TOOLE's VIEWS.

Delegate Toole has the following
to say in regard to the recent order
against the cutting of timber by the
Montana Improvement company:
/ have felt the greatest anxiety
about this new circular, and some
time ago called on the secretary OF
the interior and protested against its
approval, subsequently addressing a
letter to him reeiting the mischief
which would follow its enforcement
and the great hardship it would en-
tail upon the residents of the mineral
regions. Commissioner Sparks in
terpreted the act ofcongress, approved
in June, 1873, relating to cutting
timber on mineral lands, that each
individual must cut the timber him
self or by his personal agent, and
cutting timber to be used as fuel IN
.qnartz mills. ETC., is not such mining
purpose as contemplated by the act
referred to, but is forbidden by the
act. So illiberal a construction as that
given by Mr.. Sparks would. of course.
suspend all mining operations and
throw thousands of people out Of en-
pIoyment. But aside from this, it is
questionable whether the courts would
enforce sush a regulation, as the law
giving authority to make such rules
and regulations necessary for the car
rying out of the statute seems to me
to go beyond constitutional authority,
in this that it is an attempt to confer
Legislative powers upon al executive
department of the government. The
true condition of the difficulty, in my
opinion. is to have these lands survey
ed and to provide some method by
which the citizen can acquire a title,
and this remains for congress to do.

ANALYZING THE BAKING POW
DEnS.

Under the direction Of the New York
State Board of Health, eighty-fou differ
IL kinds of baking powders, embracing
all brands that could be found for sale in
the State, were submitted to examination
and analysis BY Prof. c. T. Chandler, a
member Of the State Board and president
Of the New York City Board Of Health,
assisted by Prof. Edward g. Love, the
w~eII-knoWn late United States Govern
ment chemist.
The official report shows that a large
number Of the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many of
them to such an extent as to render them
seriously Objectionable for use in the
preparation Of human food.
AlaWwas found i'll twenty-nine sam
pies, This drug is employed in baking
powders to cheaper their cost. The pres
ence Of lime is attributed to the impure
cream of tartar of commerce used in
their manufacture. Such cream of tartar
was also Analysed, and found to contain
lime and other impurities; in some sam
pies to the extent Of SO per cent. of their
entire weight.
All the baking powders of the market,
with the single exception Of Royal" (not
including the alum and phosphate pow
ders, which were long since discarded as
unsafe or inefficient by prudent house
keepers are made from impure cream of
tartar of commerce, and consequently
contain lime to a corresponding extent.
Tie only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis to be entirely free from
lime and absolutely pure is the Royal"
This perfect purity results from the ex
elusive use of cream Of tartar specially
refined and prepared by patent processes
Of the n, Y. Tartar Co. which totally re-
move the tartrate Of lime and other i'm
purities. The cost OF this chemically
pure cream Of tartar is much greater
than any other, and on accout of this
greater cost is used in no baking powder
but the Royal
Prof. Love, who made the analyses of
baking powders for the New York State
Board of Health, as well as for the Gov
eminent, says Of the purity and whole
someness of Royal
i have tested a package Of Royal
Baking Powder which / purchased in
the open market, and find it composed Of
pure and wholesome ingredients, 1t is a
cream of tartar powder of a high degree
of merit, and does not contain either al
UNI or phosphates or any injurious sub
stances. Z. G. LOVE, Ph. d.

A PROMISING OUTLOOK.

The history Of every important center
in the west, whether it be commercial
manufacturing or railroad, shows that it.
had some natural advantage, Of sufficient
tai. No town has yet gained other than
local importance without It. 1t seems to
be an unwritten law, and as the country
has been Wrestcd from the a~borigines, and
its resources developed, it has without an
exception been respected and obeyed.
These advantages may be in situation,
accessibility, available water-power, Or
other advantages Of equal importance.
minneapolis has been q striking illustra-
ton of the power OF this; yet where is
the person who twenty years ago would
have imagined that she would have at
tanned the population she now sustains?
Her growth is said to have been phenom-
in another it was not. Her advantages
warranted the building up of a city, de-
spite the fact that her sister city, st, Paul,
was years in advance. What the history of
Minnesota has been, so will be the history
of other western Territories. With the
advance Of civilization, new cities will
be built, which will equal in importance
those Of the east Natural sites offering
superior advantages will certainly be
selected. The same unWritten law which
selected Chicago, St. Louis, minneapolis
and numerous other western cities, will
govern here the same as it has elsewhere.
Perhaps one Of the most important adj
vantages is available water-power. As
Stunning this to be a fact, does it not seem
probable that the Falls of the Missouri
river, which are supposed to furnish the
greatest available WaterpoWer on the
continent, would naturally be selected rs
the site for the building up Of & great
city? And when it is taken into consid-
GRAFTON that these are the only falls Of any
importance between the Mississippi river
and Washington Territory, a distance OF
two thousand miles, does it not seem ab-
solutely certain that such will be TIE
case? We think it does, and such is the
opinion of practical men who are thor
oughly acquainted with the almost un-
limited resources of the country surround
ing this immense power, for hundreds of
miles in every direction. There is not
one acre Of land surrounding it but that
is productive, and viii yield a revenue to
the farmer or stockman. The mountains
with their rich deposits Of gold, silver,
copper and lead, and the vast area of coal
lands comprising the famous Sand Coulee
and Belt creek fields, together with the
underlying veins Of iron ore, are tributa-
~, and will contribute theirsupport. Such
various resources, so practically unlimit-
Ell as those which surround the Falls of
the Missouri river, together with its CEN
trail location in their midst, its beautiful
situation, its easy accessibility for rail
reads, and with the u~nbounded wealth
which is interested directly in its devel-
opment, would seem to point towards it
as the future city Of the northwest. And
such it will be.

