A CITY OF DESTINY.

A special dispatch to the St. Paul
Pioneer Press, from Butte, sent out
by newspaper man who stands
very close to Marcus DAILY, says:
Marcus DAILY, president of the
Amalgamated Copper company, who
left for New York this evening, in
an interview says the Boston and
Montana and Butte and Boston
Mining companies are to all intents
and purposes in the new company
with the Anaconda, Parrot, Wash
ington and Colorado companies.
The output will be nearly double,
and he says the scare created in
some parts of the state by fears of a
shutdown of some cf the properties
is unfounded.
1t is the intentions, Of the new
company to smelt most of its ores at
the Boston and Montana smelter at
Great Falls and to do most of it's re-
fning there.
This adds weight to the previous
statement by the copper magnate,
and points to an era of boom for the
city of destiny. Great Falls pre-
sents advantages in the line of man
ufacture and commerce which dcsig-
nate her as the coming city of the
great and growing west. Her
matchless facilities of water power,
coupled with adequate means of
transportation give her the lead of
would-be urban competitors as long
as the Missouri river continues to
run.

One of the hardest duties of an ed.
itor, says an exchange, is to whoor
it up for his own town, announcing
its superiority over all its neighbors
when he knows that the advertising
columns of his paper indicate that he
is liar. Editors are human, pos.
sessed of a conscience, and work anc
write with the greatest vim wher
their purses are not empty. No towr

dite matters, and work will be going
all along the line at once. One
contract is for the excavation and
masonry at the mill site; another is
for building the mill; third for the
tramway; fourth for the ilume.
All this work will move ahead at
at once. Mr.. l.. S. Mcclure is the
manager of the entire concern, and
Mr.. G. F. Bartlett is the supervising
architect and mill-wright. The
timbers will be framed on the
ground and Neihart men will be
given the preference of employ
ment.
In the absence of exact calcula-
tions, it is roughly estimated that
the amount of lumber necessary to
complete this work will be between
100000 and 100000 feet 1t will
require so or go cars to haul it.
Then to transport the machinery of
various kinds will require about 20
cars. These figures will serve to
give the public fair estimate of the
magnitude of the enterprise.
The intention of the builders is to
have their mine opened and produc-
ing ore when the mill is ready to
receive it. To this end the shaft
will soon be baled out and the va
rous levels made ready for work on
proper scale. The company how
ever has a reserve dump Of second
class stuff which they may work, and
men capable of Judging such mat
ters estimate the quantity of this ore
at about 10000 tons. No date can
be fixed when the mill will start
but it is placed at some time this
fall, maybe about Oct. Is.
AS is we'll known, the Moulton
mine, of the Diamond r company, is
equipped with machinery capable Of
sinking 1900 feet. When this mine
opens to supply the mill, the work
of development will go ahead in
workmanlike manner. The shaft
now 500 feet deep will be sunk
deeper and lower works opened
There will be no hitch or delay in
the progress of the work.
Mention should be made Of the
large dumps of low grade ore on va
rious mines about this camp whicl
may be moved as soon as the mill is
running. 1t is probable that the
quantity of such ore between the
Broadwater and the London will ex.
deed 100000 tons. The mill will
make it possible for owners of the
stuff to clean up, and turn to profit
that which has been accounted a.
waste.
Thus the long deferred hopes are
near realization, and the people o.
Neihart see a glorious future. The
HERALD will keep abreast of this
movement, and aim to inform the
outside world of progress as the
work advances.

THE KELLY MOTOR EXPOSED.

The Philadelphia Press publishes an
ton made by that paper of the dis
mantled workshop of the late John W.
Keely, which investigation, the Press
contends clearly proves that the mys-
FERROUS Keely motor was a delusion
and deception, and its alleged mys-
FERROUS forces were the result of
trickery.
In the investigation, which mad been
in progress over week, the flooring
of the workship was taken up and the
brick partition wall removed. The
statements in the article, which are
substantiated by signed statements of
scientists who assisted in the search,
are to the effect that tubing was found
concealed in the brick work and un
der the floor of the laboratory.
This laid bare the possibilities of de-
ception, as the tubing was of a kind
to stand high pressure and could
have been used in connection with
the great steel sphere found last
week which experts intimate was
used as a reservoir for compressed
air or compressed gases, and the tub
ing thus form the agency by forces
that moved the motor in the exhibit
ton.
The contention of Mr.. Keely and his
friends for many years has been that
no tubing of any kind was needed to
work his machines. The views Of Mr..
Herin and Prof. Goodspeed are that
the presence of tubing and sphere in
die ate the use of normal forces and
possible deception on the part of
Keely. In this view Clarence Moore
concurs, and Prof. Wilmer feels that
the possibility of trickery conforms
to the diagnosis most Psychologists
make as to the delusive character of
the Kee1y mystery.

FIGHTING IN SAMOA.

Advices received here from Samoa
state that there has been fighting
there owing to the decision of Chief
Justice Chambers in favor of Malietao
Tanus, one of the candidates for the
throne in succession to the late King
Malietoa. 1t is added that the follow
ers of Mataafa, the rival aspirant to
the kingship, were victorious. Seven
ty-three menwere killed or wounded.
The whole trouble has arisen through
the action of the three treaty Powers
in bringing the deported Mataafa
back to Samoa, by SO doing they
threw down bone of contention and
converted what might otherwise have
been a peaceful election into an angry
combat. For many years the Germans
have shown feeling of uncomprom-
Using hostility towards Mataafa, but
latterly the German officials have
changed their views and have tried to
secure Mataafa's return. The natives
were encouraged to turbulence, and
the lives of the white residents were
endangered. The climax was reached
when Mataafa and his chiefs actually
discharged the chief justice, who is
appointed under the Berlin treaty by
the three Powers. Of course such ac-
ton was purely farcial, and the chief
Justice notified Mataafa that he must
wait for the decision of the court be-
fore he could legally declare himself
king. The most serious element in the
whole affair was the disagreement be-
tween the consuls. The German con-
sui, it is charged, has been playing
double with his colleagues, and the
English and American officials are
indignant. 1t is understood that there
was to be no foreign interference in
the royal elections, yet throughout it
all an undermining current of intrigue
has been at work with the Mataafa
people until they have been aroused
to aggressive action, have openly de-
clared against all white control and
announced the intention of disregard
ing the Berlin treaty entirely. Chief
Justice Chambers commenced his ex
aminations into the merits of the ri
val candidates on Dec. 10 in the pres
ence of a great crowd of natives, and
under the Berlin treaty the chief JUS
tice is the final referee in this matter.
No great alarm is felt at last adVices
however, because Mataafa has only
about 1900 armed adherents, while
Malietoa has over 5000.
