The Anderson Ral,y.

When Mr.. NJ w. Anderson, business
manager of the Bozeman Courier, was
in attendance at the territorial Press
Association in Helena he saw fit to
adopt an infant boy and brought the
baby home with him. Some journalistic
joker seized the opportunity to use his
name and prestige to palm off upon the
Helena Herald a romantic story of our
friend Matt. having been imposed upon
in the old way by "prepossessing fe-
male" and all that. Mr.. Anderson wrote
the Herald explaining the occurrence
and the communication was published
over the name Of w. w. Anderson, faith
er Of the accused. That gentlemen had
to vindicate his character as a grand
father by denying the infantine i'm
peachment. So things were mixed.
Meanwh the original story went the
rounds of the territorial press and slop-
ped over into Utah, Idaho and Dakota
and is now galivanting through papers
of the effete east as well as those of the
enterprising west. Moral: the wings
of a lie are infinitely wider than those
of fact

The Helena Jail Birds.

Six prisoners istcad of five escaped last
week from the Helena Jail, she sixth be-
ing man named Stringfeld. -Four have
been recaptured. Ashton and Clarke
were run down at place called Avon,
west of Garrison, on the railroad. They
attempted to avoid being taken, and be-
cause Ashton would not surrender, but
persisted in running, Sheriff Churchill
fred shot which took effect in his back,
causing wound of which he died. A
reward of $1,000 was offered for the
capture of Edmundson, who is one of the
Con Murphy gang, and under sentence for
fourteen years. Officers got upon his
trail and he and Dwyer, another of the
escaped prisoners, were found and re-
captured in the mountains near Helena.
Both were safely lodged in Jail. Nc
Cormick and Stringield at last accounts
were still at large. 1t is claimed that
gross carelessness on the part of the Off
GERS and guards ives the cause Of this es-
cape and heavy expense to the territory.

Last Thursday the west bound passen-
ger train was surrounded at Mingusville
by gang of drunken cowboys who began
their favorite pastime of shooting off their
revolvers. The mail and express cars
were closed and fastened in expectation Of
an onslaught. The ''boys" boarded the
train and getting conductor Joe Clark up
on the platform made him dance to the
music of popping bullets. They held the
train about fifteen minutes and then let
it pass. When the news was brought to
Glendive posse of officers was dispatched
to the scene of the fun and three of the
gang were arrested when they were
charged with assault with a deadly weap-
on and with OBTAINING the United States

Sale of the HOlneStak0.

As we go to press we learn that negotia-
tions have been concluded for the transfer
of the Homestake mine at Cooke to Butte
parties, believed to represent the Anacon-
da company. The transfer is made under
bond of 100000 for six months, with the
condition that possession of the mine is
not taken nor work is not begun until one
third of that sum has been paid. This
arrangement amounts to sale. The for
tunate owners of the Homestake are
George Huston, First National Bank,
George Smith, Sam Matthews and Sam

MOntana's Millions.

New Orleans Times-Democrat: Geo
graphically Montana is located in the
far Northwest, and as it thus stands, in
reality, monument Of agricultural and
mineral wealth, it is faithfully repro
duced in miniature at the exhibit in the
Government Building at the Exposition.
There, displayed with all the honesty Of
worth, commanding inspection as well
as tangibly and convincingly evidencing
it's products, Montana stands squarely
on her merits as the inviting home of
the miner, stock-raiser, farmer, and the
great country wherein labor is rewarded
with the choicest gifts of nature. The
Montana exhibit is exhaustive, telling
palmer than words the story Of her min
ing regions, her prosperity and her en-
terprise. In this showing the master
hands of Commissioners John S. Harris
and VIM. A. Clark are everywhere seen,
revealing that these gentleman have
spared nothing which could possibly
tender toward the fitting representation
of the territory they so creditably rep
resent. Meeting Commissioner Clark
yesterday the Times-Democrat repre-
sentative was conducted throughout
the space, and during the casual inspec-
ton of the treasures therein contained,
managed to CLEAN and garner store Of
authentic and valuable information
deemed worthy OF disseminating to the
furthest corner of the world TO begin
with the mineral wealth Of Montana
and it's gold, silver and copper products,
a specimen of copper ore coming from
the Anaconda mine at Butte was first
noted. This specimen, taken out at a
depth of 800 feet, will yield fully 20 per
cent Of copper, the highest grade. Be
side this valuable example Others are
shown varying in grade to the lowest
of IA per cent. These mines are operat-
ed by company having the largest re-
duction works in the world, a million
and half having been expended last
year in improvements alone. Turning
to an adjoining stand series Of boxes
containing ores from Clark's Collusa
mine were next seen, illustrating the
consecutive processes of the reduction
Of copper from the crude ore as taken
from the mine to the ingot copper. The
process in brief shows the ore as it first
appears crushed, then as sized in revolv-
ing screens, then concentrated by water
by jigs, producing concentrates carrying
about 30 per cent. of copper. Next it
appears as calcined to eliminate the sui
phur and other bases, then as smelted in
reverberatory furnace into "regulus"
containing IS per cent Of copper. After
further smelling operations the ore
again appears as white metal, carrying
about 7S per cent of copper; next as
blister copper, and lastly, after further
refinement by smelling, into ingots Of

The Inauguration.

