The Montana Democratic Candidate Ma&s a Bad Breafc WOOL GROWERS WERE INSULTED. The Profits on Wool Too Higb, in the Estimation of Timothy. MOKE THAN THEY AKK WORTHY OF Heaping up Fortunes Because of Spe cial Privileges to Tax Tbelr Neighbors. Gbeat Falls, Mont., Oct. 24. The Great Falls Tribune, owned by Timothy E. Collins, the democratic candidate for governor, comes out with an editorial which has caused a sensation and is likely to prevent Collins receiving the vote of nbout every wool grower in Mon tana. It eays : "Even if the removal of the tariff should reduce the price to eleven cents, the price paid across the line in Canada, sheepmen would still make a large profit." It casts a reflec tion on the sheepman, saying that he soon heaps up a fortune, not because he is especially clever as a business man or because of his good methods or intelli gence, but because of his privilege to tax his neighbor, under the authority of the government. Furthermore, the article says they would make all "they are entitled to" without protection Many of the first business men of Great Falls got a start in the wool business and they, as' well as tfie sheepmen, de nounce the article in scathing terms, without, regard to party. They regard it as an insult, since this is the largest wool market in the state, 4,000,000 pounds having been shipped from here this season? FAIBVIEW LETTER. A Region Kick In Resources, and Adapted for Settlement. Special to The Chronicle. Faibview, Wasco Co., Oct. 22. As all settlements of Wasco county are invited to representation in The Chboxicle, perhaps a few lines from this might in the future bear some good results. This' location is commonly known as Dutch Flat. I-t is situated from seven to fourteen miles southwest of The Dalles, and has an elevation of from 1,500 to 1,800 feet above The Dalles, or 1,660 to 1,960 feet above tide water, with an area of 15,000 acres susceptible to cultivation producing grain of all kinds of the best quality. Timothy, red clover and alfalfa do well and vege tables of all description, and for corn I do not think.it can be beat in the state, yellow and white dent, King Philip and all kinds of sweet or sugar corn, and fruit of every kind. I venture to say, without . fear of contradiction, that I have seen the largest German and Hun garian pruneS here this season that I have ever seen in the state, and their appearance and fla'vor were nothing short of delicious. The samples which I send you with this are fair average samples of our blue Pearmain and Gravenstein apples, grown by my neigh bors Messrs. Jones and Nelson. I think that the moderation of the summer cli mate during the fruit season has a great deal to do with giving them the fine flavor. As for grapes this region cannot be be beaten., The population of this settlement , is, all told,, sixty ne souls, but we have quite a settlement one and a half to four miles west with about the same population, both well provided for a school, and would say to those looking for a home, you can do no better than to come up, here and locate, as there are a number of good places yet to be taken up. Wood and water are more conven ient than in any locality in . Wasco county, and we get a greater amount of rain fall than any other part of the country. There was sufficient rain here two or three weeks ago to start the plough, and in fact some have already sown and their grain is up and growing. We are so located that all the showers which meet and scatter in the mount ains south and west of us always send a portion to us. Lumber for . building is plentiful. . Five to eight miles to a good saw -mill, and if we ever get an open river there will not be an acre of vacant land in this region long, being so close to the market, the soil of such fine qual ity and the temperature of the climate so delightful and healthy. This . section in the near future will send to the , mar kets the" finest fruits in Warpo ennntv. , as it has already done in the line of hay and wheat. Mr. W. w. Ubist told me this moraine that his wheat weighed at the Diamond mills the highest per bushel of any wheat that had arrived at the mill, and it must bave been good, as he got the top price of the market, sixty-four cents, and ft also gained one per cent, in weight over the average. R. F. Wickham. ISetting on the Result. A New York dispatch eays the betting on the result of the election is unusually backward this year. In former cam paigns a few weeks before the election large sums of money were wagered and the betting was" hot and interesting. This year there have been only a few really large bets. At present the betting on the general results is even, neither side appearing confident enough to give odds. There have been a few bets, how ever, where the odds were slightly in favor of Cleveland. Last Thursday Alex Ogilvie, a racing man, bet $5,000 even on Harrison. The other end of the bet was taken by a Philadelphia syndicate. Ogilvie is now offering a bet from $1,000 to $5,000 that Harrison will have a ma jority of at least 50 electoral votes. "Buck," the well-known " Kentucky horse-breeder, bet $2,500 to $2,200 Thurs day, at the St. James hotel, that Cleve land would carry New