military post In 1877. There were few
events to distinguish this fort, as its es-
tablishment postdated the era Of its actual
necessity in its particular location.
Fort AssinnibOine
The largest military reserve in the Un-
tied States, located but a short distance
site Of old Fort AssinnibOine. The sizeable
and substantial post was brought into be-
ing to furnish protection against the Sioux,
Crees and other tribes then ranging along
the Canadian boundary. Its construction
was started May 8, 1879 and, when COM
pleted, it was by far the finest military
post ever established in the West. There
were 80 sets Of officers quarters and quar-
ters for ten companies of men. The post
hospital was a mammoth structure in the
center Of the group Of buildings, and on.
either side OF 1t were the post chapel, and
a building used for gymnasium, bowling
alley and theatre. The parade ground was
1000 feet IN length and 400 feet wide. The
Octangular space including the buildings,
which were all constructed Of brick made
near the fort site, was $500 feet long and
LOO feet wide. The assemblage Of struc-
lures included the post trader store OF
BrOadwater, McCullOch & Co., and a fully
equipped school for the children Of Offie-
ers and enlisted men.
1t was at Fort AssinnibOine that General
John j. Pershing, then a Lieutenant under
General Miles, was stationed for several
standing and the fort site is now utilized
by the Montana State college as the North
Montana Experiment Station.
Fort Maglnnis I'm judith Basin
Central Montana-that section now
known as the Judith Basin-waS not with
out its military post. In 1888, Captain
Dangerfield Park and two companies Of
the Third Infantry established Fort Magin-
mis-. The location selected was about three
miles north from the original Granville
Stuart ranch on Ford creek, near the Judith
mountains. 1t contained a reserve Of about
! 500 acres. There were few events that dis
/ tinguish the career of this fort, and it has
| been abandoned for many years.
! In the eighties a camp known as Canton
ment Porter was established below Glen
dive near Terry's Landing, and was a
protective measure for the beenfit of trav-
| elers in that section. This was but one OF
| the many military camps that have been
mentioned in MOntana's history, but which
cannot be listed among the regular es-
| tablished military forts.
Fort Harrison, located few miles east Of
Helena, can hardly be classed among the
| frontier pests Of the state. 1t was estab-
lished in the nineties after Montana had
been admitted to statehood, and frontier
conditions had ceased to prevail. Fort Har-
rison is now MOntana's military headquar-
ters. It is at present garrisOned by the
165th Infantry; and it's reserve Is the train
ing ground for Montana's National Gnard.
