In the article given elsewhere b munich
pal matters, when We state that the Council
has made poor selectiotis for municipal ON
cers, we need scarcely state that we make no
reference to the ability Of those gentlemen.

At the Firemens' meeting last, Wednesday
evening it was decided by an almost unani-
nous vote to incorporate the Fire Company.
A committee appointed for the purpose was
directed to employ a lawyer to draw the up
articles of incorporation which are to be sub
mitted to the Brigade for action At the next
regular meeting, the first Wednesday in
August. The committee was also directed
to revise the bylaws with a view of suggest
ing any changes which may be deemed advi-
sable. 4srr ..T .g.f Esgs 4 N.

The Butte race track is in excellent condi-
ton, and a good race is expected for the first
Of August, when Vantilburg's General Knox
and Murray's Cesar will trot for $1,000 a
side. This is a private match, still fully as
much interest is taken in the approaching
event as in any one of the races to come off
on the same ground a month later under the,
auspices of the West Side Racing Meeting.
Many strangers will be in town the latter
part of next week. The theatrical troupe
might find it to their advantage to remain
until after the race.
The logs were delivered on the ground last
week for the barn and stage-station which
Gilmer & Salisbury are providing for their
direct Helena Il Butte line about to be put on
the Boulder road. This road is in ~frst-rate
condition, barring the ~unevenness Of the new
ground and a few stumps which could easily
be removed. Now that the advantages of
this road are at length recognized and &C
k~novledged, we hope the people Of Helena
and Butte will enter a vigorous protest should
the attempt ever be made TO Withdraw from it
the. daily mail service new in operation be-
tween those two points. .sa eHs 81 ~ llsa Il

At the last meeting of the City Council the
time allowed for replacing stove pipes. with
brick fues on houses within the city limits
was extended twenty. days from the, 18th.
This, it is said. is the last stretch of Alder
manic clemency, and it will be best for our
citizens to observe the provisions of the fire
ordinance. Whatever may be the opinion
entertained IS to the constitutionality of some
Of our city ordinances, there is not the slight
est doubt that the City Council is fully en-
powered to make such q regulation in pro-
yiding against the danger Of tire. The fire
ordinance is valid. It may even be found a
little binding by those who feel like testing
its legality. 4 II
Large supply Of New Hats just received at
Miss Henrietta Monroe, the fair elocution-
ist and i~mpersonator, is announced to give
readings at Butte on this and to-morrow eve
nings. Without re-entering upon the discus
sion OF Miss Monroe's accomplishments,
strictly as All artist, we,may at least state that
she is the possessor of qualities which make
an evening passed in attendance at her enter
tainment q most enjoyable treat, particularly
those who admire comic representations
exquisitely rendered. Through training aanld
by the birth-right of talent the young lady is
far in advance of any other delineator of the
comic aspects1of life that ever appeared on
the stage, at Butte. o. 6rt 81 latleG 1
