The driving out of so many cattle
from this county as is now taking
place might. at first thought, seem "a
great misfortune. As regards our as
S.ssible wealth and raising revenue,
the loss may he felt in the future.
although these cattle have been as
,..ssei for this year. Yet it was hut n
forced move owing to the rapidly
growing bands Of the permanent set
Ter, the fencing OF claims and water
courses. This is evidence Oi growth
and development Of Il permanent
character. Though slower in return
ing assessable wealth it is more Ger
tain and enduring. Cattle raising in
this county is in the transition state.
1t was sure to come. From bands Of
25,OOO head they have become re-
duced to 800, and instead Of the
business being conducted by the few it
is in the hands OF the many, and men
who have come to stay, build homes
and care for everything they raise.
With plenty of hay and water the
ranchmen's bands can he taken
through the hardest winter weather.
which will remove the inhuman iea-
ture Of cattle raising IN this count y
ut least. The action of the ranchmen
on the Judith i'm forming Farmers
Roundup association is a step in the
right direction. They are now masters
of the situation and there should be
thorough organization for facilitating
all matters pei tanning to the business.
They can pool their interests during
the shipping season and secure all
the advantages that were accorded the
larger association. With the increase
of small bands, the rapid growth ol
our sheep and cattle interests, and tn.
increasing value of improved lands
will soon cover the loss sustained 10y
the removal OF range cattle.

Senators Sanders and Power are
sxerting themselves to secure an ap-
preparation for the improvement OF
the upper Missouri. While the advent
of railroads has thrown steamboat
ing in the shade, it would work great
injury to Montana to have this great
water way wholly neglected. Though
the government cannot prevent the
occurrence OF drouth and consequent
low stage of water, it can remove the
distractions that menace navigation
every season. For slow and bulky

Signing q Check BY Electricity.

One OF the marvels OF electricity, and
one of the most striking of the Edison
exhibits at the Paris exposition, was
the little instrument which enables the
operator to sign a check 100 miles dis
tant. The writing to be transmitted
is impressed on soft paper with an or
dinary stylus. This is mounted on a
cylinder, which, as it revOlves, "makes
and breaks" the electric current by
means OF the varying indent ations on
the paper. At the receiving end OF the
wire u similar cylinder, movin. i'm ac-
curate synchrOnism with the other,
receives the current on a chemically
prepared paper, on which it trans
scribes the signatures in black letters
OIL white ground.
