From the report of the secretary OF
the state board of agriculture, 1t ap-
pears that Kansas will probably not
have more than enough wheat for seed

1t is possible that the yield OF spring
wheat will relieve what now appears
certain to be s.ringency, bat wheat
will not 90 begging for prices IN this
state this wear. In view ofihis fact,
we deem il important that the farm
crs who have wheat on hand should
hold il for home consumption. 1t the
wheat is kept here, it will save money
to the consumer, while the producer
will get fully a much here at home as
he could send it To Chicago or else

HORSE RAISING.

The Dyo,ers' Journal is Of the opinion
that horse raising in Montana has been
ovsrdone little. at least growers are not
making the profits they did before the Ter.
ritory failed to raise horses enough for its
own use. The "bonanza" part is worn off,
but it is still very good business, and
those who are contented with reasonable
profits seem to have no reason for COM
plant. One cause Of the supply in the
Territory surprising the demand is the
rapid manner in which horse-raising has
grown into favor. This has increased the
supply and the railroads have stopped the
use Of hundreds and hundreds Of stage
horses. The horse.raisers of Montana
generally seem to appreciate the import
ance Of blood, and If they breed only good,
high class horses Of various kinds there is
no reason why they should not find re.
munerative markets in the States. There
is surplus Of pony stock and light com.
mon horses everywhere. Good heavy
draft horses are about the most satisfactory
sellers.

this section as jealous worker in the
cause OF Christ. Mr.. Lamb did not bring

Of grace. In Mormondom Mr.. Lamb has
tackled the fraud known as "'rhe Book ~

cards shows that the card varies considera.
bly, from the card we have been accustom.
cd to seeing for the past six or seven
years It is in size exactly the same, but
The design is printed in light brown col.
or. Instead Of the head Of the Goddess of
Liberty in vignette in the corner, appears
fine engraving Of vefferson's head. In
stead Of the monogram ~. S." the card
has on 1t the words "United States" print.
cd at length. On the address side the
words, "Nothing but the address to bc on
this s'de,' appear instead Of "Nothing bu,
the address can be placed OH this side" as
was the case on the old postal cards. This
makes three different styles OF postal cards
that the United States has issued. The
first being Of light brown color, the sec.
ond light buff, and this new one being of

FATED To RULE THE WORLD.

The tribune has been publishing the
serial stories Of the brilliant young Eng.

Fargus. We are now publishing the last
story from the pen Of the gifted novelist.
The last thing written BY "Hugh Conway"
was letter from Monte Carlo to .1Lsaia, a
correspondent Of the Boston Traveller. da.
ted April coth, 1855. In it he says: "In
spite Of the ocean between us, in spite Of
competition, In spite OF the way we treated
you in your civil war, the English.speak.
Ing race is one Of vast brotherhood, stern.
fierce and unconquerable, and fated to rule
the world.' Upon which the Philadelphia
Ne'rs says: "This is striking language
and comes home to writer's Of English
both British and Ame,ican-more forciblv
than any other class Of the public and with
more truthful ring than seemed possible

THE "SKCNK" CITY OPPOSED TO
SILVER.

Atthe next meeting Of Congress the sill
yer question will be the absorbing one.
An exchange says that Chicago has Join.
ed New York to put stop to the silver
coinage. We have heard o. mothers OF
the lower orders eating their own offspring
but it seldom happens that tho child de-
s!roys its mother, or the created destroys
the creator. Chicago has always had an
impression that it made the Northwest
but never dreamed that the Northwest
made Chicago. That city, however, is
the outgrowth Of this great country. Mon.
tana is small country, but its trade is no
small item to Chicago. The Skunk City
could live and grow without New York,
but it would live at a poor, dying rate
without the trade Of the silver. producing
States and Territories Of the West. The
time was when Chicago belonged to the
debtor class, and when that city was nearly
as poor as old Jobs turkey. Then ChicA.
go condemned monorolies. Now she has
grown rich-owns monopolies is
joined to her idols. Moloch is gold and
silver must 90. Chicago will sensibly feel
the blow 1t will give the Northwest in
stopping the coinage Of silver.

CROW COMFORT.

The Indian question in its various phases
Is subject that attracts attention for the
reason that the problem Of civilizing the
red men is now and always has been un.
satisfactory. Rev. George Comfort the
M. E. presiding elder for the eastern dis.
trics of Montana, recently made mission
AIRY trip to the Grow Agency and gives
his views on the Indian question as follows,
which may BE- regarded as Crow Comfort:
"Many Of the Crows have built good
houses-for Indians-gathered in settle
ments, and gone to cultivating the soil. In
several instances this they are doing sue.
cessfully, and give promise of great i'm.
provementin the near future. The desire
in them Is beginning to be manifested to
do as the white man. and to have heap
Of things, like him. Ny impressions
were very decided that now is the time to
begin permanent work for the good Of
these Indians. First, establish schools at
every possible place among them. Have
men tor teachers who are practical, full Of
character and common sense. Teach
them every practical and useful thing
first, then add the moral and religious.
Teachers should be missionaries, learn
their language, and prove themselves their
true friends. This can and should be done
until the Indian will come to trust in the
white man, and desire to become like him.
The Government should at once throw
open to settlement all their reservation
west OF the Big Horn river, making its
center the line, thus leaving to the Indians
all they need, and atfording thousond
homes to the white man, to enrich our
Territory. am told that this can BE- oh.
