hear of the death of E. E. Woods,
which occurred New Years morning.

years, but was attending to business as
usual up TO within few days of his
death. He had suffered from a bad
carbuncle on the cords of his neck for
"A few days and although it was thought
this alone did not cause his death, he
had not strength to rally and perhaps
his blood was poisoned. Mr.. Wood
had been in the mercantile business
here for many years and was promi-
nent in all business and church affairs.
He was IL good man and will be greatly
missed. He leaves wife 1.-THE daugh-
ter of N. MOrean) and four children.

ent, including the officers of COnnecti
cut River lodge, Barnet.

AM MERICAN BREADsTUFFs.

The United States have been the gran
ary of the world, and to this fact have
they owed their great prosperity. The
busy and crowded nations have looked
to America for their breadstuffs and the
bounty of nature has made us rich, but
our riches have made us h aughty. The
United States, by their prohibitive tariff,
have refused to buy OF the world, think
ing that the world must come to their
shores for meat and bread, The prohib-
tive tariff Of the United States has iso.
lated the United States and has taught
the nations to go elsewhere for their sup
plies of bread and meat. 1t is we'll that
it is so, for no country should have it
within its power to put its own price on
the necessaries OF life. The United States
had this power for many years, but they
used it not wisely. They have been will
ling that the nations should buy their
surplus wheat and beef, but they have
not been willing that the countries buying
that wheat and beef should dispose OF
their products in American markets with
out they wouldlpay forty or sixty per cent.
OF the price OF those products for the
privilege of trading in American markets.
What has been the consequence? The
different countries that have been ac-
customed to look to the United States
for their wheat and beef have looked
elsewhere for these, and they have
found them. To show that this
is the case there is no need to

THE UTAH & NORTHERN.
Probable Completion of n BrancI,
Road From Dillon TO Helena.

A Helena Herald reporter recently in
terviewed Mr.. J. NJ. Page of Twin Bridges
concerning the work lately done OH the
proposed branch of the Utah & Northern
from Dillon to Helena. Mr.. Page, who
is competent engineer and resident of
the section where the work was carried
on, gave some information concerning it
which may be of interest to readers OF
the Inter-Mountdin and to the people of
Montana generally. Mr.. Page said that
about the first of last December Mr.. Ray,
chief engineer of the Utah & Northern,
with large force of men, commenced
grading for roadbed between Dillon and
Glen station. The work was continued
for three weeks, when the force was with
drawn. During that time the sum OF
$12 900 was expended, and five or six
miles of standard road bed were graded.
This was done, it appears, simply as rep
resentation work, as the company was
compelled if it wished to hold its charter
| to do certain amount Of work on the
line each year. No work was done in
Jefferson canyon, although chief engineer
Ray made an inspection of it with the
view of doing some. In this canyon the
company has expending $3.50, 900 in grad
ing road bed, and has quite section
there ready for the ties. AS it was graded
for a narrow guage road it will be widened
to standard guage when the time ar
rives for laying the track. Mr.. Page says
the settlers are not averse to the road,
as they are in need of railroad facilities,
and will do all in their power to further
the completion of the line, by donating
right of way, etc.
The Herald thinks that the Utah &
Northern branch from Dillon to Helena
will be completed during the present
year us it understands the charter for the
road will expire at the beginning of 1887,
and that the company will not apply for
its renewal without performing consider
able work upon the road. 1t also says
that the Northern Pacific company is
making every effort to enter Butte, but it
is ut the same time desirous of prevent
ing the Union Pacific from coming to
Helena. 1t is not very probable, how
ever, that such one-sided agreement
will be arrived at, and if the former sue
ceeds in establishing railroad connection
with Butte, the natural consequence will
be the rapid following on the part of the
Union Pacific with its branch road to
| Helena,

"CURIoUs how ones feelings get blunt
ed by the sight OF blood and horrors"
says Sir Charles Wilson, in his new mar
rative OF the Nile expedition. "There
was one strange incident. An unwound-
ed Arab, armed with spear, jumped up
and charged an officer. The officer grasp
ed the spear with his left hand, and with
his right ran his sword through the Arabs
body; and there, for few seconds, they
stood, the officer being unable to with
draw his sword until man ran up and
shot the Arab. 1t was living embodi-
ment of one OF the old gladiatOrial fres-
Goes at Pompeii. 1t did not, strange 10
say, seem horrible; rather, after what
had passed, an everyday occurrence.

call in the laws of political economy, but
merely to refer to the report Of Senator
Cullom. That report, as telegraphed,
says that "the outlook is not good for the
United States to ship breadstuffs In un-
limited quantities throughout the civilized
world, and that the principal markets,
both for bread and meat, must henceforth
be sought at home" If the United States
must henceforth seek for markets for
both their bread and meat at home, what
will they send forth to the markets of the
world? Egypt and India can supply,
and very largely are supplying, the world
with raw cotton. The petroleum fields
Of Russia are as extensive as those
Of the United States, and are fast being
developed, so that i'm these matters this
country is no longer the only source of

Congressional report that henceforth they
must seek at home market for their
products. This should make them recog-

manufactured goods than they would
