The Helena Mining District.

A party consisting of Messrs. Hendryx
and Bristol, of Connecticut, and Col. Hud-
mutt and Major Walker, of Helena, wen.
out yesterday TO take look at the newly
developed mines of the Helena district, a
few miles west of Helena. All were much
pleased with the outlook for that district,
and one of the party told our reporter the
following notes concerning the mines,
which will be of interest to the public
There are about twenty meh at work at
the camp, who sleep in tents and board at
a restaurant kept in a similar house. Some
development has been made on all OF
the following lodes, each of which has
more or less ore on the dump: Helena,
Good Luck, Christmas Gift, Cabinet, and
Grass Valley. Shafts are dug to various
depths on all these lodes, ranging from 30
to 110 feet deep. The Helena lode is the
most thoroughly worked, the shaft being
now down 10 feet, and ore on the dump
in the neighborhood of 80 tons. The
Helena and the Christmas Gift lodes are
the only ones now being worked. Speci-
mems of ore from the former at the depth
of 10 feet show that the vein is growing
richer as it descends. The prospects are
very iiattering and grow brighter every
day. When our new smelter is erected
the ore from these mines will find ready
market within two or three miles from
the leads-a consideration that renders
them all the more valuable.

than answered the most exalted expecta-
tions. To write an address for such oc.
casions and to do it gracefully and well is
perhaps one of the most difficult tasks that
can be given to an orator on account of
many things too numerous to mention but
apparent to every speaker; but the man
ner in which Messrs. Craven and Thorn
burgh overcame these difficulties and pro-
duced such fine compositions is worthy of
the highest praise. Both orations were ex-
cellent and both excellently delivered.
The Helena orators on future Decoration
Days will have no easy task to make their
orations superior to, or even compare in
beauty of sentiment, style and diction
with the mastery efforts of last Saturday

TRUE to its cowardly instincts, the hide
peadea, exults at the opportunity offered
by his absence to bushwhack Chief Justice
Wade. The Judge took his departure
yesterday morning to visit his venerable
father in Ohio, and dutiful son that he is,
to remain with his aged parent during
part, at least, of the few days that are yet
spared to him on earth. The threat of the
despicable organ IT thinks, may now
safely be carried into effect, the object of
its malice being away and unable
to defend himself But we coun-
sci the organ" to make no mistake
The whole people of Montana know the
despicable motives of the Indpendeat and
the contemplate methods it adopts to
SANDER and besmirch those in authority
who have stood manfully and stoutly be-
tween the public treasury and its rapacity.
If the Judge is not here to confront the
hostility of those whose thefts and vii
lanies he has thwarted or punished, he
will not lack for friends who dare to stand
steadfast by his good name and abash his
falsifiers. The personal organ is advised
in all seriousness to 20 slow. 1t can
neither assassinate the character Of Judge
Wade or any other upright and reputable
man with impunity. Be sure of that, Mr..
Manager

SECRETARY WHITNEY has compare
lively easy time in showing that we have
spent a good deal of money since the war
closed on our navy and have very little to
show for IT, That is true of all navies and
armies. 1t is pretty much all the same way.
1t goes to pay salaries of officers and men,
timber will rot and iron will rust and fash
ion changes more rapidly in war equip
ments than in millinery. But Secretary
Whitney is putting himself in situation
to be buried alive under the effects of his
own criticism. We hope he will do some
thing better than any of his predecessors,
but it will be time enough to boast when
he has accomplished something that de-
serves praise and credit. With the advan-
tage of former errors at home and successes
of other nations, he ought to be able to
achieve greater success himself. We hope
the Republicans in Congress will not treat
him as suspiciously and niggardly in the
matter of appropriations as the Democratic
House of Representatives has treated Re-
publican Secretaries. We need a navy, a
large ami strong one, and we may as well
make up our minds at the outset that it is
going to cost very large sum of money.

THE ARIZONA INDIAN OUT.
BREAK.

