A BIG PROJECT.
Company Formed for the Development
of the EldOrado Tunnel.

A Company Formed for the Development
of the EIdorado Tunnel. E
Work was begun today on the Eldora-
do tunnel project being engineered by
VIM. H. Coe. This tunnel will start on
the southwest slope of Sallna hill and be
extended in northwesterly direction,
cutting at right angles some of the finest
ore veins in the county. The tunnel was
begun by Mr.::W. H. Nicholson several
years ago, but after procee ding 200 feet
the work was discontinued tor lack of
funds. The present undertaking. how
ever, will have good financial backing
and the hearty endorsement of the min
ing men of the community. A consoli
dated company, representing II claims
that will be intersected by this tunnel on
Salna hill, are connected with the un-
dertaking and give it stability. A com.
plete list of these parties will appear
later.
Among the ore veins that will be inter-
sected are the Melvina, Ingram, Rich
mond, Sitting Bull, Grand View, White
Crow, Oceola, American, lnterocean and
Monongahela.
The company was incorporated and
papers filed the latter part of last week,
with capitalization of 100000, 2oo,-
900 shares with par value of $40. The
officers of the company ale w. H. Mich
olson, president; J. L. Rice, vice presi-
dent; VIM. H. Coe, secretary; J. H.
Nicholson, treasurer.
Machinery will be put in and work
pushed as quickly as practicable.

Carl Harris aud bride arrived in
Dupuyer last Tuesday evening,
and were serenaded at the Hotel
Morton in a more noisy
than musical. Carl responded in
his usual manner, and was frs
escorted to Republican Headquar-
,ers, where several toasts were
offered, thence to the Eureka,
where Harris was once more given
a touch, of high life. Thence he
was allowed to return to the
b.issful aud divine c%arresses of his
lady love, and remain in peace for
the balance of the night. Welcome
to you, Mr.. and Mrs. Harris, and
may your married life be long and
happy.
1t is written that the lion and
the lamb will lie down together
but the lamb will be in the lions
belly. Julian T Burd, the heavy
weight democratic politician of
Teton county, with the lamb-like
individual from Wisconsin who, it
is announced, will start a demo-
cratic paper IN Choteau, passed
through town last evening for
Columbia Falls TO purchase the
printing material of the defunct
Columbian. With Burd as the
high chief on the new paper, Lowe

There is q scheme on foot here
to establish a Catho ic church. The

and We earnestly urge that the
citizens of Dupuyer subscribe lib
orally. Elsewhere 10 this issue

subscribed, together with the
names of the subscribers. While
cathollcy may not be in exac+ &C
cord with the religious views of
some Of us. nevertheless we should
overlook that. and consider the
benefit a church would be to
the town.

from to degrees above the normal and the
average amount Of sunshine was fully 50 per
cent. On the evening of the Sth timely show
ers, fairly well distributed, benefited the
crops and put the soil in better condition by
softening the clods and the encrusted sur
face.
The fine weather in the first decade of the
month has advanced vegetation rapidly toward
the normal stage of growth, and has been
highly favorable to rapid progress in field
work. very large area has been prepared
for corn. and reports from all districts in
dictate that good beginning has been made
in planting, and the work is now being rapid
ly pushed to completion. With a continuance
of the present favorable conditions the bulk
of the corn acreage will be planted about as
early as in the average of the past ten years,
Spring wheat, oats and barley are generally
doing fairly well, the chief drawback being a
tendency Of the soil to bake in fields where
the ground was too wet when seeded. Plum,
cherry and apple trees are in full bloom and
small fruit Is promising. Pasturage is fine.
Potatoes and garden truck are generally
planted.
