The Pioneer Press throws a food of
light upon the history ofMr. Langhorne,
heretofore unknown even to that gen.
tleman himself. To be a Missourian is
crime in the eyes of many, and although
the criminal may be extraordinarily
intelligent, the fact that he Is Missou-
rian covers up his excellencies and con-
dennis him to everlasting reproach and
villifcation Mr.. Langhorne, however,
was born in Virginia.
Samuel w. Langhorne, appointed to
the Helena land Office, is native of
Missouri, but, unlike most of the Mis-
sourians in the Gallatin valley, was not
member of the left wing of Prices
army. which sought seclusion in the
mountains of Montana at the close of the
unpleasantness He was formerly editor
of the Bozeman Chronicle, and last
spring was elected mayor of the city Of
Bozeman, which Office it will be neces-
sary for him to resign to accept his new
trust He is about fifty years Of age, and
is man of family. Mr.. Langhorne is a
good business man, and will make an
excellent land officer His appoin tment
was urged by Delegate TOole, who ID

tory in all that the term implies.

Some time ago the CHRONICLE strong
ly advocated the more general produc-
ton of barley in the Gallatin Valley.
Our reason for 80 doing was because we
believed that cur soil is peculiarly
adapted to its growth, large, yield a
fine berry and superior quality. Our
opinion has, and is now, being substan-
stantiated. There is no grain raised in
this valley as largely sought after, and
none that finds as ready an eastern mar
ket as white barley. There is no danger
of an over production as other crops are
more profitable elsewhere. Brewers are
now paying the highest price for Mon
tana barley, simply because it goes fur
ther and makes a-Aifner quality of beer
than that grown elsewhere. The fact
that it is successfully raised $4,000 feet
above sea level, is hardy, less liable to
smut and other ravages, makes it mani
testify the safest crop for Montanians to
raise.

TIMBERLINE ITEMS.

Edward Murphy and Edward Lavell
went west on Tuesday.
Mr.. Burr, mining and civil engineer
for the N. P. coal company, is in the
camp this week,
Mr.. Laferty, of Bozeman, has resumed
his old position In the store at Timber

Joseph Sargent and Hugh Crumblin
went to Trail Creek last week, where
they intend to enter into co-partnership
in the saloon business.
William Jackson, miner, had his collar
bone broken and also received few ex-
ternal injuries by coal falling on him
while at work last Monday.
We must remark:-Last Sunday one OF
our prominent young men hitched his
pony to P. J. Queally's dog cart and
despite the rough roads. sped his way to
the red house, where his fair one resid-

his pony to post and entered the house,
where he found her in company with
another young lady. After conversinq
with them for short time he invited
them out to have spin in his cart. The
young ladies eheerfully mplied with
his request and stepped into the cart
The pony was united from the post and
all was ready to start but, alas, the pony
commenced TO balk, and in spite of all
afforts it refused to go. The young lad

SMUT QUESTION.

regret that | feel compelled to ask
space in your columns to reply to an
article in your issue of 18th inst, in re-
gard to smut in wheat. In regard to
Mr.. D. H. Wellman's report l want to
say that it proves nothing. think l
read the report of Mr.. Wellman to which
you refer with considerable care and
noted the errors into which he had fall
len in regard to the production of smut
in wheat. It is now established scienti-
ffc fact that omut when three years old
looses its vitality for reproducing itself.
That is to say that seed whe at which is
three years old and over--if it has been
we'll preseryed-if sown without prepar-
alton will not produce smut. Now /
understand that Mr.. Welman attempted
to produce smut in Fife wheat by inocu-
linton and for which purpose he used
some heads Of smutty wheat that had
been hanging up in some ones elevator
Office for an indefinite time-three or
four years perhaps-and by lapse of time
had lost its vitality for reproduction.
Failing to produce smut in Fife wheat
by the above process he has arrived at
the conclusion that Fife wheat will not
smut.
To say the least of Mr.. Wellman's re-
port, his conclusion is hasty one, car
rying with it no substantial evidence of
his correctness, besides it is misleading
to many who are now seeking q reliable
remedy for its destruction.
l now desire to call your attention to
the fact that perhaps at the very time
you were setting the type in your Office
for article referred to, that there was
car load of Fife wheat with some smut
in it on one of the sidines near Bozeman,
and that car load of Fife wheat came
from Dakota. want to say that it is
not safe for farmers to SOW Fife or other
kinds of wheat in this smut producing
climate without thorough preparation
with blue vitrol or some other solution
that viii destroy the growth of smut 1t
is well known fact to many that the
hard wheats are rot so liable to smut or
other diseases as the soft varieties, but
we nave no evidence at present to war
rant the conclusion that Fife wheat will
not smut if repeatedly sown with one
preparation. In climates which are
noted for the production ofsmutty wheat
among which may be classed California,
Oregon, Washington territory and Mon
tana, the farmers in the above states and
territories. who thoroughly prepare
their seed with strong solution of blue |
vitrol, are now producing clean wheat |
free from smut, and until they find some
more simple and better remedy would |
that they continue its use
and be more careful in the preparation /
Of their seed wheat, and in all cases
where there has been smut to use a
stronger solution of vitrol without any
fear of killing the vitality Of the wheat.

