DEER LODGE NOTES.
We are now enjoying our sum-

mer.
Brother Redmayne's flower garden
loois very "seedy."
Mr.. Chas. Barney has been en-
7 ployed as Assayer for the Company.
Mrs. H. II. Cooper will depart
soon on visit to her parents at De-
lamar.
Mrs. NJ. Glisssn returned to Deer
Lodge last Monday, also Miss. Julia
Lynch.
Mrs. V. G.. Redmayne departed
Last Sunday on a visit to relatives at
DeIamar.
Ii is rumored that Jack Ryson
contemplates opening up the wet
grocery very soon.
Mr.. j. V. Lane and family have
moved over to the Ross mine. Lane
is guarding the coyotes.
Mrs. 0lstrom is running the res
taurant of Deer Lodge and provides
the table with the best the market
affords.
The mining claims of this district
are now being thoroughly sampled.
Messrs Lund and the young Nc
Cune keep on the move.
Mr.. Jerry Mooney, formerly of
Butte City, Montana, arrived in town
the other day and was installed as
Foreman of the Company's mines.
Mr. James McFarlane, the Gen
eral Manager of the Horseshoe
Mining Company is here and has as
sumed charge of the affairs of the
company in person.
w b. Slawson, one of the owners
of the Homestake group, left here
Sunday morning for Tintic, Utah,
where he will be in charge of mining
property in that district
The claim owners of Eagle Valley
district are all smiles in anticipation
of realizing, in the near future, un-
told wealth out of their mining
ground. Keep pushing boys and
open up big.
Currency is scarce in town, but
checks are quite plentiful, and the
owners thereof have Il soft thing
They buy what they want and don't
pay for it. The dispenser Of wet
goods looks sad.
Word comes from Boston that the
Mountain View mining company is
preparing to resume active opera
tons upon the Ross and other min
ing properties owned by them. At
the last meeting of the comps any an
entire new set of officers were elect
ed.
Like all the new mining localities,
most of the owners of claims here do
not under-value their property.
Judging from a few remarks listen
ed to we seriously fear that the Lord
will be compelled to draw his clouds
"Lettle" higher up so as to give
us claim owners an opportunity to
expand. We are all expansionists at
Deer Lodge.
Deer Lodge is filed mp and it is
difficult for person coming here to
secnre lodgings. Planks, there are
none, thus depriving our residents
the pleasure of extending to the
stranger the hospitality of the soft
side. However this will soon be
remedied, as Bishop Moody contem-
plates the erection of tabernacle for
dodgers.
The Horse Shoe Mining Company
operating at Deer Lodge have order
ed two steam hoists, one for the
Horse Shoe mine and and for the
Homestake mine, also $1,000 feet of
lumber. This is sure indication OF
the mines looking we'll, and that the
camp will come to the front. They
have about rs men employed at
present and it is the intention to put
more on as room can be made for
them.

THE HEMP INDUSTRY.
IL HaS Lost Its Former Position
Among American Rural
Industries.

The hemp industry is already estab-
lished, though it should be extended
in order to recover its lost position
among American rural industries.
Where in the past we produced 10000
tons Of hemp in the United States we
now produce less than a fifth of this
quantity The cultivation of fax in the
United States before the days of the
present factory system was so wide
spread that il was of national impor-
lance. Its manufacture was largely a
home industry, however, conducted by
the freside, aud. as in ancient Greece
and Rome. the work was performed by
the women of the household. With 1he
advent of the factory system came COM
petition; the housewife laid aside her
spinning wheel, the clumsy homemade
loom fell into disuse, and the farmer
grew no more fax fiber. Then the fax.
seed industry was extended. and after
the close Of the war large demand
sprang up for coarse fiber for the
toughest of uses-for bagging and up
holstery, in connection with hemp
and hundreds Of little tow mills came
into existence In the middle and west
ern states-C. r. Dodge, in Appletons'
Popular Science Monthly.

Ottumwa Army Officers Who Knew
Him In the South.


Major General Henry w. Lawton,
who was shot and instantly l.illed Mt
San Mateo, p. L., last Monday while
standing in front of his troops, organ
lied the division of the army corps at
jacksonville of which Company G, Of
this city, was Il member. Col. Caugh-
Ian met the general at banquet one
evening in Jacksonville and describes
him as a very approximate man, some
thing very rare in regular army Off
GER. The colonel had some conversation
with him of social nature but re-
members nothing out OF the ordinary
connected with him. Captain Eckers'
much less formal way. When Company
g reached Jacksonville in the early
morning, Captain Eckers awoke from
a sound slumber and getting out of his
berth dressed and left the car. While
walking around he met a nice appear
ing man dressed in citizens clothes
whom he supposed to be a civilian talk
ing constitutional. The stranger and
Captain Ecllers fell into conversation,
the former inquiring how the latter
was impressed with the country and
how soon they expected to see active
service in Cuba. Frank did not know
who the stranger was, and probably it
would not have made any difference il
he had but some time after he saw the
stranger again and was told that it
was Lawton. He Immediately began to
search the archives of his memory to
place the face that looked strangely IA
miliar and finally recalled the incident
that had occurred the morning of his
arrival

CHANGE OFF TACTICS.
Bryan Reported to be Thinking Of
Dropping silver Question.

