HOW HIGH DO THE ROCKETS Col

n ne EdftOr o. THO Irtbnne.
Sir: Among the guests who sit on the piazza OF the
Oriental Hotel every evening watching the fireworks
there is frequently an animated discussion TO how
high the rockets 60. There IS great diversity Of
opinion The Broker thinks go feet IS about right
The Manufacturer concurs I'm that opinion. The
Electrician who began modestly with 12j feet, now
calculates that tho big rockets ascend 500 feet The
Controller IS positive that 500 feet IS the corcc es
mate. The Man Of Figures is prepared TO prove that
they rise from 500 $50 feet and the ladies' guess
all the way from 200 TO 1000 feet. Is there any
easy way Of calculating exactly how high rocket
aecends without the use Of scent &c apparatus! some
light on this point would interest number OF your
admiring readers Or, can you state how high they

No Ground for Discussion

There are two subjects our esteemed

Water Power and TOWNSHIP Company and
others, will not pay $4,000 delinquent
taxes due Choteau county; also, why tn
Cascade county commissioners have
failed to comply with the law, thus fore.
ing Choteau county to bring suit to recov-
er the 100000 due from Cascade for its
proportion of the debt--Rivef Press.
The Great Falls Water-Power and
Townsite company and others have not
paid their taxes because they were unjust.
ly assessed, and they have appealed to
the courts for redress; the Cascade coun.
ty commissioners will pay the indebted
ness to Choteau county in due time and
in strict accordance with the law. In the
light of these plain facts we can not see
the need or propriety of discussion,
There is no ground for 1t.

THE RESERVATION.

The house conferees have cOncurred il
the senate amendments or rather add
tons to the senate reservation bill, which
will doubtless come before the house fol
final concurrence in few days. Senator
Bowen who tackled on an amendment
which had no connection at all with the
bill consented to change, which it is
understood will remove all objections on
the part of the president to signing the
bill.
There is, therefore fair prospect that
the Indian agreement will be ratified in
time for the spring exodus from the east
ern and middle western states. Congress
should at once make provision for this
exodus by supplying enough money to
survey the land which the Indians have
agreed to surrender. All obstacles to the
speedy settlement Of the reservation will
then be removed and northern Montana
will assume the position to which she is
entitled in the political and industrial af-
AdlEs VI tul6 territory.
The indications are now very strong
that the Manitoba and Canadian Pacific
railroads will come to agreements which
will provide northern Montana with ad-
ditional railroad facilities. The roads
parallel each other for some hundred
miles and are in position to be OF mu-
tual service. A railroad, for instance,
from Great Falls to the Canadian Pacific
at Dunmore or Calgary would give the
Manitoba Pacific outlet over friendly
road. On the other hand 1t would give
the Canadian Pacific access to the heart
Of the continent, for the Manitoba system
traverses the most populous regions of
Montana, Dakota and Minnesota, and
connects with the great trunk lines that
radiate from st. Paul. Thus tea landed
at the Pacific coast might come in car
loads to Great Falls and be distributed
hence to the consumers. At present such
tea would come by way of the Northern
or Union Pacific railroads neither of
which are in position to render this re-
gion the best service.
1T is the opinion of railroad men that
the proposed connecting line will be built
to this city, for it will depend for business
on the Manitoba and Canadian lines.
Such dependence would cause the projec-
tors to select this city as the southern
terminus, this being the headquarters of
the Manitoba system for Montana.

Exchange editor Helena and Great
Falls papers are still full of smelter talk.
J. B. R.-Avaunt! This talk Of great
smelters makes me weary. By hardy
toll l had elaborated scheme by which
Butte would hold the prominence which
nature gave her, when from her btunte-
GUS store she placed exhanstless lodes be-
meath our feet, but all at once breaks in
the cry of "great smelter." Why do not
these catiffs talk Of golden treasure; why
do not those at the Cataract city exult in
the resistless power Of the torrent and
vaunt that they could turn this planet if it
were hitched to the Black Eagle falls?
All this l could stand, but to talk of
smelters, and worse still, to start one, is
enough to make my hair stand like uuills
upon the back of the fretful porcupine.
Methinks l will HE to my deepest cav
ern. There I will write Of the Anaconda
and tell them that they have no ore for
their great smelters. Audacity is the last
resource of genius. What care l if they
say that Anaconda is not Butte, and talk
Of ore in sight. The smelters must be
downed. The pen is mightier than the
furnace and will prevail,-EXit.

Now let foreign capital pour in. The
senate has repealed the alien land act, SO
far as mineral lands are concerned. The
house will no doubt promptly concur and
then the act, which reads as follows, will
receive the presidents signature and be-
come a law. That the act entitled San
act to restrict the ownership Of real es-
tate in the territories to American citi-
zens, etc., approved March Sd, 1887, shall
not relate to, or in any way or manner at
feet the title to mineral lands or mining
claims in the territories of the United
States, nor to mills or other reduction
works, or property used in the production
of metals from said mineral lands or
claims; but as to all such mineral lands,
mining claims, mills, reduction works
and other property, the laws of the
United States and of the territories shall
be, until changed by an act of congress,
or an act of the territorial legislature, the
same as though said act had not been
passed." ....

OUR REDUCTION WORKS.
Extracts From DR.. Hersey's Report in
the Montana Mining Review.

the Montana Mining Review,
In the Montana Mining Review for the
current week, DR.. A. H. Hersey gives
much interesting information regarding
the Great Falls smelter, whose construc-
ton he observed during his recent visit
here. He says;
"About midway between the Black
Eagle and Rainbow falls, on the south
bank Of the Missouri river, within three
miles of the city Of Great Falls, the Mon
tana Smelling Company has commenced
the erection of what is destined to be the
largest reduction plant on the continent.
llhe stockholders are Anton Eilers
Abraham s. Hewett, Edward Cooper and
Walter Quincy of New York, and H. W.
Child of Great Falls, the latter acting as
general manager. A ride from Great
Falls to the site of the new works, reveals
in the midst of alandscape Of marvellous
beauty and grandeur, a long row of brown
buildings overlooking the river, which
are nearly completed and will be used as
boarding houses, a towering water tank.
with a. capacity of $4,000 gallons, which
will be employed for the present supply
OF the works, a small structure utilized
for office purposes, and an army of labor.
ers, busy with teams breaking the new
earth for the foundation of the furnace,
ore and fuel buildings, storehouses, etc.,
etc.
"Within fifteen miles of Great Falls
are said to lie vast quantities of coal of
good coking quality, inexhaustible beds
of granite and limestone, hematite
and bog iron, and enormous beds of fire
clay.
"All the conditions for the profitable
operation of the new works seem to be
within reach, and there are many indica-
tions to foretell the success of the estab-
lishment.
7 "Great Falls itself is building up in a
substantial manner, and the promise it
gives for future growth is fattering. To
the visitor who looks upon the magnifi-
cent falls, and drives over the splendid
far-reaching areas of fertile bench lands
surrounding the town, there are multiple
ed evidences of united conditions, which
will combine to build up great com
monwealth."
