THE death Of the venerable Judge Gar
land, at Lynchburg, Virginia, a few weeks
ago, has inspired the Brooklyn Eagle to
make the following historical comparisons
He became a Mason in 1911. He voted
for Madison for President and for every
Democrat since, including Mr.. Cleveland.
A career SO venerable by a sort OF paradox
proves that this is still a young country.
A man who began life with the constitution
and with Washington's administration,
was 10 when Washington died, was 26 when
New Orleans was defended by Old Hickory,
was 80 when Webster replied to Hayne, was
GIL when Scott marched back from Mexico,
was II when Lincoln vas elected, raj 81 in
the Centennial year and IS when Mr.. Cleve-
land was ~inaugurated. To the Missouri
Compromise question he brought the ma
ture elaboration Of a man of Al. To the
Louisiana purchase he brought the bright
fancy of a boy of14. To the United States
Bank fight he brought the resolution OF a
statesman of the middle age. His youthful
veins were stirred with the achievements OF
the navy in the Barbary war. His seventy
years OF experience was startled by John
Browns instruction. When Reyes wrote
the "Star Spangled Banner this man was
fighting under it's folds. When Napoleon
died at St. Helena Judge Garland was a

was demonstrating beyond the Rio Grande

SILVER'S DANGER.

Our New York correspondent at the close
OF his letter on the copper trade, has the
following to say concerning the silver ques-
ton: MAY 1 finally be allowed to say a
few words on the burning silver question?
Any decided position taken by the Adj
ministration would be preferable to the
uncertainty prevailing at present. The
Herald advocates the stoppage of coming
silver entirely. Now the Herald is a power
fuence than your worthy contemporary, the
Inter Mountain, and continues to send forth
the ideas of eastern capitalists, bankers and
merchants. 1t is claimed that Secretary
Manning intends to call in the 81 and So
bills issued by the treasury, and to replace
the same with silver dollars, in order to
test the country's capacity for small coin
during the next four months and to be pre-
pared by Deeember LIST to state exactly,
how much silver can be disposed of Or,
rather, how much is needed for circulation.
Then Congress might be called upon to de-
eide. Interested circles are well pleased
with Secretary Manning's proceedings.
Even if coinage Of silver should stop. the
value OF silver would not show much alter
alton in the worlds market, because such a,
measure has been expected and was already
anticipated in the recent decline of silver"
The unheard of fall in the value Of silver
is undoubtedly due to the fear that the
coinage bill may be repealed by the new
Congress, OF which there is great danger. A
very strong sentiment has been created
against silver among the masses OF the peo-
pie in the East, by the newspapers in the
service OF the gold bugs OF New York. Con-
siderable missionary work has been done
by the gold men in the South and there is
every reason to lear that the cause OF silver
has lost a number of Congressman in the
South, who voted for the coinage act be-
fore. While the silver men have been pro-
c~rastinating and sleeping, the capitalists
been very active and have had agents
at work steadily, especially throughout the
The action of Secretary Manning in CALL
ing in the 81 and 50 notes is calculated to
show the capacity OF the country tor silver.
The result of the experiment is of unusual
to the silver men, since his report
will unquestionably be made the basis for
action Congress may be inclined
to take.

The proper ventilation OF mines is a sub
receive more serious consideration than
has been accorded it in Butte. Our mines
are growing deeper and deeper month by
month and the deeper they 60 the more i'm
portant that they should be carefully venti-
lated. The occupation OF the miner is
risky enough at best and every appliance
and safeguard that will protect his health
and his life should be insisted upon in the
mines. In Pennsylvania, Colorado, Illinois,
Nevada and other states devoted to mining
it has been found necessary to enac laws
upon the subject, compelling oper; tors to
sink air-shafts, provide escapes, erect
guards, etc. These laws are rigidly en-
forced through a state inspector OF mines
and his deputies, who have free access to
all mines and who are held accountable to
the people for accidents resultant from
their neglect to enforce the laws. The next
legislature of Montana will be asked to
enact similar laws for the protection of the
miners of this Territory. The demand will
come through the miners organizations
and common humane interests will force
compliance Herewith. The best results
that have been realized in the experience OF
other states should be ascertained and
u~talized in Montana. The simpler the law
the more effective it will prove. cit should
not bring needless burdens or unnecessary
expense upon the operator, yet it should
protect the underground workers as far as
science and practical experience have given
the world light in this direction. The sub
ject should be full and freely discussed, to
which end TIE MINER offers it's columns.