York. Diss ton, the wealthy Philadelphia saw manufac turer, is said to have $10,000 in the hands of a New York friend to be placed on Harrison when the proper time ar rives. " Pronounced Insane. Victobia, B. C. Captain Delaveron of the Russian ship Zadiakias, who has been making seizures of sealers, is said to have been pronounced insane by the governor of Bering island. He is "also said to have been discharged from the Russian navy. ' Many sealing men wel comed this information as throwing a flood of light upon the situation, and others are inclined to be skeptical. They say that finding its position unten able, the Russian government has ig nominously shifted tfie blame to the captain's shoulders and pronounced him insane to avoid international difficulty. Upon one point both parties agree, that the information from the governor of Bering island being true, the government of the czar cannot avoid making restitu tion in full to the sealers. I The Chicago Postofflce. I Chicago, Oct. 24. Postmaster-Gen. Wannamaker was in the city Saturday and said : "My present conviction is that I have seen nothing in Chicago that is so fay from being up to the proper level, in view of the progress Chicago has made in other directions, than the Chicago postoffice." - Then Mr. Wanna maker explained. He said bhe appro priation was not sufficient, and he was going to work with all his energy to get a larger force of carriers in view of the rush next year. He then held a levee, and all the carriers crowded forward for the honor of a band-clash from their superior officer. A Panama Muddle. New Yobk, Oct. 24. The Pacific Mail steamship company, after February 1893, will discontinue relations with the Panama railroad for transferring traffic across the isthmus. The two companies have fallen out and cannot agree on a new contract. The steamship company will find a new interoceanlc route and indications are that it has already reached a decision. Parties connected with the Pacific Mail company are tak ing active part in the new interoceanic railroad in Honduras, or rather the re vival of an old charter that was obtained many years ago.. , Registering Tramps. A Boise City dispatch eays : ' Don Doctors has been arrested in Pocatello charged with1 illegar registration. The prosecution is being pushed by the' re publicans, who claim that Doctors is a tramp ; . that he was ' induced by .. the democrats to register, and that the democrats have a hundred of the same kind there whom they -will endeavor to vote.

The Second Accident With the Same Fatal Result Recently. FINE KBCORD FOR MARKSMANSHIP Private Hill of Fort Sherman Takes the Principal. Frizes at FortSheri dan Other News. Ripabi, Oct. 24. Nick" Chambers, a Union Pacific brakeman, ' was run over by a freight train and instantly killed at mis piace yesieraay morning, xne ac cident was similar to the one which happened en the Northern Pacific in Spokane several weeks ago. Chambers was helping the others of the train crew in switching some loaded cars at 5 :10 a. m., and ran along the track in advance of the train as it was being backed out of a siding, for the purpose of throwing a switch. As he approached the switch his foot caught between the rail proper and the guide rail which is usually placed in such places. He fell upon his face lengthwise alone tlio rail and be fore he could move from his perilous position the train was upon him. ' The TOhcola Bt.rnr.lr hia rutf. an1 in yiu ccini.

At the com petitive drill between enlisted men at Fort Sheridan, Private Hill of this fort secured first piace on an army team. He stood third on he . army carbine, team, winning a handsome gold medal. xie is a. yuuiig iiiau just uui ui ma leeun, and this is his first season as a competi- tUI , V C O .LIB ICtUlUO WlbU IrUG UCII L LH Cli j and army gold medals, valued at (200. and the Chicago Times gold medal, val ued at $50, for the best two days' skirm ish firing record, which he won by a Bcore of 236. He made 151 points in one run, putting twenty out of thirty: hits on the lying down figure. His youthful appearance and excellent shooting won the admiration of all who were present. Private Hill may well feel proud of his record as a markesman in the army, and Troop G feels honored in having in its ranks two men who have captured the department gold medal, First Sergeant Holtman having it last year, and also one of the silver medals of the army team. The Nei Perce Reserve. Review. The time is near at hand when the Nz Perce reservation will be thrown open to settlement, and already a feeling of inci eased prosperity per vades the country adjacent to that vast reserve. i.aking out the lands allotted to the Indians, there yet remain 600,000 acres unclaimed; Of this 500,000 acres are of the finest agricultural lands, equaling in fertility the famous Potlatch country, while the remaining 100,000 afford excellent range. Although there are millions of acres of unoccupied lands in the United States, yet there are com paratively few tracts of such vast extent and such desirability remaining, and it is fair to presume that this reservation will be rapidly taken by settlers anx ious and able to improve the lands they -acquire.
