A good looking, well-to do and popu-
lar young bachelor of an interior town
was being leased by the young ladies
of a club for not getting married. He
said: "Illmarry the girl of you're club,
whom, on a secret vote, you elect to be
my wife" There were nine members
of the club. Each girl went into a
corner, and used great caution in pre-
pairing her ballot and disguised the
handwriting. The result of the vote
was that there was nine votes cast,
each girl receiving one. The young
man remains a bachelor, the club is
broken up and the girls are mortal
enemies, united in the determination
that they will never speak to that nasty
man again. -EEchGnge.

There was once a man who had a wooden
leg. The man was an officer in the federal
army. He had lost his leg at Sharpsburg.

One day u runaway negro, n contraband,
strolled into camp, and the officer engage d
him as his body servant.
After looking long upon the wine one
night at a little dinner, the officer came
home to his tent. He called his contra
band to help him pull off his boots.
Now, SAM he said, "be careful. One
of these boots is tight, and it most pulls
my leg out to get it OFF. Besides, feel
rather himsy."
Use ailus keerful, boss replied Sam,
and he carefully removed the first 300.
When the contfaband began to pull ut
the other boot the officer loosened the
straps of the wooden leg Il little. Sam
pulled hard and things came with u rush.

Sam saw the leg p%rotrudinp from the tor

ELECTRIC TR1UMPHs.

AS the citizens of Helena traverse
some score Of miles of city streets in
electric cars and pursue their evening
employments beneath the electric light
it is only with an effort that they real
ize that all this is tho work Of the past
decade. Yet such IS the fact. That
period Of time embraces tho trlumphs
of electric lighting, the inception of
electric railways and the increasing use
of electric power. 1t is to tho credit Of
oar characteristic western energy that
Helena is already equipped like a
metropolis in the first two departments
OF electric skill and that within a com
comparatively short period she will ba
reaping the fruits Of the application to
the Missouri river of the third.
The progress of electric lighting has
proved incredibly rapid, for full ten
years have not actually elapsed since il
passed from the vaguenas3 OF expert
ment into the reliability OF practice.
BY April, 1892, 94G houses had been
wired IN New York city and about
10000 lamps supplied. I~ncandescent
lighting at once made it's mark and Lon.
don followed close en- the heels q,
Gotham's example. At the present
time there are 100000 i%ncandegcent
lamps in use in this country. The an

FOREST LEGISLATION.

Under the auspices of the American
Forestry association, the present con
gress is to be invited to make one more
effort to solve the vexed questions in our
forest problem. The bill, it seems, will
make provision for the issue Of three
different kind OF licenses. The pros.
p%ector's permit will legalize, subject to
well-defined restrictions, the prosecution
Of mining industries on forest lands.
The second form of license will permit
the settler to cut the timber he re-
quires, providing always that he is not
guilty OF waste and that he conforms to
the requirements of the authorities.
The timber license will grant to lum-
bermen the privilege Of cutting timber
on such portions of the reservations, as
tho commissioner in charge may desig-
nate. " ."".
The people of Montana know some
thing of the American Forestry asso-
citation. No one here wishes to deny
that the prime object they have IN view
is of the most beneficial and necessary
kind. The preservation OF our forest
from reckless waste and destruction is
an issue Of vital interest to tliis state in
many moro ways than the mere protec-
ton Of the timber. The very existence
of the association is a healthy sign Of
our national emancipation from the pro-
digality with which we have been &C
customed to %squander the
that nature has heaped upon us. But.
while we do not question the good in
tentions Of the forestry association, u
experience in Montana has driven us to
the conclusion that their zeal in many
instances outruns their discretion. On
more than one occasion we have had
ample proof that this body is not posted
on local needs, has not even a respecta-
bic geographical and Typographical
knowledge of the sections Of country
with which it ventures to deal. The
thing, an excellent thing. But there is
one thing even better, and that is the
earnest encouragement of the industries
that are bringing Montana to the fore
front IN the union. Even for the sake
of our valuable forest interests, we can
not afford to have the pursuit--the free
and u%nhampered pursuit-of mining
checked within the state. We requir5
settlers TO open up our agricultural lands
and enrich themselves by the supply of
our fourishing local markets. We are
not going to permit some thousand
trees, more or less, to interfere with
their coming. There is no need for ex-
travagance. Extravaganza is always a
folly and frequently a crime. But in
the interests of our state and Of our citi-
zens, our representatives in congress
will do we'll to see that our future
growth is not impeded by foolishly hide
bound legislation.

tory of electricity is merely u question

of time.
Every one of our citizens who is inter
ested in the future of this city knows
what wonderful strides have recently
been made in the transmission Of cleo
trlcal power. 1t is urged by the croak-
ers that the experiments OF last sum
mer at Frankfort, which resulted in tho
transmission OF power over II distance
of more than 100 miles with u loss OF
some 20 per cont, were conducted on u
basis Of expenditure that was utterly
Incompatible with business principles
and profitable results. That may be so
or it may not. The fact remains that
an effort is already being made to utilize
the power Of Niagara and that, when
the necessary works nre completed, a
development of 12,50o horse power will
be utilized in Buffalo, Rochester, and
more distant points. The Missouri
scheme can and must go through.
There seems to be almost no limit to
the profitable uses to which We can
apply this wonderful fin de steele ser
want. Already it serves for Welding the
tires of bicycles, telegraph wires, wire
rope, steel axles, car tires, and even
rails. Pipe welding by electricity is an
accomplished fact, and the same pro-
cess has been applied to the m%anufac-
ture of conical shells and shrapnel.
The application of electricity has within
five years reduced the cost Of aluminium
from S. to 80 cents per pound. And.
in spite of all this wonderful record, it
is strictly within the margin of truth
to assert that electric possibilities are
still in their infancy.
