PHILIpsBuRG, June II, 1sse.-The works
Of the Algonquin Company stiIl remain idle.

disguised bon'lholders for every dollar st" is
worth. l hear that
REORGANIZATION Is TALKED or.
Should this arrangement be consummated,

ny, initiating the examp!r OF the Northwest
ern Company twho, In accepting the liabili-
ties of the old Northwest Company, entirely
forgot to pay their OWN. All present un-
paid accounts held against the Algonquin,

pay them, be transferred 10 somebody else
for that purpose and will eventually in the
quiet seclusion of Glass q, meet the resnrrec-
ton In the shape of an outlawed Judgment.
can forgive Frank L. for his ung.rerous
prophecy which predicted the fall of his enc
mites, 81. & ID. for the loss of their mine,
tthey may get better,, in the happy anti, !.
patton of new company, say the
"ALGoNQuIsApE,"
With special Glass G. 1t awakens the most
profound emotions of gratitude in the breast
of every Pbilipsburger to think that the ex-
amples of the illustrious men who fixed up
the Northwest business yet survive In the
mortgages of the Algonquin Co. Well, gen.
tlemen, bring on your new company, and a
new set of books, 1t will be impossible for us
to go back oil either. OF course if you fail
We'll kick, a trifipE ecccntfiGity uf ours
which we trust you will over!uok, but in any
and every event reorganiZe, and let your
motto be the old nursery maxim. IF Mt first
you don't succeed, try, try again." In fact
you may reorganize an inleiinitn Number of
times by living strictly up To the incalcula-
BILE precepts of that excellent suggestion.
THE UNCERTAINTY OF Law,
William Wninstein is rrofound;, and un-
utterabiy disgu,ted. IA matter, sadly
mixed up with one or two hogs, the same
number of Cinnamon and our local court, he
Is the loser of costs to the value of many
shekels. My advice, William. is for you to |
abstain entirely from hsgs, Cinnamon, and
lazy. All three are beneath the notice of any |
save a butcher, a railroad contractor, aud a |
mining company. With a few trifiing ex-
ceptions the rulings of the court were in |
Williams favor, but those noted as against |
him were sufficient in size and Intensity of /
law to fill 7-oct volume. shall never for /
get friend Weinsteins facial expression upon |
hearing the Judges instructions to the Jury.
For diabolical vindictiveness it outranked
ever saw. In fact our court, as a
witness. Is holy terror.
MINING MATTERS.
The Trout mine is hosting good ore from
the 5GO-foot level. About 200 tons of rock lie
on the dump, ready for any mill that wants
IL, and any quantity can be hoisted from the
lower Slopes under the same conditions.
1t is rumored that John Caplice, Esq, has
raised money TO pay up old accounts against
The mine, and will push deeper at once. Mr..
G. Is a square man, and will make his word
good. All he wants is time, something
every one here is willing to grant him.
The Scratchawl mine has the within over
he new shaft completed, and everything
'eady for deep sinking. The Squire don't
ARE n - whether he hoists ore or not, he
simply wishes to avoid the Salmon foot.wall.
Frank Marsh, an agreeable gentleman of
icially connected with the Internal Revenue
Department of the Territory, paid us flying
5isit this week. Frank Is an expert in sur
1eyiug, draughting, telegraphing, and insur-
lnce, besides being an accomplished must
ian. He ought to come over here and get
rich.
The Hope mine Is running full shifts. The
IRE reserves In sight are simply inexhausti-
Die. The mill runs steadily.
Ben Degenhart, wealthy Pipestone
ancher, came over last week and sold all his
100. He speaks well of the other side, and
Predicts brilliant future for Butte, like
very body else does from that section.
Recent advices announce the bonding of
# the East Comanche mine This fine
property should be worked, the ore is abund-
mt and high grade.
Phil McGovern, of Deer Lodge, came over
ecently and camped a few days. He is one
If the old timers, a merry, good fellow, and
l.
him in the western country.
Z. ID. Holland returned home on the 10TH
Time touches Eli lightly. He had three Of
ers of marriage while over here, but gently
md firmly refused all, protfering all the ex-
use that he didn't expect TO survive Magiunis'
efusal to accept the next Democratic nomi-
lation for Delegate. Fear not, old Flint
Jreeker, no such calamity awaits the party.
