THE LOST CABIN LODE.
what an OId-Timer" Says About 1t.
DEER LODGE, January 10, 1884.

EDITOR Men North West:
SIR Having seen sundry illusions, sarcas-
tic and otherwise, lately appearing in the
columns Of the Territorial press, bearing on
the subject of the famous "Lost Cabin Lode"
l beg leave to offer the true version, as estab-
lished by personal observation.
In the spring OF II was one of party of
twenty who started from the head of Clarke's
Fork TO go to Hart Mountain TO prospect

party were Ben Anderson and Tom O'Neill,

Next m, rning we broke camp and followed

found here he remains of cabin, and trail
cut through tie timber, leading in from the
northwest. The appearances all tended to
show that the pa, ties who built the shack
were Californians On entering this place
they had struck a blu CHI slate red-rock, and
the country looking ia 'oraole' had Drought

THAT PICTURE.
How Deer Lodge Impresses Some OF Our
Exchanges.

This morning we received a copy Of the
NEW NORTHWEST, Of Deer Lodge, dated
January 4th. 1t carried IN its fold birds
eye view of this picturesque little town,
which in appearance is more like Bozeman
than any town in Montana. Thanks for the
courtesy Bozeman Chronicle.
The NEW NORTHWEST has our thanks for
a photographic birds-eye view of the beauti-
full town in which 1t is published. As there
is no rose without thorn, SO in the fore
ground of this charming picture looms up
the penitentiary, where so many of our
friends-but the subject is too painful to con-
tinue-Liuingston Herald.
We found last week, neatly folded inside
the New NORTHWEST, a well executed
bird's-eye view of Deer Lodge. 1t shows up
the "loveliest village of the plain" to good
advantage, though Ii does not fiatter that
lively city. Deer Lodge is making slow but
steady steps toward the front, and 1t will not
be many years before she will rank in size
with Butte, yea, even with the Territory OF
Helena-Dalon Tribune.
We acknowledge the receipt of New Year
supplements TO the NEW NORTH WEST, con-
sisting of excellent bird's-eye views of Deer
Lodge City and Bozeman, the rival garden
towns" OF the Territory. They are excellent
Autographs, and very correctly illustrate
those thriving towns, though we think it Is
q pity that the artist had "a constitutional
objection to making fences, J" the introduction
of which would have given much more
picturesque appearance to the excellently
laid-out streets of both cities, which are
Hoted for the elegant fences with which the
blocks In the residence portions are enclosed.

Registration Laws and Judges of
Elcesi0u.

The Democrats in the General Assembly
see the necessity for general law with re.
gard to the appointment of registrars and
judges Of election. They VIII probably
move in this matter at the caucus Tues
day night.
The plan will probably be to pass law
vacating all the offices OF all the judges
and registrars OF election i'm Virginia, and
constitute in each city and county IN Flee
toral Board. Said Electoral Board to be
elected either by the Senate or by the Gen
eral Assembly, and, after qualifying, to ap-
point for its city or county all the registrars
and all the judges OF election.
This done and the rotten registration
laws revised fairer elections hereafter will
be the order in Virginia.
Where needed new registrations can be
provided for.
The Democratic caucus has very wisely
appointed a Committee on Order Of Busi-
ness. That committee can hardly name for
advancement Il measure OF more general
Importance than new state law governing
registration and the appointment OF regis
trars and judges OF election.
That's about what the people OF Rich
mOnd think. If such is the fact IN this
citadel OF Democracy the need Of il must
exist in all parts Of the State. The present
laws are u tumble OF looseness and incon-
>stencies.

on board the American schooner John B.
Hanils, Jr., lying in the harbor or Sagua
La Grande, Cuba. Colonel Nunez had
formerly been an officer in the patriot

barked on the schooner as member OF its
crew, not intending to land on Cuban SOIL
The schooner reached Cuba January 18th,
and two days afterward a demand was
made for the surrender Of Colonel Nunez.
This was refused by the schooner's captain,
and an armed crew from man-of-war
then took him prisoner. DR.. Nunez left
for Washington Friday evening TO lay the
case before the Secretary Of State.
