Ignoble Positions.

The most ignoble of all occupa-
tions in Washington is that of the
man who stands at tho side of a
chief of bureau and bIots his sigma
ture. This is all he has To- do jus
blot his signature. Every Bure IA
chief has human blotter Corbin
sits all day and signs his name, and
signs his name, and signs his name,
and barks at people who arrest him
temporarily in the occupation-and
at his side stands a man who blots
his signature, and blots his sigma
ture, and blots his signature. The
monotony of the thing would drive
an ordinary man frantic. If they
would only employ boys to do the
blotting; it is such CALLING thing
to see man who could toss a bar
rel tof flour on his shoulder pa
tiently doing the blotting.
For the sick room a pleasant
disinfectant is made by putting in
saucer some freshly ground coffee
and lighting piece of camphor
gum ON top of it. AS this gum
burns it emits the odor of roast
ing coffee, an aroma that is most
agreeable to most people. This
perfume has the advantage of be-
ing hedlthful, and is to be pre-
ferred to the pastiles and incense
powders, which to some are very
sickening. The odor of the coffee
will counteract any bad aroma in
the room and the fumes of the
camphor will kill ordinary disease
germs that may be floating around.
What can't be cured most some
times remain to fresh identity.

According to l.. Davis, the abstract
writer, who has the best knowledge of
county records of any man III Deer Lodge
county, the number of mineral locations
filed in the county during 1898 was 304. OF
that number 90 were quartz locations and
50 placers. In 1898, before Deer Lodge and
Granite counties were segregated, there
wer $3.50 minral locations on record at Deer
Lodge. He believes there are now fully
10000 mineral locations in what is now
Deer Lodge county. Were all these claims
represented, which would require the eX-
penditure of 500 on each, it would mean
81, 100000 Not over half, if that many, are
represented each year, but the number that
are represented causes the expenditure OF
several hundred thousand dollars yearly.
Under the present laws a man must sink
a 10-foot shaft or do work equivalent to
that much before a location can be filed.
Before this became a law many men in
the wood business could go into the noun
tains, find a good piece of timber, cover the
land with mineral locations and cut the
timber off without doing much if any rep
resentation work. The new law is a good
one and has a tendency to preserve the tim
Der landS.

The Strike at the COnverterS
is at an End.
MANY MEN LEAVE TOWN
But Some Who Are Married Are in
Hopes of Being Taken Back
Suffering Will Result

Thu strike at the converters at Carroll
has been declared off. The works are
being run as though no trouble ever ex-
listed and the men We're beaten, which
means that 80 per cent, if not all of
them, will never get back again. There
were between $50 and 800 men out. They
are now idle and other men " been
put on in their places. OF that number
at least fifty or more are married and
few of them with n money ahead on
which to support, in many instances
large families. To say there is no suf-
fering among these people is a mistake,
still there is little said about it, yet it
is becoming more evident every day that
some Of these families will in the near
future AVE to receive aid from the coun-
ty. Not entering into the cause of the
walk-out the majority of the men now
admit it was an i~ll-advised affair in
which many were not to blame but a
large number must suffer the loss of
permanent positions, partially paid homes
and dozens of other losses. Innocent
women and children must also suffer the
loss Of many of the comforts and n%ecessi-
ties of life for months and probably
years to come, and all on account of the
injudicious actions of a few who walked
out without first making their grievance
known to the company. Some of the
men may get back but they will be few.
The Anaconda Copper Mining Co. claims
none of them will. Now that the strike
is declared off and many of the old men
who are the heads of familie and own
their own homes and ave always been
known to be sober, Industrious and perse-
Verlng in behalf of the and up
building of Anaconda will, without a
doubt, get back to work, judging from
the tone of some of the officials of the
company who speak in the highest terms

has caused Anaconda to be very dull,
coming as it did during the heart of VIM
ter, which is the dullest season..
with house rent, fuel and provisions
to furnlsh on an empty pocket-book,
some of the men find themselves in hard
lines. Everyone in Anaconda lamented
the Walk-out-cOmpany, citizens and the
majority OF the men who went out. The
men have confessed their mistake. The
citizens are doing what they can to re-
lieve the sufferings of any who may be
in distress and in turn the company will,
it is expected, in the neal future reinstate
many Of the men, which will be equal
to the good news Anaconda received on
Christmas day that the Washoe smelter
would surely be built this coming year.
