Cincinnati is now in the midst of
her one hundred days celebration of
the one hundredth aunivers ry of the
settlement of the Northwest Territory,
as a means of showing to the world
what has been accomplished in the
past century in arts and sciences and
material advancement. Her guarantee
fund of one million and fifty thousand
dollars, raised among the business
community gave ample scope for broad
minded management, and the result
is what might have been expected
triumph in all departments. All the
States contiguous to Ohio have become
officially connected with the enter
prise, and irom each one cen be seen
a separate and distinct display of trszs-
ures transferred from the capitol of the
country. There is an entertainment
department on the largest stage in tt q
world by the best talent of this and
the "old country" The Pioneer, Ho:
licultural, Agricultural and Machinery
Departments are as complete and Va
ried as money and time can make
them. The Educational, Religious
and Women's and Cbildren's Depart
ments are museums in themselves
The electrical display is of SURPRISING
brilliancy and profuseness, and in fact
there are thousand attractions, all oil
which singly are worth more than the
price of adm issiOn which embraces
the entire programme.

Montana Bulls,

Cattlemen, let us buy them in preference.
Wecan get good bulls in the states, and
we have to get them to renew our breed
ing, but 300 for a bull calf entitled to a
record is considered very low price.
We never see lower prices in any of the
eastern public sales But when we want
q go0d one we have to pay all the way
from $500 to $1,000. Conrad Kohrs
Of Beer Lodge, the heaviest Shorthorn
breeder in the territory, has on his hands
several bulls for which he paid s., 900 per
head. doubt if ever he bought one for
less than $3.50. have bought quite d
number myself and have paid $1,000 for
some. The cheapest one | bought cost
me $3.50. Other breeders have had the

those bulls and dams of equal record are
the same experience. The calves from
the bulls we have are for sale in Montana

OUR MINING INTERESTS.
A Prosperous Year Expected In Neihart-

NE1HART, March 14.-[Correspondence
Of the Tribune. Work is being pushed

scarcely any have any time to spare. All

with the fulfillment Of the promises made
By the Montana Smelling Compay and
Montana Central Railroad, our camp is
bound 10 be lively. l know of none who
have done work on any of their mines
that have not been amply repaid for their
enterprise. All, or mostly all, mines and
prospects are being shaped to sell well.
All We want is the aid Of capital. We do
not want to dispose Of our properties to
be free 81 q burden, but we want money
to help Us make dividend-paying proper
ties VI our mines. We know we have
good properties and we desire to "stay
With them and receive some Of the
profits, after waiting 50 long. Properties
can be secured here very reasonably if q
man has some money and means business.
Everyone here has number Of valuable
shUwings, and little money received for
one will greatly aid in developing an
other. We have all the men We neeu
here; it is capital we want. and let not
your readers be misled by the statement
that men seeking employment can get
work here. There is no work here for
anybody, as everyone does his own work,
and for that reason make the statement
that none may be misled.
We have the property here to make
good paying mines, and we wish to estab-
lish our camp upon its its best locations.
WeknoM if they are handled properly
they viii be dividend paying mines. The
man whp has only $500 to invest in min

invest mas business-like manner as he
who puts in $4,000. The more closely !
those who invest conform to their bust |

they confer upon our camp.
