News From Fort Macleod,

Fort MACLEOD, April 5, 1881.
To the Editor RIVER PRESS:
Since my last we have had happenings il
our neighborhood that may be Of interest to
some Of your readers.
A young man by the name Of McKeoWen
arrived from Edmonton with more ssrackets''
than are usual with young men Of the nine
teenth century. He first opened up with the
Old-time game called "thimble rig and
caught some Of the boys for q few dollars ;
he then went to changing one dollar bills into
tours, and was caught by the police, who are
always on the watch for such fellows, and
sentenced three years in the penitentiary at
Winnepeg.
The weather has been unusually fine here
since March 1st, and farmers have finished
sowing their grain and we expect an early
harvest.
The police have received orders for the re
moval Of Fort Macleod from this place to
Pinchar creek, thirty miles above, in the
vicinity Of the Rocky Mountains. We ex-
pect good times this summer.
You can see the old-time sign posted up in
our midst to the effect, ''My wife having left
my bed and board" ETC., which brings to
our minds that we are closer to civilization
than we thought for. Since the arrival of
the last mail the boys are having q glorious
time. Permits that have been detained all
winter have at last arrived, and they are max
up for lost time.
One Of the Police boys, having become
tired of the dreary life which they lead in
this place, thinking to make 8 change for the
better, started to join the stars and stripes
was overliauled and brought back. He con-
tents himself now by singing the old ~favorite,
'In the prison cell | sit thinking Yankees
dear of you"
The Indians are coming in every day, and
you can soon congratulate yourselves Of be-
ing rid Of some Of the worst Indians on the
globe, but what you loose we gain. Mr.. 0.
S. Main, the butcher here, is doing a big
business feeding the hungry savage.
The epizootic is very bad here among the
horses; the Indians will loose q good many
having had q hard winter. Other stock is
doing we'll. 4 small band of sheep tina
came il here last fall have wintered il splen-
did shape. They belong to q man by the
name Of Gotchie; he bought them some
where in Montana.
VIM. Boyz has closed out in this place and
will be in Benton before this reaches there,
We regret the loss of such g valuable man
he leaves many friends behind him.

THE staying Of the Gear is the visible
harvest OF the seed sown by Michael
Bskunln, who may be called the father Of
Nihilism, who said in a course Of q speech
made in 1868 al Geneva:
"0ur first work must be the destruction
and annihilGtion Of everything as It now
exists. You must aCCustom yourself to
destroy everything, the good with the bad
for II but an atom Of this old world re-
mains the new will never be created"
In another speech the thorouGhgoing
Bakunin said:
"Deeds Of political assassination and in.
Cendiarism are not the offspring OF any
sentiment oil personal hatred or vengeance

who In his turn will nominate the Chiefs

The more attacks are made on the Gear

people get to understand the absurdity Of
the veneration with which these person.

"a GENIUS FOR HELPING Folks.
There is a man." said his neighbor,
speaking of village carpenter, 'who
has done more good, really believe, in
this community, than any other person
who ever lived in it. He cannot talk
very we'll IN prayer-meeting, and he
doesn't often try. He isn't worth two
thousand dollars, and it's very little
that he can put down on subscription
papers for any worthy object. But a
new family never moves into the village
that he does not find them out, to give
them neighborly welcome, and offer
any little service he can render. He is
usually on the lookout to give strangers
seat in his pew at church. He is
always ready to watch with sick neigh
Dor, and look after his affairs for him.
He finds time for pleasant word for
every child he meets, and you'll always
see them climbing into his wagon when
he has no other load. He really seems
to have genius for helping folks in all
sorts of common ways. and it does me
good every day just to meet him on the
| streets. - Christian Observer.

NAMES LIQUOR LAw.-Maine has at
last got liquor law to evade which will
require the utmost ingenuity of the wine
sellers and the wine bibbers. Thus far
loop-hole of some sort has always been
found in the statutes framed on the
subject. When the ordinary saloon
keeper is compelled to put up his shut
tiers the private clubs came into exist
ence, and when payment for liquor was
prohibited the dispenser of the beverage
found way of giving it away, and at
the same time reaping the usual mercan-
tile profit. Giving liquor away is to be
remorselessly punished. A person found
intoxicated either on the street or in his
own house shall be sent to Jail for thirty
days. and if he undertakes to do the
thing second time he will be given g
vacation and an opportunity to reform
for term three times as long. Maine
seems to be in earnest this time.

Free Rum, and Free Crime, and Free
Misery 60 in company. And yet there
are multitudes who advocate the whole
catalogue in opposing all efforts that
are made to stop the fountain. Few and
feeble are the barriers which the people
and the law makers are willing to set
up and maintain against the tide of
iniquity and wretchedness which is flow
ing over the land, and which has its
source in the scarcely restricted sale of
intoxicating, maddening drinks. But
we are thankful when, even in single
instances, the poor and helpless victims
are protected and the monsters who
make them wretched are made to suffer.
Perhaps the time will comet seems
to be coming,-when public sentiment
will put an effectual check upon the
flood by making those who are engaged
in the sale of rum responsible for tn,
consequences of the traffic.

How can man trust in his own
righteousness ? 1t is like seeking shell
ter under ones own shadow. He may
stOOp to the very ground, and the lower
he bends he still finds that his shadow
is beneath him. But if man flee to
the shadow of great rock or of wide
spreading tree. he will find abundant
shelter from the rays of the monday
sun. So human merits are unavailing
and Christ alone is able to save to the
uttermost those who come unto God by
Him.
