The majority of onr business men ore advocating tbe employment of an assist ant for Marshal Thornton, now tbat the season of inducement is at band for an element of oopsiderate beings who have an ambition (or the welfare of tbe "gay and festive" sbenp shearar. Our town is already infested with the advance guard who have a desire to imbibe a good share of "elixir of life,' necessitating the vig ilance of tbe marshal night and day, and his physical end uranoe neoessary for this continual service is questioned. We venture the suggestion tbat it is an im perative wed, and should be considered by tbe mayor and ooanoil immediately. Recorder Williams' First Cast).

The program, published in our last issue, proved to be very entertain ing and was enjayed by a large audience. The first number, by Mrs. H. W.

Jack Parker visited tbe Hwaggart ranch last Sunday, and furnishes the Gazette with tbe following observations : "Arriving at tbe ranch, tbe first live stook to meet your gaze is a drove of well-bred Berkshire bogs, associating themselves with a barnyard of game oou ks. In tbe stables I first took a look at Oalpburous and two ot bis one-year-old colts, perfeot bean ties. Two chest nut fillies, daughters ot Calpburnus, tbe dams of wbiob are Lady Opbal and Miss Coxey, were tbe next on tbe list for in spection, and io my judgment theyshoud win laurels in tbe future. Penland Buttes, tbe sprinter, is looking fins, and will doubtless bs in form for tbe race of bis life this season, and will command respect in Montana. A four-year old obestnul gelding by Yakima Diok, dam Lady Opbal, will probably line np in good shape. A brown four-year old filly by Hwamp, dam Blackbird, looks well and will run ber maiden race this season at tbe Lakeyiew meeting." Tbe imported stallion, Calpburnus, with so much Touchstone and Pantaloon blood in bis veins, sboold prodooe coll tbat can win for Morrow oounty recognition through out the land. As it is Psoifio coast horsemen make it a point to reg. iarly took over tbe well bred colts ot our local horsemen.
