Bureau Of Correspondence.

The most successful mining camps,
such as Leadville, Deadwood and others
have been the best aducrtiscd camps.
Butte presents every evidence OF IN APP
preaching "Boom," but its prospects
have in no small degree been injured by
the misrepresentation Of an Interested
press, anxious lest the prosperity of
Butte should injure the prospects OF
their own locality.
Mr.. Platte Burr is engaged in organ
izing "Bureau of Correspondence" for
the purpose Of disseminating generally,
Information a. to The resources AMI
prospects of this district.
The enterprise deserves the support OF
the business community and will cer-
tainly have the hearty cooperation of
the press Of Butte.

Several days ago the HISER took o.
easion to speak Of the fact that come
persons unknown had through mischief
Or carelessness exposed the supply pipes
Of the Butte Water Company and there
by caused them to freeze, the company
having carefully covered up the pipes to
some depth, in order = prevent any
possibility Of such results.
The facetious local editor Of the
Helena Independent, in his search for
information among his exchanges, saw
this paragraph and Immediately went
into an extasy of merriment, after many
throes giving birth to tie following:
1.-THE MINER, in speaking Of the new
water cOlmpany's pipes freezing up, says
it was caused by the cold weather. In
Journalism there IL nothing like being
lucid aud exact. Now, ii our hilltop
city contemporary had not stated that
those pipes were frozen by the cold
weather, the public would always have
been in doubt as to the cause; 1t might
have been imagined even that the trOu-
ble was the result Of hot wave Or spe-
cial act Of the city council
Now the language used by the MINER
was this:
1.-The freezing was caused by the pipes
having been uncovered and exposed to
the weather."
Ifthis very proper explanation had
not heen made by tine MINER, it might
indeed have been supposed that "a hot
wave" did uncover the pipes by melting
the snow which had been piled over
them. But nobody would ever suppose
that this result had been accomplished
ny Especial act Of the City Council"
Our Council is not affected in this way,
and seldom resorts to such desperate
expedient az Especial act" If by any
possibility quorum should he secured,
and any action, special. or general, Ike
taken, will the facetious local editor of
the Independent bc kind enough to fire
cannon and let US hear the news:

Malone endeayOred TO run through the

astounded and appalled, when think OF

OF greater magnitude than any in which

their political enslavement, the deprivation
OF their rights and liberties, and the degre-

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Whilst our Democratic journals have

newspapers is highly important and benc-
fetal; but without the most efficient rs
