MOntana's Delegation.

Under the aboye caption the Butte
Inter-Mountain thus takes the Mon
tana delegates to task:
Alas MagiDnis! Alas Toole! What
can have come over you TO make such
a record for yourselves as the press re-
port credits 10 the territorial represent
atlves in st. Louis. Willing to sbsn-
don "free grass" and free water" are
you If you can only get ''squatter's
rights" and keep out the cultured
Office seeker" Although we don't
know what you mean by "free water"
We can readily understand how easy
it would be for any democrat TO aban-
don it, though we believe IT is habit
with which few of your brethren are
afflicted. The "squatter sovereignty"
hardly applies to the rights OF the
hardy settlers of the territories. They
are not squatters. A sCuatter is q
trespasser. and although one Sparks
pronounced territorial Sc tiers tres
passers and even worse, We hardly ex-
peoted TO see him upheld by territorial
representatives, even though IL is neo-
cessary to endorse Sparks In endorsing
Cleveland. And you object TO the ad-
ministration inhicting upon the pio-
neers of the west cultured Office
seekers" do you? In reading this
solemn announcement In the dis
patches one can almost imagine he
sees Maginnis and Toole clad in brown
ducking, wearing broadl slouch hats.

ment in very bad but very forcible
English upon the "d-d tenderfeet"-
terrible picture! OF course nobody
who knows them will have any such
thought; but 1t is the picture that will
be presented to the eys Of the reader
who lives far away from the wild
west.m The uninformed associated
press reporter must have been reading
Bret Harte or Twain's "Roughing
It., The residents Of the territories
DO not object 10 these eastern office
seekers because they are "cultured,"
for we faucy we can make an exhibit
in the way OF culture that will rank
alongside of any section in the world;
it is because we want people in our
offices who know something about the
country, who are in sympathy with its
people and material interests, aud who
are not mere carpet-bsggers.

OF this flume. Having traced the
water TO this point, and opened the
waste gate arranged In the flume
through which about foot Of water is
allowed to flow into Squaw creek, the
inspecting party struck out fer Kings
bluff and dinner, which was discussed
with all the z,at born of morning In
the open air, and which reflected the
highest credit on the maltre de
cuisine. After dinner a majority OF
the party turned their faces homeward
but few who were anxious 10 see
more returned to the Squaw creek
flume, where, though absent but an
hour, the whole neighborhood was
found flooded and the ditch and flume
bank full, as was the creek also from
the overflow through the waste gates.
II being apparent that the immense
volume Of water that was pouring
over the hums at all points and settl-
ing the newly made earthwork in the
vicinity might cause come damage II
permitted TO flow, word was dis
patched to the dam TO shut off the
water entirely, and some hasty meas-
ures taken to relieve the pressure by
opening more escape in the creek. An
hour or more was then spent inSpa
trolling the line Of the ditch where il
was carrying water to ascertain how il
was acting and the survey being favor
able the party were soon homeward
bound, thoroughly impressed with the
conviction that the capabilities OF the
ditch to redeem all the land lying un'
der it in the Tongue river and Yellow,
stone valleys is beyond the peradven,
ture of a doubt.
The extensive work Of cribbing and
riprapp'ing at Kings bluff which has
heretofore been described, il now
nearly completed and the building OF
the flume at that point will be COM
menced in few days. The old fiume
which terminates al the beginning of
the bluff work is now under process OF
repair and will be ready to carry water
as soon Gs the flume at the blrf is
ready to receive 1t, which will be
within three weeks or a month at the
farthest; meanwhile different crews OF
workmen will be engaged in putting
all other points on the line OF the
ditch in perfect order SO that on o.
about the first Of July we can count
on the water being permanently
turned into the ditch in its entire
length and the work Of irrigation ma,
then begin. Stimulated by these I'm
mediate prospects Of water, the ranch
men along the line have made prepsr
afions for the cultivation OF their land
more extensively than ever before snC
barring the adverse interposition o
Providence an abundant harvest Il
guaranteed them.

Irrigation in India.

There are districts in India where the
fainfall is over 100 inches a year, and
yet not far of there are other districts
which suffer greatly for water. The
helds are irrigated in these by water
drawn from wells by oxen, lifting II in
great skin buckets. Fields 10 irrigated

ever saw, while just over the irr.gating
ditch there are thousands Of acrcs of

The discharge Of tears from the lachry-
