I'VE beg pardon of the New NoRru-
WEST for announcing its suspension. We
were misled by the Helena Herald. Captain
Mills has Suspended the publication of his
Daily, which We expected, as it was cstab-
lished merely to accommodate the Deer
Lodge public with war kilograms. The
New NORTH. WEST is one of the best gene
raj newspapers in the Far West. and NO
hope and believe il is still in the infancy of
its usefulness"
All right, Mac. We have not seen your
paper announcing the demise of the New
NORTH. WEST. Glad we didn't. Don t
like obituaries especially our own. But
don't repeat the assertion, please, until VIC
scnd.you word. You may get the rcputa.
ton Of unrcliability, by a few slips like that.
Quarters will soon be erected at Fort Ellis
for 200 men.
