sANDoyAL REVOLUTION.
ON SEPTEMBER 18TH, 1891,

Cara crossed the Rio Grande and rails
ed the standard Of revolt. The revolu-
ton was organized in Mexico. The
Mexican government sent General l..
Garcia to the border against Cara, and
that general, ordering the reckless
shooting of supposed revolutionists,
sent many to Garza's standard. A bat
tie with Garza's forces, and he being
defeated placed dampef upon the
revolution, which slumbered for sew
eral months. In the meantime, he was
organizing and drilling his troops. In
his speeches, he possesses q certain
magnetism that strikes the Mexican
ranchemen in tender spot, and one
hearing him assail the Diaz govern
ment in Spanish would think that

MINING DIVIDENDS

The dividends declared by mining
companies during the year 1891 were
much greater than for many years
past, and represent abetter return on
the money actually invested than
ever before in the history of mining
in this country. Our table of divi-
dends shows but small part of the
earnings made, or even of the divi-
dends actually made, for many of
the most profitable mines are owned
by close corporations, or by individ-
uals who make no public returns
of the earnings 1t is greatly to be
regretted that all companies do not
publish frequent periodical returns of
the work done at the mines and of re-
ceipts andexpenditures. Nothing else
would conduce more to economy,
good management and large dividends
than a strict adherence to this busi-
ness-like requirement. Engineering

MONTANA'S EXHIBITS.

Secretary Ramsey, of the Board of
Worlds Fair managers, is sending to
mine owners, superintendent, and
the miners generally throughout
Montana the following circular
letters:
The Board of Worlds Fair Mama
gers for the State of Montana has
made arrangements for the reception
of minerals, petrifactions, fossils, and
other exhibits for display at the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, and
would like mine owners and others
interested to commence the collection
of such exhibits as they wish to have
displayed. BY notifying the secretary
of the fact that you have minerals for
exhibit, arrangements will at once
be made for their examination, accep-
tance, and shi ipment to the proper
repository. The places where exhi-
bits will be received in the State are
as follows, and the same will be in
charge of the manager for each coun-
ty: Beaverhead county, Dillon;
Cascade county, Great Falls; Custer
county, Miles City, 'Ahoteau county,
Fort Benton; Dawson county, Glen
dive; Deer Lodge county, Deer
Lodge; Fergus county, Maiden;
Gallatin county, Bozeman; Jefferson
county, Boulder, Basin, Elkhorn !;
Lewis and Clarke county, Helena,
Rimini, Marysville; Madison county,
Twin Bridges, Virginia City; Mea-
CHER county, White Sulphur Springs;
Missoula county, Missoula; Park
county, Livingston, Big Timber,
Cooke City, Red Lodge; Silver Bow
county, Butte; Yellowstone county,
Billings.
Exhibits presented at any of the
above place will be held on exhibit,
and at the proper time forwarded to
the Worlds Fair.

THE DIVIDEND PAYERS.

Ninety-six mining companies in
the United States made public their
pr,fts in the shape of dividends paid
during 1891. The total paid by
these ninety-six companies was s17,-
93O,615. Seventeen of these ninety
six operate in Montana, or not quite
one-sixth, yet the Montana mines
paid nearly one-fourth of the divi-
dends, or 81 ,249,5OO. And yet these
dividends do not by any means show
the profit of the mines named, nor
is the list of dividend payers COM
plete. Proof of the first statement
is given by the operations of the
Helena and Victor, located in Mis-
soula county. During 1891 this
mine paid off an indebtedness of
$4,000, put up concentrator and
added other equipments to total of
$4,000, making $S5,OOO, and in ad-
dition paid $4,000 in dividends.
The Bi-Metallic and Granite Noun
tain also spent large sums in better
ments, as did the Bald Butte and
Iron Mountain.
If 1891 was a good year for Mon
tana, 1892 promises even better.
There is an abundance of feed on
the ranges for stock, and everything
points to as good demand with
prices equally as high as last year
Several new camps, rich in mineral,
will have railroads to transport their
ores, which they did not in 1891.
These will add largely to the min
eral output and none of the pro-
perties operated last year show any
signs of falling off in production.
The sale of the sapphire grounds
near Helena to an English syndi-
cate, and the working of that ground
for the gold in it, as well as for the
gems, means an increase in the gold
output of the state. A great many
miles of irrigating canals were com.
pleted in 1891, and next season the
water from these will add thousands
of acres of productive land to the
state. Add to this the building O.
several lines of railroad, now assured
in different parts of the state, with
out railroad faculties, and it needs
no prophet to foretell that 1892 viii
be a better year for Montana ever
than 180l.-Independent.

A VISITORS VIEW.

J. E. Jackson, representing the
Consolidated Kansas City Smelling
and Refining Company, has returned
to Helena from an extensive tour
through the mining districts of the
State and is most favorably impress
ed with the present status and future
promises of Montana's mining indus
try.
He says that in variety and extent
of resources no country is a rival tc
Montana; that no known character
of ore fails to be Represented in
quantity. "To a stranger the only
wonder is," said he, ''that these vast
ore bodies have not been heretofore
developed but your people seem te
be alive to the situation and viii
doubtless improve the present oppor
tunity. / consider Montana th'
great mining country of the future.

AN OUTSIDE VIEW.

r. E. Labar, of Waukesha, Wis,
has been making a tour of Montana
and to his home paper, the Dispatch
thus unburdens himself:
"How about Montana? "Now
you've struck a tender spot. This
empire three times the size of Wis
consin, has scarcely been explored.
James J. Hill, or Jim Hill, as he is
popularity called, is the magician
who,' with his wand, the Great
Northern railway, is transforming
this rich and rugged state to the
subjection of man. Great Falls
the coming metropolis between the
'salted and the unsalted SEAS" is
almost wholly the precocious off
spring of this remarkable magnate,
and his brother in action, Paris Glib
son. The Great Northern road radi-
ates in all directions from this magic
city, and pours the wealth of the
state into the lap of the Falls. Its
total water power dwarfs Niagara,
with Minneapolis thrown in. It has
coal and all forms of mineral wealth
near at hand, and magnificent
agricultural and grazing country.
Warm winds from the coast, called
Chinooks, free the winters of their
vigorous severity, and give to the
country healthy and bracing eli
mate. There is almost continuous
sunshine. 1t is natures sanitarium
for weak lungs, spirits, bodies-and
purses. DO you know that Montana
has hardly been scratched, and yet
its output of the precious metals ex-
ceeds that of any other state in the
union? More than this; it is esti-
mated that the dividends from it's
mines exceed that of all other states
combined. It's mineral resources
are unbounded. The Belt noun
tains, near the Falls, have some Won
derful showings. Many of the mines
measure their ore bodies not by in
ches, as in other camps, but by the
yard. Think of vein Of silver ore
nine feet wide! Yet, that's what
they are working at Barker. The
Neihart district, just opened by a
spur of the Great Northern from the
Falls, has never been equaled for
the amount of development done.
Its leading mine, the Queen of the
Hills, is putting in plant to oper-
ate everything by electricity. This
subtitle fluid will light the tunnels.
run the drills, hoist the cars, and per-
haps smelt and refine the ores
With the perfection now attained in
current transmission, it isn't too
much to expect that within few
years the power at Great Falls will
be used in generating electricity tc
operate thousands of mines tributary
to the city. This is a country for a
young man to go whose only capital
is brains, energy, pluck and preser'
yerance."
