We clip the following from letter re
ceived from Mr.. Fl. r. Hammond, of Lans-
ing, Kansas:
am interested in Montana, as l am to
be identified with her interests, and having
seen and been made to feel the effects OF
robbing people of their capital to build
railroads; robbing them year after year
in onerous tax offreight charges, based on
fictitious capital, to carry produce to dis
tant markets and finally force the people to
emigrate to escape confiscatiOn of
their homes. Don't subsidize any rail-
road. Don't exempt any railroad from its
burden of tax. Increase IT if possible, for
they are worse than poison to any people
or country until there enough of them to
neutralize each other. When a country is
rich and pOpulOus enough to need rail-
road, men enough will be found to build it
and not cost the people anything except to
pay its charges, and if they become too
Onerous the people can then invest their
money and build and own road of their
own. Not as they do now, give the price
and first cost of the road in bonds to a few
men and let the few men own the road,
water its stock five to six times its value on
which it must pay dividends Off to 10 per
cent, to be paid out of the peoples hard
and who are required to also pay
interest on first cost and also levy for sink
ing fund to pay bonds, and, altogether,
utterly ruin the country invest

Last Saturday being the anniversary OF
the birthday of the ''Father of his coun-

event by an elegant supper in their hall at
the Post, provided by Sister and Brother
Frdericks. to whom great praise is due
for the handsome manner in which they
supplied the wants of the inner man. The
evening was cnlivened by dramatic and
variety entertainment, consisting ola farce,
comic sketches, songs, dances, etc., the
characters in which were ably sustained
by members of the two Temperance soci-
cites above mentioned. 1t would be invid-
ious to single out any particular character
for special commentator where all acquit-

not refrain from noticing the female i'm

Question.
HELENA. February Is, 1879.


Editor Auant Courier:
In the letter of your regular correspond
ent. dated 9th inst, is an error which. in
the interest of the truth. | desire to see
corrected. The book of discipline of the
Methodist Church is sufficiently explicit
to render it altogether unnecessary to warn
its own members against the influence of
the theatrical profession. Whether the
discipline is right or wrong in its estimate
of evil is not at all pertinent to the case
cited by your correspondent, which has
reference to two, albeit worthy young
men, now in the employ Of Mr.. Sawtclle.
They were members of the NJ f. Church.
For pecuniary reasons they accepted posi-
tons incompatible with the rule and teach
ings of their Church. By their own laws,
the society could not turn them out with
out trial. Rather than suffer the annoy
ance of trial, the issue of which could
not be doubted, and bring scandal upon a
cause they protested to love. both young
men wisely withdrew. They found them
selves in a position where it was necessary
10 choose between the position they held
and the Church-preferring the former
they Withdrew from the latter.
