years ago we wonld return thanks to the
immortal gods for the almost immediate
answer to onr prayer to be deliyerd ont
OF the hands Of the Philistines, in other
words, out Of the judicial jurisdiction Of
Stark county. For the deliyerance has
come at last and the organization Of
Billings county Is almost complete. It
has been q long time coming but we are
none the less thankful that II has come.
There Is not . county in the Territory
that has within its limits more Of the
elements Of wealth than has Billings
county. As far as sustaining ourselves
,is concerned, we could be cut Of indefi-
nitely from all the rest Of the world. We
arc an empire In ourselves; Outside Of

the best coal in the whole west, the sup
ply being inexhaustible. There is also
an abundance Of ash, cedar and cotton.

tural land as there is In Dakota, and al.
together the best Of anything west Of the
Missouri. Asa cattle country we are
unsurpassed by anything in tho United
States. We have read reports from all
cattle districts and none Of them com.
pare at all with our small per cent. ol
loss. Including every loss in the Bad
Lands, we are confident that it will fall
considerably short Of two per cent. The
cattle and agricultural territory, more.
over, is SO well divided that there is :bu,
little danger Of their interests clashing
For citizens we have a pushing, intelli

II the Mandan and Bismarck papers
would. be more careful to get at facts,
their mission as newspapers would be
far better conserved. From the begin
ming to the end Of the long struggle as
to which Northern Pacific town should
have the freight route, we think we are
right in saying that not an original ar
tiele appeared in any Of them, except the
,Mandan Pioneer, stating the. true facts.
The truth Of the matter is that Medora's
prosperity lies heavily on the stomachs
Of the editors Of the aforementioned pa
pers, as both Mandan and Bismarck ex-
pected o share In the Black Hills trade.
Had the freight gone to any other point
on the road, blind man could see that
it would be only temporary as rail
road is necessary to hold it and there Is
no other town on the road besides Medo.
"a that has sufficient money to build q
railroad, Mandan and Bismarck, not ex-
cepted. Arailroad to the Hills is Ger
tainty Of the near future and by our get
ting it, Mandan and Bismarck will be
shut out entirely from the Black Hills
trade. It is very easy to see the animus
Of the slurring articles published in
these papers in reference to Medora and
the Marquis de Mores and it is an eyi
dence Of little, dog-in-the-manger minds
which our present prosperity and future
prospects put us in position to view
with the contempt they deserve. Man
dan and Bismarck can make up theil
minds that in a very short time, Medors
will grow to be a successful rival tt
either Of them. They are both almos
entirely agricultural towns depending
on crops which at the best, are doubtful
II every crop in Dakota should fail, i
would scarcely affect Medora. The in
crease of Bad Lands cattle never fails
nor will all the jobbing and other indus
tries OF which Medora is to the seat.

languague etc. These Rev. gentle
men have an idea that they can say
whatever they please, and that we
have to bow in silent submission ;
that they can call the church "Romish
church, !" and give us such sweet titles
as "Romanist,n Papists" ETC., and at
last we shoul gracefully thank them
for tolerating us at all. To my great
surprise noticed in former cores
pondence of the Rev. Mr.. Hutchinson
to the TRIBUNE the term-''Romish
church," This wasabout nine months
ago, if memory serves me right. To
my great surprise, say, for thought
him too much of q gentleman to sheer
at time-honored institution that
commands the respect of the world.
Thenceforward classed him among
those who either ignorantly or malici-
ously affect to ignore that church
which has civilized the old world,
and is now the bulwark against the
encroachments of a reviving pagan
ism.
Now / wish my Rev. friend and
others whom it may concern, to I'M
derstand that I will stand as an ever
ready "watchman upon the tower"
and never allow my faith that is
dearer to me than my hearts blood to
be sneered at by such contempt-con-
veying expressions. If it is done, l
will not hesitate moment to send
the culprit home in uncompromising
terms. Should shrink to do so, l
would fail to do what [ consider
most sacred duty.
The Catholic church has, it is true,
no grave consequences to apprehend
from such superficial and sickning
utterances of her enemies. She has
the divine promise that "the gates of
he'll shall not prevail against her."
Indeed the mad rawlings of her
numerous enemies for more than
eighteen centuries have had about the
same effect on her as the kick ola fly
would have on the Strait of Gibraltar.
History is the unbiased witness to
his fact. We might, therefore, easily
gnore such insignificant outbursts
But would have the Rey. gentle
nan bear in mind (and this was my
,nly motive in answering his letters)
hat if he wishes to speak of the
church let him do so in a
manner, and we will re-
main friends.
RESPECTFULLY,

