We are pleased to announce on the au-
thority Of the New York Mining Journal
that the bill repeating the mineral clause
of the alien land act which has done so
much to depress the mining industry Of
Montana by discouraging the investment
of foreign capital in our mines, has
passed both houses and that it only lacks
the approval Of the President to be in
full force and effect. We are not certain
that this is the case, but sincerely trust
that 1t is. Delegate Toole's amendment
to the original alien land act, which was
voted down through the misrepresenta-
tions Of Plumb, of Kansas, and Payson, of
Illinois, would have greatly promoted
mineral development in this Territory,
as W. know Of several big deals that
were defeated by the adoption of the Or
iginal act without amendment. Mr..
TOole has worked hard during this whole
session for the repeal Of his obnoxious
and we hope that he may succeed
In securing the executive signature.

THE Democrats Of Indiana made a wise
choice on yesterday when they nominated
c. c. Matson, of Putnam. for Governor.
Mr.. Matson has long been Chairman Of
the House Committee ON Pensions, and i'm
that capacity has served the country well.
He has been paiRstaking and tireless in
the discharge of the duties imposed upon
him by that important and onerous Office
tiian which none requires more exaeting
and unremittiHg toll. The convention
also did well in selecting Senators Voor-
hees and Turpie and Messrs. Shanklin
and Bass as delegates at large to the st.
Louis convention. Any delegation head
ed by Dir. Voorhees, will have a voice that
will be heard and needed in the conven-
ton. His recent speech on the Presi-
dents message shows that he has not
lost his powers of oratory, for which he
has been noted for more than a quarter
OF a century.

EX-SENATOR MCDONALD has had his
career Of Reorganization In Indiana cut
short by the State convention. Asmight
have been expected, his address to his
friends" abusing Governor Gray had the
effect Of sending that gentleman to st.
Louis as a delegate at large. This will
shelve old Saddle Bags, who has been a
fomentor Of discord in the party Of that
important State for years. When Gov
ernor Hendricks might have been non.i-
mated at the Cincinnati convention that
selected General Hancock as the standard
bearer Of the party, the opposition
struggled the Presidential bee into his
bonnet which crawled around his bald
head and buzzed into his ear 50 that he
could not hear the voice OF reason which
was whispering that he was being
played for a sucker. His foolish ambi-
ton divided the delegation and defeated

THERE is some satisfaction In knowing
that the American Top Phelps whoapes the
English and is opposed to home rule for
Ireland, stands no show to be appointed
on the Supreme bench to succeed Chief
Justice Waite. 1t is a dignity which
be could not sustain. He lacks. too, the
legal accumen for a profound jurist.
There is not one reason why this honor
should be conferred upon him and every
reason why it should not. He has in
fact, been honored too much already. In
as much as there are no political issues
involved in the Office why should the
ermine not be bestowed on Judge Cooley
of Michigan? II the appointment Is to be
made On a partisan basis. who could be
chosen who would give greater credit
to the party than Judge Thurman of
Ohio, than whom no more profoundIawye
or jurist could be named for that exalted
position.

THE POSTAL

What an ofHciaI Has to Say Upon the I'm
portant Subject.
Mr.. n. P. Carroll. special postofice in
spector for Oregon, Washington, Idaho.
Montana and Alaska, is in the city with a
view Of taking a peep into the workings OF
the Butte Office. The gentleman has Just
come from Helena and has forwarded to
the department at Washington a volumin-
Gus report of the workings of that Office.
He is here to look into the needs OF Butte
in the matter OF increased postal facilities
and it is more than probable that when he
communicates with the authorities he will
speak in no uncertain tones a to the situa-
ton. THE MINER representative yesterday
had quite a talk with Mr.. Carroll and while
he is not disposed to be especially COM
he was willing to admit
that the present postal service in
Butte was a CRYING shame and that
there should be an immediate remedy in
the shape of an increased appropriation to
carry or the Office. He had not examined
closely into the affairs Of the office. but
from a cursory look he was satisfied that
with the money allowed it was being con-
Quoted in the best possible manner. Mr..
expresses himself freely in regard to
the system which obtains in the west of
citizens paying the rental for the post office
buildings, and was positive in the PROPOSE
ton that it should not under any circum.
be permitted. The department,
according to his idea, was for the benefit OF
all, and the people of the west should have
the same facilities as thepeople OF the east.
From his standpoint the trouble in this
section arises from the fact that in the
east the people do not comprehend or ap-
the wonderful and rapid growth
Of the West. The appropriations for the
service are based upon the figures for the
current year. and the appropriations are
not available until next July. In the
meantime with six or seven car loads of
going into Washington Terri
tory alone daily it is hard to say what the
postal service will need. The gentleman
has figured down the proposition to a fair
business point and his talk indicates that
he will in his report strongly urge a largely
increased appropriation for the coming
year and also the necessity for the adop-
ion at once OF the free delivery system.
Mr.. Carroll is fully alive to the necessities
the occasion and can, judged by his talk,
relied upon. SO far as lies In his powerto
see that the section in which he is located
shall have a fair q equal chance in the
boon OF equal and regular mail service.

MARcHIsG On.
A Few Men Who Are Not AFRAID of
Butte.

A Few Men Who Arr Not Afraid of
The hotel project is still being talked OF
with an intensity that gives evidence of the
desire of the business men OF the camp to
bring it to a focus. It is the same old
story-aii want a hotel, but the place can
not be agreed upon. The latest PROPOSE
ton is 10 build upon the property of W. A.
{ lark, ON the south ride of West Park
sire. t. opposite the Masonic Temple. The
psoIsriy has a frontage of seyenty-eight
fert on Park 8 rect and a portion of it
russ through 20 Galena- It is said that
Nj. Clark has made a NEST liberal offer
in thu event Of n company being formed.
but hat there is s snas lie The shape of
some rear lots which are owned by the De-
strosing An.e; people. If a satisfactory
bargain cID be made with them it Is prob
able that the much talked Of project will
be at once gotten into shape.
Mr.. Renshas. the owner OF Renshaw
Hall, has decided to keep up with the pro-
cession and is now considering the advisa-
biity OF making extensive improvements
10 his well known place of resort. He con
templates making an addition in the rear
which will include handsome dressing and
retiringrooms for ladies, the frescoiag and
other adornmeEts of the hall proper, ard
the erection of an iron ard glass front.
When lie begins the work. Mr.. Guedelhoier,
the present .kss.e, will make similar i'm
pruyements III the lower portion OF the
bui.diug and it will be then one of the best
rqnipprd places in the city Rensbaw has
been the scene OF -uany notable events and

splendid prog ess OF the new Butte.
Liennaman & Schmidt, of the California
Brewery, have a large place, but they think
that the business ~iustifies an still further
plant. Yesterday worktwas begun in the
Did familiar place, and in q few days the
space will be increased by at least one
third. To accomplish this the partition
which has heretofore divided the bar
rom the rear portion will be removed, thus
adding to the entire length of the room at
least seventeen feet. The roof will be
raised To the same height as the main
building, the bar placed against the south
wall. a band stand erected at the east end
ard such other changes made as will render
it the largest and best fitted resort in the
Territory. The proprietors are shreWd
business men and the fact OF the extensive
work they are undertaking proves their
faith in the present and future OF Butte.
