IT concerns Great Falls directly and
indirectly to know that the copper indus
try is thriving. Copper manufacturers
say that they are using more metal than
they ever did. In London copper sells
at 40 pounds per ton. Sales for future
delivery are made at 491a, from which it
may be inferred that no decline is feared.
The Calumet has sold its product for
some time ahead. The Tamarack and
associated mines have refused bids for
July delivery. All the Lake Superior
mines are receiving from IA to 141s cent
per pound for their copper, a price which
yields a liberal profit both to them and
the Montana producers. The copper in
dustry is becoming of the highest i'm
p%ortance. Last year the worlds produc-
ton was 1852, 900 tons. Of this quantity
Lake Superior produced 3s,769 tons,
Montana 46,51s, Arizona 14,419 and other
states COOS. 1t follows that Montana
leads in the copper industry as we'll as in
silver. Prospectors would do we'll to
look for copper deposits. 49,

NEW ENGLAND is up In arms against
the proposed duty on hides. The great
shoe manufacturers want no fooling in
regard to South American reciprocity
when they have so much at stake. Many
wcolen manufacturers are opposed toa
higher duty on wool and the people at
large are dissatisfied with abe small re-
duction which Congressman Mckinley
proposes to make. They ask why should
home Industries be disturbed and legis-
lative time wasted for the sake of a pal
try $4,5O0,ooO! Mr.. Mckinley cannot
even guarantee this relief for increased
imports may add to the revenue. Like
McGinty, Congressman Mckinley may
meet with a fall. His bill will please no
one. When it comes from the senate he
may not be able to recognize it.

GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. APRIL S. 1890
SEMI-WEEKLY
MEXICAN REDUCTION WORKS.

Word comes that reduction works
worth $1O,OO0,OOO have been destroyed
by fire in northern Mexico. No such re-
duction works exist in Mexico. In Mex
leo silver ores are reduced mostly by the
patio process which consists in reducing
the ore to powder by rollers. 1t is then
mixed with salt and other chemicals and
placed in the yards or patios to amalga-
mate with the quicksilver which IS added
at an advanced stage of the process.
American stamp mills are replacing this
method, but it still findsSfavor in Zacate-
cas- and Guanajuato, because the cost of
production is moderate and no fuel is
needed except the small quantity requir-
ed in separating the silver from the
quicksilver. Owing to the scarcity of
coal in Mexico, smelling IS not carried on
extensively. In the whole republic there
is no such plant as that of the Montana
Smelling company at Great Falls. The
cad conflict arises ina measure from this
lack of coal. Some American smelters
bought silver-laad mines in northern
Mexico. They have seltishly kept the
property in a few hands and under Sec
rotary WINDOWS ruling have been
able to import free as silver
ores, ores that contained probably so per
cent of lead. 1t is to stop such importa-
tions that miners in Salt Lake, Leadville
and Butte have called for higher duties
and laws that cannot be evaded.
The burned works were about Is miles
from Chihuahua. They were establish.
ed at mines where t'ere was reported to
be a great deal of low grade ore on the
dump that could be reduced at a profit
by American machinery. The New
York company which undertook this
work probably expended at most $780,
600 on the works.

TIL NEW TARIFF BILL.

The Mckinley tariff bill will only re-
duce the revenue $4,500,0OO. At least
that is the estimate of its author. This is
trifing relief for the people who were
led to believe last campaign that the sur
plus would be cut down forty or fifty
millions, Mr.. Mckinley cannot cite pro
lection as an excuse. He could have ben
Gifted home industries by removing the
duty on raw materials that are not pro-
duced at home. He could also have done
good service to manufacturers by remov-
ing duties on some foreign products
which increase the cost of living and do
not compete with home industries. 1t is
probable that the bill will be considerably
amended In committee and undergo other
changes in the senate, where Senator Al
lison is said to be dead against it.
So far as known the bill adds one cent
per pound to all the wool duties except
those on carpet woods, which are made
still higher. The duties ON copper and
copper products are doubtless
unchanged. A duty of one
and a half cents per pound is imposed on
all lead ore with the view of excluding
Mexican and other silver-lead ores as
we'll as to prevent the evasions which
Secretary Window tolerates.
A duty of Is per cent is proposed on
hides. 1t is said that this is done ut the
instance of Mr.. Blaine, who will use the
impost to secure some concessions from
South American states. New England
may not, however, approve this scheme,
since any impo.t that will increase the
cost of leather will be against her inter-
ests. The duty is not likely to benefit
stock owners in the least degree. 1t is
the meat, not the hide, which the Chicago
buyers take into account when purchas-
ing Montana steers.
1t is probable that the bill will en-
counter considerable opposition from
both protectionists and free traders. 1t
falls far short of the broad, comprehen-
sive measure the country had a right to
expect--a measure that might have
placed import duties on an equitable
basis and have served to take the tariff
out of politics where it impedes the con-
sideration of reforms that are much
needed.

