The Fight About the Poles,

They must come down. The tele-
graph poles erected by the Western
Union Company were put up illegally,
and as the company won't come to
terms with the American District peo-
pie, down must come the poles. 1t
was expected that some amicable ar
rangement would be made, and the
Western Union people were to have
been represented at a council held last
night, but they did not keep their
promise. 1t is much ado about
nothing, however, as only three poles
are in dispute.

Gilman Rub voted calmly, with no
trace of excitement or his face, but
there was a CLEAN of determination
in his eyes that BODIED i'll for the first
deserter from his standard. His OPP
ponent, Councilman Merritt, was not
so calm, but equally determined, and
so the voting went on for five hours
without result. At six o'clock a recess
was taken, and at seven o'clock an
other ballot, with the usual result, vas
cast.
There seems to be no probability of
a compromise. Public Indignation is
being aroused. No bills have been
paid for weeks and business is stag
nant. The business men of the town
are speaking OF holding a mass meet
ing and sending an appeal to the
courts to try and compel the Board to
organize.
Weehawken's School Question.
The people of Weehawken are pre-
pairing for a a meeting to push for
ward action in regard to the new
schoolhouse which the town needs SO
badly.
Action in the matter seems to have
stagnated. For a week or so excite
ment was at fever heat. Everybody
talked school and by this time il their
earnestness had continued the build
ing would have been half finished.
But for some unexplained reason
interest tagged and the matter has
been allowed to fall into inhocuous
desuetude. Mayor Simon Kelly, of
Weehawken, said to me today:-"1
regret the delay, but there seems to be
no help for it just at present. | am do
ing all in my power to stir the people
up and am confident in a week or 10
of having a mass meeting called in the
Town Hall that will reanilnate the
people and boom the movement"

CHOTEAU COUNTY, NJ. r.
1HOTEAU COUNTY is in the northern portion
~ of the Territory. 1t is bounded on the north by
British possessions, the east by Dawson county,
OH the south by Lewis and Clarke Cascade and Fergus
counties, and the west by Missoula county, 1t has
an area of about 27,OOO square miles aid contains
l7,2SOOOO of land Choteau county is an empire
in itself, far and natural are con-
ccr,lcd. Probably better more definite idea NAV
be obtained Of its magnitude when it is known that is
larger than Vermont, New Hampshire and Mass,chu-
setts combined; that has equal to Maryland
New Jersey, Connecticut and Rhode 1slan and that
hold twelve just such states Delaware and then
have to spare. Again. allowing 100 for each
settler it supply homes for 1OSOOO families and.
counting five persons to each family, it will be that
old Chotcau has ample accommodations for $4,000
souls. ."".a".
The principal towns and settlements i'll the county are
Fort Benton, Choeau, Cypress, Dupuyer Yantic, Birch
Greek, Big Sandy, Shonkin, Upper and Lower High
wood, Arrow Greek, Bynum and Marias.
Several embryo cities are sprnging up the line Of
the Manitoba railroad and important will, in the
very future, be laid in the Sweet Grass hills
and the Little Rockies. The former, which take their
from peculiar grass found there, are about
50 miles little west Of north from Benton and are
composed Of three bues the east middle and west
covering of about 30 miles in length by IL
Is in width The latter, with the Bear Paw mountains,
constitute virtually range from 60 to IS miles in
length by from 70 to 25 miles in width and are situated
about 100 miles northeast of Benton. With these cx
cepons Choteau county IS one grand rolling prairie,
carpctcd with luxurious growth of nutritious grasses
and inerspersed with valleys of generous width through
which flow the waters of mountain streams that have
their in the countless springs fed by the eternal
of the distant ranges of mountains the west
and SOUTH
The principal streams that flow through and water
this vast extent of country with the number of miles of
each which lies wholly within the limits of Choteau
county, are follows: The Missouri, $50 miles; Milk
river, 300 miles; Marias 200 miles; Teton $50 miles,
and Sun river about IS miles, making grand total of
975 miles of main waterways. If to these added
the number of miles of tributary streams flowing into
the main courses from every point of the compass
the aggregate would enable to form idea of
the county's wealth of waters. 1t is certainly most
