Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-08-31

A wire rope 3h inches in diameter was
lately broken at the Royal testing abor
atory by a pull of about $50 tons, the full

ing $50 tons.

| ment was secured against it by the com
pany. A tax was then levied to NEE,
this judgment, and a portion of the
money collected to pay it with. But the
money was not paid over.
Now comes the city authorities with
| the contention that it does not owe the
water company anything. as the consti-
! tutional limit of Indebtedness had been
! reached before the debt to that por
ton had been incurred. In other words.
having reached a stage in it's municipal
career when it could not legally contract
any further obligations it forced the
water company to furnish it with water,
| voted a tax to meet it, and after collect
ing a portion of uhe money from the tax
| payers. who regarded it as a debt of
honor and for value received, the city
nov falls back on the proposition to re-
pudiate its obligations! In making the
contention that it is Judgment proof, it
also alleges that the tax imposed to raise
money with which to meet it's debt to
the water company, was illegal. and that
the money collected belongs to the peo-
pie.
Were an individual citizen to mulate
in his business affairs, he would soon be
assigned his proper place in the estima-
ton of the public. 1t would hardly lie
considered the proper thing for an in
dividual to compel some one to do him a
service. and, after acknowledging the
obligation, refuse to discharge the debt
with money in hand on the technical
ground that he had become Judgment
proof! 1t is to be regretted. not only by
lily governed city, but by the people Of
this state as well. that the capital of
Montana has placed itself officially in
the attitude before the law Of virtually
repudiating a debt tina was honestly in
Cured.
1t is not believed that the enterprising
business men and taxpayers of Helena
will assent to the ridiculous position in
which that municipality has been placed
by those officially entrusted with the
temporary management of it's affairs.
For the credit of Montana as a whole
let it not be said that it's capital city has
supplemented a long and vicious fight on
capital with a reputation of its
honest debts. Helena cannot afford such
a observation-disclosures cannot afford it.

BRYAN'S WEALTH

In the recent interview in that prince
OF yellow newspapers-the New York
~Journal-in which Colonel Bryan reaf-
frmed his loyalty to silver, it was stated
that the story which had been circulated
to the effect hat the late standard
bearer of the democracy was immensely
rich, was false-that instead of being a
Croesus his wealth only aggregated the
comfortable wad of $3.50, 900. The inter-
viewer, who bearded the colonel in his
Nebraska home, and supposedly probed
into details. gave a partial list, of that
gentleman's holdings. Hi
After the interview was published,
people began to comment on the poverty
of the colonel, and wondered how it was
that a lawyer who had reached the ad-
vanced 6 of 81 years before he dropped
Blackstone and took up jefferson had ac-
cumulated only $3.50, 900. 1t seemed. upon
reflection, that a man of his ability and
habits of economy-having built his own
hen houses, according to the interview
ought to have laid aside more than $780,
600 in the eight or ten years in which he
had practiced law in Lincoln. Nebraska!
Having succeeded in demolishing the
story that Bryan is rich, the Journal
noted the effect of it's statement thai he
was eking out an existence with only
$3.50. 600 to his name, and decided to go it
one better. So it now comes out with
the statement that Bryan is worth only
SIS, Ooo-that it's previous was
a typographical error! If the people do
not reach the speedy conclusion that
some OF the other statement contained
in that alleged interview were typo
graphical errors, it is not at all unlikely
that the Journal may try it again and
prove that if steamboats, were selling for
ten cents apiece the great commoner
couldn't buy a smokestack.

mas THE STATE BLUNDERED?

The state board of equalization has
encountered vigorous opposition in its
attempt to increase the aggregate assess
ment of the state, it being claimed that
it has exceeded its powers under the law
as defined by the supreme court in the
case of the State of Montana ex rel,
Wallace VS.. State Board of Equalization,
Is Mont, 473. The county clerk bf Che
teau county has peremptorily refused to
raise the values on cattle and sheep. as
directed by the state board. He asserts
that stock has been assessed It it's lash
value and canno be assessed on values
that 20 not exist, and denies the right Of
the state authorities to raise the aggre-
gate assessment. :
1t appears. on the face of things, that
the aggregate assessment has been
raised by the board. the increase ordered
not having been offset by corresponding
reductions. 1t is now in order for the
state to mandamus the Choteau clerk
and determine who is in the right. If it
can be shown that the state has at
, tempted to raise values in that county
to the extent Of $3.50 on stock cattle and
% cents on sheep and lambs, above their
actual cash valuation, it is time for the
supreme court to probe into the system
Of doing business which has been adopted
by the board of equalization.
While it may be desirable for the state
government to increase it's enu in
default Of the ability of the late demo-
cratic legislature to provide for the cur
rent expenses of the state government
and it's institutions, and in the face of the
confessed dependency of the present state
administration upon the inheritance tax
on the Davis estate to keep the wheels
moving without an extra session, yet
steps to swell the exchequer must be
taken in strict conformity to law and
justice. No doubt litigation will follow
the action of the Choteau clerk that will
clear the atmosphere and more fully de-
termine the powers and limitations of
the state board of equalization.

tended to confuse, on the theory that they
proved the guilt of Dreyfus through a
process quite as complicated as Ignatius
Donnelly's cryptogram. That the judges
may see hidden facts in the exhibit.
which the ordinary observer can neither
appreciate nor understand, is not un-
likely. If so. the prisoner may be found
guilty. 1t seems to be the only avenue
through which the judges can retreat
from the plain case of innocence which
the unfortunate exile is making before
world and before his God.

