DEEP MINING.

A recent number of the Mining RecieW
contains a very interesting article on "Ancient
and Modern Mining Engineering" from
which we gather the following data in regard
to deep mining: Twenty years ago thedecp-
est mining shaft IN the world reached only
about 1000 feet below the surface. The very
deepest was a metalliferous mine in Hanover
which had been carried down TO the depth Of
$500 feet below the surface. At the prerent
time the deepest perpendicular shaft in eXis-
tence is the .Alalbnrt in Bohemia-3,2SO feet.
1t is not known when this shaft was COM
back to ELI. While the Adalbert is the deep
est perpendicular shaft, there are two other
i0catitie< whore a greater depth has been at
tanned. One is III" Nocksalt boreh0le near
Spert2hyrI. not far from Berlin, in which, a
few wears ago, :, l"p'a Of 4.lI5 feet had been
attained; The "ly"r was Il coal mine in Eelei-
um, where by shaft sinking and boring the
mines have reached a total depth of 3,542
feet. The deepest shafts in the world are il
Germany and Belgium. England claims the
fifth deepest and France the sixth.
Two SHAFTS near Gilly, Belgium, are sunb
to the delAh of 2,S47 feet. Al this deptl
both were connected by a horizontal drift
From the DRIFT an exploring shaft vas SUM
to a further depth OF 666 feet, and from
there again a trial hole 40 feet deep was pu
down, making a total depth of 3,542 feet

1858 feet deep. This shaft is SUM il
coal. The Sampson shaft OF the Oberhart
lead and silver mining works, near St. An
dreasburg, Hanover, is 2,437 feet deep. The
winding shalt of the Rosebridge collinry
near Wigan, has a depth of 2,4JS feet.
The deepest lhaft i'll France is one of TIL
coal mines OF St. Luke in the Loire depart

~colliery, Lancashire, England, is 1924 feet
Some of the copper mines of Norway hav
been worked to a depth of from 2,540 t
4,270 feet. In one case only a depth exceed

U CANDIDATES,

The democracy of Butte that met last night
at Owsley's hall in mass meeting nominated a
ticket which will command the earnest sup
port of every democrat and many republicans
of the city. DIR. G. w. Beal, the candidate
for mayor, is we'll and tavorably known
throughout our community. The doctor is a
gentlemen of pleasing address and atfahle
manners, and possesses all the essential quail
~fications for a good mayor. He will bring to
the discharge Of the responsible duties OF the
position intelligence, strict Integrity and a
hisl, sense of honor that will insure a sac
cessful and acceptable administration OF the
affairs of the city. The nomipation OF Dr.
Beal is conceded to be equivalent to his cleo
ton.
For aldermen the meeting Nominated
Messls. McMinn, Hauser, Lavell and Houser'
These gentlemen are recognized as hrst-c'ass
business men with whom our citizens may
safely trust the interests of our thriving, pros
porous city. Each of them is thor
0ughly acquainted with its wants and
being closely identified with its interests,
their experience and acknowledged ability
will be brought to bear in advancing its pros
perity. The democrats have placed Il strong
ticket in the field and its triumphant election
is assured.

Our evening contemporary has a very unhap-
Ply faculty of jumping at conclusions and I'M
happily for itself always reaches the wrong
one. In its last evenings issue it speaks e1
cathedra in ascribing certain motives to DEM
ocrats in the nomination Of their city officers,
which motives can only exist in the diseased
imagination of a political charlatan. 1t affects
indignation that the democrats should NOM
mate and elect some of the best men
in the city to a responsible office, during
their temporary absence. In conclu-
sion it tells a little story about George WASH
ington, draws a long breath and winds up a
queralous eflusion in describing a square
toed, stand up brush fence in an encounter
with a bush-whacking slip-up enemy. Vtse

THE MAYORALTY.

While Butte is the largest and most popu-
lous city in the Territory, it is really only IN
its infancy. 1t requires no argument to prove
that it possesses resources that will place 1t
in the near future in the front rank OF west
ern cities. A glance at its magnificent mines,
now employing hundreds of men, and at its
almost numberless encouraging prospects
that are being rapidly and successfully de-
veloped, aud which, when worked, will de-
mand the labor of thousands more, attest to
the truthfulnesss of the assertion. Miners,
laborers of all kinds, mechanics, business
men and capitalists will soon be tiocking to
our city. In fact they are already making
their appearance in our midst, but when The
railroad reaches our vicinity, which it
will during the coming summer
we may expect an army of eager, excited men
will be precipitated upon us. Within its
ranks scores of unprincipled adventures,
rouehs, tranps and thieves may be looked
for. AS carton crows hover over an army
upon the battle field, so will outcasts from
the society of ~law-abidine, respectable men

