Regular correspondence
Mr.. Frank Pierce, of Mckenzie,
is visiting in this vicinity.
Frank Doty, Of Henry County,
is over in Benton this week, haul
ing cross-ties from his place to the
railroad.
Mr.. James Beaton, Of Big Sandy,

JOY meeting with his many friends
at that place.
While fitting handle to an axe

serious wound.
There is great excitement in this,
the ninth civil district, about stock
dying from blind staggers, produc-
ed by feeding unsound corn. All
corn for feeding purposes should
be carefully free from unsound
grains.

The Rocky Mountain Conpany's Line
to MissouIa
The Missoulian.l ]


l.. o. Leonard, manager of the
Rocky Mountain Telegraph Com
pany, arrived In the city yesterday.
When asked by Mlssoullan repre-
sentative about the time he xpected
the company would have an Office
opened up in Missoula, he replied
that it would be very soon, perhaps
before August |, but 1t depended up
on the actions of the Northern Pa
cific in allowing the poles of
the Rocky Mountain Company
to remain on the right
of way. Mr.. Leonard said:
"Ihe Rocky Mountain Telegraph
Company have a charter lroiu the
government which allows il the
privilege of following military and
post roads, and by AN act of con-
gress, railroads are made post roads
and in placing our poles on the
Northern Pacific right of way, we
have done nothing Illegal nor any
thing which justiiies the n North-
ern Pacific or the Western Pacific
or the Western Union Company
in removing the poles erect.
cd or in any other
way interfering with our line"
Mr.. Leonard anticipates no serious
trouble hereafter from the Northern
Pacific. The workmen who, under
orders of the railroad company, re.
moved the poles, in many places
chopped them down and threw
them in the river, thus doing un.
called-tOr damage to the telcyranh
company. II Is not likely thai any
legal trouble will arise from this, as
II damage suit would delay the ex-
tending OF the telegraph line, per-
haps IL few years. Wire Is now
stretched into the city, and the only
parts to be builtare over the railroad
right of way, where the poles were
chopped down.

The masses of the North rallied
to the flag. The masses of the
South never quite warmed to the
stars and bars; nor was there at any
time during the war any deep-seated
hostile feeling against the stars and
stripes among the confederate SOL
diers. The "Bonnie Blue Flag"
was poor jingle. The only spirit
stirring song we had was "DiXie,n
and we got that from Christy's
minstrels, II Northern troupe. The
truth is, the Union had the music
and the colors on us, as well as the
numbers, and the North, at least,
ought to be proud of US that with
such odds of music and sentiment
against us we stood out so long.
Happily we have the flag back
again; that flag which never floated
over mean or cowardly action
whose history is an unbroken story
of patriotism and valor; and which,
as II spreads itself to the battle aud
the breeze, 10 the sunshine and the
storm, tells to heaven and earth as
plainly as words could tell the ORR
gin and genius of our great republic.
God bless the flag! The South was
never 30 fortunate as when she
found herself once more encircled
by its folds, drawn at Apponiattox
by the hands of far-seeing, mag
unanimous and brave man.

Justify extensive movements. But
along this northern zone will be
seen and felt the border ;orays
which are the worst part of warfare.
The people are, and have long been,
prepared for 1t. They will rush to
arms with an cagerness which the
repression of years has only served
to iniiame. The war will nowhere
rage with more bitterness, or leave
ELECTS more lasting or clearly To be
felt. Tho eanti-Amcrican sentiments
which expresses itself SO loudly at
Victoria Is more loud but less In
tense than that of the Canadians all
along the line. The American bor-
dercrs are not less intense or anx-
ious. There will be red line of
fire a thousand miles long If war Is
ever declared.

Outside the close doors OF bar
ber's shop which 1 passed on my
way to church yesterday forenoon,
there stood young man, neat in
dress and of pleasing appearance,
who scanped each passer with a
glance in which there seemed to bc
something of professional criticism,
says writer in the Boston Post.
If his survey appeared to be salts
factory he addressed u few words to
the person and there WAS short
coiloquy. AS / drew nearer heard
his remark to an unkempt wayfarer
in front of me; and 1t was: "Shavs,
sir? Right in here" And with a
pass-key he threw back the latch of
OF the locked door and waved the
customer inside, closing the door
with care and politeness after him.
The half secrecy OF the proceeding
doubtless added to the attractive
ness of the offer of unlawful service
to those In need of 1t.