The Waterways Convention which has
been in session at st. Panl, for some days,
has adjourned sine die. During the session
the necessity of improving the Missouri and
Mississippi rivers and their tributaries was
fully established by the discussions and the
papers read. The resolutions that were
adopted demand that Congress make APP
preparations for the immediate and extern
sive improvement of the water ways men,
toned, in accordance with the plans
Of the Government engineers. 1t was
the opinion Of the Convention hat $780,
OOO,O 600 was not too much money to ex-
pend annually upon the rivers and harbors
Of the country. The Southern delegates
were as enthusiastic Upon the subject as

SAYS the Deer Lodge New North West:
1.-THE Butte MINER of last Friday takes oc-
casion to refer to a point that it seems to
us was too generally overlooked in the eulo-
gies of General Grant-his admirable home
life. Mrs. Grant was an honest, devoted,
loving wife, and among all the detractions
and defamations heaped upon General
Grant, there was never one challenging his
fidelity or moral character. The world has
had heroes and America has lauded and
canonized men whose real lives were weak
Or rotten to the core; but the life of Grant
as warrior and statesman was not more
exalted and brilliant than as husband and
father it was pure, gentle and loving; and
when he was to die, and be buried-to be
laid away in earth where he knew millions
would throng through ages-he chose not
place where wealth might pile colossal mar
or grand professions surge, but simply
II spot Of American ground where, when her
should come, the remains of his wife
might be laid by his. There is no brighter
phase OF his character than hat Of his do
mestic life,"

CATHOLIC r

1t has been proposed to hold. in London,
at an early day, a Congress of English.
speaking Catholics. It is proposed to have
the Congress consist OF delegates from all
quarters Of the globe where the English lam
guage is spoken. Cardinal Manning, the
foremost ecclesiastic OF the Catholic church,
is the protector OF the scheme. In a recent
interview he summarizes the most inn
portant matters that would come before
such a convention, as follows:
First-We should look for statistics of
the church and it's progress among the sew
eral English-speaking peoples OF the nations
represented.
Second-Our views on English popularde-
v~otions.
Third-Ecclesiastical music, on which we
should undoubtedly fall out. though we
agreed on one faith.
Fourth-Education, taking in ecclesiasti~
cal, the higher and primary education.
Fifth-A full consideration OF the work
ingman's interests and our families gen.
orally.
Sixth-The subject of social evils. Here
II labors would be of incalculable value.
You have no doubt heard of the painful
consideration of this subject that has been
recently forced upon TINS country.
Seventh-The subject of emigration
would be a field for much needed enlighten-
ment. Through ignorance ON this subject q
vast amount of misery is worked every
year and chiefly among those of our own
church. Where to emigrate, when to emf
CRATE and when not to emigrate, are points
on which much enlightenment is needed,
and have not the least doubt that in such
a great gathering Is this congress would be,
this matter would receive the fullest and
most reliable ventilation.
Eighth-One OF the great works of good
the congress could accomplish would be to
formulate some system of International
correspondence and cooperation among
English-speaking Catholics. But these are
only the heads OF some of the subjects that
would come up for consideration.
When questioned as to what was meant
by popular deyotions," he said he meant
the using of vernacular devotions, or devo-
tions in English, In Catholic churches. He
said that English-speaking people want
everything that is worth saying to be said
in their own language. 1t is this that gives
the English language it's aggressive charac.
ter.

AS the details are coming to light, the
massacre at Rock Springs looks all the
more horrible. The Cinnamon were shot
down like sheep, many OF them burned in
their. homes and others crawled to out OF
the way places to die OF their wounds. Every
where along the Union Pacific railway the
Cinnamon, including cooks and laundry
men, nave been ordered to leave, and they
show a very natural desire to comply with
the orders. The Cinnamon are focking to
the stations and are clamoring for passes
to Evanston, where the company is caring
for them. 1t looks as though there would
be a complete cleaning out OF the Chinese
along the main line. 1t is to be hoped that
this may be accomplished without further
bloodshedding.

The conduct of certain persons, who
would undoubtedly feel insulted if they
were not called ladies, in the theater Mon
day evening was a disgrace to Butte. The
public display OF v~ulgarity and bad-breed-
ing by a few involves the intelligence and
refinement of an entire community. It de-
stroys the pleasure OF those who attend
the performances to he edited and in
structed. Such conduct is an insult to the
people upon the stage, whose efforts and
feelings are entitled to consideration.
There is nothing in the lines of Camille to
warrant or to provoke such conduct; no
truer or purer sermon was ever preached
from Biblical source than this sermon
which the genius of Dumas has drawn from
life-Parisian life, if oulike. The audiences
at the Grand are entitled to protection
against such annoyance, and the manage
ment should not hesitate to demand the
withdrawal Of persons who are guilty of
such conduct, whether. men or m and
without reference to their meal or social
standing.

