There were several incidents of inter-
est at last nights council meeting. One
was a passage over the bill of Kelly &
them $41.SO for sc%affolding constructed
for Carder Bros, painters, who con-
tracted to do some work on the city
hall. Macarthur considered the bill a
"bare-faced robbery but Elderkin,
chairman of the light and building COM
mittee, contended that the bill was just
and should be paid.
Knowlton said the bill had not been
legally contracted and the chairman Of
the building and light committee should
be made to foot the whole bill.
Elderkin. in replying, referred to
Knowlton as my populist friend,' and
said something about "age and igno-
rance
This brought forth a protest from
Knowlton. He considered -E%lderkin's
language improper.
Elderkin consented to withdraw what
he said in regard to "age, ignorance and
populism," substituting the words, my
wise, my very wise friend"
Then matters cooled off somewhat and
the bill was disallowed.
BY a strict party vote Of eight to seven
the council rejected the overtures Of the
Silver Bow Republican club to rent the
Armory for 500 per month. The build
ing and light committee reported in favor
of the proposition, but the report was
rejected.

RETURN OF EX-GOVERNOR SPRlGGS

from New York and Boston, where he
has been ON business for several weeks.
Mr.. Spriggs is interested in a number of
Montana properties, n his mission
back east was in connection with them.
He says he accomplished everything he
went after. The money market, he says,
was tight when he went there. but dur
ing the past few days it has eased up a
great deal. The general belief in Boston
is that the copper stocks will advance
soon, as the market seems to be improv-
ing.
MI. Spriggs is also one Of the officers
and a heavy stakeholder in the Montana
copper properties in the northern part of
Deer Lodge county. FIe says that a few
days g he received a Telegram from
J. K. White. the manager, stating that a
splendid coppe lead had been struck in
the 290-foot tunnel.

The pay roll mounte to several thou
dollars. The Sunrise company is
owned by an English corporation and has
been operating the Sunrise mine near the
Mayfbower. The company has already
expended about $50, 900 on developqnen Mt
work. Owing to the fact that the Lon
don stockholders some time ago failed to
make the necessary rernittances for the

closed down several weeks. Recently Mr..
