With its Usual Fairness.

The Livingston Enterprise with its
usual fairness gives the following impar-
tial account of the base ball match in
this city about which 80 much has been
said /:
"The game was characterized by the
usual amount of stalwart kicking the
decisions of the umpire coming in for
the greater share. So far as we were
able to determine, his decisions were
rendered in a spirit of impartiaIity al
though an apparent unfamiliarity with
the rules of the game led to several
decisions that were unfavorable to the
Livingston team. The kicking was not
confined exclusively to the players, ths
Bozemanites complaining bitterly Of
their lack of nerve in failing to take
offers to bet made by the hackers Of the
Livingstons. The only persons who
viewed the situation complacently were
those who failed to get their money up
on the Livingston club prior tn the be-
ginning of the game"

How Labor is Protected.

If the ironmasters are forced to pay
large assessments in order to protect
American labor and prevent it from sink
ing to the level of the pauper labor of
Europe, they cannot make their usual
profits unless they save the expense of
this operation, and the easiest mode of
retrenchment is to cut down wages. No
doubt they regret the necessity OF re-
dncing the wages of the men in their
employ, but American labor must be
protected at any cost. If the saving
necessary to protect it against the pau
per labor of Europe cannot be effected by
reducing the wages of the men already
employed, arrangements will haye to
be made for importing Bohemians and
Poles to take the places of these men at
lower rates. The men who are dis
charged because they will not work cheap
enough may feel aggrieyed for the time,
but they must be made to understand
that the great point is to protect Ameri-
can labor, and that they ought to bear
with cheeriulness any privations that
may be necessary to enable their employ
ers to attain their object.

HOW STANDS MICHIGAN +?

In picking out the list of doubtful
states, the Republican papers invariably
omit all mention of Michigan. And
yet, Michigan is very doubtful from a
Republican standpoint, for this reason ::
In 1884 the popular vote stood as follows
in round Numbers. Blaine, 1872 600 .
Cleveland, $4,000; Butler, $4,000, and
St. Joln, 5000. Four years ago the
issue was not so sharply defined on tar
if reform, but this year that will be the
only issue, and the Republican platform
is not satisfactory to majority of voters
In the state, and in addition, Harrison y
nomination arousea no. enthusiasm, as
his position on the Chinese question and
other questions of importance has not
been satisfactory. But there are other
reasons besides the weakness of the
nominees and the platform that warrant
the belief that the state will go Demo-
cratic. Four years ago the Prohibition
vote was Is 600. This year 1t will reach
$4,000, and not 10 per cent of that vote
will be. drawn from the Democratic
party
For the reasons alb we stated, it is
more than probable that Michigan will
60 Democratic this year.

FT. ELLIS RESERVE.

reservation was soon to be thrown open

count of the action of Congress in the
matter and expect to hear very soon that
Mr.. Tooles actions have received the
sanction of congress. Eight hundred
fine ranches. inhabited by eight hundred
farmers and their families means a
whole lot for this city, inasmuch as the
reservation joins the corporate limits,

stead of producers, must be remembered
that it will take several years for those
who locate on these lands to be in posi-
tion to produce the results of scientific
husbandry and In the meanwhile other
avenues of trade will be opened which
will create a demand for every pound
of grain farmers can raise at the prices
now ruling.
The Bozeman weekly chronicle., 1888-07-11

The crop prospects, excepting as to
Winter wheat, continue generally en-
couraging in every respect save this :
the lateness of the season makes all
crops peculiarly liable to injury if the
weather for the next two months should
prove exceptionally hot or dry. But
Dunn's reports from nearly all points
show that. with favorable weather, an
excellent yield may be expected. As to
Winter wheat, however. the reports do
not warrant reduced estimates of the
loss, and on account of this shortage,
the weather in Spring-wheat regions
will now be watched with the greater
anxiety. Accounts from cattle-growing
regions are favorable. but low prices are
seriously felt by growers. The clip of
wool does not appear to have diminished
materially, but there is less readiness to
market than usual, because of general
belief that prices may improve after
Congress has adjourned.

Regarding the Train Robbers.

We see it stated in several papers that
Col. Dudley. of Custer. was reprimanded
for allowing troops to go in search of
the Northern Pacific train robbers.
This is not so. When the robbery oc-
cured Col. Dudley learned that the
robbers were near the post. He sent
out q small detachment to apprehend
them, and telegraphed the fact to Gen.
Ruger. who did not reply. When Sher.
if Harris asked that detachment be
again sent out, Gen. Ruger, in answer to
Col. Dudley's second telegram. replied
that there was no law sanctioning such
action. 1t is therefore reasonable to
suppose that Gen. Ruger did not wish to
take upon himself the responsibility of
sending out troops, but if Dudley had
done so. nothing would have been said
about it.
In this connection we learn that tn ,
Northern Pacific has its chief detective
at Custer, together with a number of
men. who have secured the country
without finding clue that would lead
to the arrest of one of the robbers. The
detective is sure that there were only
three in the party, and believes that
they will be caught.

