HALF AND HALF.

Butte's public had nearly forgotten
the wrangle involving the Davis estate.
Other questions which are of i'm
portance TO the people have lately come
up, and the contest of hungry and i'm
Fortunate heirs might have passed
quite out of mind but for newspaper
reference to a document filed on Thurs
day with the county clerk of Silver
Bow. IL appears that II. j. Davis, pop
ularly known as the il~legitimate child
of the late Judge Davis, didn't get on
pleasantly with the millionaire banker,
and that, ms party Of the first part, he
made an agreement i'm September, 1883,
with somebody by the name of Allen
of Chattanooga, as party Of the second
part, by the terms of which the Chat.
tanOOga party of the second part, in
consideration of getting T. J. Davis re-
stored to the affections of his father,
should get one-half of the sum which
the reconciled banker might bestow on
his son. II is "a queer sort of agree
ment and empowers the said Chatta-
nooga party of the second part to win
the old man by ability, effort or skill,
by Establishment, by hook or crook, or
by any other honorable" method. This
bargain holds good with reference to
any sums which may go to the party of
the first part, either as heir at law, by
gift, compromise. last will and tesla
ment or otherwise. The document is
perhaps the oldest thing of the sort
ever filed i'm Silver Bow. II will revive
the comment that, after all, Judge
Davis was the poorest man that e
died In Montana.

the people of the West have reason to
regret that, i'm view of their promises,
as well az of their opportunities, the
republicans have not chosen to act in
a manner that would be just to silver
and that would forever estop criticism
i'm the columns of the partisan press.
Unhappily, the republican majority
in congress appears to be pledged to a
course which the West will be unani
nous in declaring wrong at every step.

Aluminium Coinage.
From the Norwich Bulletin.

From the Norwich Bulletin.
The Springfield Union suggests that the
government call in the 5-cent nickels and
substitute aluminium. Aluminium 10Y
costs about the same as nickel. 1t is
cleaner and lighter, as well as prettier,
and its use in this way wuld also serve as
n sort of introduction of the metal to the
people, who would thus become accus.
toned to il, and be given a chance to
learn its qualities and characteristics.
The suggestion Is q good one.
