. and Mrs. Franklin and Mr, and Mr«. West planned a surprise for Mr. and Mrs. Fdrley on the 40th anniversary of their wedding day, and last Sunday took them unawares as it were. It was a very pleasant occasion. The Burton and Farmington Literary deserves speoial mention in this dispatch- It was thought at first that there were not young people enough on the bench to make it worth while to reorganize. However they have been held every week and with good results. We find we have a fine lot of young people aud those who call themselves old are as young as any. Every Tuesday evening sees a good pro gram presented, and some interesting topic discussed in a fairly able manner. The next meeting is at School District No. 5, Burton, and all are invited. The Burtonites expect to give a social in a few week« when they will present a good program and a good supper. Watch for the date. M R e x . The claim of {fiber cough medicines to be as good as Chamberlain’s are effect ually set at rest, in the following testi monial of Mr. C. D. Glass, an employe of Bartlett & Dennis Go., Gardiner, Me. He says: “I had kept adding to a cold and a cough iu the winter of 1897, trying every cough medicine I heard of without per manent help, until one day I was in the drag store of Mr. Houleban and he ad vised me to try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and offered to pay back my mon ey if I was not cured. My lungs and bronchial tubes were very sore at this time, but I was completely cured by this remedy, and have since always turned to it when I got a cold, and soon find relief. I also recommend it to my friends and am glad to say it is the best of all cough medioines.” For sale by C. H. Drake, druggist. B e a u t y Is B l o o d D e e p . Clean blood means a clean skin.

Dance on Funeral Ship, The action of the officers of the trans port Warren in allowing a danoe aboard the‘vessel in the harbor at Honolulu has raised a storm of protest which may reach to Washington. The Warren was a fun eral ship and carried flags at half mast throughout the voyage. Daring the dance an American physician and his wife were removed from the vessel for boisterous conduct. The offioersit scema did not object to tho dance bnt simply to boisterous conduct' that might disturb the d6ad. \ ' I N M E M O R I A 3 M C . • •.V.C- , . ‘ At the',time'of his death brief refer ences ohlyr^were made in T he M ontantan to Wilbnr Logan, . so .long and so well known here in Ghoteau.Facts neoessary to a proper obituary were known in part only, and consequently the notice was unduly brief. A friend sends the follow ing which will be read with interest by many who knew the deceased during the years ho lived here: •'“ Wilbur .. Carl Logan was born in Lydon, Ross county, Ohio, Dec. 10th 1877, and departed this life Jan. 5th, 1901, at Sand Coulee, Montana, aged 23 years and 23 days, after an illness of 24 days with typhoid fever. He came. with his parents to Montana in the spring of 1889. His father, Rev. George Logan, is a mem ber of the Montana conferanco of the Methodist Episcopal church and is now pastor at Sand Coulee. He spent five .years at Choteau, serving the full pastor ate according to Methodist rule at that time and left Choteau August, 1899. Wilbur was a devoted Christian; he gave his heart to God and united with the church at Cascade in April, 1892. For about two years he had been a student at the Montana Wesleyan university. At one time in writing home to his mother he said: S‘ \Ve have been haviug revival meetings here at the Bchool. I have jmst stepped out on the promises of the Lord J sbus Christ and swing olear of the world. I am able to stand up in the face of the world and sing salvation and testify of one who died for me.’ Thus showing how deeply interested he was on The sub ject of religion. The funeral services were held at the church in Sand Coulee, on Sunday Jas. Gtb, and were conducted by Her. W. W. Yan Orsdel, superintendent of the North Montana mission assisted by Rev. A. Rodger of Belt. Mr. Van Orsdel took for his text Rev. 7:13, and feelingly spoke of the sterling qualities of the deceased, and his ambition to acquire an education to fit him for an honorable life work, and drew lessonB therefrom that touched the hearts of all his hearers. He referred to his triumphant death, and of his being conoeious just before his departure, say ing he saw angels and his sister Jessie, who had preceded him to that beautiful home two years and a half before. In giving good-by to his parents and brothers tie continued to speak of the scene that was so' beautiful, and as he was attempting to describe the same the triumphant end came. Bro. Rodger also addressed the congregation i n , a very touching manner. The people of Sand Coulee showed their re«pect and' love for Wilbur by bringing numerous floral offerings, notic- ably among them being a large anchor fron\the Sunday School, and a beautiful wreath frem Mr«. Sullivan. The ehurch was filled by a sorrowing and sympa thetic audience. The singing was very appropriate to the occasion, the choir singing “Lead Kindly Light,” “Vital Spark,” better known as Pope’« Ode, “God’s Anvil” and “ Meet Me There.” Brother and Sister Logan have the sympathy of all who know them, both in and out of the church. Two years and a half ago his sister, Mrs. Pugsley, was buried from the church at Chotaau. A Bright, Howest Boy Wanted.
