rs they wind their way to the first genuine,
great big, old fashioned, forty horses and q
clown circus that hrs ever appeared In Mon

of the good old kind we remember of In our
boyhood days, when gingerbread, pop, and y
circus ticket Tor good place 20 crawl In un-
der the canvass was the acme of all delights,
when every spangle was gold or silver, every
remark and antic of the clown an original
inspiration, each leap of male and female
rider and gymnast the granaest exhibition Of
trained muscle that adorable humanity was
capable of, and the mechanical lope of the
old ring horse with his body at as from his
feet problem OF motion we stopped not to
solve and thought OF only to admire. That
was the brass mounted, kingdom come cir
Gus or the old days. And now Dan CASTILLO,

Jumped the Wrong Man.
Rsatoll Recnrn


Information reaches us from Rocky Point
that \. Biedler, while on his way from the
Point to Maginnis, was attacked by party of
horse thieves, who for long time have had a
grudge against him. He was travelling in a
blackboard drawn by two mules, to serve a
warrant under special deputation from
Sheriff McDevitt Al the first fire one of hi
mules was shot and his team rolled over int
coulee. y. got upon his feet and opened
FIRE upon the rascals, whereupon they turned
and ran. His last shot tumbled one of tn,
crew from his saddle, but he got up again
and with some difficulty regained his seat
The party tackled the wrong man.

aid says: "TWenty-one years ago, al
most to a day, and in almost the same
spot where the track layers from the
Pacific met those from the Atlantic, met
the skirmishing line of pioneering white
settlers from Oregon and st. Louis, Bud
Meadow and Sam Hauser. Both are
still living, and n was on the ground
to. relate the incident. Within that in

have been yesterday a formal meeting

A WASHINGTON special says: When
the bill reducing letter postage to two
cents per half ounce became a law, the
post Office officials said that this would
not affect the rate to Canada. It is found,
however, upon investigation, that the
agreement Of the two countries express
~ stipulates that leach country shall
deliver the mail matter Of the other
without additional charge when the rate
of postage current in the country from
which the mail matter originates is
paid" Under this agreement, there
fore, it is decided that the rate Of postage
to Canada will be two cents after Octo-
Der 1, while the rate from Canada to the
United States will remain at three cents
as at present.

THE republicans of Ohio are growing
more sanguine of victory every day.
Their candidate for governor, Judge
Foraker, is winning the respect and adj
miration Of all classes by his speeches
and the n in which he has SO far
conducted his campaign, while his dem
ocratic opponent is kept busy explain
ing his last explanations. In addition,
while the republicans of that state are
becoming more and more united, the
democratic ranks are being disorganized
by the struggle between the Pendleton
and anti Pendleton factions. Indeed,
everything points to republican triumph
in Ohio in October, which will tend in
a great measure to settle the presidential
question next fall.

GEN. AUGER, in command of the de-
partment of Texas, has struck a blow at
the practice of post traders cashing the
pay accounts of army officers. In a
general order he prohibits the traders of
that department from cashing, receiving
in payment or in any way handling or
negotiating pay accounts that are not
due at the date of the transaction. VIC
lations of the order will subject offend
ers to annulment of appointment. Pay
masters, too, are required to be more
particular in future, and must report
every case where it is evident that Of
icers' accounts were transferred in vio-
lation of the regulations.

Now that the attention of railroad
managers is being directed toward Fort
Benton, it seems to us that our people
should bestir themselves and take some
concerted action to hasten the advent OF
the iron horse. The recent visit OF the
representatives of the Canadian Pacific
shows that this company is locking to-
ward northern Montana IS a promising
field into which to seek business, and
that a very little effort on our part will
induce them to build their iron road to
this city. The report Of these repre-
sentativesl we are assured, will be favor
able, butt ought to be supplemented by
something which will add weight to it.
It has been suggested, and the thought
is opportune, that a meeting Of Benton's
leading business men be called to dis
cuss the situation, and to appoint some
person to prepare a short, concise show
ing Of Fort Benton's business, resources
and merits as a trade center, to be laid
before the Canadian Pacific managers
as an inducement to hasten the CON
struction Of their branch line to this
place. We trust the suggestion will be
| acted upon, and speedily.

RAT PORTAGE Jul the loss OF a
large saw mill, which was only complet-
ed last spring and which was burned to
the ground on the 21st. The aggregate
loss is estimated at $500, 900, and will be
a sad blow to the place. Great excite
ment is said to prevail owing to the re-
port that the fire was the act of a posse
of Manitoba special constables that were
sent over from Winnipeg a few days
ago. It is probable, however, that this
rumor is merely an %unfounded fancy,
engendered by the hostile feelings that
have been raised by the late heated dis
pute over the boundary question.

