A- smooth Missouri editor worked a scheme on bis delinquent subscribers tbs other day. “ All toy subscribers but one have paid up in advance,” he wrote, and about a hundred, ashamed to be the only one, dropped in and settled up. Meandering aodlhfrom ColumbiaFalls the.Scout thid*week finds himself at a starting point at the north end of the beautiful Lake Blaine .whept ia.sitoated the pfctucesque home of Otto Hansen the shores of this magnificent body of water which is two miles long and a mils wide, neetiing right up against the Rockies with its beautiful margin of the finest kind of milling timber. Here gameTs^lentiful and it is an..ideal spot for the banter. The lake contains trout, black bass and whitefish in great abund ance. Hansen has a fine 100 acre farm and his wheat crop this season went bushels to the acre. He also rai many kinds of fruits and has fully demon strated the fact that grapes can- be suc cessfully grown in the Flathead. Black (limits'a re also growiug profusely at this place. Capt Wm Jenkins, a veteran of the 7th Pa., cavalry; has camped on the west side of this lake for a period of 16 years aod has 100 aciea of bis most excellent 140-acre farm under cultivation. His 16 year old son does most of the farming. His apple orchard is 16 years old and he has to keen the trees propped and tied up with ropes to keep them from, break ing down under their heavy load of fruit. On the opposite shore of the lake is the 17 acre farm of H J Branney and^hey have a code of signals by which they communicate across the lake. Mr. B. is an expert with the rod and line and rifle And besides being a successful farmer ia a successful trapper and hunter and a terror to the mountain Hen. .aod bear which are t^iite numerous in- that vicinity. A^cmvptry . paper tells of two little boys wbp S8«e«i their mother if they might pl»y store in the dining room. \Yes.' she replied, “ if yotudpn’ t make much noise.\ “ We’ll bequietabout it, said one. \W e ’ll be storekeepers that dfW’t advertise.” Every fanner boy wants to be a school teacher, every school teacher hopes to be an editor, every edit o f jroold like to be a banker, every banker Would like to be a trust magnate, and. every trnst magnate hopes some day to own. a farm and have, chickens and cow*, and pigs and horses to look after. So. we end whetf we begin. If you have an important part .to play in-, business life, remember ypn must dress up.Uj it. The shabby, the unshav en,, the unrefined can not rise above togAiocrity. They will find their place St'last in those situations where previous experience is required.” and where they age told that $100 per week ea^.be made.wiChout the slightest effort, knowledge or skill. Hqrq is eometljing that, wilj make all^reep; “ Tenderly she laid the silent, white form beside those that bad gone before. She made no outcrv, she did not weep. Such a moment was too precious to be spent in idle tears. Bat soon there came a time when it seemed aa if natnre input give way. She lifted her voice, atg^ cried loud and long. Iler erv was taken up by others who were near and it echoed and re-echoed over the grounds. Then suddenly ail was still. What the use of it all? She would lay another egg to-morrow. all. The Columbian office will move the first fit tlje coming week to the McCarthy building opposite Judge Carroll's place where it will remain .pending the atruction of a building on a site adjacent to the telephone central office, bavn’t altogether abandoned the good nyoes of the flat and the busineaa of town but find-it necessary to prepare for the coming winter. The snow lowering on the mountain tops reminds uSithat we had better get a building with dspre anddtindowa in it. The people of Glen, Mont., where lias existed a postoffice for a long time ljave a.righteous kick coming ovar the discon tinuation of that office by the postmaster ggneral since the establishment of the rural delivery from this place which does not extend ball way to Glen from Falls. The sturdy ranchers pioneers* that inhabit the fertile • along the banks, of the placid lake in the Glen neighborhood have to travel 25 miles over a rough iu order to gaia communication world and the taking service is an lnjust- enmmunity of frontier that they keenly feel. By all means the matter should be brought be fore tlie department in its proper light and a mail service restored to those Frum this place the Scout made a balloon of raw H od and bear skins and bis next Unding was at Whitefish. Here while viewing tbe town from the rail road grade he was startled-by a success ive bombardment ami while pondering 'bother it was a salute to his arrival or whether it was time to grab a root aad get away from a hostile force he was accosted by a stranger from whom he found out that it was only the regular daily operations of the townsite stump buster. After the scare was off he visit ed the Hotel-Whiteflsh, 0 A Wright A Co., managers. It ig a two story 50x50 building witltJ4 rooms- aad ’a fine bar with T J Alexander to do the seasoning. Tbe hotel is neatly equipped and the most excellent meals are daily served. From T C Paine, treasurer for the itownsite Co., a few itepi* concerning the townsite were gleaned. The company have about finished their new 34x60 feet building and it is very satislactory. The terms are easy and tlie prices range from $100'to MOO Ptir lot according to location. A lot will be donated-to all, church organizations and the Presby terians are the first to take advaoUge of tbe offer., Tbe telephone line to Colum bia Falls and Kaliapell will soon be in operation. It is now thonght that the laying of steel rails from Columbia Falls will commence about Nov. 15th and that the snort of the iron horse will be heard at Whitefish shortly afterward.