Somewhere about rs Or II, says the
Calgary Herald, Campbell, from Montana,
drove a herd of horses into the North
west. He also very thoughtfully fetched
along about 50 gallons Of fiyewater for an
occasional snifter on the trail and other
purposes. This whisky he cached on
High river. Campbell and his partner
were both drowned inattempting to cross
the Saskatchewan, and as for the cache
no man knew the place thereof until this
day. There are, however, rumors flying
about, for the truth of which We do not
Of course vouch, that the Indians who are
at present camped in considerable mum
bers on High river, have struck this cache
and are having an exceedingly high old
time with the contents. 1t might be as
we'll for the authorities TO make some en-
quiry in this matter, if for nothing else
than at least to a Y SO much good liquor
being wasted on the untutorcd savage.

HAD EN- FIXED.

DR.. Burleish, formerly Of Dakota, but
now living in Montana, tells a good story
on himself, which is extremely funny
when Il has an opportunity TO listen 70
he was the agent Of the Sioux Indians at
Yankton. Some one, who probably want
ed the position, preferred charges against
him, and & commission was sent out from
Washington to investigate. When the
commission arrived at Iankton they were
entertained with . banquet. DIR. Burleigh
proposed that two Interpreters be select
ed, one to represent the commission and
one himself. In this way one could
check the other and Il fair deal be assured.
The doctor was anxious that the whole
thing thing should be probed to the bot
tom. The head chief of the tribe was
the first witness called. He said the great
father had sent them a very bad man J;
that the agent went down into their peck
cts and took their money; that he took
goods from the agency store through a
hole in the fioor-in fact he was a very
wicked man. Of course, the doctor had
both of the interpreters fixed, and this IS
the way they translated the chiefs evil
dence: The chief said the great father
had sent them a great and good
that when they were poor and hungry he
would SO down into his own pockets and
give them money to buy food; when they
needed clothing he would go into his
store and supply them" The commits
sion went back to Washington and gave
Burleigh a fine endorsement, and he was
not removed from ofice.-Pioneer Press.

COW QUARREL.

Cattlemen are beginning to quarrel
among themselves over what they are
pleased to term their range" At least
such is the case in the Yellowstone coun-
try. It seems john II. Conrad attempted
to turn q herd Of 5000 cattle on q range
claimed by the Niobrara Cattle company.
The cattle were turned back by the Mo
brara company's manager, ard word sent
to Dir. Conrad that if he persisted in turn
ing mis- cattle on their range" lie would
have to fight. The outcome Of this trou-
bic will likely prove Interesting reading.
as Mr.. Conrad is not to be blufIed. Some
thing similar to this occurred in the Ma
rlas country last spring. d. A. G. Flow
erree declared his intentions of turning
his sun river herd on that range, and was
informed by the resident coWmen that if
he did they would not roundup with him
and would bother him plenty, or words
to that effect. The bluff didn't work.
Flowerree was not constituted in that
manner, and when he saw that he would
not be granted any privileges by the local
association, he net only turned his Sun
river herd on the forbidden range, but al
50 drove up another herd from the Vel
lowstone, and it is pretty hard to tell who
the Aiarias range belongs to now. Flow
cree viii roundup his cattle without the
assistance of any Of his brethren, and it is
a dead stand off" as to who can make it
the most disagreeahle if enc they get

such an immensely of power could create
il the ~ Of Edison and like l prae'l 8
ploved to furnish electric power, and it is
demonstrated that they are perfectly
practical for the purpose, it IS simply
impossible to place any limit upon the
monetary value Of this power, or to i'm
arine what the results will be when once
they are utilized, which they will be for
this very purpose before many years,
Such practically unlimited power, where
its utilization is so simple, will never be
allowed to waste itself away in this day

surrounding country is able to sustain
