The Florence Canal.

Some two years G a company was
organized in Helena for the purpose OF
taking out an irrigatingca canal in the South
Fork of Sun river country, and known
as the Elarence Ditch. Work on the en-
tcrprise was vigorously pushed during
the summer and fall of "a, and a con-
siderable portion Of the heaviest work
was completed. Since that date nothing
more has been done, bat we are reliably
informed that operations will be com
menced the present season. aud continued
until the work is completed. The canal
will be fifty miles long and will carry
sc, inches of water, and is expected
to reclaim $4,000 aeres land. Three
quarters Of al inch Of w-ter is consider
ed sufficient to irrigate ona acre of Egrouad
SO it will he seen thatthe canal Will cary
a surplus Of $4,000 inches Of water. The
water for the canal is taken ont Of the
South Fork Of Sun river near the noun

the canal is & lake, to which, during the
freshet period, the water will be con
Quoted, and which will answer as a reser-

Thoughtful Words.

In this age of universal education, of
rapid progress in all the arts and sciences,
OF books, periodical and newspaper
without end, it really is surprising to see
what an enormous number of people
know little or nothing of what is going
on all around them. They move along
through life, bearing nothing, and
doing nothing for the advancement
of general knowledge. They seem to be
possessed of no ambition to raise them
selves Or aid others to rise who wish to
do so. II everyone was like such people,
what would the world be: The human
race would, without a doubt, sink far be-
low the level of ordinary intelligence;
there would be no progress, no %cultiya-
ton Of the intellect, everything would
deterlorate. Retrogression would be the
order of the day. When men see a Young
man who evinces the slightest talent in
any direction that will in any way tend
i benefit the race, intellectual, mofall,,

':'sirage that youth and help him as far as
lies in their power, instead of nakinnfun

A Esg Enterprise.

Two years ago a company was organic
ed and incorporated in Helena, composed
of A. II. Hotter. S. T. Hauser and seYeral
other enterprising citizens of that city,
for the purpose of taking out an immense
irrigating canal near the head Of the
North fork of Sun river, which was in
tended to water the entire bench between
the Sun and Teton rivers, from the
mountains to the falls of the Missouri, a
distance Of about se~venty-five miles. The
entire route of the canal was surveyed,
and expert engineers sent gu by the
company, pronounced the scheme prac-
ticable, and made an estimate Of the nuln-
Der Of acres Of good agricultural land
which would be reclaimed. The exact
figures we have forgotten, but it vas in
the hundreds Of thousands somewhere.
During the fall Of "a, a contract was
let to w. Fl. Green, for a few miles of
the work at the head of the canal, which
was almost solid rock from the surface
down. We do not know whether the
work was completed or not, but rather
think it was not. At any rate the work
was abandoned late in the fall, and moth
ing more has been heard Of tile canal
until lately, when it was given out
that work would be recommended the
present spring, and continue until the
canal was completed. As evidence of this
seventeen teams are at present engaged
on the work, and this force will be added
to as rapidly as others can be secured.
The original dimensions of the ditch
yer e:tTenty-two feet wide on the bottom,
a mean depth Of five feet, and the length
ssventy-fve miles more or less. It was
made this size in order that timber and
wood could be fosted down from the
mountains, for the convenience of settlers.
Whether the original plans will be diverg-
ed from, We are not advised, hut are of
the opinion they will be, as tho cost OF
cutting a canal of this size, will figure up
into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. |
and the company may conclude that a
ditch will answer as well, which |
it will, although we should like to see
he original plans carried out.
The consnmation of this great enter
prise will be a priceless boon to Northern
Montana, and it is hoped that the work
now commenced will be prosecuted with
sigor until completed. It Will open a
of agricultural land capable of
furnishing homes to hundred OF families.
The quality OF the land, while apparent
y not rs rich, as IN many other localities,
t will nevertheless, in tue hands of IN
iustfions farmers yield a handsome
.evenue. 1t is claiaed by theorists that
he soil is particularly adapted to the

Showing Their Spleen.

The \. T. railroad folks are trying to
break the back of the Montana Central
enterprise by charging them IN exlior-
bitant price for hauling the rails for the
road from St. Paul to Helena. By the
rate the n. ?. proposes to charge, the
freight bill on the rails alone would
amount TO about s700,0oo. Luckily the
hackers of the Montana Central are not
at tbs mercy Of this corporation by any
means, and unless theyzean secure d fair
rate, will find some other means of trans
portation, or for that matter the rails can
be manufactured in Montana, as there is
lack Of proper material.

Nothing has been heard lately OF Great

syndicate that claim to own it, have with.
drawn their flashy colorea and purely
imaginative advertisements from the
Eastern newspapers, suppressed their
prospectus, discharged their brokers,
balanced their bank account, and HE'D
themselves to the sea-shore or some other
cool and refreshing resort where they can
ponder over the old saw: 1.-THE way of
the transgr-ssor is strictly tough" the
effect of which they will fully realize in
due time.
In the beginning, it required 90 per
cent. pure gall for this syndicate to name
their proposed town Great Falls City, and
afterwards, the gall it required to make
their prospectus, was absolutely pure.
Had they anything to show for their ex
travagant claims, the scheme would not
appear 81 outlandishlr& fraudulent, hut
they have not, and non are aware of the
fact better than the ,ineorporators, or at

promised their regulations by lending
their names and positions to a fraud
which is as transparent as window glass,
and fully as fragil.
It was evidently the intention of the
concern to fly under the worldwide p
tation Of Great Falls, a Legitimate, enter
prising and growing town, which, owing
to its many natural advantages and prac-
ticably inexhaustible resources, has
gained an envitable reputation, not only

Violent and Vicious

The Helena Herald throws out Il vicious
kick at Great Falls, in the following:
1--WE wish to remind our West side cotem.
that the erection of smelling works at
Great Falls has not. yet begun. We would
further state that 'their contemplated
erection at that point is a conception of
the uninitiated and one not entertained
by any great number of people. The
proposed works will materialize n:arer
the other end of the line"
1t will be just eas we'll for the Herald
man to keep cool and not delude himself
with TIE idea that Helena can appropriate
all the good things in Montana. This
territory is still young and its largest
towns are still small. Before the railroad
map of Montana is finished, and when its
resources are better understood, there
will be many surprises. There are two
or three things in connection with this
subject that are as certain as earthly
matters generally are, AMI they are rs
follows:
First-Grcat Falls will be one import
ant railroad center.
Second-1ts water power and coal will
be utilized within the city limits, &nd
will be employed in the establishment of
industries, that the resources of Montana
naturally suggest and will warrant. 1t is
as natural that the ores from our noun
tains should be shipped to Great Falls,
to ssbe smelted and miiled, as that the
wheat from the prairies of Minnesota
and Dakota should be shipped to Mime
apolis to be manufactured into -four.
There is NJ power for propelling machin-
cry in Montana, that can compete with
the w~ater-power Of the Black Eagle or
Rainbow falls of the Missouri river. If |
the wealthy and broad guage syndicate
who are undertaking to establish a great
manufacturing center at this place, cannot
establish reduction works here on an ex-
scale, they viii never be able to
accomplish for Great Falls, the plans they
have marked out
