E. P. SMITH, who has been undergoing
treatment for rheumatism at the White Sui

turned home this week. On starting home
ne was feeling pretty well, but the severe
trial of walking for some distance to cross
the snow banks on the..range quite exhaust
ed him. We hope he may soon regain
strength.

WE ARE panied to learn Of the death of
Newton Smith, eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. Bar Smith, of the Missouri valley, which
occurred at Helena, March 9th. He was a
most promising young man, and it is sad
indeed to see him thus cut down just as
the realities of life were dawning upon him.
The bereaved family have our deepest SYM
pathy.
The county seat question is one that is
now agitating the people Of Meagher county.
AS they are supposed to know what they
really want and what is best in the premi-
ses, the independent has no advice to give"
Independent, March Fl.
"The Independent was favored yesterday
with a call from a gentleman of Meagher
county, who is undoubtedly well posted as
to the feeling in that county on the subject
of moving the county seat from Diamond
City to White Sulphur Springs, and he ex-
pressed the opinion that the removal will
be voted down by q large majority. The
prevailing sentiment is that the time has
yet arrived to locate the county-seat
permanently, and that the public interest
and convenience demand that when a change
shall be made it must be so located as to ac-
commodate the greatestnumber OF people,"
independent, March 29.
The last looks a little like our eotempo-
rary was departing somewhat from Its first
announced course.
This matters not to us no Vever, for If
there is any reason why the people of
Meagher county should not remove their
county seat from Diamond City to the White
Sulphur Springs, we should be happy to see
it produced, for we have yet to hear the first
substantial reason advanced. The well post
ed O. gentleman who visited the Independent
sanctum will find that he is a poor guesser
about the first Monday in May, and his
''large majority'' will grow beautifully
less" as the returns come in.
The prevailing sentiment among the prin-
cipal taxpayers of the county is that the
time has arrived for the location of the
county seat at a more central point, as the
public interest now demands. The fact is,
our people are getting tired of paying trib-
ute to Helena, and are determined to build
up a business center in their midst. The
White Sulphur Springs is the best CONNER
cial and geographical center that can be
found in the county, and our people have too
much intelligence to allow suchsa favorable
opportunity to pass uhimproved, for by ac-
cepting the conditions of the late act, a
courthouse is to be provided for five years,
and money enough subscribed to build suffi-
Gent rooms for county offices. If the coun-
ty-seat remains where it is, a court house
must be rented and buildings for county
offices will nave to be bought before two
years. Besides no one will deny but that
the move will be made two years hence, at
least las the bulk of the population of the
county will be east of the Belt range by thar
date if not at the coming election at which
time there is no provision as to halls and
private subscription.

AS WILL be seen by the annual statement
of our county clerk published a few weeks
since, Meagher county decreased her debt
So, $40, - last year, Notwithstanding the tax
levy for the year was Is mills, two mills
less than the previous, which speaks well
for the eficience and financial ability of our
clerk and commissioners. There is per-
haps no countNin the territory whose affairs
have been more j%udiciously managed than
that of Meagher. It is estimated that the
assessment roll will foot UP this year in the
neighborhood of ST, 200, OOG, and, though the
levy is only l6 mills, there is reason to be-
lieve that there will be a greater decrease OF
debt next year. And should the county
seat be removed to the White Sulphur
Springs the impetus it will give TO bus
mess and the confidence it will inspire war
rants the assumption of $500 900 or $500, 900
increas Sc in the assessment roll next year.
and should our county stear as clear of
criminal suits for the next few years as it
has during the past five, there is no doubt
but the tax levy will be reduced 2 mills each
year until it reaches a 10 mill levy, a consu-
nation devoutly to be wished by every tax
payer.

THERE are upwards of sixty thousand
head of sheep in Meagher county, all of
which were wintered through without hay,
and the entire loss will not exceed three
thousand head, and this is not due to any
scarcity of feed but to the scab which has
prevailed in an aggravated form in one or
two focks to which the loss has been prin-
cipally confined. A few hundred have per-
ished from smothering. This is by no
means a heavy loss when we consider that
there were upwards of 10000 head of dis
cas- ed and unacclimated sheep among the
number, a large portion of which were

WE invite the attention Of our readers to
the announcement elsewhere sot "a May
Party" to be given under the auspices of
the Diamond City hotel, May I'd. The sup
pers prepared by this hotel under its new
management have given eminent s~atisfac-
ton, and we are assured no pains will be
spared to make the coming party the event
of the season. The Helena string band, I'M
der Professors HeWins and Yeager, have
been employed to welcome the bright May
Queen with merry feet.
THE new drain in Whites gulch is repre-
sented to be progressing favorably. 1t has
been run about 100 feet since striking bed
rock, and it is proposed to make cross drifts
at an early day. How good the prospects
were we have not been able to learn. but we
understood that all concerned are much
pleased. This drain will be the means OF
developing several thousand feet of the
gulch, which, if as good as the other mines
in that gulch, will add many thousand to
the country's wealth.
