Duncan Mcdonald writes to The MINER
in regard to the late disturbance al
Ravalli:
"There are no half-breeds connected with
the discontinued ~renegades, only Larry
Finlsy, whois in Jail now, and the man who
told on Terre Paul and Lolasse. These In.
dams and sympathizers are Indians belong.
ing to this reserve" 3
Mr.. Mcdonald also adds:
What would the authorities do if two
murderers fortify themselves near Butte in
the mountains, and get a few sympathizers
to join them and defy the laws Of the
country? Would they offer a reward or
catch them with good Winchester rifes?"
Mr.. Mcdonald thinks there is alto
gether too much mud thrown at the half
breeds, and he warns offenders to desist.
As he has the reputation of being a most
intelligent and peace-loving half-breed
himself, the statements of Mr.. Mcdonald
are worthy of all credence.

A Man From Oregon and washington
Pays q Twenty Eear-Old Debt.
San Francisco special: A gentleman,
abont As years OF ago, walked into the
office oil Felix Dirkin, q diamond merchant.
yesterday, and announced that he had
come to pay a bill OF 500. The jeweler
looked the new arrival over, but failed to
recognise him.
When the would-be liquidator announced
his name as Bernard Winkler. OF Healds-
burg, Dirkin was still in the dark, and
failed to remember anything about any bin
being due. No entry was to be found on
the books, but finally 8 lot Of old promis-
sorry notes was overhauled. Among them
was one signed by B. Winkier, and bearing
the date 81 twenty years ago. Winkler
had bought the goods on time twenty years
ago. He vent to Napa, and afterwards to
Oregon, but did not succeed.
The man who so honorably paid up bis
debt explained that until quite recently he
had not been able to pay. He has been at
Walla Walla, and had bought land and
sold it to such advantage that he was able
to start in business at Healdsburg. He
offered twenty years interest, but it was
declined.

THE NAME

The bulletin of the Paris geographical
society, which has just been issued, con-
tains an account by M. Jules Maroon Of
certain further researches which he has
made into the origin of the name "Amer-
ica." As far back as 1876 he published a
paper on the same topic, which attracted
much attention at the time, and he has
since devoted much labor in the investi-
cation Of early historical documents in
which the New World is named. The
popular notion that America was so called
from the Christian name of Amerigo
Vespucci is, he says, wholly %unfounded
and he sums up his conclusions in this
way:
l. Amerique is the Indian name of
the mountains between Juigalpe and
Libertad, in the Province of Chontales,
which separates Lake Nicaragua from the
Mosquito coast. The word in the Maya
language signifies ''the windy country
or "the country where the wind blows
always"
2. The Christian name of Vespucci
was Alberico in Italian and Spanish, Al
bericus in Latin. This particular name
is subject to an enormous number of var
~iations, as the nomenclature and calen-
dars Of Italian and Spanish saints of the
period show; but nowhere is there any
such variation of Americas, Amerrigo,
Amerigo, Almsrigo, etc., and none of
these is either a diminutive of a variation
in use in Italy, Spain or France for Al
berico or Albert.
8. Before 1907, when Jean Basin of
Saint Die published the name, it il not
to be found in any printed document,
nor even in any manuscript Of recognized
and incontestable authority.
M. Maroon claims that his theory of a
native origin for the name America has
been accepted in Spain, Spanish America,
and, with come exceptions, in the United
States; in France, Germany and Italy it
has excited doubt and surprise, but in
the last named he has the support of the
eminent Turin geographer, M. Guido
Cora. There is no doubt that Columbus
and Vespucci went along the Mosquito
coast at the feet of the Sierra Amerique
and that the name was reported by the
officers and men of these expeditions,
and Schooner, the geographer, declared. in
1915, chat the name was already popular
in Europe.
According to the London "Times" it is
beyond question that n edition of Yes
pucci's letter on his third voyage has the
name Amerlgo in the place of the Chris
tian name. Nineteen editions had Al
bericus, and subsequent Italian editions
had Alberico. The one with Amerigo on
the title page was published in 1906, but
M. Maroon suggests that this was never
intended to be a variation of Alberico,
but rather an adaptation of Amerique, a
name already known and applied to the
New World, to Vespucci's name to distin-
guish him, as we now say, Chinese Cor
don" to distinguish the particular Cor
don by suggesting one of his greatest
feats.
The paper, which is very learned con-
corning the geography and geographical
publications of the sixteenth century, is
not yet concluded.

twenty-five feet they began to change the
course of the shaft, changing it from q yer,

sets of timbers in the incline and had driven
tagging ahead for the third, but failed to
put in a false set of timbers to support the
tagging and keep the ground above from
crushing it down, believing the ground not
heavy enough to force the tagging before
they could put in the permanent set. Just
as they were about to put in the perma.
nent timbers the ground commenced to
crush, forcing the tagging against the foot
wall OF the incline and this caused the dirt
from behind the set above to come down

SAUCE FOR THE N Err.


"The decision of Judge Barrett" says
the st. Paul "Globe- Democrat" "in New
York a few months ago, declaring the
sugar combine illegal, does not appear ia
have frightened the co%nspirators. If the
people cannot find protection in the
courts from the rapacity of the trust,
they must attack it through the Custom
House. Let the duty on refined sugar be
reduced"
"Amen to that" remarks the New York
Telegram" which thinks its Republican
friend in the Southwest is beginning to
get some daylight through its brain.
This is now, and always has been, the
Democratic position on the subject of
trusts, and what is sauce for this sugar
goose is sauce also for the iron and steel
and glass ganders that use the Custom
House to organize their rapine on the
public.
Perhaps the "Globe- Democrat" fancies
it strikes the Democratic party a center
shot because Mr.. Mills declined to go as
far ~ the Republican tricksters in cut
ting the sugar duties in his bill. The
Telegram" thought at the time, and
thinks still, that Mr.. Mills displayed
some white feather in that affair. Be
that as it may, how can the "Globe- Demo
crat" escape from its own confession that
the proper way to Kill these trusts is to
crush or reduce the tariff foundations on
they rest? Does it mean to say
that Baron Carnegie is whit less IA

One of washington's Coal Deposits.

Port Townsend Call" Mining Engineer
Picken states that the most valuable coal
deposits on the Sound are in township 35
north range 6 east, about fifty miles from
Whatcom. There are three veins-one ten
feet wide, n three feet, and the third
three feet eight inches in width. The third
vein is the most valuable. The coal lies
on the mountain 1000 feet above the river,
and a tunnel a half a mile long will cut the
veins. Under this coal lies a vast deposit
OF brown hematite iron ore. There are
four veins-the Tacoma, Last Chance,
Mabel and Big Chief-all within twenty
rods of the surface. A branch of the Can
field road will tap these mines. The Ben
