Montana and the Yellowstone Region

Mr.. Harry J. Norton, one of the editors OF the
Virginia City NontdHida, has paid us a call.
Mr.. Norton is a MontaniAn, and resides
near one OF the entrances to the yellowstone
National Park" He is spending some time In
the east arranging matters In connection with
the publication Of a Guide or handbook on
Montana. and especially in reference 20 a de-
scripuon OF the wonders Of our National Park,
through which he has travelled in detail. Mr..
NeftSh IN referring 70 the following paragraph
since IT. &. Eyarts, OF Montana, writes COM
planning OF the surveys and reports of Prof.
Hayden He says;-FOr some reason this man
Hayden has seen lit to rename many OF the OLD
landmarks, giving 20 rivers aud mountains the
names OF obscure men OF his party. aud when he
had exhausted these he was compelled 20 resort
10 naming prominent peak IN Gallitin valley
after an alien Englishman," says that as far a.
the people Of Montana are concerned the above
Is totally without foundation; but, on the
contrary, Prot haydens report is regarded
by the people Of the territory a. one OF great
interest, and will DO more to make our terri
tories iavorshly known 20 the country and
the world, and induce Immigration, than
any other publication, public or private.
IL l. not only the privilege. but ore OF the first
duties OF the original explorer to see as he maps
a country that all mountains and streams OF
sufficient Importance receive a local, III not
permanent, name in their reports and on their
maps, otherwise they are still undesignated.
The report, be says, treats Of all subjects most
July, that refer 20 the geology, minerslogy,
and natural history of the territory, and in a
manner that will forever reflect credit on Prof.
Hayden and his corps Of assistants. In re-
gard 20 the naming Of peaks after obscure
me mbers of Dr. Hayden's party he has heard
OF no such thing, except in one or two cases.
where an obscure peak was named after one or
two OF the most worthy members of his survey,
and which had previously no names, and those
names are most worthily bestowed. Mr.. n.
gives a good account OF his territory and its
people, and says that The greatest need now felt
is that OF railroad communication with the out
slde world. The gold and silver yield OF Mon
tsna for 1853 he estimates at nearly four mil
lions, and SAYS the agricultural products OF the
territory are almost a drug in the market, hour
being only worth Sl.5O TO 81 per 100 lbs. and
other produce proportionately low Cattle
breeders are fast turning their attention % the
breeding Of thoroughbred stock, and the inn
portation OF thoroughbred short horns is becOm-
ing quite frequent.
