An Expedition to the Head Of

Preliminary steps have been taken by
responsible gentlemen of this city to Or
game an expedition to the supposed head
Iof navigation On the Yellowstone river,
which is intended to carry out practically
the obi, cts contemplated by the expedi
ton fitted out here . year sgn
The members of the contemplated expe
di,ion will outfit themselves. and there
will b no haggling or Misunderstanding
about the objects sought.
In view of the adverse report of thu
Senate Committee on the Northern Pacific
ncairoad bill, a united and determined
effort should be made by our people Il
secure steamboat navigation on the Vel
lowstone river. 1t has been demonstrated
that large boats, s1ch as ply on the Mis-
sour, can come within few hundred
miles of Bozcman-in fact, they hav'
d me so-snd it is thought lighter draurh
boats could come up much higher; posi-
bly, to point that could be reached by
days staging from our town. The con
summation Of this object would open VI
to all the principal towns of the Territor!
the short,st, safest and cheapest freigh
route to be had short of railroad. ant
would give to the immigrant direct aut
cheap transportation to the most desirabl'
Locations in Montana.
The objects Of the organization ALLUDED
to, whether it resolves itself into an expe
dition or not, are to aid and encourage tn
Opening of pavigation on the Yellowstone
