The New Sheriff.
Sheriff w. Moses West, elected last
August, was sworn in yesterday for
term of two years. lie is the first
Democratic sheriff the county has
had for many years His deputies
are Matt S. Major and Lucien O..
Cravens. The latter has had consid-
cradle experience under Sheriff Boyd,
aud iS 3 good and capable officer. Mr..
Major is also good selection and
will no doubt give general satisfac-

a most acceptable public officer.
viii Remain With Us.
II has been announced that Prof.
NJ. l.. Lipscomb would leave in few

take the chair of Ply sizes in the State
University-a lucrative position. We
are pleased to make the announce
ment now that he has been prevailed
upon to reconsider the step and de-
cided to remain in our midst. This
bit OF information will no doubt be
gratifying to his numerous friends
who would regret very much TO
know that he proposed making his
home elsewhere.
Amusements.
The Frank Burt Company appeared
at the Opera House last night in
"Just in Time" on very short notice,
owing to failure of the bills to ar

especially good. This evening the
same company will present the play
"Saved," another piece equally as
good. Don't fail to attend.

its contents, belonging to Mr.. Tom

At the r. B. Harrison BANG quet rendered
by the prominent people Of Helena, in
reply to toast on the political situation,
General Charles Warren mapped it out
and said no Helenaites need apply for
his endorsement His latest idea is to
remove the capital to Great Falls. We
have always had the highest respect for
General Warren ever since we knew him.
as the able and distinguished presiding
officer in the police court of Butte. His
friendship for Great Falls was shown
little over year ago, when he came over
to the capita! and worked with all his
might for the establishment of the new
county of Cascade. We believe that
Gen. Warren is Oh the right track when
he proposes to move the capital to Great
Falls, although our extreme modesty has
prevented us from saying SO before. The
little town in the gulch of Last Chance is
no place for the capital of Il great Terri
tory like Montana. Great Falls has al
ready made enormous strides in popula-
ton. In two years from now it will bs
the best city in the Northwest, second
only to the great mining town Of Butte.
1t is nearer the geographical centre of
Montana than Helena. The great north
ern reservation above us is being settled
up with large population, and in II few
months Great Falls will be in the centre
of population Of the Territory. 1t is easy
of access from the great city Of Butte.
The connection between the two places is
hindered only by the stop ut the way
station of Helena, which in short time
will probably be done away with. We
say, let the capital come to Great Falls.

THE WATER WORKS.

The breaking of ground for the con-
struction of water works at Great Falls
will be all occasion for universal rejoic-
ing among our citizens. The beneficent
results certain to flow to us from their
establishment cannot be estimated in
dollars and cents. Upon well-regulated
and abundant supply Of water rests not
only the comfort, happiness and security,
but also the material prosperity, in no
small degree, of every municipality
throughout the civilized world. Water
is wanted for the house aud home, the
hotel, the Office, the shop, the laboratory,
the church, the school aud the public
hall; water for the railway coach and the
locomotive; water for motive power in
the various departments of industry and
mechanic arts; water for the streets and
the lawns, for the parks aud drives and
for the waving lines Of grateful shade.
trees. Water is the element of our in-
PRODUCTION to mortal life; and the last
request, when the spirit is struggling for
release from the worn out tenement. Is for
little water to cool the dry and parch-
ing lips.
Death and taxes are not more certain
than water is essential to tho well-being
Of civilized man. With a asupply of water
we can make our city like the garden of
Eden. We can adorn our grounds
and gardens with shade, ornamental and
evergreen trees. We can have our side
walks lined and shaded with delightful
foliage. We can develop system Of
shaded parks and drives here at the most
lovely spot on the Missouri river, not in
ferior to any on the continent. The ele-
giant parks and drives along the rivers
edge already plated and partially lined
with trees can be made gem of beauty
and a Joy to the residents Of Great Falls
in all time to come.
But in no one respect, We think, will
the water-works become of more inestim.
able value than in the security they will
give against disastrous contiagrations,
Recent successive fires and the destruc-
ton of property of great value to private
individuals as well Us of ornament to the
city, have served to intensity aud crystal.
lie the pressing aud imperative needs of
an ample and always available water
supply, whatever might he the cost or
labor necessary to accomplish it.
Another and not less vital consideration
for the time being is the immediate
benefit to be derived from the work of
construction, in furnishing employment
for many men now seeking it. This will
give an impetus to every artery of trade
and put large amount Of money into cir
cnlation. In fact the ways in which to the
city and its inhabitants will come ad-
vancement and prestige through this
great enterprise are us vital and far
reached US they are absolutely beyond
all computation.
