THE HOLIDAY RIVER PRESS.

This, the third, Holiday number of the
RIVER PRESS goes forth on its useful
mission, and we submit it to the reader
upon its merits. It's single purpose has
been to present in truthful narrative the
advantages Of Fort Benton and the re-
sources of her magnificent tributary
country-and particularly the great In
dian reservation that is soon to be opened
to settlement We have not sought in
any way to make 1t ''literary' work,
but rather to set forth in simple, rugged
English the story Of the wondrous re-
sources of northern Montana, aud the
inducements that are here offered to i'm
migration and the Investment of capital
For whatever Of success to this end has
been attained, we are indebted to large
extent to our contributors and to those
who SO cheerfully gave us information
on the subjects considered To these
gentlemen we extend our sincere thanks.
And, at the beginning of the new wear
which promises to be an ausricious one
for northern Montana-the RIVER
PRESS presents the compliments Of the
season. to all of its readers.

in the mysteries Of the branding iron or
posted on mavericks to compete with
their white brothers.
At the council held at Fort Assina-
boine with Senator Vest and our able
delegate to congress, the lands they ex-
pressed willingness to sell were those
lying west Of the present military re-
serve to the Sweet Grass and the country
lying north Of Milk river to the interna-
tional boundary line butsI understand
their agent has recommended more
liberal reduction, viz: that the 1902 Of
longitude be the western boundary.
This line would be due south from the
vicinity Of Picket Corral, on Milk river,
to Grand Island on the Missouri, and
would leave the Little Rockies in the
new reserve, but the Bears Paw open
to settlement-should the military reser-
vation be reduced also, which suppose
will be done. Without doubt railroad
will soon put in an appearance from the
east, and also branch from the Cana
dian Pacific, making a junction at Fort
Assinaboine, when the cheerful shout of
the brakeman will call out, "Change
cars, for Cypress, the Rocky mountains
and Fort Benton .-.

ed This settlement is wealthy in fiocks
and herds, and it only lately that any
attention has been paid to l'anching, as
there was more money to be made with
less labor III raising cattle and horses.
The town of Choteau has, in our opin-
ion, a promising future before it, as it
lies III the center of as fine stock and
ranching country as can be found in
Montana. Fort Benton, its supply
point, lies ninety miles to the east, and
Is too far away to compete for the local
trade of this section. No particular
effort has been made by the business
men Of the place and owners Of the
townsite to advertise this promising
place as Il good location for business
houses and trades of different kinds, buta
building and business boom such as Sun
River mas been enjoying for the last year
is bound to strike the town Of Choteau
inside of two years.
The El Dorado ditch company have
ditch dug by which next season they
can make valuable ranches out of tens
Of thousands of acres on the bench land
between the Teton and the Muddy. The
soil here is said to be deep loam and
Of first class quality for cropping Wa
er can be brought from the Teton to
cover this ground at small expense
compared to the advanced va lie of the
land to be irrigated. It is the intention
of the directors of the comnar to pro-
cure colony eitlhr in the eastern states
or the old country to settle on this inn
mense tract. The financial success of
such colonies, both to the originators
and the settlers in Colorado and Califor-
MIA, where the natural advantages are
no better than here, makes us sanguine
of the success of this enterprise.
There are two business houses on the
upper Marias, but as the larger part of
the country on the tributaries Of this
stream is included in the Blackfoot In
dian reservation, it is hard to say yet
where the business center of the upper
Marias will be located. AS is the case
with the upper Teton, there is room
here for good town with its surround
ing trading posts and smaller business
houses.
The river press. [volume] (Fort Benton, Mont.) 1880-current, 1884-01-02
THE UPPER TETON AND MARIAs

