Advice to the Democrats.

"If Democracy is to win, the masses
must nominate. This is indispensable.
The slightest attempt at boss dictation
must be resented and overthrow. Those
leaders or would-be leaders who have
individual wrongs or supposed wrongs to
redress, must redress them elsewhere
than at the democratic convention.
Leaders jealousies and quarrels must be
settled between the leaders and not
brought into the councils of the party to
distract them and endanger victory.
There must be no liberation of candi-
dates who are simply candidates to pre-
vent somebody else from being. There
must be no consideration for those who
simply seek personal vindication or aim
to shift responsibility. The candidates
must be men who believe in democracy
over, above and beyond all leaders, and
who want to win and who will work and
fight to win.' $40
The above is referred to.the democrat
ic party Of Gallatin county, and is as full
of coed advice as an egg is Of meat
Read it carefully and be guided by its
precepts.

As TO Mr.. TOOle's Candidacy.

There has been considerable specula-
ton, both In the newspapers and among
the people, as to whether or not the Hon.
Joseph K. Toole would be a candidate
for reelection as Delegate to Congress.
Recently It has been rumored and the
rumor has been rather industriously
circulated that he would not be candid
ate. The Miner can now say, upon the
best OF authority, that Mr.. Coole leaves
the matter entirely in the hands of his
constituents. If the people of Montana
feel that he has properly represented
them in Congress, and they will tender
him a denomination. he will be willing
to serve them. On the other hand, if
they feel that he has not fully represent
ed them, or that there is an eligible
Democrat who can poll stronger vote,
then he is willing and ready to step
aside. In other words, he would look
upon a denomination as an approval of
his official conduct and almost unworthy
if sought. He will engage in no conten-
ton for the office.-Miner.

A commission consisting of John V.
White of Tennessee, Bishop D. B. Whip
pie of Minnesota and Chas. +. Larabee
of the Indian Office, have been appoint
ed by the secretary Of the interior under
the provisions contained in the Indian
appropriation act, approved May 10, 1885,
to negotiate with certain tribes of Indi-
ans in the state of Minnesota, northern
Montana, Dakota, Washington and Ida
no territories, for the reduction of exist
ing reservations and for the settlement
of other land matters. By the act of
May 18th, an agreement entered into
by the commission with Indians cannot
take effect until ratified by congress, and
according to the instructions furnished
the commissioners, the free, full and fair
consent of the Indians must be made
prerequisite to all negotiations, and the
fair and just compensation must be given
for every right transferred to the govern
ment. 1t is not possible that the COM
mission will recommend the cutting
down of the large reservations.

Fatal HerOlsm.

Butte. July 3l,-[special to the INDIE
pendent. IA letter from Judge Arm
strong of the upper Sun river, gives the
particulars of the drowning Of Miss Jane
Macarthur, formerly of this city in
heroic effort to save the lives of others.
The letter is undated but it is presumed
the catastrophe took place last Wednes-
day. Miss Macarthur, year or two ago,
went into the cattle business in the sec
ton named, and at the time OF the ae-
cident was encamped on the banks OF
Sun river with her old mother and two
hired men. The men were gone fishing
down the river Judge Armstrong with
his wife and daughter of fifteen, son OF
twelve, and his spinster sister, attempted
to ford the river with four-horse team.
Coming down the bank the horses became
unmanageable and run into deep water,
upsetting the wagon and spilling the
family into the rapid current Armstrong
couldn't swim and held to the lines
while the other four were left struggling
in the river. Misc Macarthur, who was
an excellent swimmer, saw the accident
and ran to their assistance; throwing OF
her heavier clothing by the time OF
reaching the bank. She plunged into
the water, seized the boy and swain
ashore with him, then went back and
brought the girl ashore, and next Mrs.
Armstrong. Though very much exhaust
ed, she swan out again TO rescue the
sister. who was woman about nifty
pounds heavier than herself The
woman was already, in a drowning
struggle and seized her rescuer. resulting
at length in both sinking and losing
their lives. The bodies were recovered
a few hours after. Miss Macarthur was
typical Montana girl and had made a
small fortune by her own efforts. She
had herd of 100 cattle, twenty-five
horses, two four horse teams and $4,000
in money at the Sun river ranch; also a
valuable ranch near Butte. Her body
was sent to Bozeman to be buried beside
her sister.
The woman described in the above was
once employed in ] filings hotel. Her
sister Kate, died at the N. P. hotel in
this city last winter under peculiar
circumstances.

