now o clear head and Is In excellent mental
and physical condition DR.. Riggin Buckler's
letter, In which the other gentlemen fully
concur says: "There can be no doubt that
Colonel James mind was affected his own
statements show this but IL was only tenn
porary and the result Of illness, and had he
been properly treated he would have re-
covered, and there would have been no ne
cessity for sending him to an asylum for
treatment Every physician has experiences
of this kind. The case of Colonel james Is
precisely like that of the late Cadwallader
Ringgold, u. s. n. who was sent home from
pronounced insane and suffering from soften
ing of the brain by board of naval medical
officers. He was fortunate enough to secure
hearing in his case, when 1t was clearly
shown that his alleged insanity, etc, were
the result of fever and improper medical
treatment. He was restored to the active
list of the navy, and his subsequent career in
the service Of the government fully sustained
their verdict. II Colonel james is at present
an insane man, or laboring under any mental
defects or disease, can say 1t would be diff
ficult, In my opinion, to find q clearer head
or more systematic mind, or one in better
document will no doubt prove a strong help
TO Colonel James efforts, now making, for
restoration to the active list, from which he
was retired July 2. 1879. His bill, designed
to effect that purpose, Is in the Military Com
mittee of the Senate. He desires his army
friends and Others everywhere to aid him in
its passage in any wav that to them may seem
proper and right. ColonelJanes record prior
to his retirement shows him to have been
well informed about his duties and to have
earned official praise in their performance.

In the light Of Subsequent developments and

A NEW GOVERNOR.

We note with pleasure q project on foot 10
have Judge g. g. Goodwin, late editor Of the

bune, appointed Governorof Montana by the
new President. President
Garfield would suit this Coast exactly by
placing him In that responsible position, and
at the same time secure the services Of an
excellent officer.---Cdrson Tribune. Ia
y The following is going the rounds Of the
press In this and other Territories. II may
(, be that some friend of Goodwin wishes To
!. inaugurate boom for him, and 1t Is reason
ably certain that Mr.. Goodwin is In ignor-
, ance Of the movement. IL Is time TO nomi-
. nate some one else for Governorof Montana,
although Il serves no purpose aside from
irving the few who dislike Governor Potts IN
opportunity TO air their grievances. The
administration of the present Governor has
been the best Montana has known. His con-
duct of affairs and labors for the welfare Of
i'the Territory are not only praised by the peo-
pie here, but known tn those in whose hands
sIests the appointing Of Federal. officers for
the Territories, and that the wishes Of the
msny will be respected rather thanth whims

Sitting Bulls Surrender.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-The Heroids spec
ial from Fort Dufo,d, ID T., the 25th, says:
The man who has just arrived from Woody
Mountain at this post reports that Sitting
Bull has formally surrendered there to tho
Canadian Government, and asks that he may
be sent, under charge OF an officer to the
Northwestern Police, to Fort Duford aud
turned over to the military authorities al
this post; that Sitting Bull stated that he left
Canada with the intention Of surrendering
to Major Brotheton, but became alarmed at
the presence Of troops at Polar Creek Agency
and feared that he was going to be dealt with
treacherously; that he knew that these troops
were from Fort Keogh, and had fought them
50 often before that he dared not trust him
self or his people in their hands, and that 10

TIE Legislature Is to adjourn February
18th, concurrent resolution TO that effect
having passed both Houses yesterday. The
last days of session are busy ones. Inview
Of this, preparation for adjournment should
be at once made. The honorable gentlemen
probably have knowledge of what is need
ed, but having for two or three sessions no
ticed disposition to burriedly dispose Of
business as the day Of adjournment draws
nigh, we trust this little bit Of advice will
not be considered superfluous. We have
nothing to complain Of as yet.

