From Bannack.

EDITOR Posi-: There is but one sen>
timent prevailing among the Repubii-
cans of Beaverhead county, 10 wit /:
That they will stand by the call of the
Republican Territorial Committee, and
respond TO that call by sending six good
and true men To represent them in T. e
Territorial Convention TO be held on the
21st inst. at Helena, and convention
for that puopOse is to convene at Beav-
erhead the 5th inst. The call is signed
by A J. Smith, Chairman of the Repub-
liran Committee of Beaverhead County.
DEMOCRATIC TACTICS.
To-day the Hon. Thos. Watson and
Gen. Thompson. delegates to the Demo-
cratic Convention, departed for Helena.
We believe they are all strong Cava-
naugh men except Mr.. Joseph A.
Browne. who is Stapleton man. In
their primary meeting Mr.. Stapleton
carried every thing, but in their conven>
tion to nominate delegates, Mr.. Cavan~
augh's friends bad it their way. How
this unexpected change was brought
about we will let you guess. The Hon.
Sample Orr and Major Bruce were left
out in the cold by their friends. if they
had any. But Territorial Convention
| is mighty onssrtin" thing. and no
I
that body meets.
BANNACK DITCH COMPANY
A. j. Smith leaves on the 2nd with
his coach and four tor Helena.
Mr.. A F. Heath, n member sf the
| firm of Smith & Graeter has departed
for Ft. Benton to look after their goods
and OK train. This firm Is doing a
| splendid business. They have a large
interest in the Bannack Ditch aud Min>
ing Company. which, perhaps, owns the
most miles OF ditch and the most ex>
tenslve placer mines owned by any COM
pany in the Territory, and their mines
are paying regularly an ounce 20 the
/ hand. Mr.. A. F. Graeter. The other mem-
Der of Smith & Graeter, gives his rndi-
vided attention TO these mines.
PIONEER COMPANY YIELD, ETC.
The Pioneer Ditch CJmpany's new
ditch will be completed in about ten
/ days. This company, with a small head
OF water, is taking out regularly an
ounce 10 the hand. From the last in
formation that we can get, an ounce to
the hand is about the yield of our mines
and cannot be less If water holds ou,
for the season. We include Horse Prai.
rie mines in THE estimate. Al present
the supply of water is good; the recent
rains have helped. and there is but little
doubt of its holding out.
SMELLING.
The Derier-Fauld's furnace is smelt-
ing and cupelIing. and Mr.. Stapleton is
successfully running the Tootle & Leach
| furnace at Argenta. We have full
faith in Argentine and make the asser-
tion that ii silver ores of that district
won't pay TO smelt there is NO use OF
irving any other silver district yet 6is.
covered in this Territory. We believe