and in preserving the peace, order and dignity
of the city, it will be necessary at times, to
invoke the strong arm of the law.
TO do this ettectually and to the end that
life and properly in every portion of the city
may be guarded and protected, or present
municipal government was organized. At its
head stands the mayor, No emoluments are
| attached to The office. The position is purely one
OF honor and of great responsibility. The
occupant is invested with power that may be
exercised to the advantage or to the detri-
ment of the interests OF the city. The police
magistrate, marshal, city treasurer and asses
sor and city clerk and attorney are appointed
BY him and confirmed by the board Of alder
men. 1t is in the appointment of competent
men to the above narne positions that in
a great measure the peace, order and pros
payitv of the city lies. IT the mayor be care
less. dishonest or incompetent, it would nat
uraliy be inferred that his administration of
the affairs of the city would be more or less
coloreh by his own characteristics, and con.
sequpntlv would be Improbable
and unsatisfactory to our cltlZ"ns.
On the other hand if he be able, conscien-
tious, energetic and thoroughly imbued with
a public spirit, it is safe to assume that the in
terests of the city will neither langulsh nor
suffer under his administration.
IN DR.. Beal, the democratic candidate for
mayor, the citizens of Butte recognize a gen
tlemau who possesses, in an eminent degree,
those qualifications which peculiarly fit him
TO honor the position for which he is named,
He is able, conscientious, energetic, with a
public and private character above reproach,
alive to the best interests of the city and
withal a gentleman. These are requirement
that tue people of Butte demand in theil
mayor, and the mai who would aspire to be
come DR.. Beal's opponent, must possess them
or he he will invite all overwhelming ant
humiliating defeat.

AN INTER ESTENG SITUATION.

The republican United States senators are
showing signs of weakening. They have re-
fused TO transact the business for which they
were called together until its accumulation is
embarrassing the operations OF the govern
ment. There are now before the senate over
265 nominations awaiting its action. Only
twenty five of the presi 'ent's nominations
have thus far been passed upon. The two
Chinese treaties, the Japanese treaty and u
protocol of agreement between this country
and the United States of Colombia are also
awaiting the action of The senate. 1t is stated
that Garfield is becoming very impatient and
desires the republican senators to cease OPP
posing the democrats who are willing at any
time TO perform the legitimate business of the
session and then adjourn. The democrats
have already recorded thirty-seven motions
to 90 into executive session, and thirty-seven
times have they, with the aid Of Malone, been
voted down. This foolishness has been in
dulged in long enough and the magic words
:sGartield approves will doubtless bring the
republicans to a realizing sense of what they
owe to the country. Californians are also
very anXions that the Chinese treaties shall
be considered. They say the coolie labor
dealers are crowding large numbers on the
coast in anticipation Of our ports being closed
against them. Our dispatches state that the
| republicans will meet in caucus TO-DAY and
| consider the matter of an executive session.
They are certainly placed in a very embar-
| RAISING position. Malone wants his Riddle.

Our republican friends committed the very
grave mistake of nominating a county COM
missioner-elect as their candidate for mayor.
Democrats occasionally will nominate a man
for an office when he is absent and elect him
too, but they have never fallen into the habit
80 pregnant of evil-of nominating one
man for several offices. The duties of a
county commissioner for this new county are
so multitudinous and varied in their nature
that it will be utterly impossible for him to
discharge them without embarrassing him in
the performance OF those belonging to the
Office of mayor We think the people of
Butte will take this view of the case and re-
lieve Mr.. Jack of the necessity of occupying
a dual position. One office at a time is about
all the average man can properly attend to
nowadays.

The New York Commercial Bulletin
makes the following statement in regard to
the terms of peace imposed upon Peru by
Chill 9Th Chilians are imposing upon
the vanouished Peruvians terms Of peace
lutte as operous, all things considered. as
those which the Germans imposed upon the
French in the treaty of Versailles. In the
first place they demand S%2O,O0O,0O0 in cash
as an indemnity and this at a lime when
Peruvian commerce is annihilated, industry
paralyzed and the Peruvian (provisional)
government itself is so thoroughly inpov-
erished that it is unable to raise the means to
meet its ordinary expenses. Her former
sources of wealth-nitrate and 2uano, and
the copper ard saltpetre mines are already
in the enemy's possession, and these are to be
retained until the indemnity is paid. Anoth-
er condition is that the subjugated country
shall not fortify any of her ports for fifty
wears 10 come, nor raise an army or navy for
forty wears. Practically this would seem TO
be the humiliation of Peru as an indepen-
dent state but her people, 80 far from los
ing heart, appear to be TO go to
work and make the most of 1t. They have
already rendered the government a loan
sufficient to enable it to meet the First Install
ment of the indemnify, and on all hands there
is a disposition among them to go to work ant
repair the waste of war. In this they have
the sympathies of the civilized world, albei'
it is LOT forgotten that it was the Peruvians
who brought on the conflict which has beer
productive to them of such calamitous conse
oneness"
