Grit.
It is a slang term, but ono
passing into tho language of our
common life. When a boy with
out any irreligious spirit. I print
ed the word in tho margin of a
page of my Bible, and against
tho text. "Quench not tho spirit.
Prove all things; hold fast to
that which is good." Grit, Fred,
is another form of sincerity, and
a handy word for the concept
Self Reliance.
If. Fred, you will take your
Carlylo down from tho sholf, and
turn to the Lectures on Heroes,
Johnson, you will find a splon
did example of grit. I will
quote, "As for Johnson, I have
always considered him to be by
nature, ono or our great English
souls. . .One remembers always
that story of tho shoes at Oxford;
tho rough, seamy faced, raw
boned collogo servitor stalking
about, in winter season, with
his shoes worn out; how tho
charitable gentleman commonor,
secretly places u now pair at his
door, and the raw-boned sorvi
tor lifting them, looking at them
near, with his dim eyes, with
what thought pitches them out
or the window! Wot feet, mud.
frost, hunger or what you will,
but not beggary. We cannot
stand beggary! Rude, stubborn
self help here: a wholo world of
squalor, rudeness, confused mis
ery and want, yet of nobleness
and manfulness withal. It is a
type of tho man's life, this pitch
ing away of the shoos. An orig
inal man not a second hand,
borrowing or begging man. Let
us stand our own basis, at any
rate! On such shoes as wo our
selves can get. on frost and mud,
if you will, but honesty on that."
Hore is splendid grit. It ro
minds one of Beethoven's con
stantly reiterated, "Man, help
thyself!" or Confucius' "Use the
light within to guide you."
You will find many men, Fred,
when you know the world, who
are little other than parasite?
and who have actuully lost tho
knack of providing for them
selves. Their sole idea of pro
gress is to get through tho world
by hanging on to some one, pas
sing, like a sheep tick, from one
host to another, entirely without
other than egotistic caro for
quustions of social life, and pos
sessed of a cold-hearted inuiffer
once for the weal or woo of those
who have served them. They
entirely lack the grit to earn
their own living, and yet have
an entire lack of appreciation of
kindness done them. A little
adversity sends them to swell
tho ranks of the tramp army,
and if intellectual insanity does
not soon claim them pauperism
will be their destiny. Impress,
Fred upon the mind of every
man. whosoever he may be, you
may meet, that a little good
sound productive labor is as nec
essary to the moral man as din
ner to the physical. Work is tho
condition of existence in this
world, and he who has not the
grit to do a little is useless 'in
this world, and should try the
next. An inviolable law of the
cosmos is that he who will not
put his hand to tho world's work
should not be allowed to put his
mouth to the world's bread.
I remember, when at college,
a set of boys becoming so onam
oied of study that morning, noon
and night was devoted to mental,
moral and mutual improvement.
une evening a proiossor was in
vited by thorn to take tho chair
at a debate upon somo queer
psychological puzzle. At tho
close of the evening tho profes
sor complimented tho boys upon
their work, but remarked scath
ingly that much of their senti
mentality was shallow cant. Ho
then very seriously said: "And
boys although it is vory laudable
to cultivate tho artistic tempera
ment, I would impress upon you
fellows tho importance of some
work ot the hands. I note with
regret that the old pigeon house
is a melancholy wreck, and allow
me to obsorvo that a pigeon
house built by the eight mem
bers of this psychological socioty
would bo useful as well as novel.
Try it boys. 'Whatsoever thy
hand llndoth to do, do it with all
thy might.' You have tho grit
to tackle metaphysical knots,
just show your grit in tackling
physical knots. Learning with
out thought is labor lost; thought
wltnout labor is perilous." And
tho pigeon house was built.
Weadmire grit in a Columbus,
a Pizarro. a Cortez, a Cromwell,
a Washington, -and a littlo
thought would teach us in what
tho grit luy, nothing else but
self reliance. Each ono was pos
sessed of a sublime confidence in
himself. Each refused to iinl
tutoand dospito tho notiotiB of
his neighbors porsistod in going
ahead. Thatisgr't. Fred. Ar
bitrary dogmas or hosilating
negations novor vet made a hero.

mo, tlie talent of success is

Helena, Mont. The almost
worldwide movement for tho
colonization of tho broad expanse
of Western territory as yet tin-
dotted by homes of settlers, is
becoming more and moro definite
ovory day Several movements
are now on foot which will bring
hundreds of thousands of homo
seeks into various Northwestern
States.
Wyoming is recoiving her ful
share Tho Cody Salsbury canai
project, in Big Horn county,
Wyoming, is a gigantic project,
in which Colonel W. F. Cody,
bettor known as "Buffalo Bill,"
is interested. It contemplates
taking water out of the Shoshone
River near the Colonel's town of
Cody! and carrying it tifty miles
in a ditch, to cover about 2-15,000
acres of good agricultural land,
now barreu for the want ol wa
ter. Another equally glgcnlio pro
ject of Wyoming coloi.izittion is
that of a nuir. bor of bankers of
The Hague, Holland, who will
establish a colony of Boors and
Holland Dutch on a tract of !I00,
000 uoios just secured in the val-
loy of tlie Green River, in Sweet
Water County. The soil hero is
especially adapted for sugar
beet culture, and a large retinory
will be established.
Montana has no such vast
tracts of arid land to bo sottled,
but the Slate Land Commission
lias this year pursued a success
ful policy of auctioning off the
Stalo land grants to bona tide
settlors- In this way $1100,000
has been added to tho endow
ment funds of the various Stato
schools. Many hundreds of
thousands of acres yet remain
to be disposed of, the sale so far
having only been conducted in
two countios.

handle a bigger homo-seekers'
traflio the coming spring than
over before. Each road is plan
ning for at least 10,000 in tho
month of February Last win
ter and spring tho two roads
brought 115,000 settlors into tho
Northwest. The companies
now have their immigration
agents at work throughout the
East. Farmers in various parts
of Montana have been asked to
send samples of what they can
