PANEGYRIC TO THE MINER,

In contributing series of interesting
papers 10 the Virginia City ENTERPRISE, up.
on the silver question, Hon. NJ. J. Farrell,
Of Austin, Nevada, paid the following pan.
egyric 10 the miner: "He is pioneer of
the world. He braves all risks and dan.
gers and opens up the wilderness for the
more timid. He occupies the waste places
Of the earth, which but for him would
never benefit mankind. He endures hard
ships, dangers and privations, and after
wearing out his life for the benefit of man.
kind generally, dies poor. Unlike that of
the farmer and manufacturer, his con:ribu.
tion to the world is practically imperisha.
Bile, ard the dollar that comes from his
hand is not that transferred from one to
another OF the money already existing, but
it is dollar wrested from the bowels OF
the earth and added to the worlds treasure.
He sends forth from the barren Businesses
Of nature a stream Of wealth that flows
through all the channels Of trade and com.
merce, imparting life and vigor to the bu.
siness Of the world, and giving bread to
earth's tolers to its remotest confines"

\ NEW MINING DECISION.

Secretary Lamar, on the 10Th inst, issu.
ed an order Of interest to miners every.
where on the public domain. On Decem.
Der !, 1854, while thousands Of mining
claims were pending an order was made BY
Secretary Teller that ON application for
lode claims where the survey conflicts with
a prior claim and the ground in conflict is
excluded the applicant has no right to the
portion OF any vein or lode the top or apex
Of which lies within such excluded ground
unless his location was prior to May 10
1872. The order made on the 10Th puts
things back just where they were before
Secretary reller's order was issued, as fol.
lows: "1n entries made prior to the re.
ceipt BY the register and receiver Of the
circular Of December, 1854, the survey, il
free from objection under the former prac.
tice, need not be amended to conform ia
the provisions OF paragraph, two Of said
circular. All decisions under said circ ula,
in conflict with the foregoing may, to tina,
extent be recalled"

A REAL LIFE ROMANCE CORRECTED.

a few weeks ago the TRIBUNE publish
ed a short article, under the heading Of "a
real life romance stating that the discov.
erv of II. A. Munro Butler .Johnstone, in
the capacity Of tramp in Turkey. was
somewhat romantic incident, and added to
the article: Butler r.Johnstone is we'll
known to the mining men of Montana,
Idaho and Utah." The article, credited to
the TRIBUNE, was copied quite extensively
BY Rocky Mountain journals. 1t fell un-
der the eyes Of Capt. John w. Plummer,
superintendent Of the Granite Mountain
Mining Company, Of Philipsburg, who de.
sires to see proper correction of the mat.
ter made. Butler. .Johnstone is not tramp
in Turkey, and he never tramped around
from hare,n to harem in the sick Sultan's
empire. The absurd story tina, Butler
Johnstone had reached so low level as to
become common tramp is canard Of the
whole cloth. The story, once started,
gained wide circulation, but who invented
it will be difficult for any fellow to find out.
Through the courtesy Of Capt. Plummer a
letter from Butler.Johnstone, to the Cap
tain is before US. The letter is dated at
Nice, Aples Maritimes, France. The let.
ter is mostly of personal and private
character, but in it the writer makes in
quiry about mines and mining matters in
Montana showing that he is still interested
in mining enterprises. II. a. Munro
Butler, ,Johnstone will be remembered by
all the prominent mining men of Mon.
tana. He is polished and cultivated gen.
| tlcman, an ex.member Of the English Par
Lament, and with other English capitalists
invested heavily in Montana and Utah
mining properties. One of their mining
investments that did not 'pan out" was
the purchase OF the Broadway mine, at
Silver Star in Madison County. In the
purchase of that mine, the building Of a
large gold mill and placing machinery on
the mine about 100000 Of English money
went where the woodbine twineth or where
the whangdoodle mourneth for its first
born. The ore in the mine turned so base
and refractory that il could not be worked
and the company virtually abandoned the
property. OF Bu,ler.Johnstonc's mining
experiences in Utah we know little and
have read less. Having corrected the
Statement: that Butler. tombstone is a tramp
in Turkey our conscience is easy. Our
contemporaries who published the 'real life
romance can right the matter by giving
publicity to the needed correction.

