Benton River Press, July 81, 1885, X
While he Maginnis1 was ever ready
to defend, + much of his work
was done in the departments y X
1t is in this that Delegate Toole made his
great mistake, 4 he labored
for the spoils Of office with diligence and
got a due share for his friends-but,
meantime the postoftice department
slashed right and left into the mail SER
vice of Montana and the voice of our
delegate was not heard protesting against
it.
JERRY MAKES AN UGLY FACE AT
JOE.
Benton River Press, July %, 1886:-The
territorial delegates appeared before the
committee of conference OH the bill pro-
hibiting special legislation in the terri
tories, Saturday. Delegate Toole does
not appear to have been present.
JERRY KICKS JOE IN THE FACE.
Benton River Press, Aug. "a, 1886:-If
the River Press has found fault with
Delegate Toole it is because he has been
persistently negligent of the interests of
northern Montana and has done absolutely
nothing on the frontier, which has natural
ly more interests at stake at Washington
than any other portion Of the territory.
From party standpoint, he has virtually
ignored the wishes of the leading and
working democrats of Choteau county
and but few Of them would now ask even
the smallest favor Of him. If the course
Of the River Press in this matter will aid
in the smallest way in defeating the re-
nomination of Delegate Toole it will have
done more for the democratic party Of
Montana than all the so-called democratic
Orrans mt together

NORTON.

April 16.-Don't go west, when there
is 1000 acres of the best farming land
for sale here. The land is rolling. hut
the hills are not as high as in other
parts of the state. The soil is dark
loan, and good for raising hay, oats.
potatoes and wheat. Being close to
the Summit range we don't get the
early frosts. SO prevalent in other parts
of the State where the land is lower.
Five miles of railroad, the &. T. r.,
runs through the center of the town.
and there are % miles of highway roads
laid out, Is of which is in excellent
repair for travel. We have two saw
mills, one owned by A, NJ. Stetson of
Boston, which will cut this year bout
ten million feet of spruce and hard
wood. and the other owned by r. NJ.
Woodland, which will cut about four
million feet of spruce. Already some
5 600 acres of land have been sold to
farmers, who have settled thereon
with their families. The town has
four school houses, attended by $50
scholars. 1t was organized in 1885, at
which time there were % voters, now
there are rs. There are two churches,
one in Norton, and one over an imGgis
nGTy Line, which divides Vermont and
Canada, Line that we don't consider
necessary for the benefit of the people,
We have no custom house, neither
doctors nor lawyers, and no resident
of the town ever committed q crime
that would cause an appearance be-
fore the county court. What other
town in the county or state can say
the same! The opening up of this
town was delayed by the Norton Mill
Co., who owned the town for period
Of ten years, and during that time
would not sell an acre of land. This
company ran large saw mill aud
kept a corporation store, which was a
curse to the place. The floating pop
ulation made good wages. but the
man with II family had TO take almost
all OF bis earnings ont OF the store,
and as a result, men with families left
and located in other towns. All this
is happily done away with now. Al
present both mills pay their help
monthly, and don't keep corporation
stores, SO that when farmer has
produce to sell the men have money
to pay for it. This town is surveyed
off in lots Of no acres each, but man
can buy 0ne=quarter, onezaalf or an
entire lot, or any nImber of acres he
requires, aud what is better he can
commence on farm in this town
without q dollar in his pocket, He
can work a part of his time at the
mills, and part on his farm, and in
short time he will have good COM
Portable home in the most independs
ent state of the Unitel States. Come
to Norton; hearty welcome awaits
all

Says an exchanges: improvements,
like charity, should begin at home. 1t
is time that Vermonters paid more at
tention to developing the resources
and increasing he wealth of their own
state. How much capital has been Ii
velted from home use to aid in build
ing western railroads and booming
western settlements into growing
towns, 1t is difficult 10 estimate. Has
there not been too much of that kind
of businoss-to the neglect of oppor
tunities right at oar own doors?
