good graces of miller, who in his whole
souled hospitable way invited him to his
home. The invitation was accepted and
many subsequent ones, too. The miller's
daughter grew farer each day in his eyes,
and twas evident she was far from indif-
ferent to the attentions paid her. They
grew so fond that they were quite unhap-

sought as much as possible to be together.
Sometimes she would accompany him on
his sketching tours; and Sunday after
moons, when all the village WAS out of
doors, they might be seen lettering along
some woodland path or clambering to the
top of some favorite hill. But there was
one spot they used most often to visit. that
was in the shade of an oak on the SUNNY
slope of hill that overlooked the village
and the lowlands which extended beyond
and were held in by a line of hills on
either side. Here they used often to be-
| guile the hours of the summer afternoons.
| The artist was at last aroused to con-
seriousness of the fact that his ''few DAYS"
had heightened into weeks and even
months, for the changing color of the
forest leaves were signs that summer was
past and autumn was at hand. He must
return to his home, for he has already
tarried too long. The day has arrived for
his departure, will he come back again |?

Enclosed find letter from Gen Brooke

The people of Missouri valley have
commenced the agitation of county
division. or in other words, the con-
struction of what they would delight
to call Valley county, by taking slice
off from Meaghcr and Jefferson. II
is not Mt all likely that the legislature
has the power, under the restriction
act passed by last congress, to estab-
lish new counties. II would certainly
be a species of special legislation OF the
rankest kind. Neither Jefferson nor
Meagher are able to stand such n
knifeing at the present time. The total
valuation OF assessable property in
Meagher county as it now stands Il
not greatly in access OF that OF Fergus,
while the population is about equal.
To take from Meagher the populous
Missouri valley and the wealth from
which a. Now county IL to he main
tanned would be a drain on the life
blood of the mother county, which
would leave her i'm poverty and dis
tress-with just sufficient means to
maintain county government, if that.
With a portion OF Jefferson, Valley
county might maintain existence, but
it would he precarious.
The creation of Fergus county was
an absolute necessity; n piece OF wise
and Just legislation, which appealed to
the reason and judgment of every
honorable man in the last legislature,
Fergus county is an empire by itself,
divided from the old county by noun
tain ranges and miles OF uninhabitedi
territory. 1t was prepared for sepa-
rate government by is population and
wealth, and the distance from county
seat had severely tried the patience OF
it's people. Citizens OF the Missouri
valley are in days ride Of the
county-seat. over the best stage line
in theterritory. Valley county sounds
well, and will be a good name for a
new county eight or ten years from
now, but should not he considered at
present by our legislators, even though
they had the power.

as he followed the lines OF his paper
We take only one exception To Mr..
Stuart's arraignment. That il the
endorsement OF .Mont's' article. -
While publisher knows the true
name OF "A correspondent always, lac
may never endorse or believe what he
him may result from oversight, press
ure of business, or u desire to see
Others, more capable, step into the
arena However, we will demand in
the future, that parties attacking any
association, through the ARGUS, sign
their real names. This is the most
honorable course to pursue. II leaves
no doubt as to the author, and not
much as to his motives in making the
attacks. 1t is wrong to expect the
publishers to shield their identity
Oftentimes the origin of such letters
are credited to the editors OF the paper
in Which they appear. The attack on
an association is equivalent to that
on an individual, very often. Corpo-
rations are but an aggregation oi
individuals. Not all are heartless and
grasping.
We invite correspondence, more the
merrier. But when men have charges
to make of serious nature they should
have the courage, and faith in their
utterances to attach their names.

versy, for instance. wool grower Is

The total vote of Colorado for con.
gressn,ap this year is 5S,25S, that OF
Montana is 32,262. Colorado has
been a state for ten years and Monta-
ma has been a territory for more than
twenty-five years. In 1870 the popl-
lation of Colorado was only 39,S64,
very nearly the same as that of Mon
tara in 1880. In the latter year the
population of Colorado had increaset
to 1e4,327. At the time OF admission
it's population could not have exceeded
13O 600, and that is not more than
Montana can claim to-day. II Color

