The subject of charging Billings
county should receive the attention Of
every citizen Of our county and then OF
the Legislature. At the very least, Dunn
county on the north and Willard on the
south should be added to Billings. Our
limits formerly took in more than these
two counties, and they should never
have been detached. From the very ma
ture of the occupation, a cattle country
cannot be thickly settled, and there will
never be too many inhabitants within
the enlarged limits. 1t cannot be long
before our county is organized, and when
it is. the present counties of Dunn
and Willard will probably be attached to
us for all purposes. This will: make
them an expense instead of a source of
revenue, and as it is doubtful if either of
these counties will be organized inside
of fifty years, Billings will be long
time getting her money back.

As will be seen in another article the
E6 outfit are paying bounties on all
wolves killed, besides other inducements
to hunters. This move cannot be eonl-
mended too highly, and should, be fol-
lowed by every outfit in the country. By
making it worth while, men can easily
be found who will exterminate the
wolves in a short time. Viewing the
matter inaits broadcast sense, the action
Of the E s is an economical one. Their
per cent. Of loss from wolves,is probably
greater than the bounty they will pay.
and in the future it will certainly pay
largely by a decrease Of this loss. The
E 6 is benefitting the whole cattle CON-
munity by this move, and should receive
their hearty cooperation. .55slz

Reports from the Black Hills are to
the effect that cattle there are not doing
well. Several herds have already lost
ten ercent., and the rest of the cattle
are not in as good condition as they
should be at this time Of the year. The
above loss is the largest we have yet
learned. In no place in Montana can we
hear of a greater loss than fdfr per cent,
and in our Bad Lands the per cent. Of
loss for all cattle on the river cannot
reach more that two per cent. OF course
these figures are all estimated, but they
are probably near the mark. y

1t Was Named After Governor Ed
wards of Connecticut.
Some time since it was mentioned in sew
eral of the newspapers that Edwards street
in this city was named by the late Benjamin
Broomhead after street in the town in
England in which he. was born. This was
based on traditions regarding the locality,
but it appears that the street received its
name before Mr.. Broomhead owned proper
ty the street, and that it was named in
honor of the late Governor Edwards of Con-
necticut, who was Governor of our little
State somewhere between 1880 and 1910.
Governor Edwerds, Eli Whitney, the inven-
tor of the cotton gin, and Henry Whitney,
father of Stephen Whitney of the Whitney
place on Whitney avenue, were instrumental
in having Edwards street laid out and accept
ed. 1t originally ran from Whitney avenue
