ILLEGALLY FENCING SCHOOL LANDS.

The practice OF fencing the public land,
set apart for school purposes i quite COM
mon in Montana. In Beav.rhead County
school lands are inclo>ed by persons who,
by reason OF inclosing the lands within a
fence. are LAYING claim to such land. 1ndi-
vidual> who inclose any OF said lands are
tre>pa>~ing. These lands are set apart
for school purposes and they should be re-
spectcd and protected. Some OF these sec.
tons Of school lands are valuable. and as
the country settles up with more pop"-
lation all such lands will become more
valuable. The object OF the partie, who
;cnce school lands appears to be 'wo-fold
First, to Use the lands for their private
benefit and second 20 lay some kind Of 4
claim to the lands. No one has Il RIG ht to
inclo>c school lands with fence, and all
such fences should be removed The re.
,noval OF these fences has been decided on
nv the Government. On March 18th,
Smith wrote to the L. S. Attorney. Gener-
nj 10 get his const, ucton Of the act OF
February IS. SSs,lroh;hiting the fencing ot
public lands, and to know whether or not
school Or university lands were included or
embraced in the term ''public lands as
used in said act ot Congress. The Attor.
ncv.General referred the matter to Score.
tary OF the Interior Lamar. Secretary
gives it Us his opinion that the act of Feb.
ruarv IS, 1855, covered the school lands as
we'll MS other public lands. The Secretary
OF the Interior having 50 decided, the L. S.
Attorney General directed the L. S.
District Attorney for Montana. on the 10Th
day Of April, 1856, to prosecute all tress.
passer$ on school lands, and have all
fences removed. This direction to prose.
cute parties and have the fences removed
applies to all parts Of Montana Territory.
We are informed that proceedings will lie
commenced against all trespassers and
that the Law will be enforced. Trespaxs.
ers on school lands. by complying viii,
due notification, will save themselves the
trouble Of being prosecuted for illegally
fencing said lands by removing their
fences as speedily as possible.

THE PRESIDENT On THE LABOR
QUESTION.

President Cleveiand's special message
on the labor question is excellent and
timely. The President spares the faults Of
neither side OF the controversy. lie saws
that as the labor Of the country has en.
t'urcd extreme oppression in too many
cases, BY natural law which no skill can
evatle, it will use its new.found power OF
organization to make unjust demands This
fact may rs we'll be philosophicallv conced.
cd at tho start, and not quarrclled with. lfso
treated we are rid Of one bar to reaching
the just medium which is to be the founea-
ton of the rights Of all. Every wise man
knows that labor is not served bv an un.
lust attack upon capital, for it can easily
seqnester in many safe place, and its
withdrawal from productive enterprise
deprives labor OF employment. On the
other hand, every wise man knows that
hardening the conditions of labor, the re-.
duction of wages to :he bare neces>ares OF
existence, followed by the CONSUMPTION Of
women and children into the army Of
bread winners, Is the beginning OF M.
tional decay that is very difficult to arrest
The President treats each extreme in his
message, and wisely suggests an easy
remedy that lies at just mean between
the extremes. Coercion or boycottiny
will not work. for it is the employment of
force, instead OF which the principle OF vol
untary assent should prevail. Good citi.
zenship requires, in all things, the promo.
ton OF the voluntary principle and the re-.
tircment OF force to the rear. Hence a
plan for settling our labor troubles, us rear
the voluntary plan as possible, should be
adopted.

The Mating of Human Beings.

ltrom the CnlcaRO CuFronI.J
 The mating of human beings is matter beyond the science of man. As near as may be God joins two souls. The causes of se- lection are unknown and we have. little hope of their discovery. This we do know: Whatever breeding to secure brains has so far been had has been a complete failure. Now and then there has been 8 line of smart men-often family of smart people, but we believe the union of poet with a Phi issue than the union of two poets. What instinct makes the sad philosopher to wed a merry minimizing wife may not be inquired into. What instinct fills fat man with love for lean wife, or short woman for a tall husband, who can tells Why tow headed woman should despise a "beautiful blonde mustache" is another hard question. But as to the progress of man: It is certain that we cannot make any great advance until we come to better knowledge of the limi- tation of man. Already business men are killing themselves on every side because they overestimate their powers of recuperatlon Undoubtedly nature is work in every love affair to restore disturbed balance. Per haps life has largely to do with magnetism. The mere presence of an objectionable man is worse than his words or actions. If & man overwrought or overworking in the mind fall in love, he not unlikely seeks a flow of magnetism toward him that may re- store his vitality. It is almost certain that he will fly from the absorptiye soul that sdores him for his mental grandeur. He wants none of that, for it saps hlm and af- ter satiety throws him away. How to raise William Shakespeares and Newtons and Dar- wins and Ericssons is not to be known just now It is good philosophy which speaks of them as the products of an age rather than of two parents.

An ArIstocratIc Cowboy.

