GETS IT.

The next national democratic conven-
ton will be held in Chicago. The choice
was made at the meeting of tho national
committee yesterday in Washington
after several ballots, in which Kansas
City, milwaukee,, st. Paul, Detroit, New
York, were leading candidates. The M-
vantages Of holding the convention in
the great metropolis OF the west are
apparent. Tt is the great central
point of the United States where all
roads meet and which is most speedily
and conveniently reached by delegates
from all states. No city in the coun-
try has more or better hotels or
a meeting place like the great
Auditorium. The national committee
wanted the matter Of ample accommo-
dations for tho great gathering settled
beyond doubt. 1t was unnecessary for
Chicago to furnish figures, for The
greatest political conventions in the
country have tested the esources. The
coming convention viii be greater than
all others. The democrats, full of hope
and with fire in their hearts, will meet
there in June to nominate the next
president Of the United States. They
will be better equipped for the fight
than ever before.
Fortunately the convention city was
chosen without discord; it was an har-
monious meeting and all left satisfied
that at Chicago, as in 1854, the victor
would be named. ~M..

STATE MINE INSPECTION.

Reports for the Yenr just Closed by h
Inspector and His Deputy.
The reports Of Joseph Hogan, state in
spector of mines, and Jacob Olsen, his dep
uty, for 1891, are out. They are devoted
almost exclusively to the accidents which
occurred to miners during the year, and to
the results of the inspection Of the various
mines in the state. In the introduction the
statement is made that every day adds q
few more to the list of new locations dls-
covered aud mining claims developed into
paying properties. Til following in refer
ence to the states GOAL measures, Will De

the workings are quite extensive. and when
running to their full capacity are capable
of supplying a large amount of coal each
day. At Cokeuale, Timberline and Horr is
found the bituminous coal. The vein IS
not so largo but has a fair capacity and the
output is steadily on the increase. IN Ono
teau, Fergus, Meagher and Mlssouln coun-
ties considerable coal land has been taken
up during the past summer, and Montana
at no distant day is destined to become a
great coal producer, rs we'll as the leading
mineral producer Of the world. Owing to
the amount Of machinery II power re-
quired in mining and the vast amount OF
fuel used in reducing the ores. there is more
coal consumed in this state, in proportion
to the population, than in any other state,
consequently affoyding a good market for
coal and coke.o
During the year thirty-two mon working
in the mines lost their lives. The most
disastrous accident occurred Nov. 3, at the
Anaconda, when nine men were killed by
falling from the cage when coming mp the
shaft. Twenty-Five men were more or less
seriously injured in mines during the year.
The review Of the work being done IN the
various mines throughout the state, and
the state Of the industry in each county is
interesting reading. The reports show that

The fire had burned up fairly bright,

dishes stood upon the shelves; the table

beer. Besides what have named there

corner cupboard with paddock.
AS soon as the last chain was up the

creature, and his age might have been

nightgown he wore, instead of coat and
waistcoat, over his ragged shirt. He
was long unshaved; but what most die.

in charge of that big house upon board
