A Backward spring

@. w. Ling. United States weather
observer at Havre, makes the following
official report of the food in that neigh.
borhood:
'The frost is not out cf the ground
yet No blowing or any farming work
has been done. The whole Of the Milk
River valley was inundated from the
10th to the 18th. Considerable damage
has resulted in the way Of quicksani
being deposited one foot deep over the
bottom land, which will prevent grass
growing this year. Some live stock
were lost. Representative Moran lost
60 head of cattle. Burt Davis lost 30
head and other animals may be seen In
the valley, for chickens, hogs and other
small animals were drowned, aud wag-
ons, machinery and other implements
washed away or greatly damaged. This
was the highest water in the Milk river
as far back as there is any knowl,
edge of 30 ye lrs at least.
"Since the water receded to its nor
NAL height, dead horses, cattle. hogs and
other animals may be seen in the valley
for miles up the river. The damage to
the settlers is more than can be es imated
at present. Many will be unable to put in
crops on account of the deposits of sand
on their cultivated land. The spring ia
very backward. Heretofore plowipg
and other farm work had got under good
headway long before this time of year.

There is already an enormous amount

MINING IN CHINA.
Comment on Celestial Methods of Eos
tering Development.

Immediately following the Chinese
Japanese war it was generally thought
that mining development would rapidly
follow the big railroad enterprises
which were launched in China on the
restoration of peace. The western
Mining World commenting on this
state of affairs and the results to Cate,
says:
1t was known by the outside world
that mining engineers of all rationale
ties had visited the country and discov-
cred immense deposits of minerals
which had been jealousy concealed
and guarded from inquisitive intrusive
foreigners by the Chinese. Eng and
France and Russia, each had staked a
claim in the empire. England secured
Il controlling interest in the Yangs-tse-
Kiang valley, France claimed Yue-Nan
and Russia hoped to enjoy the exclu-
sive right to develop the vast mineral
resources of Shan-Si. In a word China
was held to be the great mining field
OF the future, rich in gold, silver, prec
iouS stones and metals, possessing
large measures of coal and iron, al of
which would create an enormous met
allurgical industry. Those leading Eu-
ropean powers smacked their lips over
the rich, juicy prospect and felt they
had China almost within their grasp.
This was when the Johns of the Flow
cry Kingdom were still suffering the
smart of the 1ashes Japan had applied
to their backs.
But for tricks that are vain and ways
that are dark the Chinese are peculiar.
No sooner had they drawn their second
breath, looked around, and found their
troubles at an end, they tried to close
the door which they had, temporarily
opened to the nations. They placed
restrictions upon the holders of rail
way concessions and insisted that all
the material employed should be made !
in the empire. The companies couldn't /,
stand the Chinese work, and after !
much diplomatic pressure had been !
brought to bear upon the Pekin gov |
eminent they forced the Celestials to |
yield. But the mining companies were |
net so fortunate. The Chinese think !
more of their mines than they do of /
their railway concessions. They have |
enacted mining laws so drastic in their i
operations that our Chinese exclusion
act seems like mothers lullaby to /
her child. These laws provide that an |
application for a mining concession
must be accompanied by Z sort of geo
illogical treatise, describing the char

MINING NOTES.

The Silver City papers report that
the Dimmick brothers have sold the
Silver Cell and Climax mines to Illi-
nois and Indiana capitalists for $3.50,
900. More native silver has been taken
from the Silver Cell than from any
other known mine. Persons acquainted
with the mines report that the price
is a very small one, considering the
value OF the properties.

some very promising gold properties
which are being developed. On one
claim at depth of fifty feet they have
, a lead four feet in width with an eign-
| teen inch streak averaging $50 III free
gold. Other claims of the group also
show up well so far as developed.
The Utica mine and mills at Angel
Camp are shutting down on account
of scracity of water and the installing
of machinery to operate the mines by
electricity in the future, says the
Tombstone Prospector. The shutdown
will continue until after the rains COM
mence.
County Recorder w. I. Johnson has
returned from a visit to the mineral
regions of the Zonia copper camp and
Walnut Grove and says no finer min
eral country is to be seen anywhere,
remarks the Courier. He went out
with an expert to look at a cyaniding
property in French gulch. The ex-
pert was very much pleased with the
property, and a deal is very probable.
Judge Bethune is preparing to ship
ore from his Rough Rider mine, which,
it is said, is sure to prove steady
bullion producer. In the same district
j H. Hise owns a claim which has an
ore body ninety feet wide. ore from
which averages $12 ton gold, and
some of the ore goes as high as $246-
1t is a remarkably fine property.
Steam wagons for ore transporta
ton will probably be introduced in
Graham county in the near future.
The Range News says: General
Manager j. w. Payne came in from
f. NJ. Dyer, representative of the Best
Steam Wagon company of San Lee
andre, Cal. This company manufac-
lures steam wagons capable of trans
porting seventy-five tons. Col. Payne
showed Mr.. Dyer over the road to the
Grand Reef and the latter pronounced |
It an exceptionally favorable track for !
steam wagons such as are built by this |
1t is not improbable that |
Manager Payne will order two steam
