START OF THE FEUD.
senator Clark Had To Pay Marcus
DAILY Eighty Thousand Dollars
for "a stream.

Gus" Schmidt tells this story in
connection with the trouble of senator
Clark, of Montana. who is bitterly pur-
sued by Marcus Daily, says the Indian
apolis Press:
THE start of this feud dates from
their early mining days when Clark
was dependent on the water from a
small stream for the successful work
ing of his mines. DAILY bought the wa
ter right for $4,000 and compelled
Clark 10 pay $4,000 for its use.
~ further item, which goes TO show
Clark's luck, or pluck, is that n prom
inent western smelling company was
financially embarrassed, and as it was
at a time Of panic the company could
not obtain ready money. Clark exam
ined its books, and, finding them in
good condition. took $i0O,OoO stock in
TIE company. In going over the books
he noticed n carload of ore once in
awhile that was exceedingly rich, and
made inquiry of the name of the mine
from which the ore came. lie was told.
and went to the mine dressed as a
miner ard hired himself out to the -four
young raen who owned it, and went 10
work as a miner. After seeing the
wealth of the mine he bought it for
$4,000. and this mine is now making
him Millions"

occurs in spots; IL is an incidental,
and. Ia fact, would not be worth min
Ing, II mined for its own value; but II
Is worth el0 per ton In London, and
whenever a railroad reaches the mines
It can be proitably shipped. As 1t Is
encountered In the diggings 1t is
thrown aside, and thousands Of tons
OF 1t now lies exposed. To get 1t to
the railroad would cost Sl5 per ton,
and by the time 1t reached London
there would be no profit In IL. But
when a railroad runs near the mines
1t ear be shipped at no cost
than the present charges from Great
Falls, and then there will be a hand
some profit. Ii is practically value
less now; but some day that which, Is
lying around the mines will be worth
many tens Of thousands Of dollars.
The supply ofcorundum is constantly
increasing as the mines are worked,
and thus the owners are pillng up u

after the s%apphires may have been
exhausted-if that time should ever
come.
