AUSTRALIAN EXPLORERS.

Someone years ago wrote, "hoHeS
Uioere ante .1gn01en,non," and
substituting post for ante, it stands
good to the present hour. Witness
the late sad affair in the South
Australian bush, where young Giles,
out of a party of six or seven gallant
hearts, only returned with one black
boy to tell the tale of disaster and
death, and having so narrowly es-
caped-indeed, only by the endur-
auce and fidelity of his aboriginal
comrade, who brought him water
and got him into shelter-he started
again with relies to his dying mates,
only to fall exhausted few miles
out; and then having recruited
somewhat CATER day or two), he
insists upon going into the same
deadly bush to "give his lost mates
Christian burial" | don't see in
ancient or modern history anything
much .rander than this! There is u
touching incident in connection with
the sad affair, which few, even grey
boards, can read without being
affected, for the word "mother' is
touch of nature few can resist.
Poor Giles and young Shirley, one
of the lost ones, recognising the
extremity of the situation, shook
hands, and solemnly agreed that
the survivor (if either) should "break
the news to the mother of the other.
One can hardly realise the grand
solemnity of such pious compact
III the wild bush, with the remorsc-
less sun drying the life out of them!
On the survivor Giles the sad task
devolved, aud his first attention ON
being rescued was to carry out his
dead comrades Instructions. Who
shall say after that the glorious
Anglo. Saxon has deterioratcd with
his transplautation to southern soil,
either in courage, fidelity, or filial
piety?-.Society.

The entire Pacific Coast Congress
sional delegation has Endorsed Mr..
Boruck's suggestion for Worlds
Fair in San Francisco in 1887, and
has notified Governor Stoneman of
the fact of their unanimity. 1t is,
therefore, entirely probable that the
idea will receive Fedaral sanction and
probably liberal Government aid.
AS we have reiterated, the first step
to be taken is to make our aXhibits az
the New Orleans Worlds Fair, in
1884, especially representative, full
and attractive. Any failure in that
respect will prove death blow to
the scheme for 1887. Steps to prop
erly present California's products at
New Orleans should be taken without
any further delay. We renew the
suggestion that the commercial bodies
of our chief cities and State Board
of Agriculture call a council, to meet
in the first fortnight of the new year,
to consider the question of ways and
means.-EDchange.

Few queerer stories have been told
about the navy of late years than
that of the accident to the Royal
Albert, at Plymouth, last Friday.
If the story is true, the vessel in
question was all but sunk through
the leaving open of valve in con-
nection with the engine room.
Almost as soon as the mischief was
discovered, she had ten feet of water
in her hold, and was beginning to
settle down. The accident is pre-
cisely identical with that in the funny
parody of Tom Bowling-Punch's
/ think-in which poor Jack Stoker
:'left the valve unstopped." Of
course the story concludes with the
usual official sarcasm-''an inquiry
had been ordered" What a lot of
light these inquiries must throw ON
the mysteries of modern seamanship!

The system of extracting money
from the public for every conceivable
and inconceivable object by the sale
of useless things by pretty young
ladies is at last nearly played out; and
fancy bazaars are beginning to fall
fiat, even in Brighton, where they
have hitherto fourished in manner
out of all proportion to their deserts.
They seem to have reached their
nadir in one held last week to collect
funds to build house for reverend
gentleman and his wife near Hove.
The only tempting objects offered
for sale to the few of the public who
were beguiled into paying shilling
for the privilege of inspecting the
stalls were some dolls dressed in
divided skirts, furnished by the
Rational Dress Association; and
even they didn't sell.-LJe.

The Pittsburgh distilers are sending their
surplus stock of whisky to Europe to escape
the tax. Five thousand barrels have al
ready been shipped, and fully as much
more will be sent in the next few months.
The distilers claim that the shipping to

J0TTINGs BY OUR TRAVELLING MAN.

Seated by the side of VIM. WoOlsey in
lent team, we drove away from the bsstling
health resort for 70-mile ride through the
country and short visit to the "gem city,"
Livingston. The valley of Smith river never
looked more beautiful. the growing fields
being a shade greener than the pasture
lands which were slightly Drowned from
ripening. Siekles and rakes were busy in
many places, and the numerous hay stacks
showed that the harvest was we'll advanced
and the yield bountitul. An hour and thir-
ty minutes drive took us to Cook, Hussev
& CrOsby's horse ranch twelve miles from
town. The place shows a progressive APP
pearance, large barn being in course OF
construction. AT 4. G.. HIPS Sunnysiden
haying had just commenced Nothing has
been lost, however, as rains have been tre-
quent and the meadows have continued to
grow The first station, "Stoneline," at
the crossing of Sixteen mile creek, % miles
from White Sulphur Springs, was reached
in two hours and twenty minutes, travelling
time being a little over eight miles an
hour. Crossing Sixteen-mile the road led
us over the "hog-back, a high, narrow
ridge, probably three miles in length. The
road on this ridge is nearly level, and about
200 feet above the valley. From it we looked
down into the door of L. Lincoln and about
the beautiful meadow that surrounds his
home. Haying was well under way, and
the number of rlcks that dotted the plain for
a mile or two to the eastward, shows that
much more has been put up this season
than usual. At Henry Potter's, the pioneer
ranch of this section, busy scene was pre-
sented. MIR. Potter never does things by
halves. The mower, rake and stacking
teams were all moving briskly. Charles

