lions brought him to Miles City soon
after the occupation of the valley by
United States troops in the fall of
1876, which was co-incident with the
arrival of Colonel Miles and the Fifth
Infantry. In 1879 he deemed the
community that had congregated at
Miles City and Fort Keogh worthy of
a newspaper, and accordingly he
launched the Journal.
In the illustrated and historical
edition of the Yellowstone Journal,
published on September 27, 1900,
then edited and published by Colonel
Sam Gordon, dean of Montana news
paper men at the present time, the
following reference is made which is
significant from journalistic point
of view.
Wasn't Miles Organ
"Oldtimers maintain" writes Col
onel Gordon, "that the paper was
started as the personal organ of Gen.
Nelson A. Miles, at that time colonel
of the Fifth United States Infantry,
stationed at Fort Keogh, and that the
money that purchased the first equip

er, and others, restored the old well
to it's original depth and bound the
stones at the top rim with cement.
In 1878 the present site of Fort
Keogh was occupied. 1t is located
little more than mile from the loca-
ton of the original stockade. The
first buildings we're made of logs.
The barracks were occupied by the
troopers and commissary. From the
dwelling located at one corner of the
modious parade grounds, General
Miles issued his commands and sub
sequently directed all activities from
the headquarters building.
The importance of the fort was
recognized in the early history of the
development of southeastern Mon
tana. In July, 1883, the year pre-
ceding the meeting of the first annual
convention of the Montana stock
growers, the Miles City Daily Press,
published by Major Thompson P. Nc
Elrath, a newspaper man by here

McElrath who was part owner with
Horace Greeley of the New York
Tribune about the time the civil war
broke out, in a historical reference
to Fort Keogh, published the follow
