Jack Dalton $ Escape.

On the 17th of last month some. iu- dians fired two shots at Jack Dalton, the Alaska pathfinder. and his escape from instant death Was miraculous, for while the first one failed to hit its vic tim, the second hit q pocket book which he carried in his inside pocket on the left side and the silver coins detlected the ball and no injury resulted. The shots were fired by mem bers of the Stick Indian tribe on the banks of the Chilkat river and the would be assas- sins were so bold as to show themselves and dare the members of his, Dalton $, party to "come on"
 It seems that the Indians in that part of Alaska are not in the best humor over the appearance of the white pros pector and took this manner of show ing their disapproval of the coming of the whites into the territory that they claim for their hunting grounds, and 1t is more than probable that they will cause trouble and sacrifice many lives before the matter is settled.
 We believe the time has come when assassinations of the whites by Indians should be regarded with extreme dis favor and for every white person killed a hundred Indians should be shot down. These reyengeful beings have killed hundreds. yes thousands of white set tiers and right now, in the beginning of their murderous work, they should be taught a lesson that will be remember ed for good long while. A warrant was secured at Juneau for the arrest of the supposed assailant named Jim, and an officer has gone to capture him but we apprehend but little good will come of such a course.
 We are truly glad that Gov. Brady has returned He has lived in Alaska for long time and understands the Indian character thoroughly and we hope he will. in some manner, put stop to any further efforts to prevent the forward march of civilization and the speedy development of Alaska.

THE ANNEXATION OF HAWAII.

The house of representatives very promptly passed the resolution for the annexation of Hawaii, but i'll the senate it is meeting with vigorous opposition. The fight for or against II Is not waged on party lines and some of its strongest supporters can be found i'll the demo- cratic ranks. White of California, d democrat. and Pettigrew, of Montana, a republican are its strongest Oppon= ents. They haze, however, we believe, failed to convince but very few that annexation should not take place. and to Us it seems that opposition at this time, shows d lack of patriotism.
 On the 25th ult the debate Was unu- sually lively. Morgan, of Alabama, one of the ablest men in the senate, couldn't hold himself down any longer, and he cut loose on the tilihusterers. He touch ed a vital spot, which was evidenced by the reply from some of the senators who have been delaying vote on the question.
 Senator Morgan said;
 Tt Is the duty of the senate to take action upon this great and solemn question. The American people are ill no mood to be tritled with about it.
 We are representing here men who are shedding their blood for us, and instead of consulting our convenience and pleasure We should be giving them our earnest support. If the members of the senate had to go out to defend the capital tonight and were obliged to stand guard We would have more patri- otism than some are manifesting here. By our delay in taking action we are placing enormous burdens upon the president. Such conduct k absolutely indefcnsible. By eudeayofine to con summate a political trick unworthy of the senate We are failing of patriotic duty. Whenyou return to your con stituents. to the fathers whose sons are now ill the Philippine islands, they will know of this trick. and they will spurn you.
 The majority in favor of the rcsolu- tion is large and by the time this paper is issued, We doubt not, Hawaii has been made part of the greatest gov ernment in the world.

THE NATIONAL SPIRIT.

We have just acquitted ourselves of our commemorative day. by which to ken we have shown by suited shows of bunting and the resounding crackers that we are country-loying people. As the long possession of years glide on, the loud hoZanna fades into a mild CT yehemcnce until as we contemplate this natal day we find ourselves seek ing up p-tO-date diversions far removed from the enthusiasm of the past.
 What, are We not then patriotic people? Yes and no! If We are to judge the loyalty of the citizens of a'state by marches and counter marches of men arrayed in tinsel. tine footing of horns. the boom of cannon and the tlorid ora tion, then we are fast. thank God, ceas- ing to be patriots. If as a business pur- suing race We have grown into the ord erly habits of peace, with its soft allur- ing pleasures to divert Us from the vio- fences of war, then we may be adjudg- ed a not aggressive race. To our credit let Us admit the last impeachment. War is the result of an ill-ordcred soci- ety of nations. If even justice in their several relations could be the balanc- ing rule of adjustment of their differ ences they would be settled in amity and peace. If greed was not the in spring motive of most men and most nations, fewer hatreds would be en- gendered and all men might follow the even tenor of their way undefiled by the blood of those unfortunates whom an immaterial necessity impel to the Uses of violence and the employment of the refined enginery of death. As it stands. well fitted army is more capa- ble of slaughter man for man, than ev- CT before. The wonder is so large per centage survive modern battle. In spite of the hazards referred to, we find when state launches into war that the best blood of our country are eager to accept the risks and offer their individ- ual sacrifice upon the altar of patriot ism. We find medly of occupations represented in our army ranks, many from the counting room, used to the luXuries of life associated with those physically seasoned men whose lives have been spent among hazards and priyations. As a species probably, talk ing them as d class, a man is the bray est thing on earth. The more intelli- gent he is the more effective is he as d fighter. As government we have shown forbearance and often have sub mitted to diplomatic deceits, enuendo and wounded sensibilities rather than plunge into conflict involving the shedding of blood. This spirit shows the character of our people. Justice loving, fair, considerate, calm and dis inclined to violent sentiments. These are the constituents of a grand race. Ruled by the higher spirit, uninfluenc- ed by fear, despising dishonest meth ods, generous towards the weak-the fruit of refinements, of the school house, of respect for order. for women and the home.

