THAT YELLOW noe.

ssMontana," our Washington correspondent,
in his last letter to the MINER, told what we
considered at the time a tough dog story. But
the Washington correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Commercial corroboratas the statement
Of the MINER man and gives a much more
extended notice of what is now generally
known at Washington as Gartield's yellow
dog. Here is what the Commercial man says
under date of the 4th inst:
A little yellow dog, which followed Gar
fields carriage in the procession to-day, has a
history. About a year ago the same dog fol-
lowed General Garfield from where he got off
a street car to his house, corner of Thirteenth
and l streets. The general, noticing the dog,
threw him a piece Of meat and forgot the oc-
currence until he met the same dog on the
same corner the next day.
Following him home again he was rewarded
by another piece of meat. Finally the dog
made General Garfield's house a kind of tenn
porary headquarters. When General Garfield
went to Chicago as a delegate to the conven-
ton that nominated him, the dog followed
to the depot. Before the news reached
here Of the nomination of General Garfield
the dog Set up a joyful barking that was al
most unbearable.
"Something has happened" said one of the
ladies in the house, land here is a telegraph
messenger" The message contained the in
formation of the nomination. When General
Garfield came here, some weeks after his
nomination., the story was told him, and he
said he would take the dog to Ohio with him;
but when the time for starting arrived the dog
could not be found, the animal being of a
rowing nature. General Garfield never saw
the dog since until yesterday, when, riding
out with a friend, there he was. Calling him
by his name, "Bcb," the dog recognized the
voice and appeared to be happy. AS the Cen
eral arrived at the Riggs house the dog again
disappeared. He saw nothing of him until
to-day as the procession was moving from the
White House. The dog followed the carriage
all the way to the capitol.

New York Notes.

NEW YORK, March ia Washington

churches speak well for a town 'smade up
OF gambling houses and liquor saloons"
The VAUDEVILLE correspondent now tells
the people of Maryland what he knows abou.
mining and things in the following language.
In his search for knowledge, G. M. S. has
learned that s'silver is found in rock and dirt
which is called oie."
The principal industry is mining in silver,
gold, copper and lead. There is some iron,
but the bulk of it is not good quality, hence
there is not much prospecting for IRON.
Gold is found in dust aud sometimes in mug
gets: but silver is found III rock and dirt
which is called ore. Every nation on the
globe seems to be represented here. | am
working in the Alice gold and silver mill.
The mine is dow 700 feet and there is plen-
ty of ore of fair grade. 1t runs from 60 to 100
ounces to the ton.
In the above excerpt G. NJ. S. accidentally
struck into a slight vein of truth, Which
he left as soon as it was discovered and ran
his level into the following.
We have had sno here every day since the
first of August. In the mills the snow IS
fro /, 10 to fifteen feet deep. You talk of
turkeys, here they grow high and fat, for the
price is six aud seven dollars apiece, and
small at that.
We would ask. in all candor, how one can
expect to buy turkeys for less han six and
seven dollars apiece when ''snow is from 10 to
Is feet deep in tue mills ?' 1t costs some-
thing to raise turkeys III a country where
well-covered buildings contain snow from 10
to Is feet in depth. G.. NJ. S. ought to know
about the snow, for he IS working in the
Alice mill, where, of course, he tunnels his
way from the boiler to the engine room I'M
der 10 or Is feet of snow in the discharge of
his dnty.
One more extract from this precious letter
and we are done. c. M. S. winds up a re-
view of the market report Of the town COM
posed 'mostly of gambling houses and liqnor
ed here on account of the extreme cold.'
How can it respected to raise corn in a coun-
try where the thermometer stands SO to Is
degrees below zero eight months out of the
year and snow lies 10 to Is feet deep in the
mills? But we will turn this idiotic scrib-
bier over to the farmers of the Bitter Root,
MissouIa and other valleys of Montana, who,
if he Were known, would plug up and stop
his "flood of information with the cobs of
the finest corn raised in the west. AS the
above is only a "dlop in the bucket we adj
wise our citizens to stand from under when
the 'tlood'' comes.