A CHICAGO expert gives some rules for
the guidance of people who are invited
to invest in building associations of the
national" kind. He says: "Avoid aid
have nothing to do with those employing
agents to solicit subscriptions or collect
ilstallments; those lending On other than
homesteads; those paying salaries to
more than one officer or agent; those
lending money by any other method than
that pre- cribed by the statute-that is, by
auction among the members at regular
monthly meetings those organized under
the laws of any other state than that in
which the subscriber resides, and those
attempting to do business over a large
territory" These rules merit attention.
People will do well to establish local as
sociations and support them. In that
way they will gain more than Ivy invest
ing in the few honest national concerns.
In Great Falls all things favor the growth
of Il good local loan and building associ-
alton.

THE Montana senatorial contest begun
in the full senate yesterday. The senate
is now asked to accept Hoar's report and
admit the republican claimants. Senator
Vest and others will present ably the
claims OF Senators Clark and Maglnnis.
the flimsy argument put forward by
Hoar. The prospects are slight, how
ever, that Montana will be saved from the
her. But a day of reckoning will come
when all who are concerned in the sena-
torial steal will regret the part they took
therein.

HOARS FRAUD.

According to the telegraphic report,
Hoar's committee held that the validity
of the Sanders claim turned on the Sill
YER Bow election. The Oregonian, IN a
temperate article on the subject, says:
"There ought to be no limit to the power
of the senate to sift evidence relating to
claims to seats in its body. If the certifi-
Gates from the legislature are disputed, it
should have power to pass on the validity
of the legislative election. If the legal
ity of the Legislature is disputed, the sem
ate should have power to examine the
manner of election by the people. That
Is exactly what it has done in this Mon
tana case, thus establishing u new and
wholesome precedent for the future"
We hasten to assure Il contemporary
that the Hoar committee made no such
examination. They accepted Sanders
misstatement as final and made no in
quiry such as they should have done, if only
an acre of land or a IS bill were at stake.
A fair inquiry was made in Judge McHat-
toms court and resulted in establishing
the fact that the election at Precinct "a
was conducted honestly and that Sheriff
Sullivan was elected as we'll as the rep
resentatives who voted for Clark and
Maginnis. Senator Hoar commits the
worst kind of fraud. because under the
guise of fairness he mlsleads the senate.
The thew and wholesome precedent"
which Hoar is establishing is that sena-
torial contests are to be settled on party
grounds alone. The senate committee
and the senate itself is in effect a packed
jury which has its decision made up be-
fore the evidence is heard.

SOME farmers associations are de.
nouncing the United States supreme
court for the recent important decision
on the appeal of the Eastern Minnesota
railroad, which is part of the Great
Northern system. The farmers should
rejoice that the power to fix rates is not
left in the hands of railroad commissions
which might be bought up or Influenced
by strong companies. 1t is much better
for both the farmers and the railroads
that the determination of what are "rea-
sonable rates" should rest with courts.

Acker practised in his younger days among the

found himself in the grasp Of consumption, with
a wife and child depending upon him for support.
While in this condition, he discovered the cele-

has since saved the lives of thousands who were
on the sure road to death. Any man or woman
who feels a tickling in the throat, who coughs,
especially. in the morning, who raises or has a
tight feeling across the chest, who has sharp
shooting pains through the lungs or difficulty In
breathing, should realize that these are the first

What Miss Potter Has Done.


Miss Beatrice Potter is at present one
OF the most famous and talked of wom-
en- in England. She is superbly beau
tiful woman, is of aristocratic connec-
tions and owns large fortune in her
own right. For several years past she
has been devoted pupil and disciple of
Herbert Spencer. Having read and heard
all manner Of grewsome stories of the
horrors endured by women in sweaters
shops, she dressed herself in the odious
rags worn by that class, went down into
the City, found work, and for two months
lived and labored side by side with
those miserable white slaves of the
needle.
Few knew her secret, and so cleverly
were her plans carried out that neither
employers nor employees ever suspected
her identity. When she had thoroughly
informed herself on all minutiB relating
to the criminal tyranny exercised by the
sweaters, and on the hideous lives led
by their female victims, she threw off
her disguise, returned 10 the West End,
gave exhaustive newspaper interviews
and appealed for legislative interference.
So strong and unanswerable were her
arguments, seconded by her own expert
ences, that parliament discussed ways
and means for righting this great wrong.

New Phase of the Indian Messiah Craze.
The Ghost Dance Begins Again.
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 20.-A Tribune
special from Pierre, S. D., says ranch
man in to-day from up the Bad river,
reports the hitherto semi-civilized tribe
of Two-Kettle Sioux began wild ghost
dance night before last. Some of the
bucks when returning home, claimed to
have seen white figure on the top of a
bluff. One of them said it was Sitting
Bull. The alleged phantom motioned
them to follow and glided from hill to
hill in direction of the Bad Lands. The
ranchman says the Indians accepted
this as proof that Sitting Bull is the
Messiah, and that he was beckoning
them to follow. The ghost dance is the
consequence, and the ranchman says
the Indians as far down as Willow creek
are affected. If the story is correct it is
| a serious affair.