Morris tribune., 1884-02-13

In the "Milk and Watery" dis
cussion in your columns of late the
name of one is frequently found, not
unknown to fame. Reference is had
to Rev. r. r. Meredith D. d. He was
for years popular minister in the
M. e. church and much sought for in
wealthy city churches. He entered
the Union Army as Lieutenant dur
ing the war of the Rebellion. Soon
after his return he entered the Congre-
gational ministry and has been settled
over churches in Boston. 1t is said
he has the largest class of Bible stu
dents in the country, if not of the
world. He is regarded as one of the
most eloquent men and persuasive
orators of the times. 1t is doubtful
that he has been correctly reporte d in
the extract given by Father Watry.
Speakers are often misrepresented by
the Press. If the extract is q correct
report of his remarks, Oh the occasion
referred to, it would only show DIR.
Meredith not infallible In his assertions
though 1t is cause Of regret, that in
consequence of depravity, so many of
our talented young men are averse to
christianity in any form. Yet it is
cause for gratitude, that there are
many noble young men devoted
christians. AS all our churches and
Young Mems Christian Associations
show. A. c.. L.

People who imagine that it gives

People who imagine that it gives
a newspaper man any pleasure to ex-
pose or mention the shortcomings OF
others, are doing him great injustice.
The real newspaper, the one that is
honest and true, can make no distinc-
ton of persons. 1t must praise it's Bit
terest enemy if he does a praiseworthy
act, or condemn it's best friend if he
does anything worthy Of condemna-
ton. The personal feelings ofthe writ
er has nothing to do with it whatever.
Notwithstanding the public demand,
newspaper of this kind, and any
other kind would be fraud, there is
perhaps no man that receives as
much praise and as much censure as
a newspaper man. Ten people will
take him by the hand and call him
blessed on account of an item, and ten
other people will want to put head
on him and call him a blasted fool for
the same thing.-Glencoe Enterprise.

Mr.. EDITOR:
The Creamery Association at re-
ntmeeting voted to issue Stock addi'
tional to meet indebtedness-2O shares
at par. or % or so per cent. discount,
and also to raise means to purchase
pigs, and build IL pen for them, to be
fed on butter milk. 1t is thought
enough of cream can be negotiated to
make the Creamerya paying lnstitu-
ton. The new elevator is doing q
good business. The Brewery is
stopped by family troubles among the
Bohemian owners; brothers wish to
dissolve partnership. One half OF the
concern is for sale.-a bad but paying
investment. Our saloons, as most
others, are scenes OF debauchery and
bloodshed. One man of talent and
tact, who has long been in high
station, who has buried q christian
wife, and who has an interesting
family, is very much addicted to
drunken bouts, and is often foul and
foolish when full, cut hole with a
beer glass in the head of fellow
citizen, who like him was full of fight
because full of maddening poison.

EDITOR TRIBUNE;

EDITOR TRIBUNE:
Allow me again Il small space in
your paper just for a few words in
regard to the answer of the Rev. Mr..
5yTgatry to that query Of mine.
shall certainly not seize the oppor-
tunity to use such base illusions, as
those with which the Rev. gentleman
treats my Insignificant person. Suf-
flee it to say, that when he steps up
before the public and makes an attack
of such a nature as the one In question,
he must suffer himself to be ques-
toned.
In regard to the title that attached
to the name Of the Rev. gentleman, I
beg pardon. The title Father is so
commonly used in addressing a Cath
Ollie priest, that l thereby thought I
did him great honor. Personally
I have nothing against the Rev. Mr..
Watry. Personalities are not what
l am after, but the matteF itself,
The Rev. gentleman seems to make
a short and clean sweep of the whole
matter, and believes that he has sub
stantiated the assertion that the teach
ings of Professionalism are vague and
contradictory and unfit to make q be-
lever of skeptic, by that syllogism
of his and asks me to point out the
defects in 1t, If can. Your syllogism
is all right, Rev. gentleman, but I
would kindly ask you to lay it on the
shelf until you may have use for it.
When you have proved the premises,
then you may take it down and apply
it: Remember that you have made
the assertion that the teachings of
Professionalism are vague and contra
dictory; this needs to be established
by facts. Remember you have told us
there is only one remedy left to cure a
skeptic, and that is found in the ''good
old ways" Those good old ways"
the only remedy you have told us, is
not found in the Protestant Church.
Where is it found? Wherein does it
consist? Itseems as though you see
the disease of the time and know the
only remedy that will cure 1t, but will
not tell.
Should you see fit to answer my re-
peated query, allow me for the argu-
ments sake, to call your attention to
the fact, that the so-eaIied Protestant
Church is divided into two separate
bodies, the Reformed Church, and the
Lutheran Church. The Reformed
Church is not responsible for the teach
ings Of the Lutheran Church, or re-
verse. 1t is for you to show up the
the vague and contradictory teachings
of the Reformed Church, and since L
am Lutheran, am certainly inter-
ested in knowing the vague and con-
Trajectory teachings of the Lutheran
Church. You ask me to stick to the
point; that is just what am doing
and ara going to do should we enter
into more explicit discussion upon
the subject.
Respectfully,
