Family Government.

With so many examples on the one
hand. which warn parents against
overindulgence, and on the other en-
courage them in using all needed dis
cipline, it is strange that they do not
see and learn to avoid all disputes and
discussions with reference to family
government in the presence of their
children. They not only lose the re-
spect of those who should naturally
look to them for help and guidance,
but, still worse. they do incalculable
injury to those whom they should love
and protect when, forgetting their
children's best interests, and their
solemn duty, they dispute and recrimi-
nate whenever a case of discipline is
unavoidable, and dare to do so
where their children and serv-
ants can hear and see the
whole shameful wrangle. 1t will not
take many specimens of divided conn
sells to complete the mischief begun
by the first example. Children are
quick Observers, and arrive at singu-
larry correct conclusions. They soon
learn which parent is the most ready
TO conceal their faults and overlook
their shortcomings. and soon learn to
turn to that one for help to escape
punishment. or to secure the gratifca-
ton Of a within which the other has
forbidden. And it is very sad to see
how quickly they learn to care little
for either parent and that love which
is only given when their own demands
are satisfi I'd is purely selfish. and oflit-
tie value. Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher.

The loss by abrasion of silver and gold,
annually, is a tremendous sum-, and
there is no sense in the waste; and these
large amounts of either metal are expen-
sive to transmit from point to point. But
the reserve of silver in the treasury is not
an element of the slightest tronble. 1t
happens to be just as good a reserve as
gold itself; it is the money of two-thirds
OF the world, the money of the constitu-
ton: the money that stood, after the mu-
tilation of thousands of years, at a pre-
MUM over gold, unit. by a trick of a for
mer comptroller of the currency, under a
specious disguise, its chief use was legis-
lated away from it. The crime has cost
the working and creating forces of this
nation already several hundred millions
of dollars. That loss should be stopped
and so far as possible restitution should
be made at once. 1t is a question between
the avarice of the money-loaning few and
the necessities of the working millions,
and there should be no hesitation about
the answer.

AN ARTERY OF STEEL.
Montana Rapidly Becoming the Richest
Section of the Union.

Judge Goodwin, the veteran editor of
the Salt Lake Tribune, pronounces an
eloquent eulogy on Montana in writing of
the group of states and territories which
are connected so closely in many ways
with Utah. Coming from a resident of
Utah this tribute cannot be attributed to
that self-pride to which all people are
liable when writing of their own terri
tory. He says:
Turning to material things. Montana
is swiftly becoming one of the richest re-
gions per capita in the union. Behind
her broad valleys and her mighty fiocks
and herds, her mines are among the rich
est and most prominent in the world.
Among states and territories she last year
rated first in gold and silver productions.
What will it be when a few years hence
the aggregate from field, herd and mine
is used to build homes and factories and
to extend the trade of the great state?
Within the year just closed a new artery
of commerce-an artery of steel-has
been stretched for hundreds of miles
through the territory, giving it a com
peting channel and opening a mighty
area to swift communication which before
was only travelled by the slow stage or
slower team. To this trade the territory
responds as does the blood horse to the
rein. And other roads are building and
many others will be built, for Montana
can give more miles of railroad support
according to her area than can any of the
states of the Mississippi valley.
Gas yet, her agricultural possibilities
are scarcely tried; her mining is but in
its infancy, and though last winter was
the most disastrous ever known to her
stockmen, she has this year sent away
10000 fatted beeves! Think of it! 1t
seems but yesterday since the story of
the Custer massacre on the Rosebud came
to us, and one of the thoughts that il
awakened was the infinite distance from
civilization the place was where those
brave men gave uptheir lives to the fierce
Sioux. Now that place is but FIVE days
ride from San Francisco, but two from
Portland, but five from the capital of the
nation, while where the furious savages
danced their war-dance of victory over
the death of the pale faces herds are
quietly grazing and the smoke from the
homes OF undisturhed settlers is the cloud
by day which beckoIs the stranger to
hospitable hearth-stones. No region is
more fullof PROMISE; no region presents
brighter hopes fer tbe immediate and the
far-of future. The territory should be
given statehood. It fills every require
ment, its people are loyal and intelligent,
its are abundant and so varied
that steady prosperity is certain.

