Senator Stanford's plan need not excite
much discussion. Although congress is
wasteful 1t will not go so far as to make
the government a mortgage banker EN-
powered and directed to loan money to
every farmer who asks for it. The evils
OF the Stanford scheme would be greater
thar the benefits. 1t would make us a
nation of borrowers. 1t would initiate
the currency and promote wild, reckless
speculation in land. IT would interfere
with lawful banking and give the admin
lstration power that would be trivial
compared with those which Andrew
Jackson denounced when he abolished
the old United States bank. The sena-
tors scheme, however, should be treated
with respect. Stein carried into effect
something like it when ne bought out the
Prussian land M and thereby en-
ablsd the people to w their W farms.

institutions.

TROUBLE is brewing between England
and Germany over their African realty.
Germany intimates to England that she
may retain Egypt provided she allows
Germany to acquire a fair slice of Afri-
can territory. Lord Salisbury assumes
that he can retain Egypt anyhow and
hold the German land-seekers in check
as well. The old expedient of a confer.
ence will doubtless be adopted to deter
mine the share of each power. 1t is note
worthy that prior to the Crimean war,
Russia likewise suggested to England
that she might take Egypt as her share
of the 'sick mans effects"

SOME means should be devised to bring
u test case, involving the Silver Bow
sheriff contest, before the United States
supreme court. Once for all it should be
decided by the highest authority if boards
OF county canvassers can $ % manipulate
the returns as to d%isfrancLise American
citizens and perhaps determine the re-
suit of a presidential contest as in 1877,
when returning boards played such an
Infamous part. The United States su-
preme court decided lately that railroad
commissioners cannot arbitrarily reduce
rates and deprive railroad companies of
their just earnings. Is th~ m suf-
frage less saa. N'. .ates? Do

SUGAR from Claus Spreckles' Philadel-
phla refinery may be seen any day at the
Great Falls stores. This sugar is made
in the refinery which Spreckles started
in order to encounter the sugar trust in
its W field. The immense building and
plant were completed in less than a year.
Let us hope that Spreckles will meet
with like success in establishing the beet
sugar industry in California. If it sue
ceeds there it will also be extended to
Montana in due time.

n IN MINES.


How Len Lewis and Others Have Bec",n.
Rich by Investments in Castle.
AS Il sample Of the values Of mining
properties in the Castle district, says the
Butte Miner, we may mention n fact
stated by Len Lewis, president of the
Lewis live stock company of Fort Logan,
Mont in a recent letter to his father, G.
S. Lewis, of this cry. The cattle inter
ests not being us productive as it once
was, Mr.. Lewis, Jr, hogan some time ago
investing in stocks in Castle properties
and among the rest bought 10000 shares
of Cumberland a couple of years ago at
20 cents. Subsequently he bought H..
900 additional shares, making him $1,000
in all. He sold 1000 shares of this a few
days ago for $4,000, which clears him of
The purchase money and leaves him with
10000 shares worth 50 a share that cost
him nothing.
Other Castle properties are quoted at
the following prices: Great Eastern 6Oc.,
Grand Central zoe, Legal Tender &c.,
Yellowstone III, p. " X. 2Oc., Amador
10c. The camp is said to be entirely diff
ferent from Butte or any other camp in the
state, Leadville and Aspen, Col, and Cot
tonwood and Bingham, Utah, are the only
mining districts of note in the United
States Of the character of Castle, and it
is destined to be one of the most noted in
Montana as it becomes more fully devel-
oped.

The Hidden Treasure mine of Castle
has been stocked for SO, 500, 900. This
mine was bonded by A. M, Essler in the
early excitement of that camp for $780,
600 and as he failed to get an extension
of time from the owners, who could not
agree among themselves, he did not take
the property. Since then the ownership
of the mine has narrowed down to Louis
Heilman, Chas. Mayn and A. NJ. Henry of
White Sulphur, Louis Rotwlt of Helena
and T. E. Collins of Great Falls.
In regard to the Hidden Treasure, the
H~usbandman, received yesterday, SAYS:
"a block o f25,0OO shares of the treasury
stock is to be sold as soon as the certif-
Gates are ready, and already orders are
in for treble tnat amount, although the
company has not yet fixed the price at
which it is to be sold. The Hidded Treas
ure lead, as cross-cut, shows a vein of
carbOnates and iron forty feet in width
between we'll defined walls of porphyry
and dolamite,. the earbonates assaying

yer and from so to 60 per cent lead, and
30 o n of this ore worked in the Castle
smelter last year netted $45 per ton,
which is the best working test given BY
any mine in the camp. The mine is on
the line Of the Cumberland, Great East
ern, Yellowstone. Alice and Judge, and
about the center of the mineral produc.
ing belt. The property is being survey
ed for patent and development work has
also been begun, and we confidently
expect to see it take a position along side
the Cumberland and Yellowstone N a
few short weeks"
Mr.. Collins, who is largely interested
in the Castle district, has a high opinion
of this mine.

