had it removed several times by means

DR.. Toel. The operation was performed
by means of electricity in a few minutes

The Arguments.

The Leader, which of course rushes to
the defense Of the commissioners, gives
the following reasons why the printing
awarded should be made to the highest
bidder and the county robbed Of from
5000 to $4,000:
l. The Leader is a republican paper
and as a majority Of the board is repub-
lican, therefore the county should pay
twice as much as is necessary for its
printing.
2. Other commissioners have done
the same thing. Two wrongs make one
right and the county must be mulcted
to support the organ Of the G. o. P.
These are the only arguments it has
employed to support the position of the
commissioners. What do the tax payers
think of them?

At a recent annual meeting of the
American Chemical society, held in
Washington, ID. c., the question of the
value of carbonate of amonia as a leaven-
ing agent in bread, OF as used in baking
powders anne up for discussion, in which
Prof. Barker, of the university of Penn
sylvania and president of the society, DR..
Richardson, late of the United States de-
partment of agriculture in Washington,
DIR. VIM. McMurtie, late professor of
chemistry in the university of Illinois,
DIR. f. II. BARLEY, late chemist of Brook
Ign, n. u, board of health and professor
Of chemistry of the Long Island college,
and others took part.
The consensus of opinion was over
whelming in favor of the employment of
ammonia. 1t was stated as a fact that
ammonia rendered the gluten of the
flour more soluble than the original
gluten, and that the bread in which this
action was produced by carbonate of
ammonia must be more ~digestible and
hence more healthful, and because of the
extreme volatility Of carbonate of am
monia and its complete expulsion from
the bread in the process of baking, it is
one of the most useful. most healthful
and most valuable leavening agents
known.
These conclusions are borne out by
the very elaborate and exhaustive
experiments made by Prof. j.
w. Mallet of the University of Virginia,
which shows conclusively that bread
made with a baking powder in which
one per cent. of carbonate of ammonia is
used, in connection with cream of tartar
and soda, is not only of uniformly better
color and texture, but a product more
wholesome, because the ammonia serves
to neutralize any organic or Tactic acids
present in the flour.

THE BEAUTIES OF A CANON.
How smith River Looks to an Observant
Correspondent.

How smith River Looks to an Observant
Correspondent.
Especial Correspondence OF the TRIBUNE.l
In the region about Great Falls per
haps there is no place that offers grander
scenery or is better supplied with game
and fish than the Smith river anon.
The Smith river rises in the Crazy
mountains, south of White Sulphur
Springs and flows north through the
Little Belt mountains into the Missouri
below Cascade. The upper and lower
portions have fine bottoms and are well
suited to agriculture and are settled by
prosperous ranchers. The middle por-
ton, which passes through the Little
Belts, is walled up on either side by a
complete canon, whose walls are pcrpen-
dicular and ranging in heighth from POO
to 800 and 600 feet. The canon is mar
row and serpentine and the cur
rent in the stream is rather swift.
flowing from one side of the canon to the
other, back and forth, forming a zig gag
like a rail fence in the east.
On the edges of the bank and moun-
tains above are rich forests of pines,
ranging in size from large pines suited
for logs to the nice straight poles SO
we'll suited to ranch fencing.
The valley of the canon is mostly
covered with brush, such as the wild
cherry, red and black haw and
sarviss berry and these are now
loaded down with their ripe wild
fruits which present a very beautiful ap-
pearancc and some OF which are very
rich and delightful to the taste. The
stream itself is mostly lined with will
lows and its banks are often steep,
which makes it very difficult to go up or
down the river. The stream where it
strikes the walls Of the canyon and is re-
flected off is often very deep, forming
pools where the large fish collect. 1t is
delightful to sit on the bank of the clear,
babbling stream in the quiet of the can
yon watching the speckled finny tribe as
they chase each other over the pebbles
in the clear water below. Another
beauty is that the place is elevated and
cool, with no pools about, and, in conse-
quence, no mosquitoes are about seek
ing whom they may devour.'
The valley, as has been said, is sided
up by perpendicular walls over which it