New York, Dec. 21.-Eugene v.
Brewster, who for some time has been
closely in touch with William Jennings
Bryan, inspired a resolution which was
passed last night by the executive
committee of the democratic ways and
means committee for Kings county, OF
which Mr.. Brewster is chairman. The
resolution states that it is practically
settled that bimetallism cannot be put
into practice for years to come, and
calls upon the democratic party to de-
clare for n paper currency only, hav-
ing no qualities of redemption, and adj
vises that steps be taken to submit the
question of constitutional amend
ment to that effect to the American
people. This declaration is believed
to have considerable significance in
view of the fact that Mr.. Brewster is
looked upon as Mr.. Bryan's individual
representative in Kings county. He
has been in communication with Mr..
Bryan and other silver leaders for
some time, and, although he will not
admit that the proposition put forth in
the resolutions is sanctioned by them,
The does say that he believes it en-
bodies the sentiments of a majority OF
the Bryan men of the country.

IOWA IN EVIDENCE.
Speaker Henderson and senator Allis.
on in Positions of Great Power.

Washington. Dec. 21.-Wellman spe-
cial to Times-Hernld: Iowa is very
much in evidence at both ends of the
capitol. just now many of the states
men of the two houses are on anxious
seats concerning the committee assign
ments and they find an Iowa man
the arbiter of their fate at both ends
OF the line. In he house of represents
tives Speaker Henderson of course has
everything to say as to the committees,
and in the senate the reorganization of
committees is controlled by the so-
called Steering committee" OF the re-
publican majority, and of this commit
tee Senator Allison is the chairman
and leading spirit. Senator Frye, of
Maine, is the president of the senate.
bur Senator Allison is the most influen-
tial man in the body. With an Ohio
man in the White House. an Iowa man
at the top in senitte and house and an
Illinois man chief justice of the SUI
preme court, it is easy to see that the
great west is getting along right well
at the capitol. thank you.

SENATOR ALLIsoN,s LEADiERsHIp

Chicago Posts Washington special:
The "big four" of the senate is made
up of Allison, Cullom, Aldrich aud Da-
Wis. These men are the recognized
wheel horses and actually control the
1egislat ionSin that body excepting in a
few specialties. Allison is the ac-
knowledged leader. Next to him comes
Culiom. II is about a tie between Aid
rich and Davis. Close behind the "big
four are senators Spooner and Lodge.
Senator Hale would be in the forefront
If he cared to work, but he has preiu-
dice against close application and de-
votes himself to the affairs of the navy
to the exclusion of almost everything
llelse.t Senator Hoar as chairman of this.
judiciary committee is the recognized
legal. authority and participates in de-
bates on international affairs. He is a
sentimentalist and is powerful in de-
bate, though not always on the right
side. Senator Frye is specialist in
matters bearing on commerce and river
and harbor Improvements. Senator
Chandler is the free lance of the SEN
ate, and is in every charge of dra-
matte sort that takes place. Senators
Elkins, Proctor, Plat of Connecticut,
Fairbanks, Mcmillan, Burrows and Per-
kins of California, are among the hard
workers who always give loyal sup
port and the weight of their influence
to the leaders. Ii is upon the should
ers of the .'big four" however, that
the bulk of the real legislation falls.
Senator Allison is not only at the head
OF the great appropriations committee,
but he is second on finance. and is also
a member of the new committee on
the Philippines. Senator Allison's
leadership has been by thirty years OF
hard work and patient practice of his
rule of life that there is better way
to accomplish things than by running
against sharp corners. He seeks the
lines of least resistance and is regarded
by his associates as the smoothest man
in congress. He has been command
ing figure in congress for many years
and has earned his rank and standing.
He is always suaye and gentle and con-
ciliatory, although behind it all is 1.
will of iron. His most conspicuous
physical characteristic is his soft tread
1t has been said of him that he could
walk on the keyhoards of pianos from
Dubuque to Washington without SCUM
ding note. From long association
with Senator Allison, Senator Cullom
has next 10 Allison acquired many of
his habits of action, and next to ALI
son he is easily the most influential
member of the senate.
