Home Protection.

EDITOR PREsS:-Is there not a way
to stop this big imposition camped
upon this county and community by
those sheep men from Oregon and
Washington who are unloading fifty
thousand sheep here to be fattened
on our rich. grasses by eating off all
the feed in this section! l think if
anything can be done to stop this
now is the time to make a move in
the matter. These men unload their
sheep here to be fattened up i'll our
s;poor country" as they call it. If it
is as they say we do not want it made
any poorer by non-residents; but let
the ranchmen and actual settlers who
are here have what there is in it, for
what money they receive for their
wool and stock stays in the country,
while the western shippers stop a few
months, fatten their sheep and are
gone so that the profit in our grasses
is a total loss to our county and state!
l hope that something can be done to
protect our home stockmen and
rancbmen. HERDER.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Our Bold Soldier Bows.

1t is not altogether unpleasant to
observe from the report of the adiu-
tant general that the United States,
II S of war, could put into the
field a force of nearly 100000 men.
OF actual enlistments in the armies
of both sides in the late war there
were not far from 100000.
The army of disciplined national
guards is not large, in spite of the EN-.
c%ouragement given to it by both
state and national governments of
late years. 1t numbers only lO3, 292
men and S,052 officers, a little body
with a big head. The great North
west and the grand Mississippi valley
would furnish Il great portion of our
soldiers in the event of another war,
and the great Burlington System, sit.
uated in the very heart of the cont
nent, would be the natural means of
movement for the army. If our east.
ern seaboard were attacked, "The
Burlington would carry .the boys''
from North Dakota, Montana, WASH
ington, Oregon. Minnesota and Wis.
consin in Chicago, over its own line
from st. Paul and Minneapolis, and
bring the recruits from California,
Nevada, Wyoming, South Dakota,
Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri Iowa and
Illinois by the same means. If Mexi.
co should kick up it's heels, or a naval
enemy trouble us in the gulf, "The
Burlington could carry an immense
number of defenders to the gateways
of st. Louis and Kansas City. 1t is

A Visitors Impressions Of Medora.

EDITOR PRESs:-Since | know your
excellent paper reaches all parts of
Billings county, as we'll as all parts of
the continent, 1 wish to call your
readers attention to the great and
good change that has taken place in
Medora, the capital of that county,
side by side with the tide of prohibit
ton now dawning upon this new
state.
1t is but a few years ago when the
noted Marquis de Mores vas cutting
a wide swath in this land, when the
greatest evidence of superior man.

off with a $50 pair of spurs, a brace
of Colts navy r%evolvers with 7I
inch barrels that made a report sec.
ond only to a baby cannon and ever
the famous COW boy hat costing $l4;
hair bride and lariat $40, with q
Collins saddle from ss65 to $3.50, &c. &C.,
a Concord coach drawn by six wild
unframed steeds daily entering and
leaving the, then, most noted town on
the line of the N. p. r. r., to the
great delight of at least three hun
bred visitors of the town and world
famed Bad Lands.
Look upon that picture and then
on this, and ponder. To-day Billings
county is fully organized, has a full
corps of most efficient county officers;
her commissioners are Geo, +. Wood.
man, j. A. Van Eeghen and Howard
Eaton; auditor, j. G. Williamson;
treasurer, Joseph Ferris; sheriff, Capt
E. G. Paddock; clerk of court, Silvane
Ferris; judge Of local court, the corp
ulent Mcdonald; all of these are men
of caliber as well as experience. This
is,perhaps, the banner county of the
state to-day, financially speaking, al
ways cashing her county orders with
a large surplus Oh hand. The result
of two years finds but n a $ or the
court calendar, with no probability Of
any necessity for q term of court in
the near future.
The most striking feature of this
town is its present moral condition
compared with her past. OF course
we must admit that the transient
nature of her population a few years
ago almost made it impossible that
any great degree of morality should
center here. Not SO now, few towns
on the line of the road so carefully
keep the Sabbath holy. A week ago
last Sunday l Vas highly pleased to
witness the attendance at Sunday
school in that wild and romantic
town where, from the nature of the
bluffs the suns rays are not visible
for an hour after the rising and be.
fore the setting thereof. In fact had
not the writer been a visitor among
them and had to be entertained las is
the custom of the good people of Me-
dora, with lavish handy in his world
ly and ungodly way, it is but fair to
say that the entire population would
have been in attendance. Hereafter
that l may have no sins but my own
to answer for l will visit them during
the working days.
