Cattle In Montana.
From The HusJdndmda. Der. y

Three months ago it was generally be-
lieved that stock cattle had not only reach
ed their maximum figure, but that a mater
ial decline was iminent. Even cattle
owners who had had offers at the going
figures began to feel that they had let the
golden opportunity of selling slip, and that
prices would unavoidsbly tend downward.
But these three months have developed a
very different feeling from what then pre-
vailed An unusual number of large com
pauies have been incorporated for the pur.
pose of entering into the business, who will
be IN the market next year to buy, which,
coupled with the fact that range beef is
maintaining itself in the Eastern market
better this winter than ever before gives as.
surance of life to the business, and since
the cattle received from the states do not
seem sufficiently well adapted TO range hus-
bandry to cut much figure in prices, it is
evident that instead of a decline, increased
activity and prices tending upward is most
probable again in the early spring. This
"oAii oS hiOiO i"hJ Shcuib tuc
winter prove as light as the indications now
seem to portend. Some of the new compa
MES will probably invest exclusively in
States stock, but the more experienced will
prefer to buy herds all on the range. The
transactions, however, will be principally con
fined to small herds, as large herds, as be
fore stated, will, when for SALE be stocked
and put on the market in that shape, insteaC
Of being delivered and branded as has beer
the rule. The demand for cattle can scarce
ly be classed as sPasmodic spirit, such as
so often characterizrs American speculation'
but in the out growth of steady and per
mant demand for beef, and is not likely tC
fuctuatc very much until something shall
tran>pre to reduce the beef consumption
or Greatly increase the production.

PROTESTING AGAINST SCLAVONIANS
The connellsville Coke Burners Issue Proc
lamation.

SCoTTDALE, Pa. Dec. 24.-The war against
the Hungarians was inaugurated last night.
The following circular was posted through
out the coke country:
Citizens of the Commonwealth of Penn.
sylcdnid: One of the most degrading impo-
sitions upon the people of this Common.
wealth is the wholesale importation Of Scla-
vonians, enormously called Hungarians,
into the Connellsville coke region, perni-
cious custom which must Immediately end,
and the serfs returned, for the following
reasons: Those beings are crewding out our
miners and laborers who have established
homes. and are good citizens, from employ
ment. They will not become naturalized
citizens, but after limited time will return
TO Hungary with what cash they can save,
thereby draining the district of many thou
sand dollars annually. They are extremely
filthy in their habits, living on what Ameri-
can people could not eat. Their morals are
lowest of any class of laporers who ever in
habited the country, living promiscuously,
regardless of marital relations, and are I'M.
sc,upulous in all their transactions. Their
intelligence is the lowest in the scale of any
class of people in the country to-day. Only
about five per cent. can read and write, be.
ing far below average Cinnamon. Much
time and labor have been lost by all classes
in trying to elevate this people against their
will, but all without avail Their habits
grow worse the longer they stay, until it can
no longer be endured. Forbearance has
ceased to be virtue. People who are de!
grading American labor are all injury to our
commerce and blot OH the Commonwealth
that cannot be endured. The American
laborer, as well as the American manufac.
turer, must be protected.

1T WAS strongly intimated In the Courier
last week, aud is supplemented by press
. dispatch from Bozeman, that the Utah Il
Northern Railway Is TO be extended TO Boze-
man next spring, with the suggestion that
the road will probably be continued to Fort
Benton and . connection with the Canadian
Pacific road. Information In our possession
for some time indicated the extension TO
Bozemsn. The company, through Its Attor-
ney, Mr.. Word, has purchased near there the
best developed and most extensive deposits
Of coal yet known Of In Montana, and one
of It's chief alleged merits Is that II will coke.
This will relieve the company Of the long
haul Of coal from Wyoming to Montana, and
of coke from Omaha, and should certainly
enable IL 10 be sold at considerable reduc-
ton on present prices. The Anaconda
smelten alone will use sufficient quantity
10 justify the building Of the road. The
company has oil Its surveys completed TO
near Three Forks, and much work was done
In the jefferson csiion when the extension
from Dillon TO Helena was In progress two
years ago. We have no doubt the U. a. N.
road will be built TO Bozeman next year.
