Of presence ofmind the other night.
Going to a closet, with a candle in
one hand, to look for book, some
paper trimmings to the shelves
caught fire. The little woman
made no cutlery, but taking off a
shawl she wore, with it she fought
and smothered the flames, and her
parents knew nothing Of the mat
ter until informed by a lady relative
to whom she had communicated it
in confidence with the grave assur-
ance that she had not thought
about herself, ''only about mamma
and papa" whom she was afraid
would be burned up unless she put
the fire out.

The Bozeman weekly chronicle. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1883-1889, 1883-07-04

One hundred and seven years ago to-
day the grandest declaration of human
rights and liberties that ever inspired the
brain and challenged the admiration of q
universe, was solemnly announced un'
der circumstances and in the face of
powerful nation, which might well blancf
the cheek and make the stoutest heart
quail, but our forefathcrs were made Of
the right material. The sufferings, the
privations, the indomitable courage and
perseverance which were part of those
times can never be too highly appreciat'
ed and valued. How appropriate to
celebrate day which has brought about
a elimination so grand, the Inauguration
of a nation which in little more than q
century has no superior, the home of the
oppressed Of all nations, under whose
fostering care it is possible for the genius
of any man to climb to the highest sum-
NIT of fame, no matter how humble his
origin. Where liberty, free speech, free
thought is only hampered in so far as is
necessary for the public good. Let us dc
honor to such day, lay aside business
cares and devote at least part of it to
pleasure and recreation. Fling the flags
to the breeze, make the welken ring
with joyous shouts glorious Fourth
is here.

There is some prospect now that
Wyoming Territory will soon take meas
ures to provide judiciary and constabu-
larry officers for the National Park. In
response to the Secretary of the Interior,
asking the Governor of Wyoming to take
such measures. Acting Gov. Morgan re-
plies as follows: II am satisfied that
under the law of Wyoming the county
commissioners of Unita county, which
includes the park, can at pleasure create
an election precinct which will include
the park, but am somewhat in doubt il
the county commissioners who, under
our law, govern the calling of special
elections for county officers, can do SO
unless an actual vacancy had previously
occurred in the precinct. / will at once
call the attention Of the commissioners
of Unita county to the subject and its
importance. Should it prove that our
law prevents present or speedy action,
our legislature, which convenes in JAN
uary, 1884, could and doubtless would re-
move the obstruction; but / am in
hopes that the county commissioners
will see their way clear to present action.
I will give the latter prompt and earnest
attention"

RAILROAD LANDS.

For the benefit of actual settlers and
those intending to enter upon railroad
lands, we publish from the daily Oregon
ian the substance of Mr.. Wizards state
ments during his recent trip, as to the
land policy of the Northern Pacific Kali
road, and which must be regarded as
authority: "The company gives assu-
RANGES that it will deal with the bona tide
settlers on it's lands with fairness and
liberality, and that the same disposition
to recognize the equities and interests OF
the community which has always char
acterized the management Of the com
panies under Mr.. Wizards control, will
be shown towards settlers on railroad
lands. 1t is manifestly to the interest OF
the railroad company to have the coun-
trv settled up, and it will endeavor to do
nothing to retard such settlement. In
regard to settlement On the so-called 'un-
earned lands which have been With
drawn from the company along the lines
of road not yet constructed. and to which
the company will be entitled SO soon as
these lines shall be built, it is the pur-
pose of the company as far as possible to
secure the right Of purchase to the bona
tide settler, who may have gone upon the
agricultural lands and made thereon
GOOD and substantial improvements. AS
these lines are constructed the lands will
he carefully examined and fair and
reasonable valuation will be placed upon
them, This valuation will be made
without regard to any improvements
made by the settlers on such lands asare
occupied and improved. In cases where
in past years settler has gone on rail-
road land and in good faith resided upon
and improved it for a come, the company
propose to allow such actual settler the
privilege of purchasing the quarter sec
ton of land on which his buildings and
improvements have been made, at the
minimum price of 60 per acre, cash, or
$500 per acre on time. 1t is intended
that the privilege to make purchase at
these minimum prices shall, SO far as
practicable, be confirmed by the company
to the "actual settler" whether any ap-
plication for the purchase of the land
NAV have been made by him or not"
It is the announced policy of the COM
pany to open to sale and settlement all
of its agricultural landsas fast as possible,
and to stimulate the settlement Of such
lands in every way in its power. They
recognize that the prosperity of the road
will depend more upon the development
oftraffic by the settlement of these lands
than upon their contingent ownership.

Twelve years ago when came to Boze-
man 1 brought all my worldly wealth
(less than two thousand COLLARS with me
and cast my lot with the pioneers of CIV
ilation hereabouts, with an expectation
to make home and live among the adj
vance guard. Since that time my bust
ness has increased from five thousand
dollars the first year to twenty thousand
dollars the last year, and / am proud
of the record l have made, and feel a
just pride in my customers, who have
enabled me to achieve such a success. A
wear ago, the march of improvement
caused me to vacate the log house corner
of Main and Bozeman streets, at which
time l commenced the building of a
more spacious and comfortable building
to accommodate my increasing trade. At
ter two removals and one fire, am at
last settled in my new quarters.

where / hope to see ali my old friends
and customers, and the public generally,
whether they wish to purchase or not.
hope they will come in aud take look
around and compare the old with the
new.

Major WATSON, the defauiting paymas'
ter, has been duly sentenced by Cour,
Marshal. and the sentence confirmed by
President Arthur. The sentence Will
date July 3rd, from which date he will
cease to be an officer of the army and
suffer confinement for eighteen month";
at hard labor, at the Kansas State Peni'
Tertiary. This is no doubt a righteous
sentence, and we hope will have good
effect. 1t seems to us that there is less
inducement in the army for the commits
sion of crime, at least by officers, than in
any other Of the walks Of life. Good
pay, certain tenure Of position with
chance of promotion, should remove
temptation.
