STATE IRA DIES COUNCIL.
Delegates will Meet in Helena May 1 to
Perfect an Organization.

Last fall a number of prominent labor
men from Butte and Anaconda visited
Great Falls and conferred with the
Trades and Labor council of this city as
to the desirability of bringing the union
labor of Montana into closer relation
ship and unity by means of a state or
ganizatlon modelled after the local Trades
and Labor councils. 1t was finally de-
termined to obtain the views of the sep
arate organizations of w%oTkingmen on
| the subject and President Fox and j. Il.
Reynolds of the Great Falls Trades cour-
Gil were appointed a committee to take
the matter in charge and correspond with
the different labor organizations and, il
the sentiments elected proved favorable
they were authorized to call a state con.
~rention for the purpose of effectipg a per
manent organization, The committee sent
out a circular letter on the subject anC
replies received have been almost unani,
nous in favor of the project. This being
the case. the committee acting under
their instructions yesterday issued d cal
for d state convention to meet at Helena
on May l.. Each organized body of labor
is entitled to two delegates for the first
fifty or less members within the organi
zation, one additional delegate for thu
next fifty or less members, and one dele
gate for every hundred members afteI
the first hundred. The state organiza
ton will be formed on practically ta'
same lines as the local Trades and Labo
councils, 1t will be wholly ~non-partlsal
as to purely political questions. but vii
reserve the right to discuss and take &C
ton on Legislative questions in which
w%orkingmen are particularly interested
The main object of the state organize
ton, however, is to draw the working
men of the state into a closer union ant
acguaintanceship with each other, an
gain the benefit Of the wisdom of the bes
men in the ranks of labor in thi
state on any question which may com
up in any portion of the state.

have cheap and abundant power and
already an important rail ay center.
From this point flour unsurpassed by
the famous brands Of Minneapolis will
be shipped to the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts. The question of making flour on
a large scale at Great Falls is not as
problematical today as it was thirty
years ago in Minneapolis. AS freights
have constantly adjusted themselves to
the industries of interior towns we may
be assured that the milling of wheat at
Great Falls will not be held in check by
reason of the great distance to the prin-
ciple markets.
Since the building of the Royal -four
ing mill the farmers of northern Mon
tana can rely upon a cash market at
Great Falls throughout the year. This
market will steadily increase in impor-
lance as the wheat crops increase in the
tributary country. Our virgin soil, rich
in the qualities that make No. l hard
wheat, will enable our millers Cor a long
time to come to produce flour that will
command the highest price in the mar
kets of the world. PARIS GIBSON.

Continues Flat, with Very Little Ensi-~
ness Doing.

Fiat, with Very Little Bush
ness Doing.
The last issue of the Engineering and
Mining Journal speaks thus of the cop
per market:
The market continues flat, with very
little business doing. Advices from
abroad confirm the statement that
American copper is pressed for sale at
rather low prices. Nevertheless specu-
lative sorts are somewhat better and g.
m. bis. at a slight advance over previous
weeks-viz., E3S It's. Cd. for spot and
$50 sos. for three months prompt. Sew
eral large orders for fine copper were
placed by the English and other govern
ments, but in spite of these parcels being
taken out of the market it remains rather
dull, with copper pressed for sale.
in our market here little business has
taken place. Consumers are only pur-
chasing in a small way, and their ideas
are mostly below the views of sellers.
Under the circumstances the quotations
are more or less nominal. Lake copper
for spot and near delivery is held at
9.GOM9.G5. but for forward deliveries
slight concessions are being made. For
electrOlytlc copper we nave TO reduce
the price to 94@93S, and for casting
copper to 9.O5Mo.15. Producers of Ari-
iona copper are not in the market.
"Abroad the demand for consumption
is said to be rather irregular, and lake
copper is freely offered at CAB without
finding buyers. For refined and manu-
featured we quote: English tough, E42M
E42 5s.; best selected, E42 los. "a CAB;
strong sheets, E49 los. n ESQ; India sheets
E47m E47 IS; yellow metal, 4 Lied.
Large business has been dong in best
selected copper at t42 los, and in tough
copper at t4l los, full English term
The special Boston correspondence Of
the same journal contains the following:
There has been but little doing in
mining shares the past week, and there
is no special feature to note. Prices
continue to droop under the influence of
lower quotations for copper, and specu-
lation for the present is rather on the
bear side of the market. Boston &
Montana. as usual, is the leader. and
after selling at S3G15 declined to 1884,
with sales of about 1000 shares.