FOOD FRAUDS,
The shameful use OF Lime and Alum In
cheap baking powders.

Many food frauds, such as chieory cof-
fee or watered milk, although they are
swindIe in commercial sense, are often
tolerated because they do not partieu-
larly affect the health of the consumer;
but when an article like baking powder
that enters largely into the food ofevery
family and is relied upon for the health
full preparation of almost everv meal, is
so made as to carry highly injurious. II
not rankly poisonous, elements into the
bread to the imminent danger OF the en-
tire community, it is the duty OF the
press to denounce the practice in the
most emphatic terms.
Among recent important discoveries
by the food analysts is that by Prof.
Mott. the q. S. Government Chemist,
of large amounts of lime and alum in the
cheap baking powders. These are, one
the most dangerous, and the other the
the most useless adulterants yet found in
the low-grade, inferior baking powders.
It is a startling fact that ofov one hun
dred different brands of baking powderso
far analyzed, comprising all those sold in
this vicinity, not one of them, with the
single exception of the Royal Baking
Powder. was found free from both lime
and alum. The chiefservice ofllme Is TO
add weight. 1t is true that lime, when
subjected to heat, gives off a certain
amount carbonic acid gas, but quick-llme
IA left caustic SO powerful that it is
used by tanners to eat the hair from
hides of animals, and III dissecting rooms
to more quickly rot the flesh from the
bones Of dead subjects. A small quantity
of dry lime upon the tongue, OF III the
eve, produces painful effects; how much
more serious must effects be upon the
delicate membranes of the stomach,
intestines and kidneys more particularly
of infants and children, and especially
when the lime is taking into the system
day after day, and with almost every
meal. This is said by physician to be
the chief causes of indigestion, dyspepsia
and those painful diseases of the kidneys
now so prevalent. Instances ofthe most
serious affections of the latter organs from
drinking lime waters found in some
sections of the West are noted in every
medical journal. Adulteration with lime
is quite as much to be dreaded as with
alum, which has heretofore received the
| most emphatic condemnation from every
food analyst, physician and chemist, fol
the reason that, while alum is probably
partially dissolved and passed off in gas
by the heat of baking it is impossible to
destroy or change the nature of the lime
in any degree, so that the entire amount
in the baking powder passes, with all III
injurious properties, into the stomach
When we state that the chemists have
found twelve per cent, or one eighth o
the entire weight of some samples
baking powder analysed, to be lime, the
wickedness of the adulteration will b'
fully apparent.
Pure baking powders are one OF the
chiefaids to the cook in preparing perfec
and wholesome food while those are t.
be obtained of well-established reputa
ton; like the Royal, Of whose purity
there has never been and cannot be
question, it is proper to avoid alb others

The timber order soon to be promul-

step towards providing a just and equit-
able order regarding the cutting of tim

Washington territory would soon denude
the forests of their growth; but in Mon

allow only trees of a certain circumfer-

Timber Cutting,

Secretary Lamar has been considering
and will promulgate within the coming
week code ofrules to govern the cutting
of timber on government lands that it is
hoped will settle definitely all cry OF
fraud on the government and complaints
of oppression and persecution on the
part of the mill men. Sparks efforts to
give the timber laws a construction that
was never before discovered in them has
led to demand for relief on the Part of
citizens of the territory, and these pro-
posed regulations, the substance ofwhich
has already been printed, will soon con-
strue the law for both the settlers and
the commissioner of the general land
Office in way that will allow no mis-
understanding on either side. The re-
gulations will provide.
First-That any settler or private
citizen may go upon the mineral lands
without hindrance and cut as much tin
Der as he may want for his own use for
legitimate purposes.
Second-The commissioner Of the gem
eral land office may issue to firms of
whose integrity and business reliability
he has no doubt permit for length of
time not exceeding two years to enter
upon the mineral lands and cut and saw
firms shall always keep open to the in
spection of the special agent of the land
Offices books showing complete record of
the lumber sold and the parties purchas-
ing. In addition to this, when selling
lumber, shall require of the purchaser, a
statement in writing that the lumber
sold is for use in the territory, and is not
to be taken out of it.
