MIssoULA, NJ. T., January 22.-[speciaI
to the Miner.]-In your special from Mis-.
soula published this morning. regarding q
suit brought by one Baldwin, of Idaho, vs.,
Hall. Jones & johnson, for an interest in
the Iron Mountain Company mines at Flat
Creek, this county, and recently bought and
incorporated by j. K. Pardee, are several
very glaring~ misstatements.
Upon personal examination OF the com.
plant on file in the Clerks office, l find chat
Baldwin brings suit against Jones only,
and for only a one-sixth interest on &C.
count OF a grub stake given, or alleged to
nave been given, to Jones in the Cpur
dAlenes last June, before coming to Mon
tana. Finding the Flat Creek bonanza
Jones formed a new partnership with
Hall q Frazier, and was under no oblipa-
ton to Baldwin when the Iron Mountain
and Iron lower mines were discovered on
the 25th of August, 1888, as Jones had
sold his interest in these mines to the Iron
Mountaln company and received his pay
and as the deeds had been delivered and
recorded before this suit was brought, the
action OF Baldwin. even if successful, will
IN no wise affect the title of the Iron Noun
ain company to the New Bonanza. The |

1T SHOULD BECOME A LAVE

House bill No. 2, introduced by Repre-.
sentative W. H. HUNT, of Lewis and
Clarke, entitled IAN act to prohibit Ger.
tain gambling games and fixing a pen-
atty for violation thereof" appears in full
In THE MINER this morning.
1t is a sweeping measure to rid the
Territory OF the sure-thing games and
the necessary hangers-on. It is probable
that all, or nearly all, of the games
enumerated in the act, are of a character
simply to victimise the unwary. without
giving any opportunity for the subject
to have a fair chance to get even with
the house. Such is the sure-thing game
under whatever technical guise it NAV
masquerade.
The bill describes the games quite
fully, affixes penalties for conducting
the same. prohibits the use of buildings.
under penalties, for the games, and d.
reefs the authorities how to proceed.
It will doubtless become a Law. for
there is a strong sentiment in the Terri.
tory In favor of suppressing the sure
thing crowd. The opposition to the
measure by the Helena morning paper.
Is battling for the chuck luck."
