To the Editor Of The Times
You stated the other day that the
skip-stop has been tried and the PEG
pie don want it On the surface,
this appears TO be a true statement,
but the skip-stop is Ike anything else.
II must be sold on its merits. During
the time when the skip-stop was be.
ing discussed. the folks" were told il
saved Juice" for the street car com.
pauy. etc Now the folks" are not
Tarticularly concerned about what il
will save for the company no more
than they are concerned about an
article that pays the merchant q large
profit What the folks want 70 know
iS--what will It do for us? S. II the
street car company would tell the PEG
pie through paid advertisements that
the skip.stop would save them Uhe
straphanEers fifteen 10 twenty min
utes a day and that a walk of one
block before or after a meal would
benefit their health. etc. they might
get somewhere. Indianapolis viii
adopt the skip-stop when the folks he.
gin to realize that IL helps them.

HOW SIX GOOD MEN, NOW ALL BUT FORGOTTEN,
SAWED THE STATE OF MONTANA FIVE MILLIONS

For more than fifty years Martin
Barrett, of Horse Prairie, has been a
resident of Beaverhead county. With
the development Of that section OF
Montana he has made a considerable
competency, and enjoys the confl-
dence of a wide circle of friends. But
there are few who knew that he once
did the state of Montana a great ser
vice, which up to the present, has
been unheralded and unrewarded.
In 1878 he was elected as a repre-
sentative of Beaverhead county to the
territorial council, a post that cor
responds with that of state senator.
It was a session of which the rail-
roads were endeavoring to get sub
sides and tax exemption measures
authorized. The Northern Pacific
al asking for 100000, and the
Union Pacific through the Utah
Northern, a very considerable sum-.
Governor Potts, who favored the rail-
roads, had called the legislature to-
gether to pass these measures for
their benefit. All of the prominent
in the state, and all the news
papers, with the single exception OF
the Virginian City M%adisonian, then
edited by Tom DeArmond, favored
the railroads.
The railroads maintained large
Hobbies at Helena in an effort to force
through this legislation. They en-
tertained the early day statesmen
lavishly. Those they could not win

turn. Two members were offered as
much as $4,000 each If they would
come owe to the railroads. They
were told that Jay Gould, then the
titular head of the Union Pacific, did
not have money enough to buy such
men as Barrett. They would not re-
turn, but remained until such a time
as they were sure a few more legisla-
tors had been won over to the side of
the people. Then they went back to
the capital and voted down the
measures.
Helena was all for the railroads at
the time, because it meant railroad
connections for that city. So these
who were trying to saw the
money we're not very popular
there. But the railroads were built
into the state without subsidies and
the state was not saddled with a
great bond issue for their benefit.
That is the story of how six men,
whose names are all but forgotten,
saved the state Of Montana at least
SIS, 100000.