TnE petitions published in the Miner as
having been circulated among the valley
people were sent from Butte and circulated
by one or more Butte men. The one from
here was sent the valley folks at their own
instance and request and was circulated by
their.Beighbors. That the "grangers may
h,vS been : misled by Misrepresentation
might be true, but no one who knows James
Goodwin will believe that he acted dishon-
orably in the matter. Further than this, no
one has or will tell him so.

ANOTHER petition was published by the
Miner on Wednesday, subscribed and sworn
to before n Notary Public Of Butte. The
names Of the men who circulated the petit
ton are sufficient guarantee that the petition
was honestly circulated and signed. Their
word Is rs good as the affidavit, and not q
man who lives In the county and knows the
men VINO crrcurzrcu tine petition would rnInK
they would publish petition not signed
as published; that Is all they set forth In the
affidavit. And the petition differs In the
names of those who want division. Prom
inent men have signed their paper, but q
gentleman who has lived In the Upper Val
ley dozen or more years says that he fails
TO recognize many Of the names published
that he knows intimately the "grangers," as
the Miner terms those who live In that sec
ton, and that several of the names do not
only not represent those whose wishes have not
been respected, but several of them are not
property owners. One signature appearing,
our informant states, is that Of q boy not Is
years of age. While every man has right
TO be heard, 1t Is seemingly desperate case
when names are used which have no right to
influence Legislation of the character desir-
ed. A gentleman who has resided In Butte
for some time further states his belief that If
submitted to vote of the business men Of
Butte two-fifths of them would vote against
division. This man Is q property owner and
taxpayer. Those presidents Of the valley
south Of the proposed line Of division who
wish TO cast their fortunes with the new
county, are few and far between. And is
Browns Gulch part of the valley claimed
by the anti-divisionists ? So far as sigma
lures are concerned, the men who own prop
perry and pay taxes are all whose names
should appear. Their wishes are alone o. n
titled to respect. Few favor their being
placed In another county, but the minority
report has had Its effect. The desperation Of
drvisionists is plain; their cause well nigh
hopeless. 1' H'Aa'H gl 4s.i' .AH-a@

DAVID DAVIS, the po'tly Senator from
Illinois, cannot much longer be accused of
being "on the fence" There never was any
real harm 10 him. He viii pring CONSIDER
auIe weight with him. Our Democratic
friends will admit this. A Washington dis
patch of the LIST says: The Democrats are
anxious just now about David Davis. One
of the Senators remarked to-day he had in
variably voted with the Republicans lately
on all party questions, and he would not be
surprised to see him come out fatty and 60
with the administration after March 18th.
He had been heard say Of late that he was
ashamed Of the Democratic party as man
aged by Tilden, Barnum and Hewitt, and
that no respectable gentleman could afford
TO identify himself in public life with men
who tried to carry national elections by
barefaced forgery and undisguised bribery.

THE division bill has passed the House
as amended In, and reported from, Committee
Of the Whole. Thus far the fight has been
favorable to the valley paper and its friends.
. The fight was made on the line and success

"Butte men resister at Deer Lodge Hotels
from Silver Bow County"
"Deer Lodge is going to build 5000
court house In case Of the defeat Of division
bill"
"The Valley paper says Sheriff Smith is
opposed TO division"
These and similar paragraphs constitute
the "NIinor Items" OF the Miner Of recent
date. They are appropriately named. The
Butte men who register from Silver Bow
County probably wish to conceal their post
Office address. But they need have resorted
to no such measure. ..
The court house scheme served Its purpose.
1t was purely imaginary and gotten up to
sell any one fool enough to believe such q
statement. With this purpose In view II was
transmitted 10 Butte for the benefit Of the
Miner local, who took 1t in. ....
The other paragraph is not inappropriate
ly termed an untruth-usually denominated
q lie. The "valley paper" never contained
such a statement. When nothing but such
statements are procurable 1t might be ms well
for our Butte contemporary to hire .
cheap boy TO write for II. The primary de-
partment Of the public school can furnish
acopious supply ofbetter sense than that pos
sessed by the Miner local. .... ...
