GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8. 1889.
EEKLY
TRIAL RY SENATE.

Throughout this broad land the press,
regardless Of party, should resent 'le
petty revenge inflicted on Murat Halstead
by Payne, Ingalls, and other members OF
the senate. Mr. Halstead was rejected
for the German mission because he had
the manliness to assail certain senators
in the exercise of his duty as journalist.
These recreant senators should know thai
the Journalist who fearlessly defends the
nublic interests is best qualified for the
public service The people are his clients
and he is bound by honor and duty to
speak for them, no matter whom he Oh
fends. If he transgresses the limits OF
fair comment the courts are open to all
for redress. But the American people
will not tolerate that senators shall make
their privileges an agency for the intllc
tion of petty reyenges. The journals
must not be held answerable to the senate
for what he says in debate-that is in the
columns of his newspaper. Suc1

dared to prescribe him. In England
William Cobbett denounced the corrup-
tionists of his time and triumphed over
the petty persecution to which he was
subjected. In our own country when

PERSONALLY, L. A. Walker, the new
secretary for Montana, is acceptable but
he owes his appointment to the Harrison
McCutcheon combination and not to the
patty at large, which, in the distribution
OF pap, should have some ashow." The
constitutional provision should read now:
"Russell B. Harrison and |. D.. ..McCutch.
con shall select and the president shall
appoint by and with the advice of the
senate all Montana appointments; pro-
yjded that Delegate Carter and Mr.,
Hershfleid may make suggestions for

shall be allowed to endorse the candidates
who have been chosen for governor and
other high POSITIONS

THE NEW LANDLAW
Important Changes in the Law that Went
Into Eject March 4tb.

AihPoflahG CnanSes IN the Law that Went
Into Eject March 4th.
The omnibus land bill, that became a
law on the 4th Of March, gives any per-
son who has made one homestead entry
the right to make another one, or second
entry, if he has not perfected title to a
tract OF land under the first entry. A
great many persons who have heretofore
exhausted their homestead rights can
come in under this new law and make
second entries. This law also gives the
register and receiver the power to Grant
a leave OF absence, not exceeding one
year at any one time, to any settler who
is unable, by reason of total or partial
destruction or failure of crops, sickness.
Or other unavoidable casualty, to secure
support for himself, herself, or those de-
pendent upon him or her. This absence
shall forfeit no rights, and it cannot be
deducted from the actual residence re-
quired by law. Again, this act gives a
homesteader who has made final proof
upon less than 160 acres the right to enter
an additional tract of 40, so or 1870 acres.

ton that a final proof must be made on

law, and proofs hereafter can be made

TRYING TO REVERSE 4 RULING.

The Duty on Lead and Silver Ores-secre-
tary Windows Hearing.
WAsHINGroN, May ia large delega-
| ton OF miners and smelters from the West
appeared before Secretary Window, to-
day, for a hearing touching the ruling OF
| the treasury department relative to the
importation OF bad ore from Mexico. Ac-
cording to this ruling lead ores are i'm
ported free OF duty as precious metal if the
silver contained therein exceeds lead in
value.
This ruling, they contend, is injurious to
the smelling interests OF the Western terri.
tories, and they desire that it be revoked,
and that ore be classified by the Aeight of
various metals composing it, instead OF
value. Representing this view of the case
v ere present Senator Walcott anG ex-Gov-
ernor Grant and ID. SPEEDY OF Colorado;
Delegate Carter, Ex-Governor Hau er and
Carter Harrison of Montana; Van Horn of
Utah and Delashmutt OF Portland, Oregon.
In support of the correctness OF the rul-
ing a number OF New York and Kansas
City dealers appeared. They argued that
an analysis OF the language of 1888
imposing a duty of * cents a pound on
lead ores would show that the ruling OF the
department was correct. They called at
tention to the fact that in 1880, Secretary
Sherman had made q similar ruling, and
that assistant secretaries Fairchild and
Maynard also decided in like ann The
Senate committee on judiciary has been
called upon to pass it's opinion as to the
ruling, and unanimously decided it was
correct and proper. In view OF these facts
they maintained that the Secretar: OF the
Treasury shoul not now be called upon to
reverse the ruling but that Congress was
the proper tribunal to which the smelters
OF the west should nave recourse.
The hearing will be continued tomorrow.

out. The body was that of Walter Bates,

and w. H. Smell, city attorney, who re

there. Another building in the southern
part OF the city was also demoralized. Al
G ver Puget Sound the storm was very
severe. No other casualties on land d
among the shipping has been reported.

mining IOr FLOUR 0Olu.
From Mr.. J. s. Hunt, OF Bliss, Idaho,
who is engaged in mining in the flour gold;'
placers at Salmon falls, on Snake river, a
reporter derived some interesting informa-
ton in regard to those mines, which are
certainly ameng the most curious deposits
OF the precious metal. The gold, OF which
MIR. Hunt has a sample in a vial, is liter
ally as fine as -four, it taking, as he says,
100 colors to make a cent. Placers OF this
kind are found along the Snake river from
Blackfoot to neal Huntington, and in the
locality where his mine is situated, there
has never been found a nugget" as big as
a pins point. Notwithstanding the dust
like nature OF the gold, his mine yields
about $1,000 per month. The gravel in
which it is found is from IL to 80 feet in
depth. 1t is worked by ground ~sluicing,
the coarse gravel being separated and the
fine allowed to run over burlap cloths. The
fine sand and gold which collects on these
cloths is then passed over plates coated
with quicksilver, which takes up the fine

Below are the returns from the territory
so far as ascertained. The Ninth district
is Fergus county and the Sixteenth is Madi-
son county. No returns have yet been
received from either. The returns without
them show SO Democrats, 81 Republicans,
1 Independent and 1 Labor. The Demo-
Gratis have apparently 5 majority over the
Republicans. Should the other two coun-
ties, as is more than likely, prove a tie,
this majority will be unaffected. Should
they return 4 Republicans and 2 Demo
Gratis, the latter would still have 8 major
ity; while should they return 4 Democrats
and z Republicans, the Democrats would
have q majority OF z. The Labor man,
Breen, OF Jefferson, is a Democrat, the In.
dependent man, Ralston, of Lewis and
