The Park railroad.

The Helena Herald has carefully look
ed into the requirements of Cooke City
and has the candor and honesty to give
expression to the following
"The eastern press seems to have the
idea that the National park is about the
size of the Central park in New York
city, and thinks that the grant of railroad
right of way through one corner would
be desecration and destruction. We
must bear patiently with the ignorance
and misconception that prevails and
satisfy the objectors that no possible in
jury can be done to the Park, and that it
is altogether unreasonable that in i'm
portant mining section should be cut
off from its only available outlet in con-
descension 10 this ignorance. Even if
the worst fears expressed are realized,
that the admission of one road Will lead
to the admission of others, the result
would not be injurious in our opinion,
but in every way proper. Of what use
is park unless it can be visited and en-
joyed? The area of the park is about
three times that of the state of Rhode
Island and exceeds that of Delaware and
Rhode Island together. To accommo-
date any considerate number of visitors
will require large supply of horse power
in addition to all the consistent outlay
of physical strength the visitors may
possess. 1t is expensive keeping horses
in the park, and sooner or latter, rather
sooner, it will be absolutely necessary to
admit railroads. Foreseeing this certain
result, why not admit them at once, in
stead of spending money on wagon roads
that then would be useless. All that the
subject needs is proper understanding
of the facts and conditions to reach a
common verdict of what is proper to be
DONE"

A welcome to the President 5.

Senator German of Maryland has in
troduced a bill authorizing the president
to invite the presidents of the Is Amer
lean republics to meet in Washington on
the 9Th of March, 1887, in honor of the
Tooth anniversary of the present fonssi-
tuition of the United States. This is the
way of COMPRISING the object embraced
in Senator Frye's bill, providing for a
conference of the representatives bf the
American republics. Such a conference
would result in good. America for
Americans" in respect of close national
and commercial relations, should De the
shibboleth of the western hemisphere.
Whichever party is entitled to credit for
organizing the movement, the object
should certainly be compassed. No
more emphatic evidence of the necessity
for such a conference can be shown,
than the fact that the vast exhibit of
the southern republics in the New Or
leans exposition had to be first shipped
by British lines to Liverpool, and re-
shipped by British lines from Liverpool
to the United States. No direct line be-
tween the North and South American
states exists.

There are only about two dozen white
men at this point, with nothing Tor

distant, and there is no stock in the
country no farming land, no grazing

covered logs and brush. The support OF
this town is derived from the Cassaar

which the miners 90 and come 25O miles

ried on by canoes and Indians. The
mines are about played out and SO is

here. Mining has been carried on at
this place for the last four or five years.
The placer mines of this camp have all
been worked out. There is slight eX-

not speak from hearsay.
Sitka is about the same distance from
Wrangle as Harrisburg, and there is
nothing there but a few government
officials and soldiers.
There is no game here outside of few
deer.
The Ucon river, of which you have
heard SO much, it about 1000 miles from

point, but nothing to get excited over
Altogether Iwould advise my best friends
to stay away for while at least; some
gold has been found, it is true, but not
enough to justify rush OF miners.

Farm Notes.

Onions may be set out just as soon as
the frost leaves the ground. They en-
dure quite a degree of cold, and make
good headway before other crops are put
in the ground.
Never allow stock of any kind to come
in contact with your trees. You might
as we'll never plant young tree as TO
allow cattle, horses, pigs or sheep tP get
at it for day.
Texas, according to a current para
graph, purposes going OUT of official fish
mongering. The state ponds were "froz-
en- solld'- during the recent cold snap,
and "the carp all killed"
From the best information available,
Farm and Fireside concludes that any
of the incubators will hatch eggs "lf you
sit by them day ana night and don't
sleep too long at time"
An experiment was recently made at
the Michigan agricultural college to see
how much hay equal lots of Merino and
Southdown sheep would eat up clean.
The result showed about an equal con-
sumption, although the Southd0wns
averaged nearly fifty pounds heavier
than the other sheep.
1t is reported by those who have tried
it that ground rye is very fattehing,
especially for hogs. 1t is excellent feed
for working horses, ranking next to oats
for giving strength, and superior for
keeping in condition. Rye is notIgood
for feeding to breeding animals, as it is
liable to contain ergot, which will cause
abortion. But for fattening or bringing
any animal in heat, rye cannot be ex-
ceiled
The neglect of stock in the spring en-
tails heavy loss all through the summer;
especially is this true with horses that
have to carry the burden of spring work.
Without making superhuOus flesh, they
should be gradually fed up and kept at
work sufficiently to harden them, so
that when the plOwing has to be done
they will be in good working order.
You must not stint the supply of food
to cows that are fresh, or they WIZ lose
so much flesh that the milk yield will be
materially cut done all through the sum-
mer, for the COW will look after her own
fesn before she will devote herself to
the milk pail. Give the ralves and
young things generally that generous
care that surely starts them on success
full career. Neglect to young Is the first
step toward shiftless farming. The cold
rains and north winds of this month are
much more trying on all kinds OF i've
stock than colder and dryer weather.
For this reason keep all stock housed
that can be. Do not allow warm DAYS
to deceive you into keeping the animals
out at night, when they are likely to be-
come painfully chilled.-American Agn-
culturist.

