medical treatment administered the

REPRESENTATIVE aoopELL,

Much admiration and sympathy is
expressed for Hon. Clarence M. Good
ell, the remaining representative from
Fergus county, who remains to look
after the interests of his constituents
unbribed. He is a Helena boy who
has gone out into the world to win an
honorable name, and all take a pride
in his renown as member of the house
from Fergus county. Faithful among
the faithful only he."-Helena Herald.
The people of Fergus county made
no mistake when they elected Clarence
NJ. Goodell their representative. Mr..
Goodell made no claims to being an
orator, and only attempted to speak
out of convictions of duty. But time
has proven that his heart was right
and his head level. His chief
ambition was to do something for the
people of Fergus county, and faithfully
represent and respect the wishes of his
party. If he could not shine in debate
he could do faithful work.. The bills on
our table and the notes he has writ. n
IN relation to them attest his devotion
o legislative matters. While some
members were evidently "casting an
anchor to the windward." Mr.. Goodell
was working for his constituents. All
honor and credit to Representative
Goodell. The Republicans of Fergus
county should tender him u banquet
IN his return from the legislature.

TO HELENA.

AS the ARGUS was about to go to
press a letter was received from Rep
resentative Coder at Alpine, stating
that he would leave Monday morning
for Helena, and would reach there
Wednesday. He says that he found
his family much better than he ex.
pected from the tenor of q letter
received from home on February goth
Mr.. Coder states that he is i'll himself
and did not feel able to travel but
considered it his duty to return. HI
also says he will explain his actions al
the close of the legislative session
We hope Mr.. Coder will be able to Sci
himself right. The ARGUS does not
indorse all of the Incorporate re
marks of some of the state papers
even though it condemns Mr.. Coolers
conduct.

THE MONTANA LEGISLATURE.
The Files Of the Senate Cleared, but HUI
dreds of Bills Will Remain Enacted
Upon Whom the Session Adjourns.
No Senator Elected.

MONDAY, Feb. 2Oth-The senate held
two sessions disposing OF all business
on the calendar. House bills relating
to bonds of school trustees and pre-.
scribing the holidays for which teach.
ers may be paid we're both defeated,
while those creating a lien for the SER
vice of stock horses and locating a
state orphan asylum at Twin Bridges
were passed. The committee on
towns and counties rendered q favor
able report on the bill ~annexing parts
of Meagher county to Cascade. God
dard introduced q bill transferring the
property of the historical society to
the state. Senator Baylies presented
petitions from Fergus county favoring
a bounty of So on wolves and coyotes.
The house concurred in the home rule
resolutions presented Saturday. An
attempt was made to obtain the ap-
pointment OF q steering committee to
select bills for passage, but was de-
feated. Among bills favorably re-
ported by the committee of the whole
was that locating a new prison at Bill
lings while retaining that at Deer
Lodge, allowing the payment of taxes
in two equal installments and another
making school trustees responsible for
misrepresentation of funds. Senate
amendment to bounty bill increasing
bounty on coyotes was acceded to by
a vote of 80 to 8. In joint session
Judge Tallant, of Cascade, replied to
an insinuation of bribery in an able
manner, also defending others against
whom the charge had been made and
using the words, cit would seem than
| an archangel from heaven could not
have lived in Helena for the past three
| weeks without being besmirched."
| The ballot resulted Clark 10, Mantle
| 20, Dixon II, Carter 1, Hunt l., neces-
sary to choice 80. Coder voted for
| Carter.
TUESDAY, Feb. 21st-Thes senate ad-
journed early, having little to do, the
house being far behind in its work.
The most important business was a
favorable report from the judiciary

the membership of the supreme court

ing bills: creating Broadwater county
creating q railroad commission, regu'
lating freight rates, for protection o.

locating a deaf and dumb asylum al
Boulder and locating a state prison al

PATRoNIzE LOCAL MERCHANTS.

The question OF patronizing home
merchants is receiving considerable
attention by the press in some parts
If the state. 1t is a matter that con
Germs every locality in a greater or
less degree. Perhaps in no section is
It more important that this policy
~hould be observed than in the Judith
Basin, particularly in mid winter.
At this season of the year very little
if any money comes in here from the
outside, and what goes out never
returns. Our and the indus
tries relied upon to place money in
circulation are somewhat limited at
present, which makes it important
that every dollar should be kept at
home that is possible.
Every business man knows that
times are exceedingly dull and money
scarce, and has been so since the
first of January, but if anything, a
little worse this winter than for a
number of years past. 1t is stated
as a reason that the money is not in
the country.
Much could be done to relieve the
situation in the future if supplies were
purchased at home instead of in the
east or at some railroad point. 1t
is a matter of fact that many of our
woolgrowers lay in supplies at the
railroad when they ship their wool,
and pay cash, yet during the winter
months ask our local merchants to
carry them for merchandise until they
dispose of their clips the following
season. The money spent at the rail
road is SO much taken out of the
county to remain. 1t helps no one
here and tends to make times dull
during the winter season.
We understand our merchants are
going to make an effort to keep this
money at home the coming season,
by offering woolgrowers inducements
to purchase their supplies of them. 1t
frequently occurs that parties pay
more for some articles at the railroad
than they would have been taxed by
| our home merchants. While it is the
privilege of every man to trade where
he can do the best, yet local pride and
interest in home enterprises, should
have some weight.
Let our merchants give woolgrowers,
stockmen and others to understand
that they can make it an object foi
them to buy their supplies at home
and we believe much can be done to
relieve the money stringency during
the winter season. Keep the money
| at home.
