the Butte.
Jos. Cans arrived in the city on yes
terday's coach and is stopping at the
Overland. Mr.. Cans is surprised at the
rapid growth of Benton, and while he
never fails to give Helena a send off
when the occasion offers, he is free to
admit that the river metropolis is loom
ing up with every prospect of being a big
city. After remaining in Benton a few
days, Joseph will go out to his Wolf
