The Inter Mountain is authority for
the statement that Col. Sanders, while
recently at Butte, referred to Helena as
a town practically dead with nothing in
sight except an occasional pig. We
have always found the Inter Mountain
truthful except in political matters,
wherein it can lie at a Nancy Hanks gait.
We are slow, however, to believe it's
story concerning the War Horse and we
shall look for a card OF denial from head
quarters. The War Horse found Hell
ena very much alive whenever he ran
for office and we know Of no reason why
his views of the town should be
changed.

lettering to the assistant secretnryship

among all of the office seekers In Wash
ington it ia said that not one has yet ep-
piled for the position of assistant secretary
OF war. 1t Is an honorable and fairly
lucrative Office, not burdened with over
work, and would be a splendid berth fol
some old soldier possessing dignity and
capacity. and who does not object to being
largely ornamental. 1t would be Il mos,
graceful act on the part of President Glove.
