A GRAND MOVE.

Mr.. Jas. Martin and other prominent
citizens, of Bnzeman, propose to raise
funds in this city for the purpose Of
awarding prizes to those who furnish the
best specimens of gram and vegetables
on day tn b4 hereafter designated. Ex.
perienced farmers will be selected to act
as judges and the specimens will after
wards be forwarded together with the
name ofthe raiser, to Agent Groat, in St.
Paul. who in turn will place them on
exhibition at the great fairs in the east.
Three years ago the specimens sent from
this valley attracted wide. spread atten-
ton throughout the east, and not few
people expressed the belief that it was
an extraordinary year. If we follow up
this year with specimens secured in the
manner proposed, there can be no doubt
as to the result, which will fully demon
strate the fact that the Gallatin valley is
the Egypt of AmeGi,a" in fact. Three
years ago the specimens were gathered
mostly within sight of the city of Boze.
man, but by the project proposed the farm
ers will be induced to bring in their
specimes from all parts of the county
and the exhibit will undoubtedly be tn
finest ever sent from the Northwest. II
is a plan worthy of the best efforts Of
our people.

The Art Of Advertising

The invention of printing. which was
80 little and simple thing in its Begin
nings, has developed with the genera
tions into myriad OF industries, many
of which seem to have no relation to
each other, till their origin is traced.
The process of sub. division and growth
is still going on in all the branches that
have sprung from the original type.
One of the latest and most important of
the outgrowths of the news paper pub
fishing business is the art of advertising,
Advertising has come along with news
paper as an essential and appropriate
part aud use of it, to be sure, but with.
in few years 1t has grown to business

other of the callings that are involved in
the making of newspapers and one re.

NATIONAL PARK MANAGEMENT

A great deal has been said, and we
realize the fact that it Is unpopular to
take Il contrary view OF the matter; yet.
in our opinion, military rule in the Park
is the proper course TO pursue, if a slight
amount of common sense is inserted
into the management of affairs. The
Park is too new, too large, and conse-
quently the administration of justice by
the civil authorities would be too expen-
sive. What the Park needs is a military
manager who is not too strict, one who
would take an interest in the domain
and encourage every thing that looked
towards it's improvement as pleasure
ground for the curiosity seeker. The
idea that the taking away of a few spec
linens is detrimental to this great area,
larger than the state of Rhode Island, is
q prep0sterous one. Even earthquakes
have failed to destroy, or even mar, one
single natural curiosity. Every year
adds something to the wonders Of the
Park, and the very nature of all of its
formations makes them recieative and
renews them every year. What we
want, then, is the Government to take
charge Of the Park, with a manager who
is something more than a strict discipli
marian. If civil officers are placed in
charge too often they are found to te
broken-down political hacks. who have
no other interest in their positions
than that of drawing their salaries.
We are satisfied with military rule, but
we want il more l,nient. We want peo-
pie to come to the Park and not feel op.
pressed by men in brass buttons, who
watch every move and keep strict sur.
villance oi every act. Capt. Harris, it is
true. is following out the orders of his
superior; but he has been in the Park
long enough to see wherein matters
be bettered and he should have enough
authority with the powers To secure dit
ferent arrangements.

The surprising call of the Prohibition
lists first appeared in the columns
of the Republican paper of this
city, and is a paid advertisement that
cost about $500. We say surprising. not
because its issuance was unexpected, but
because it did not at first appear in the
columns of the organ of the Prohibition
party. Perhaps, however. it was thought
that its appearance IN Republican
paper would be the means OF turning a
great many Republicans from the evil of
their ways. Or perhaps the leaders of
the Prohibition movement forgot for the
moment. and turned to their old party
paper. as in the days when they were
members of that party.

1t will be seen by our local columns
that the long-talked OF purpose of pur-
chasing Montana horses for the cavalry
has at last been put into practice. 1t
now remains to be seen whether or not
these horses will answer the purpose.
That they have the endurance, we all
know but whether they will become
as docile as the States horses under the
trying circumstances surrounding mill
tary life remains to be seen. Those en-:
trusted with the purchase Of the Mon
tana horse are making every possible
concession in his behalf, and now it
behooves the horse-raiser to do bis part,
if he wishes to take advantage of this
market for large number of horses
twice year. AT this time the larger
horses of the bands have been put to
work in teams, and consequently it has
been difficult to find band with enough
large horses in it to fill the bill. We
will await with considerable interest
the results of this experiment.

Private information concerning Gen.
Sheridan is of the most discouraging
character. While the bulletins are a
true report of his daily condition, they
do not, Of course, tell the whole story,
and cannot show his exact condition as
it is known by those who have visited
Nonqnitt and obtained the facts from
his attendants. He has improved but
very little since his arrival there, and
although there has been no relapse OF
recurrence of his heart trouble for near
ly forty days, he does not seem to pick
up strength at all. Those familiar with
his condition would not be surprised at
any time to hear his death announced.
