The XanIIic

Mexico has an Indian war on its
hands and the prospects point to a
long and severe one. The Yaquis are
descendants Of the Aztecs-the abort
gines Of the country, and they have
never been conquered. The Spaniards
endeavored repeatedly to bring them
into subsection but failed. Nor has
any administration of the Mexican
government subdued them al
though army after army has been
sent against them. They live on the
shores OF the Gulf of California and
their country extends back into the
Businesses of the Bacutete Mountains
where white men have never pene-
trated. A railway has lately been
completed from Nogales In Arizona
to Guayaquil on the Gulf of Californ-
ia in Mexico by which Mevico can
send its armies into the Yaqui coun-
try.
These Indians lately rose against
the white people who were making
explorations for gold and massacred
them, including number of Ameri-
cans.
1t seems to be Mexico's purpose In
view Of their frequent uprisings TO
prosecute a war of determination.
This tribe is said to have mum bered
300, 1000 at the time of the Spanish in
yasion. 1t is considered that they are
now able to place 5000 men in the
field armed with winchesters.

The Twin Mountain mining district.
which received considerable attention
about II years ago, is again forging
to the front, and will, in the near fu-
ture, amply repay those hardy pros
pectors who have had the pluck and
foresight to stay with it.
The district is about 20 miles south of
Anaconda, and is six miles over the
line in Silver Bow county. 1t is situat-
ed on the crest of the Rocky mountain
system, between the gold belt of French
gulch and the famous gold mine owned
by DR.. G. w. and Perry Beal, which
is one of the steadiest and best gold
producers in the Northwest. The Beal
property is in the Siberian district,
which adjons the Twin Mountain dis
trict, and is at the extreme head of
German gulch
The altitude is 9,125 feet, as esti-
mated by James MacFarland in 1889,
in Anaconda.

The first discovery was made by w.

ply the placer mines below in German
| gulch. Owing to the fact that carbon
ate ore was practically worthless at
| that time, it was not located until June
| 13, 1888. and then by Joseph G. Fletcher
and the discoVerer. w. r. H. Edwards.

The geological formation is dolomite
lime and porphyry veins contact; the
minerals already found by assay are
lead, silver, copper and gold. The
mineral belt is eight by four miles;
there are about 400 locations which
for the greater part, have been aban-
doned owing to the decline in silver.

that it was much easier for boy TO

Three thousand copies of the above
notice have been sent out by the city
clerk. and on Tuesday the five days
will have elapsed and then the health
ordinance will be enforced.
On Tuesday the residents will have
to get to work and clear the alleys and
the yards of all the winter garbage.
The weather is now getting warmer
and the excuse which was given last
week in regard to the frost will not
be accepted any longer. and the ordin-

fine must not be less than 81.
At Friday nights council melting the
matter of the yard and alley cleaning
was brought up by Mayor Lesser. He
declared that the yards were in very
filthy condition and that this state of
affairs was a great danger to the pub
lie health.
The members of the health committee
both expressed the opinion that the al
leys and yards were in better condi-
ton now than they were at this time
last year.
Chief of Police White was given or
ders to enforce the health ordinance in
all cases where he believed that the
filthy condition of the yards and alleys
is due to the negligence of the resi-
dents.
The chief started in on his work yes.

of people in regard to the notice. Or
Monday morning he will start out or
