the great parties adopted pretty much the

the repeal OF the resumption act.
The Republican Convention, held the

with "wild schemes of iniation, repudia'

as complete denial could be given by the
New York Democrats, it was given by the
Convention OF that party.
There was not the slightest show OF con-

puts up one Newman in opposition to Joe
johnston. Newman was chosen, so say the
friends OF Mr.. Chiles, because he has money
and will spend it. We are sorry for New
man, as it will be money spent for nothing.
He will certainly be defeated; but as his
money only consists Of promises to pay, we
suppose he cares not how much he spends.
Chiles might have furnished more money,
as it is only question Of breath. -Freder-

Fall of a Mountain.

Nearly every resident Of Montana,
says the Helena Independent, has
either seen or heard Of tie famous
Bear Tooth Mountain, the most prom
incnt landmark in Montana, II Is
visible from different points at u dis.
lance ranging from 40 TO 30 miles,
and is in full view from Helena and
the surrounding country The noun
tain is distant about 80 miles from
Helena, and stands like grim and
mighty sentinel at the end OF the
canyon known MS the Gate OF the
Mountain, through which flows the
Missouri River The Bear Tooth
was fully described as u wonderful
landmark OF the early explorers,
Lewis and Clalk. Iu all photographs
of the northern country the two tuSks,
rising black and grim hundreds OF
feet above the mountain, are the
peomlncat objects. The man tusk
remains looking lonely and isolated III
its grandeur.
Last Monday a party OF hunters,
vino were chasing game several miles
north of the Bear Tooth, observed a
rumb!ing sound aud u quaking Of the
earth, and, supposipg it was an earth
quake, and not noticing repetition OF
it, they soon forgot the occurrence,
and continued their chase until they
reached the Bears Tooth Here they
were astonished by the appearance Of
the eastern tusk. This was u per
pendicular mass OF rock aud earth
fully 500 feet high, 800 feet in cir
cumiereuce at its base, aud about $50
feet at its top. This immense mass
had become dislodged, and, coming
down with the speed Of an avalanche,
had swept through forest CT large
timbsrs for quarter Of " mile, en-
tirely dwelling it. The country
around Is now covered with a great
mass of broken trees and tons upon
tons Of rocks, many OF them as large
as n ordinary house.
