A few fair days of this week have
been the saving OF thousands OF
pounds of cotton. AT one time the
prospect of gathering even half crop
this season was gloomy indeed. The
wet weather has certainly injured the
seed from the early pickings, which
we hope the farmers VIII remember
at next planting time. Too much
neglect of caution is shown in the
purchase of cotton seed, and conse-
quently many families are kept in
poverty from poor crops when by a
selection of good seed good crops
would be produced and money real
lied. Now n the time to get seed
for next years planting; buy the
seed and haul them home and take
care Of them, or in spring purchase
good seed from the coast of Georgia
and South Carolina. The caterpill-
ers are doing much damage in some
localities.-L0ke Citv Reporter.

Council Meeting.

Pursuant to call the City Council met
last evening at the office of the Police Magis-
trate. Present, the Mayor and a quorum of
Aldermen. The business transacted was first,
to pass a city election law secondly, to adopt
an ordinance providing for a system of city
taxation, and thirdly, a conference held with
the firemen's committee on the subject of
building an engine house. The city election
ordinance will be published tomorrow. The
ordinance relating to city taxes provides that
the City Council shall convene in regular
meeting on the second Monday of October for
the purpose of levying a city tax, not to ex-
coed three mills Oh the dollar. The tax lists
prepared under this levy will be returnable on
the second Monday in November. On the
the third Monday in November the Council
will meet as a Board of Equalization, and on
the first of january all unpaid taxes become
delinquent. The conference with the fire
committee resulted in the appointment of a
Council committee consisting of Aldermen

Club Meeting,

At q business meeting of Social Dancing
Club, held last evening, the following subjects
were disposed of: Seven new members were
admitted, bringing the membership up to As,
and leaving only five more vacancies to be
filled. The constitution, by the necessary two
thirds vote was amended to make the initiation
fee SIS, instead of $50. A resolution was vot-
ed that no member be admitted to any Of the
Club receptions until after he will have re-
ceived his ticket of membership, and paid
the fee also, that the names of all members
who will not have paid their initiation fee be-
fore the first of November be stricken from
the roll and their places declared vacant.
The first hop of the season takes place to-
morrow night.

Times at Glendale are reported as being re-
markably brisk. Now Tat the camp is pro-
vided with q daily mail it will cut something
more of a figure before the world, and its rate
of growth will be correspondingly increased.
A gentleman connected with the Hecla Co.
lately informed lis that as soon as a contem-
plated enlargement of the works is effected,
the mines alone will give employment to a
thousand men. 1t is said that the work of
making this enlargement will be commenced
this fall; completed early next spring. Even
as it is, in Glendale and Lion City together
more men are steadily WORKING for wages than
at Butte. With the coming of their long
looked-for daily mail, we hope our Glendale
friends will not fail to let us hear from them
occasionally.

High-Priced Real Estate.

The barometer to indicate Il towns pros
perity is the price of real estate on its bust
ness streets. Accepting this as a sign it will
certainly be admitted from the prices realized
yesterday at the administrators sale Of the
Ford estate, that the indicator points unmis-
takably to Fair - as the prediction for
Butte's financial future. The property sold
yesterday was a one-half interest in the old
building in which the postoffice was kept
during DR.. Ford's time, and in the lot it
stands on. As for the building, to any BUSH
ness man needing the lot it is worth less than
nothing, since it must be removed before any
thing deserving tie name of 4 business
house can be erected on the ground. The lot
is is 2OSl 100 feet, and Of this small piece of
ground an undivided une-half~i interest brought
the handsome price of Sl,sIo, or Sls7.5O for
each foot of frontage ON Main street. We
very much doubt if IA higher price has ever
been paid in any bonn .fhe real estate tran
%sartion, anywhere between Omaha and Nir-
einia City. Nevada.

Accident to n Prominent Citizen.

