The Serious Side.

IN the Inter Mountain an editorial
paragraph reads: Gambling Is IL
legal in Montana. though they do
say the superintendent of public in
struction tried to play a little game Of
draw in the Office of the state auditor
That is a jocose way Of dealing with
a mighty serious matter. In this state
the law permits the superintendent OF
public instruction to appoint n clerk.
and II fixes the clerks salary at $l25
a month. A. +. Carleton. state super
intendent. appointed a clerk whom he
himself declares was incompetent. un-
der the terms of a lea whereby he was
to pay the clerk $50 a month.
At first Carleton tried this rank dodge
by taking the clerks assignment TO
himself of the full pay for the month
Somebody in the state auditors ofi,e.
seeing through the game instantly. was
kind enough to warn Carleton that he
was walking into wide-open trouble and
exposing the proofs. So Carleton
changed his tactics. He gave the clerk
a certificate of appointment. With this
is on file at the auditors office a letter
from Carleton saying that this clerk
a young woman named H~arris-was en-
titled to the full pay. Later on there
was a refusal on the clerks part to
give Carleton the SIS. Still later came
the clerks dismissal, vet later the ex-
posture Of Cartoons little game.
When the story of This low-down
transaction was printed. Carleton. after
a day of elaboration, concluded that his
best way was to try to BLUM 1t out.
He had the brazen impudence to write
for publication the statement that he
had never appointed Miss Harris as his
clerk-and his certificate Of her appoint
ment. as also his letter saying she was
entitled to the clerks pay, on file then,
as now, right in the state auditors

This man Cartoons unfitness for ed
ucational work Is notorious. That, oil
itself. is bad enough. The few lines In
which he writes that the clerk was en-
titled to the salary, now on file with

Copper Shares.

local public in Butte pays
scant attention to the going
price of the stock of the large
concerns operating in Silver Bow u
~. Thousands of people in Boston deal
constantly in these shares-Butte pays
next to no heed to them. They are
the subject of constant speculation on
the Boston board. We suppose IL will
surprise hundreds Of intelligent business
that Boston and Montana shares, for
instance. have lately been selling in
Boston at $500 a share and ever higher
than that. The capital stock of the Bos-
ton and Montana Is i5o, 900 shares. AT
$500 a share the property is worth $780,
900. 600. Butte and Boston shares have
been selling in Boston at So a share.
That makes the property worth 100000.
The Standard II in recent receipt of in
teresting facts in regard TO the owner
ship of shares in some of the best
known copper properties in Michigan.
These facts are made available through
annual reports filed with Michigan oun
ty clerks, pursuant to a law of that
state. Michigan's nine principal mining
corporations have s.l2s shareholders of
record. the Calumet and Hecla having
nearly $500 of them. In addition to this
total must be figured the considerable
number of investors and spectators
who carry shares on margin. with vari-
Gus brokerage firms. also the sharehold-
ers interested in the new properties.
such as the Baltic. Isle Royale and
Others which Lave not yet filed their
frst annual report. but which will do so
this year.
There is a general impression that the
Michigan copper shares are largely held
abroad. but such is not the case. The
Calumet and Hecla has stockholders in
England. ireland. France, Germany,
Holland, Russia and India. but the total
numbe of shares owned by them Is bu,
a few hundreds. The other mining
companies have practically no stock

THE RIVER is FALLING.


asd the Dam IL safe.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena, June 23.-The latest from Can
yon Ferry is that the big dam is safe. the
danger point having been passed. People
who returned from there this afternoon
say that the river has fallen p~erceptibly
In the past "a hours, and that not to ex-
coed four feet of water is going over the
dam. The company has dropped at least
200 tons Of rock below the weakened por-
ton OF the lower apron since the opera
tons were commenced yesterday. The ca
BILE used to haul the rock out over the
river broke last night. necessitating put
ting In another. Some time was lost
stringfng out the second cable and II was
late this afternoon before IL was in posi-
ton and ready to stand the strain of
holding the loads of rock dispatched from
the shore.
A force of men is working two shifts
getting out rock and loading IT on the i'm
provfsed traveller. The company announces
It's intention of continuing to drop rock
below the dam until all possibility Of the
structure being further weakened by the
back flow Is passed.
In order to take as much strain as pos
sible from the weakened portion of the
dam a wing dam has been projected into
the water just above where the crest of
the structure has sagge This has had
the effect of diverting the now of water
away from the weak spot. One of the men
that returned from the dam tonight re-
ports that while looking at the men at
work this afternoon a large piece of tim
Der was seen to come to the surface and
go down stream. This Is supposed to have
been another piece Of apron that was un-
dermined by the back flow and torn from
its fastenings. The superintendent I'm
charge of the present operations says that
there never was a time when he seriously
believed the dam would go out. Since the
200 tons of rock have been dropped below
the apron he says the last vestige of dam
ger has passed.
1t is learned tonight that the Boston
& Montana smelter at Great Falls and
the Townsite company were prepared for
the worst. In case this dam went out the
intention was to blow up a part of the
dam at Great Falls to prevent the high
water from invading the two power
houses and damaging the valuable ma
chinery. UGH a drastic measure, 1t is un-
derstood. was decided upon by Superin-
tendent Klepetko and the Townsite CON-
| pany after estimating that II was the
cheapest way out of the possible dan
ger.
At 10 o'clock tonight it is impossible to
ing about the conditions at the dam. The
only means of communication with the
people at the dam II by means Of the East
Helena smelter's private telephone from
East Helena to the dam.
