A Well Deserved Tribute.

Il is not often we meet in inewspaporial
life with so fraterna spirit and one SO i'm
pregnaied with the essence Of true gentilify
as that manifested in an article published in
the ST. Louis Democrat of the 9th, congratu-
lating the Messrs., Knapp on their suspicious
Inauguration on the 8th, Of the palatial ke-
publican building. We copy the article and
commend it as soiaething which ought
to be generally initiated, and which some
people we know of would be wiser and
better if they did initiate:
lit is not often given, even to the most
deserving men, to view with eyes yet I'M

SIR: Seeing in your last issue what the

me through the columns of your valuable

some of which remarks / am sure all good,
law-abidins citizens will coincide with me
in.

contained but very few buildings, anu 70

It's own officers, Judge, Sheriff. etc. tand in
nv ninion they are good, reliable and trust
worthy men, and why not allow these off1-
GERS to be the Judges In all cases that may re-
ouire their action. and not allow body of
men to take the law gut OF their hant.s--inen
who, doubt very much. are citizens in good
standing-who have themselves been more
guilty at times than those they nave just
launched into eternity. If we are TO nave

they not attend to the wants of a great many
men who ere constantly to be seen loafing
and lettering about the streets and taverns.
who do no work of any kind from one years
end to another, neither have they any visible
means of support, and are what call the
worst class OF Migrants, gamblers. blacklegs
ETC., that have ever seen in an Eastern city,
or even in the the Territories? Why do this

main III the city? say, give them certain
time to leave town and if they fail to comply
with the order, have them arrested by proper
authority and tried as Migrants, and If found
guilty of the charge, have them sent to the
Territorial prison, where they will be COM
PEELED to work for their food, and venture
to say that, in nine cases out of every ten,

It will be seen ON reference to the follow
sng statement relative to our trade with
Montana. that despite the disadvantages we
labor under as competitors against St. Louis,
Chicago, and Eastern cities, we are rapidly
gaining ground in that direction, and hold
ing what we get. The following shipments
of merchandise have been made to Montana
from San Francisco during the past
year, viz:
Sugar, 900 pounds; syrup, 10000 gal
Ions; coffee, 100000 pounds; tea, 10000
pounds; dried fruits, 100,0O0 pounds: green
fruits 100000 pounds; California canned
goods, including pickles, 10000 packages;
wines and liquors, 90 900 gallons; beans, $50,
600 pounds; rice. 100000 pounds; cigars, 1,
1850. Besides the articles enumerated,
there is an increasing demand for wooden
ware, powder, quicksilver, saddles, harness,
buck gloves, boots, blankets and clothing OF
California manufacture.
The Montana merchants transact their
business On currency basis, and if COM
PEELED to purchase here at gold rates, the
difference in value of their exchange when
RENTED here in payment, may amount to
8 or per cent less than wi ell the purchases
were made. This notable extension of our
trade wit Montana is principally due to the
inducements held forth by the Pacific Rail-
road Company in the matter of low freights,
and the same thing is true ill reference to

heard directly fir pm, or of Mr.. Schultze the
Bozeman cabinet maker, since he left
Helena. hnt from the New York World 81
Jan. 23d, we clip the following which shows
that his fame has preceded him:
'srhc luck that attends President Grant
in the way of gifts has just received new
exemplfication of It's vitality In the shape OF
a present which is now on it's way to Wash
ington, il indeed i has not already re ched
the city. This latest addition to the Presi-
dents testimonials is a large and magnificent
desk, eleven feet high and OF four stori S,
INTELLECTUALLY considered. 1t is the hal di-
work of Mr.. Frederic e. Scbulze, Of Boze-
man, Montana, a village Of some 500 inllab-
itatIls situated about 100 miles from Helena.
It is built entirely Of cedar and pine, 900 feet
Of the former and 200 feet OF the latter
having been used IN its construction. There
isnot screw or nail used in it, and it was
all made by hand by Mr.. Schultze and his
son Fritz; who have been engaged on it for
two years. 1t consists Of 400 separate
pieces, and weighs the goodly weight of O.
300 pounds; is of the most ingenious design
in the matter Ut the ornamental work upon
it, and it is inlaid and of the finest polish.
The triumph achieved in this specimen OF
Office architecture is found in its building
plan. A rock at Wind River furnished the
model to the backwoolsman who erected 1t.
There is a book-stand On each side of the
first story and place for seat. The second
story comprises secretary, which is COM
posed of three revolving cylinders, which, a
spring being touched, may be turned round

nonnced one of the finest pieces of work

&c ntleman named Bruce has proceeded to
Washington to receive it ON its arrival there"
The Wertd is critically correct iii the de-
scription of the desk, the source of its de-
sign and the time occupied In its manufac-
ture, but is slightly in error in stating that
it is intended as personal present to Presi-
dent Grant. The magnificent article is in

to be SO for the present President just solong