MODERN REAL ESTATE MEN.

AMONG the noted visitors at present in
the city are j. A. Willard, the Mankato,
MIMI, banker, and Albert Harrington Of
Minneapolis, who Is largely interested in
the elevator business in Minnesota and
other states. There are few more sue
c~essful business men in the northwest
than these. or men whose judgment in
financial or speculative matters carries
greater weight. Mr.. Willard is known
as a successful and conservative banker.
but his ample fortune has in great part
been made in real estate and this to IL
large extent is also true Of Mr.. IIarring-
ton They are what might he termed
modern real estate dealers, by which We
mean men who are quick to determine
the natural centers Of population and
business and who have the nerve to bank
on their judgment. THIS is shown in
their heavy investments in Minneapolis
and Duluth. The TRIBUNE has it from
the best of authority that Mr.. Willard
will realize this year a round million dol.
lars out of Duluth investments, and Mr..
Harrington is likewise heavily interested
in the city at the head Of the great nm
suited sea-
1t is gratifying to know that both
of these gentlemen entertain the
very highest opinion OF Great Falls.
More than d year ago they made liberal
Investments here and will add largely to
their holdings. In their judgment this
city holds first rank in the new north
west, and in a few years they will doubt
less be reaplng their harvest in the mil
lions as they now are in the town that
Proctor Knott made so much sport of.
Their good opinion of Great Falls is
worth much, especially as their judg-
lnent is fully backed up by their check
books.

THE MISSOURI RIVER Project.

The Missouri River Power company
gladdens the Helena heart by the prom
Use of motive power Of great extent. This
is to be obtained by building a dam
across the Missouri at Stubb's ranch
where the river is 200 feet wide, ten feet
deep and flows with a velocity of four
miles per hour. 1t is estimated that 49,
600 horse power may be delivered from
there in Helena by the use of turbine
wheels and electrical machinery. The
Power company also proposes to form a
lake II mile wide above the dam thereby
providing an unequalled pleasure resort
for the people of Helena. The company
also proposes to build a power station III
Helena with the moderate capacity of
500 horse power and finally to connect
Helena by railroad with the dam.
No definite estimate has been formed
MS to the cost OF the dam, yet the public
are asked to subscribe 100000 to build
the power station and to carry on the pre-.
liminary work connected with the dam
and railroad.
We admire the spirit Of enterprise
" hich devises such schemes. 1t is better
than the inactivity or Indifference which
i:as so long prevailed at Helena. But we
Il, not see what the capital city could
4tin by the large expenditure involved
in the building of the dam and railroad.
If these facilities were provided factories
would be built on the banks of the Mis-
souri, instead of at Helena because they
would thereby save the expense of o
veying power to Helena and would have
All ample supply of water Tor general use.
The proposed power station is more prac-
ticable. That might be used to create and
stimulate light industries and reduce the
cost Of motive power throughout the
city.
If they are really in quest of power,
we invite the promoters Of this enterprise
to turn their attention to Great Falls. In
stead of undertaking to build an indus
trial city at 5tuhbs' ranch, or in Helena,
they will find here already founded the
nucleus of the greatest manufacturing
city In the United States. Railroads,
fuel, water and water power are already
provided. The manufacturer will not be
burdened with the heavy expense which
the Helena scheme involves. He will
find here a city which nature and art
combined have better adapted for manu-
facturers than either Pittsburg or Lowell.

THERE has been no great western exhi-

chiefly the east and Europe. 1t was a
grand display and worthy of the occasion,
but the Chicago fair of 1898 should be
grander still. The entire west should
cooperate to make it so. The tier of
states and territories which includes
Wisconsin, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Mon
taua and Idaho and Washington has in
many respects common interests and com
mon aims. These commonwealth should
at once prepare for united representation

inexpedient to throw the entire burden
upon Chicago. From Montana and 9th

substantial aid that will strengthen Chi
cago in her resolution to make the ex-
hibition of 1898 worthy Of The Great
West.
