worthy of the sterner sex. At funeral

CAPTAIN wHEELER's REPORT.

We are under obligations to Captain
George M. Wheeler, captain of engineers U.
S.. army, for his annual report for the fiscal
year ending June 3Oth, 1879, upon the geo.
graphical surveys of the territory of the
United States west of the Tooth meridian in
the states aud territories Of California, Colo
RADIO, Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon,
Texas, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, New Next
co, Utah, Washington and Wyoming, being
ssappendix 0 O" of the annual report of the
chief of engineers for 1879.
Accompanying the report are seven topo-
graphical atlas sheets, with the classification
of the lands shown in color, as arabic or agri-
cultural with irrigation, arid or barren, TIM
Der and grazing, and the location of mineral
deposits, of parts of southeastern Idaho, east
ern California, and western Nevada, southern
Colorado, and central New Mexico. The re-
port contains a summary Of field and office
operations. Geodetic and Typographical sur
vey of portions of Great Salt Lake Basin.
Barometric hypsometry. Routes Of commu-
nication. Natural history investigations and
mining notes, etc., etc. The report and maps
are invaluable to the miner, the agriculturist
and the stockraiser for the great mass of in
formation they contain respecting the country
west of the Tooth meridian.

A~DULTERATION OF FOOD.

The action of France in regard to the ad-
mission OF pork into its ports has again raised
into prominence the whole question of adul-
iteration of food. While there can be no just
cause for alarm OH the part Of France in re-
gard to trichina in American pork-for tile
scare was evidently worked up by foreign
speculators-still the alarm exists and has
spread to some extent on this side of the At
lantic and directed the attention of the peo-
pie to the subject of impure food. The Chi
cago pork packers have conclusively proven
that no diseased hog could possibly make the
trip to that city without showing signs of
sickness. They affirm that none but sound,
healthy hogs are purchased and used by them.
They point to the fact that nearly 5000, 600
hogs were packed at their establishments
during the last year and that they came a
long distance, either in droves or by cars, to
reach there and that 1t is q rule with them,
which it is to their interest to observe, that
every hog that shows unusual signs of distress
or WEAKNESS after the trip, shall be turned
over to the grease factory. Whether this
be true or not, or whether there may exist
grounds for alarm we are not prepared to say,
but it cannot lie denied that the whole subject
of impure food is now raised into one of ma
tional Importance. The New York Mail, in
referring to this subject, says: "The matter
should not be permitted to rest until the
most complete state of national supervision
shall protect us from every form of adultera-
ton. We all know that pure liquors are the
exception, but then one can do without whis-
ky while he cannot do without bread. 1t is
to be hoped That congress and state legisla-
lures will meet the question promptly, and
provide efficient means for the punishment of
everyone who knowingly sells an adulterated
article. The protection of the health of the
people is one of the first and highest duties
of government. What with diseased pork,
bob veal, sanded sugar, teas poisoned in col
oring, coffee made from no one knows what,
and fifty other made up articles, it is no
wonder that doctors and grave-diggers are in
demand. Let us have home protection at
once. The first business of the trainer of an
athlete is to see that the TODD given is perfect
ly pure. Let that be The demand of the law,
and then let the law be'rigidly enforced. We
might thereby diminish the rate of mortality
in a very appreciable degree"

VOTE FOR 1T.

On next Saturday the tax payers of this city
will be called upon to decide by their vote
whether or not they will approve an act to
enable the people of Butte to build a school
house. The MINER has already taken occa-
sion to express the hope that the act may be
approved. We think that we have conclu-
sively shown that additional school facilities
are urgently needed and should be provided
at the earliest practicable homer The sum
asked for is insignificantly small when viewed
in connection with the vast Importance to our
community of the work which it will per-
form. Helena, that has neither the popula-
ton nor the taxable property of this district
has the largest and most costly school build
ing in the territory =; while Bohemian, contain
ing but a tithe Of our assessable property,
contemplates building a $4,000 school house
during the coming summer. We would like
to see the act approved by a rousing majority
and we believe our mill and mine owners
our business men, and all parents in the dis
irict will zealously work for that end.

NIHILISN ,

In 1868, Michael Bakunin, who may be
called the father Of Nihilism, in the course
of a speech made at Geneva, Switzerland,
said: "Our first work must be the destruction
and humiliation of everything as it now ex-
lists. You must accustom yourself to destroy
everything, the good with the bad; for if but
an atom of this old world remains the new
will never be created" In another speech
the thorough going Bakunin said: "Deeds of
political assassination and incendiarism are
not the offspring of any sentiment of personal
hatred or vengeance. We know full we'll
that one emperor killed will merely be sue
ceeded by another. who in his turn will again
nominate the chief of police. Such deeds
are justified by the necessity of roofing out
from mems minds the habit of respect for
the powers that be. The more attacks are
made on the car and his officials increase,
the more will the people get to understand
the absurdity of the veneration with which
these personages have been regarded for CEN
turies."
The killing of the car is the beginning of
the harvest of the seed which was then sown.
But two years before the ut.erance of the
above sentiments, Karakazof made an at
tempt upon the cars life. The attempt fill
ed Russia with wrathful indignation, but
when two years ago the student Solowjeff
made a similar attempt, the Indifference with
which the cars subjects viewed his fate was
a matter of comment throughout the world.
Now after. the assasslns have succeeded in
their designs, it is more remarkable that the
act is made the occasion of open public re-
ioicings in the large cities of Europe and
America. Nihilism has, indeed, taken a
strong hold upon Europe. 1t is a matter of
slight wonder that its crowned heads are
sleepless with fear.

to learn everything and it seems but common
sense that those sciences most needful to the
success of the individual in his chosen pur-
suit should be those most studied. The high
err mathematics are necessary to the architect,
the engineer and others; geography to the
navigator; modern language to a certain class
and the dead languages to another class; each
has its proper place and value and should
be ranked accordingly. Buttoof frequently they
have been made of undue Importance and
valuable time has been spent upon them,-
when they could only prove useless; or at the
best, but ornamental,-to the neglect of
those that are not only useful, but necessary.

Carl Schurz will eat dinner with the Bos.
them. He will tell them that, if he did vir.
tually endorse the swindle perpetrated on the
Poncas, he allowed the Utss to massacre all
the men at the White river agency, to outrage
the women and to rob the settlers in Middle
park, and to go unpublished. Then he will
claim tlst he averaged things tolerably well.
He will be able TO point proudly to the fact
that no Indian murderer, rayisbff or robber
was ever punished during his administration;
and then he can confidently ask them what
more they can require of a man.-Dencer Re
