The Montana Gold Boom Bursted.

A San Francisco merchant ''lets the cat out of the bag" which tells how the Ceur d'Alene boom was started. He said to reporter of the Salt Lake Chronicle:
 "It would surprise you to learn the means which the people having claims and property to sell in the new Fl Do- rado resort to for the purpose of giving the country a greater notoriety ] would probably have never known of one of the advertising dodges had I not been directly interested in tran saction which gave me true insight into the ways in which the country is advertised. l had in my cabinet about sixteen ounces of free gold quartz specimens from Amador county, which had purchased at from $5 to $10 an ounce. While in San Francisco the last time Kearny street broker named Abrams came to me with prop osition to purchase my specimens, and offered me $50 an ounce for them. The offer looked so large that I was induced to ask him what he could do with them and get his money back, after paying that figure. He produced letter from reliable man of Port land, Oregon, whose name I have for gotten, but who owns claims in the new district, authorizing him to buy up the best specimens of free gold quartz he could find and send them to hlm at Portland The Portland man agreed to pay $40 per ounce upon re- ceipt of the specimens.
 Well, I sold Abrams sixteen ounces at $30, and received his check for $4S0. I also learned from the letter that Abrams showed me that most of these specimens were to be sent to Spokane and railroad points near the new dis trict, and be exhibited as the produc- tions of the Ceur d'Alene district. afterwards learned from Abrams that he had received his $640 for the speci. mems, and that they were disposed of as the letter had stated.
 "The fact in the case is simply this, they haven't got any specimens out of the new district worth showing, and to keep up the boom they were com pelled to resort to such measures and trades as the one they made with Abrams of San Francisco. I have learned that Abrams is still engaged in buying the best specimens and sending them to parties near the Ceur d d'Alene." ..,

The date of their arrival at tho sanctuary is named as the 20th of May. The old story of Charley Me- Comas perishing by exposure in the Sierra Madre, of Mexico, which no one believes, is rehashed by Mickey and set ahoat through the agency of Crook newspapers, which delight to do his bidding.

The Arizona Methodist, edited by the Rev. Geo. H. Adams, is again on our table. It is neatly printed and abounds in instructive reading mat ter. From it's greatly extended circu- lation it will prove valuable adver- Using medium, and therefore il should receive the patronage of business men. We must remark, however, that while there are many capital selections, there are no original articles from any of the seven Methodist ministers in the territory, nor is there single notice of their work. This should be dis tinctive feature of territorial church paper. We want to know what is be- ing done in Arizona, and we would far rather make the literary acquaint- ance of our own territorial workers through that medium than any out side parties.

She IS closely related to General Hancock and sister of Mrs. Captain Ward, of Hancock's staff. If Carroll should be proven guilty as charged, he should not be allowed to remain q further pensioner upon the taxpayers of the government, who can find more legitimate use for their money than supporting man who eXpends it for the purpose of gratifying his animal propensity, in prostitution.

REPUBLICAN TERRITORIAL CONVENTION.


 The, following are the resolutions adopted by the Territorial Convention, in Phoenix, on the 25th ult.:
 Resolved, That endorsing the ad. ministration of the Republican party, both National and Territorial, and affirming our faith in Republican prin- ciples and our devotion thereto, we nevertheless deprecate the practice of federal officials who owe their posi- tions to the fact that they are Repub- licans, appointing to subordinate po- sitions men of Democratic proclivities, as being inconsistent, unfair and un- just to those who are maintaining Re- publican principles in the Territory, and tending to party Reorganization. We know that there are men in the Republican ranks, of ability and in- tegrity to fill every position within the gift of the party, and all other things being equal, they should be given the preference.
 Resolved, That the true and tried Republican, the great statesman, the man of brains and of heart, James G. Blaine, of Maine, is the choice of the Republican party of Arizona, for Pres ident of the United States.
 The first. resolution will not escape the notice of Gila Democratic officials who, by their votes, filled vacancies in county offices with Republicans when they, with show of consistency, could have given position to some of those who assisted in clecting them to the places they now hold.
