The document room Of the House OF
Representatives is in receipt of many let
lers OF late from members Of Congress
asking to have forwarded to them such
documents and bills as may be on hand
touching the question OF customs and tar

that the champions Of tariff discussion
are arming themselves preparatory to an
active campaign next Winter, notwith-
standing the fact that the Pro,ectionist
element in the Democratic party is max

equally persistent in the other direction,

A hand of genuinely savage Apaches
were shown at the recent Santa Fe fair
1t was hard matter to get them to 60
there They had seen few white faces
except behind a raised musket When
the wagons were ready to start several of
the foremost braves, who had been al
most persuaded to make the trip, refused
to 60 along. The sight of railroad train
awed the Indians into exclamstions Of
''De-sa ra-ta-ra' (wonderfuD, many times
repeated with whispered breath. These
barrel-breasted fellows, who would face
bear empty handed, were afraid to step
into the cars, and the squaws cringed be-
hind their trembling lords. At last they
suffered themselves to be led falteringly
aboard, and as the train moved OF, they
covered themselves with their blankets
and dropped panic stricken between the

"Waukeep Miller on Butler.

IT il now about eleven years, reck on,
since first called upon Butler here in
this city at law office Mr.. Spofford,
Caleb Cushing's law partner then, and
Senator Sumner were with me. / dis
liked this man before ! met him !
lik ed him a great deal less after We met.
But Spofford, as we'll as his wife, Harriet
Prescott Spofford, name as famous in
literature as is that Of Buffers in law,
insisted that he was the gentlest and
truest Of men. As Butler pressed me to
visit him, and as / was stopping with
his friends, the Spoffords, at the time, /
went with them and spent some days at
his country place. But ate his bread
reluctantly. and never learned to like
him from that day to this. never
could quite get at him. He always talk
ed to me, as if talking from behind him
self. AS FOR his being our next presi-
| dent, that is consummation rs uudesir-
able as it is impossible. He is not want
ed. He is not needed. This state OF
Massachusetts,, however, needs inst such
man, knocker- out, q sort of mental
! John l.. Sullivan. She needs him she
has him let her keep him. hope he
will continue to he her governor as long
as it is possible. AS for what he has
done in this matter ofskinning the dead
and tanning their skins, l look upon
him merely as an informer-one who
has turned states evidence against his
fellows in crime. For he must have
known of this all the time. And with
his great power and capacity. his wealth
and legal ability, he could at any time
as sovereign citizen, done all this be
fore waiting to become governor. How
ever, he has shown himself to be abou
the best man in the state of Massachus
etts. But that is saying very little fol

West of the Missouri.

The recent invasion Of Wyoming by
Boutwell, surveying party, has stirred
up great deal Of speculation as to the
intentions Of the party and their back
ers. The route mapped is that over
which the presidential party recently
travelled from For: W.;shakie 10 the
Yellowstone park. Some enthusiasts
affect 10 believe il means a north and
there 10 connect with the Denver &
New Orleans line and thence TO the Gulf
Others map ont new east and west line
from Chicago to the park, over which
the products Of great W heat and stock
raising region would pass. Neither OF
these schemes have much foundation to
rest upon. To begin with the Sioux
City & Pacific, Chicago & Northwestern
and Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul are
moving in that direction with reasona-
be rapidity, which Will preclude, posi-
bly, for all time, the construction Of a
fourth line to Chicago. The Sioux City
road will probably reach the Blacl. Hills
in the conrse of another year. The

Gently returned from trip over the in
tervening region and report themselves
we'll satisfied with the route and the
prospects Of the country which would
be tributary 10 it. The NorthwesterH
and Milwaukee are pushing through the
part Of Southern Dakota as fast as the
DEVELOPMENT Of the country will admit
and business secured.
Perhaps the safest explanation Of the
present move is TO ascribe it to the I'm
ion Pacific, 10 protect itself from the
diversion of traffic caused by the open
| ing of the Northern Pacific. The mum
Der of tourists to the park will increas'
rapidly now that the discomforts o
staging are done away with. The North
ern Pacific with its branch to the parl
makes it the most desirable route, Will
which the Union Pacific and Utah 4
Northern cannot compete. Besides
road say from Cheyenne north woulC
secure the ends aimed at by north aa'
south or an east and west line, connect
ing by direct line with Denver on Tia
south and Omaha in the east
There can be little doubt that tn
Union Pacific will build north through
Wyoming at an early day. 1t has al
ready agreed with Chegenne and Lara

voted, to build 100 miles Of road With
certain time, and with the completio
OF the Oregon Short Line the constru'

Tho Queensland Tin Mines.

The following from London Mining
Journal would Indicate that the forma-
tion in which tim is found in Queensland
is the same as that Of the Harvey range:
"The tin is found in water-worn and
crystalline cubes. varying from minute
particles to pieces exceeding pound
weight On certain beaches it contains
many so called rubies, and m parts an
gular unworn masses interningled with
quartz have been found, indicating the

Though the numerous creeks running
from this granite range have been ex-
tremely rich in alluvial tin, they are but
shallow and Of no great extent perhaps
80 miles square would cover the known
payable area, and Of this it is only the
creeks, ravines, and flats that repay
labor, though tin can be readily perceiv-

this outcrop apparently consists o! a

At intervals from the, surface TO the
