ball has been appointed to it, and has
assumed its duties. Mr.. Burchard's OBJ
jections will come under review when
the senate shall convene and appoint
ments shall be considered.
The new director of the mint has ac-
quired the scientific knowledge which,
as far as learning goes, adapts him ad-
mirably to the appointment given him.
He is a Massachusetts man, born at Sa-
lem in the year 1886. His course of
education included attendance at Har-
ward university, the mining school of
Freiberg, Saxony, and the university
of Gottingen. When he had completed
his course at the last named seat of
learning, he took the degree of doctor
of philosophy. Upon returning to this
country he found employment in var
ious geological surveys ordered by the
federal government and several state
governments.
In the war DR.. Kimball had place as
Assistant Adjutant-G General in the army
of the Potomac.
His scientific attainments have re-
ceived ample recognition. He has been
Wice-President Of the American Insti-
tute of Mining Engineers, and was Pro-
fessOr of Economic Geology at Lehigh
University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania,
when given his present appointment.
AS DR.. Kimball is President Of the Ev-
eritt Iron Company of Pennsylvania, it
is presumable that he possesses superior
business as well as scientific qualifica-
tons.

AS TO WOOL.

The experience of this season satisfac-
torliy demonstrates two things, viz
| That northern Montana produces the
| choicest wool and that Fort BrntOn is
the best market for this product in the
territory.
The fact that 17c and 18c has been the
ruling price here against 14c to 16c else
where is ample proof of the first propo-
sition. Although the market east is not
nearly as good as at this time last year
the prices realized by growers who
market at Fort Benton are about the
same, showing that the woods of north
ern Montana stand in high favor among
manufacturers and purchasers east.
One of our most prominent wool men,
who is thoroughly posted in all depart
ments of the business, predi cts that
next season the direct Representatives of
manufacturers will be here in numbers
to buy our woods, and that the competi-
ton will be greater than ever before,
with the most desirable results for our
growers.
The fact that Fort Benton is in the
center of this favorite wool district and
at the head of navigation on the Mis-
souri, river, where favorable freight rates
must always be had, insures the fact
that this is to be the market for northern
Montana. The good results obtained by
shippers the present season will result
in largely increased shipments next,
Fort Benton the wool center
of the northwest.

The Riel Business.

OTTAWA, Ont, July 18.-The ques-
ton of American citizenship which
Riel's counsel now claim for their eli
ent, is embarrassing the government.
II he is to be tried as an alien, heshould
have been dealt with by court martial.
It is now to late too follow that course,
as he has been turned over by military
to the civil authorities. The trial is set
down for the Goth inst, but as the
crown prosecution are not prepared to
go on, it will probably be postponed un-
til they have time to decide on a defin-
ite course in the action. It is under
stood that sympathizers of Riel in the
United States are responding in gen.
erous way to his appeal for assistance to
enable him to have fair trial. It is
difficult now to find any one who will

Squally at salt Lake.

OMAHA, Neb., July 15.-Gen. How
ard, commanding the department. of
the Platte, returned to Omaha from
Salt Lake City, in which place he spent
the Fourth of July. He says there is a
great apprehension there over the feel
ing between the GentiIes and the Nor
morns, which has been greatly intensi-
fed by the insult offered by the Nor
mons to the flag. The end is not yet,
and serious trouble may occur at any
hour on the slightest pretext. The
Gentiles and United States soldiers are
very indignant. The bitterness Of feel
ing is much greater than the public is
aware of, as the half has not been told
in published accounts. In anticipation
of an outbreak being precipitated any
day, the war department has made
for it. BY order of Gen.
the troops that were to leave
Fort. Douglass and Fort Laramie for
Kansas to suppress the Cheyennes have
been retained at those posts. A col
lisiOn between the Mormons and Gen
tiles is looked for on the oath INST,

Concealed Treasure.

There is some excitement at present
over the near approach of the liberating
of the road agents who robbed stage
near Blackfoot, Idaho, in 1868, and
whose term in the penitentiary is now
nearly ended. They were successful in
the robbery and got away with 500
pounds of gold dust from the treasure
box of the coach. Fearing capture they
buried their booty. Their fears were
well founded, for they were shortly af-
terward captured and sent to the peni-
tentiary. During their imprisonment
numerous attempts were made by 9TH
ers to find the hidden treasure, butal to
no avail. If the robbers did hide their
booty it in all probability yet remains
where they concealed it. It is thought
that the released prisoners will at once
make for the "cachen and disinter the
gold. The Review says that arrange
ments are being made to follow up and
watch the movements of the prisoners
as soon as they are released.
