Bismarck tri-weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, D.T. [N.D.]) 1875-1881, 1877-07-18

States is located in this department, and
the army business adds more to the busi-
ness of Bismarck than to all other points
in the department, and yet capital, which
should always be conservative, has been
too timid to make investment in the best
town in the Northwest.
During the months Of May and June,
one of our mercantile establishments
handled vouchers, soldiers final state
ments, &C., to the extent of eightyithous-
and dollars, The bank Of Bismarck which
is connected with leading house, prob
ably handled still more. During these
two months the Bismarck Post Office is
sued about twenty thousand dollars in
money orders,-in items of one to fifty
dollars-ag greater money order business
than st. Paul is doing.
This item, alone, shows the necessity
for increased banking facilities. q.
The Bank of Bismarck is good as far as
it goes. It's managers are capable and
honest, and they have large means-are
responsible in every respect, but they do
not, and can not, fill the demand for in
creased banking facilities. ~ z.

The Big Hofn.

That there is gold in the Big Horn
mountains there can be no longer a
question.
The information published by the TR1-
BuNr of late on thissubject is conclusive
on this point.
Thousands have already left the Black
Hills and points in Montana for the new
mining district and all reports from them
confirm the view that the gold deposits
ofthat region are simply immense.
The distance from Bismarck to these
new gold fields is $40 miles. Steamboats,
run from Bismarck to the foot Of the
mountains and to within dozen miles
OF the gold fields.
The trail from Bismarck is we'll defn-
ed, several large military, and railroad
surveying expedite ms having passed over
it. The road is good and the country is
free from hostile Indians.
The whole trade Of this region Will
center at Bismarck and we are not sur
prised that the construction of the Libby
Custer and other boats specially adapted
to the Big Horn trade, tobe used as Big
Horn packets, has been determined upon
by responsible parties.
While it is true that this trade cannot
be diverted from Bismarck, it Is impor-
tant that our citizens take immediate
steps to call attention to the Big Horn
gold fields and to advertise the advantage
presented by this route over all others,
and it would be well to send reliable
man to the Big Horn to prospect and re-
port. It was in this manner, it will be
remembered, that attention was attracted
to the Black Hills gold fields. Bismarck
efforts did more to open the Black Hills
mines than the work 6 al Others, and
but for the tardiness Of the railroad peo'
pie in acting upon the information placed
before them, Bismarck would have reaped
ten fold greater advantages than she has
realized.
But it does not lay in the power of any
body to obstruct or delay the opening OF
the Big Horn country, and, in view of its
effect on the Indian question, we have
reason to suppose that the government
will extend protection and assistance,
should it become necessary, to those
opening the mines, but it is in the power
of those interested and the North Pacific
to hasten the occupation of the country
and the opening of business connections
Herewith.

Increased Banking Facilities
Demanded.

The business of this region demands
increased banking facilities. A private
banking house would find employment
for about fifty thousand dollars to the
best possible advantage. The principal
business of this country is in connection
with the government. and vouchers, to
the extent of nearly half a million, annu-
ally, are handled by the business men Of
this city, and advances are frequently re-
quired to enable parties to successfully
work their contracts. j# I53t-E/
The government business not ;only de-
mands increased banking facilities, but the
private business of the country, also.
Our business men are without accom-
mediation in money matters No matter
how good their business, no matter what
securities they offer, or what rate of in
terest, money can not be obtained, be-
cause all of the currency of the country
is absorbed in vouchers, and all of the
capital invested in business other than
banking. 81 -
Thirty six steamers ply to and from
Bismarck, picking up business on thous-
and miles of navigable waters above the
city, and several hundred miles below
business amounting to hundreds of thous
ands of dollars annually, and yet the
whole region is destitute of proper bank
ing facilities.
The trade with the Black Hills has as
sumed vast proportions. Not less than
one thousand teams are constantly en-
ployed in freighting between Bismarck
and the Hills, and yet we are without
proper banking facilities.
About half of the army of the United

The Sheridan Hotel.

The Sheridan Hotel
The furniture is in place in twenty
Of the seventy -four sleeping rooms 1t
the Sheridan Hotel. The parlor and
sitting room is furnished, the billiard
hall is about ready for business, and
the cooking arrangements are nearly
completed. The house will be opened
for business about the 22d. s---g r.
Mr.. A. B. Wiley, of st. Peter, Mimi,
will have direct charge Of the hQuse
will NJ. William Ross, Of st. Paul,
clerk. 1t will be run by Mr. E. 81. Bly,,
however, who will spend much of his
time in Bismarck. The prices charged
for day board will be $500 per week;
for board with room 800 transients
5000 per day.
The house is elegantly furnished-1n-
deed St. Paul does not boast better ho
tel accommodations and there is moth
ing on the line of the N. P. to compare
with it. Bismarck is good hotel town
but with the Sheridan open for busi-
ness the demand for increased hotel fa-
cili.ies is fully satisfied.

Ont of Work.

