unfortunately the women who are in
most need of these accomplishments are
those who live in the remote country dis

A Democrat Seeks Information.

EDITOR ARGUS: | appeal to you
for information. couple OF weeks
since noticed what purported to be
n call for Democratic primaries to
elect delegates to u town convention.
Now as said call did not provide for
a town convention, and az | have
not yet heard OF any call for such a
convention, | would like to know
what those elected as delegates are
delegates to? II has been suggested
that they are simply delegates To
some OF the street caucusas held by
Doc" and Jeff.
BY the way, it occurs to me that II
was very kind for Doc" and "Jeff''
to choose all of the delegates from
each ward and print tickets with
their names upon them and then get
a half dozen Of their clique together
and elect them. 1t was indeed very
kind, as IL saved the voters the
trouble of selecting the deleg ties.
And those delegates elected have the
extreme qualification of knowing
that they represent "Doc" and "Jeff. "
They don't have to represent the
party.
So far as my observation goes ]
would say that nine tenths Of the
voters would have preferred to keep
politics out of the municipal cam
paign. Had il not been for the
iobbery of those two heavy real
estate owners, doc" and "Jeff, y
partisanship would have been elimi'
mated from the campaign, and that
for the undoubted good vi this com
munity.

The Maginnis Properties Leased.

H. j. Parks of Great Falls and W..
A. Strain Of Portland, Ore, have
leased the mill and mines of the old
Maginnis Mining company for a pc
rlod OF two years, with the privilege
OF buying, and they have already
taken possession. The lease covers
all the holdings, including the Orc
Cache, Montana, p. X, Black Bull
and the Hotter placer grounds. 1t is
the intention of Messrs. Parks &
Strain to open up the mines first, and
as several of them are in bad shapeit
will require some time and consider
able labor. A few men are now at
work, and the force will be enlarged
as the season progresses and cOndi-
tions warrant. The old mill will be
overhauled completely and put in
shape for crushing ore some time
next fall. 1t has been the prey of
vandals and consequently is In d.
lapidated state at present, but Mr..
Strain thinks 1t can be repaired and
made to do good work. 1t is more
than likely, also, that cyanide tanks
will be erected for The treatment OF
the old tailings, in which 1t il esti-
mated that fully $5O,0OO In gold is
concealed. 1t would be gratifying to
everybody to see the old property
among the gold producers again, and
we wish the lessees all kinds of good
uck.
