ANOTHER PAPER.

Rumors have been current in this commus
nifty the past week or 20 that Bozeman was tc
have second paper-the TnEs, for instance.
The names Of several persons have been con-
nected with it as editors and publishers, but
We have no tangible evidence that the embryo
journal will receive its baptism in printers
ink at an early day. In the publication Of 9
newspaper there are several important points
to consider-its cost. the patronage 1t will re-
ce,ve. and the public necessity for such pub,
lication. Papers have been started to subserve
private ends, and IN such cases 1t Is well for
the II projectors to considerwhether or not the
ends will justify the means, for the public
take little stock in such enterprises in the
way of paying patronage, and the publishers
may be safe ic estimating that they will have
to advance the means whether the ends are
obtained or not Stripping the question Of
all personsl considerations, We fail to SEQ the
necessity for another paper IN this place at
this time We believe, however, that IN .
year OF so, this town and county will give q
better support to two or three papers than
they do to one now, and whenever the time
arrives when it will justify more than one
psper. We will hail the advent of an honor>
able cotemporsry. Until that time arrives the
effort to publish another paper will prove
spasmodic and dear whistle for it's inaug-
urators.

A STRONG ARGUMENT.

Whether or not It will be used when the
subject comes up for the consideration of
Congress, one of the strongest arguments IN
favor Of Government aid to the Northern Pa

stance that. in less than two years from the
the date of its completion of it. present termi
nus on the Missouri river. q distance of 45O
miles from Duluth, and through q desert
country where the foot of q white man had
scarcely trod, the road has paid the enormous
sum of one hundred thousand dollars, over
and above its running expenses! What argu-
ment than this, that this great work is open
ing up to settlement one of the richest por-
tions of our national domain! Were il not
20, and were those new and rich fields of
land now already supporting. q large and
constantly increasing population. how could
this new road, plowing its way through SO
vast region. pay not only the expense of
operating y. 6nt profit besides & This cir
cumstance will put to the wall all the subtle
arguments used BY its enemies. Does it not
satisfy even, the most dubious that the
great highway is destined to success un.
paral]eledf just think off reader. The N
p. road started from . point where all was Q
wilderness ct its inception and coursed its
way through an unbr0ken wilderness of 46o

yet in less than "a months from the time It
reached that point It has crested trade suf.
licient not only TO operate it but to pay q

about one thousand dollars per week clear
Aud yet, with this showing, there are people
foolish enough to assert that the Northern

THE SUSPENSION AND RESUMPTION
OF THE COURIER.

The patrons of this paper are entitled to
some explanation for it's sudden suspension.
It is not our purpose, nor do we think it
proper, to discuss private affairs in public,
manner but, we will say that the suspension
of the COURIER Was unavoidable on our
part, except upon conditions that, in justice
TO ourself and patrons, we could not and
would not concedc to.
The stoppage was not the result Of lack
of patronage or financial embarrassment, but
disagreement between Colonel Black, who
owned the material upon which the paper
was printed, and oursclf in regard to the
policy and management of the paper. which
he desired changed. A due regard for our
own feelings and the interests of our patrons
rendered it necessary for us to relinquish
the material upon which the COURIER had
received it, baptism. and procure s new ont.
fit, which we have done. And VIC shall not,
q the yelping cur of the Madisonian inti-
mated in noticing our suspension, make our
rc-sppearance with an apology TO the course
we took in regard to the capital question, &c.
There is no such sycophancy about US as the
fraudulent editor of that sheet, who knows
that we have been tried and are not one to
: ''bend the pregnant hinges of the knee that
thrift may follow fawnlng."
1t is our purpose to publish free and ince
pendent sheet, devoted more especially to the
interests of the people of this section of the
Territory, but liberal in its character We do
not intend to be hampered by local or sec.
tional jealousy, to the detriment of the gen.
eral prosperity of the Territory. Renouuciug
entangling personal and partizan alliances on
one hand, and everything that savors Of
neutrality on the other, our aim will be TO
discuss subjects ofinterest connected with
politics, religion, agriculture and current
events in an independent manner.
It has been our desire and aim to give the
people of this county good local paper.
giving . cheerful and hearty support to al
measures of public interest, and at all times
standing firmly by and aiding every enter
prise calculated TO inure to the advantage Of
the people among whom we live and get our
support Upon the prosperity of the people
Of Eastern Montana depends our own success,
and the assertion of some, inspired by self,
interest, tha1 we haye in the past or would in
the future support measures detrimental to
the interests of these people and suicidal to
our own business ID too flimsy to justify no>
tice and will not be entertained by intelligent
men.
Ihe paper commences its fourth volume
with : largely increased patronage and on
better basis than ever.
We ask the cooperation Of friends not only
In this but other counties to increase the cir
culstion of tine COURIER.
We invite correspondence from all sections
for publication. In this manner the interests
of communities can be advanced, and our
readers kept posted Of passing events in Sec

UNITED STATES OBSERVATORY
LOCATION CHANGED.

tfrom the Keno state Journal
In conversation with a gentleman re-
Gently from San Francisco, We learned
that it Is proposed tn change the lOca-
ton Of the site for the United States
observatory ut Lake Tahoe. The site
selected last Fall was a point of land
on the north end of the lake, about
three and . half miles east from Ia.
hoe City, and seven west from Carne-
liam Hot Springs, having an elevation
above the surface of the lake of not
more than three hundred feet-a point
which is entirely surrounded with
mountains several hundred feet high
er. 1t Is now proposed to erect said
observatory building on m of the
high peaks. about opposite the south
end Of the lake, and II little southwest
of Emerald Bay-On the principal
or main summit of the Sierra,
From this point an extended view
of the country round about may
he had rom whatever point of the
compass desired. The reason assigned
for the change was the hay or smoky
state of the atmosphere surrounding
the first site. a very good reason.
Ii Is true the Ioint To- spoken of, as
the place where will be mounted the
largest telescope eve made. is rather
difficult of access, but certainly pos
ses>cs every other consideration to the
advantageous working of such an in
stitution, whilst the only argument in
favor of the location made ut the north
end was its acceSsibility.

II SOCIAL EVIL.

A correspondent Of the Salt Lake
Herald, writing from St. Louis, under
recent date, draws some sensible con-
illusions regarding the social evil and
kindred subject. He says:
Local self-governnient" have been
watchwords OF Liberal Republicans
and Democrats for . couple of years,
and there has just been furnished a
queer exposition OF their meaning.
Chicago WAS about TO enact an ordi.
nance to license houses Of ill.fame,
when the State Legislature stepped in
and enacted q law prohibiting such
licensing. That was a Republican
legislature. Now comes the Demo-
cratic Legislature of Missouri and re-
peals the st. Louis licensing ordi-
nance. When two cities like Chicago
and st. Louis can not be permitted
to manage such internal affairs as
the regulation or restraining of this
evil, the principle of "local self
government" in Illinois and Missouri
Is a long way from meeting the re-
quirements of Observation-Disclosures
