Discovery Of Pass for the Canadian Pa
c1fic in the Selkirk Range.

-----
One Of the most important items con
nected with the progress of the work on
the Canadian Pacific is contained in the
following: Engineer Maj. A. B. Rogers
telegraphs to President Hill of the Man
itoba line that he has succeeded in find
ing q feasible pass through the Selkirk
or Gold range in British Columbia.
This discovery has immense value, as it
determines the route of the Canadian
Pacific, locating it about 100 miles north
of the boundary line, directly east of
Kamloops. From kamloops it will be
nearly an air line to Winnipeg and
Thunder bay. The line will be about
100 miles south of Yellowhead pass, thus
doing away with the necessity of the far
northwestern detour as laid out by the
government survey. This il the second
summer that Maj. Rogers has spent in
British Columbia. Everybody said he
could not find the pass, but he has done
it, and the Canadian Pacific authorities
are happy.

Newspapers az Educators.

4 school teacher who has been a long
time engaged III his profession, and
witnessed the influence of a newspaper
on the minds of "a family of children,
writes as follows: I have found it to be
a universal fact, without exception, that
those scholars Of both sexes and all ages,
who have access to newspapers at home,
when compared with those who have
not, are better readers, excellent in pro-
nunciation, have consequently read
more and Understandings. They are
better spoilers and define words with
ease and accuracy. They obtain practi-
cal knowledge of geography in almost
half the time it requires of others, as the.
newspapers have made them acquainted
with the location of the important places
of nature, their government, and doings
on the globe. They are better gram
marians, for, having become so familiar
with every style in the newspapers,
from the commonplace advertisements
to the finisheda and classical grafton of
the statesman, they more readily COM
prehend the meaning of the text, and
consequently analyze its construction
with accuracy. They write better COM
positions, using better Language, correct
ly expressed. Those young men who
have for years been readers of newspa-
pers, and are always taking the lead in
debating societies, exhibit a more extern
sive knowledge upon q greater variety
of subjects, and express their views with
greater fiuency, clearness and correct
ness.

reference to Montana's new Governor:
Colonel John Schuyler Crosby, lately
appointed Governor of Montana, has ac-
cepted the position, and will leave Flor
ence, where he at present represents the
United States in a consular capacity, in

He was born in New York City Sep

of William Floyd, of the signers of
the Declaration of independence, and a
lineal descendant of General Philip
Schuyler. he entered the regular army
as First Lieutenant of the First Artil-
lery i'll 1861 and served with his battery

Of the Potomac. Then he became a mem
Der Of General Banks staff, and was bre-
vetted captain for gallantry at the battle
of Fort Brisbane, and major for gallan-
try during the Fort Hudson campaign.
In August, 1864, he was commissioned
colonel of the Seventh Heavy Artillery
by Governor Seymour, butdeclined. He
subsequently served on the staffs of Gen
erals Candy and Sheridan. He resigned
from the army in 1872, and in 1915 was

Vice President Cakes of the Northern
Pacific railroad company, has author
lied the general manager to guarantee
all benefits payable by the association to
its members to the extent Of $4,000 per
annum. This is practically a contribu-
ton to the funds by the Northern Paci-
tc company OF 500 900, if interest be
considered at 6 per cent; but at the rates
of government bonds it would be equiv
aient to not less than $780, 900 invested
in such securities for the benefit of the
association. The company also agrees
to putt in complete order and turn overto
the association, free of charge, the large
new building now used as a hospstal at
Brainard. AIsa to erect such additional
buildings as may be required from time
to time without cost to the association.
The local treasurer of the Northern Pa
cific railroad company is authorized to
act as custodian of the funds without
charge. The Northern Pacific railroad
company also agrees to furnish all
blanks, forms and stationery, which will
be no small item. q large part of the
consideration to be paid to local physi-
clans will consist Of free transportation
over the railroad and this will also be
furnished by the company, and relieves
the association of expenses to that ex-
tent. With these liberal concessions on
the part of the company, it is reasonable
to infer that the amount of benefits to be
paid to members in ease of sickness or
accident, in proportion to their contri-
buttons to the funds will be largely in
excess Of the benefits payable in volun-
fairy unions or associations, where no
guarantee is given, and where, if the
funds become exhausted, there can be
no further payments without additional
assessments upon members. It is also
proposed, that wherever shops may be
located, neat and comfortable dwellings
shall be erected by the company, to be

LEAVING THE AGENCY.
A Great Number of Piegans Leave the
Agency to Rustic for Themselves
What may Result from the
Starvation Policy OF
the Government.

In confirmation of what the RIVER
PRESS hadto say on the subject we quote
the following from the Independent in
regard to the Indian troubles at Black
foot agency:
We are informed that about three
fourths of the Piegan Indians of Black
foot agency, under Major Young, have
left the agency and are out rustling for
themselves. The total number of In
dams belonging at the agency is about
1000, and there are now only about 800
there. One cause of this move on the
part of the Indians was that they gained
the impression that their arms were to
be taken away from them, and when
troops were stationed on Birch creek,
some twelve miles distant from the
agency, the majority of the Indians left.
This occurred some three or four weeks
ago. 4 startling rumor at the same
time gained currency in the tribe tina
the rigorous Fort Baker method of dis
ciplining the red men was to be again
put in practice. The Piegans therefore
concluded that the best thing for them
to do was to get out where they would
have plenty Of elbow room.
Men who are well acquainted with
the circumstances of the Piegans say
that the Government does not make
sufficient provision for the su%stenance of
these Indians. 1t is a notable fact that
within the past year more depredations
have been laid at the door of this tribe
than for any corresponding period in
the past. This has in the main been
due to the fact that they have been poor
ly fed; while the rations issued to them
had previously been sufficiently scant, a
more recent tightening of Uncle Sans
purse strings reduced their supply of
provisions until it vas totally inadequate
to their wants. They became hungry
and dissatisfied, and when an Indian
gets in that condition the only effectual
plan known to his untutored mind for
putting his sorrows out of sight is to go
out and steal a few horses, or engage in
some other similar diversion. It is the
opinion oil l1eai VINO are Wei ACC II
with this tribe that the most successful
III of preventing their incursions
against the settlers is to give them
enough to eat. If this were done they
believe the whites would have little to
complain Of so far as the Piegans are
concerned.
1t would be we'll for the department
to inquire into this matter and if the Pie
gans are mot sufficiently provided for,
attend to their needs at once. They are
just now In an immediate state between
peaceableness and hostility, and by
prompt action can be brought back to
their agency without difficulty, where
they will remain if provision is made
for their support. On the other hand,
if this is not done, the stoCkmen will be
the sufferers, for a hungry Indian has
no conscientious .scruples against slaugh-
tering other peoples cattle and stealing
their horses.
