PRoF. EDWARD S. MORSE, of Massa-
chusetts, who has been studying crit
cally some of the new cities that are
springing up in the south under the
stimulus of manufactures, makes some
good points in a recent newspaper arti.
Gle on the necessity of wise and careful
work in laying the foundations of com.
mercial and industrial c%enters in new
regions. While chance locates most cit
les, and the best sites cannot therefore
always be selected, Prof. Morse insists
that there are many things to be done
for the future in the lncipiency Of their
growth. Fresh air, good water, well
paved and we'll lighted streets are at
tainable by every community, but there
are other things to consider. Professor
Morse demands, for instance, that the
instigator of a factory whistle should be
imprisoned for life in an active boiler
shop. The city's great factories, work
shops, furnaces and the like should be
in Il district by themselves, its lighter
shops of dry goods, books, ETC., on some
pleasant boulevard away from the
wholesale stores. The tall tenement
house should be barred and the future
metropolis should start right by provid-
ing homes for its working people, each
with enough ground for a grass plat
and flowers and vegetable garden. Pro-
fessor Morse would have in each town a
public library building containing an
industrial art museum, scientific collec-
ton, etc, and above all a capacious city
hall that should be let at a nominal cost
for lighting and janitor service, where
structive character could be given. He
would have every city make its own
light, own its transportation lines and
water supply.
All these conditions could be realized
in the towns that are laid out and built
by big improvement companies, but
Professor Morse's plan smacks too much
of p~aternalism to please the average
American citizen. Independence and
individuality are the marked traits of
our people and nowhere are these char
acteristics more strongly accentuated
than in our western communities, whore
mon by individual effort have conquered
fortune. The tendency in all our new
municipalities is toward the closest re-.
striction of corporate powers, and the
work of beautifying and adjoining our
growing towns devolves chiefly upon
public spirited individuals. Still there
is a great deal in starting right.

A MONTANA PICTURE.

Outlined against a sky Of misty blue
The mountains stand, their SUBMITS Drowned
with snow.
Across them falls the radient sunset glow.
The purple shadows CLEAN with crimson hue.
A flashing, silvery stream goes trembling
down
Among the tall dark pines of vivid green,
Elusive glimpses here and there are seen
Of glistening rocks and tender moses brown.
A deer, all motionless with brave uplifted
head
Stands, with a tiny fawn upon n mound,
Just poised, to spring away with frantic
bound
At sight Of foe. or sound of hunters tread.
A stretch Of prairie, full of waverine light,
A gaunt gray wolf, slow slouching through
the grass,
An eagle %circling toward the mountain pass
AS If with day to take his weary fight.
Olive Harlan.

WHILE we are in the habit of speak
ing patronizingly OF u neighbors in
Japan for adopting a parliamentary form
Of government it is just possible we
could learn n thing or two from them
about courtesy in public life. For in
stance, the presiding oillcerof the Japan
ESQ house of commons does not WELD a
gavel with which to bulldoze or intimi-
date members. When half a dozen
members get the floor and begin talking
at the same time tho president, with a
smile and n d~eprecatory gesture, softly
says "Please wait a moment" Fancy
our American car showing such polite
ness and consideration as that! Can we
reasonably claim to have the highest
form of civilization when we read that
in the Japanese house Of commons de-
bates are conducted with no motion be-
fore the house, that the presiding officer
himself takes a hand in them without a
thought Of improperly or evoking CEN
sure. and that there is no gag law? Is
it any wonder that the best manual of
American parliamentary practice, trans
lated into Japanese and thoroughly adj
vertised in the country, has had no sale
at all, although it was without a COM
petitor?

LET us be thankful we live in a land
of peace and order, where law is SUI
preme, instead Of in a lawless and dan
gerous community like New York state.
In the suburbs of the metropolis the
other day Colonel Ingersoll's secretary
and another man went at one another
with pistols and knives and one of them
was done to death, and on the following
day in a New York fiat a man killed his
rival in love. Two or three DAYS pre-
%vionsly, at a republican convention held
in central New York, rival delegates
broke through doors and windows and
fought one another with pistols until
the police stopped the row. God-fear-
ing parents, wishing to rear their fami-
lies in a good moral atmosphere where
these things are barred, should come TO
Montana, where there is a law against
carrying firearms.

A FEW days canvass of the city shows
that Helena has ample accommodation
for 10000 visitors, and this limit could
be readily increased by several thousand
more. In the preliminary canvass
householders have only stated the nun
Der they would accommodate in any
event without taxing their honses to
their capacity. In hundreds of cases
the canvassers were informed that dou-
BILE the number allotted would be en-
tertained if necessary. Our citizens
will also be prepared with a guarantee
for that pavilion or auditorium, and the
coming of the visiting committee of the
Teachers association is awaited in the
full confidence that their every require
ment will be met.

THE SHADOWGRAPHER

[srNCH MuRrHy's COMB TO IpwN.l
Since Murphy's come to town things don't
seem quite tho same.
I have noticed less whisky and increase OF
rain.
Up in the ''bloody first" I see a change OF
sentiment.
And Iissnar's spring water now goes whore
whisky went.
Bnrtenders are standing round with loss
II less to do;
''They are good fellows" Murphy says,
.'well have them with us. too"
There are reasons for believing that King
Rum will cease to drown
The husbands. wives and little folks, since
Murphy's come to town.
Each night upon the corner whore Main
street joins Wood
You'll tind n crowd of characters that POI
licemen call mo good"
There are bnmmers, drunkards, Cinnamon,
prize fighters and vags
New ones from Deer Lodge, and a major
ity with jays.
'That's just my crowd" says Murphy, as
he loosens up his tongue,
And drinks u cocktail of our air and fills
up either lung.
And when his eyes begin to shine, then you
can mark it down
There will be a difference somewhere before
Murphy's ont of town.
You ask me how he does it, we'll, 90 around
and see.
And if you'll explain the secret. why you've
got the best of me.
For instance, l cite the case of lightweight
Bill Sears,
AS tough a nut az you can find, we'll, he
came down to tears,
And now he swears by all that's good that
though his weight is light,
He's out to challenge Satan to make a fin
ish fight
And it's dollars to %doughnuts that be will
do him brown,
For he is fighting under gospel rules since
Murphy's come to town.
And Iarkins, the gambler, he says he has
quit the game
And is boosting now for Murphy and thinks
he'll change his name.
Another man who played a part in Jack
Langrishe's old show
Has joined Murphy's company and says he
wants to know
Why all don't come when Murphy says he's
their friend,
As he rolls his gray eyes till the crowd be-
gins to bend.
And thus it goes, and I can see the gulch
has changed its gown,
From painted red to purer white. since
Murphy's come to town.

What has bee ,me of the Kennebec ard

about it; how soon the surveyors will be

but as it is not mentioned in the papers ard
no one seems to know anything about it
here in the county, would be glad if you
could give US any light on the suffice.
The people all along the line are ready
to receive it and do all they can to push it
through if they can only be told which way
to push; but for the last two months noth-
ing has been said or heard of it. What is
the trouble?
If you can answer the above questions
YOU would greatly obligs many Of your

pushed as fast as possible.