TAG LINE ROUTES.
Lewistown Calls for a Daily Stage Line
to Great Falls.

to Great Falls.
Lewistown is destined to become an i'm
portant stage center. Instead of being a
way town it will be a terminal point for a
number of lines. At least such is the
outlook at present. When the Manitoba
road becomes thoroughly equipped and
begins to run through trains from Saint
Paul, on quick time, as it will in the
spring, it is going to command the bulk
of the business of Fergus county. With
lower express, freight and passenger
rates, and a shorter stage ride, the north
ern road will have an advantage over its
southern rival. The owners of stage lines
will be quick to see the advantage and in
ducements in a shorter route and will
govern themselves accordingly, and in all
probability the main stage line in north
ern Montana next summer will ply be-
tween Lewlstown and Great Falls.
1t is the Judith basin business that
makes it possible to maintain a daily stage
line from the south. Shift it to the north,
and a tri-weekly service would meet the
demands of the country lying between
the gap and Billings. Now that the Man
itoba is completed there will be but little
through stage travel north and south, and
We would not be surprised to see the
present line curtailed or abandoned the
coming spring.
LewistoWn should be the objective point
for all lines entering the basin, then pas
sengers could reach their destination,
going Or coming, without the present de-
lays and Inconvenience. We need direct
communication with Great Falls, Fort
Benton and Big Sandy on the
Manitoba. A daily line between Lewis
town and Great Falls is almost assured.
With such service we could reach the
Manitoba road in II hours, and Helena
in a day and night, while the travelling e
penses would be correspondingly less.
Great Falls should assist in the establish
ment of this line, as it will prove an inn
portant factor in building up a city now
SO ambitious and hopeful. -Leuistoun

NO IRRIGATION e
Senator Stanford Makes Some Timely
Remarks on This Subject.

Senator Stanford fakes Some Timely
Remarks on This Subject.
Great and many are the blunders which
have been made by early settlers in esti-
mating the fertility of the land. Sen
ator Stanford of California speaks on this
subject in a way which should put to
shame the "desert" land grabbers, if
they were capable of any sense of
shame where pecuniary gain is concerned.
Mr.. Stanford was asked if the alkaline
desert between Ogden and the Sierra
Nevadas could ever be made available for
agriculture or anything else. The sena-
tor, who shows the broad mind of the
intelligent Californian, replied al
thought it could not when we built the
railroad, but now | am not sure that the
whole of it will not at some day be green
and productive. We never knew when
we came here that we could grow wheat,
and for a long time obtained that commo-
dity from Chill, yet at the same time wild
grass was growing up to the saddles of
the horses as we rode along in California.
We finally began to grow wheat, but
thought it could not be done without irri-
cation; experience showed us that in very
many cases no irrigation at all was requir-
ed to make a crop. Twas a long time per
suading Brigham Young to grow some
wheat without going to the expense and
labor Of ditching and irrigating. He re-
luctantly tried the experiment, and found
it a complete success. The alkali of our
plains, | am assured, will one day come
into market as a fertilizer for the east and
the outside world. You know the forma-
ton of country beyond the Sierra New
adas for a great distance; it consists Of es-
tuaries of inland lakes, which receive the
drainage of those interior valleys. There
is a constant transfer being made of the
surface %barrenness to the bottom of the
earth. think it will take no longer to
make the plains bear than it took to make
the east grow grain and fruit. They had
to cut off the trees and get away the
stumps, and we have to deal with another
kind Of obstacle" It will be seen that
Mr.. Stanford is not carried away by the
irrigation craze, which has had its day.

COUNTRY.
A FUTURE RIVAL OF DAKOTA IN
WHEAT PRODUCTION.
The Bench Lands of Northern Montana
Unexcelled for Grain, Which
VIII Have Good Home
Markets.

