THE WEST AND ITS FUTURE.

IT is but a very short time since that
"the Vest as a term applied to a
portion of the United States, convey
ed a very indefinite and erroneous
idea to the mind Of the average east
ern man. Even among the most in
telligent, the opinion prevailed that
its confines were the confines Of civil
i~zation, and that the Indian and des-
perado were the important factors OF
its social and political fabric. This
is erroneous. The Indian is tame and
tractable now. His companion, the
desperate, has long since made his
exit, giving place to a prosperous and
law-abiding people.
In connection with this an exchange
says: Eastern people will find, by a
visit to the West, a civilization equal
in every respect to what they have
left behind; a country peopled by an
active, intelligent, aggressive, pros
porous community, whose energy and
enterprise are rewarded as they can
not be in the crowded ~centers of the
older commonwealth. In truth, this
same West, with its teeming millions,
matchless opportunities, virgin soil,
and enexhaustible mineral wealth, is
destined ere long to become not only
the center of u political and com
mercial system, but the manufacture
ing and distributing center. The men
of push and energy who nc now
helping develop it, rank among the
most patriotic citizens. The Penn
sylyanian OF New Yorker, who,
prompted by a spirit Of enterprise, or
discouraged by limited home oppor-
tunities, left, to seek and push his
fortune in the West, has not parted
with his patriotic impulses. His new
field Of labor may enlarge his sphere
of usefulness, but he is as proud, aye,
prouder, if possible, Of the American
flag, than the folks at the old home
stead. The change has broadened his
views and developed faculties which
otherwise would have remained dor
mant, but it has certainly not mlti-
gated against his ability to uccess
fully contend with his eastern com
petitor, from a business standpoint.
The great bulk of those who are
now settling, and who have settled in
the West, are not only a pushing, but
a reading and intelligent people. To
those who have formed differentop in-
lens Of her people and her institu-
tions, we say: "Come to the West
and see for yourselves"

THE WOOL MARKET.

Bradstreet's last report of the wool
trade says: Interest in the wool
trade centers forthe presentin the in
terror where the markets are active,
if not excited, and prices strong. On
the seaboard nothing has occurred to
interrupt the comparative dullness of
the present month. Stock of desira-
bic woods + light, and some kinds,
as for instance Ohio fine delaine, are
virtually out Of supply altogether.
Manufacturers : buying only for
current needs, and these are for sew
eral reasons small. While not a few
prominent factories are extremely
busy on order business, others are
producing no more fabrics than here
tofore, and their owners see no pros
peet Of an immediate resumption Of
full operations"

FROM

HELENA, Mont, June Is, 1886.
EDITOR GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE:
DEAR SIR-Your paper comes to us
in as good form as any paper that I
have ever seen aud is well worthy of
your enterprising little town. Your
editorial on Inducements Offered"
barring the editors little joke, is just
what the eastern people want to know
Of this great country. Having had
about twenty years experience in the
east [ feel that I can speak with some
authority upon this point. It is a
noted fact that some of our most val
ued interests are coITalled and the
policy is not to advise those having
money to invest of the real facts. In
my judgment this is a great mistake
and is doing Montana real harm. The
more eastern capital seeks our Terri
tory for the development Of its mines
Ol Soiu, A4ihSt t1o Codl, GlA lOi tuS
building of such factories and smelt-
ing works as we need here, the better
it will be for the final development Of
all these interests. The time has not
gone by when we a yet hear the cry
that the railroad has killed the conn
try" The railroad has changed the
former condition Of things and has
united US with the outside world. No
~far-seeing nan will say hat the Nor
thern Pacific railroad, considering
that to certain points it has no conpe-
tition, has not done excellent service,
at a fair cost
Great Falls is destined be a large
manufacturing town, having all the
natural advantages that has made st.
Paul and Minneapolis such prosper
Gus cities. With its coal fields that
promise the supply for this whole
Territory, and its immense water
power, the town should be built dur
ing the next few years without any
doubt.
Trusting [ have not imposed on
your good nature, I am very truly
yours. L.. Y. STYLES.

