the very first at all festive occasions and
the last to leave. An hour after the latest
arrivals had made their appearance Jim
had not come. Wonder give place to

down the, path and the visitors found no

night was dark. III response to their knock
they were invited to enter. and within they
found Dandy Jim seated in the corner in
the deepest detection. Hello, Jim, :"

4 Mtssissppt Miner,

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Represe ntatiye
Stockdale. of Mississippi, has introduced q
bill which, if it becomes law, or even
reaches consideration in the houac, will be
very interesting to the miners of the west.
1t is that all mineral lands or all such that
NAV hereafter so designated by the govern
ment, shall not bo sold, and shall be hold
by the United States and Leased upon I.
royalty of the output for such amount and
terms as may be prescribed by the secretary
of tho interior. The second section of this
curious bill provides that the proceeds
shall be applied to improving the water
ways of the country, including tho levees
of the Mississippi river.
or course it is very doubtful if any such
bill will ever got through, because it would
have II tendency to discourage prospecting
and the opening of the mines and mineral
lands in the west. So far the bill has re-
ceived little or no encouragement from the
committee on public lands and probably
would not get through tho house if it should
be favorably reported.

The salt market is practically controlled
by these western New York concerns whom

points were not included i'll the trust, their
business is affected just as much as if they
were in the present controversy.