MAMMOTH Hot SPRINGS, Aug. 20,
18S3.-The presidential party arrived
here to-day and are now at the hotel.
They were all very much fatigued with
the Journey on horseback to which they
were unused, and will remain here a few
DAVIS, or until they are fully rested. They
will then go for their cruise through the
Park, and will probably not come out
before Sept. 1st. The report which
reached here before them that President
Arthur was i'll was untrue, as he was
only fatigued from travelling, and is 9th

u OPPORTUNITY.

OUR OPPORTUNITY.
Next week will occur IN opportunity
hat should not be allowed to pass with
out advantage being taken of it. We
refer to the presence in Helena of Henry
Willard and a majority Of the active
management of the Northern Pacific
railroad to attend the celebration of the
completion Of that road, and the oppor-
tunity that this circumstance will give
to have Fort Benton's case presented
before them. It has been suggested,
and we unhesitatingly endorse such sug-
gestion, that the Fort Benton board of
trade or a meeting of the business men
of this city, appoint a committee Of four
or five of our leading and most capable
citizens to wait upon Mr.. Willard and
the other railroad magnates in Helena
and lay before them a statement of the
advantages, of our city as a trade center
and the inviting field for railroad enter
prise to be found in northern Montana.
Their mission would be a pleasant and
a comparatively easy one to fulfill, for
no as yet uninvaded territory can make
a more favorable showing or present
more inducements than this section of
the great northwest. Our fertile valleys,
our illimitable sweep of rolling bench
lands covered with the most nutritious
grasses on which yearly fatten thous-
ands OF high grade beef cattle; our valu-
able and extensive coal deposits where
the black diamonds only wait the COM
ing of the railroad to be utilized and
give aid to the manufacturing and COM
mercial interest of the country; our rich
and inexhaustible leads of silver, gold
andother metals-all Will yield a big
revenue to the railroad which will enter
this inviting field and reap the rich har-
vest which has been sown by the hands
ofthe hardy pioneers, prospectors, stock
and business men of northern Montana.
Whole pages could be written on this
subject and then without more than a
commencement of the tale. We might
dwell upon the immense business trans
acted by the merchants Of Fort Benton
and the mammoth stocks Of goods that
are transported to this point every year,
much of which seeks further transport
alton to outlying settlements; we might
speak of the great possibilities Of the
vast region north of our city which will
soon be opened to and occupied by the
multitude who are seeking homes in the
favored northwest, but it is not neces
sary in this article. All this is as wei
if not better understood by those who
would be delegated by such a meeting
to explain our situation to the railroad
managers. We hope the opportunity
will not be allowed to pass without al
attempt being made to take advantage
of it.
We are pleased to state that since thu
above was in type we have learned tha
steps have been taken looking to tn
carrying out of the measure proposed
and we authorized to announce that
meeting will be held at 10 o'clock thi
morning, at the probate judges office
to discuss the matter and select repre-
sentatives to present the case to tn
railroad managers. It is desired tina
every one interested will attend.

Extending.

A NEST interesting change in the
firm of P. w. Madison & Cos was
eonsummated on Saturday by which
the acquisition of Mr.. John R.
Winder, jun, as a partner in the
firm, was effected. 1t has been APP
parent for some time that their
rapidly increasing business de-
maDded the presence and constant
attention Of member Of the firm,
and this heretofore has been I'M
practicable by reason of Mr.. Mad
son being more or less engaged in
his furniture business while the
duties of Mr.. NJ. E. Cummings (the
other member of the frml, in the
Deseret National bank, employ SO
much of his time that it Las only
been his leisure hours, SO to speak,
that have been devoted to the busi~
ness. Bnt there are other reasons for
the change. Mr.. WiudeF is to yirtu-
ally assume the management of the
business and those who are familiar
with his associations with Z. G. M.
l., where he has been employed for
great many years, being one of the
oldest, so far as term of service goes,
employees in that institution, ap-
pTeciate the motive which prompted
the firm to secure the cooperation
and services Of so Competent and
popular a business man.
| An evidence of what the new
firm intend doing may be seen in
the fact that within the last few
days several carloads of stoves,
: ranges, hardware, etc, have been
: received, necessitating the use of
; two additional warehouses, while
their store No. is Main street is
stocked with a most complete line
of those articles. P. w. Madsen s.
Co. are sure to reap the benefits of
! enterprise.
