The Freedom or The City Is ours When In
Washington.
WASHINGTON, March 7.-[Special
to the Herald. Considering the diff
ficulties usually attendant upon gain
ing admission to the White House and
departments. for the first few days
after q new administration takes hold.
Montanians In the City have been
more than fortunate. and their contin-
ued concession of f~isttering attentions
has become the envy of the more nu-
merous but less favored delegations
from other States. This is due to the
exceptional cleverness Of Russell b.
Harrison, who, despite the many de-
mands on Ills time, has uniformly
shown q preference for Montana peo-
pie In dispensing such oourtesles rs
only a Presidents son has IL In his
power to bestow.
To-day ten Montana men met at
the White House by invitation, and
after spending q few moments there
departed on q visit TO all the cabinet
officers. Russell Harrison headed
the delegation and his name secured
instant admission at each department.
The gang" were personally intro
duced to each member of the new
ministry excepting Blaine, who was
visited yesterday, and ell Of the die
tinguished officers had pleasant words
for Montana and her people.
Postmaster General Wanamaker
took occasion to say that he hoped TO
improve the mail service OF the West
especially, as well as better that OF
the whole country, and also intimated
that penny postage would be one OF
the achievements OF Harrison's adj
ministration. Wanamaker looks every
inch q business man and his known
abilities promise a vigorous admins
tration Of his important Office.
Noble, Of the Interior Department,
is q broad-gsuge Western man, and
Montana people can rest assured that
Sparks policy has been consigned 10
'%inocuous desuetude" forever.
Those who called were Russell b.
Harrison, T. H. Carter. Il. l.. Bonner
Joseph Scott, f. A. H. Hay, DIR.
Grant, j. u. Sanders. Thos. A. Cum
mings, j. b. Walker. VIM. Johns
and Judge Cary. The latter Is dele
gate from Wyoming and Is sanguine
OF his Territory's admission under the
present administration.
NO appointments Whatever were
made to-day, but several nomination,
are expected 10 be sent 10 the Senate
tomorrow. The Montana vacancie,
will be among those receiving ths
early attention Of the President. ant
other appointments for the Territory
may be looked for 500 after.

translated, are highly interesting. He
seems a little given 10 the marvellous,
but commentators accept him as accurate
whenever referring to anything based on
personal observation. His episodes are
skillfully interviewer, one entertainingly
leading to another, with the language
simple and to the point. So this OBJ
serving old traveller tells of "A curious
relationship between the little bird called
trochilus-or, by the ornithological card,
Hyas @gyptiacus-and the crocodile.
Alter mentioning that all other beasts
and birds avoid the saurian monster,
Horodotus says:
When the crocodile issues from the
water and opens his mouth, which he does
most commonly toward the sunset. the
trochilus enters his mouth and swallows
the leeches which cling to his teeth. The
huge beast is SO pleased that he never in
jures the little bird.

deep red in color and a foot long. In
