INITIATIVE.

r. In commencing the publication of the
-DAILY MONTANA PosT in this city, estab-
Iished precedent and n recognition of
what is due to those whose patronage
we solicit, induces a statement of the
position of the paper and an indication
of the course it will pursue. AS those
declarations have merit, and as we ad-
here to them, measure your support and
confidence.
For the present, the Daily will be
issued the size of the present number.
4 stock of material now en- route will
arrive early in the summer. Thereafter
the Daily will be the same size as the
Daily Sacramento Union 1t will be
sought to continue the PosTa good local
and general newspaper; the facilities OF
the telegraph and the assistance of a
large corps of correspondents in the va
rious camps contributing the news Of
their respective localities, enables us to
make it valuable at home and abroad.
Our confidence in Montana is founded
upon her gold product of one hundred
millions; her rich gulches and exhaust
less bar diggings; her many thousand
quartz leads, rich and remunerative be-
yond question her great valleys, yield
ing more grain to the acre than any
other in America; and her intelligent,
industrious people. This faith we make

cate all measures that tend to develop its
resources, draw hither immigration, OF
establish more desirable communica'
tions with the east and west.
The political sentiments of the paper
are Republican, without equivocation ol
dilution. We think we can show cause
for the faith that is in us, and will be
found, with colors up. on that line when
ever sought. Governments of the peo
pIe naturally divide into two parties
questions arise, are discussed, and IN
these discussions, however fierce, Trutl
will endure and Error fall These con-
tests and wars of words keep the polit-
ical atmosphere wholesome, and elimi-
mates Right just as the war of element
purifies the air we breathe and the con
tact of opposites produces the pure cleo

against individuals and bar reply is
prostitution Of the high powers and mil

good faith on their part, trife with it's
friendship and reject the expressed i'm
tent of the treaty-"to strengthen, if
possible, the good understanding which
exists between the countries" The
acquisition we thought, at the time, to
have been inexpedient, but having gone
so far as it has. compliance with it's
terms is in every point preferable to
retraction. If Russia is disposed to grant
an extension, we hope the House will,
at an early day. appropriate the requis-
lite amount to fulfill the contract.

WHY We llosT THE GRANT FLAG. w" have
already noticed that the Butte Record. Il Demo-
cratic paper, has raised the name of Grant and
Colfax. Now find the following in the last
issue of the San Mateo (Democratic) Gazette:-
:. Our readers will very likely notice that in this
issue of the Gazsne the banner of Grant and
Colfax is flying at the masthead. Our con-
science and patriotism would not permit us to
do otherwise, in fact. The time has arrived
whrn consider il the Imperative duty of
every true Enion citizen Of these United States
70 come ont on the Lords side, and take a
stand against the plotters of treason, under
whatever parb or name tn y ma seek to worm
themselves into popular favor. Having
been born ana. reared Democrat 1t Is with no
little reluctance that we find ourSef competed
10 seek our affinity with party other than the
Democratic marty As between Republic
can rnle and rebel rule prefer to trust the
control of this Republic in the hands OF the Re
pnblicans a while longer We have faith IN
Grant and Colf:,x's loyalty and political honesty
but haze none in Seymour or Frank BLAIR :
With these convictions we see no alternative ex'
cept to give our support to Grant ana Coifax
We believe that in the success OF the Republican
party lies all hope of the peace and prosperity o
the country and we also believe that the cleo
ton of Seymour and Blair would result in an
other rebellion in less than four years.

no one will be unkud enough to question her
'.ioyalty Judge Griffin was holding court in
