city, Nov. 2, 1S99-Charles w. Goodale,
esq, Great Falls. Mont-Dear Sir: am
instructed to express to you, and
through you to the gentlemen associat-
ed with you, the cordial thanks of the
American Institute of Mining Engi-
neers for the reception given to its
members and guests en- route to the
late California meeting.
although the accidents of travel de-
prived us of much of the time which We
had expected to spend in the inspection
of the natural attractions and the in
dustrial enterprises of Great Falls, I
can assure you that our too brief NOON
light visit was both delightful and prof
table, and we are specially indebted
to those whose skillful arrangements
secured to US, within SO short a period,
so much pleasure and instruction.
Our reception at Great Falls was the
first of a memorable series, bewildering
in extent, variety and magnificence, yet
our later experience has not obliterated
our grateful memory of the picturesque
and entertaining beginning.
"You will understand that the delay
in this acknowledgment has been due
to the length and engrossing nature of
our transcontnental journey, which
ended out a few days ago. Yours
truly, r. w. RAYMOND,
Secretary"

Taxes Coming In.

Great Falls, Nov. 1.-Taxes are COM
ing in fast in the county treasurer's Of
flee and Treasurer Gelsthorpe and his
deputies are kept busy dealing out re-
ceipts and listening to troubles of va
rious kinds. Two thousand five hun
dred and fifty-three dollars was the
amount taken in to-day and $4,000 to
date, which is $4,000 more than vas
paid in up to this time a year ago. and
300 more taxpayers have handed It in
than did up to this date one year ago.
The taxes of Cascade will be about S25.-
900 short this year on account of the
special school tax levy being taken off.
About $1,000 of the special school tax
levy was paid in previous to the su-
preme courts decision and a number of
those who paid in will endeavor to have
it returned, though just how this can
be accomplished is not apparent, as the
money was not paid under protest, and
the law under which it was paid was
not declared void at the time payment
was made.

Glasgow Review.
OF the mailing machine recently pat
ented by 8. Y. Penrod of Teton county
the Scientific American, in recent is
asue, says: This machine for mailing
3shingles on roofs has a feed chute and a
nail holding wheel provided with open
ings by which to discharge the nails
to the chute and turned by an oper-
ating pawl, actuated by hammer. De-
vices are provided whereby the pawl
will be held from operation by the ram
mer when the feed chute is full of nails.
With this machine workman can
drive nails twice as fast as with ham
mer and can shingle in cold weather,
makes it well-nigh impossible to handle
shingle nails"

COUNCIL MEETING.
An Ordinance Against Splitting in the
Street Cars.


Great Falls, Nov. 13.-At this evenings
meeting of the city council Mayor Col
Inns presided and all the aldermen but
prohibiting splitting in the street cars
pany and referred. An ordinance pro-
viding for the regulation Of junk shops
was introduced by Mcdonnell and re-
ferred.
The matter of paving Second avenue
south came before the council in the re-
port OF special committee. The commit
tee had no report to make, but w. c.
Conrad, who advanced Contractor Ca
nary money to pay his men and for ma
terial, addressed the council, stating that
he had taken the matter up as a business
proposition and, while ne had not con-
suited his lawyer, he felt that as Canary
had contract with the city and bonds
men, he could see no reason why either
the city council or the bondsmen were
not responsible. He had advanced mon
ey on the Fourth avenue contract, and
everything had been all right, and he
could see no reason why he should lose
his money because of Mr.. Canarys dis
appearance.
Alderman Dun thought it did look as If
the bondsmen could be made to go
ahead. City Attorney Ewing expressed
the opinion that the council could not
be held responsible, and the only thing
which could be done would be to sue
the bondsmen for damages. All admitted
that the matter was serious and on mo-
ton of Alderman Mcdonnell the matter
was referred to special committee to
meet with Mr.. Conrad and Canarys
bondsmen to take the matter up.

MAKING THINGS LIVELY
Appointment of the Bslknap In
dian Agent.
BRlDGMAN HAS THE PUSH
the Plum = Ringwald Is an Ac-
tive Candidate for the
Position.

Great Falls. Nov. Ex-senator Carter
who came in last night from Helena
mas been busy, particularly busy, ever
since, and the guiding stars of the re-
publican party in Cascade county have
been busy also. The particular ap.
polntment just now occupying the
boards is that of Indian agent for the
Belkhap agency, and it's consideration
is making things lively. How many
candidates there may be on Carter's
books outside of Cascade county may
not be known, but here there are two,
and as Cascade is badly in need of
missionary work, the appointee will be
chosen from here.
MOTIFS l.. Bridgman, the rotund Cen
trail avenue druggist. and George r,
RingWald, assignee of the Ninugh Mer-
cantile establishment at Harlem, are
the two ayowed candidates from Great
Falls who are causing all the senator's
troubles Bridgman has the indorse-
ment of John 7. Athey, chairman of
the republican central committee, John
A. Largent, D. J. Talent, D. G. Browne
ana a lew other Insiders, while Ring
Wald has recommendations by the
stackful from every portion of the
State, put more particularly from Sam
stephenson, and If Sans o. K is not
worth something after the sacrifice he
made last fall in his dummy race for
state senator, then Sam would like to
know the meaning of reciprocity and
now he came to fall outside the breast
works. OF course, Ringwald has more
than Stephenson to vouch for him here;
In fact it Is alleged that he has many
more names than Bridgman, but the
trouble is they are only voters, and
voters only count ON election day.
Bridgman has what ''Hennessy" would
call the push" and it's dollars to
doughnuts that he will get the plum
while Ringwald, who has been striving
for the position for three years past,
will get the senator's heartfelt sympa-
thy. which should be worth something.
In fact, it may be announced as set
tied, barring unforeseen accidents.
Colonel Morris Bridgman will be the
next Indian agent at Bellknap agency,
and that very soon, as the term Of
agent Hay, the present incumbent, ex-
pired on the LIST inst. Incidentally it
may be mentioned that Colonel Bridg-
man will advance" to the rank Of
major at the same time.