U CoMaIssIsSERs.

In the ensuing election the people of Silver
Bow county will be called upon to elect three
county commissioners To say that the office
of county commissioner is the most impor-
tant one in the county, is only repeating
what is generally conceded. In organizing
the new county and setting the wheels Of its
government in motion, questions of a finan-
cial character will arise that will require the
experience and careful study of our financieIs
to satisfactorily meet. Lots must be purchas-
ed-a court house and Jail must be built
contracts must be let and a multitude of 9TH
er duties incident to the Office of commission
er must be performed. The office IS not a
desirable one. but three men must be found
to form the board. These men should pos
sess integrity of character, intelligence and
financial ability and should be free from that
contemplate narrow-mindedness that eX-
treme %paItisanism too frequently hegets.
County commissioners deal with a great many
men of both political parties and their party
feeling should not be so pronounced and in
~tolerent as to prompt them to give to one
man what they would deny to another.
Upon this little rock the finances of more
than one county in the territory has been
nearly wrecked.
Our county sets out under favorable au-
specs. Property within its limits is rapidly
approaching IN value-the railroad which
will be in our midst within IA few months
will not only add to it but add also to our
population. Capital will be attracted here,
and, as it is proverbially timid it will closely
scrutinize the hands that are guiding the
financial affairs of the county. If it see any
disposition en- the part OF those who have us
funus and its credit in their C 'arge to iu-
dulge in reckless or unnecessary expenditures
it will hesitate to invest in or will withdraw
from our borders. 1t therefore becomes a
shall be selected to fill this important Office.
While We have a large number Of
worthy citizens who could discharge its duties
to the entire satisfaction OF our tax payers,
we have no name to suggest. But we think
we but echo the opinion of all, when we say
that lie who aspires to the office is the ve.y
maj that should not be entrusted with it.
We can only offer this suggestion, that we
should loOK for our candidates for this office
among large tax payers-for it may safely be
assumed that men who have been successful
in their private business, by legitimate means,
will be successful for the public. Large tax
PAYERS have large interests at stake. A board of
commissioners composed of such men would
certainly see that their own as well as the
peoples money would not be squan1ered.
We trust our citizens will canvas this matter
among themselves to the end that our best
men may be put forward for this responsible
position.

THE SENATE CONTEST.

1t appears that the democratic senators are
publicans to put in their new Off GERS. They
say that the present employees are not prepar-
ed for so sudden a dismissal as thew believed
the democrats had the organization. In other
words. if discharged now they could not pay
their board bills, and other little bills tina
most of men like TO settle before leaving a
place. Tney want to hold on their offices a
while-iust to get their breath as it we're
until they can, by economy, save enough
money to take them d~ecently out of the city.
This IS d very light reason upon which to
base an opposition against the new republic
can officers taking their places. 1t will hardly
hold water. But Senator Salisbury advances
a much better and more solid one. He holds
that the vice-president cannot, under the con-
stitution, vote upon the question of the Or
9anization OF the senate. The democrats
will consider and decide upon their plan of
action in a caucus to be held next Monday.
The republicans expect and are prepared 10
meet a stubborn contest. This will end in
smoke. Without Mahone's vote they can do
nothing but talk. They will not get the little
traitors vote. The republicans "bar'l' was
the largest, and that ssbar'l' will hold hun in
his present place. Old, bluff Ben Hill, hit
the nail on the bead when he said that the
democrats have no one to blame but them
selves IN being now placed in the minority.
He said if they had unseated Kellogg they
would have the power to retain the present
organization without Mahone's vote. This
they would not do, and are now re aping the
fruits of their folly. Those who are familiar
with the secret history of Ke!logg's election
to the United States senate now concede that
he is a fraud upon the people of Louisiana
and should never have been permitted to &C.
cupy a seat in the senate chamber. 1t is ex,
ceedingly humiliating 10 democratic Louisi.
ana to feel hat she is misrepresented by a
republican in the upper branch of congress
and it is quite as humiliating to the democrat
ic senators that they wiliully let slip the OF
portunity they once had OF rectifying a wrong
committed against that state and OF purgins
their own body of a fraud. "Thelr chickens
are coming home to roOst."