The news continues to come OF the
bloody work done by the Apaches of New
Mexico and Arizona. Already the list OF
the killed has reached fearful aggregate,
almost as many as have fallen in the
Northwest war of the Dominion. One re-
port speaks of twenty -four being killed
within radius of twenty-four miles, and
Judging from the reports of other localities,
II would seem as if the total list of muir
ders so far could not be less than 100. To
have such an event happen without any
warning, complaint or provccation, right
under the eyes of civil and military au-
thorities, IS the most singular and disgrace
ful event OF many years. So far we have
only heard of single Indian being killed
and the capture of nine ponies and 2o,ooo
rounds of ammunition. Where did the
Indians get hold of this amount OF ammu-
nitionE Was il captured or stolen, or have
some white men been selling to the lndi-
| ans? We hear often OF the troops being in
hot pursuit, but always twelve or twenty
four hours too late. So insufficient or inei-
/ ficient have the troops shown themselves
in this emergency that Gov. Sheldon has
called out the militia of New Mexico. The
chances are that the Indians who have
made this carnival of blood will either es-
cape into Mexico or be sneaking back to
their reservation to draw rations in a short
time. Indians are not all alike and it will
! il would be cruelty of the worst kind ever
] to pardon one of these Indians known to be
engaged in this unprovoked outbreak. If
such crimes go unpunished il will prove a
premium to others to engage in the same
business. The sentimentalists of the East
may accuse us of bloodthirstiness, but in
the light of such wanton butcheries, we
cannot feel otherwise The poor men and
women on their lonely ranches, exposed TO
sudden and merciless slaughter, have every
particle of our sympathy. While we would
not relax but redouble our efforts TO edu-
cate the Indian children and aid the older
ones to acquire habits of self-support on
separate alotments of land, we demand for
those who are settling our wide, wild Ter
ritories ample protection against any pos
sible recurrence of such barbarous sacri-
/ fees. We have no such demands for our
army but that il should be held strictly
/ accountable for afiording security against
such outbreaks 1t is shame and a dis
grace to our Nation and its Government that
our citizens are left exposed to such slaugh-
ter. A Government that cannot protect its
citizens against such attacks is no Govern
ment worth having A Government that
shapes its policy by the views and wishes
of the people of the East, who waste all
their tears and sympathies over the imagi-
nary rights and wrongs of the Indian and
can regard with apathy the murder of their
own kin and kind, is not such Govern
ment as commands our respect. What has
/ happened to our brothers and sisters in New
| Mexico and Arizona is liable to happen
any day all over our wide frontier. Its
\ happening once ought to serve as lesson
| forever, that our protection shall be so am
pie that such thing can never happen
again.

ANOTHER strike on large scale has
by which 10000 iron workers are thrown
out of employment. The condition of the
iron industry is in such depressed state
that it looks like piece of the maddest
folly to demand an increase of wages.
Probably the strike will be more of q
benefit to the manufacturers than to con-
tinue work even at present rates. As to
the workingmen, the loss of their time is a
dead loss Of capital without any compen-
sation. The closing of northern furnaces
will improve the harvest for southern iron
districts and lead to transfer of business
that it will be difficult to recover.

companionship is communicating to we'll
brought-up children. The managers, in con-
sidering the subject, are confronted by the
assertions Of the champions of the Indians
that the average morals Of the latter are better
than among the orphans, whom they describe
as being, if not incorrigible, at least far from
well behaved. To an impartial observer the
only proper course seems to be separation
of the two classes for the good of both. 1t
is impossible to convince the friend of the
Indian that he is not better than white man
with half a chance, and it is hopeless to ex-
pect to reconcile them to the orphans.

A MARYLAND litigant of belligerent dis
position has challenged tie opposing lawyer to
fight duel on account of offensive remarks
made in court. The cautious legal gentle
man declines the challenge on the ground
that he will not violate the law. He isn't
much of lawyer if he will permit such an
obstacle to stand in his way. What is law
yer for in these days, if not to find ways of
evading the law or loopholes through which
to crawl? If there was fee involved, now,
perhaps the Maryland man might even dis
cover way to do violence to the statute.
