Our town turned ont quite a good
crowd TO the circus as it was non po-

that it was one of the best performances
they ever witnessed in Woodstock.

herder has brought near about all his

the farmers in the future will do well TO

Some sswieked partner" must be writ
ing for the Spokane Falls Chronicle in
the absence s0f the editor. Mr.. Dicker'
son, who graduated in Montana journal
ism at Bozeman, and has surveyed the
territory from lofty eyrie at Butte
would never write that Great Falls "has
no country tributary to it to furnish wheat
to grind 81 timber to cut" Such igno-
rance Of Montana might be allowed in the
effete east, but in western journal it is
inexcusable. The Tribune map, which we
send our Esteemed contemporary, with
much general reading on Great Falls, will
show what8a broad country is tributary to
Great Falls, Because it is here that it will
find the best market for its products.
This matter of tributary" country
is much misunderstood. Minneapolis
brings most of the 100000 bushels
Of grain she grinds annually from
Dakota wheat-felds, which are on the
average 400 miles away. The lumber
which Minneapolis sells 50 largely comes
from forests which are more remote than
those which supply Great Falls. In like
manner, Duluth has become greater
wheat market than Chicago, although the
bulk Of her wheat comes from the Red
River valley and places beyond.
In the east the conditions are,still more
Surprising. New England, which makes
nearly alT the hardware we consume, i'm,
ports heI iron from Pennsylvania and the
south. She brings cotton from the south
and wool from Montana, and does large
business III farm produce, although her
hard, sterile soil lacks the richness of the
virgin soil of northern Montana. New
Jersey, which has become a great silk
producer, brings the raw material from
Europe and China, while Illinois makes

and nnsylyania steel.
