Gated, have had good opportunities in their
earlier days, and though estranged from the
conventionalities of society, are endowed
with common sense, which is the best code
of etiquet extant, and are better capable of
making a woman happy than any class of
men in any country. That these men need
wives there is no doubt, but to say that they
want to marry would be p%resumptious on
our part. Most Of them would marry per-
haps, if they could meet their ideal of a
woman, but few would be contented to
TRUST their happiness to- such a wheel of for
tune as a "wife selecting bureau"
We would say to the ladies OF the states,
Come west; try your fortunes among the
bachelors of Montana, and if you do not
draw a prize it will be your lack OF judg-
ment and not the fault of the market. just
what kind Of a woman that would be most
| attractive it would be difficult to tell as the
demand would cover as great q variety as in
any other country, as mountaineers, like all
other men, want co-helpers and companions.
Let the young lady who is thrown upon
her own resources for support come west.
Montana wants a thousand such women to-
day to do house work. The heather Chinee
upon which our people depend, are treach-
erous and unreliable, and would cease to
find employment if their places could be
supplied with trustworthy, industrious wo-
men. Thus, while providing for themselves
in a better manner than would be possible
for them to do in the states, they would
have an opportunity of winning some one of
our many bachelors in a manner in which
their motives could not be construed as
merely mercenary. The talismanic words
of success to the single women. of the states,
in the language OF our eastern contemporary,
is go west young woman, 60 west.'

narration of the memorable Indiap cam
paign of 1875, with a brief though mastery
review of the narrowing incidents of bor-
der lite, the wrongs perpetrated through
the humane () Indian policy, and the brutal
revenge of the untutored savages npon the
innocent settler, which led to the war. This
through, he begins the everyday occurren-
ces Of camp life in his usual, entertaining
style. We commenced the papers with our

"IN AN exchange we find a description Of
a South American tree which gives, milk.
Since reading the account we are not only
satisfied that the editor OF; a certain agricul-
tural paper passed his infancy in South
America. but furthermore we are convinced
he was sucked by that identical tree. 1t
was thus that he inherited his wooden head,

This may Or may not be the opinion of
our contemporary, for, as on railroad matters,
he is tablet to express himself to the reverse

THE attention of stock-men. everywhere
is called to the article of r. S. Ford, of Sun
river, President Of the Stock-growers' asso-
cation, to be found in our stock department.
Some of the most practical advantages of
organization, and cooperation are ably set
forth. Stock-growers of every section