The Hushandman jumps onto our

which fault was found with the gov

drive their bands upon the Indian res

His pen was moved by warped con
s.,ience and bad digestion. The dry
and grassless ranges forbode disaster
to the cattlemen and one of our great

and child in Montana should rejoice
that the great calamity is partly
avsrted. The burden of taxation
would fall heavily upon those least
able to bear it should ourcattle perisi,

primrose affair" but attended with
great loss and expense. There is moth

smacks Of exclusive rights, and to
raise the impression is but the trick of

TOO MUCH OF BOTH.

Our neighbors up the river are giving
themselves a good deal of unnecessary
trouble about what some preachers are say
ing of the religious conditions of the state
university. 1t doesn't make particle of
difference what the preachers say about it
as long as the state university is not
theological seminary. The institution is
suffering more from the political conditions
which influence its management than it is
from either a lack or an overabund-;
ance of religion. 1t is a secular school, and
evangelical religion is not an element in its
management. 1t is also public institu-
ton, and partisan politics should have
nothing to do with it. But unfortunately
they do. There is such thing as rendering
unto CESAR the things that are CEsAR's,
and unto GOD the things that are COPS.
Partisan politics and denominational re-
ligion are two things that have no business
in state university. At present there
seems to be too much of both in the Min

A WORTHY MODEL

While the American system of govern
ment may not be perfection. it is yet as
near it as any form which has vet been de-
vised by man. 1t is, therefore, gratifying
to observe that England is displaying a
tendency to copy after and adopt different
features of American political life, from
methods of campaigning to forms of
legislative procedure. American political
phrases are now common in parliamentary
speeches since. by the modelling after mat
tiers prevalent upon this side of the water,
the things which they describe have come
into existence as part of English politics.
1t may be vain to hope that it will be
speedily brought about, but some time in
the future it may be presumed that this
patterning after things American will result
in giving England a republic in form as well
as in fact. AS a preliminary she might
initiate the American love for justice and
liberty, and cease the blind and arrogant
opposition to Mr.. GLADsToNE's grand
scheme granting legislative independence

OHIO DEMOCRATS.
A Meeting of the State Central Com
niittee.

Special to the Globe.
COLUMBUS, o., May 26.--The Demo-
cratic state central committee held meet
ing here tonight. On account of Gen.
Durbin Wards funeral many members of
the committee were absent. Ex-Gov.
HOadiyi.and nearly all the Democratic
senator's who deserted during the recent
senatorial troubles were present. Mr..
Hoadley, in a speech, said that when the
Democratic senators were compelled to give
up the Fourth ward OF Cincinnati,
many Democrats concluded that the Hamil-
ton county Democratic senators were enti
tied to their seats, and Il frankly
say that l was of this opinion" said the ex-
governor. He said that if the Democrats
had remained in the senate and fought the
battle, even il they had been defeated. they
would have gone down with the sympathy
of the Democratic party. He believed the
seating of the four Republicans to have
been unconstitutional. but that if the SUI
preme court, which is Republican, says it
was right there is nothing to do but submit.
Senator O'Nelll denounced Clerk of the SEN
ate Valandingham very strongly. Senator
Dodd branded Mr.. Valandingham as frank
traitor" Hon. S. A. Miller, of Cincinnati,
said the grand jury of Franklin county
ought to indict Lieut.-Gov. Kennedy and
the seventeen Republican sureties for per-
jury, in violating their oaths. Ex-
Gov. Hoadley, Judge Mckinney,
Gen. Powell and Senators O'Neill
and Lawrence were appointed to prepare
memorial Oh the life and services of the
late Gen. Durbin Ward. No time was set
for the state convention, but it was gener-
ally agreed that it should be held about the
middle of August or 1st of September.
