Written for T he M ontanian . CHOTEAU AND THE VALLEY OF THE TETON. BY RKV. WM. HALL. The Teton valley has an altitude high; On its west are her mountains piled up near the sky, On its east are her table lands stretched far and wide, Grazing vast herds, whence our wants are supplied. Down through this valley a river doth go, ' Whose waters in high-tide her banks over flow. In this beautiful stream there abound many fish, ' Which make for the Choteauains a highly prized a * ,ish. / On each side this river much pasturage is seen, 7 Clothed in winter with snow and in summer with/ green. Here the elk and the deer and the bear had their/; home, And long years ago used the Indian to roam. :j In the north of Montana this valley is found, / And here the most beautiful sceneries abounf/ 1 ; The snowy capped peaks in the distance behf!/,ld, Whose mineral resources are rich I am told.,/ * • * 7 ’Tis here, from these mountains, our fuel < loth come T warm us when cold and brighten our /home; 1 . furnish material for building oar to ¿ n , And otlitr essentials which bring uii rf inown. The city of Choteau is located w^ell, And what be its future, none living i ; » / n tell, When up go her grist mills and dow n go her mines, And way ’cross her prairies run rail’ way lines. H e r natuarl resources, so great in fexte «nk, Show Nature to build up this country B/as bent, For here are accessible sources of pow efr Which assure her of greatness at no d i stant hour. Our lands in extent are enomous and fair And promise to thousands who may s iettle there Sufficient of income to warrant their stay, And make them quite wealthy at so me future day. Some miles to the east of the city there go The “ Glendora Ditch” with its gi ;eat water-flow, Which covers some thousands of acres of land, And thus makes that country a boon in our hand. Here hundreds of people may s «jttle and find A harvest of prospects so suite-.'! to mind. Which in a short period will g rtatly augment The wealth of the city to var ¡ou& extent. * Notice to Stockmen—Es trays.
