Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

A Northern Pacific official" The
Montana Central is for Great Falls first,
last and all the time. 1t owns the townsite;
it owns the water works, and everything
it can do for Great Falls at the expense
Of Helena you bet it's going to do e.
Helena Independent.
This Is slightly incorrect. The Mon
tana Central does not own the townsite
nor the water works, by which, we sup
pose, is meant the water-power. Neither
has the Montana Central shown any dis
position to injure Helena. On the con
trary it has aided in reducing freight
rates to that city from the $3.50 per ton
which the Northern Pacific levied 1t is
amusing to find the Northern Pacific pos
ing as friend of Helena. That friend
ship was shown in collecting extortionate
rates and in attempting to grab the mineral
lands around the city. The Helena edi
tors should read the speeches made by
Helena men at the railroad celebration
last fall.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17
WANTS 4 NEW NAME.

Our esteemed contemporary, the New
York Sun, says:
Another territory also has an appella-
ton which ought to be changed, and this
is the territory known as Montana. 1t is
nothing but wretched Latin adjective,
meaning simply mountainous" and
why any body of intelligent gentlemen
like the members Of congress, who have
enjoyed the advantages Of common
school education, should damage a val
liable part of North America by encum-
bering it with title so insignificant and
poverty stricken, is question beyond
conjecture. Will some intelligent scholar
Of that territory report an Indian name
which sounds well and means something,
SO that by means thereof an effort may
be made to right this wrong?
We assure the New York luminary
that the people Of Montana are quite
content with that name and are not de-
sirous to change it, even when We join
the galaxy. We trace the name not to a
"wretched Latin Adjective but to the
Spanish noun "montana," which in that
language has liquid "n" that has not
been retained in our use of the word.
Our territorial motto, "Oro y Plata y
gold and silver ~. comes also from the
Spanish. We agree with the Sun that we
deserve name that would be sonorous
and expressive, but it is too late now to
adopt one, and least Of all an Indian one.
Our present name is not so bad, after all.
Mountains are justly associated with
freedom, loftiness and adventure. From
a material point Of view they are con-
nected with mineral wealth, with streams
of pure water and security from tornados.
We doubt that we have been damaged !"
very much by our present title. No name
could retard the progress Of a territory
whose mountain peaks pierce the skies,
whose mines are inexhaustible, and whose
area is so broad as to afford nearly two
acres each for every inhabitant of the
United States.

PROMPT attention GIVEN mail ORDERS.

The Burlington strike, which began
February ~, continues in full vigor.
The effort to bring the Wabash road in
to the conflict has failed. That road has
rescinded its order against Burlington
freight and has thus given no room for
judicial interference. The Burlington
persists in asking that the court issue an
order restraining Chief Arthur and the
Brotherhood from ordering or causing a
strike on the Wabash or any other road in
consequence of the action of these roads
in hauling Burlington freight but Judge
Gresham has intimated that he will not
90 so far as that.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

In her financial policy England follows
that of the United States Mr.. Goschen's
plan resembles very closely the operation
by which the bulk of our indebtedness
was funded into per cent bonds. The
British chancellor proposes to consolidate
the whole debt and reduce the interest
from to "a per cent, descending after
Is years to ~ per cent. This measure
will reduce the public burden but will
press heavily on those who derive scanty
livelihood from investments in consols.
They had better sell out and invest in
Montana property.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

Mr.. Randall's tariff bill retains the
duties on wool, except that it admits
carpet woods at 3 cents per pound. 1t is
evidently serious, carefully compiled
measure. Its introduction increases the
likelihood that no tariff bill will be adopted
by the present congress. A republican
and democratic alliance might be strong
enough to pass the Randall bill, but the
disposition is strong enough Oh both
sides to let the question at issue be de.
cided once for all by the country.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

The senate seems disposed to do some
thing practical in regard to coast defenses.
The committee thereon has taken the
first step by resolving to report favorably
Senator Dolph's bill to appropriate $685.
100000 for Notifications, guns, floating
batteries and torpedo boats. This amount
is to be expended within the next thir-
teen years. The proposed expenditure
will not be hurdensome to the country
for all the money will remain in the
defenses are needed to give the country
sense of security
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

1t looks like progress in England when
1853 members of the house Of commons
support Mr.. Labouchere in denouncing
hereditary peerage. 1t is true that 1913
voted against him, but there was time
when the proposal would have been re-
garded as little short of treason.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

Mention in these columns Of the en-
couragement which the territory holds
forth to wool manufacturers has set Hell
ena on the alert. That is right. There
is ample field for dozen wool factories
in Montana.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

What contrast between Great Falls
and New York on Monday! Here the
air was mild and the snow had disap-
peared. There the snow was foot deep
and in consequence traffic was suspended
and no steamers could leave the port.
Give us Montana all the time.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-03-17

means immense railroad traffic and affords
good reason for fair play to Great Falls.
That is all we ask.

Identification OF criminals when In general use by

OF how TO deal with the criminal class
must ere long be met by the application OF
more potent remedies than are now applied, In
order that the cause OF moral deformlties may be

the attention OF thinking men. Among these are
the inadequacy OF the penal law and the uncer-
