The 1lrst a Nav.

Among the most ins.nion. .,A.-,..
ever known Or psactioed to induce the
immigration Of healthy young bachel.
o.s y the one recently put forth Il some
OF The Wood River papers. It \ stated
WIN great secrecy-ard don't-xiveit-
away tone which does completely sive
the whole thing away-that about 60
young ladies from Californis are expect-
ca to arrive in the Wood River ceuntrv
about the 1st Of Nay next, to ind en-
Payment - servant girls, seanstresses,
school teachers, etc.
The effect Of this nash announcement
may be more easily imagined than re-
a',sed. 1t Is liable to produce in the
midst OF region Of innoceut prospect
Oh and unsuspecting saloon keepers 4
commotton not less terrible than . VOL
canic upheaval. Suppose there are two
times sixty bachelors camped on those
bleak mountain sides, and this torrent
OF three score marriageable maidens in
all their youth and beauty poun in on
them, what will he the result? 1t is on
~ fair topresunle that these maidens are
beautiful and tue bachelors brave. Such
. presumption should always be pre-
sumed. On an average, at least three.
and perhaps more bachelor will
become desperately smitten with
the charms Of at least one Of the
fair immigrants. Will there net te
battle, murder and sudden death, black
eyes, broken heads and bloody noses BE-
fore each laddie gets his lassie? Yea,
verify, it would seem 50. What alterna-
tive would there lie? Shall two at least
out of every three swains 50 of and die
Of ! roken heart? This cannot b ex-
pected in that bleak climate for the rea-
son that only tropical suns are condu-
Give to that form Of idiocy. Shall. two
or more out Of every three Of the young
men emigrate? Hardly, since they
could find no more out Of the why spot
in which to bury their grief than their
present location. What remains? One
and only one expedient, - desperate -
the drowning mans straw. II the worst
comes to the worst . Mormon elder can
be sent for to Salt Lake, and each Of the
young women married to three or moro
Of the young men. Rather than face
this danger let the fair immigIants come
to Butte, where roses bloom all the year
round in the iipestone Pass, and eligible
young men are forced to marry China
women!

Too Much Paper.

The benign influence Of the electric
light will eventually serve to clear up
some of the dense darkness which . rep
resentative Of the local press Of the cap
ital city endeavors, perhaps unconscious.
", to disseminate. A recent incident Il
aprop0s.
Mr.. G. c. Ruthrauff, representing the
Brush Electric Light Company, a branch
Of which he successfully established in
this city. has recently been in Helena
on the same business. Come days ago
he sauntered into the store Of . promf.
uent merchant on Main street in that
city, and, notebook in hand, began q
conversation ~ follows:
II have been successful % far, and
would be glad to add your name to my
list Of subscribers for the electric -
Here the prominent merchant rather
abruptly broke in, saying:

PAPER now, and can't think Of subscrib'
ing for another, unless, perhaps, the
Butte MINER. Why, just think, l take
the Independent, and . man naturally
tries to read what he pays for"
Another interruption 1t this point
soon explained his error, and he Il now
a fast friend Of the electric light, con-
WINGED that It IL not another paper which
he will be obliged to read. But poor
man. how he must have suffered!