tie, horse and sheep raising, all Of
which require mor OF less capital in
the start. Farming will pay a good
per cent. if conducted IN a business
like manner. Associate with this in
dustry that of stock raising of the
different kinds on a limited scale, and
twill pay handsomely. The dairy bus
mess is another industry which has
received but little attention. This it
not because it is not profitable, but
for the reason that the Territory is
not sufficiently developed to admit Of
each and every minor industry being
fully represented. Montana imports
from the States two-thirds Of the but
ter she annually consumes, and eggs
in carload lots. To this industry she
offers unexcelled natural advantages
for its successful and economical fur
therance.

THE HORSE.

The following from a Colorado pa
per regarding the horse industry,
while perhaps not applicable to
| Montana, nevertheless contains some
points which will prove interesting to
our horsemen:
Raising horses has been regarded
as the most hazardous and least prof
liable Of all farming. Too often
country horse jockeys have furnished
sires of the lowest cost and in the
worst condition Of fairness and idle
ness, and village jockeys have made
the profits whenever a horse has
proved worth the buying In many
sections this is now changed. The
farmers provide valuable stations of
their own, raise enough horses of a
good class to attract city buyers, get
good prices, and make the business
highly profitable.
Whatever class Of horses may be
raised, if enough are to be found to
gether to enable the buyer to secure
them in carload lots at uniform prices,
he can afford to pay one-third more
for each one than he can pay if they
are widely scattered and must be
hunted up, priced, and brought to-
gether at a great expense.
Where but one horse Of a kind is
owned, he is liable to be sold for half
his value, or to be held at a fictitious
price until he eats his head off and is
past selling. The selling value of a
horse depenns on the estimation in
which he is held. An isolated owner
cannot well tell what that should be.
Often an inquiry Oh a visit from some
one at a distance doubles the asking

WHAT Northern Montana needs to
further the development Of her varied
resources is capital There are lying
idle in the New York and Philadel-
phia banks at the present time over
500, 100000, which is paying the de-
positors only a very small percentage.
BY transferring a portion Of this i'm
mense sums to Montana, it Would find
a safe and paying investment to its
owners, and would further the devel-
opment of the finest section in the
United States. We have good mines
of gold, silver. copper, iron and coal,
which need capital to develop them,
and without which they arc compar-
atiyely worthless for the time being.
We need capital to build a railroad,
SO as to place US within reach Of a
center where to find an outlet for the
surplus Of our products. We want
capital to invest III our stock interests.
wbichwill insure a larger percent profit
in one year from the investment than
car be realized in four years, the
way they have their wealth in
vested, and it will be just as secure.

TOTHE CAPITALIST AND SETTLER

Montana offers superior induce
ments to both the capitalist and set
tier. Many of u promising indus
tries feel sadly the need Of capital to
further their development. We have
railroads to build, factories and mills
to erect, beside which, there are other
branches where capital can find safe
and profitable investment. We want
the settler, to produce the products to
keep these mills and factoriesi in active
operation. Montana will furnish the
soil, and of a nature too, that will
make the production Of grains and
other products profitable.

The Sand Coulee coal field is des-
stined to play a very important part
toward developing northern Montana.
The value of this immense deposit of
coal is attracting considerable atten-
ton among the moneyed men Of the
east. Thepresence here of a party of
prospectors, backed by a wealthy
Iowa company, is conclusive evidence
that they r coming to the front ard
will ere long have abundance of CAPT
tai to develop and place their product
alongside that OF other countries.
The Sand Coulee coal field has been
prospected sufficiently to establish
beyond a doubt that it embraces fully
$50 square miles, and further work
will undoubtedly yet add to this large
ire The quality of the coal is es-
tablished. It has proved its worth,
both practically and scientifically and
has withstood the most severe tests to
which it has been subjected.