1t was estimated that 100000 visitors
were in Washington on the 4th inst to
witness the Inauguration of Grover Cleve-
land to the office of president of the
United States. The procession was be-
lieved to number 10000. 1t was the
greatest pageant ever seen in the United
States. 1t was composed of regular troops,
clubs, societies and bands from all over the
country as we'll as private citizens. Wash
ington was decorated in the gayest style.
The retiring and the incoming presidents
occupied the same carriage in the process
sion to the platform, where Cleveland de-
livered his inaugural address, speaking
without manuscript. His address was
long, but did not Outline anything more
than general policy of administration.
He favored economical administration,
the Monroe doctrine iu foreign affairs, re-
vision Of revenue to reduce taxation, pro-
lection of the public domain from pur-
loining schemers and unlawful
occupation, fair and honest treat
mcnt of the Indian, suppression
of Mormon polygamy, prohibition
of pauper immigration, enforcement of
civil service reform in good faith, and
general reform of administration. At the
conclusion of his address Cleveland then
took the oath of office and was president
of the United States. In the evening a
colossal ball was held in the new pension
office building. The hall, 316 feet long
and I16 feet wide, was illuminated by 60
gas burners of 500 candle power each.
It was believed that $4,000 people were
there during the evening. President
Cleveland and party were of the number
So ended the greatest day in the social
history Of Washington, and one of the
greatest in the nations history.

General Grant.

1t is said by high medical authority as
also the statement of his family that Gen.
Grant is not likely to live more than a
month. He is suffering from cancer of
the tongue which is SO infamed and swol-
len that it is painful for him to speak or
even to take the liquid nourishment which
is his only food. He is terrible sufferer
from neuralgia and has had most OF his
teeth drawn to lessen the torture. He has
never recovered from the injury to his hip
received by the fall year ago. In fact
his whole physical system is fast giving
away. Though suffering terribly he COM
plains but little and continues to work un-
remlttingly upon his military autobiog-
raphy.

1t will not be the silver mining interests
alone that will suffer, but all mining in
terests. Silver is mixed with copper and
enables us to furnish copper at the present
low price without loss, but If silver were
DEPRECATED we couldn't do that So it is
with lead. 1t would also affect the gold
production of the country and reduce it
fully one third. There is at least SIC, ,OO0,-
600 Of gold that is taken out with the s,l-
yer annually. Fo1r-ifths of all the silver
mines would be obliged to stop work, and
not less than $1OO,OOO,OOO of business be
destroyed. There is no chance that any
thing will be done about it in congress.
but the discussion has knocked silver
down to 81 .O6 per ounce from $40. 1t
will go below a dollar if the coinage
should be stopped.

Arizona Gazette


The present administration has had
hut little opportunity so far of perfect
ing any refo,m work, owing to the fact
that there has as yet been no session OF
congress, 60 bring to its assistance acts
and laws necessary to support the mea-
sures looking to the welfare OF the
country. However, a few notieeable
acts may be called to the attention Of
the people as worthy Of their indcrse-
ment:
The amendment of Teller's order is
suing patents to the land grant Of the
Backbone railroad, l,y which portion
of the lands were saved to the govern
mant.
Tho order restoring to settlement a
large body Of land III California claimed
without authority, by the Southern
Pacific railroad
The decision that put an end to the
keavis Land grant fraud in Arizona.
The action taken to set aside the
patents for the fraudulent Maxwell
SI1b'iO III LtcW 40GAlCD.
Steps taken to prevent frands in
homestead, pre-emption and desert land
entries.
The order forbidding the fencing of
the public domain by large cattle com
panles
Resisting trespasses upon the Indian
territory
Making railroad companies select in
demnity lands at the nearest point,
within their limits, to their tracts
The report OF Inspector Armstrong
saving Sl05 900 annually appropriated
for feeding Arapahoes AMI Cheyenne
Indians that were not in existence.
Opening the cattle trail through the
Indian territory.
Settling the controversies in Indian
territory.
Inauguratins vigorous and earnest
campaign against the Chiiicahau In
dians.
Stopping the frauds and impositions
Of John Roach upon the government
Protesting American interests and
citizens in Panama and elsewhere.
Aholishing sineeures III the depart
ment at ashington.
Preventing the 100000 grab of the
Pacific Mail steamship company.
Inforcing the civil seryics law, and
placing faithful AM efficient men in
public places.
The acts above mentioned are re-
called to mind incidentally, and without
reference to data, and form but small
proportion Of tie system Of rsforn
which the present administration has
inausurated. The showing is not such
as to inspire the feeling ofalarn which
the Republicans SO vigorously predict
ed in the last campaign, neither is It
apt to impair the credit Of the country.
Cleveland is making no mistakes.
