Water Power and Electricity Insure
the Future of Great
Falls.
GOOD REPORTS FROM the MINES.
The First Wool of the Season Ar
rived at Great Falls
Yesterday.
Good Opinions Of u City Expressed
by Investors and others.

Hon. John r. Toole returned Sunday
evening from a hasty trip rs far as Phil
brook IN the Judith basin. Yesterday he
took advantage of his s%oiourn in the city
to visit the Black Eagle falls and see
what is being done in the way of develop
ing the great water power at that place
and in constrasting the Boston 4 Mon
sana smelter. On his return a TRIBUNE
representative asked what were his i'm
pressions of the industrial enterprises he
had seen. r
~ can not find language to properly
express myself on the subject was the
response. "There are very few of your
own citizens, l believe, much less stran-
gers within your gates, who fully appre-
ciate the important of the enterprises
DING forward at the Black Eagle falls,
where | believe the greatest water power
on the continent will be developed. In
the first place a more natural site could
not possibly be secured. The dam is
built on a foundation of solid rock and
in the bed of the river, just at hand, the
stone for its walls Of masonry is secured,
as fine a quality of building stone as |
have ever e 1t looks to me as if the
dam is being built to last for centuries,
not years; and when finished it will be
an enterprise worthy Of this vigorous
young city and of Montana"
"What will be the result of the devel
opment of this power?" inquired the re
porter.
"The result will be something unex
pected by the most enthusiastic, in my
opinion. Mr.. Gibson has broad and far
seeing views of the situation bu'
it is doubtful if even he sees thu
ultimate result OF the harnesslng Of
that mighty river. You know that in the
past few years wonderful strides havebeer
made in the application Of electricity TO
smelling and refining purposes, and in thu
future this will be the principal agent EN-
ployed in our ,smelters and retineries. Ii
Spain they have now developed a process
by which ores are smelted by electricity
combustible material, Electricity doe!
the whole work, and l believe that a rev
olution is near at hand in this particular
Then see the vantage ground Great Fall
will occupy. But electricity will com
into other practical uses besides smeltin!
and refining and the consequence mus
be that Great Falls will in time occupy
foremost rank in the manufacturing ant
industrial world"
Mr.. Tocle returned to Anaconda yester
day a thorough believer in the comm!
greatness of the Cataract city.

A Suggestion.

The city fathers are doing much work
which is for the best interests of the city.
Signs across the sidewalk will come down
in a short time, the sewer is going in in
good shape, several streets are being
graded and some new sidewalks being
built. While all this is proper and in the
right direction the sidewalks of Central
venue are in bad shape on account OF
the failure of builders to conform to the
grade. There are paris of the walk built
at no less than eight different grades,
This makes a bad appearance and is dan
gerous to pedestrians especially after
nlghtfall. An order should be passed to
have all walks put in first-class condition
and all raised or lowered to the same
, urada

Injured by a Runaway.

Mr.. Klenze, of The firm of Klenze &
Walsh, mining brokers of Neihart.
met with a severe accident while out
driving yesterday. He secured a horse
and buggy from Netherlands livery sta
BILE, and, in company with his wife, start
ed north on Park avenue. When oppo-
site Payne's hotel the steam motor car
came luting along and frightened the
animal. The horse is perfectly gentle
under ordinary circumstances, and was
not badly scared on this occasion; but
Mr.. Klenze evidently thought so, aud, be-
ing an Indifferent driver, made matters
worse in his frantic endeavors to prevent
IL catastrophe. The horse gyrated around
until the buggy was turned over and the
occupants thrown into the street. The
lady was severely bruised and MI. Klenze
was severely shaken up. The horse ran
away and demolished the buggy. The
injured parties were removed to a house
near by and a physician summoned. The
lady tainted several times after the acct
dent, but it is thought they will both be
all right in a few days.-lndependent.

A Boston wool commission firm writes

We learn that the Montana woods this
season are in especially good condition.
This will insure for them a considerably
more favorable reception than they met
with last season, when in some instances
the staple was tender and the appearance
was unsightly. Worsted combers are ex-
pecting to use a considerable quantity Of
them, and we have already had inquiries
from several sources as to when we shall
get our first receipts. The general feel.
ing in all branches of business continues
to be healthy, and the impression is that
this condition of things is going to pre-,
vail throughout the balance Of the year
