The humane and just treatment e.
this war-like tribe and the presence
of United States troops at their agen-
cies, will prevent the recurrence of

made this section of the Territory
THE YELLOWSTONE PARK.
The geyser region OF the Upper
Yellowstone, which Congress has
wisely set apart as "A National Park,
is unquestiOnably the most astOnish-
ing combination of natural wonders
and of imposing aud beautiful
scenery in the world. The report Of
United States geologists, who have
repeatedly visited that region, fully
demonstrate this fact. When the
bark shall become accessible by rail-
roads-sly five years hence-we pre-
dict that il will become the great
summer resurt aud sdnitarium Of the
continent. For Si~ght-seers and lovers
OF the wonderful and picturesque it
will have o attractions than
Niagara, Yosemite and the White
Mountains combined; and there is
the best reason to believe that the
myriadS Of hot and mineral springs
in the Yellowstone Park possess val
liable curative properties The
summer climate in this region is de
lightfuliy cool, bracing and healthiul.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Our people are mainly from the
Western and Southwestern states,
and, though few in number, are
energetic, enteTprising and intelli-
gent. They are the nucleus of what
is to be the leading commonwealth Of
the new Northwest. The school
system Of Wyoming is excellent and
abundantly sustained. The Terri
tori. il free from debt.
Severa. of the counties have incur
red indebtedness by the making Of
needed, permanent improvements;
which debts are represented by
county bonds redeemable in from ten
to- twenty years and are consequently
not burdensnme.
With the opening up to settlement
Of Northern Wyomingthe tide ofim-
migration will pour into this Terri
tory. as it formerly has into Califor-
mia or Kansas. The impetus thereby
given Ia our mining interests, to
stock raising, agriculture and wool
growing. will give occupation to a
large population and add much to
the wealth of the nation.
In short, considering climate,
healthfulneSs, fertility variety, and
abundance Of natural riches, and the
lDcation on the line of the great
national thoroughfare, the Union
Pacific railroad, we know of no
part of the Western country, which
eXcells Wyoming, the youngest
child Of Uncle sam.
1t is no place for drones or handles;
but for hard work, honest endeayor,
and capital backed by brains, II offers
a wide field and a reasonably sure
reward.

As a grazing region, it is generally
admitted by Western stockmen OF
experience that Wyoming mas no
equal. Its superiority CONSISTS mainly
in this, that the grass is more abund-
ant and of better quality, the win
tiers are milder and the snow falls
less in our sheltered valleys than on
the elevated and exposed |plateaux
further SOUTH Good waite i abund-
ant in Wyoming and the climate i
such That herds of all kinds of stock
keep perfectly healthy, and the in
creas is remarkably rapid and Ger
tain. Many have expressed the
opinion that the stock growing in
dustry OF Wyoming Is of more i'm
portance To her Inhabitants than al.
her gold and silver mines, rich as
they are. 1t is certain that the pecu-
culiar kind of grass found here ON our
plains and hill-sides is more nu-
tritious than Ohio timothy or the
best blue grass of Kentucky. This
bunch or gamma grass starts up
early in the spring, reaches maturity
in June and then ures where it
stands, retaining all its nutritive
qualities and constituting the finest
autumn or winter feed for stock that
hAAulG ms any MAhNA IAoNA 1Nh- IL
not only grows in the valleys, but
covers the foothills and the bench
lands, and frequently reaches the
mountain tops, thus furnishing I'M
limited grazing throughout the year
on lands not available for other pur-
poses.
We know of no business, open to
all corners, which itfers such solid in
ducementS as stOck-raising in Wyo-
ming. With good management the
risks are few and the returns are
large. Men long engaged in the bus
mess assure us that the profits exce"d
four per cent. a month, thus doub-
ling the capital in two years. 70
reap all the advantages of the bust
ness and make it fully worth an en-
terprising mans attention, it is
desirable to start with IA herd costing
from five to ten thousand dollars.
Many, however, begin with less and
Kucceed well. The bushes of wool
owing, although now in its infancy
n this Territory, IS destined to be-
ONE a leading interest.
THE INDIAN QUESTION.
The Indians in Wyoming are
known as "Treaty Indians" living
on a reservation away from white
settlements. The northeastern part
OF Wyoming is yet neutral ground,
the ioux Indians being permitted
oy treaty s~tipulations to hunt over
the same. 1t is expected that Con-
Fress next winter will abrogate the
existing treaty and confine these
Indians to their present reservation
beyond the boundary lines of Wynn

