Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1878-08-29

A gentleman writing from st. Louis says.
he Is DESTROYS of selling his property
there and moving to some healthier country.
and wishes to know how it is in Montana.
lie states chat he is a carder by trade, also
a fireman, and understands how to run an
engine. That he is accustomed to handling
horses, understands all about farming, gar
dening, milking cows, and is handy with
carpenters tools. That he has a wife, and
seven children, also asks if a man can buy a
convenient ranch for cash; which is the best
time to come, and which the cheapest, and
best route. In reply we would say, if a
man has a comfortable home in the states,
has plenty of the luxuries of life, is sur
rounded by the advantages of education
and society. we have no desire to lure him
away to our mountain home, which he is IL
able to consider wild and uncouth, however
bright and beautiful it may seem to us; but
a plain statement of facts such as he will
find to exist should he come can do no
wrong. The climate Of Montana is hard to
excel. The winters are often cold but the air
is so light and dry that there is not as much
suffering from cold as in Missouri, or even
states further south. The heavy damp
winds that sweep those regions are far more
chilling and disagreeable than our dry frosty
arctic winds. Gu summers are cool. nights
always pleasant, and in fact sultry hot
weather, such us prevails in the great Mis-
sissippi valley is unknown. In consequence
of this the health of the country is remark
ably good j, we know Of none that is better.
The opportunities for laborers in engine
ROOMS are not numerous, and there are no
carding mills. carpenters are in good de-
mand SO also are farmers, gardeners, and
ranch hands capable of milking cows and
handling stock. Situations are easily OBJ

THE PROFANE PASTOR.
A Tale in Five Chapters.

Chapter I,-Once upon time, in the dark
ages of the nineteenth century, there lived a
gentleman who held a commission in the
army.
Chapter II.-But he had serious scruples
as TO whether it was right or wrong to kill
his fellow creatures at the bidding of others,
or, in fact, whether it was not a crime to kill
his fellowmcn at all.
Chapter III.-He decided that it toas a
crime, notwithstanding the glitter and tinsel
thrown about the murderous profession; 80
he sold his commission and entered the
church, thinking that as he was an intelli-
do more good to humanity in that line than
in the other line.
Chapter IV.-One day, discoursing to q
rustic congregation on the folly of using pro-
fame language, he told them that he himself
was once guilty of the same folly, and adj
dcted to the same vice but that he had COM
pletcly conquered the habit.
Chapter VA flying insect hearing the
boast, winked his eye at the congregation
and thought "I'll put him to the test" So
making circuit round the old gentleman
head, he lit upon his nose.
"see! !" said the reverend gentleman
here is an illustration. At one time
should have sworn awfully at this Ay-bu
look now" Raising his hand, he said gent
ly. "Go away little fly, 90 array" Blu
the fly only tickled his nose the more.
The reverend gentleman, raising his hant
with some vehemence, made a grab at the
offender; and, being successful, opened it Il
throw the insect from him, in extreme dis
gust, he exclaimed. "Why, d-n it, it's {
caSp"
Horror of the rustic congregation, failure
of the illustration and the end.

LOCAL NEWS.

I am glad" said Judkins, you put the
piece in the paper about Smith. A local
paper should give all the local news, let it
hit whom it may"
A few weeks after, Judkins' name ap.
peared in the paper in connection with an
affair which he fanecd placed him in a
rather unfavorable light Directly he ap-
peared in the Office in a towering rage. Said
he:
"What in th-r did you publish that
piece about me for?"
"Well," we replied, a local paper should
give all the local news"
Local news be hanged! /" said he, -four
ishing his arms about in dangerous man
ner. "None of your local news about me
any more print as much of it as you please
about other folks, but no more about me-"
And as he departed from the sanctum, he
didn't act bit like a christian. Such is an
editors life.

THE CANDIDATE.

Father, who travels the road so late ?"
Hush, my child tits the candidate.
Fit example of human woes
Early he comes and late he goes;
He greets the women, with courtly grace,
He kisses the baby's dirty face,
He calls to the fence the farmer at work,
He bores the merchant, he bores the clerk.
The blacksmith, while the anvil rings,
He greets, and this is the song he sings:
"Howdy, howdy, howdy do?
How is your wife, and how are you7
All it fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand of the workingmanI
Husband, who is that man at the gate"
Hush, my love 'tis the candidate"
Husband, why can't he work like your
Has he got nothing at home to doW
My dear, whenever a man is down.
No cash at home, no money in town.
Too stupid to preach, too proud to beg,
Too timid to rob, too lazy to dig,
Then over his horse his legs he filings,
And to the dear people his song he sings
az IIowdy, howdy, howdy do?
How is your wife, and how are you?
All! it fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand of she workingman."
Brothers who labor early and late,
Ask these things of the candidate:
What's his record. How does he stand
At home? No matter about his hand,
Be it hard or soft, so be it prone
To close over money not his own.
Has he in view no thieving plan?
Is he honest or capable ?-is he our man?
Cheer such a one till the welkin rings,
Join in the chorous when thus he sings:
Howdy, howdy, howdy do?
How is your wife, and how are you?
All! 1t fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand of the workingman."

Away among the Alleghanes there is
a spring so small that an OK, in a summers
day, could drain it dry. 1t steals its unob-
trusive way among the hills till it spreads
out in beautiful Ohio. Thence it stretches
away thousand miles, leaving on its banks
more than a hundred villages and cities and
many thousand cultivated farms, and bear
ing on its bosom more that half thousand
steamboats,. Then, joining the Mississippi,
it stretches away and away some 200 miles
more, till it falls into the great emblem of
eternity. 1t is one of the great tributaries
of the ocean which, obedient only to God,
shall roar till the angel, with one foot on
the sea and the other on the land, shall lift
up his hand to heaven and swear that time
shall beno longer, So with moral influence.
1t is a rill-a riyulet-a river-an ocean
boundless and fathomless as eternity.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher in a sermon
on future punishment on Sunday morning,
among other things, said this: "The old ten
commandments belong to the barbaric state.
They are a story of negatives, 1t is not un-
Ill you get down into the New Testament
that you find "Thou Shalt" believe in the
justice OF God. believe that punishment
exists, both here and hereafter but it will
not continue after it ceases to do good,
With a God who would give pain for pains
sake, this world would go out like acandle."
Talmage gave a report of an underground
exploring expedition among the purleus of
sin and misery, and took occasion to thank
the press for nn audience of 100000 every
week. He said: Let the newspapers criti-
else, am Indebted to the press what never
can repay. So, slash away gentlemen. If
there is anything l despise it is a dull time.
Press criticism is Turkish towel with
which every public man needs to be rubbed
every day in order TO create a circulation"