A Monopoly.

The Bell Telephone Company is sud.
denly brought face to face with new
calamity in the decision of the full
bench of the Indiana supreme court,
confirming the decision of the court
below, to the effect that the state has
the right to regulate the tolls charged by
a telephone company for the use of its
facilities, and hence that the act of the
legislature reducing the monthly rentals
of telephones from S5 to So per month,
is constitutional and valid. In answer
to the claim of the company that the
telephone patents are issued by the
United States, and hence that the state
had no power to regulate them, the
court holds that there is a reserved, and
at the same time well-recognized power
affecting the domestic concerns of a
state, which the government rarely
attempts to invade. This power is some
times denominated the "police power,'
and embraces the entire system of inter-
nal state regulation. The court quotes
the further well-se tiled legal proposition
that property thus devoted to public use
becomes legal subject of legislative regu-
lation and control. Naturally enough,
the next legislature of Montana will have
something to say upon the subject OF
telephone tolls.

The crow Scheme.

One who knows what IS working in
the Crow craniuus informs us that the
action of the Crows in locating ranches
all over the reservation is intended to
counteract the effect of any treaty to
open the reservation. They imagine
that by scattering they will be able to
hold all the lands in the reservation, no
matter what congressional action may
take place. Whoever put this notion
into their heads has kept his own coun-
sci. If the bill for the apportionment of
Indian lands, now under consideration,
should become law, this scattering of
the savages will not be Objectionable.
Located on quarter-section tracts, and
surrounded by white settlers, their tribal
relations will be efectually severed, and
they will more readily take up the arts

PercherOn Horses.

Hundreds of stations are now annu-
ally imported from France to the Unite1
States The immense wealth they are
adding to the nation will be better
understood from the estimate that the
first cross of a Percheron stallion with a
native mare, doubles the selling value of
the colt when mature. The accomplish.
ment of these grand results is greatly
due to the energy of one man, to whom
the American people are greatly indebt-
ed, he having imported and distributed
to almost every state and territory, near
ly 1000 Percheron horses. A visit to
Mr.. NJ. w. Dunham's "Oaklawn Farm, T"
at Wayne, Illinois, will give new ideas of
the magnitude of the horse improve
ment of the country.

At a recent Presidential reception the
Italian Minister lost a valuable decor
alton, set with diamonds, and val lued at
$1,000. The White House was turned
inside out in the search, the president
himself feeling abstractedly in his pock-
cts. The police were called in, and sus-
picion descended like a thousand jf brick
on the heads of the domestics. Subse-
ouently stableman found the missing
article between the cushions of d carri-
age. He carried it to the Italian lega-
ton. The minister seized it delightedly,
overwhelmed the lucky and honest
finder with valuable Italian thanks and
handed him fifty cents.

TIE AoUEDUCr BRIDGE.
II Is still Pronounced Unsafe and
should Not lie Used,


Building Inspector Entwisle and Assist
ant Engineer David McComb yesterday
examined the Aqueduct bridge by order of
the District commissioners, and they sub
mlttcd the following report:
AS directed by you, we have this 1ay made
an examination of the Aqueduct bridge, and
report that diagonal bracing has been placed
nt each pier, which with the top lateral brac-
ing system, will probably prevent movement
OF the upper portion of the structure westward.
Repairs have been made to the nooring hand
Tail, and top chord, and these portions OF the
structure are In fair condition. The lower
lateral system has not been repaired, and Is in
n bad condition. The lower chords are In
condition, n large number of the members
being absent and many In such condition as
not to be OF service. The lumber supporting
the trunk is also In bad condition. Many Of
and and V 6roseps s VICES We SIS do O"n not 'r''ESq fee
justified IN saying that the bridge should be
used, well knowing the difficulty OF restricting
It's use tot limited degree, aud also knowing
that the bridge has not sufficient iactor Of
safety for sustaining It's own weight, II being
very heavy structure, ns well as being en-
numbered by a large amount OF rotten and
otherwise defective lumber, in addition TO the
sound lumber In position. This defective ma
tcrial not only adds its weight to the structure,
but It's presence starts and RGsiens delay in the
sound lumber. Tho plan of construction Of
this bridge Is faulty, the trunk being partly
supported by truss from the piers and partly
with the remaining portion OF tho structure
by two independent systems u Howe truss
and wooden Arch TO realize a benefit from
which combination requires moro delicate
manipulation of tic rods than 1t is likely will
be given, ana II the load Is supported by any
impact would probably destroy in detail the
remaining systems.