slikely to result in permanent peace

The discovery Of rich gold mines
In the Black Hills Of Northwestern
Wyoming has directed general at
tcntion to our Territory, and letters
of inquiry in relation To the climate,

we have not the time To pen q reply
to each correspondent, we will al
tempt L answer their queries collec-
lively by giving a general resume Of
what may be consistently and truth
fully claimed for our Territory
CLIMATE. HEALTHFCLEESs.
Wyoming is n Territory of i'm
menss extent and hence must have a
variety of climate. 1t is also a
mountainous region and what is true
of the climate of the valley and
plains would not he true OF the
higher elevations; but, speaking gen
orally, and with special reference To
the portions already settled and the
portion inviting settlement, we say,
without hesitation, there Is not a
finer climate in the world. 1t i per
fec:ly healthy, the air Is dry, pure
and hracing; there is no malaria and
hence no ague occurs here WyOin-
ing Is free from the extremes OF heat
and cold, the yearly average temper
AZURE being the same a. that of Ohio
and Indiana. Our winters are
usually warmer and far plPasanter
than those OF Illinois OF Pennsylva-
mia. Snow rarely falls I o any con

RESOURCES
The special Of Wyoming
are stock raising, mining and. in
some portions, agriculture. Farm
lands are abundant in all the valleys
and when irrigated are not surpassed
for fertility and productiven' =. As
to mining, Wyoming has rich depns-
its OF gold, silver, copper, irOn, lead,
aud coal. Our mines are. Of course,
less developed than those of the older
Territories, owing to the presence of
hostile Indians in the richest mining
districts of this Territory. When we
are relieved from the presence of orr
red brethren, that is when the gov
eminent takes measures to keep them
OF their permanent reservation in
Dakota, the Development OF our min
ing interests, especially in the Black
Hills and Big Horn mountains, will
be on a scale that will surprise the
most sanguine-
Immense tracts of our Territory
ESTIMATED To cuve 10000 square
miles, are underlaid with the finest
coal to'be found west of the Rocky
Mountains, so that a perpetual supply
OF cheap fuel is certainty with Us.
Timber OF good quality is found in
nearly allparts of Wyoming, consist
ing mainly Of pine, cedar, hemlock,
and cottonwood.

spelling match in Music Hall says: 1.-The
next victim is a Herald man whose appear

will put an instead of an in millennium" !"
But the editor of the Herald actually mis-
spells the word himself by leaving out an ~.
Considering this too good joke to be lost we
took the item in to the Globe office, so that
our brother of the Globe might give the Her.
aid editor brotherly rap. But what was our

Senator Eaton of Connecticut, claims that
the Union is a confederacy and not nation,
and that "the State of Connecticut is a SOW

same thing for all the states. 1t we admit
this claim, what becomes Of the General Gov

once decide that the sovereign states are en-
titled to set at defiance the laws of the nation,
and if they desire to set up an independent
confederacy of their own the General Gov

Democratic rule in Texas is bearing its

The picture drawn in the Greville me-
moirs of her royal uncle appears to have
greatly displeased Queen Victoria. Mr..
Henry Reeve, the editor of the memoirs, was
absent from the last levee, and it is stated
that his absence was not accidental, and that
he will never be allowed to appear in Her
Majesty's presence again. The vacancy
made by the death of Sir Arthur Helps
would in the regular course of promotion be
filled by Mr.. Reeve. But that gentleman's
connection with the Objectionable book has
ruined his chances, and Mr.. Theodore Mar
tin, editor of the Prince Albert's journals,
familiarly known as the "antidote," will
probably be next clerk of the Privy Council.
