MADISON county is alive to her live stock

from the Madisonian:
On Saturday evening. the 22d ult.. a meet

s~tock-growers' association was organized
with Alex. Metzel as President, J.. B Snapp,
Vice President; John Donegan, Secretary,
n John j. Williams, Treasurer. The Ex-
ecutive Committee are Frank Lane, John
Murphy, Isaiah Porter, Capt. JAS. Williams
and w. I. Dehorty. There was great inter
est shown in the proceedings, the harmony
of which is a good augury of the success of
the institution. The constitution and by
laws are substantially the same as those of
Montana Stock-Growers' Association.
The organization Of local associations
such as the above is OF vast Importance,
since the membership of the Territorial as

resentation of these different bodies after its

at the fall meeting. All that is necessary
to secure prompt action is for some one to
take the lead in the matter. Any informa-
ton necessary will be furnished with pleas
ure by the Secretary or President of the
territorial association. Let the movement
be co-extensive with stock-growers of our
territory. Their interests are mutual and
have all to gain andnothing to lose by har-
mony and concert of action. What section
shall we hear from next?

If all mems experience with the horse
were alike, advice might seem mere unwar-
rantable presumption, but not even then
should it be SO considered, while both men
and horses so widely differ. A good horse
is n well suited to the service he is en-
ployed in, be that what it may, and such
horse is worth more to his owner than he
will sell for. But a horse of the best gener-
al qualities is worth less tLan nothing to
one who has no use for him, unless he sells
him for just what he can get. The pre-
sumption then is that all horses kept are
needed. 10 raise and fit a horse for his
work in Eastern Pennsylvania costs, all
things considered, about five hundred dol
lars--I know that this will be strongly dis
puted, but | also know how so, and I: don't
care Tor any amount of contradiction-and
he IS WORTH this sum to the owner he suits !:
but sells for less than half that, when he is
not needed, or does not suit his business. or
has a detect Of soundness. etc. Talking
about not missing What a thing costs is the
poorest kind of mathematical nonsense The

none the less good and omliscious reasons
for using him kindly, If he bta rational and

In the untamed state a horse has no dis

the domestic condition he has many, and, il
fact, the sound animal is the exception ant

turn of this forfeited estate, an estate that
in any other country but America would
have been forfeited beyond repossession.
All through this case the son and heir has
been kept in the background, as though he
were an innocent babe, not of age and
therefore not responsible &C. But we read
of late that he was old enough to be in the
war himself Though like many of the sons
of the first families of the South, he
seems to have been kept out Of harms way,
given some mild post Of duty free
from the danger of the bullets fired
by the true men in blue who
now lie buried upon the Arlington
estate, But toward the close of the war
when his presence was needed as an exam
pie to still prop up the defunct and un-
holy Confederacy, and to cause the needless
sacrifice Of more and more millions Of dol
lars and thousands and thousands Of pre-
cious lives and heart-aches and yearnings,
the value of which the world can never
know-to keep up the treadmills of sla-
very and disunion-to protract its fendish
labors-he seems to have come to the front
and tried his utmost TO add protraction to
protraction, and for this he must receive q
high reward. AS this man was of age sulli-
cient to realize what he was doing, he must
at least be responsible for no small share of
this enormous sacrifice. The mere money
expense per day was enough to buy forty
such estates as this was before its present
value and honor was given TO it. Congress
thus far has stood firm and treated with be-
coming contempt all measures looking
toward the surrender of this national ceme-
terry back to those who made not only this
cemetery necessity, but many others
throughout the country. And we think
that all their former decisions and actions
in the matter were based upon the highest
moral grounds, and we trust that their ac-
tons may be again and again indorsed if
need be, and that the Arlington estate may
be allowed to remain the burial place
of the honored martyrs whose many
comrades were added to the list of the dead
for the reason that he who now claims to be
its heir was one of those who helped pro-
long the war; and thereby added millions to
the public debt and thousands of lives in
sacrifice that he and his might break up the
Union and in its place build up II vile slave
oligarchy that would have been founded on
every principle which was base TO us rs n
people and degrading to us rs civilized
power.
final ingenious plea in the case seems
to be that Mr.. LEE only wants to 90 through
the mere form of having the estate returned
to him (; that he will then sell it to the coun-
try, and will not attempt to disturb its
present relations The country has already
paid very, very dear, for this estate, and
those who would reclaim il haye caused
enormous expenditures to the Government.
We trust that this point will not be lost
sight Of We do not think that the Govern
| ment owes him anything-not q single cent.

ships ii is only necessary to cite one case as
sample as they attach to all alike, and in
about the same proportion. The salary of
the American Minister at Berlin is $17,500,
while the British Minister there receives
S6OOO0 and the Ministers of other European
powers are equally well compensated. I'm
der such circumstances it is not possible for
the American Ambassador to sustain style
and course Of life in diplomatic circles of
equal dignity aud respectability without
providing largely from his private means.
He must do this, or take an inferior posi-
tion in the social scale, and be regarded
as n mean representative, or the representa-
tive of mean Government. TO avoid such
unpleasant conclusions our Ministers
abroad, in most instances, spend from their
private resources as much money as they
receive from the Government MS salary.
In conversation a few evenings since
with former Minister TO second-class
mission within European Power we
learned that his soiourn at that court had
taxed his private purse TO an amount above
$4,000 to sustain the dignities of his posi-
ton while there, and that, too under the
possibly be exercised within the limits of
propriety. These facts go 10 show that this
Government is constantly belittliug itself
and its representatives abroad by system
of parsimony that borders upon maauness.
True we claim TO be people of republic
can simplicity, but we have widely out
grown the habits, tastes, and conditions of
our ancestors. We have become q
great nation of progressive peo-
pie, with intelligence, wealth, ell
terprise, and advancement to be repre-
sented by our ministers abroad, and that
can only be done by enabling them to keep
pace with the representatives of other Pow
ers, which are not our superors in anything
relating to national greatness, intelligence,
refinement, or progress. Otherwise we
lose respectabiity and influence in the
diplomatic world, and must accept posi-
ton of inieriorty, however much we may
intrinsically deserve better fate. We re-
gard it MS mistaken and humiliating pol
icy ON the part of this Government to stint
its representatives abroad with limited
and parsimonious salaries, which Grip
pies their influence or subjects their
own resources TO severe taxation, This
policy is unbecoming q nation which
holds rank with the proudest and most
powerful of the Old World, and is making
rapid strides which within another century
will ouistrip them all on the race of national
progress. If we cannot afford to provide
amply for the positions incident upon for
egn representation, we had better abolish
our diplomatic system and live within our
selves under domestic humiliation rather
than afford meagre support to those we
send abroad, and subject them 10 deep
modification under the eye of foreign poten-
tates and Powers. We can, perhaps, afford
to be mean with each other at home, but
we cannot afford to publish our meanness tC
all the civilized Powers of the earth.
