FROM DEER LODGE COUNTY.

EDITOR HUsBANDMAN The incident of
the extraordinary session just past has af-
forded us mortals here in this ragged por-
ton of the mundane sphere much diversion
of thought, as we here and there catch Il
glimpse OF their Legislative proceedings.
What a pity it is that Lewis and Clarke
county should not have the opportunity to
tax themselves for a railroad If the tax
should become burdensome SO that the
county didn't feel like paying their own
s.piper,' all they would have to Go would
be to beseige some extraordinary session of
the Legislature, as good old Missoula coun-
ty has now done, at the portals of the pres
ent session, to have the territory have all
the other counties of the territory go secu-
rily on her bonds, so as to endorse her cred
it brought low by her officials. just think
of Missoula county, full Of cereals and fruit
full abundance, begging territorial endorse
ment of her credit. Yes, and the Hon.
Samuel Word tells us "that Missoula coua-
ty didn't expect the territory will ever have
to pay her bonds" In the name of sright
reason" belonging to that astute gentleman,
why establish such a precedent, if that
county did not expect the territory to pay,
in case of the failure of Missoula county TO
pay the bondholders as specified in the
bond? Why was he called upon as a mem
Der from Madison county to bind the tax
payers of Madison county to pay Missoula
county's bonds in case of their failure to do
SO? It seems that an opportunity offered
whereby a benevolent gush on the part of
the territory to assume the Indebtedness of
protligate count les had arrived to establish
a precedent, the support Of which, by GER
tain members, would advertise their public
benevolence in binding their constituents in
lawful statute, to pay the. %spendthrift weak
nesses of %neighboring counties. Such a
sprecedent. once established, would, be. a

THE RLACK.LEG CURED.

For the benefit of the readers of the HUs-
BANDMAN, and the stock-growers generally,
| will state that the experiments of L. d.
Smith and myself in applying coal oil as a
remedy for the cattle disease commonly
called backlog, have thus far proved a
complete success. The coal oil is given in
ternally, by holding she animals head up
and forcing it to swallow the liquid. Fol a
yearling we gave one pint of oil in one dose.
For a calf four months old, three gills has
effected a permanent cure.
The coal oil permeates every part OF the
animal and causes circulation of the blood.

TERRITORIAL NEWS.

From private letters recently received by
parties in town. we learn that the Buchan-
an brothers have struck bar digginegs near
the Belt mountains. on the North Fork OF
the Judith, that will pay 81 to $40 to the
hand. Have prospected the bars bars by
tunnefing % to 80 feet deep in several
places and over considerable territory, with
most encouraging results. They could not
reach bedrock on account of water, the
ing quite springy. The boys have SO much
confidence in the country that they went to
Benton and purchased between $500 and
$500 worth of supplies. They have also
discovered some ric!l-looking quartz, speci-
mems of which they have sent to Helena to
be assayed.-Courier.
VIM. V. Meyers, who arrived this morn
ing, brings us news of a serious accident
which occurred near Radersburg yesterday.

Grave legislative error; an indirect way to
bind the taxpayers Of well regulated coun-
ties to nav the liabilities of badly managed
counties in their financial career. 1t such
i 10 be the rule Of action let US blot out
county organizations and let territorial OF
ticials manage all the municipal concerns OF
the territory so as to husband the local re-
sources of the territory preventing the in
lphtedness to occur, which would be better
than allowing counties to acquire deots
which they will, as spendthrlfts, ask the
territory to assume. Such u highway OF
legislative folly would lead county commits
sioners OF the various counties to relax their
economical efforts, to keep down the in
d~ebtedness of their respective political sub
divisions. as counties in the territory. Then
the sainted mortals who believe in issuing
county bonds OF indebtedness for their chill
dren to pay, to bring railroads TO their
kitchen door. can riot under such a prece-
dent, because after years of such folly Il
combination can be made in the legislature
for the territory to assume the indebtedness
of counties agreeing to pay for them, In
case OF their refusal. For Instance, Lewis
and Clarke, Deer Lodge and Madison coun-
ties each, ask the legislature at it's next ses-
sion for the privilege of issuing a few hum
bred thousand dollars in county bonds to
build narrow gauge railroads. They get
the privilege, time rolls on, and the people
in those counties send their legislators to
the capital, and they having a majority OF
members, simply enact that the territory
shall endorse their liabilities. and thus

WE LEARN from the Herald of August %,
that the Government engineer having in
charge the improvement of the Missouri
river, is to be in Helena soon for the pur-
pose, we suppose, of inquiring into the fea-
sibility of the navigation of the Missouri
river above the falls. Helena is vitality in
terested in this matter. IF she would con-
tinue in the future as now, to command the
best freight rates obtainable, it is necessary
that the head of navigation be brought as
near to her as possible. With boats above
the fall she might hope to retain prestage
over all other points in the territory in COM
merce, which will be impossible as it is.
Benton is rapidly asserting her Importance,
and with the terminus OF the Utah & North
ern at Salisbury she will have two rivals,
each of which will draw largely from her
trade. But with the upper river improved
she need not pander to any railroad corpor-
alton, or have any fears of losing her COM
merce.

THE Journal Of Agriculture, a leading
farm journal Of the Mississippi valley, ar
rlyes at a very remarkable conclusion in re-
gard to farming and stock-growing in Mon
tana drawn from a couple of articles that
appeared in the INSTANTANEOUS IN rela-
ton to the black-leg and the other about the
crops and the possibility of grasshoppers
making their appearance. The conclusion
arrived at by our contemporary is that farm
ing and stock-growing are uncertain and
Improbable.
Now, we would not have any one think
that even these, the most certain OF all in
dustries, can be pursued without risk. Such
Il state OF things is not known on earth.
Backlog will kill cattle in Montana just
the same as it does in Illinois or Missouri,
but the percentage Of deaths Is no greater.
AS 10 farming, we have %grasshoppers some
seaasons-yes, clouds of them, that almost
obscure the sun, and they devastate fields 10
an alarming extent, yet after all, We chal-
lenge the world to produce a more prosper
Gus community of farmers than are to be
found in Montana. lOur farmers war with
gr~asshoppers only, while in the great Mis-
sissippi valley, the home Of our eotempo-
rary, the farmers have alternate foods and
drought, army worms, c~hinch-bugs, Hes
sian flies, rust and a thousand and one other
things to diminish their harvests. Let our
brother editor come out and take a Took at
our herds, fiocks and mammoth grain fields
before he is so rash in passing Judgment

RoUEN, July l5.-DeLesseps in a

believed the canal would be completed
in FIVE or six years. This is less than
his former estimate Of the time neces-
sary for the construction of the work.
1t is considered by some that DeLes-
seps would have taken a more prudent
course if instead of asking for a sub
scription of 400, 600 900 francs for the
canal he had formed a small prepare
tory company to make more complete
Investigations.
