THIS WILL OF TIE sE0nLr.

The duty of the legislature via !,e "a
pass laws carrying into fleet the dis
pensary system and tie initiativa and
referendum. While the Individual
opinion cf the members is doubtless
opposed to these measures the people
have spoken and their expressed wish.
es should be enacted into law. The
length of time that these measures will.
remain laws will depend entirely upon
their practicability. The people will
watch their effect closely and if it is
found that they afford relief from evils
real and Imaginary, they will be slow
to revoke them. 1t is evident that these
measures we're embodied into the con-
sti tuition by only a fractional part of
the entire population but no one
knows what the opinion of those who
failed to vote upon this question is
and it is safe to say that those directly
interested voted upon them so that a
large per cent of the people had no
convictions upon these subjects. The
enactment of these two radical meas.
ures into law will have the effect of di.
rectly attracting the attention of the
whole people so that when the iniative
and referendum is applied to them, as
it doubtless will be, a clearer express
sion will be had upon them. This talk
about not paying any attention to
these two new constitutional provis-
ions is idle. The duty of the legisla-
ture is plain. 1t will require the appli-
cation of brains to provide the best
possible dispensary law, but the legis-
lature will rise to the occasion and
pass the best possible law to meet the
constitutional Observation-Disclosures.

Aluminium, a. rape-.

Experiments with aluminium as q
substitute for paper are now under way
in France. 1t is we'll known that the
paper used today in the manufacture of
books is not durable.
1t is now possible to roll aluminium
into sheets four-thousandths Of an inch
in thickness. in which form it weighs
less than paper. By the adoption Of
suitable machinery these sheets can be
made even thinner still and can be used
for book and writing paper. The metal
will not oxidize, is practically fire aud
water proof, and is in%destructible by
the jaws of worms.

a New Railway in Montana.

The completion of the Northern Pa
citic Ry.. from White Hall. Mont. to
Twin Bridges, Mont, IL distance of
twenty sin miles, opens up to both the
miner and farmer the limitless re-
sources OF the famous Jefferson Valley.
rich both in the quantity and quality
of its mineral deposits and i'll the fer
tility of its soil which for farming is
equal to any in Montana. The three
rivers which enter the valley separate
ly but unite before going very far. fur
nish an abundance of pure water for
all the present and future needs of the
valley.
Twin Bridges is situated in the north
western corner of Madison county at
the head of the beautiful Jefferson
Valley. On either hand are mountain
ranges stretching away in the distance:
here the contentmcnt and freedom OF
the farmers life is contrasted with the
business activity of the miners voca-
ton: to the right the eye beholds herds
of cattle and horses grazing on grass
covered hills while here and there the
miner is hard at work extracting from
the earth its precious metals.
just ut present the mining industry
is most prominent gold being the
principal metal taken from the ground,
but with the Northern Pacific COM
pleted and in operation to Twin Bridg-
es, the farmer and miner alike will
prosper beyond anything heretofore
possible.
To the owners of mines the railway
will be of inestimable value andthe in.
fiuX of capital and consequent intro
duction OF cheaper and more modern
mining methods, will be a Godsend to
numberles miners who have hundreds
of tons of low grade ore that could not
before be handled with profit owing to
the expense of hanling to the railway
by wagon.
AS a place of residence this valley
has found favor with many of Mon.
tana's prominent people and the num-
Der of pretty little towns with their
comfortable homes, scattered here and
there, bear evidence of its popularity.

1t has been demonstrated at the

One hundred pounds Of it contains3.3
