an exception in favor of the Indians, and
that hereafter they must pay full fare. The

How The Country Is Growing.
From the New York World OemO.

Mr.. Edward Atkinson writes in a trade
monthly that not less than five or six
thousand miles of railroad a year will
have to be built to accommodate the
country's prospective growth in popula-
ton. The estimate is probably within
bounds. We have still great deal of ter
ritory TO fill, and it goes on filling in spite
of the republican croakers.

it the effect of the unsheathing of Irby's

should not the populist party so before

Print 1t In English.

A good, plain, sensible person writes
10 complain of the growing fashion in
this republic of printing bills of fare at
hotels and private dinners in French in
stead of English. This good, plain.
sensible person is exactly right.
Why i'll the name of Noah Webster
and Lindlcy Murray should pork chop
be called cotelette de pore on a restau-
rant bill Of fare, that, too, in a restau-
rant kept by as good an Irishman as ever
danced jig? Why, again, should lit
tie mixed up, frizzled up bit of an in
finitesimal chicken pie served with half
teaspoonful of string beans be called
quenelles de volatile Il la regence fageo-
let's? II the fellow wants regence or
fageolets, let him get them, by all
means, but let us have our chicken pie
and string beans in English. Then,
again, when you want some fried eel,
why not say fried eel? Why be guilty
of the idiocy Of saying you want acco-
lade d'anguilles?
What can be more silly and unpatri-
otic than to call II cup Of chicken broth
essence de volatile en- tassc? Out upon
the whole idiotic fashion! Let us print
our bills of fare i'll English. English is
good enough for us. Let us call pea sonp
pea soup and not pnrce de pois. And when
these foreign fellows presume on the
toadyisln Of the American people so far
us to call oven Il common bit of roast
turkey, our own Yankee turkey, u din
don a Ia br1che, it is time to stop for
ever this French bill of fare business
We draw the line ON dindon d la broche

KILL THE THISTLES.

A"e Law Declares that the Noxious
Weeds Must BE Destroyed.
In view of the recent discovery of the
Russian thistle in Great Falls the pro-
Visions of the Montana laws concerning
thistles will prove of INTEREST,"
Section lbs of the penal code de-
clares that any person owning or con-
trolling any lands in this state and who
knowing y permits any thistles to grow
thereon is guilty of permitting com
mon nuisance and shall be punished by
fine OF not more than $50 nor less than
70. Section LOO makes it the duty of
every person having knowledge of this
Ties growing on another's land to inme-
dlate.ly destroy them or give the person
on OF whose land thistles are growing notice
thereof Thietles left standing on the
ioth Gay OF August, according to section
l'll?' must be cut down by the road su :
pervisor and the cost of so doing paid by
the county and the amount collected of
the party owning the land.

SCHOOL BOOKS.
\. II. HnEfLER.
BEET ALLFREy,
Committee.

Judge Mediation of Butte on Satur-
day rendered decision in what is called
the school book case. 1t will be rrmcm-
bcred that the legislature at it's recent
session failed to adopt new text books
for use i'll the schools, the contract for
those heretofore in use having expired.
To remedy this failure the state board
of education selected d list which in
cluded quite a number of changes and
recommended that it be adopted by the
boards of trustees IN the several coun-
ties The Butte board accepted the rec
ommendation and ordered that the
change 90 into effect at the beginning of
the coming school year. To this there
was an earnest and serious protest on
the part Of parents and citizens. in fact
Il petition containing about!lO,OOO names
was presented by way Of remonstrance.
To this the board turned deaf ear and
declined to recede from the orlcr,t had
made. Then the citizens tookathe mat
ter into the district court and asked for
an injunction to restrain the board from
enforcing its order on the ground that
the legislature alone had the power to
select teXi books for the schools and if
the change as ordered was made it
would entail great expense ON the par
cnts and was liable TO =. be again
changed by the next legislature.
The petition was duly argued on
both sides, the county attorney
for the trustees. On the hear.
ing the court granted permanent in.
and an appeal was taken to the
supreme court. Until decision is
reached by the latter the old,bouks will
be used in Butte. The ruling of the
court seems 10 be IL good one and ii will
probably be sustained. In the mean
time what is the Great Falls board
going to do in the prcmiscs: 1t. too,
has ordered the change AS recommended
by the state board, and thus far there
has been no objection raised bv the
parents. Even in the absrnr" of any
protest ii would seem to be- good policy
to await the action of The supreme court.
Beyond any question the books used
should be uniform throughout the state.
No harm can come OF a short delay. and
N the interests of economy and uni
'ornity our board might temporarily
suspend its order for the change.

The Choteau Montanian, in the last
issue cditorially says;
The fair at Great Falls should inter
est the people OF this section, especially
the farmers. By making an exhibit
there they advertise their business. and
as farming, other than rs business. is
improper, il certainly needs advertising
TO be successful. BY exhibiting your
product you make your ability to supply
d demand known, and by that means
increase your business and secure a mar
krt. a good exhibit from Teton county
should be made a feature of the fair.
and to that end we suggest that a com.
mittce be appointed among the people
to prepare one from this county. How
would it do to call meeting of the
ranchmcn for that purpose? Let us hear

EdV ard Beecher and Pre.existencc.

EdV ard Beechcr and Pre-existence.
Oi all the obituary notices of the late
EDWARD Beecher none apparently has
mentioned what was the most impor-
tant and original intellectual work of
his life. This was book called "The
Conflict Of Ages, - Tt dealt with the
problem of existence previous to this
earthly one If Harriet Beecher Stowe
and Henry Ward Beecher had not been
SO famous that they eclipsod in meas
ure the rest of Lyman Beechers ii chill
dren, Edward Beecher would have been
better known. He was really more of an
original thinker and Investigator than
his brother Henry Ward was. And he
retained all his intellectual powers up to
the time of his death at the age of 92.
Only for the accident that necessitated
the amputation of his leg in 1889 he
would probably have continued in an
active pastorata till his last illness, SO
wonderful were his vigor and physical
power.
Edward Beecher reasoned out and
gave to the world the doctrine of Dre-
existence nearly GO years ago, long be-
fore Blayajsly and the theosophists pro-
claimed it to the world. Beecher did
not indeed 90 so far as TO say man had
had hundreds of existences Oh this nlan-
ct, his spirit being born over and over
again into Il succession Of lives till he
developed all perfection in the course of
the ages. The Puritan, yet kindly
preachcr, nourished as he had been On
New England theology, could not rec
oncile the justice of God with the eter-
nal punishment of man. Even if into
life OF 20 years d man had crowded all
the wlcEcdnoss he could possibly devise,
that, Edward Beecher Thought would
be insufficient to condemn him to suffer
in fiery shcol through all eternity.
To get around the difficulty and rec
oncile it with Biblical statements the
preacher hit upon tho idea that man had
existed i'll life previous to this, and
there had sinned. A merciful Deity
would not condemn him utterly, but
would let him come into another life
on probation. Then if there was no re-
pentanco at the end of the probationary
life the sinner would go down to meet
the doom Of dalnnation. To the end of
his days the good old man believed this

respondent somo years before his death