! For a number of weeks, says the Kansas City correspondent of the Philadelphia News, many people have doubtless noticed about the streets of Kansas City man of very striking personal appearance. His broad sombrero and riding whip clearly would have stamped him the typical cowboy even without his rough, black, shaggy beard and long, curling, glossy locks hanging down over his shoulders. This man has very in- terestiDg history. His name is Felix Gou- jon. Less than year ago he was a leader in Paris society.
 Two years ago he was in possession of an annual income of three hundred thousand francs, with equipages of all sorts, running stable of thoroughbred racers; recognized generous in his gifts; popular and widely known, and moving in that circle where, no better than in Paris, the youthful scions of European nobility can waste their substance in riotous living. He is a Frenchman, the son of wealthy and influential parents, whose father in his lifetime held inn portant and highly elevated position at the imperial court of Alexander II. of Russia. A fast life in the midst of the gay and enticing society of Paris, Moscow and St.. Petersburg sank within few years for
 tune valued at half dozen millions. A
 little less than 8 year ago the end was
 reached and colossal fortune had been
 wrecked. Old associations were severed,
 and last February the French steamship
 "La Normandie" had among it's passengers,
 bound for New York, the man who volun-
 tarily exiled himself to retrieve past errors
 He went to New Mexico, and there to-day,
 in Socorro county alone among his own
 cowboys, he lives to all appearances happi-
 ly and contentedly. He has assumed their
 customs and their ways.
 It would be hard to find better inguist.
 To him German, Russian, Swedish, Spanish
 and half dozen other languages are as fa-
 miliar as his native tongue. Of an adven-
 turous disposition, he has travelled over near
 ly every quarter of the globe, inhabited and
 uninhabited. In company with Prince Mi
 chael Delgorouki, brother of the morganatic
 widow of the late Alexander II. of Russia,
 he was the first Frenchman to penetrate in
 1876 into the interior of Turkestan.

The Marking System.


 A good deal has been said concerning this their observance of it. Too much can hard ly be said of it's helpfulness toward keeping a house and it's contents in order.
 Mark plainly all sheets, pillow-cases, tow els, napkins, table cloths and white counter panes in your establishment. Ia the coun- try this may not seem so essential as in the city, but it will be found a saving in the end anywhere. Somehow things do disappear faster when they are not marked. There is no need of accusing people of dishonesty in order to account for this. There are many ways in which articles may be mistaken" for ones own.
 Mark all your own personal wardrobe which has to be washed. If this were inva- riably done 8 great deal of property would be saved and a great deal of trouble would be spared. For the sake of saving trouble to others, if for no other reason, all of ones handkerchiefs, collars and underclothing should be plainly and permanently marked. bottle of indelible ink is cheap, clean pen still cheaper, and bright, sunny day or 8 hot fat-iron will complete the business. Always keep on hand stick of linen tape, written over it's whole length with your name, or the names of your family, ready to be cut off and sewed on to stockings and such other articles as do not afford a good surface on which to mark.
 Then there are the paper patterns of which every mother has 8 store. On the outside of each, as it is tied up, the name of the pat tern should be plainly written. There are the rolls of pieces which may contain good deal not apparent from the outside. All these hidden mysteries should be indicated. The winter things, which are wrapped up and put away for summer, and the summer things, which are wrapped up and put away for winter, should all be in labeled packages, and every packing trunk should have on its lid complete list of it's contents.
 Then are the bottles marked and the boxes of powders and pills? Are the boxes of let ters methodically assorted and their contents easily ascertainable? Are the canned fruits and jellies and preserves all plainly labeleds Are the little packages of seeds distinctly marked!
 Take receipts for money paid and keep ac- counts. know a delightful family in which this system fiourishes in full force. The father is a man who has served his State in many public offices with honor; the mother is one of the most cultivated women in America. Their six children are bright, amiable and energetic. There is not wash able garment or household article in their home which is not distinctly marked; nor 8 bottle, nor jar, nor tumbler, nor package. The house is beautifully kept throughont-a st1ict observance of the marking system leads to this result; yet no one ever hears the mistress talking of her household machinery She reads nearly all the good literature Ego ing," and her conversation is enjoyed alike by cultivated men and intellectual women.
 ''And how does she ever get time to &C., complish so much?"
 Because she manages her house by means of the "marking system"

Famous Commissioner of Agrfcul
 ture Who Wrote 1t ssShooggur.''
 Washington Letter to the Philadelphia Record
 s'I was one of the Senator's" said vene- rable Republican statesman the other day, ''who favored the reelection of President Lincoln when that was a debatable question. I remember that one of the points they made against Lincoln was that he had appointed .an ignoramus commissioner of agriculture. ihst gentleman's name you may remember was Isaac Newton, and I think he was from Philadelphia. The graveness of the charge brought against him was that he could not spell.
 HThe opposition had gotten hold in some way of one of his note books, in which, among other ludicrous mistakes, was the word sugar spelled tshooggur.' Armed with this note book a committee of Sena- tors waited on President Lincoln and de- manded the removal of Newton. Whether he was removed or not they were going to spring the Newtonian spelling on the world at the first convenient opportunity. But they thought it only fair to give the Presi- dent chance to remove him first. So up to the White House they went.
 "When they came back I asked the chair man, distinguished New England Senator, what had occurred. Well, sir,' said he, 'Linooln is no better than Newton. Would you believe it, when I showed him that wretched spelling of the word sugar he said Well, Pm not sure but what that's right. Sugar spells soogar- -shooggur spells just what it says and what we all know it is. But whether that's right or wrong, gentlemen, is neither here nor there. I didn't appo;nt Newton and therefore I can't remove him. Mrs. Lincoln appointed him. She has the sole power of removal in this case. You may go to her if you please and if she re- moves him, remove him it shall be, but as 1,r,rv haa %o lar. ffar and vegetables and strawberries out of sea- son don't think she will remove him."
