The latter was perhaps in most re-

Benedict has bright future before
him, if he maintains his devotion to
the higher models of musical art,
which he succeeded in interpreting so
finely last evening.
"Miss Nellie Benedict has a fresh
and sweet soprano voice, which gives
evidence of great power and compass

A gentleman who has just returned

that the people are talking OF organizing

not necessary to take chances OF losing
life or property in crossing treacherous
streams. For. a month past Belt has
been bank full and the man who at
tempts to ford it runs q serious risk.
They cannot see that there is any dispo-
sition on the part of the county commits
sioners to bridge the creek and naturally

dissatisfied ranchmen and atockmen
may be included those Of Belt, Sane
Coulee and the Chestnut valley--a vel

to Benton. Belt creek is the only obsta

built across this stream. It would assist
materially in settling up that country
and bring thousands of dollars annually
to Benton in the way of trade. The d.
rect road to the Montana district and the
best road to Barker is by way OF Belt
creek and If this bridge is constructed
the road will at once become an import
ant one. At the meeting OF the board
of commissioners soon to be held a petit
ton signed by hundreds OF taxpayers
will be presented to that honorable body
asking for this needed public improve

A CORRESPONDENT who has been
making a tour of the mountain empire
arrives at the following conclusion, based
upon what he observed: II am certain
that this great territory, 500 miles long
and 800 miles wide, contains more natu-
raj wealth than any other state or terri
tory in the union. It is the least known,
with perhaps the exception of Idaho;
but if what has been discovered of its
mineral is a fair standard, II I
very short time all the rest OF the IN OH
will have to yield the palm to this 1av
Ored section Of our country. 1t is curl
Gus to compare the surface Of Montana
with that OF her great neighbor, Dakota.
Dakota is peculiarly a farming country,
while Montana is a mining and grazing
country. Dakota rolls smoothly away
in gentle undulations, not unlike the
swells Of the ocean. From the summit
of these swells the eye becomes ia
tigued with the sameness of the land
scape. Montana, or the other hand, is
adorned with majestic scenery of rock
and mountain, In whose bowels are
secreted every variety of metal. About
one-half of the territory is mountainous,
the other half being good arabic land
capable of the highest cultivation, yield
ing abundantly agricultural products Of
all descriptions.e
