Mr.. Beecher is right when he says
that the new northwest is rich in ''liv-
able" lands and poor in settlement.
There will be great cities built on Puget
sound, large towns as depots and trade
centers in Oregon, Washington terri
tory, Idaho, Montana and Dakota. The
inflow of population has hardly begun.
A wide expanse Of country, rich in ag-
ricultural, mining and grazing re-
sources, scarcely feels the effects Of an
immigration boom. Territories that
are capable of supporting millions of
people are dotted with a few thousands.
But it requires no very vivid imsgina-
tion to hear the tramp of millions yet
to be" resounding through the north
west. Mr.. Henry Ward Beecher, in
his capacity Of boomer and prophet,
want young men to go up early and
possess that land. Mr.. Beecher's words
are weighty and wise. New York

Darlington, Ind. Ter, Transporter:
Those in this week from the different
ranges say that cattlemen generally
have spared no time in making guards
to protect their ranges from prairie
fires, which are now beginning to ap-
pear. In those cases where the ranges
will have burned the occupants will be
pretty apt to suffer a loss of stock dur
ing the winter, but we are pleased to
note that there will not be many such
cases. 1t is a matter of too much i'm
portance to neglect.
The secretary of the interior has di-
rected the sale of the land contained
in the Fort Sumner military reserya-
ton. There are about %, zoo acres to
be sold. The Pecos river flows
through the reservation. The reserya-
ton was for many years the home of
Lucien and Pete Maxwell and the i'm
provements thereon were six months
ago sold by the son to the New Eng

"A SAD SIGHT TO BEHOLD

Some four weeks since, a man, or
rather a walking skeleton, came into

New York, completely exhausted, just
riding from Fourteenth street, near
Ninth avenue. He took a chair and
after regaining sufficient strength, in
formed Mr.. q. hat he had been given
up by his physicians to die, from what
what they termed to be a severe case Of
consumption-one lung being entirely
gone and the other more or less affect
ed. He says: mir. ~Crittenden, will
your article which 1 have seen adveItis-
ed (meauing Hale's Honey of Hore-
hound and Tar cure, or give me re-
liefp" L gravely informed him that it
was avery bad case, and one which l
was afraid had run too long, but adj
vised him to try one bottle, AS it GER
tainly could do him no harm, and see
the effect; explaining at the same time
that Honey and Horehound soothed
and scattered all irritations and inha-
nations, and the Tar balm cleansed
and cleared the throat and air passages
leading to the lungs, and that the ad-
ditional ingredients kept the organs
cool, moist and in healthy action. He

came into the store with a light step
and smiling countenance; stated that
he had used the first bottle and found
80 much relief that he felt encouraged,
and at different times since he sent for
seven more bottles, which he had used,
and believed himself permanently cur
ed; said he should recommend it to all
his friends and acquaintances, which,
as he said, were many, as he was a man
Of wealth and influence. The price Of
Hale's Honey and Horehound of Tar is
