And have any love for fame,
Never spare the ink and paper;
Let the people see your name.
Energy is the life of business,

i
| Advertising will surely pay.

We have received copy of one-hun-
dred and twenty.page pamphlet, it being
the annual report Of the Auditor and
Treasurer of the Territory of Montana for
the fiscal year 1884, together With an ap-
pendix containing a record Of marks and
brands. The book is useful for statistical
reference.
1t looks as though the introduction of
the study Of physiology into the public
schools of Montana is not receiving fair
shake in the Legislature. The House
Committee on Education gave physiology
black eye by reporting adversely on the
bill making its study compulsory in our
public schools.
Colonel Callaway's sardonic motion, dur
ing a recess of the House at Helena, to
amend the title OF the Printing Law, by
substituting Gan Act for the Relief of
Printers" was howled down and lost with
out a vote being taken. Printers are poor,
but they hate to have their poverty pa
raded in public.
The annual meeting of the Montana
Historal Society was held at Helena, and
the following officers were elected for the
|'ensuing year: President, Wilbur F. San
ders; Vice President, Granville Stuart;
Corresponding Secretary, c. Hedges; Re-
cording Secretary, w. E. Cullen; Librari-

Southern Montana, during the past ten
days, has been favored with. chinooks until
most of the snow has disappeared from the
valleys, benches and low foothills. The

it is hoped it will 50 continue. Reports
from the ranges are to the effect that cattle
are doing tolerably we'll. v
Over at Deer Lodge they have lyceum
composed Of ladies and gentlemen, at the
weekly meetings of which the members
PROFOUND and answer tough questions.
This is nice, but at "a distance we can not,
for the life of us, tell why Mills is called
on to answer all the knotty (naughty)
questions propounded by the big girls.
The Grand Masked Carnivafat the Pavil-

be the most imposing spectacle ever at
tempted in Dillon.
Rev. T. w. Fleming, the blind temper
ance lecturer, delivered an interesting and
instructive lecture on temperance at Grace
M. E. Church on last Sabbath evening.
The lecture was, in part, forcible illus
tration Of the evils Of intemperance. Mr..
Fleming is an old Montana pioneer, hav-
ing worked at placer mining in the early
days Of the Territory.
The Butte Inter Mountain says: at is
reported that the ghost of Judge Tarbell,
Of Dillon, to await Jessrang, who was
lynched at Dillon a couple Of years ago,
now rambles about the suburbs of that
place at night" A good one on Judge
Tarbell, Of Lion City, who is alive and now
weighs two hundred pounds. It is one Of
Dom Piatt's latest lies.

mitted, and in Beaverhead County, where
