Rev. J.O. Peck, of the Methodist Episco- pal Church. who formerly preached in this city, has set good example. It has been the custom of the board of missions of that church to send one of It's secretaries on 8 tour of inspection of its foreign fields. This year Rev. Dr. J. O. Peck Of NewYork was selected to visit India and Mslsysis. Dr. Peck sold his residence, stored his fur niture, and made all arrangements for making the journey with his wife. But while attending the general conference at Minneapolis last week he became 20 much impressed with the difficulty which the church would this year encounter Of 1sis- ing the money needed for supporting it's work in the home and foreign fields. that he determined to abandon his journey and devote the time 1t would require to raining funds for ths mission treasury. The au- nouncement of this decision surprised his brethren. Such self-denisl was without parallel In the history of the beard.

The Lackswanna valley weather prophet, of Scranton, Pennsylvania, disagrees with other weather prophets about the coming winter. Instead of being severe season, as they generally predict, it will be mild and open winter. Among numerous req sons for bis belief are the following: "Tosds are still hopping on the dead leaves in moist places, and meadow moles are roofing up little mounds of dirt in rich soil-unfailable indications of warm weather for weeks and of green Christ mas. The tosds sang sixteen days later than usual. another good sign of 8 mild winter. The fur of skunks and coons Is thinner by half than 1t wss year ago, and that is another reason why predict a very light snowfall before grounding day"

VIII AT TO SEE AT TIL Ii FAIR.

After tho problem Of reaching the
Worlds fair is solved, the visitor vii
DO met with another important question
less serious, but nevertheless, OF much
Importance. He must learn what should
be seen first and how to use his time tc
the very best advantage in seeing the
other things. This does not concern
our friendn who have plenty OF money
and no end Of leisure time and are thus
permitted to spend the summer in Chi.
cago, II they feel so disposed. 1t is for
tho benefit Of the visitor who can spend
but a week or SO at the best aud must
watch tho expense account, that sugges-
tions are offered.
The Montana visitor, first of all,
should register at the Montana build
ing and then inspect the states exhibit.
After that, he should see what interests
him most and will result in the most
benefits. Mining is a great indus
try in this state and all interested in
it should study the exhibits Of mines.
minerals and mining machinery. In
this way material knowledge will be
gathered and opportunities offered for
new suggestions and ideas. The railroad
man should likewise give a good part of
his time to the exhibits in his line of
business and so with the merchant,
ranchman and manufacturer; each
should know what the world is doing to
improve the conditions of his occupa-
tion in life. It is only in this way that
the fair can become a great educational
force.
Doubtless the greatest mistake will
be in attempting to see too much. This
can only result in the visitors leaving
Chicago with but a vague impression of
what he has seen. It is we'll then to
gather a few ideas in advance before
starting out on a tour Of inspection, and
plan to see certain features first Of all.
After that give all possible time to the
general displays from other nations.
Nearly all features Of American exhibits
may be seen in a general way and in
other forms at a future time in our
great clties. That portion Of the show
from foreign lands is, however, a reflec-
ton of the habits, customs and work of
people unknown to us except through
literature. To see this at Chicago is to
receive IN object lesson Of what we most
desire to know and enjoy what is next
best to a trip abroad.
Finally, do not be in a hurry. Take
plenty Of time and plenty of rest. Sight
seeing is hard work and as a visit to the
fair will be a summer vacation for the
great majority Of our visitors, each
should return to work rested in body
and mind. By following these few sug-
gestions and others which will be given
by friends and Worlds fair correspon-
dents, it is believed that every Montan.
ian will receive such benefits as are af-
forded by this great picture of the
worlds progress.

GOOD WORK.

Hurrah for the authorities of Brook
haven, Miss! Long may they live to
give out that sort Of justice chronicled
IN our news dispatches! For the frs
time, the whitecaps have received such
medicine as they deserve, and the honor
OF furnishing the prescription and adj
ministering it in allopathio doses be.
longs to Brookhaven.
1t would seem that the whitecaps Of
that neighhorhood do not differ from
those in Posey county, Indiana, or any
other community. They are the same
CO wardly fiends who t%errorize society
and carry out personal revenge under
the thin guise OF an organization, which
they claim, administers justice when the
law fails. The Mississippi branch of
this order of hoodlums and blackmail-
ers carried out the policy with fine re-
gard to details. They drove many peo-
pie out OF the country, horse whipped
some, tarred and feathered others and
killed a few. They forgot that there
were laws in the state and overlooked
the presence of officers, until it hap
pened one day that they were lodged in
the county Jail. Their surprise was
further increased by a succession Of in
d%ictments, convictions and sentences to
terms in the penitentiary.
The reports say that after receiving
sentences these fellows broke into tears
and begged the judge for mercy, while
their wives and babies joined in the gen
eral wall of distress. 1t was probably
the most gratifying evidence OF grief
ever seen in a Mississippi court room
and it is hoped that there will be causes
for more of it.. Mississippi justice won
much respect from the country at large
when its officers chased two prize
fighters to New York and compelled one
of them to serve a four months sen
tence for disobeying the law. The
Brookhaven affair causes us to renew
former compliments and shows tina
prominent citizens who happen to b.
whitecaps need expect no moro consid.
Grafton than other criminals.

A TASTE Of n%otoriety, like a little

AGRICULGIRAIIN SPEAKING,

and for cause Of complaint sets forth.
that in and around Billings there is
twenty times as much land under cult
walton by irrigation than around Miles
City. that there are d dozen irrieatinr
canals up that way bigger and better
than our Miles City ditch. all of which
We do not despute because we know that
the Gazette never tells a iie-uniess well
fortified with corroboratiye facts, Rut
admitting these things to be true. il still
remains a plain matter of history. that
circumscribed as our agricultural limits
and possibilities are according TO the
Gazette, we have succeeded in estab-
fishing a reputation in that line that is
accorded to no other locality in Mon.
tana and which we will so broaden,
lengthen and build upon this wear as to
make the invidious criticism of rival 10
uBl'uI iI'itbIouS. men The
Gazette boasts of its having more land
under irrigation and more ~irrigatipp
canals in operation. than we have. if
should remember that it is playing with
edged tools. The Gazette might fur
ther have boosted that it has possessed
these points of superioty for years before
we here attempted anything more ex-
tensive than a garden patch. With
such a start, Billings ought today be
the recognized source of supply of the
products under consideration. for the
state. How Is it and why is it that in
the two years that Miles City farmers
have enjoyed the help of irrigation it
has stepped firmly into this place. If
the farming country around Billings is
capable 81 producing a more Iuxuriapf
and varied growth than is possible here.
the way to prove it is by doing il on the
farms and not in the columns of the
