cess-A Gen eral Holiday.

cess-A Gen eral Holiday.
To-morrow's holiday is one in
which we can all participate in glad
some glee, ignoring all politics and
partisan thoughts. 1t is a healthy
and wholesome anniversary dedi-
Gated to honest and manly sport and
to the recuperation OF wasted ener-
gies. The Government makes it
legal and national holiday and the
business men and merchants make
it a general one for their tired en-
ployees and at the same time gladly
and generously foot the bill OF ex-
penses. The boat club houses throw
open their massy doors to welcome
the friendly ambassadors OF mirth
and jolity, aud our spacious sea room
affords every accommodation for the
sports OF the sons OF the sires WHO
domin ate old Neptune's domains.
The Regatta promises to be one
of the best and most entertaining of
the series and the events will in.

YEARS OF CONTROVERSY
The Old Smokehouse Claim to
Be Worked Again.
A COMPANY is FORMED
Nhs claim Covers Fifty Acres in the
Heart of Butte-Active Opera
tons to Be Resumed
at Once.

After years Of controversy and litiga-
ton, injunctions and all that goes with
such law processes, the famous Smoke
house claim right in the heart of Butte
is associated with other claims and a
company formed to be known as the
Smokehouse Copper Mining company.
Deeds have been obtained conveying

IT IS A LIVE QUESTION
The People Demand the Opening
of the Parks.
A DOZEN PETITIONS OUT
The Whole Community Is Interested
and Anxious to Sign-It's De-
mand the Council Can
not Ignore.

Great Falls, July 25.-The opening of
the parks has become question which
is discussed, with the discussion all
upon one side, in every place in the
city. Wherever one goes the conversa-
ton is the need of public entrance to
the parks. Starting with single pc
tition at the Standard office, there ale
to-day a dozen petitions scattered all
through the city and the number Of
signers. estimated on conservative
basis, is over 500.
To-day a new phase has been level-
oped. Yesterday many visited the
Standard office for the purpose of af-
fixing their signatures to the petition.
To-day the visitors are asking for The
privilege of taking out papers for their
neighborS and friends to sign. If there
is any question of sentiment left it is
merely whether 80 or 95 per cent. of the
community, or even a greater percent
age, is in favor of opening the parks.
1t is matter of necessity on the part
of this office to acknowledge that the
matter has gone beyond the first in
tention, and has grown too great to be
confined to this one paper The petit
ton papers, as fast as they could be
typewriter, have been supplied to
those desiring them through the town,
and there are probably at least a doZ-
en- active solicitors for names visiting
the various places in the city and as
many more are left at stores and the
like for those to sign who may drop in.
So far as the Standard is concerned,
the original policy of obtaining names
by a bare presentation of facts has
been rigidly adhered to, and that the
public is in favor of such opening OF
the parks is shown by the fact that
the Standard petition to-day contains
more names than all of the others Gem
bined. 1t is now formidable docu-
ment, over six feet in length. Many OF
the signatures are soiled and grimy,
but that is because the hands which
signed them were fresh from 10 hours
of honest toll, and it is not possible
that the council, elected as it is by
popular vote, will consider such sig
natures of less weight than those made
at the orderly desk of the business man.
There can be no doubt that the de-
mand comes from the masses, and it is
equally certain that the business men
are also anxious to enjoy the advan-
tages of the parks for which they have
paid out their good money during a
long period of years.
Possibly they are more interested in
the matter than any one else There
is no one-man movement about this
matter, for the whole community is
interested. Perhaps there was more
talk over the purchase of the water
works, but there has certainly never
been as much action before.

ENCOURAGING Reports.

Great Falls, July 25.-News from the
mining district of Swift Current, in the
ceded strip, is very encouraging.
George Barron, who came down from
there last week and is visiting at Du-
puyer, reports that bonds amounting in
the aggregate to nearly 100000 are
being negotiated or are already sign
ed. He and his partners have bonded
seven claims to a syndicate of Boston
and Montreal capitalists for 100000,
and the company is now considering a
further bond of $4,000 on other claims
in the vicinity. The syndicate is rep
resented by o. N. Holmes of Helena.
and the bonds are to run until June
1, 1901. Mr. Holmes, State Mine In
spectoT Burns and A. M. Esler, all of
Helena, have been through the strip
recently and they declare themselves
well pleased with the sbowings and
believe that with proper development
the strip will grow into one of the
richest copper producers in the coun-
try, second only to Butte. Mr.. Holmes
expects to begin systematic develop
ment work in about a month. Easy
railway grades have been found from
the camp in the direction of both the
Great Northern and the Canadian Pa
cific.

Democrats Won.

Great Falls, July 25.-The election of

sweeping victory for the democrats,

ties, and in fact no rows have been
reported. John p Barnes, democrat
was elected mayor by a majority Of
"a votes, and the democrats also elected
the following aldermen: w. p Culver,
]. M. Parent, c. H. Williams. Matt
Regain and William Forsyth. The re-
publicans secured John p. Corcoran as

POTTERY TRUST FAIL.
a Gigantic Combine With Capital of
100000 to Dissolve.

New York, Feb. 27.-The Herald says
that the American Potteries company
with its burden of $50. O0O, 600 capital, IS
likely to fail in it's purpose of uniting
the potteries- Jefferson Se1igman, who
has been active in promoting the COM
pany, is quoted as saying: I'VE have
subscribed $1,000 900 to the project and
other large houses have contributed
considerable amounts The combination
looked feasible and if it could be car
ried out doubtless will be very prOfita-
BILE. But the affairs of the company
are not particularly satisfactory just
now. How they will eventually develop
remains TO be seen but if everything is
not made satisfactory we will with
draw
J W Seligman & Co. were credited
with being the promoters of the Amer
lean PotterieS company, which was in
cOrporated in Trenton, N J., on De-
cember Is Of last year. There were to
be go. 900 shares at a par value of 500
One hundred and thirty-fve thousand
of these shares were preferred, on which
the interest was to be Z per cent The
fncOrpOrators were Charles N. King,
Ernest T. Charles and T. Frank Far
reIL Ninety per cent of the potteries
in the country, it was asserted, would
join the combine, and the plan was to
leave the market east Of Pittsburg to
the Trenton and West Virginia potter
les while East Liverpool and Ohio
would supply the west.