1t is of the dltural capabilities OF
the country that l particularly wish te
speak. They are illimitable. 1t won't
take much of a prophet to name northern
Montana as the future rival of Dakota in
grain production en- this continent. And
you will be surprised to learn that this
will be without irrigation. No greater
mistake was ever made than that of think
ing that crops cannot be raised without
irrigation in this part of Montana. Per
haps so farms around Great Falls are
raising 90 to 55 bushels of wheat pei
acre, year after year, without a c drop of
moisture to perfect them other hal that
derived from the heavens above. The
yield of wheat and oats this veal is inn
mense. Stacks of wheat and oats on the
high, smooth bench lands are, consider
ing the smaller amount of land cultivated,
as thick as in the best wheat country in
Dakota, and the surprising thing is to
learn that in 1886, the dryest year ever
known in Montana, as well as in the east,
very fair crops were produced on these
non-lrrigated fields, and ne failures were
reported. Paris Gibson informs me
that on a field of volunteer spring wheat
two miles east of town the yield was DO
bushels per acre. A popularity of wheat
growing in this country is these big Yields
of volunteer wheat. With the land once
melloWed by cultivation, wheat is so nat
lIrat fn tho climate that If nornoffafoc II
self, year after year, from the grains scat
tered in harvesting. Even spring wheat
that m up in the fall does not winter
kill, and the ground can be sown in per-
feet safety anytime during October or
spring, the work is done in February or
March.
EARLY SEEDING COMMON.
This extreme earliness in seeding will
be a surprise to your Minnesota and Da-
kota readers, but they must remember
that this country is well within the great
heat belt derived from the Pacific ocean
and open weather is common to all the
winter months, while spring comes on in
March, so that farm work is possible
early.
The yields of wheat, oats and vegeta-
bles that farmers tell me they get
strongly tax my powers of belief, still I
know that they are actual facts. Twenty
bushels of wheat and so bushels Of
oats are considered light crops, while
from 90 to So of wheat, and from 70
to over a hundred Of oats are
considered reasonably satisfactory yields.
Turnips weighing 20 to 90 pounds each,
and potatoes 8 to 6 pounds, were grewn
all around here this year.
The mining camps surrounding this
valley give a market for everything that
is raised, and high prices are easily
secured. In the Great Falls market No.
| hard wheat is rs cents per busllel, oats
AZ cents, potatoes IS cents, onions are
S1,20 per bushel, and hay is $3.50 per
ton.

FROM GRASS TO GOLD
NOT BY NECROMANCY, BUT BY IN.
T~ELLIGENT LABOR.
An Easy Method of Transmitting Natures
Most Plentiful Products into
Yellow, Shining
Ore.

From the Saskatchewan south to the
Yellowstone, from the main range Of the
Rockies on the west to the eastern cor
fines of Montana, the ancient home of the
Blackfeet is the finest stock country in
the world.
In the central area are many small
ranges of mountains whose foothills grad
ually diminish until they are rolled out
the compact, curly buffalo grass and the
luxuriant bluejoint that is as nutritious as
grain. Interspersed everywhere are
sheltered valleys through which flow
large rivers and their tributaries, and the
table lands are further diversified by fold
like depressions, called %coulees, that often
contain living springs. These valleys and
coulees are commonly of such width and
depth that their sides have the character
istics Of foothills. In their angles and re
cesses cattle find adequate shelter from
severest storms and Craze contentedly the
while. Only a few years ago these graz
ing lands were covered with herds of buf-
faloes, and ON the grassy slopes were
bands of elk, deer and mountain sheep.
Now but little game is to be found. Its
haunts are occupied by the semi-wild
herds of cattle that here acquire thick
skins and shaggy hides that enable them,
like the bufaloes, to thrive and multiply
without the aid of man.
Although the thermometer sometimes
indicates 40 degrees below zero, that APP
palling absence of caloric is not long-con-
tinued nor detrimental to cattle running
at large because of the extreme dryness
of the atmosphere. On the contrary, it
possesses the advantage of improving the
quality of the beef.
WHAT MAKES GOOD BEEF
is the transition in temperature-that is,
juicy, savory meat cannot be grown in a
hot climate, or one possessing an equi-
BILE temperature. The superior price al
ways obtained for Montana beef in east
ern markets over that from regions to the
south illustrates the fact.
Montana winters are a revelation to
newcomers from the east, who are accus-
toned to seeing the grass decay and the
until May. The whole territory is more
or less under the influence Of the super
heated air brought to Americas north
west shores by the great Japan current
and known as the chinook wind. This
descends at frequent intervals upon the
eastern plateau of the Rocky mountains;
snow and ice disappear as if by magic
and periods of June-like balminess pre-
vail.
THE NATURAL GRASSES
of the country are the most nutritious
known, cured by the drying winds that
men to blow in August; they are
not frost killed as in the east, but retain
all their properties unimpaired in the
form of standing hay. This is the reason
for successful stockraising on the plains.
In no other part of the United States is
