THAT LAND OF'fICE.

The River Press contains the following
editorial which throws much Light on
the laud office question:
During the meeting of the Legislative
assembly of the state, last winter, the
Hon. j. M. Boardman of Choteau county
drew up a petition praying congress TO
provide for the establishment OF II land
office at Fort Benton. The petition was
accompanied by statistics obtained from
the office of the surveyor general show
ing the number Of acres of surveyed and
unsurveyed lands IN the proposed new
land district, and other data to evidence
the necessity of establishing such land
district and office. The petition was
signed by every state senator including
Senator Armington of Cascade county,
and by every member OF the body nt
which Mr.. Buardman was IL member, in
GLIDING Messrs. Hastie and Lochray of
Cascade county. The petition was sent
to Representative Carter for his guidance
in the matter, the receipt of which was
acknowledged by him. ,
With this petition in his possession,and
with the facts embodied in it before him,
| sustained by the signatures of every man
who voted for Sanders and Power, Rep
resentative Carter has thus fur refused or
neglected to introduce a bill in the body
of which he is II member, Incorporating
the PRAYER of the petitioners. 1t is I'M
derstood that his principal reasons for his
non-performance of duty thus as plainly
imposed upon him is that Great Falls
wants the land Office at that city, and that
as long as its location at Fort Benton is
~antoganized 10y the up-river candidate he
will not move in the matter. This may
or may not be Mr.. Carter's reasons for
his inactivity in the premises. If so, the
simple fact that the representatives of
the county of which Great Falls is the seat
of justice, joined in the petition praying
for the location of a land office at Fort
Benton shows that his reason is not well
founded. He certainly should pay some
Difference to the wishes of Cascades rep
resentatives as expressed in the petition
referred to.
We believe that Mr.. Carter is simply
playing one town against the other In
this matter. Benton can speak for her
self, but we are convinced that from the
moment Mr.. Carter brought in a bill tc
give land offices to Missoula and Lewis
town he did not intend to ask for one III
Great Falls or Benton, with any expecta
ton of securing it. The situation is one
in which Benton and Great Falls might
properly unite In rebuking Mr.. Carter
for either place was better entitled to {
land office than Lewistown. In saying
so we mean no ill will to L~ewistown, be
cause we believe that our own or Ben
toms claim was better than hat of any
other place.
But by what soft talk were Messrs
Arlington, HASTE and Lochray induced
to sign a petition for Benton? They die
not represent public sentiment in Cas-
cade county when they thus weakened
our claim for the land Office.

THE capture OF Eyraud may be follow
ed by q sensational trial. The story &C
cepted as true, thus far, is that Gouffe
and Eyraud were both at the home of a
Paris courtesan named Gabrielle. At the
instance of this young woman, Eyraud
placed a rope around Goutfe's neck and
deliberately strangled him. They put
the body into a trunk and fed from Paris
with it. They soon parted company.
Gabrielle was caught by the police. Ely
raud after battling the detectives has been
capt. red in Havana. He now denies that
he had any hand in the murder but adj
mits that he helped Gabrielle put the
body IN the trunk and carry it away. He
promises to make further revelations in
Paris. The presumption is still strong
that he and Gabrielle murdered Gouffe
for his money.

GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. JUNE 7, 1880.
TIL SILVER BILLS.

In our Geographic report of the re-
publican silver caucus-a piece of news
in which we were in advance of the
Helena papers-there are signs that the
republicans are considerably divided on
the silver question. The leaders began
by calling a conference" instead Of a
caucus so that the party might not be
bound by the result. This scheme ans
wered its purpose for at the close the
members declared themselves in doubt
as to whether they we're bound by the
decision Of the assemblage. Congress
man Buchanan proposed squarely that
the caucus bill be re-endorsed, but that
did not SUIT Walker of Mass,
and Dorsey of Nebraska, who each had
plans of their own. Finally Mckinley
proposed as a compromise that the treas
ury shall purchase $4,5OO,0OO worth of
silver each month and issue certificates
(Which shall be full legal tender) in pay
ment therefor. This plan wa upheld by
Speaker Reed and was adopted. In the
absence of further details it looks like an
abandonment of the silver bill, which re-
CURED the treasury to issue certificates
for all silver bullion that may be offered
That provision was deemed of the first
importance by the friends of silver and
was expected to expand the currency
judiciuusly. McKinley's scheme seems
to be no improvement on the Bland bill,
now in force, except that it makes com
pulsory the purchase of silver to the
amount Of $4,5O0,OO0 per month which
would be more than double what the
treasury now BUYS.
This compromise is probably intended
to meet the views of President Harrison
who is openly opposed to free coinage or
to any bill which might receive more
democratic than republican votes. He is
more concerned about party capital than
he is for the silver interests. The demo-
Gratis are acting differently. They are
willing to uphold any good bill and to let
the republicans take full credit for it.

