old timer will always call a person to
time if the da els not correct, especial
" when the tie deals with ali histori-
cal fact
A story is row going the rounds that
pretends to tell hov Montana was
named. The story comes from the
Wa shIngt on G lrres l,',ndent of the Gin
clnnati Enq iirer. His version of the
story is that General Denver proposed
the name TO Stephen A. Douglas and
in 1861 the latter introduced the bill.
w. ID. Flanuery, of Bozeman, does
not dispute tl.ut Gei.eral Denver was
the man whu suggested Montana"
as he does nos know about that; but
he says Steph a. Douglas never in
troduced the ill in S64 or 1861, be-
cause he died arly in 81. Mr.. Flan-
nery's attentit n was directed to Mon
tana on account of the discussion in
congress over the new territ DRY in 1864.
He started out in '64 and reached
Montana in 1865, set ling in the Gala
tin valley, where he still resides.
Sir Hugh McQuaid, of Helena, says
"Billy" is right; that Douglas was dead
before Montana was created by con-
gress. Try again.
