make any use of even for hunting pur-
poses. Not an acre of it is cultivated by
the Indians, and but very little of graz
ing land is utilized by the Indian ponie
or the wild game that the Indian chases.
The character of this northern country
is a vast, undulating, grassy plain, capa-
BILE of supporting, if fully utilized, mil
lions of cattle, horses and sheep. Wheth-
er or not this entire area is available for
grain growing is a matter of some doubt.
1t is emphatically the best portion OF
Montana in some respects less broken,
waste, or covered with rock and forest.
IF opened to occupancy by the whites,
it would be almost Immediately filled,
the country being very similar to Da-
kota and Manitoba, which have been so
rapidly occupied. The buffalo are fast
disappearing, and without active inter-
ference on the part Of the government
they will entirely disappear within ten
years. If the government wishes to
preserve a natural and suitable park for
the remnant of the buffalo, here is the
place to do it. We should not object.
But to leave it to continue as now, a
sealed and prohibited land, Of 40 use to
the nominal occupants and forbidden to
the whites, is an evil that should not be
permitted to continue another day.
With present facilities for immigration,
Montana will soon be in need of these
lands for settlement. Now that the gov
eminent has aided in giving us a rail
road to bring in settlers, it ought to open
the lands to settlement.

parts of Arkansas. Recently a body Of
men forced a preacher to suspend his
discourse and read a paper warning sew
eral of his congregation. The most sug-
gestive feature Of this interruption Of
worship was that the intruders took the
precaution to arm themselves to the
teeth before entering into the sanctuary.
Recent developments Of the fighting
strength of Arkansas parsons probably
caused them to prepare against the risk
of his producing a six-shooter from the
sacred desk, to say nothing of the chance
that his flock would open fire with their
Winchesters from the pews.

Page Eulogizes Arthur.

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-The NeWs Sara
toga special says: Horace F. Page, of
California, came here yesterday. He is
OH his way west, where he will be join
ed, In Chicago, by ex-Congressman Ha-
zelton, and the two will then go to New
Mexico for rest and to look after cattle
and mining interests. Page has been in
congress for over ten years. He is a man
OF great force of character, and has been
SO long in politics at Washington, that
he is thoroughly familiar with all the
speculations and qualities of the leaders.
Speaking of Arthur yesterday, he said !:
II am surprised to see, in travelling about
the country, what a popular man he is.
[ believe to-day. he is the strongest mar
the republicans car put on their ticket"
After eulogizing Arthur's course in many
particulars, he said: II have been sur
prised in one thing in my intercourse
with the President, and that is to find
him a much ADLER man and a finer read
lawyer than the outside public has any
idea Of. I regard him as an ADLER law
yer than anyman who has held the post
of president for the last fifty years. His
knowledge as a lawyer was well illus
trated only the other day. I was inter-
ested in a complicated tide-Water land
question in my state, and Teller differed
with me as to the construction of the
law. Invent with Teller and made an
appeal to- the president. I began with
my argument, and / never ia my life
saw q man comprehend and take in SO
quickly all the bearings Of that case,
which had cost me so much trouble. He
was familiar with every decision of the
supreme court for the last hundred
years bearing upon the question OF tide
water lands. He very promptly told
Teller he was wrong in his construction

A BAND of genuinely savage Apaches
were shown at the recent Sante Fe fair.
It was a hard matter to get them to go
there. They had seen few white faces
except behind a raised musket. When
the wagons were ready to start several
of the foremost braves, who had been al
most persuaded tomake the trip, refused
to go along. The sight of a railroad train
awed the Indians into EXPLANATIONS Of
"De-sa-ra-ta-ra" (Wonderful), many
times repeated with whispered breath.
These barrel-breasted fellows, who
would face a bear empty handed, were
afraid to step into the cars, and the
squaWs cringed behind their trembling
lords. Atlast they suffered themselves
to be led falteringly aboard, and, as the
train moved off, they covered themselves
with their blankets and dropped panic
stricken between the seats.

CONTRACTING OBSERVATIONS.

While a special delegation of leading
senators and representatives is in the
territory for the purpose of learning the
wishes and necessities Of our people con
corning the great Indian reservations
that cover more than one-third of our
entire territory and the pest portions Of
it at that, says the Herald, it is the time
for a general expression of u wishes in
the matter and an exhibition of the ne
cessities that invoke early action. All
that portion of Montana from the crest
of the main range to our eastern border
and north Of the Marias and Ne Mis-
souri, river, is one continuous reserva-
ton, extending over nine degrees Of
longitude and two degrees of latitude.
Roughly estimating the area of this great
northern reservation, we should say that
it was between 10000 and 10000 square
miles, or as large as the State of Maine,
Indiana or South Carolina. The Indians
who occupy this vast region do not ex-
eeed $4,000, if they reach that number.
One-tenth part Of the present area IS
more than these Indians can possibly

AS to Col. Ilges.

WASHINGTON, August 4.-The papers
in the court martial case of Col. Ilges,
recently tried at st. Paul, have not yet
been received by the war department,
although they are expected daily. Re
ferring to the matter, Judge Advocate
General Swain says: "Before the pres
ident lett here he sent to my office sew
eral times to inquire if the documents
had arrived" This indicates that the
president takes considerable interest in
the matter. Whether he is ahtagonistic
to Ilges or not is unknown, but the i'm
preston is abroad that Ilges' friends
have brought considerable pressure to
bear on him in advance of the verdict.
Acting Secretary Of War Tweedaie said
to-day that the verdict would not be Civ
en- to the public until it had been con-
sidered and acted upon by the president,
and this would probably not be done
until after his return to Washington.

THE Salvation Army in London has

THE Salvation Army in London has
lost 500, 600, which is a crushing blow
to its finances, as it destroys it's entire
surplus. Gen. Booth bought the lease
of the Grecian Theatre for II years, pay
ing the mentioned sum as bonus. The
property including a garden and dance
house, as well as the largest theatre in
the city, and had a vicious kind Of pop
ularity. Booth diverted it all to relig-
ions uses, but soon foundt that a clause in
the lease required him to maintain a bar
for the open sale of alcoholic beverages.
The owner insisted upon a strict compli-
ance with this provision, and brought a
suit to enforce it. The Court gave
Booth time to keep the agreement, and
then declared the lease forfeited, with
all the money that had been paid to the
original lessee.
