N ). 2 KIND WORDS For the Progress From the Hele- na Independent. MONTANA WEEKLY PAPLRS Are Doing a Good Work for the Upbuilding of the State. Helena Independent, July 13: It was with great pleasure that The Independent published yes- terday morning an article on the mineral resources of Jefferson county, written for the Portland Oregonian by Mr. a . L. Hughes, editor of the Basin Progress. We believe his article will ha of benefit to Montana; for all such articles are beneficial when as well written as that of Mr- Hughe3. It is a most ho • eful si when we fin '.1 the newspaper Men of the state giving a part of their time to such work. As a rule the .editors of weekly papers have but little leisure time to write for other papers than their own. There is no more industrious man, ner one. who is worked harder, than. the editor of a weekly paper who does his work thoroughly an 1 consci- entiously. Nor is it necessary kr a man to go outside his own paper tô do good work for the state, as Mr. Hughes is showing in his own ' , riper. it - ia not a matter of politics, but inenly finding out and publishing the -best and the most good me ws that the space of the paper will permit. Soins of the Montana weekly and semi-weekly papers are doing excellent work in this direction. They are alloWing no oppirtunity to slip by which they can . Say: a good word for Montana's r:souse es and thus advertise the - stout'-'. Paiers that do this are not only -14neficial to the stâti at large; but are continual advertisement for their places of publication,' and thus place their communities per- manently in debt to thetn. We - hinge being equel a man who wishes .. to im- migrate to Montana will be more inclined to go where there i . 4 a live newspaper that takes an relive part in advertising the resourem of the whole state and especially its own locality. . The Union hotel is now bidding and is in a position to ask for the patmnage of the entire public. Traveling men will find the Union hotel the hest in - the town; the rooms are just refurnisheeand no better can be had. -' e Advertised Letters.