GEORGE G. MERR1cK, of Denver, has just
made an interesting contribution to the
discussion OF the silver question in the form
of a pamphlet designed to show that under
the existing laws of the United States any
person has the right to deposit fine silver, in
quantities not less than 1000 ounces each,
in any of our mints, and to have the same
coined into standard dollars, which shall
nave the same status as money rs the
standard dollars now coined by the Gov
eminent. Mr.. Merrick makes a very ingen-
ious argument in favor Of his theory. and
it is quite interesting, but we doubt II the
test which he ~counsels would stand on an
appeal to the United States Supreme
Court. It was the manifest intention Of
the Congress that enacted the Bland law to
limit the total coinage to 100000 per
month, and the Court would undoubtedly
SO hold, though hat law contains no re
pealing clause. Mr.. Merrick's pamphlet
will, nevertheless, be found OF great value,
it sets forth very clearly the laws OF
coinage.

The Mineral argus very %pertlnently and

talking sheer nonsense when it says a car

from the Territory because a man like Gov

terests first when they conflict with the in.
terests Of the Territory. Some men have
the public veal and woe at heart and are
able to see and do for themselves and

that stripe. When he makes Territorial in

then howl, but until then, if you can't hold

THE st. Paul Pioneer-Press says there
seems to be little doubt that somebody is
in the despicable business of swindling la
boring men with false promises of work on
the Canadian Pacific railway. It is not
surprising that SO many OF these poor men
should be misled, as the majority of them
are foreigners, strangers to the language,
and therefore unable to avail themselves OF
the benefits OF the newspapers. Otherwise
they would have known that for some time
past the Canadian Pacific has been discharg-
ing men instead! of employing new ones. En-
ployment agents who take advantage of
these men ought to be severely punished.

THE COPPER MARKET.

Under date OF September LIST. our New
York correspondent says the uncertainty
as to what price the Calumet and Hecla
mine, with it's monthly product Of 1000
900 pounds Of fine copper, would be able
to dispose OF their product has been solved.
It is positively stated that they have
agreed to deliver to consumers, for the next
six months, at IL cents. Dealers were not
allowed to enter the pool. Other contracts
with manufacturers have been made for
other brands, such az Arizona and Mon
tana copper, at 1OA cents. In the open
market all other brands command 1895,
and Baltimore and, Oxford at 1925. Chill
bars are quoted from London at f42 1Os.,
the lowest price on record.
The expected improvement in trade is
uot yet visible. A large quantity OF copper
silver matte changed hands through Mr..
Raunhcim's agency at SIX cents Uer pound
fine copper, while he sold pig copper in
bars at Sa cents per pound, crude weight
for export, and at 9 cents Tor domestic
consumption.
The Old Dominion Copper Company at
Globe, Arizona, has started again-both
mine and furnace-under the management
OF Prof. Trippell. He expects to produce
copper as cheaply as the Calumet 4 Hecla,
though the shareholders will reap no bene-
ft from it. The copper will be refined at
Baltimore, as heretofore. Thu profits win
60 toward paying the heavy debts OF the
company. Should these mines be fortunate
enough 30 produce largely for the next Two
years, the debts might be paid. This is,
however, very doubtful.
The copper Queen Company of Arizona
has fused with the Atlanta mine, and they
will work the latter mine to it's full "
1t is said that the Copper Queen
has given out entirely.
The Longfellow mine, superintended by
Mr.. Russell, for the Scotch company, does
well, and produces monthly
from $50 to 400 tons fine copper. Most OF
it's product is shipped to Europe.
He says that all information from Mon
is OF a cheering character, as far as
the Butte District is concerned. Nearly all
the copper mines show good ore in the
levels. He says further: at might
interest you to know that the Montana
Company speaks very fatteringly
Of it's superintendent, Professor Edward
Mueller; it is stated by good authority that
the company's Colusa mine looks better
than ever before. Also, that the Parrot
in it's 33O-foot level shows a fine ore
oedy, and that the mine, under Superinten-
lent Tibbey's management, is in splendid
shape. No doubt you will be better posted
On the Anaconda and other mines.
''The Mountain View and Shannon mines
are offered for sale here, but the figure
asked is thought to be too high by parties
who would otherwise like to invest. Be-
sides, they claim that the mine is only de-
to an extent of so feet West and
l25 feet East in the different levels, how
aver, showing magnificent ORE"
The outlook is rather encouraging,
few changes are liable to occur dur
ing the next fortnight.
