PROHIBITIONS

IN the publication of the table pur-
porting to be a comparative statement
showing excuses OF appropriations By
the legislature of 1881 CRepublIcan) over
those Of the legislature OF 1898 lthe last
Democratic leglslature), the Idea being
70 show Republican extravaganza, the
Register presumed on the ignorance OF
rs readers. The table. which Is ma
nipuIated for chat purpose. appears to
show what the Register says It does
but the Intelligencef has already shown
that a great deal Of the supposed excess
was duetomalting up Democratic defici-
enelsS which were inherited from the
last Democratic state administration. It
has shown what every posted person
knows to be true, that many thousands
Of dollars Of Democratic deficiencies had
70 be paid, and that instead Of Repub-
lean extravagance being q fact, there
Is now, ail told, more chan q million
dollars IN the treasury; that deducting
these inherited deficiencies, the state
administration has been conducted more
economically than Its predecessor.
One point IN the Registers table af-
feets the management Of the state penl-
tertiary, and the Register shows that
the excess Of appropriations by the Re-
publican legislature OF 1897, for that In
Stitutlon, over the Democratic ieglsla-
tive appropriation ot 1898, for dehcien-
cies. was S32,700. Below is published
rom the records Of the penitentlary
l0me figures showing Q contrast be-
zen seventeen months management OF
me prison, under the present ddminis-
ration, ending October /, 1888, and the
previous seventeen months manage
nent by the Democratic administration,
ending May /, 1887. It shows that the
lehcit Of the present administration OF
EARNINGS under expenditures was Just
half OF that under the Democratic sew
snteen months. and that the earnings
we're $4,000 greater.
AS to the excess OF appropriations foF
deficits, II may be well TO call attention
to a fact that the Register does not
state that the Democratic directors OF
the pepitentlarg went before the last
legislature and said they did not need
dedciency appropriation. as there was
an unexpended balance in the state
treasury OF $1,000 to the credit OF the
penltentlary, which would meet the de-
ficlancy for 1897 and 1898.
After the election IN November they
made but one or two drafts on this bal
ance, but on March 8, 1897. the day be-
fore the Inauguration OF the Republi-
can administration. they drew one dratl
81 5000, making $4,000 In all Of this
$4,000 they drew in the last seven
months, leaving but $1,000 for the Re
publican directors TO start with on May
j, 1887, and to run them for the seven
teen months which they have Just COM
pieted, with the splendid showing

Hard Times.

Great Falls, Nov. 25.-The mines of
Neihart are looking very promising
and so IL the future Of the camp. The
Big Seven mine In September and Oc-
tober paid dividends Of 80. 90 each. al
though the fact was not published at
the time, nor even made known by the
owners. It IN more than probable that
the November dividend from the same
mine will be equally as large. The
character OF the ore Is trending toward
gold a. depth In reached. 1t has al
ways been q silver-gold proposition.
but lately the percentage OF gold has
increased. while that of the silver has
to q recent survey the mine Is the deep
est in the camp. LOSS feet having been
reached The Barker brothers. who are
the principal owners Of the mine, have
developed II In the face of hard times
and the low price Of silver and are now
reaping the reward OF their pluck.
George n Thomas Dwyer. with 9TH
ers. are opening up an adjoining claim,
which II il believed will prove upon
Investigation and development. a rich
as the Big Seven. inc there are other
claims which need only the expendi-
ture Of capital to yield big returns.
Among the things in sight for the
spring in Neihart Is the erection Of a
concentration by the Queen Of the Hills
people. 1t Is known that w. @. Conrad
Of this city mas been experimenting for
q long time with improved forms of
concentrating machinery and II is re-
ported that the concentration will be
erected in the spring. There are many
mines of low grade silver ore in Mel
hart which would pay IL freight rates
were reduced by h previous concen-
tration of the ore and the erection OF
the concentration by the Queen compa-
ny Will encourage these mines at once.
other Concentrations are sure to follow
the success OF the first and that would
mean the continuance of prosperity in
Neihart. no matter what the price Of
silver might be. The Moulton has been
considering the matter of a concen.ra-
tor for some time n would no doubt
be the second in line. At the Gait the
management has announced its inten-
ton to sink 200 feet more. and should
the silver market warrant II. the COM
pany will expend a considerable
amount Of money in the development
of the mine.

Great Falls. Nov. 25.-John Conlin,
who shot Adam Gibson in Belt, has
finally secured counsel. and this morn
ing he was arraigned in the district
court with J. A. Largent to defend him.
He entered a plea of not guilty and
was renfanded to Jail without bail. The
trial OF the case promises to be long
and wearisome. as the state has some
22 witnesses. while the defense has sum-
moned Is.
