LINT.-As it goes very hard with the Re
pubhcans of Butte to reach their pockets for
the relief of our wounded soldiers, suppose they
start lint scraping society. That will cost
them no more than it did to brawl their patri-
otism on the streets prior to the election, and
would exactly suit our stingy old Republican
srandames. A shame upon the idleness of
Butte, when every other portion of the State
is contributing to the relief of the brave volun-
teers who are wounded and dying for the
preservation of the glorious American Union.
