IMPORTANT SUIT.
HELENA, May 12.--Yesterday a suit was
begun in the district court for Lewis and
Clarke county that not only involves a
large. immediate sum, but also a legal ques
tion of much importance throughout the
mineral-bearing region traversed by the
Northern Pacific. viz: Whether.the right
of the Northern Pacific to landgranted it
by its charter can be in any instance void
ed by mineral claim and patent, unless
such land.is more valuable for mineral
than for agrictltural purposes. The suit
is entitled: The Northern Pacific Railroad
company vs. Chas. W. Cannon and Henry
Cannon.
MAKIŽG PROtsRESS.
HE.ENA, May 11.-Work is progressing
rapidly and in a workmanlike manner on
the Montana Cen.tral tunnel above Wickes.

position. Work on the heavy cuts and

Central grade is high above that of the

THEY NEED A RAILROAb.
WA~LA WALLA, W. T., May 10.-The
citizens here being advised that a number
of the officials and directors of the North
ern Pacific, probably President Harris.
among them, would come west within ten
days or two weeks, a meeting was called
to consider what could be done to secure
a better outlet for their products. The
citizens and farmers responded, and
adopted the proposition to tender free
right-of-way and a bonus of $75,000 if the
company would build a line to Wallulla
Junction and agree to carry wheat to'the
Sound for $4 per ton. $10,000 was at
once subscribed as a starter. The people
here are enthusiastic and anxious to secure
further railway facilities.
THE RITER TRAFFICc
FoRT BErTON, May 10.--The Judith
came out of Bismarck, heavily laden with
both through and way freight, with the in
tention of proceeding up the river until
met by the Rosebud or Helena, when
-through freight would be transferred to
hne or the other of these boats for convey
ance to Benton. The Jhdith metwith the
misfortune of blowing out a steam-pipe,
which delayed her below Buford. The
Rosebud reached the Judith at a point
below Buford, .and exchanged cargoes
with her on the 7th instant. The Eclipse,
with a full cargo of through freight,
left Bismarck for Benton on the 7th.
The' Helena completed her loading yester
day, and left Bismarck tllis mtning for
Be.torn 'The Judith will follow the Hel
en, also with a through load.
DEAjTH OF . J. SWEENEY.R
HELENA, May I,.--John M; Sweeney,
died Tusday evening at the Sters' hos
pital. Mr. S*eeney is much and deserved
ly gregrefe. He wabr.n at Emmete
trg, Myland, January 18, 1848. I e f
sme oWisconsin early, in life andti
o M0awt Ial8S6. He was enl of tthe
;;· ;
first settlers in Last Chance gulch and fol
lowed for sor.e time his avocation as a
carpenter and builder. He 'formed a
parntnrship with a man named Price, end
the. fiirm of Sweeney & Price was engaged
in buildin' and other contracts and also
ia d a lumber yard. Early in the seven
ties he formed a partnership with T. C,
Po~wer in the business which the firm of
T. C. Power & Co. has ever since conduc-:
-ted in Helena, Deer Lodge, Bozeman and
Missoula. For snme tame past he had
been aff~cted with consumption and he
casiona!lv with rheumatic attacks. His
bedside, "at the hour of dissolution, was
surrouuded by Father Palladino, four of
the Sisters. Mr. and irs. H. F. Gales,
J~hn W. Besserer, manager of the Boze
man business of the deceased; his Deer
Lodge partner: his brother, Wm. Sweeney,
of Baltimore, who had but lately arrived;
his physician, Dr. Tracy,and otherfriends.
The fuer-al occurred on Taursday from
the Catholic church, of which he was al
ways a member.
Mr. Sweeney's life was a most exem
,'ary one. In all his relations with his
ft-!low-men honesty and honor xiere net
me rely watchwords, they were unques
tioe:tbly acted upon as the cardinal rule of
bus:ness. lie was a man of sterling char
a-te: and was fully appreciated by his
fellow.--citizens, by whom he was uni
versal:v resoected. .He was never mar
ried. The brother who was at his

and oth r relatives in Maryland survive
him. t1. is understood to have left a
will, but nothing is known of its pro
visions. fHis estate is probably worth
~5T,000.

ground. There were seven starters out of
19 entries, Jacobin was the favorite in the
betting which w s 15 to 1 against Montrose.
Toward the close it was nip and tuck be

Gore if he had to kill the colt, and as-he
laid on the lash the horse was seen to be
limping. Lewis gave Montrose the rein
and he won by two lengths with Jim Gore

half. Montrose is owned by Labould
