Mr.. Graham stated the purpose Of
the meeting to be the desire to form
a permanent organization.
Major Borchardt was elected tenn
p0rary chairman, and MIR. Graham,
temporary secretary. A permanent Or
ganlzation was then called for.
Sheriff Johnson proposed that the
temporary organization be considered

Of one year. The motion was seconded
and carried unanimously.
The president was called upon Tor
remarks, to which he responded in q
clear and intelligent manner. He laid
stress upon the importance Of 2 thor

ton of any organization Of this ma

days of Montana This history would

include the account Of the first in
their early struggles and hardships in
making way for the settlement of a
belt of land, which, but a few years
ago considered both sterile and bar
rem, has now proven beyond question
to be the bonanza belt. 1t would also
tell of the spanning of our continent
by a railroad, the energetic manage
ment of which left but short dis
lance to be completed before the gold
en- spike could be driven, uniting all
of that country which Horace Greeley
had reference to when he tmmortalized
his name by advising young men to
go to it. This railroad wiped out the
American frontier, which our Pilgrim
Fathers, but short time ago, founded
on the shores of the Atlantic, and
which has so rapidly advanced west

the American pioneer,
Here the gentlemen were thanked
by the president for the honor con-
ferred upon him in placing him at the
head of an organization whose every
member had held his rifle for many
years, always ready to protect fell
oW-wayfarer and whose bacon was
shared to the rind by camp followers.
Mr.. Graham was then called on for
remarks, and in a Suave and easy
manner, he stated that in the spring
of 1876 his residence was st. Paul,

to Kentucky as a Citizen Inspector,

commander, for the purchase of BOZ
horses, to be used in the expedition
planned against the hostile Sioux in
the Yellowstone country. On compile
ton of his duty, he met Mr.. Charles
Brown NOW present., who had Just
returned from the scene of the Custer
battle, who advised him to push for
ward to the front, describing the Vel
lowStone valley in more glowing terms
than did ever Ponce-de-Leon picture
TO the queen of Spain the beauties OF
Florida. This advice was taken, and on
the Goth day of August, 1876, the good
steamboat Carroll landed above the
mouth of Powder river, with Mr.. Ora
ham as a passenger, and bearing the
name of Charles w. Savage on heI
log.
Mr.. Graham here claimed to rank
MIR. Savage as an old-timer from the
fact that he sat at the bow of the
boat when it landed, while MIR. Savage
securing the first boiled shirt that ever
appeared in the valley.
Someone had said to Mr.. Graham
that it was generally supposed that he
had come here for his health. This as
sertiOn was strenuouSly denied.
Here in the immediate vicinity was
found the grandest military cavalcade
ever arrayeQ In battle against the hos
tile Indians of our country under COM
mand of General Terry. 1t included
portions Of General Crooks command,
the Fifth infantry under Colonel Miles,
parts of the I'D infantry and of the
18th. and Sixth infantry, the entire
regiment of the Second cavalry under
Colonel Bracket, and the remnant of
the Seventh cavalry, which about go
days before had been so cut in battle
with the Indians. These were grouped
together with bands of scouts and de-
tachments of other troops and lay
here at rest awaiting definite orders
and believing that their Sojourn in
the land would be of short duration.
Mr.. Charles Savage (now PRESENT.
was the first to unofficially inform
General Terry and his staff of the de-
termination of the secretary of war,
to house and place in cantonment
troops at the mouth of the Tongue river
and near the junction of the Little
and Big Horn rivers.
Official information did not reach
General Terry until camp was broken
and he had completed one days march
toward Bismarck, Dakota territory,
when sealed instructions reached him
by the hands of Texas Jack" a scout
Orders were issued from the saddle to
General Gibbon to make cantonment,
leaving part of his cavalry at a place
designated as Post No. 2" now known
as Fort Custer, and for Colonel Miles

~ uring 1910 the unusually large
number of people coming into
eastern Montana bid fair Ia
submerge the few who had
come to that section during
the days Of the covered wagon, the
bull team and the stern-wheeled river
steamboat. A movement was started in
Miles City, during that year, with the
view of forming and maintaining
society of all those who had arrived
in the eastern part of Montana prior
to the advent of the Northern Pacific
railroad which entered Montana in
November, 1881.
A general call was issued by the
Yellowstone Journal, Miles Citys lar
gest newspaper, published by Col. Sam
Gordon, for such action on the part
of all concerned as would result in
A roster was opened at the office OF
that newspaper, and those interested
were asked to sign.
About 100 signatures were secured,
which seemed to be the best that
could be done at a period nearly 30
years after the coming of the railroad.
Many found they were excluded
from joining the association because
they had arrived during the same year
as the iron horse, although at a time
when Montana was still Wild-when
it was yet thickly populated by the
buffalo and hostile Indian. These
persons felt that they were really
pioneers, and in the minds Of many
they we're considered as such. They did
not take very kindly to their exclusion,
and the movement for the organiza-
ton Of the Society Of Pioneers OF
eastern Montana languished for the
by many to be the first attempt TO
organize the Society of Pioneers Of
Eastern Montana, but that idea was
a mistake-that society was formed
later.
A society known as 1.-THE Old Set
tiers Association Of the Yellowstone
Valley had been formed as a perm
anent organization, and officers elected
at Miles City in January, 1898
years prior to the movement started
by the Yellowstone Journal. The fol-
lowing article which appeared in the
columns of the weekly Yellowstone
Journal in early January, 1882, is
taken as authority for the foregoing
Old Timers Meet
Pursuant to a call given in the
Journal under date of the holidays,
twelve gentlemen assembled at the
Office Oh y. y. 0lduali dJ & . M,
Jan. l, and repaired to the residence
of A. H. Van Vlierden, Esq, where
a temporary, and afterward perma-
nent organization was formed. After
the compliments of the season had
been passed in a hearty manner, and
a truly old time greeting extended to
the host, the Bakers dozen" aug
mented to that number by the add
ton Of Mr.. Van Vlierdon, came to order !
under the call of Mr.. Graham. The

Livingston Masons
Acquire Home Site

The last remaining corner in the
heart Of the Livingston business dis
trict, directly across from the Elks'
home on South Second street, has been
purchased by the Livingston Masonic
association, and the organization hopes
to construct a four-story building on
the site within the next year.
The building was acquired by the
association from the Miles Land and
Investment company. The consideration
involved in the deal was not disclosed.
The property includes three 25-foot
lots, and frontage facing Second street,
and extending back to the alley.
