xeaLp,s INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION.

John s. HAIRS, Of Helena, and
Wm. A. Clark, Of Butte, have been
appointed as commissioners for Mon
tana, upon whom falls the arduous
task Of properly representing u tern
tory in the Worlds Industrial and Cot
ton Centennial Exposition, which will
be opened at New Orleans, La, on the
Ist OF December, 1884 and continue
six months. The aim Of the commits
sioHers is to make a creditable repre-
sentation Of the unparalleled mineral
wealth OF Montana, and to thai end
have appointed two commissioners for
each county upon whom they rely for
specimens information, etc. For
Mesgher county, Louis Rotwitt, of
White Sulphur Springs, and A. VI.
Esler, Of Maiden, have been chosen.
Though these gentlemen viii exert
themselves to the end that this county
is httingly represented, yet the hearty
cooperation Of miners throughout the
county is essential TO make the col
lection complete. Samples from the
several districts in this county cannot
fail to attract attention. In Warm
Spring and Cone Butte districts alone
a selection of ore can be procured
that viii vie in value and attTactiveness
with ores from any part of the con-
tinent. Such a display would result in
great benefit TO the districts. When
the commissioners designate their plan
of action, there should be no h%esitancy
on the part of miners and mine
owners to promptly respond.

The so-called Independents and kick
ers base their objections to Mr.. Blaine
mainly upon two sentences in some
business letters written to Mr.. Warren
Fisher, concerning the purchase OF
some railroad stock. All agree that the
correspondence relates to a private
same right to make that purchase that
any man has to make investments?
Had he not the right to purchase this
property, or any other, on the best
terms he could make? Had he not the
right then to say, for the purpose of get
ting the stock on favorable terms that
she did not feel that he should be a
deadhead in the enterprise If he en-
barked in it, and "that he could see
various channels in which he knew he
could be useful? Undoubtedly, unless
he met to say that he was willing to
prostitute his office to promote the in
terests of the company. Now let us
see if there is anything in subsequent
events to warrant such conclusion
The company was already organized,
had got its grant extended several
months prior to the date of this CORE
spondence. 1t had had its charter for
years. What did tho company want?
Presumably they wanted just what 9TH
er managers of such property want-to
sell what they have to sell to the very
best advantage. Mr., Blaine was then,
as now, a man of recognized business
ability and standing. He believed, as
he had perfect right to believe. that
he could be of service in placing this
property upon the market. He be-
lieved, and he had perfect right to be-
lieve, that he could render substantial
service to the managers in helping de-
eide the general policy of the manage
ment. Mr.. Blaine called attention to
these things in order to make as good a
bargain as he could. Can any fair
minded man dispute his right to do So?
Furthermore, the company never did
ask for any further legislation and new
er received any such aid or service from
Mr.. Blaine as his enemies claim he in
tended The justice of his previous
ruling in favor of the road has never
been questioned. Now is there anything
in this matter to justify any one in
Directing to the principles of the man
who is conceded to be the ableSt states
man of his day? The fair minded vot-
er will say no and vote accordingly.
