THE RANGE DISAPPEARING.

w, j. Wilson, of Colorado, says: at
will surprise the public to hear this, butt il
is true that there are o more than 10 per
cent. as many cattle in Colorado this
year as there were six years ago. There
never will be as many in the future as
there have been in the past there. We
haven't the range for them. Farmers
have taken Il great deal of the watered
land formerly used for range, leaving
most of the range o. today not only not
watered, but of such character as canno
be irrigated. Most of the desirable spot
in Eastern or Southern Colorado where
ranch cattle used to do hest have beef
fenced in, and if there is an enemy t.
| the cattle business it is barb wire fences
Out of more than fifty ranchmen wit
used to market from 5000 to 10000 cattl'
annually each there are today not more
than half a dozen large cattle holders II
the state"
How long will it be until the same may
be said of Montana! The decadence ii
the range cattle business the past three o,
four years indicates that the day is no
far distant.

THE Il BILL.

In the debate in the senate on Monday,
Senator German administered fitting re-
buke to the senatorial granny and hide
bound partizan from Massachusetts,
Hoar, who insists that the election bill
must displace financial legislation for
the relief of the country and all other
measures, no matter how urgent. Sena-
tor German said: "We stand today on a
volcano. We have heard Il discussion as
to starving Indians, but take nc note Of
the fact that the farmers of the land are
meeting and resolving that there is dan
ger and trouble, if not starvation among
them. The faces of bankers and mer-
chants are blanched with fear. No man
can tell whether, tomorrow or next
day, every bank in the great centers of
commerce will not be closed by the sus-
pension of payment, and now, in the
midst of such q state Of affairs, we, who
come here flushed with victory, had hope
that the majority party would give US the
opportunit, to join with it in preventing
the wreck which is now impending. Lay
aside this bill which the country has pro-
nounced against, and let us take up mat
tiers which all classes of our fellow citi-
zens are looking to us to consider. If
you do not, if you persist in the course
marked out by the senator from Massa-
chusetts, the responsibility must rest with
the party in power. If the senator from
Massachusetts forces the consideration
of this partisan measure, while bankrupt
cy and ruin are going on, when he goes
back TO Boston he will find that mer-
chants and bankers and men of affairs, as
we'll as farmers and laborers, will tell
him that while he is attempting hostile
legislation against a section of the coun-
try, that if it had not been for the pro-
ducts of that section, If it had not been
for the moving of the cotton crop, there
would not be a bank in Massachusetts
able to pay its depositors. The
only thing that has saved them ha:
been the fact that they have beer
able to draw on the cotton crop

A CORRESPONDENT askes the Pioneer
Press how a man wishing to run for a
country office should work to get the
nomination. The answer, which may be
Il pointer to some of our ambitious readers
was: "You nust get out the hustlers and
get out yourself and carry the primaries;
then you must watch you delegates in
the county convention, and if you have
not enough to carry you through DO a lit
tie trading by selling out any or all the
other candidates to secure your nomina-
ton. That's the common way. The bet
ter plan Is to sit down and wait till your
fellow citizens by common consent drag
you out of your retirement and compel
you to accept the nomination whether or
no. You will be somewhat older when
this occurs, but the satisfaction will par
uaily compensate you for the delay.

pressed with this city. In the North
western Financier for November he pub
fishes the following article in which some
of the of this city and section
are faithfully portrayed. Even our W
people who are perhaps familiar with
every figure and detail can read it with
interest:
This promising young city is located on
the Great Northern railway LOCO miles
from St. Paul, and 81 northeast from
Helena. The city is most beautifully
located in a bend of the Missouri river
about $50 miles below Its source.
The sun river enters the Missouri here.
No more favorable location for a city
could be found. Here is + found the
wonderful series of falls, discovered and
named by the famous Lewis and Clarke
expedition IS years ago:
Black Eagle Falls, height. "a feet
Cotton Falls, height. ......... IL feet
Rainbow Falls, height. ........ .4S feet
Crooked Falls, height. ........... feet
Lower Falls, height. ........... so feet
Total tall from head of rapids to foot
of lower falls 512 feet, all within a dis
lance of about eighty miles.

GOV. THAYER, of Nebraska, reports that
there are 10000 families in that state that
are suffering for lack of provisions owing
to crop failure. The G governor discourages
outside appeals and thinks the legislature
will make provisions for the relief of
citizens. There are twelve counties that
are needing aid; wheat did not yield over
one, two or three bushels per acre. The
stock has been mostly disposed of. The
commissioner appointed by the governor
says that the destltution is greater than
that caused by the Johnstown flood or the
Chicago fire. Practically the same story
from Canadian county, Oklahoma.
