Who Should Enigr ate.

E. V. Smalley, in the Northwest
speaks as follows of the classes of people
who can most profitably emigrate to the
Northwest
1st Farmers sons who understand the
practical side of agriculture, but have no
land OF their own and yet can command
a little capital to make a start upon a
homestead on the rich prairies.
End. Older men with small farms on
which they can only make decent liv-
ing for their families. With the money
they could get by the sale of their little
places in the east they would soon be-
come influential farmers on large scale
on the cheap lands of the Northwest.
3rd. Energetic merchants and mechan-
les to go into the new towns and take
leading positions in their respective lines
of business.
4th. Stockraisers with capital enough
to put in herds and focks ON the free,
open bunch grass grounds. Large and
steady profits are made in raising cattle
and horses, and in wool growing.
5th. Practical miners. The resources
of Montana, Idaho and Washington in
gold and silver ores are very great and
but partially developed.
9th. A numerous class of people who
seek health by means of favorable
change of climate. Some are wonder
fully restored by the invigorating air of
the prairies. Others find health in the
high attitudes and dry atmosphere of
the great central plateaus of the noun
tain regions. Still others discover the
best conditions for yigor and long life in
the mild winters and cool summers of
the Puget Sound region. In the great
variety Of aiRates embraced in the
f.sis,.y j. - s<.--sS-,ssE
Pacific coast, almost anybody to whom
change in location is recommended for
health reasons can find the conditions
best suited to his case.
Finally-To all who want broader
field for individual growth and enter
prise and who long for the freedom of
movement, the ambition the hopeful
ness of new communities, the Northwest
offers unfailIng attractions,

Brilliant Skating Feat.

Miss Fan Eel Fitz, professional roller
skater, will make her appearance in
Bozenan about July 5th. Her skating
is characterized by grace and skill
rarely found to such a marked degree in
the same person. The brilliancy Of her
execution carries her through the most
intricate and difficult steps with an ease
and apparent lack of effort that is almost
bewiIdering to the spectator. Miss Fitz's
artistic and becoming costumes also at
tract much attention. The first is COM
posed of new gold uncut plush, un-
trimmed, depending for its effect upon
the exceeding richness Of the material
and classical simplicity of its lines. This
costume is completed by "polo" hat of
the same material as the dress, and
gauntlet gloves Of black lace. Her second
appearance is made in an imported
French costume OF absinthe green and
rose pink silk, trimmed with hand
worked beaded lace. With this dress
she wears a beautiful jewelled bird fast
ened in herhair. Miss Fitz's perform
ance is the most pleasing exhibition OF

Grants Death Feared.

1t now seems apparent that Gen.
Grants death is matter of daily antici-
patton, and very many of those who are
informed as to Gen. Grants actual con-
dition look upon the plan of removing
him from his comfortable home with
grave misgivings That his life now
hangs by single thread there is little
doubt amongst them. Colonel Grant
told reporter that his father had total
ly lost the power of speech. He is still
able to articulate family, but even those
who are most accustomed to his mode of
speech cannot make out what he saws
except at very brief intervals; something
that has never happened before and it is
a development of the past two
weeks. 1t is said by those who are well
informed that his mouth cannot longer
be opened sufficiently wide to enable
the physicians to make oracular exam

fantad. r,sscts they ,oiYa tho natient such

it as much as possible. In outward ap-
pearance and when clothed and in his
easy chair, with wraps about him, the
general is not very greatly changed.
VIM. Fl. Vanderbilt's private car was the
last of three which made up the special
train which was to convey Gen. Grant to
Mount Gregor. Gen. Grant arrived at
the depot and at once entered Wander
bits care and took his seat on a sofa.
He watched with apparent interest the
movements of DIR. Douglas and Harrison
who were arranging chairs and bags so
that the General should be as comfort
able as possible during the tip. The
heavy draught was so arranged as to
prevent any draught from reaching the
sick man. Grant passed restless night
and looks much depressed and emaciat-
ed. While he watches everything that is
done, he does not speak word. The
last stage of the the journey was the
most jolting which caused the general
much pain.

The Queen Rejoices.

The Queen, it is said, is delighted over
Gladstone's dowfall. The ParnelIites,
who accomplished his overthrow, are
going to encounter the hardest times
they have eyer had. The Marquis of
Salisbury, everybody begins to see, lacks
self-confdence He has been bold, but
never far sighted as leader of the OPP
position, but the very moment the Glad
stone ministry resigned the Marquis of
Salisbury becam suppliant for public
help, and vowed he would not take
power unless the Liberals "gave his gov
ernment show from anybody. The
queen could not conceal her satisfaction
over the change in politics. She never
liked Mr.. Gladstone. He was too sup
erior to etiquette, could not fatter and
was impotent as state servant to the
throne. Her majesty was so pleased
over the prospect of again having Tory
and an aristocrat at the head of affairs
that she telegraphed her acceptance of
Mr.. Gladstone's resignation, and by wire
the Marquis of Salisbury to
Balmoral to accept the trust of forming
q new government. 1t is understood that
the Marquis of Salisbury will refrain
from entering upon the work

Death to Fraud.


The present administration of our
government is one that should cause
every liberty-loving c;tizen-whether he
be democrat or republican-t0 rejoice.
Since taking their positions, the presi-
dent and cabinet have uncovered enough
rottenne to require their attention for
four years at least. Every department
is thoroughly honey-eombed with glar-
ing crookedness, systematic stealing and
an utter disregard for the trusts imposed.
We think that the most radical republi-
can must admit that with continuance
of their party in Office the welfare of the
country would have been sadly impaired
and that the present administration has
inaugurated reforms and retrenchments
that win soon secure this nation some
thing like its old-time standing.
Appropos to these remarks very in
teresting statement is sent to the Herald
from Washington of the reforms which
Secretary Manning has already secured
in the custom house service. In few
branches of the service alone they will
save the country millions OF dollars
year. In 1879 an appropriation of $780,
COO was made to be used for the detec-
ton and prevention Of frauds in the GUS
toms service. It was devoted mainly to
paving the salaries Of persons who for
the most part did nothing except draw
pay, and work for the party. Their
names made up what is known as the
Fraud Roll, |, and the appropriation was
really the payment from the public
treasury Of a large sum Of money to sup
port party workers. Their business vas
not to detect revenue frauds, but to run
the primaries, help pack conventions,
and avert from the country the constant
ly impending peril Of paying the rebel
debt. There were all sorts of names on
the roll, those of judges, colonel, brig
adier-generals, and boys, and the COM
pensation ranged from 81 to S. a day.
| There were twenty OF such patriots on
the New York roIl, and at one time
there were no less than sixty under pay
| in various cities, not one Of them did a
seconds work for the government. Sec
retary Manning has cut off the entire
crew, and the expense Of the Fraud
ROLL which was $4,000 last, year, win
be $4,000 this year, and every cent Of
it win be paid for government service.
We understand that every man Of those
who drew the other $4,000 is going
about with heart full Of gloomy appre-
hension concerning the future Of the
poor negro. Daily, papers contain news

Of public service. and the removal d

itions solely for the purpose Of gain

country when freight rates will be cheap