THE recent storms have shown the
necessity Of having q better road be
tween Helena and Benton. It is right
to have local roads through the bot
tom lands for convenience sake, but
for a main thoroughfare, and n of
such vast importance as theroad from
Helena to Benton, where thousands
Of people are dependent upon its con
dition for supplies, mail, etc, a better
located road will certainly have to be
selected at no distant day. The late
flood demonstrated the unftness of
the bottom roads, and the only re-
course will be to establish them on
the higher lands, which in every re-
spect are better, and will always be in
condition to admit of travel.

German Prospectors In Fails County
An Attempted Suicide.


PERRY, TEX, April 2S.--Rev. Il.
Won Schluembach is expected home
from Germany soon. He is already in
the United States.
One or two parties Of immigrants
have already arrived and more are ex-
pected. The party of distinguished
percentages is expected with, or soon
after, the arrival Of Won Schluembach.
We explained in former communi.
cation that these were people OF wealth
and influence and were coming on q
prospecting tour. A word here as TO
the character of some Of these people
will not be amiss.
Baron Hollweg came here from
Germany at the instance of Rev.
Schluembach, nearly year ago, and,
having Invested heavily in lands and
fencing, he has been gathering into
his pastures live stock and renters into
his fields. AS to the baron's pers onal
character, he is very highly esteemed
by all who come in contact with him.
He shows by his daily life that he be.
lieves in the golden rule, for he GER.
tainly practices it.
Count Bernstoiff who came from
Germany O month ago is looking about
over the state and will soon visit the
Queen City, where "more people
get off the trains,p etc.
Frank Tomlinson, mulatto, Is one
OF the better class of colored people liv-
ing west of this point on the Brazos
river. He Is about thirty years.of age
and single. On Saturday morning be
returned from trip to Waco, where
he had bought supplies and tools. On
his way home from the station he told
several Of his acquaintance that he
was going to die and wanted them to
come to his funeral the next day. Coon
after he had reached home IL
was learned that he had
taken three ounces of laudanum and
was fast sinking under its effects. A
messenger was at once dispatched to
this place for doctor, but the d. ctor
would certainly have been too late.
Luckily for Tomlinson, Mej Horne
happened to be near and was sum
moned to the rescue. By the aid Of
powerful emetics and antidotes he sue
ceeded in rousing Tomlinson from his
dangerous condition and kept him
moving until the effects OF the drug
were overcome. Just what TOmlin'
sons trouble was he did not make
known, but he said thai
he wanted to die. However
he has been near enough to the
coveted country for the present and !.

nlents have resulted In the discovery
OF an agent which completely obviaJes
this difficulty. This agent Is the ex-
lraot OF the bark OF tree indigenous

experiments still further, they have
ascertained that this same extract

NeMsnaners of To-Day.

People generally, and even those
who may be termed steady readers
and close observers, have but faint
conception of the magnitude and in
luence the press of this country has
attained. From careful examination
of the advance pages OF the 1885 edi-
ton of the AMERICAN NEWSPAPER
DIRECTORY, issued May LIST, by Geo.
p, Rowell & Co. of New York, IL ap-
pears that there are IA, 147 newspapers
and periodicals published In the
United States and Canada; of these
the United States has Il. 1913, an aver
age OF one paper for every 1857 per-
aons. In 1884 the total number of
newspapers was less by S23 than at
present, and while the gain this year
Is not so marked as in some previous
years, 1t Ia still considerable. Kansas
shows the greatest increase, the num-
Der being rs, while Illinois follows
with gain of II. Ii is curious TO no.
tice that New York, the scene OF so
much political activity during the
last campaign, should have only about
one.third as many new papers as the
state OF Pennsylvania. AS an index 10
the comparative growth and prosperity
| of different sections OF the country,
especially the territories, the number
OF new papers forms an interesting
study, and may well occupy the atten-
ton of the curious.
