Butte an Examining Point.

Through the efforts of Senator Lee
Mantle and Congressman Charles S.
Hartman, Butte has been designated by
the authorities at Washington as pen
sion examining point. Heretofore the
local veterans Of the civil war have been
compelled to go to Helena for the pur
pose of being examined on their applica
tions for original or increase in pensions,
but hereafter this trip will be unneces-
sary, as Butte board Of medical examin-
ers has been created. This pleasing in
formation was conveyed in Washington
message received last evening from Sen
ator Mantle by B. n. Beebe, past com
mander of the local Grand Army Post.
The dispatch read as follows: "Examin-
ing surgeon appointed at Butte. Inform
veterans who have recently been ordered
to other points for examination to return

a BIG ENTERPRlsE.
The Hollanders Will Build a Large Canal
in Sweet Grass County.

IN sweet Grass County.
Situated on the Yellowstone water
slope, 10 miles north Of Big Timber, is a
fine irrigation enterprise covering thou
sands of acres of fine land, says the
Rocky Mountain Husbandman. This en-
terprise is the property Of the Holland r.
rigation Canal company, and is one Of the
leading canal projects Of our state.
The Holland Irrigation Canal company
was organized in 1895. The canal taps
the Big Timber creek about is miles
from Big Timber. The first mile runs
along side hill, on which mile three
fumes have been constructed; the next
mile runs on level country where the first
cultivable land is reached; the next mile
is along another side hill, at the begin
ning,of which drop of 40 feet is taken.
For the next nine miles the canal runs
over fairly good ground, along the line
OF which many fine farms are to be found.
1t is the intention when completed to
have the canal 16 feet wide on the bottom
with 4-foot banks. The canal at present
has about 8 foot banks. The company
has capital Of $150,OOO. The president
and promoter of the enterprise is A.
Mormser, who, with eastern parties have
undertaken this vast scheme. This land
under the canal is to be taken up by the
Hollanders exclusively, all of whom have
the privilege Of working on the canal.
The estimated length of the canal when
completed is about 25 miles, and will
cover country surprisingly rich, both
bench land and bottom land being found.
About $4,000 acres of land will lie under
this canal when completed. The settlers
are taking up only from 80 to 100 acres
each, and will devote themselves for the
most part to the dairy business, in which
line it is worthy to note that Hollanders
are very successful. About 100 people
are already located and in few weeks
more are expected from eastern points.
Alfalfa is the crop of this section and
with the many streams and springs to be
found, a better location for the cattle in
dustry is hard to find.
A church, school and cheese factory
are soon to be built on new townsite
known as Wormser City, right in the
heart Of the colony.
The railroad company, who own con-
siderable land under this scheme, are CO.
operating with commendable diligence
and bright future is in store for this
new enterprise. A store and postoffice
are already located, and a tri-weekly
stage is in operation from Big Timber.
A large acreage will be broken up this
year and another season will change the
entire looks of this location.

MARX EAsTERLY.
An Interesting Item Concerning an Old
Placer Miner of Deer Lodge.

An Interesting Item Concerning an Old
Placer Miner of Deer Lodge.
We have received copy Of the Pointer,
published at Mineral Point, Ohio, which
contains an interesting item concerning
Marx Easterly, one Of the old time placer
miners of Washington Gulch. Marx has
''stayed" with his proposition at Washing
ton for long time, like number Of
other "old boys" of that camp, and The
New NORTHWEST is always pleased to
record any good fortune that may come
to any Of them, knowing that it is richly
deserved. The Pointer says:
Frank Dieringer a few days ago re-
ceived a fine large Photographic picture
of his wite's cousin, Marx Easterly, sit
ting at the door of his Rocky Mountain
cabin, at Washington Gulch, Mont. His
faithful dog, apparently a very large and
powerful animal, is reposing on a massive
"cut" of wood sawn from the trunk of
huge Montana tree. The dogs head is
resting upon his masters knee-a pair of
faithful companions who would die for
each other, no doubt. The man and the
dog, together with the cabin and its ex
terror appurtenances, present a pictur-
esquely interesting view indeed. Mr..
Easterly is about 62 years old and a bach
elor. He has been in the far West since
early in the SOS, prospecting aud mining
the precious metal. His fortune has
varied with the exigencies of the times
alternating with thousands and nothing.
His last streak of luck, few weeks since,
netted him and his partner cool $31 900.
By the way, we just now notice the pro
file of his "pard" dimly revealed, at the
window, within the cabin. Mr.. and Mrs.
Dieringer value the picture highly. 1t
was accompanied by late copy of The
New NORTHWEST, a newspaper pub
lished at Deer Lodge, the county seat.
We are also pleased to notice in the
columns of the Pointer that at the recent
municipal election held in that town there
were but two parties in the field, Citizens
Free Silver Ticket" and the Republican
ticket, and that the free silver ticket won
the battle. The victory moved the
Pointer to declare that, "Free silver is
still on deck at Mineral Point" We hope
our Buckeye friends will keep it there.

THE ROYAL DISTRICT.
A Rich Strike Reported in the Blooming
tOn-aOn to ROYAL -

A Rich Strike Reported in the Blooming
ton-"On to Royal!''
THE New NORTHWEST has it from re-
liable authority that large body of ore
has been struck in the Bloomington, and
that the prospects for that mine never
looked SO bright as now. A short time
ago the mill was shut down for lack of
fuel, and it was reported that the eastern
managers had shut up shop and retired
from the camp. Since then, however,
John Manley, a good practical miner,
who is now superintendent of the mine,
has been doing some development work;
and as a result of his skill and knowledge
of mining, body of ore is now in sight
of sufficient dimension and richness to
place the Bloomington in the field as a
formidable rival to her near neighbor,
the famous little Royal. If the strike
proves as good as is reported, it is pre-
sumed the Bloomington people will now
push work on their property with re-
newed energy and operate on larger
scale than ever.
In addition to the Royal and Blooming
ton, there are quite number Of other
properties 10 the district that have been
worked during the winter aud it is stated
by wellinformed men Of that camp that
the coming season will witness more ac-
tivty than was ever known in the history
of the district.
The greatest drawback to the develop
ment of the mines Of that district is the
lack Of a good wagon road through to the
Royal aud Bloomington. OF course cap
ital is needed to take hold of the differ
ent propositions; but with a good road
into the district from the east side, it
would be an easy matter for people seek
ing investment in mining property to
visit the several mines and investigate
for themselves.
This paper has always maintained, and
still maintains, that the natural outlet of
that district, especially that portion lying
north and east of the Royal, is into the
Deer Lodge valley. The people of that
district believe they have great future
before them, and they would like to see
the road to Royal completed as soon as
possible. A prominent citizen of that
camp said to the writer the other day:
'sThe people of Deer Lodge will stand in
their own light if they fail to complete
the road as quickly as possible" Will
they do it? We believe they will.

able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure known to the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprie-
