Atlanta ExuIting Oyer the Defeat of the
Stars by Georgetown.
ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 29.-During the
entire afternoon large crowds were as
sembled around the bulletin boards
watching the progress Of the games at
Augusta, between the Atlantas and the
Browns, and at Columbus, between the
Georgetowns and Stars. The latter game
commanded the greatest attention, and
as each dispatch arrived giving the pro-
greSS of the game an OutbuTst of applause
shook the building. The feeling was plain
ly in favor of the GeOrgetOwns, and when
the score of 8 to 0 in favor of the
GeorgetOwns was placed on the board.
the crowd went wild. There is a strong
feeling here against the Columbus nine
for having refused to eXpel Collins from
the club. Collins is abused
here in the strongest terms, and the club
is being sharply criticised for standing up
to him. The hackers of the Atlantas de-
clare that Collins shall never play on the
grounds here again, and should never
have been allowed to remain on first until
the game ended. AS long as Collins is a
member of the Stars the Atlanta nine will
be down on the Columbus nine.

Water has been reached in artesian we'll
No. 2, Miles City, at a depth of $50 feet.
We congratulate the people of that Sec
ton, in that they have demonstrated the
practicability of securing water in this
manner. It settles for them the question
Of water supply. In this connection we
would again urge that an attempt be
made in this valley. We have every
reason to believe that an attempt would
be crowned with success. The measure
of value cannot be estimated, if artesian
water can be procured. Any farm in the
valley would be enhanced at least double
its present value, as it would always in
sure plenty of water for irrigation; would
not be dependent upon snow fall or
drouth. Again the value of pure water
for domestic purposes should not he I'M
derestimated. The water from an arte-
sian well would he better. for irrigation,
because it would be warmer. The cost
of boring is not great, as we understand,
being trife over one dollar per foot.
In view of its success elsewhere, where
the surrounding conditions were not so
favorable, We would urge its trial here.

By request. We publish the following
although it has gone the rounds of the
Territorial press. "a bill has been IN
troduced in Congress to protect settlers
upon the Northern Pacific lands who To-
Gated upon such portions as were not
already patented to the company prior
to July 4, 1879. The bill provides that in
all such cases the company shall accept
$3.50 per acre from such settlers provid-
ed the title of the same be perfected
within eighteen months after the pass
age of the act. The Northern Pacific
Company, however, has the option, if it
desires, to accept other lands in lieu of
those thus appropriated, in which case
the presumption price of $3.50 per acre
goes to the government. The object of
the bill is to prevent the company from
charging extortionate prices for and to
actual settlers, who located upon these
unpatented lands before the line of the
road was definitely fixed.

From the fact that the Ceur dAlene
mines are more accessible than any
which have been discovered in years
past, it Is thought that the stampede
will be greater than any in the history
of mining excitements. From this We
draw the conclusion, that there will he
many more disappointed ones; many
who will suffer great hardships; that
there will be more violence and crime;
that it will be very rough place, and
one which it would be well to avoid
until matters become more settled. Do
not go unless you are provided with
enough means to take care of yourself
for some time, in that event you can
leave, If you do not get into some remun-
erative business.

WHO PAYS the TAXES!

There are sixteen hundred and fifty
two taxpayers in Gallatin county. The
poet office address of seven hundred and
forty of this number is Bozeman, two
hundred and eighty-two at Livingston
and the balance six hundred and thirty
are scattered over the balance of the
county. We can distinctly remember
that only four years ago, when the writer
was county clerk and recorder, that the
number on the tax book was about
seven hundred and fifty. In that time
we have more than doubled in taxable
inhabitants and taxable property. Then
the total value of property was less than
two million, now it is only triae less
than FIVE million. These figures are
significant as showing the rapid increase.
It is a safe prediction to make that in
corresponding length Of time in the fut-
ure that the ratio will be greater.

Delegate Brent. Of Washington Terri
tory, has introduceda bill in relation to
courts and judiciary proceedings in the
Territories. and adopted by the House
Committee and the chances are good that
it will become lsw. The bill provides
that the Supreme Court shall nonsiAt" pf
one Chief Justice and three associate
justices. They shall hold term annu-
ally at the seat of government of the
Territory for which they have been ap-
pointed. but no judge shall sit and deter
mine any case which may have been
before him in the District Court The
Territory shall be DIVIDED into four Judi
cial Districts and a court held in
each district at such time and
place as may be provided
by law. Should this become law it
will be of immense advantage in facilitate
ing legal business. As it is now lin
Montana especially the districts are too
large and the judge trying case below
sets as supreme judge upon the same
case in the superior court, and it is in a
measure prejudged, and it is almost a
waste of time to appeal. We trust, how
ever, that we will not have long to wait
for the time when under state constitu-
ton we can regulate our own judiciary,
but until that time, this is move in the
right direction.

PEOPLE will continue to rush to that as

impossible at this time of the year to do
anything; where the prices of the nec-
cessaries of life are 80 high; where &C.
commodations are necessarily limited
and crude and great hardships are en-
dured in getting there. When by only
few months all these difficulties are re-
moved and in the meantime they can
stay where they are comfortably fixed !;
but then it is useless to stem the impetus

Were we called upon to pick out man

we do not call to mind one, who would
be better fitted for such q position than

His home for the past ten years has been

he has been frequently called
upon by distinguished parties to lead
them to the great wonders. In that time
he has become familiar with the most hid