Mr.. H. T. Brown of the MINER, on return
ing from Philipsburg, brings news OF a very
serious accident which occurred last Friday
night to the Hon. E. 3. Waterbury, of that
place. While returning from a visit to some
of his mines in the neighborhood, driving a
single horse in a dog cart, Mr.. Waterbury had
the mishap to drive off the grade at a point
where the d~eclivity afforded a fine chance for
a good roll. The horse was either killed
outright in the fall. or else his death resulted
from his struggles in endeavoring to escape
from the unnatural position in which he was
left by the tumble. At all events he was
found next morning, still in the shafts, but
stone dead, and lying prone IN his back. Mr..
Waterbury was probably stunned in the fall,
as his wounds were found to consist princi-
pally of cuts inc bruises about the head.
When found next morning he was iinmedi-
alAly taken home and medical assistance sum-
moned. The friends who brought him in
were of the opinion that his injuries were not
dangerous, but the surgeon had not reported
up to the time of Mr.. BIS departure.

Last night the regular monthly meeting of
the Butte Fire Brigade was held at the old
school house, with a fair attendance. When
the meeting was called to order Mr.. McMur-
phey, Brigade Secretary, stated that the Com
pany's funds now on hand amountedto $1163,
of which 1858 proceeded from the special fire
tax levied on Butte tow property under the
Territorial statutes. He further proceeded
to state that the first payment upon the engine,
amounting to $1,000, would be due upon its
arrival, as well as a railroad freight bill of
about $3.50. Also,that arrangements must be
made whereby the notes of the Brigade could
be issued to the Silsby Company for the bal
ance of $1,000 to be paid in annual Install
ments. Forthe accomplishment of this latter
object it was decided to incorporate the Brig
ade. A committee to report at a special meet
ing to be held next Saturday evening was
then appointed to make arrangements for in
cooperating. The necessity of providing a
suitable engine house for the coming steamer
being perceived, a committee consisting Of
Messrs. Bowes, McMurphey aud Steele, were
appointed to confer with the City Council,
then in session, to see if the city would not
assist in procuring a lot and building the
house. The result of this conference is given
elsewhere. No further business coming up
the meeting adjourned until Saturday at
1870 p. m.

Mineral Specimens from Butte.


Yesterday morning we were shown some
large boxes of specimens piled in the ware
house Of Al. Davis and awaiting shipment
to the East. The specimens came from the
Alice, Lexington and Gagnon claim, also
from W. A. Clark's claim on the Original
lode. One of the boxes was directed to the
Smithsonian Institute, another to President
Hayes, the rest to Mr.. Donaldson, of the
Land Commission, whose recent visit to Butte
has been reported. The ponderous bars-or
pigs, as we heard a pilgrim call them the
other day-of silver which leave Butte by
almost every outgoing Overland coach form
the best and most reliable of all specimens,
taking their number into account, by which
to judge of the richness of the Butte mines.
Still a few pieces Of ore running from 900 to
1900 ounces OF silver to the ton, will do no
harm If placed in Eastern cabinets as repre-
sentatives of Montana's mineral wealth.

The proposal to welcome Grant at Salt
Lake City with a grand blowout, patterned
as closely as possible after That of San Fran
cisco, has elected a decided protest from an
uncomprOmising Gentle who gives cause in
a letter to the Tribune in the following out
spoken terms:
EDS. Tribune: At the risk of being consid-
cred ultra, | must enter my protest against
the Gentiles giving General Grant an Grafton
should he visit this city. No true Gentle in
Utah can forget, or .forgire, his removal of
that honest, upright, ~incorruptible, fearless
Judge, Mexican. He struck him dow while
he was performing his duty to the Govern
ment, add labOring ZealOusly for the cause of
justice, edecency and good morals in Utah !;
and that, too, without even allowing him to
he heard as against his accusers and defamers.
This was a blunder, if not a crime, and one
of the worst that Giant committed during
his second term i'll the White House.
1t is not saying too much to affirm that had
Judge Mexican been properly supported by
Grants administration, Notwithstanding de-
fective laws, polyganly would have been
scotched. if not killed, before his second
term of office had expired. But his base re-
moval gave il new lease of life to tina: mon-
strors evil, and from that time to the present
the Mormon Church has constantly grown in
power and arrogance, while the Gentle cause
here has grown weaker. and less effective for
good.
No, MessrS. Editors, it is the Mormons, and
not the Gentlles of Utah, who should receive
Grant with demonstration of joy.