WATCH THE BUTTE AND BINGHAM
COPPER MINING COMPANY.

Forty dollars per ton in copper gold,
silver and lead is what the ore assays in
the new strike recently made in one of
the mines now being developed by the
Butte 4 Bingham Copper Mining COM
pany. This new strike shows up a body
OF ore fully four feet in width. The vein
proper is over IL feet between walls.
This new discovery was made at a depth
OF lo6 feet in the west cross-cut tunnel.
and only 800 feet from the Utah Console
dated Mining company's wagon road,
and on the same side of Car Fork canyon
as the Utah Consolidated Mining compa-
ny, Pietro. Condor Mining company,
Phoenix Mining company and Reducing
Mining company, only $500 feet from the
Rlo Grande Western railway. The SUI
perintendent. Mr.. o. Roberts, reports Is
tons of a fair grade of shipping ore on
the dump which will be shipped as soon
as the ore chute is completed.
Besides the large vein there are three
small cross veins that average from 10
inches up to two feet. that assay from IS
to $12 in gold, 2H to 5k per cent. copper.
and six ounces of silver. This grade of
ore will concentrate from three to five
tons of ore into one ton of concentrates.
The superintendent writes that the mine
will be shipping enough ore by the 18th
or goth of September to more h pay
all running expenses. TIL stock Is sell
ing fast at 30 cents per share and the
next block will go on the market at not
less than so cents, and very likely at 81
per share.
Now is the right time for one to invest.
Don't wait until the stock has made an
other big advance.

IN the W KINGDOM.

The effort of the empress dowager OF
China to effect an offensive and defensive
alliance with Japan, to resist the agrees
sions Of European powers. is one of the
significant signs of the times. 1t indi-
Gates the growth Of conditions in the
Orient of the utmost Importance to the
world. Conscious of it's W inherent
weakness, in the progressive march Of
nations, China has learned to enjoy the
treacherous fondle Of the Russian bear,
and look upon the movements Of the car
as its only hope in an impending crisis.
No one can carefully study Russian af-
fairs in Asia without reaching the con-
clusion that the car is seeking to con-
troll the destinies of the Chinese empire,
to the end that in military rowes he
may dominate the world. With Russia
in control of all the forces which China
could muster in case Of war-~veritable
myriads of we'll trained men-it would be
invincible upon and and sea.
China may in a dim way foresee the
intentions of Russia, yet its position is
such that an alliance with it's northern
neighbOr is preferable to becoming a de-
psndency of Great Britain. The celestial
empire has learned to distrust the land
Of the red-coats. The opium curse rises
i'll silent judgment against every sugges-
ton of friendship with the captors of
IInrr Enyr 0f %r,n avis thnra 49,
China look upon Russia as the lesser.
If that echo from a conservative past
must depend for self preservation upon
q choice from the animal kingdom of the
day, it will take the Russian bear in
preference to the British lion.
But its anxiety to pool issues against
European civilization with Japan would
seem to imply a disposition to make a
ina stand in behalf of self-preservation
rs an empire and the maintenance of it's
cherished individuality as an Oriental
power. That a crisis is impending can
not be doubted-that the storm may
break in the early days of the new CEN
fury is probable.
From a business standpoint the United
States cannot look upon the remolding
Of Asiatic affairs with indifference. 1t
will mean much to the of the
world, and to the volume of business
that properly belongs to our people. For
tunately, the policy of expansion has
placed our republic in an attitude before
the world where it can have a voice in
the settlement of any international ques-
ton that involves the interests of our
people. Commercial propositions grow.
ing out of the troubles of the Flowerv
Kingdom will not be looked upon with
utter Indifference by a nation whose in
terests in the Pacific include Hawaii and
the Philippines. The eye Of the American
eagle is on Chinese affairs.

REPUDiAT INC 4 DEBT.

1nasmuch as the city Of Helera is the
capital OF this state, and it's reputation
abroad as a municipality will in no small
degree affect the standing of Montana
in the eyes Of the world, it's system of
conducting it's local affairs becomes of
general interest to all. While Helena is
"A CITY of elegant homes, excellent schools
and social refinement, and is the abiding
place Of many of the ablest and best men
in the state, it is unfortunately true that
its municipal affairs are not always con-

Having done a great and permanent
injury to the worthy x-payer and
property owners Of that city by discour-

through unjust and morbid attacks upon

Without reference to the merits of the
fight between that city and it's water
company, which are of local concern only.
II appears that Helena refused to renew
its contract with that corporation but
compelled 1t to furnish water through a
mandate Of the court. This water the citv
refused to pay for. whereapon a judy