ed that we as a people were drawing away from national attachment and be- coming indifferent to national ties. This war is showing the error of such an opinion. It shows conspicuously that we have become weary of clap trap and the perpetuation of vain glorying jubilation which should have died out fifty years ago. We are d free people but nevertheless, subject to conditions which hold us in bond that ere long must be broken or we shall cease to be a free people. There are powers ruling the chief interests of the world today more powerful than great armies, which threaten the well being of millions upon millions of peo- pie. The true victory will come, if at all, from the great honest mass of the people when by united ballot they send honest men to the legislative halls of the country to enact laws com petent to control the aggressions and delinquencies of the very rich, corpo- rate or personal. Let Us therefore not despair that we are not prone to noisy shows and vain glorying self-worship, but that we are fast becoming a sturdy. steadfast people governed by a love of iustics, finding no pleasure in the com memoration of past victories won, but ever ready to stand or fall for what Is ripht

HOW THE WASHOE GROUP IS MADE UP

Helnze on the Estella formed the la

VS.. Heinze. For some time after the
purchase Of this group It was oper-
ated under the name OF the Poulin
Copper company. one Of the largest
shafts i'm the camp was sunk or the
Poulin to a depth of LAS feet. and the
shaft on the Estella continued to a
depth OF 500 feet. At the Poulin Is one

claim by the washoe company. except
to sink the shaft another 100 feet.
The Moonlight group is situated in
the eastern portion of the city OF
Butte, south of the Parrot and
conda companies properties. The sur
face is nearly all occupied by resi-
dences East Broadway street and
East Park street run clear through
the property. The group consists of
the East 4 Jay. Moonlight and
Gladstone claims. The Blue Jay was
located by James Mexican and Andrew
J.. Rundell on Aug. rs. 1875; the Moon
light by A. II. Hedley and Horace
welch on Feb. 5. 1879. and the Glad
stone by David n. Mcdonnell on Feb.

In the spring OF the year 1894 the
projectors OF the enterprise known as
the washoe Copper company. believ-
ing that there was sufficient valuable
mining property in the Butte district
belonging to individuals to warrant
their purchase and the formation Of
another large company. began their
operations by acquiring the washoe
group OF claims. This group consists
OF the washoe. Gold Mn and Limitl-
ton lode claims and lies within a pOr-
ton OF the business center Of the city
Of Butte. extending from Quartz street
north to tae properties Of the Parrot
company and the Original Mining COM
pany. and from Main street easterly
for about 1900 feet. The Washoe lode
claim. from which the company takes
it's name. was located on Feb. 26. 1877.

Only a small amount of development
work had been done on these claims
prior to their acquisition by the wash
oe company: some silver ore was ship
ped from a small shaft on the wasIoe
claim just north OF Copper street to
the Silver Bow mill about the year
1850; In 1883 John A. Leggat. who was
then an owner in the claim. sank a
shaft In Copper street at the head OF
Wyoming street to a depth of 225 feet.
and another shaft at the extreme east
ern end OF the claim TO a depth of 200
feet. and a considerable amount 81
copper ore vas shipped from these
shafts. South OF Copper street on the
Gold Hill n small shaft was sunk by
leasers 1870 feet deep. but no ore was
shipped. The Washoe company. after
purchasing the claims. Immediately be-
gan to develop them in a systematic
manner. A shaft was sunk on the
east end OF the Gold Hill 500 feet. .yith
levels at the 800. 400 and 500 for the
purpose OF opening up the Washoe
vein. and another shaft was sunk be-
tween Quartz M Copper streets just

ware store. 500 feet. to develop the
Gold Hill vein.
The Poulin group. consisting OF the

were acquired during the winter and
spring OF 1895. The Poulin lode was
located on March -. 1877. by Chas:iae

whose name is in large letters upon
the map and yet there Is no mention Of
this underground city OF any chart:
its existence is noted in no atlas. Along
the dark streets Of this city there daily
move 1900 men in the performance OF
their duty. Here they labor day after
day. creating the wealth that gives
Butte her proud rank in the sisterhood
OF cities.
OF the two Buttes-the surface city
and that underground-it Is not i'm
probable that the latter possesses more
and greater points Of interest thar the
visible town. There are no drone~
there. The dark city's people are AL
workers. There are no crimes COM
mitted there and vice does not enter.
There is no police patrol-none II neces-
sary. The laws that govern this un-
~derground city are recognized and
obeyed without the necessity of brass
buttons and nickel stars. When a man
enters this city he lives under new on
ditions as long as he remains. He is
a member Of a well organized COM
munity. working under its laws and
regulations. and for the time he loses
his connection with the municipality
upon the surface.
There are 10 paving contracts let in
this city that is out of sight. There
are no legislative elections there and
the b~ungstarters' union a no stand
ing in the remarkable community. The
boodler is unknown in the business OF
Underground Butte and the Salvation
army has no barracks there. All in all.
this second Butte Is a wonderful place.
Many tales might be told Of deeds Of
heroism performed within her limits:
Of devotion to duty that surpasses
many an act hat has been emblazoned
upon the scroll OF fame. The sturdy.
honest toilers OF this city work on with
out the inspiration that prompts deeds
of valor upon the field Of battle. They
do their duty because IL is their duty.
They nave made Underground Butte
even greater than the greatest mining
camp on earth.
