Teton Wood Drive.

CHoTEAU, M. r., June Z. 1884.
Editors of River Press 80,
You ma think it rather strange not
to have heard anything OF the drive III
the past two months, but When II Is Ie.
membered that the distance from orr
Benton to the wood camp Is l2o mlles
by froighters' measure, what must ~ DC
by the river?
There were n thousand cords in the
water, while part of the other nau NOV
been banked or measured. Banking
ceased April 22nd. and driving COM
menced on the 18th. The canyon was a
hard place to drive, owing to the large
quantity of wood and the low stage OF
water, but on May 18th we completed
this part Of our task, and drove SIX
miles of the best part of the upper Teton.
Then we came to the difficulty That mas
long held this stream for the trappef IN
stead of the river driver. The stream
runs apparently on a ridge, and terml-
mates in a solid mat of brush and beaver
dams. Where nature refused to form a
channel, it had to be cut out with mules
and scrape and run across a rldge TOT
half a mile; then a dam had to be built
to run the current into this new channel
all this being done a month previous
to the drive reaching that point. A lew
men had to be stationed here to break
Jams. It took three days to pass the
wood through this narrow channel, n
this accomplished we had pretty TAR
driving until we struck the bar six miles
above Old Agency. Here the whole
drive hung up on reefs, that LED the
men to believe that we should never get
off. But labor overcOmes all things, n
wood driving is not half SO bad as 1t
looks at a distance. We cleared the bar
the last dreaded spot in the Teton
in four days, and now the success OF the
drive is no longer a matter of doubt, but
a certainty. It's success is due to the
skill and plucky efforts of the sturdy
crew of men who brought down the sue
cessful and.well paying drive of 1883.

THE Helena Independent, the leading
organ of Montana democracy, hits the
nail square on the head when it says
that Blaine is the best nomination the
party could make, he being the only
man who has sufficient personal popu-
larity to create any enthusiasm as a can
didate, and that "Blaine and Logan is
probably the best ticket that the 'grand
old party" could present. These are the
sentiments of the leading republicans Of
the Union, and we are only too glad to
see hat our opponents think SO too. The
popular enthusiasm aroused by the very
magic of his name, and the vast num-
Der of congratulatory dispatches receiv-
ed by our presidential nominee has
never been equaled in u republic.
His adherents do not go into this polit-
ical fight half-hearted, or because he has
a "bar'P' to roll out. Blaine's personal
magnetism would alone win the day, to
say nothing about his record for the last
quarter Of a century as the foremost and
shreWdest statesman of our land.

HENRY WATTERsoN, IN an interview
in the Times, says: "Mr. Tilden's feso-
luton not 10 allow the use Of his name,
or to accept the nomination, has been
memorable since 1880. He has COM
m%unicated this resolution to his friends
with the greatest candor and decision.
He has at no time hesitated or equivo-
Gated. The statement made by Mr..
Dana to Mr.. Dorsheimer may be true,
and Mr.. Tilden's friends have proceed
ed upon the knowledge Of it with his
entire consent. Many of those using
Mr. Tilden's name in. connection with
the next nomination know these things
as we'll as [ do, and are using Mr.. Til
den for purposes of their own. He
would not accept the office, much less
the nomination, and this will be author
itatively communicated to the New
York state convention.

The Coming Celebration.

Full and complete arrangements have
been made for the big time in which
Fort Benton will indulge or the Fourth
of July, as will be seen by the following
programme adopted at the meeting held
at the city hall last Tuesday:
At sunrise a salute of Is guns.
At 8 a. m. a grand parade composed
of the band of the 18th Infantry and
Fort Benton's Fire Department of 80
men, car OF state, followed by a grand
PFC cession on horseback.
1O:30-Reading Of the Declaration Of
Independence.
10:45-Oration.
IL ma salute of thirty-eight guns.
p. m.-Races on the Teton course.
$50 p. m.-Grand display of fireworks.
8 D. m.-Grand tireman's ball.
The various committees that have
been appointed are all enthusiastic over
the subject and propose to leave nothing
undone to make this if not the grandest
celebration in the country on that day,
at least the biggest thing ever seen IN
this line in Fort Benton.

GEN. GRANT is reported to have SUI
fered so much mentally from the expos
ure Of Ferdinand Wards frauds as to
look ten or twelve years older than he is.
Some of his friends think him irretriev-
ably broken in body and spirit. All
attempts to persuade him to publish a
statement of his connection with the
firm, or to induce him to justify him
self, have proved vain. He broods in
silence over what he conceives to be an
outrageous wrong to him.

Em1grant Movables.

The term "Emigrant Movables" ap-
plies upon freight properly forming any
part of the outfit Of an intending settler,
and includes secondhand household
goods, secondhand farming implements
or tools, secondhand vehicles, trees,
shrubbery, live fowls and not to exceed
ten head of live stock in a car load ship
ment. It does notinclude merchandise,
provisions, grain Except for feeding
animals in transit, or fifty bushels for
seed, or any articles intended for sale
at destination.
In addition to the articles named
above there may be loaded with a car of
emigrant movables the following COM
modities: lumber mot TO exceed $500
feet), fence posts not to exceed 500 in
number), or a portable house, and billed
at same rate as a straight carload ofemi-
grant movables.
Emigrant movables less than carloads
are construed to mean secondhand
household goods, secondhand wagons,
secondhand farm machinery, and
should be plainly marked.
A car load shipment of emigrant
movables, going to Minnesota orDakota,
containing live stock, must be accom-
panied bya man to take care of them,
who will be passed free.
The rates provide for a car load of TO-
600 pounds apply upon any shipment
occupying a car, whether weighing 20
600 pounds or less; and if ove 10000
pounds excess is charged in proportion
ate rate.
Car loads Of emigrant movables will
not be stopped in transit short Of desti-
nation to unload any part.

Possess the Iaand.

Get a foothold on the soil is our earn
sturdy, industrious men in the older
portions of the country who are working
for wages. The possession of land gives
independence and that contentment
which only those who are their WI
masters can feel. The opportunity now
open for getting fertile land in the West
at DO other cost than its occupancy and
cultivation, will not last long. Tn a few
years all the arabic government land
remaining will be taken. The stream
of Western migration is SO great that it
will soon spread over all there is left Of
Uncle SANS farm worth taking.
All, but isn't it a life of loneliness and
hardship way out there in the far North
west, we are asked. No particular hard
ship if you have some mean to make a
start with. The railroads will bring you
all the comforts of Eastern civilization,
at a cost not much higher than you are
accustomed to paying. AS to loneliness,
there is no more of it than in the life of
a farmers household in Illinois OF Wis
consin. The neighbors may be a little
farther off, but they make up for dis
lance by being more neighborly. The
nearest town is perhaps not SO conven-
lent, but there are many new interests
in a new country to occupy the mind,
and the settler and his family are too
busy in their new home for a year or two
to feel much need Of society.
Remember that the farmer is never
thrown out Of employment. There may
be strikes and suspensions in mills and
factories, but seed time and harvest will
not fail, and the earth will not cease to
yield her increase. The farmer lot
may be one Of labor and seIf-denial, but
lie need call on man master or fear
that he will be out of work and his
family out of bread.-Northwest.

THE new Black Hills tin mine pro-
misses to lay the tin mines of Cornwall
and Germany far III the shade. The
metal is found in a streak of coarse
granite about 100 feet wide, and thou
sands of tons lie on the surface which
yield 5 and s per cent. of tin. The COM
parison between this prospect and the
mines of the old world can be realized
when we state that in the old mines,
which have been profitably worked for
centuries, the ore contains only one
third per cent. Of tin.