Vice-President Oakes, of the N. P. L. r.
has answered Gov. Crosby's dispatch con-
cerning the shipment of diseased cattle into
Montana, agreeing to cooperate in the un.
dertaking, and suggesting that an inspector
be posted at Glendive or further east.
A fight occurred on the north side Of the
MusseIshell recently between a party OF
Crows and Pegan Indians, resulting in the
death of one Grow brave and three Piegans.
The latter had stolen some horses from the
Crows.
Miss Henrietta G.. Moore's temperance
lectures at Helena are complmenled in the
highest terms.
The Montana Improvement Company
have determined to dam the Blacktoot river
where it comes out of the mountains, about
quarter of a mile above the railroad bridge.
The dam will be some two hundred feet or
more across, and will be such as to cause
above the present high water mark. The
work will be done during low water. and
next year the company will erect at the
dam a saw mill with a capacity of from Co.
600 to $4,000 feet OF lumber per day. This
is the preliminary step to lining the river
between the mouth of the Blackfoot and
Missouia with saw mills The building of
the Blacktoot dam and mill will entail an
expenditure of $780, ,OOO.-Herad.
"Uncle Billy" Rea, on Tuesday last,
called and left at the Courier office fine
sample of coke, which he brought from the
experimental oven at the Maxwell-tormer-
ly Maxey-mine. The coal for this last test
had been washed, thus getting rid of all
bone and other uninffamable substances,
and the result, we are informed, is satisfac-
tory in the highest degree. The sample left
with us is certainly tar ahead, in quality, of
anything heretofore produced from the
Bozeman coal mines, and compares very
tavorably with the best grades of Pennsyl-
vania coke.-Com'ier.
A block of Montana granite for the Wash
ington monument has been hewn out and
shipped to Washington.
The smelling and reduction works at An
aconda are to be increased to double their
present capacity.
The Herald of the 9th says: Deputy
Sheriff Conrad returned last evening from
down the Northern Pacific, having in
charge Neil Murphy, the coach robber and
horse thief who escaped from Jail here two
or three weeks ago. Conrad got him at
Big Timber, some twenty-five miles below
Livingston" Later we learn that Murphy
was threatened by the vigilantes and Sheriff
Gilpatrick sent him to Butte for safe keep
ing. When near Garrison, although shack
eled, he made dash tor liberty and jumped
from the train while a full speed, but was
recaptured and taken to Butte.

are making more. They have nice start
in the dairy business, and as pretty a loca-
ton as could have been selected. Crosby &
Quinn, who are next on the way, have been
making substantial improvements, and are
making large amount of hay, intending to
engage in wool-growing. Mr.. Woolsey's
halfway station is at the crossing of Potter

ample provisions made for the accOmmoda-

some of them are well improved This year
they have some fine fields of grain growing,

should Montana follow in their footsteps !?
The OK team was good in its day, "the ac-
ton resulting well )" but we are moving on
to higher plane of progress. The propo-
siton to exempt growing crops and live
stock under six months old is only an arti-
flee designed to enlist the favor of the farm
ers; but it is too gauzy. If they haYe the
taxes to pay what matters it what is taxed.
The more articles there are taxed, the less
the tax will be on each. And as to No. 3,
the HUsBANDMAN is proud of its record on
this point. 1t did challenge-did protest
against the measure when adopted by the
Legislature, and if our cotemporary will
look over our files he will find us on record
on this question more than once. The
clause referred to is on our statute books.
we blush to admit, by the vote OF Meagher
county farmer, peace be to his ashes, but
the HUsBANDMAN fought it then as it does
now, and for the same reason. 1t has been
impossible to repeal it because the people
have been ruled by demagoguesm rather
than the common welfare of the country.
And if the farmers and stock growers, al
though largely in the majority, can not
repeal a simple clause in our statutes, how
can they hope to amend Constitution. We
want State government, the farmers do,
and Stockmen do, but we don't want it on
the terms it is offered neither do they. The
fight is forced upon us. 1t is the last and
only show for justice let the people sleep
upon their rights now in their eagerness for
Statehood and their last hope is gone. We
are for starting right; there is ample time.
In free Montana. the brightest gem that is
to glitter in the crown of American States,
there should be in the fundamental law
creating the State no class legislation.

GOVERNOR CROSBY has no doubt acted
wisely in establishing a quarantine against
Texas cattle, although we do not anticipate
that Texas fever will prove very serious in
safe side. The quarantine regulation will
cause Texas herds coming in but little in
convenience. All that will be necessary
will be to unload them on the extreme from
tier, or on some unoccupied range until the
snow flies, after which they may be moved
without danger to our herds. There is
something very singular about this dis
ease, Texas or splenic fever. 1t does not
injure the Texas cattle, but is almost sure
death to Northern cattle coming in contact
with them. 1t is supposed to be communi-
Gated by the Northern animal touching its
nose where the Texan has grazed. All cat
tie from the region of Texas seem to pro-
duce this disease among herds north of the
37th parallel. The presence Of the disease
may often be detected by an inflamed foot,
but the worst case of fevered foot often gets
well in "a hours or shifts to other parts Of
the body where it cannot be noticed. This
does not seem to seriously affect the Texas
animal, but is fatal to Northern cattle driv-
en- into Texas and generally south of the
Both parallel die as rapidly as if turned
among fresh Texans on their home range.
But the first freeze will eradicate the dis
ease. Montana does not need any Texas
cattle, and would lose nothing if none were
ever introduced. Yet the quarantine is
not established through any hostility to-
wards this class of stock, but is absolutely
necessary to prevent loss among our native
herds, and as it will work no serious hard
ship on Texan shippers, should be acqui-
esced in without murmur.
