FREE trade newspapers say that
Miss Anna Dickinson is doing
"more harm than good to the
cause" This, of course, depends
upon the point from which this
view is taken. Miss Dickinson is a
hard hitter, and the harm she is
doing is to the cause of free trade.

That Wonderful Region.

The Spokane country is famous fol
its resources and productions and now
the secret Of the farming boom is sgiver
in the following article from the Chron
icle, which can be swallowed, as ther,
are no strings attached:
While Mr.. G.P. Dart sas recently
engaged in digginga well on his farm
about four miles east OF this city b,
made discovery that will be Of inter
est TO the public. He began sinking
the well on rise OF ground about one
mile from the river aud he found the
ground somewhat dry. The ground
also con tanned considerable gravel and
an occasional boulder Of good size.
At q distance Of about seventeen feet
down he first found moisture TO y
small degree which kept increasing
and when thirty feet down the soil be-
came quite wet and il was supposed
that at every foot the water would be
found. None was found. however,
until down about sixty feet, where n
regular lake was found 10 all appesr.
ances to underIie this entire section,
and could no more be dipped dry than
could the spokane river, although b
eighteen inches Of water WAS ell that
could be procured. This proves the
theory that the moisture which grows
the crops comes from below the surface
Of the ground being so porous thai
the moisture percolstes to basin and
rises again through tue pores IN such
excess that the crops are not depend
ent upon rains to as sreat sn extent a.

A CAUSELESS SCARE.
No Occasion for Fears Regard
ing the Absorption ofMiner-
al Lands in Montana.
State Elections, When Held and
for What Purpose. The.
Rocky Fork Trouble.
Montana Mineral Lanss.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. l-Acting
Land Commissioner Stockslsger has
received. by reference VI the Secretary
Of tue Interior, telegram from the
board Of trade Of Butte City. Mont
asking the cooperation OF the depart
ment in preventing the pstenting OF
mineral lands in Montana to the Nor.
thern Pacific railway. Referring to
this Telegram, Mr.. Stockslager said
tha: there WAS not the least occasion
on the part OF the people of Montana
for the fears which appear to prevail
10 regard to this matter;that while the
company may have selected lands,
mineral In character. such selection il
In no way final, q patent being requir,
ed to place the lands beyond the juris-
diction OF the department; that in the
issue Of such patents lists Of the selec-
tions are always carefully examined
in connection with the mineral re-
cords and all lands even suspected OF
being mineral in character are exclud-
ed from patent
He also stated that rs that part OF
the road which is located in Montana
was not constructed until after the
period fixed by law for It's completion,
the issue of patents was suspended
pending action by Congress In the
matter OF forfeiture; and that this sus.
pension has not been removed, and no
patents for lands in Montana are
likely to be issued in the near future.
The acting commissioner suggests
that it would be advisable for parties
interested in the matter to furnish the
general land Office with any svidenc ce
or information which they may have
as to the mineral character OF any
lands selected by said company, par.
ticularly describing the same, in order
that such evidence may be considered d
when the compauy's selections are
taken up for patent.
