ado potato-bug appears in large
numbers this year, and it will re-
qulre extra exertion on the part
of the farmers TO destroy them. In
making experiments we find that
Paris green is the cheapest and
most efectual agent for their de-
structlon. 1t can be applied mixed
with water or with ashes. Some
add plaster of Paris TO the poison.
others flour. 1t is astonishing that
such small quantities of Paris green
will suffice to kill them. We be-
lieve from our own experience that,
as a general rule, too much Paris
green is usually applied. BY sprink-
ling or dusting the POTATOES over
once or twice early in the seaso n
will save frequent applications at
later period. In some instances
one good thorough application will
answer for the early crop OF
potatoes.

ELECTORAL COUNT RESOLUTION.

A resolution was recentlya introduced
III the senate of the United States,
providing that the two houses shall meet in
the hall of the house of representatives on
February o, 1881, and count the electoral vote
of the several states of the Union. The reso-
luton provides that the president Of the sem
ate shall be the presiding officer, that one
person on the part Of the senate and two Oh
the part of the house shall be appointed tel
lers, who shall make a list of the votes as they
shall be declared, that the result shall be de-
iivered to the presiding officer who shall an
nounc to the two houses the names of the
persons elected president and vice president.
But if it appear that any votes of electors
have been cast on any other day than that fix
ed by the act of congress, and if counting or
emitting such votes shall not essentially
change the result of the election, they shall
be reported by the president of the senate in
the following manner: "These are votes of
electors cast on the - day of -
month, 1880. If they be counted the result
would be A B has received---votes for pres
ident of the United States, and CD has re-
ceived -- votes for president Of the United
States. If the votes be not counted the re-
suit would be A b has received - votes for
president of the United States, and c -
votes for president of the United States, but
lin either event - is elected president of
the United States. The votes for vice presi-
;sdent will be decided in like manner" The
effect of the passage of his resolution would
he to count out the electoral vote of Georgia
that was cast on a day prescribed by the laws
Of that state, but not on the day indicated by

Mr.. Houser, of Deer Lodge county, has in
troduced Fl. B. No. 80, entitled a bill for an
act to repeal an act for the support and main
tenauce of the Butte Fire Department. We
understand that under the present law a levy
Of one mill on the dollar is made on the as
sessable property of Butte for the support
and maintenance of its fire department. We
are yet to hear Of a single complaint being
uttered by our citizens against the imposition
of this tax, and they are at a loss to u'.de-
stand the motives that prompted Mr.. Houser
to introduce this bill. If there is a town or
city in Montana that needs a we'll organized
and generously supported fire department,
that city is Butte. Our taxpayers, as far as
far as we have learned, are willing to pay this
tax and object to Mr.. Houser's bill. In view
OF this fact, and in the absence Of any petit
ton to our representatives for the repeal o1
the law providing for its collection, we hope
Mr.. Houser will reconsider the matter and
permit the bill to sleep the sleep OF death.

THE DISPUTED TERRITORY.

In another column we present the names of
forty-three farmers living in the "disputed
territory" who desire to be included within
the boundaries of the proposed new county of
Silver Bow. These gentlemen are residents
of that portion of upper Deer Lodge val
ley that lays south of the first standard paral-
lei north of the base line and would be in
Silver Bow county if the line of division
were left as fixed in H. B. No. 6. There is
nothing surprising in this expression from our
farming friends. They are men of intelli-
gence and comprehend the fact that their
interests are, to a great extent, identified with
those of Butte. The prosperity of Butte
means the prosperity of the surrounding
farming communities. The best market in
the territory for all farm produce is right
here at Butte. The farmers in the upper
DEER Lodge valley are not slow to perceive
this. They know it and have received and
are still receiving the benefits of this market.
Their beef, hay, grain, vegetables, cheese,
butter and eggs find a ready sale and bring
more than at any other place in the country.
They can purchase their dry goods, cloth
ing, groceries and farm supplies cheaper here
than elsewhere. These advantages bring
some of them here nearly every day in the
year. They seldom have occasion to go to
Deer Lodge except to serve on juries or to
pay their taxes. If they were in the county
of Silver Bow, these duties could be perform
ed with less inconvenience and expense.
Farmers know how to a." kill Two birds with
one stone." If county business brought
them to Butte, a load of farm produce could
be taken along for which they are assured a
ready sale at good prices. These are some
of the advantages of belonging to the propos-
ed new county that they cannot fail to see.
There are others equally as patent. In a
slight little, bright little county such as
this would be, full of energy, life, wealth and
population, their taxes would be lighter than
in Deer Lodge county. In our small area OF
territory, with all of our county business
within arms length, it would cost compare
lively a small sum to maintain our organiZa-
ton, hence it would be a county Of light
taxes.
we notice in our report OF the legislative
proceedings, when the division bill was before
the committee of the whole last Monday that
some change was made in the line of divi-
sion. If this change exclude the gentlemen
whose names are signed to the petition from
the new county, we hope our law makers
will rectify the mistake made and grant the
prayer Of the petitioners.

A bill to prevent oma beating has been
introduced IN the council by DIR. Mitchell.
Although the necessity of such a law may
indicate the presence among us OF some very
low forms of humanity, we are glad to note
the introduction of the bill and hope it may
become a law. There are brutes in human
form in nearly every community, and when
they display their proves in beating women
a punishment commensurate with their CRIME
should be administered. The bill proVloes
that the woman bGater shall be dashed to a
post erected in a public place. and a placard
bearing the inscription "Wife Beater" OF
"Woman Beater'' shall be placed up n his
breast. The penalty for the second offense is
imprisonment in the county Jail for a period
not less than thirty days nor more thar six
months.

Lecture On Idaho.

New YORK, Feb. 2.-Judge E. S. Ander-
son, of Idaho; delivered a lecture last even
ing before the Bullion club on the mining in
terests of that territory. He stated that the
mineral resources of Idaho were comparative
ly unknown; that some of the richest veins
had been, discovered since last June. The
mining belt was over 200 miles in width and
extended from southern Idaho northward
through Montana into the British possessions.
In the western part, he said, gold was abund-
ant, but the richest silver mines were in the
eastern part of the territory. The difficulty
of transportation, owing to the lack of rail.
roads and capital, was the only obstacle to the
speedy development of the mineral wealth OF
the territory.

According to the Cincinnati Enquirer Gar
field has everything cut and dried for the
next eight years. The plan is a very pretty
one, and worthy of the brilliant son of Ohio.
ale is to stow Blaine away in the cabinet as
a Garfield man in 1884. He is to stow Sher-
man away in the Senate for six years, and to
keep him out of the fight in 1884. He is to
give Conkllng the disposal of one of three
or four cabinet positions, the state depart
ment, the treasury department and the post
office department being excluded from the
Conkling list. The two departments in the
government which command the largest
patronage are the treasury department and
the post-office department. These are to be
filed with Garfield men. But while these
arrangements are in progress for the deter
mining of the nomination of Garfield four
years hence, 1t is reported that the same
symmetrical scheme is to secure the nOmina-
ton of Blaine eight years hence. This shows
that Blaine has patience, and that Garfield
has sense enough to negotiate a promissory