REGARDING HARVEST.

Load after load of binding twine has
been received by onr dealers during the
week. Notwithstanding this, it is well
for our farmers tn see that they have
sufficient twine engaged with which to
bind their crop, and not be in the fix
they were in last year when harvest
came around. And right here it is well
to remind the farmer that it is economy
to purchase Manila twine. 1t runs
smoothly through the knotting devise Of
the binder, and it is stronger and more
durable. Native hemp is coming rap
idly to the front as binding twine that
is superior even TO Manila. and as soon
as it can be manufactured by machinery,
as the Manila is, it will take the place
of that kind, and thereby give an i'm
petus to the hemp industry, which can
be carried on in this country as well as
in Dakota, when our people come to the
realization of the fact that the farmer
must diversity his industries in order to
be continually successful.
During the week we have noticed sew.
eral farmers in town with their moving
machines, which, we presume, they are
having repaired, and, as having is about
to be commenced, We further presume
that the breaks in the machines were
not discovered nor thought of until they
were about to be used. 1t will be the
same with the harvester. When tie
grain is dead ripe the binder will be
be pulled from it's moorings in the field
and found 10 be in bad condition.
Then the man of the farm will be dis
patched to town, and great deal of
very valuable time will be lost in getting
the sold thing Hxed up. and perhaps a
new machine will have to be purchased.
The time to look at the harvester is
right now. Get it fixed. if it needs it.
and it shonld not, if it has been housed
right away, and when you need it, you
can cnt vour crop quickly, and without
loss of time. These are matters that de.
serve your attention,

Responding to sentiment at Great
Falls the other evening, Mr.. Paris Glib
son gave utterance to fact that we
somtimes lose sight of in Montana. He.
said substantially: "The resource that
survives the centuries, that is pre-
eminent in all selfsustaining lands, is
agriculture. sometimes think the ed.
itors of Montans, in their zeal to promote
the mining and stock growing industries
of the Territory and invite capital and

ties OF Montana ana let the tens of

Horseradlsh.


Every family garden should have Its
supply of horseradish. Too commonly
the plant is set in an out of the way
place, and left there year after year, to be
dug from as wanted. Thus treated it
becomes an unsightly nuisance, and q
weed difficult Of determination. The
proper way to grow horseradish is to
plant it every spring, and to allow it to
remain in the soil but q single season.
Instead OF setting in poor soil it should
have rich one. The market gardeners
plant it to succeed their early cabbages,
and to occupy the land when that crop is
off. In preparing horseradish for mar
ket, the small side roots that are cut
away are saved to be used as "sets" for
planting. These sets are cut about six
inches long, and to make sure that they
shall be planted right side up, they are
cut square across at tire top, while the
bottom end is cut slanting. These sets,
when prepared in the fall, are made into
bundles of fifty or one hundred, and pre-.
served through the winter In trenches,
the same as other roots. They are usual
ly on sale at the seed-stores in spring,

Anderson Gags the House.

Taking advantage of the rules of the
House and the liberality of the speaker,
Representative Anderson, of Kansas,
was enabled to prevent the passage or
even the consideration of the bill to re-
fund the debt of the Union Pacific rail-
road to the government. Monday was
what is known as individual suspension
day." when the speaker has the right to
recognize any member on the floor, to
suspend the rules and pass any particu-
lar measure. 1t was well known that
the speaker, after conference with the
president, who is very much interested
in securing settlement of the Union
Pacific Indebtedness by the passage Of
this bill, had agreed to recognize Mr..
Outhwaite, the chairman of the COM
mittee On Pacific railroads, and that Mr..
Cultivate would move to suspend the
rules and pass the bill. But Mr.. Ander-
did not permit the motion to be made
during the time allowed for the intro
duction OF new bills, and offered at the
clerk 3 desk the codification OF the laws
of the District of Columbia, which
makes a volume of six or seven hundred
pages, in lieu of bill, and then called
for the reading of the same. The clerk
stood at his desk and read in a low tone
for two or three hours, when some one
seeing that nothing would be accom-.
plished during the afternoon, proposed
to take recess until 5 O'Clock, the time
when the House, under its present rules
adjourns each afternoon. Mr.. Anderson
secured at the document-room all of the
long bills that he could get his hands or
and had prepared them for introdu ctior
and reading, simply to kill time.
This finishes the Union Pacific fund.