The Helena Herald evidently intend
to create. if possible, the impression that
Secretary Webb lacks ordinary iDtelli-
gence. IN q recent issue it accuses him
of taking the oath of Office before he re-
ceived his commission. The Herald
went off half cooked, as Mr. Webb had
previously received his commission.
Secretary Lamar also instructed him
"To take and subscribe the oath of Office
within the territory, filing one in the
office of the secretary thereof, and re-
turning the other to this department"
Mr. Webb wired Delegate Toole asking
If he should first file his bond, to which
he received the following answer :
COMPTROLLER says taking OATH authorizes
you TO assume Office, but bond should
not be delayed" The Herald fails to

the offices Of the territory.

Although generally anticipated the ap
pointment of Hon S. W. Langhorne t.
the registership of the Helena LAND
Office, was matter of hearty rejoicing t.
all citizens of Bozeman of whatever poll

been conspicuous leader of the Gallatir
county democracy. He was elected

elected member of the legislature anC

in 1873 he was elected clerk and record

Der of the constitutional convention in
1854, is now Mayor of Bozeman and ha,
filled other offices in the territory. In
January, 1858, he started the CHRONICLE
then, as now, an outspoken democratic
paper, and although he did not obtain
riches by the venture, at an outlay and
loss of several thousand dollars, has the
satisfaction of knowing that the paper
has "come to stay, i" and that it still works
and shall continue to labor for the best
interest of the party, who have honored
him and been honored by his acceptance
a very important and remunerative
Office. Mr.. Langhorne will gracefully
and competently fill the Office and we,
with the remainder of his friends
throughout the territory, rejoice at the
selection. In his private and public re-
lations Mr.. Langhorne has always dis
played those excellencies of character
and feeling which adorn human nature.
Rarely has any man won stronger
hold upon the public confidence and
affection of those with whom he has
been connected. His integrity of char
acter and purity of motives have always
retained for him the warm affection of
many, even among the ranks OF his
political opponents. The ease and frank
ness Of his manners, his feIecitous pow
ers OF conversation and of addressing
an audience at any time and upon any
subject, and the general amiableness Of
his feelings, render him the ornament Of
the social circle as well as the rostrum.

equanimity of his department. Gallatin

undertake such an important trust His
predecessors are, we understand, popular
and competent gentlemen, but notwith-
standing, we are pleased to see that the
president is rewarding the most worthy

A compact and unanswerable argument
by the late Thurlow Reed, in refutation Of
the Eatonian doctrine of civil service re-
form, so called, is printed in volume II of
his biography. The subject he discusses is
life tenure of Office:
"The demand made by civil service re.
formers for life tenures in office conflicts
with vital principles Of our form of gov
ernment. Pending adoption of the United
States Constitution, considerations and ar
guments relating TO this question in favor
Of limited tenures for executive and Con-
gressional offices were so cogent and clear
that nothing was left for the advocates of
life, or even long, tenures to stand on. 1t
was then urged that all power resides in the
people that the stability of the Government
and the responsibility of representatives de-
pend upon frequent elections"
