To the Editor OF the Daily Miner. Sri
have been misrepresented in your issue OF
Sunday, July %, 1889, in which I am
credited with saying my brother is the man
wanted for q murder committed two years
ago in California for which I am arrested
and held on q very slim suspicion and
which it is entirely impossible for either OF
us to be implicated in. Neither one OF us
have ever been in California for which we
can furnish ample proof. l came to Col.
orado in 1879, and can prove by substan.
tial men that I have never been out OF the
state since the winter of ~1SS2.1SS3, until
last September, when I came direct to this
city, via Denver. My brother came to
Colorado in 1885, and has never BEEN out
the state, and is there yet. Hoping you
will see fit to grant me room for to vindi.

Yours Respectfully,
A. T. VAN LEUvEN.

have never had cause to be ashamed oil, or

n Harriet Pinkham Called to He,

Sunday morning death visited one house

She was q native OF Lubbock, Maine. her
father being one OF the Oldest and most sue.
cessful sea captains OF the New England
cosst. Being q defendant OF the old Puri-
tan families who settled in that part OF the
country, she inherited all their love for
everything good and noble. end their alb
horrence for vice and wickedness in all
forms. Charitable and kind, she lived only
for Others, and to relieve distress and allie
yiase sorrow was her greatest pleasure and
Joy. Wherever she went her presence was
like rays OF sunshine. and the memory OF

w. e. Kane, Late Shift Boss of the
Gagnon, Watched BY His Fellow
Employees.
Between IL and 1 O'Clock Sunday alter,
room occurred one Of those agreeable
events which it is always q pleasure to
chronicle, going to show, as they do, that
the spirit OF fraternity is still as strong as
ever, Notwithstanding all assertions OF
p~essimistic croakers to the contrary, and
that true worth OF character and proper
regard for the welfare and happiness of
Others IL still appreciated to the fullest.
w. Il. Kane, who for q number of years
has been shift boss OF the Gagnon. and
who has resigned that position to accent
tne foremanship OF the Little Miner, at
Wickes, was the recipient OF q handsome
and substantial token OF esteem and re-
gard from his late fellow employees, in the
fern oil a beautiful and costly gold watch
and chain. The presentation was made
By n OF the donors in behalf OF his
comrades, and was a complete surprise to
MIR. Kane. Mr.. York, foreman OF the
mine, also presented him with a degree
and chronometer square,, a valuable and
useful instrument to one having the imme-
date charge OF q working mine.
MIR. Kane Is well known to all miners in
this locality as an able and conscientious
gentleman, and the high esteem in which he
10 he'd by those with whom he has been
engaged for years 10 best denoted by the
mate but expressive testimonials which
ne carries with him to bis new field of
labor.

BUTTE, OF COURSE.
One Sentiment, and That That Butte
Should be the Capital.

One Sentiment, and That That Butte
Should be the Capital.
As is to be supposed the principal topic
OF conversation, both in public and private
places, is the question Of temporary CAPT
tai removal. Especially universal has
the discussion been since the action OF the
constitutional convention Saturday, while
sitting as q committee OF the whole, in de.
Gliding upon Anaconda as the most eligible
locality. Hardly a person can be found
who does not favor Butte, not simply
through motives Of patriotism and love OF
home, but because it is unhesitatingly ad.
mitted that Butte's claims for the honor
are just and based upon the most un~assaiI-
able grounds. The n sentiment is that
Butte, as the largest, most populous, as
well as the wealthiest city in the new state,
il entitled to the choice by right Of the
it enjoys in those respects.
Furthermore, it is located in the most pop
ulous portion Of the territory, it's friends
say, in fact in the very centre OF the popu-
lation and enjoys the best railroad facili-
ties OF any of the claimants for the coveted
honor. and that alone should. they say,
be argument sufficient.
Upon one thing all are agreed, and that
that the Silver Bow delegation should
stand uHited to q man for Butte first, last
aud all the time, and throw all the
strength they possess in that direction and
not cease their fight until the battle is
ended and the question finally decided.