HELEnA's POSTMASTER.

Late last evening the MINER received a tel
egram from Helena stating that a private dis
patch had been received at that city conveying
the intellige nee that r.. e. Fisk has been ap-
pointed Postmaster at Helena. THIS may be
so, but we think there must he some mistake
about it. Col. Bob wrote to his paper some
time ago that he had given up all hopes of
receiving the appointment. Garfield has also
stated that he would not remove any one to
make a place for an applicant, if the incum-
bent had satisfactorily discharged the duties
of his Office. In the face Of all this,
Colonel Bob was, at last accounts, press.
ing his claims for the position. In a let.
ter just received from "Montapa,"
our Washington correspondent, he states
that Col. Sanders, Bob Fisk, Jack Blaine an!
Alex. Beattie, at the date of his writing, were
standing in a line of place hunters that led
from the middle of the street to the ante-roem
of the white house, awaiting their turn to
prefer their wishes TO its occupant. II cheek
and perseverance, are the main factors in will
ming the position Bob Fisk is Helena's post
master.

]. W. Mackey, it is stated, gave $4,000 to
the Grant tnnd.
In New York City a large meeting of its
very best citizens was recently held at Coop.
er's Institute to protest against the unclean
condition of the streets.
The New York ~ orld says the odium of
selling his senatorial vote remains with Ma
hone, but the odium of buying it belongs to
the republicans, who have made a bad bar
gain.
An exchange says: Before Garfield attain
ed his majority and when he was keeping
school,, one of the "big boys thought he was
ga bigger man than old Garfield" and tried
it on. In about five minutes he was a sorer,
lamer and more sensible boy. No moral.
1t is said that General T. A. Sheldon, who
has been a guest at the white house since
Garfeld's arrival and who was spoken of as
his private secretary, is to have the valuable
place of governor of New Mexico. Sheldon
was an anti-Sherman delegate from Ohio to
the Chicago convention. The governorship
of New Mexico Is considered valuable prob

years and that the governor will be placed in
a position to exercise a great deal of influence
in securing his own or some other persons
election to the United States senate. The
value of the Office must be of a political ma
ture unless its incumbent receives a much
larger salary than the governors in other
territories do.
The Nez Perces Meas, Idaho, of the Sd

gives the following information, which we
are satisfied is not generally diffused. That

news to us. The statement that Henry Viii
lard has secured a controlling interest in the
Northern Pacific railroad may be set down
as a positive fact. While the news is surpris-
ing to many it is not unexpected-has, indeed,
facilities for knowing the designs and inten-
tions of the company of which Mr.. Willard is
the chief. Hereafter the two companies,
while not actually consolidated into one cor.
poration, will, nevertheless, work harmoni-
Ously:. together, each retaining its distinctive
individuality hasten the attainment of the
common object desired by both, to-wit the
rapid development of the country by means
of railroads and immigration. In this latter
respect the o.. r. & N. Company have been
particularly active, for, during the past win
ter, they have systematically distributed from
their Chicago headquarters over the eastern
and western states a countless number of
documents, treating exclusively ofthe advan-
taees offered by our great northwest to immi-

Upton's Suicide.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 19.-The theory
that the suicide of Gen. Upton was the result
of an overtaXed brain seems to be borne ont
by the following letter, written on the day
preceding the night of his death, which was
found among his papers after the inquest:
"PREsIDIo, SAN Francisco
March IA, 1881.
To the Adjt.-Gen. U. S. Army :-Sir-I
hereby tender my resignation as commander
of the fourth artillery.
Your obedient servant,
~(Signed.) E. UPTON.
Colonel 4th Artillery.
The theory seems to be that this was writ
ten with the view to securing some relief
from work and more time for the revision of
his tactics.