This is the cry in every town and viii
lage throughout the entire country from
Maine to California, and still there are
two sides of the story, for nine out of
every ten of the men who cannot find
any thing to do, would not accept work
at fair wages if offered them. AS sam.
pie of their earnest endesvors to find
work, we may cite . recent instance &C.
curing in indianapolis, Ind, where
several thousand men demand work OF
bread. The proprietors of stone
quarry at Vandalia offered employment
to large number of these, and free
passes were gwen for the railroad.
Eighteen accepted the passes, but only
five used them, and not ono of the lat~
tor went to work. Is it any wonder
that business flags and capitalists pre-
for to loan money at three per cent.
rather than risk it where they will be
at the mercy of Trades Unions and un-
trustworthy laborers generality No
sooner does man get the foundation
of . building fairly under way, than the
masons and other laborers employed
strike, and force him to pay higher
wages or lose that which he has already
invested. q :,ssz -
= A few days since the foundation stone
for q new silk.mill was laid in Pater-
son, N. j., and the next day the oper-
atives in all the other mills struck, de
claring that if business was good
enough to insure the building of anoth
er mill, it was certainly good enough to
pay better wages in those completed;
and this is the way it seems to go in
oil branches Of business, the laborers
blocking up the path preventing revi,
val of trade a1d better times generally.
It looks very much to US as though it
was the poor who were making hard
times, instead of capitalists and "bloat-
ed monopolies;;" at least, we know it is
SO N this city, ifnot elsewhere.

JOHN Smith,

| Disguised the name may sometimes
be But is the commonest name through
out all Europeon countries. It does
sometimes effect . spelling above the
common, and appears as Smyth, Smythe
or DeSmythe. It also in England as
sumes : Latin guise from ferrum) and
becomes Ferrier and Ferrars, one of the
noble names of England, associated also
with tragedy not noble either in it's
character or it's consequences. In Ger
many We have the Schmidt; in Italy
the Fabri, Fabricia, or Fabbroni; in
France the lie Febres or Lefevres. Al
though most of the European languages
adhere more closely to old Northern
names, even in Latin we have volumes
in our library by Johannas Smithus,
and we haye seen in Italy Giovanni
SMITH. The Spaniard's version Of John
Smith is Juan Smithus; the Dutchmen
adopt it as Hans Schmidt; the French
soften it into Jean Smeets; the Russians
roughen it into Joulof Smittowski.
John Smith goes into the tea trade with
China, and then he becomes Jabon
Schimmit. Among the Icelanders he
is Jaime Smitflson; in Poland, Ivan
Schmittiaveiski; among the Welsh we
are told they talk of Jihom Schmidt;
in Mexico he is written down-as Jout-
lif Smitri; among the classical ruins Of
Greece he becomes Ion Sinihton; in
Turkey he is almost lost sight of as
Yce Seef.

anticipated some time ago.
The Catholic church building on
Main street, in Bismarck, 52x38, was
erectedsin 1878, under. the. supervision
of Rev. Father j. B. Genin, . member
of the French Congregation, called the
Estates of Mary of Imaculate. He and
his reverend confreres, Simonea, La
flock, Tomazin and others have been at
work among the Indians, half-breeds
and the later immigrants Of Northern
Dakota since 1867. Father Genin has
Christ churches at all the principal
points along the Northern Pacific R. r,
at Duluth, Moorhead, zBrainerd and
Bismarck Other priests have comesto
his assistance since; so Rev. Father
Genin, who with Sisters of Charity
from Montreal, resides among the Indi>
ans near Fort Totten, and the Bene-
dictine'F from St. Meinrad's Abbey,
Indiana, who evangelized the Indians
of Standing Rock, and visits, every
month the Catholics at Fort Rice and

the correspondent was writing, collect.
ed $500 towards building by the side of
St. Mary's church in Bismarck a priest
house and residence for Benedictine
Sisters. They intend to open their
school in the beginning of next Sep

We are just now doing penance-at

and then win the game. OF course we
refer to mosquitoes.
It is amusing to hear old residents
comparing notes and striving to decide
whether the "skeeters'' were worse In
'73 than now, but it generally comes to
this, that the past suffering and annoy
ance amounts to nothing when you are
actually engaged in fighting the pests
in the present. 1t is . very consoling
thing to Us when we hear some one
from Tongue river say, "there are no
mosquitoes there, not one" It is very
comforting-for Tongue river people !;
and l don't know that We would have
aoy regret were . blessed breeze to
watt these little innocents far away
from Us and give some other locality .

bs derived from slaughtering them. l

the mosquitoes are simply terrible.
Two scouts arrived from Gen. Miles

the expedition it was resting at the
head Of Cedar Creek, about 100 miles
from here, waiting for news expected

ans. Nothing of interest had occurred
up to tho time these scouts left the ex.
petition. They report the command -
consisting of some nine companies Of

The fair of the Woodlawn Farmerss Asso-
citation com nenced this morning in this city,
and, 10 every respect, more than equaled the
expecta,iops that had been formed Of it BY those
who we're unaware Of the interest that had been
awakened 10 the enterprise, and OF The means
that had been employed to make 1t success.
The exhibition, in all it's departments, from The
magnificent borses in the large and we'll filed
stock ward to the most delicate article Of ladies'
work 10 the beautiful and crowded exposition
rooms, is most credtable one. comparing ia
vorably With the annual fairs Of many OF the
other more extensive agricultural associations
in the State. Though the articles exhibited are
but fair samples of the products OF this section
Of the Old DomEioo, many of them have not
been aud could not we'll be excelled; but they
only show the capabilities Of the soil and CHI
mate of the country Immediately surrounding
this city when taken advantage If by skill and
industry. Should the attendance meet the an
ticipations Of The managers an effort will be
made to consolidate all the agricultural assocla'
tons 10 this portion of the State, erect suitable
buildings here, aud have an annual fair, the
attractions of which will be sufficient to draw
visitors from all sections Of the country. We
hope, therefore, that every resident OF Alex
andria will visit the fair and induce all his
friends TO 90 with him. The exhibition is real
~ worth visit, is attractive 10 all its uumerou;
divisions, and if large Attendance be all that
is required to secure its repetition on more
exteadcd scale every succeeding year, By all
means let US have it.
