THANKSGIVING DAY.
BY the Governor-A Proclamation.

Another year speeds into the eternal past.
It has been to Montana one of prosperity.
Foil has had reconpense, and plenty fills
the land. Neither pestilence, nor want, nor
calamity have Swallowed our hearts, and al
though dangers menaced and the evil day
seemed nigh when our valleys would be the
scene of desotation, the Father, who doeth
all things we'll, wonderfully protected our
cur homes and people, and gave our enemies
unto destruction. 1t is eminently fitting
that we who remain the living witnesses Of
Gods goodness to us as a people should
again assemble, give thanks to the Great
Ruler who has so sheltered us, and invoke
His continued care and guidance. In con-
formity to the day designated by the Presi-
dent Of the United States, [ do therefore.
recommend that Thursday, the Doth day of
November, 1877, be observed by the people
q Montana as a day of thanksgiving, prayer
and rest, and that, putting aside their bust
NESS labors and pursuits, they assemble in
their respective places OF worship and make
grateful acknowledgment to Almighty God.
In witness whereof have h%ereunto set
my hand and caused the Great Seal of the
Territory to be affixed.
Done at Helena, the Capital, this sixth
day of November, in the Year of
our Lord one thousand, eight hum
[sEAL. dred and eighty-seven. and of the
independence Of the United States

MUSCLESHELL AND JUDITH.

The fame of the beautiful and fertile val
legs of eastern Montana as a country admir-
ably adapted to the wintering Of game. and
consequently the wintering of stock. is
spreading far beyond the limits of our own
Territory. Col. A. P. Pickett, who. made
an extended tour of the Eastern slope of the
Rocky Mountains this fall, in a letter to the
Forest and Stream, in speaking of his ex-
ploits in hunting in this favored region and
his success in bringing down the, nimble
game that abound in Montana, make, fiat
tering mention of the Judith and Muscle
shell valleys:
"As "Sycamore' and "Antler" have re-
called your many readers with what they
know about deer, their habits, ETC., 1
thought an item from this region concern
ing them might not be uninteresting. AN

We forwarded a petition to Congress two

We forwarded a petition to Congress two
years since asking for the establishment of
this route, and time and again urged our
representative to press the matter. And
since the establishment of the route have
made dilligent inquiry as to whether the
contract had been let or MOTTO whom, etc.
It would seem from the above that the con-
tract has been let to a responsible party who
has been let off. If so, we trust that the
department may order service as far as the
Lower Smith river settlement this winter,
and all the way through in early spring.
The country through which this route
passes is just settling up, and is one of the
best agricultural and both summer and win
ter pastoral regions anywhere to be found,
and mail service has become a necessity.
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1877-11-29

In speaking Of the new mail route be-
tween Camp Baker and Fl. Shaw, the Ben
ton Record says:
About two years ago we called attention
to, the Importance of opening up and estab-
fishing a mail route on the road between
Fort Shaw, or Sun River, and Camp Baker.
We subsequently" learned that the mail con
tract had been let, but the contractor had
obtained, upon some frivolous pretext, an
extension of the time allowed for establish
ing the route. We can imagine no private
interests of sufficient Importance to Justify
the Department in granting: leave to post
pone a work SO urgently required by the set
tiers along the proposed route, and the i'm
portance OF having regular communication
between the. military posts is in; itself a suf-
ficient reason. for immediate attention to the
subject. The distance from. Fort Shaw to
Camp Baker is not as great as that from
Fort Shaw to Helena, while. the latter route
extends through an almost u%ninhabi!eu re-
gion, and the former through a compare
lively thiokly settled section containing
some of the finest agricultural and pasture
lands of tho Territory. and where many of
the leading. stockmen and farmers of Mon
tana have. established permanent homes.
Under the present arrangement, the Sun
River and Fort Shaw mail has TO travel
fromst the latter points to Helena, and from
thence to Camp Baker, a distance of nearly
n hundred and fifty miles, while the Gov
erAment road from Shaw to Baker, via
Deep creek. [Smith river] is not more than
seventy-five miles, and the establishment of
mail COMMUNICATION along the latter route is
urgently demanded by a large class of
wealthy and respectable citizens. We hope
the Department will give early attention to
thus matter. and if the present contractor is
unable to stock the road, give some one who
mas the means an opportunity to undertake
the work.
