THE land grant to the Northern Pacific
railroad will not be disturbed. The Judiciary
Committee, of the House have decided almost
unanimously to report adversely on Cobbs
bill declaring the lands of this corporation
forfeited. This is as it should be. There
may be cases where railroad companies have
acted in bad faith, failing to perform well
and truly their part of the agreement with
the government, but the charge should not be
laid up against a company thai is spanning
the continent at the rate of one and three
quarter miles per day, making the wilderness
which it traverses blossom like the rose.

The advantage of Benton's position at the

The advantage of Benton's position at the
head of navig alton on the Missouri is fully
appreciated at this time. The boats are
bringing thousands of tons of goods at low
freight rates, while all exports are sent to
the eastern markets at one fourth the cost
they can be shipped from other trade centers
in the Territory. These advantages enable
Benton merchants to pay higher prices for
WOOL, robes, etc, and at the same time they
can sell supplies of all kind at much lower
figures than the merchants of other towns
in the Territory. 1t is an advantage to be
appreciated, and 1t easily accounts for the
wonderful business transacted here annually.
With the upper river improved, as it will be
within the next two years. this advantage of
favorable location will be even more readily
perceived, and will operate to advance rapid
ly the progress of our town and tributary
country. The twin cities of st. Paul and
Minneapolis have grown up at the head of
navigation on the Mississippi, and Benton,
the head of navigation on the Missouri, is
following slowly in their footsteps. The St.
Paul of the new northwest will grow up
within the next decade in this pleasant valley.

HE Republican papers of the Territory
are crying out against the apportionment bill
introduced in Congress by Delegate Magin-
mis-, and which is reprinted elsewhere in
these columns. The principal objection is
that the Apportionment Board-consist.ng
of the Governor, President Of the Council
and Speaker of the House-would be a par
tisan Board. and that the result OF their la
bors would be a wicked gerrymander In the
interests of the Democracy. We don't doubt
for a moment but that the districts would be
made favorable to the party in the majority,
but is is difficult to see how they could shape
them any worse than they are at present.
We believe that the new apportionment, even
though made on a partisan basis, would be
better for the Republicans than the present
one, and at the same time it would provide
Tor the proper representation of Silver Bow
county. Ii there is no ether way OF reach
ing the desired result this bill should certain
ly become a law.

A Benton Railroad.

On the 18th inst. a Northern Pacific survey
party started from Billings to survey a route
to Benton for the proposed branch of the
Northern Pacific road. The party consists
OF D. L. Hastings, chief; A. P. Mitchell,
transit; Burr FIELD, level; W. R. Melon
aid, topographer J. D.. Murphy, assistant
topographer; E. L.. Field and Q. Fl. Martz
rod men, together with several assistants.
The party started up the valley of Alkali
creek, and will make for the Judith Gap,
passing through the Basin, and thence b.
the most practicable route to Benton. 1t will
not be many weeks until the surveyors are
here. This road will pass through one Of
the finest agricultural and stock growing
countries in the West, and will be without
a superior as a feeder of the great transcon-
tinental line of which it is to be a part. The
Benton branch is looming, and the day of
its completion is not far distant.

STOCK NOTES..

The Sun River round up party has COM
menced work.
The number of calves on the ranges this
year is unusually large.
Sheep shearing will be commenced by
some of our wool growers on the first of June.
In a letter to the Husbandman Paris Glib
son says Montana wool is greatly esteemed
by eastern purchasers.
Twenty five dollars a head for a general
herd, from yearlings up, is a big price for
Montana, but stockman are getting it right
along.
Ford & Dunn, of Sun River, have pur-
chased Kyle Prices band of cattle, number
ing eight hundred head. Purchase price, $25
q head all around.
The wool growers of Montana will reap g.
goodly harvest this year. The crop of lambs
is a big one and the wool clip will exceed
that of any former year.
George M. Hatch, of Wallace & Hatch,
has started to Miles City with a band Of
5000 mutton sheep. He will shear at the
the latter place and then sell in the best mar
ket he can find.
Montana stockmen are bringing in thor
oughbreds by the hundreds, and in ayear or
two a wonderful improvement in the general
herds of the Territory will be manifest. This
applies to horses, cattle and sheep.
!. Asa Samples shipped 100 head of cattle to
Bismarck on the Benton. Every boat that
goes down is loaded with bovines, and still
the cry is for more Montana beef. Mr.. Sam
pies is displaying considerable enterprise in
this matter and deserves the need of success.
Major Turner, dealer in thoroughbred cat
tie and horses, will locate near Benton and
establish a stock ranch near Benton ere long.
He is in hopes that Major Maginnis will get
the Blackfoot reservation bill through so that
he can take up a ranch upon the land that is
now set apart for, but never used by, the In
dams.
The Cochrane cattle company have pur-
chased the entire band of cattle owned by
Poindexter s. Orr, Of Beaverhead county,
numbering 5000 head, for which they paid
$25 d head, or in the aggregate, $3.50, 600.
This is one Of the fnest bands of cattle in
Montana, most Of them being high bred
grades of the Durham stock. They will be
driven to the ranch of the company on Bow
river, where Messrs. Cochrane & Co. will
soon nave 90, 900 head, of a value of scarcely
less than q million dollars.

Sing Sing was incorporated in 1913, and
is now a place with about 5000 inhabitants.
The village itself is nearly 200 feet above
the water, and the flr-iamed prison is built
very near the river. Sing Sing is n name
of Indian origin, it is said, meaning stone
upon stone or from Ossining, "a strong
place. The place was settled in the sew
enteeth century. The town extends back
from the river about n mile, and along the
river for about two miles from north to
south. There are Episcopal, Methodist,
Presbyterian, Baptist and Catholic church
es, an academy over half a century in ope-
ration, a military and other schools, several
newspapers, ~cotton-gin and c%otton-gin saw
factories, lawn-mowor, steam engine, and
other establishments. The prison is also
there, completed in 1880, and since that
time it has been enlarged to meet the
wants of that part of the State. New
York is almost entirely supplied with ice
from the neighborhood, while Croton Lake
near by, contributes daily about 60,000,0Ot
gallons of water to the supply of the En-
pire City. The water is conveyed from
the lake, which is chiefly by n dam being
built across II, through an aqueduct thirty.
three miles long, right on TO New York
The aqueduct is built of stone, brick, ant
cement, arched above and below, sever
feet eight inches wide at the top. and si'
feet three inches at the bottom, the sid'
walls being eight feet five inches high.
