A Christmas Carol.

Ring out ye bells,
Give JOY and mirth;
Peal forth the old, old Story,
That came to shepherds on the plains
From heavenly hosts, in sweet refrains,
That broke the stiffness of the night,
And flooded earth with dazzling light:
ITO men be Peace; Goodwill, on earth !;
To God. on high, be Glory"
Sing young and old.
Rejoice again,
With hearts full of that Story,
OF Star, and Babe, and Manger- Crib,

Those shepherds heard these angel strains:

Governor Hunt in the Christmas mum.
Der of the Spokesman Review has made
splendid review of north Idaho in his
word of cheer and Christmas greetings.
He says in part:
"North Idaho as it is designated on &C.
count of geographical peculiarities or diff
ficulties of transportation. has had its
share in the growth of the state during
the past year. Immigration has come
into it from many Of the eastern states
and its lands are settling up, but great
part Of the unsurveyed portion of the
agricultural land is still unoccupied. A
vast grant Of land was allotted to the state
in the enabling act admitting Idaho. Ap-
plication has been made for the survey
of nearly all this land remaining unsur-
veyed. 1t is not the policy Of the state,
however, to select its allotment from
agricultural lands, but to confine its
further selection to timber in tracts suf-
ficiently large to induce purchase and
manufacture.
Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota
have been the great numbering states.
Their forests have been cut out, manu-
factured and marketed. Large eastern
mills are looking for new fields and are
coming to Oregon, Washington and
Idaho. The Idaho white pine has no
superior. We have it in almost limitless
tracts and the manufacturers are now
scrambling for it. During the present
year the state has granted franchises for
the Improvement of three northern
streams-Priest river, Pack river and St.
Maries river and tributaries. Contiguous
to each of these are situated some very
large bodies of timber. These improve
ments are necessary for driving the
streams and next season will inagurate
an industry in the vicinity that will i'm
volve the employment Of hundreds Of
men, and fortunately the state owns a
large portion of this timber, 50 that no
monopoly can be had Of the whole north
of the state, except. perhaps, Of the inn
mense railroad holdings Of timber lands.
"rhe mines Of north Idaho are among
the famous ones of the world, producing
and paying notwithstanding the lead
mines of the Occur d'Aledes are restricted
in their output by the trust. Idaho
county. in the vicinity of Buffalo Hump
especially. is this year developing some
properties Of great substantial merit. but
tits in the southern part Of that country
what is called Thunder mountain
that will next season be entered by
thousands Of miners and prospectors and
just now seems to justify the claims that
have been made for it. It will realize
one of the old time stampedes that
periodically strike western mining dis
tricts.
"The attractive portion Of the United
States just now for immigration rs Ore
gon, Washington and north Idaho. The
resources Of this country for agricultural
purposes can not be surpassed and the
wheat, fax and fruit of some Of this
country Is . revelation to the eastern
farmer. This country will receive an inn
migration next yesr that will supass any
thing in its recent historv.'

statement that after January Ist the leas-
ing of Indian lands would be dliscon-
tinued until the agency could overcome
its present congested business.
Mr.. Stranahan is quoted as follows:
II have just completed preparations for
q statement Of the years business up to
December IS. The recent census showed
the number Of Iudians belonging to the
tribe to be 1867. Up to the present time
1890 land allottinents have been made to
Nez ~Perce Indians and II more have
been recommended and now await ap-
proval of the interior department
The original allotment included I77,.
9o7 IS acres. There was also AZ ,o4o acres
reserved for the tribe and I84o acres re-
served for agency and industrial school
purposes. The original allotment was
made over six years ago and in IS years
more the land will become the property
Of Indian possessor and can be sold Or
otherwise disposed Of by him. OF the
original 1890 allottees of six years ago.
637 have since died, each leaving land

II am expected to exercise supervis-
ion and to keep constantly informed OF
the changes Of heirships by birth. mar
riage and death for the period Of IS years
hence. ct the end Of which period at the
past death rate there will not be one oi
the original aliottees alive. All ailot-
ments will become the property Of the
heirs Of the original allottees."

GREAT ACTIVITY AT ELKH0RN
Large Shipments of Machinery to the
Old Jefferson County Camp In

Wy f1SSUCldJeu 1TGSS.J
Boulder, June 18.-Shipments of ma
chlnery have recently been going by the
Northern Pacific to Elkhorn. where every
thing is in readiness for it's installation
and use, and indications are favora BILE
that under the developments of the old
Elkhorn mine undertaken by the new
Elkhorn Silver Mining company of
which the Longmaids Of Helena are pro-
motors and owners, the old camp will be
quite lively this summer.
Messrs Whitley and Gum of the East
Helena smelter, which owns the iron
mine near the top of Elkhorn mountain,
went there Saturday on tour of inspec-
ton.
The smelter is again ready to use the
ore, the roads are in fairly good condition
and large shipments will be made soon,
giving employment to about SO men.
At the Elkhorn Queen mine, under OPP
GRAFTON by Hill Robinson, some excel
lent ore is found at the 550-foot level 1t
shows pure silver both as wire and flake
silver, and is like the richest ore that
was taken out Of the old Elkhorn NINE
Another iron mine is being opened
about IL miles east Of here with haul
Of six miles to Finn station. There is a
large body of iron ore, which is quarried
easily, and which, it is claimed, can be
shipped with profit to the East Helena
smelter.

WOMAN BREAKS INTO THE CASE
Mrs. Charlotte E. Smith Is Afraid Her
Stock Will Depreciate in
Value.

New York, June 18.-Mrs. Charlotte T..
Smith, who protested at the last stock
holders meeting of the Amalgamated
Copper company against the purchase of
the Butte & Boston Copper company at
the price proposed, namely, about $24,-
O0O. 900, has, through George Alfred Lamb.
her attorney, interviewed in the case now
pending entitled Calvin o. Geer VS., the
Amalgamated company.
Lawyers who have been interested in
the Amalgamated litigation have said
from the first that the. Geer case was
weak from the fact that Geer, the plain
tiff, was merely representative of the
Heinze interest and that his suit was
simply in furtherance of many suits now
pending in Montana by the Feinzes
against the Amalgamated interests and
was brought in good faith. When Ven
ner interviewed in the suit he did not
strengthen the plaintiffs position ma
terially because of the fact that he
bought his stock after the commencement
of the Geer suit and solely for the pur-
pose of intervention
Counsel for the Amalgamated company
have used these facts as very strong
argument in favor of their client.
In the case of Mrs. Smith, howeveX
the situation is different; she purchased
her stock at the organization Of the
Amalgamated Copper company for cash
and as an investment, and holds the
original shares in her name now and has
since she purchased the same. Her rea-
son for intervening is that she believes
the proposed enormous issue of stock to
exchange for properties of doubtful value
will depreciate the value of her invest
