HELENA, July4 1888.
This has been a great gala day in
Helena. Fourth Of July and the ad-
vent of the Northern Pacific passsn-
ger and freight trains brought out all
Helena to the front, and erticed the
staid ranchmen and their wives,
daughters, sisters, cousins and aunts
living within a radius of twenty
miles to the gay city. The day
opened bright and cool, and barring
the dust which was famed around by
a gentle mountain zephyr, was all
that could be wished. The city was
decked in holiday attire. All the
public and many of the private build
ings were festooned with flags and
streamers, and the streets were lined
with evergreens, many of which were
laden with the choicest flowers. The
patrieticslly inclined were granted
the fullest license, and these who re-
garded the presence of the iron horse
in their midst as a matter of gres ter
moment to them and to their inter-
ests were brimfull ofenthusiasm from
what they saw, of hope for the future
and Of confidence in the continued
prosperity of the city. The cere-
monies Of the day were opened by the
firing Of cannon, ringing of bells and
the mixture Of noises usual upon
Fourth OF July celebrations.
At ten o'clock a. m. the grand pro-
cession commenced to form. All the
industries and business
houses in the city, together with the
fire department., were rep
resented in it, among which may be
mentioned:
Geo +. Boos-Printlng press in operation.
Al. Davidson-Harness, saddles, etc.

GREAT EDUCATIONAL MOVEMEN

For 8 number of years back scheme of general education has been gradually developing itself in the United States which is now achieving a wonderful popular sue cess in the way of organized home study and investigation. We refer to what-is known as the Chautauqu a Literary and Scientific Circle
 A little over five years ago the as> sociation was organized with few members for mutual pleasure and benefit at Chautauqua, that famous scholastic summer resort of the east ern Chautauqua lake, New York state. The idea of making the asso~ citation a permanent thing and in creasing the lines of it's usefulness gradually developed itself and today the membership of this remarkable organization numbers over 50, 900, an averaee increase of more than ten thousand members per year.
 The idea is q select course ot study or reading which can be completed in four years by reading forty min utes each day. This course can be pursued by a single individual al home, but the general practice is tho organization of local circles, having their own rules, etc., under whlcl they do the average amount of read ing besides making the subject
 read up much more interesting b, conversation and discussion concerl ing them and at the same time pro mote social intercourse.
 The general ideas of the cours

WHAT makes a success of public
 school? Ninety-nine persons out of
 a hundred would answer ''the teach>
 CT" and yet they were never more
 mistaken. No teacher that ever lived or ever will live can make q success of a school if he has not the support of the parents of the pupils. The parents Of the pupils make the public school a success or failure.
 The judicious parent who has at heart the interests of the children of the community and of his own in particular will support the teacher right or wrong. The teacher may err in judgment would be more than mortal if it were otherW ise; but the moment the parent picks flaws and forgets tEe duties of parent that moment the highest ef- fciency of the teacher is sadly im- paired. Good schools are always found in good ncighbork rois and failures come in every time where their is neigh borhnod qualrels and open parental differences with the teacher. The teacher may remain in the school, may continue to teach right along through force of will, but the result of his endeavors is sad failure. "I don't like the teach CT" is common on the lips of the child for it is childish to tire of any thing, but when the parent takes up the childish complaint the difficulty is merely augmented, not removed. On the other hand if the parent al- ways finds a a good word for the teacher in the presence of the child the dislike is soon dispelled and the teacher strengthened for the good work to be done,

J. ADDISON REAvIs now publishes the statement that he has not sold the Peralta grant. A few days since his brother informed us that he had sold it.~J. Addison now says that he has had an offer of ten millions, but the terms do not suit him and he considers himself "off" Speak, ing of this Peralta grant business the general expression of opinion among those interviewed eencerning g it IS that the whole thing is a most unmitigated and outrageous swindlc upon the government, and especially of the whole people who have set- tied on the lands and have taken steps to secure their titles. It is scarcely credited anywhere that the grant willbe confirmed by our land office. If it should be confirmed there will be some surprised indivi> duas in this Territory.

 The Pacific branch of this great organization has it's headqua rters at San Jose and Mrs. NJ. H. Field, the secretary, will furnish all required information.
