the resolution Of Sir Richard Cartright.
calling upon the government Immediately
to take steps to ascertain upon what con-
ditions the United States will be willing
to enter into unrestricted reciprocity with
Canada.
Sir Charles Tupper, minister of marine
and fisheries, defended the policy Of the
government az one Of dignity and self
respect, and declared that it would be
the duty of the government to vote the
resolution down. Was Canada going to
beg for treaty?
Charleton advocated the resolution and
declared the course of the government
would drive Canada to petition for politi-
cal separation from England with view
OF union with the United States, a. vida
done in 1849.

requested to continue in office until the

General Sherman has made an urgent
personal request of the president that
Gen. JAS. E. Johnston be retained in the
office of railroad commissioner and prom

man twenty-four years ago next April.
1t Is probable that Sherman's wish will he
gratified.
The story of an engagement between
the German man-ofwar Ogla and an
American man -of-war in the harbor of
Apia is generally discredited at the navy
department. No information upon the
subject has been received ut the depart

news OF an event of such importance
would surely reach the United States as
soon as any German sea coast.

COUNCIL,

COUNClL,
HELENA, March a.-The enormous
pressure of business upon the council as
rs the session draws to a close necassi
tates the holding of night sessions, which
will doubtless continue until the final I'd,
journment.
The bill amending the present school
law occupied the principal part of the
days session, 1t ELECTED much interest
and many brilliant orations-p prominent
among which was one from the Hon,
President DIR. Cole. After being fully
discussed it was amended in several I'M
portant respects and recommended its
passage.
The bill for the recording of mining
locations, the more distinct designation
and marking Of the exterior boundaries
OF mining claims. etc, after some debate
ana minor amendments, was referred to
the committee on mines and minerals.
The bill relating to the Limitation OF
civil actions received some careful con.
sideration and, after being slightly
amended, was passed.
The bill relating to the county treas
urers was severely criticised and, after
a desperate struggle by Its friends for
favorable action, was remanded to the
ignoblc demise of an Indefinite postpone
ment.
The House bill providing the governor
with private secretary, at salary OF
u, lM per annum, after some formidable
opposition from certain feeble and i'm,
potent source was passed by pronounced
majority and will undoubtedly in due
course of intelligent Legislative action be
advanced to the dignity of a statute.

ment in sporting circles. An extensive
programme will be given, besides the
six-round exhibition between Cardiff and

that some local pugilist will endeavor to

The Ophir must be a dandy mine.
In conversation with Joseph Hessler
a few days ago he informed us that
he had been employed as a miner
in the Ophir for a period of over one
year, and during that time no evil
denee of pinch-out of ore had ever
been found. and that as depth was
attained it increased in quantity
and richness until developing into a
first-class permanent bonanza. And
Mr.. Hessier expresses almost as
much delight at this result as if he
were one of the lucky owners.

During the past week a mill sest
has been made ON twenty-one tons
of 0phir ore, and the result ex-
ceedcd the expectations Of even
those who thought they were famil-
lar with the mine from grass roots
to the bottom, 240 feet. The ore
was assorted and was low-grade or
third-class as compared with tons
on the dump that have been taken
from the lower level In the mine.
The run was made at Jake Reeser's
10-stamp mill in this town, two
Frue vanners being used in connec-
ton with the ten stamps, and they
succeeded in saving about 1000
pounds Of concentrates that assay
away up in value. The cleanup
was made last Wednesday after
noon, and the bullion obtained was
$3.50, or over $40 per ton. The re-
suit is one that has caused Foreman
Oglesby to be well pleased. He
states that there are at present over
seven hundred tons of ore on the
dump, all of which is richer than
that used in the test just made, and
that there is plenty more in the
mine. The mill test caused consid-
cradle talk concerning the 0phir,
and nothing but good things are
predicted as being in store for the
fortunate owners.

owners, and together with their
friends are pleased at the outcome

a receipt returned Monday from

tons of ore produced sl,276.21 in

such tests. When the ore is run

that settles It. The residents of

tests will be made as above, and
that soon the Henry Clay will have