There is a great similarity in these
two streams Of northern Montana. They
both head in the main range of the
/ Rockies, and flow $50 miles in south
easterly direction to their point of con-
/ fiuence, which is about four miles of the
| " mingle Both are small streams COM
pared to their length, as for the last sew
enty-iye miles they do not receive any
tributaries, which flow the year around
this making them carry as much water
seventy-five miles from the mouth as
where they finally empty into the Mis-
souri, The lower half Of both streams
have short, narrow bottoms, which
makes it difficult to irrigate-these are
used principally for stock ranches, for
| which purpose they are admirably adapt
ed. As soon as you get to the tops of the
high bluffs, on either side Of the streams,
you are on high, rolling prairie, cut by
deep coulees, running into the main ra-
vine. This broken country furnishes
good shelter for stock during the winter
storms, and the plateau with its peren-
nial carpet of bunch grass furnishes free
pasturage for thousands of cattle and
sheep. Tue lower Teton has been utiliz-
ed more fer grain ranches than the Ma.
rias, on account of larger bottoms, and
the northern side of the Marias still held
ostensibly for the Indians, though pre-
cious little use they have for 1t. When
water has been brought on to these bot.
toms, either by bitches or irrigatng
wheels, they will make the finest Of
grain and hay ranches, as the soil is gen
orally clayey loan, which will stand
cultivation for along time without wear
ing ouT, as would a lighter and more
sandy soil. Nearer the mountains the
valleys, of the tributaries and forks of
these two rivers, widen out and make
natural fine hay and grain ranches. The
broad valley at the new town Of Choteau,
which has the two forks Of the Teton
running on either side of it, is a good
sample Of what can be seen on all Of
these smaller streams. Here we find
the land all taken up, and the adjoining
ranches, for the most part, we'll improv

these will be profitably worked. The
Interpretation of the Indians name Of
these mountains is "Island mountains y
from it's being surrounded by prairie.
It is very dear to them on account of its
former plentitude of game and its beau
tiful springs and parks, where in the
past their forefathers gathered the vari-
Gus wild berries indigenous to this coun-
/ try, while Wooing their wives whose
Irecollectiohs may be more vivid on ac-
count of "reminiscences of hard work
cutting lodge poles and scraping them
while their noble lords smoked in the
shade. Their present protestation of
love for those mountains may also haye
been enhanced by the desire Of the
white man to possess them. Trout
abound in the many branches Of Eagle
and Birch creek. An effort has been
made by the military to Introduce them
into Beaver creek but without success.
The Square Butte, fifteen miles south
of Fort Assinaboine, is the Bears Paw
proper called SC by it's likeness to the
paw of bear, but it takes more imagin-
ation Or different aspect than I have
ever had to see the resemblance.
This mountain covers more than
twice the area of the Little Rockies, not
vice versa, as is seen on the maps.
u Luxurious grasses cover these hills to
the topmost points while the valleys are
Ealmost tropical in the rankness Of their
vegetation.
The Sweet Grass hills is OF q similar
formation to the Bears Paw mountains,
and several rich specimens of galena
have been shown as coming from there.
White marble of an excellent quality
has also been discovered. These hills
are fairly timbered and the surrounding
country well wattered by springs. They
receive their name from the sweet smell
ing grasses which are found their in
great abundance, and with which the
young Indians, of both sexes, adorn
their heads, necks and arms ia summer
time,
.sWhen small birds tune and thrushes sing,'
this mixture of odors is quite over
powering. Talk of patchouly y-whew!
tt beats the famed seven stinks of Col
ogne.
All this country is now lying in waste,
and to the few Indians who inhabit it is
an unmitigated evil, for they roam over
it search of game, which is no more, for
1.-THE buffalo are all gone" and SO are the
antelope and deer for that matter, and
now remains but the wolves, coyotes and
Indians; the former to be the cause of
worry to the coming cowboy and loss
to our cattle kings, while the latter will
be the bone Of ofcontention for the interior
and war departments, q hobby for rival
religious denominations and prey to
unsophisticated Indian traders and 9TH
er evangelists. i.
Now that the buffalo are all gone''
there is no good reason why the Indians
should not be put on lands in severaltv,
and taught the pastime of farming, and /
soon become self-sustaining. They un-
1erstand that this is inevitable but they |
nave laudable ambition to raise steers
or the eastern mark cts as well as home
and they have heard Of
and tcnderioin in demand.
,ut scarce, at Is cents q pound u Fort

ection Of the country for the purpose Of
toek raising which IS good sense.