HISTORY OF MONTANA.

The Helena independent says it Is graf
fying to learn that the History Of Montana
which was in active progress about two
wears ago, will be published at an early day.
especiallv since the impression had become
pretty general that the entire enterprise
had failed. The delay was occasioned
principally by Mr.. Stewards DEATH which
occurred before matters had assumed SUCH
a tangible shape as to insure the uninter'
rupted progress Of the work. The por'
traits and lithographic views have mostly
been executed, and judging from sample
of the latter shown US, we feel sure that the
history will be first class in every respect.
!. NJ. Runk, of the publishing firm OF War
ner, Beers l. Co., is in Helena making
necessary additions to the history, correct
ing personal data, and assuring the many
subscribers that they will be benefited by
what may have seemed to them unneces'
sary delay. Those who have made pay.
ments on their orders will be duly credited,
and no further collections will be taken un'
til the delivery, which will take place in
the fall sometime.

Dawson Of Company l, West Virginia

that the enlistment was for the purpose Of
escaping to the Federal lines at favorable
opportunity. In his decision the Commis.

captured soldiers to Join the enemy for the

ASNIyERsARY POEM.
dedicated to Montana's Twenty-tlrst Annlser'
sary by Al. ". CRowELL.J

Montana, hail! We greet to-day the Man
Whose days of youth have run their little span
Earnest of purpose, mind and heart sedate.
With sureness of prosperity elate,
Thou Dearest well the laurels on thy brow,
The honored scepter, amaranthine bough.
Not as child thy fair career began
Thou never vert being less than man:
Strong, sturdy-limbed and full OF rugged grace
Gods impress, HONOR. stamped upon thy face
Each ripened year shall new perfection give.
And each perfection be but born to live.
King of the West and all his broad domains
Rich as the blood that courses in his veins!
The golden hills worthy throne and meet
The whole wide world footstool for his feet.
Westward the star of Empire takes its way,
To halt above MONTANA, there to stay;
Above the grandest empire Of the West
The pilgrims" occidental goal and rest.
Tn ungarnered beauty of the fruitful plains
The ruddy ore that leaps in flooded veins
The Arcadian clearness Of the crystal creek
And rivulet the broader streams that seek
These are the attributes our Aidenn holds
Cast in the fairest form that Nature molds;
Here rugged grandeur, wooded hills and dales,
Here ripping waters slake the pleasant wales;
Gods benison is ever in the air
Gods truths betray their presence everywhere
Gods smile forever fingers on the earth,
Where Love perfected here is given birth.
The blessed heavens bend above the scene,
And perfect airs forever flow between!
Here TINE is young-the ever-howing sands
Turn swiftly in his ever-glowing hands.
The rarest blossoms deck his girdle gay
About his head eternal sunbeams play:
With arms extended, brow benign and mild
He welcomes here each dear, adopted child:
With beaming eyes and benediction sweet,
Like AZ maid exults her love to greet!
Oh, Promise Land! better q rood with thee
| Than all the empired islands of the sea.
So shalt thou reign tho centuries shall roll
| A Kingdoms sovereign and an empires soul!
King of the West! All hail thy natal dag!
Let still Progression mark thy onward way;
Ne'er shall the Star of Empire sink in night
But blazefore' for Honesty and Right;
Above Nations banner floats unfurled
A banner proud to wave DER such a world!
Cast first thy vote for Justice and for Truth
That SO thy votes be many more, in sooth;
Rule long and we'll, and lead, as now. the van,
As thou hast led it since thy rule began.
Thy people love thee, parent, guardian, friend!
MONTANA, hail! and blessings without end!
