3. The anticipations that have been enter
tanned q to the revival of business on the
opening of the mining season are scarcely
being realized. There are considerable
quantities of gold dust being brought into
our bankers and assay officers, but currency
continues scarce and the only hope of re-
lief seems to lie IN the adjustment Of the
difficulty that exists between the bankers
and Wells, Fargo & Co. Until this is
brought about improvement In money mat
tiers will be necessarily very slow. The
rush to the new discoveries on Cedar Creek
has somewhat thinned out our population,
but it is not likely they will all find en-
ployment there, and it Is probable that
great many who left Helena will be glad
enough to return in few weeks There
caanot be said to be much activity in the
grocery market The stocks of al staple
articles are full, and prices are very much
the same Is last quoted. Only three of our
leading dealers are bringing full stocks.
Others appear satisfied to replenish here or
to order by railroad according to their wants.

duce letter postage to two cents, and this,
Notwithstanding the expenses of the De-

were t74l, 46e s5 In excess Of receipts, and
&s,eoo. 900 were paid the P. O. by the Treas.

tributed wholly to increased business. FL.
Their the recent lettings have been at won

times - much - the Treasury paid for car
rying genuine frsnked matter. II Is true
too that In England In 1893 tho frauked
matter of the Kingdom amounted 10 30 per
cent OF oil letters carried. This abuse r.
suited In the abolition Of the Thanking priyi
lego and tho reduction Of postage to ono
