A FEW FACTS,
Presented by Col. Botkin in His Speech
Tuesday Evening.

Referring to the Indian reservations,
Mr.. Bo,kin said that there were 25o, 900
indians in the United States and that
they occupied 236, 900 square miles ofthe
territory. The government gave it's citi-
zens each @ homestead of 100 acres; but
IN lians, being more precious and impor-
{. mt, have each-bucks, squaws and pa
pooses, without regard to age, sex or
condition of cussedness-o square
mile. Montana is the worst sufferer.
There are in this territory 46 1000 square
miles of Indian reservations, and it
would be an e~atrayagant estimate to say
that there are 1900 Indians. He said
that for the reduction Of the BlackfDot
and drosVentres r~eservationlae promised
his unconditional support, and that the
demand was s % entrenehed in justice
that he believed its speedy success might
be achieved. Major Maginnis had intro
duced D bill for the purpose, but it had
made no further progress than to be re-
erred to the secretary Of the interior for
q report. The audience were invited to
contrast this with the expedition with
| which the Grow reservation and the
Flathead reservation could be reduced
by Major Maginnis when the Northern
Pacific railroad wanted the right of way.
The military reservations in Montana
| are enormous That of Fort Assinaboine
is the largest in the United States, reach
ing from Beaver Creek to the Coal
Banks, and for no other purpose than to
give BroadWater a monopoly at the Bear
Paw and the landing. The people of
sun River very reasonably asked for the
| reduction of the Fort Shaw reservation.
but their numerously signed petition to
this effect had not even been honored
with an answer by u delegate. Con-
trast this with the expedition with which
Fort Maginnis had been reduced when
one end Of it was wanted by Sam Hau-
ser for q cattle ranch. Mr.. Botkin
closed as follows: The place where we
meet tonight is pregnant with great
suggestions, which he regretted his in
ability to voice. Your city happily bears
the name of the first American states
man to comprehend the continental pro-
portions of the Union. It is the rown

that .'Wilder's Landing was solid Tor

Diary Importance and We're never attend

hicted with those of the firm above

Col. Botk1n arraigned Maginnis for
neglecting the needs and interests Of the
territory in many ways. He has as yet
taken no steps to seeure the admission
OF the territory to the Union, although
the time for such action has fully al
rived; he has not sought to effect any

wells in the territories and Montana has

las not received its proper proportion
of money voted for the Improvement of

direction has Major Maginnis made any
very strenuous efforts in the way Of Sc
curing legislation for the territory unless
Wilder, Broadwater, Efauser & Co. had
something at stake.
Col. Botkin argued in favor OF q gen
raj reduction Of Indian and military
reservations, and in the case Of the
.sIackfeet reservation promised 20 dc
more than Maginnis has done, which

The territory, and maintained that Ben

PARIS GIBSON.
RE Returns from the National Park ard
has Someth ,ng to Say Of Interest
TO Rwer Press Readers.

After an absence Of two or three
months, MI. Paris Gibson returned yes
terdav to Benton. having experienced
during the last few days OF histrip much
Inconvenience OH account OF bad Wea-
Their and worse roads.
Mr.. Gibson has returned directly from
the National Park, where, in company
with q party bf friends, he spent abou
fifteen days md was u most enthusiastic
adnlirer OF naure's handiWork i'll that
wonderful region. He informs US there
have been this season q great many tour
It's in wonderland, more than ever be-
fore, and that each succeeding season
will see the number increased, partlcu-
larly after tAe branch road from the
Northern Padfc is completed. While
prairie and timber fires Were raging
throughout tie west this fall the park
did not escape, the fire fend having
done infinite damage in that section,
burning thousands ofacres OF fnetilnber
as we'll as prairie.
Mr.. Gibson, being q great observer, is
| "cilock fulIn of III ormaticn about Won
| derIand, and It is better than an o din
airy lecture tolisten 10 him. On lis re-
turn he saw agood deal Of the surveyors
who are locating the Benton branch Of
the Northern Pacific. He says the
country is full OF surveyors" and that
three or four lines have already been run
and others will be located during the
fall. The party who were in Benton fol-
lowed a new route from Arrow creek,
going up Surprise creek to Wolf and fol-
lowing the foothills OF the Belt noun
tains to the Gap, a route with which
they were very favorably impressed.
From the Gap TO the railroad two lines
have already been surveyed and a party
is now at work on a third line. Itisfully
expected that the route directly south
from the Judith Gap to the railroad viii
be finally adopted, being SO much short
er and at the same time better than that
to Billings. Mr.. Gibson says he was in
formed by Col. Clough, chief engineer
Of the Yellowstone division, that the
route by way ofthe foothills Of the Bel
mountains and Belt creek to Benton
would be surveyed this fall, and thai
during the winter the definite location
Of the branch would be determined up
on, and that the work Of construction
would begin early next spring and th'
road pushed through to early compile
ton.
Mr.. Gibson is confident Of seeing thes,
results speedily accomplished and i
quite enthusiastic on the subject Of tht
Benton branch. He received a heart,
welcome home from his N my friends