In adding John N. Abbott to his staff
President Hill has secured a railroad
man of ability and experience who began
%railroading with the New York Il Erie
IN 1861 and attained the position of gen
eral passenger agent. In 1867 he became
commissioner of the Southwestern pas
senger association and in 1887 he was
elected chairman of the Western passen
ger association which was recently dis
solved. The Great Northern has now
become the best training school for rail
road managers. 1t was from it that
Messrs. Marvel and Egan were appointed
to positions of the highest rank in the
railroad world.

CHICAGO is to have at last a permanen,
university. The Baptists have subscrib'
ed over 100000 to secure the gift OF
100000 which John D. Rockefeller OF
the Standard Oil Co. offered. Marshall
Field has given 20 acres of land for Il
site and Hebrew citizens have contribut-
ed $4,000. 1t is supposed that Mr.
Rockefeller will endow the university
with $4,000 0 more. The institution is
to be conducted on a liberal basis and to
those who cannot afford to pay, i~nstruc-
ton will be practically free. This uni
versity ought to be the pride of the great
west.

THE EXCURSION

The commercial excursion, of which We
give details today, will be one of the
leading events of the business year in
Montana.
The Great Northern railway company
has been preparing some time for this
excursion which it will conduct with
princely hospitality. 1t has invited fifty
representative business men from st,
Paul and Minneapolis, thereby insuring
that every leading interest will be repre-
sented in the party. These capitalists
and merchants are all well qualified to
discern the varied resources of Great Falls
and to estimate them at their true value.
They have taken a leading part in build
ing up two great cities and in establishing
there factories and jobbing houses of
great extent. They have extended their
business relations over a large area and
have done much to develop the immense
of Minnesota and Winconsin.
Their enterprise has been felt also in the
Dakotas and Montana which are all close
ly allied commercially with the twin cities.
The visitors will therefore come as
friends and co-workers. They will have
words of cheers for the founders of
Great Falls and for all who are concern
ed IN its prosperity. They will naturally
strive to draw closer the relations between
Montana and Minnesota, but they will
only expect to do business on a sound,
reciprocal basis. Our fellow citizens
should prepare at once to welcome them
and to render the visit agreeable to the
travellers as well as beneficial to Great
Falls and all North Montana.

IMPROVEMENTS are SO common at and
around Great Falls that the opening of
the Sun river bridge has almost passed
unnoticed. That bridge links Great Falls
with an important region and prvides a
highway between two large portions of
the county which would otherwise have
to depend on the old time ferry boat. We
believe all such Improvements are a good
investment.

CONGRESSMAN MCKINLEY speaks
d%oubtfully of the federal election bill and
of the bill to regulate the apportionment
Of congressional districts. Perhaps he
feels that congress has enough misdeeds
to answer for this session. There is a
remnant of republicans who have some
regard for state rights, that would oppose
the proposed scheme to put COMPRESSION
al elections under federal control.

PHILADELPHIA is a great industrial city
She more wool than any other
place in the United States. 1t is natural
therefore that her business men and man
u%facturers should protest against the Nc.
kinley bill, which, in providing protec,
ton in a clumsy, selfish form, violates
the reflective policy as %expounded by
Henry G. Carey and others. This meet
Ing is timely since it is clear that the re.
publican majority in the senate are dis
posed, because of party exigencies, to pass
the bill, almost u~namended.

MONTANA continues to maintain her

she incurred by the doings of the "Gran-
lite" house.

Helena may have to build the Townsend

Dyspe psia

dyspepsia
Makes the lives Of many people miserable,
and often leads to self-destructlon. Distress
after eating, sour stomach, sick headache,
heartburn, loss of appetite, a faint, "all gone"
feeling, bad taste, coated tongue, and irregu-
n,.A larity Of the bowels, are
OSStEeS9 some of the more common
After symptoms. Dyspepsia does
Eo%,.~ not get well Of itself. It
.0'6 requires careful, persistent
attention, and q remedy like Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which acts gently, yet surely and
efficiently. 1t tones the stomach and other
organs, regulates the digestion, creates a
good appetite, and by thus e,oL
overcoming the local symp- S.~
toms removes the sympa- 0eaoacne
thetic effects Of the disease, banishes the
headache, and refreshes the tired mind.
"Ihave been troubled with dyspepsia. I
had but little appetite, and what I did eat
Aaor+. distressed me, or did me
~ little good. In an hour
OuFn after eating I would expe-
Renee a faintness, or tired, all-gone feeling,
as though ! had not eaten anything. Ny trou-
