would compare with the ablest
made in congress. The practical
address by James w. Scott, who
has made the Chicago Herald so
great a success, was worth all the
trouble encountered in preparing
for this great convention.
The beautiful chapel at the
Waupaca Home, the money for
which was raised by the Woman's
Relief Corps, was dedicated last
Wednesday, the ceremonies being
impressive and witnessed by a
large crowd. The chief address
was made by Commander Upham
and others spoke briefly, including
DR.. A. O. Wright, of Madison.
The ladies deserve great praise for
the interest they have manifested
in the Home. This is new evil
dence of their kindness and
thoughtfulness which must ever be
keenly appreciated by the inmates
of the Home and by all of its
friends"

Senator Price Not Eligible.

The Milwaukee Journal claims
that Senator Hugh Price is ineli-
gible to the position recently
appointed by Gov. Peck, as
member of the state board of
managers for the Worlds Fair.
1t bases It's claim on Sec. L, Art.
" of the Constitution which
provides that no member of
the legislature shall, during the
term for which he is elected, be APP
pointed to any civil office which
has been created by the legislature
of which he is a member. Gov.
Peck took able council on this be-
fore he appointed Mr.. Price and
satisfied himself that the above
section does not apply to this case.
The fact is the position is not a
civil office" as construed by the
Supreme court. Senator Price re-
ceives no pay for his labors, takes
no oath nor is he required to give
bond for the faithful performance
of his duties.
This appointment by a demo-
cratic governor was a very grace
full act and an expression of the
value in which Mr.. Prices services
are held. 1t would be an extreme
ly difficult matter to find a gentle
man who could fill the position of
vice-president of the state board
better than Senator Price. The
place fits the man and the man the
place as if they had been measured
for one another and made to order.
Clear headed and enthusiastic in
whatever he undertakes, unpreten-
cious, genial, educated, and a man
about whom there is no shoddy.
Gov. Peck sought out the right
man for the right place when he
appointed Mr.. Price.-BAack Ri0ey

in recommending the remedy 10 others.
The praise that follows its Introduction
and use makes it immensely popular

If our friends, the Farmers
Alliance, are not careful they will
overdo the educational business.
At this season Of the year too
much talk is apt to give man
chat tired feeling" which bodies
no good for the tall<er. Better
give the jaws a rest and let the
printing press do all the educating
during this warm weather.
1t is easy to talk about the
extravagant appropriations of the
last Congress, but why is it that
our democratic friends do not
specify the particular appropri-
atoms which they consider
extravagant? We know that the
average democrat is opposed to
pensioning the Union veterans and
would gladly, if it could be done
secretly, refuse to appropriate
another cent for pensions, but
where is the democrat who is
willing to openly charge that the
money appropriated for the old
soldiers is an extravaganza?
Advices from Washington are
to the effect that Special Agent
Ainsly reported in favor Of the
selection of Tomah as the most
favorable location for the Indian
Industrial School. The citizens
had offered a farm of 200 acres,
valued at between $1,000 and
$1,000. Agent Ainsly reco-
mmends the acceptance Of the offer
and the department has decided to
follow his recommendation. The
sum Of SIS 900 is available for the
establishment of The school, and
arrangements will be begun at
once to prepare the buildings and
other preliminary things necessary
for the students.

BUTTE, MONTANA.
Butte as Seen by s'Tenderfoot. "
"a letter by Arthur Jones'

According to agreement, l will
write you about Butte City. 1t is
pleasantly located in the western
part of Montana, between noun
tains from 5000 to 10000 feet high,
on the north and south sides of
small hill and in the south valley
formed by said hill. In the dis
lance on almost every side can be
seen mountains, perpetually cover
ed with snow, which give a de-
lightful climate in summer and
shut off the cold winds in winter.
The nights are quite cool here;
while in Wisconsin you are rolling
about in bed and fighting mosqui-
toes, we, here in Butte, are COM
fortably sleeping with two wooden
blankets and a quilt over US.
Butte contains between $1,000
and 10000 inhabitants, all schem-
ing to make money without work
ing. This is the home of the
characters who are so brilliantly
Illustrated in the dime novel, but
anyone will be disappointed to
come here and see them; there are
plenty Of cowboys, miners, sharp
ers, ranchers and rangers, but not
of the novel type. Not one out Of
50 carries a revolver, and those
who do hardly know how to use it.
The chief occupation here is
mining. I will tell you how it is
done as far as I have seen: First
they strike "lead" by "gophering"
around in the surface. They use
a Windlass until the water Grounds
them out, then if the lead" is
paying one, an engine is set up,
and a pump is put in and they go
to sinking a "shaft." The stratum
bearing the lead is always on an
incline. The shaft is sunk 100 or
200 feet when they cross-cut and
drift-in to the main lead. The
cross-cut is timbered up and a
track laid, when one crew of men
drift in with the lead, and the rest
go to "stoping."
The ore bearing quartz is hoisted
to the surface, dumped into car
and run into the ore house, where
it is washed and sorted and sent to
the smeiter by four, six and eight
horse teams. The refuse is
dumped to one side and is not
made use Of except to fill up the
gulches made by placer mining.
There are about 100 mines with
shafts ranging from 200 to 1900
feet deep, and numerous other
smaller ones. There are about
5000 men employed in the mines
in this city. The following figures
will show the value Of gold, silver
and copper produced from the
mines of this city in the year 1890.
