WANIEp-.A IHRouGH MAIL POUCH.

The mail facilities of Maiden are
now in a shape to give satisfaction to
all of 500 people who get their mail at
this office, excepting in the unavoid-
able mistakes that now and then are
committed by the N. P. railroad car
riers, by dropping our mail at Billings
instead of Custer Station. Mail mat
ter for this section of country reaches
its destination via Junction City from
twelve to twenty hours earlier than via
Billings, and Uncle Sans servants,
particularly within the borders of Mon
tana, will please note the fact.
The only cause for complaint is the
tardy arrival of our Junction City mail,
due here at six o'clock in the evening,
yet unable to arrive on schedule time
by the delays incidental to the assort-
ing and handling of all the mail at the
several offices en- route. The bulk of all
mail matter dropped at Custer Station
is destined to Maiden and Maginnis-
particularly the former point, yet un-
der the present arrangements all the
way and through mail goes into the
same sacks, necessitating the handling
of the bulk at each and every office,
giving DON for an occasional lay over
of through matter, makes double work
for all p%ostmasters, and delaying the
stage a considerable length of time at
each Office. To obviate the difficulty
all that is necessary is the introduction
of a through sack from Junction City,
the railroad point to Maiden, a
way-sack carrying all mail for inter
mediate points. The change will cost
a mere trife and save at least two
hours time per trip, guaranteeing the
arrival of the mail here on time. II
Uncle Sam will furnish the route with
a through pouch the citizens of Maiden
will settle the bill, If necessary. Let
us have through pouches and all mail
dropped at Junction City.

The President and his Secretary of
the Treasury bring out the usual an
nual declaration that no more silver
dollars should be coined; because they
accumulate in the treasury and drive
gold out. This is entirely too thin.
The Secretary of the Treasury can
pay out silver or gold at his own OPP
ton on nearly all public debts, since
both are legal tenders. A complaint
then against the accumulation of silver,
which he has the power to prevent,
comes with a bad grace from the man
whose duty it is to remedy the evil.
If there is no better argument against
the coinage of silver than has been
offered the last few years, the coinage
should go on. Time and experience
have proved the fallacy Of all the argu-
ments thus far offered, and the goldites
are driven to the act of accommodating
silver in the treasury, that the fact may
be used as an argument.-Independent

COWBOYS Court.

Hon. James Fergus, under the cap
ton Of sThe Cowboys Court, a Court
of Justice" in last weeks Husband
man, forcibly expresses his opinion OF
what the cowboys have done toward
extermining horse and cattle thieves.
He is of the opinion that but little
Justice has been secured by appealing
to the law, and cites an instance where
innocent parties were jailed while the
offenders went scott free. He says:
"Our courts are so uncertain that it
is only IL waste Of time and money tax
ing prisoners there. 1t Is the certainty
of punishment that prevents crime
and in this respect the cowboy court
has the advantage, criminals never
break Jail after hanging half an hour
by the neck to n tree.
Our Judges to, are generally too leni
ent with offenders, sending a horse
thief n year to the penitentiary does Il
little or no good, the time Is soon up
and he steals again. 1t would have
been a good thing for the country If the
road agents hat held up the lawyers
and judge on the Boulder road, had
kept them II week or two in the moun-
tains without bedding and on scant
rations, they would have learned more
about the situation than they could
reading law in their offices, or trying
cases in court. Another thing, there
are Il few grumblers and fault finders,
mostly men who have been in the bust
ness themselves. While all regret the
necessity of having to resort to such
desperate measures, all good men are
glad to get rid of lawless desperadoes,
and none others are III danger.
Sympathizers who are generally more
or less 'tarred with the same stick, ,
will be watched and their names placed
on record. 1t would be well for such
to understand that the hanging, etc. OF
horse thieves has not been done 10y
bands of lawless cowboys, but was the
result of a general understanding
among all the large cattle ranges IL

NOW Is The lime.

The time is now ripe for prompt
and energetic action by the citizens OF
eastern Meagher county toward taking
steps in securing a division Of the
county at the coming session of the
the legislature. A petition, generally
signed and presented to the legisla-
ture by Hon. James Fergus is, un-
questionably, the best mode. The
designation of the lines of the new
county are not essential, yet it would
be better to have the proposed boun-
daries stated in the petition, that the
legislature can act without referring II
back to the people. We believe no
better division could be made, or one
that would give greater satisfaction to
a large majority of voters residing
within the boundaries of the proposed
new county, than to follow up Belt
creek from where it crosses the Cho-
teau county line, to its source, then
follow the Belt range to the Gap, and
from thence due south to the MusSel-
shell, or follow the summit of the
Snowy range east to Mason creek,
thence to the Musselshell, leaving the
northern and eastern boundaries as at
present. The ARGUS will supply the
petitions, who will circulate them.

The Seven Bibles OF the World.

The seven Bibles Of the world are the
Koran Of the Mohamedans, the Tri
Pitikes Of the Buddhists, the Five Kings
of the Chinese, the three Vedas of the
Hindoos, the Zendavesta, and the Scrip
lures of the Christians. The Koran is
the most recent of these, dating ebout
the seventh century after Christ. It is q
compound of quotations from the Old and
New Testaments, the Talmud and the
Gospel of ST. Barnabas. The Eddas Of
the Scandinavians were first published in
the fourteenth century. The Pitikes Of
the Buddhists contain sublime morals,
and pure aspirations, and their author
lived and died in the sixth century before
Christ. There is nothing Of excellence
in these sacred books not found in the
Bible. The sacred writings Of the
Chinese are called the Five Kings, the
word "Kings" meaning web of cloth.
They contain the best sayings Of the best
sages on the duties Of life. These say.
ings cannot be traced farther back than
eleven hundred years before Christ. The
three Vedas are the most ancient books
of the Hindoos; and they are believed
to date not eleven hundred years before
Christ. The Zendavesta of the Persians
is the greatest of the sacred books next
to our Bible. Zoroaster, whose sayings
it contains, was born in the twelfth cen.
tury before Christ. Moses lived fifteen
hundred years before Christ.
