The Western Mining World calls
attention to delusion among old
timers in Butte, Montana, that is com
mon iu all mining camps, namely; the
tendency to discredit opportunities
for gain which the mines in the imme-
diate vicinity offer and so rush off to
distant parts, allured by reports Of
fabulous mineral discoveries, which
rarely prove true. The World says:
About three times a year some Weary
Willy, long on the usual story of a
mineral discovery, lands in Butte. 1t
generally takes him about ten days to
land few suckers and away they
go. The trips are perilous and without
result. Ii these same would be mine
hunters we're approached by any one
of number of reliable prospectors
from any one Of the adjacent fields of
Montana, they could not get two bit
lunch, but present them something
thousands of miles away, In an mac
cessible country, and the entire ex-
pense of the trip will be gladly borne.
1t is truly stated that Butte money
goes to all parts of the world, and 1t
is just as true that nearly every pro
ducing mine in the Butte district has
been opened up by outside capital.
Another statement that is hard to be-
lieve, but it is nevertheless true, Is that
there is not an original stockholder in
Butte, today, holding shares in her
wonderful mines. The entire profits
of last year amounting to over l6,0oO,.
00ys goes to eastern people who have
greater faith in Butte's mineral posi-.
bilities than the hundreds of old tim
ere residing here for years.

;, Mohave county, despite the fact that
it has one of the poorest set of super
visors to be found in the territory, is
getting along fairly we'll in a mining
way. The fact is due entirely to the
richness Of the ores and not to the
reigning powers.

RuSsia and France.

Russia's attitude toward France is
merely one Of benevolence.
While The French Republic is clearly
not holding its own in strength with
the other great Powers. FTenChmen as
a rule do not know il. and their minds
are filled with dreams Of conquest and
revenge. Their ambition is TO with
draw Italy from the Driebund and into
alliance with themselves. II this could
be done. and France firmly allied with
Russia in matters offensive and defen-

be greatly strengthened. Such being
the case il must be very unsatisfactory

The british War Office Defence.

Mr.. St John Brodrick. British Sec
ratary Of State for War, has taken an
opportunity TO assure the public that
all is pleasant between Lord Kitchener
and himself, and that the prospects in
South Africa are the reverse Of dis
Couraging. Replying TO Sir Charles
Howard NincenUs offer TO raise troops
if the Government needed them, Mr.
BrOdrick last night stated that Lord
Kitchener never had asked for any
thing which was not promptly furnish
ed. that the empire had approximately
two hundred thousand troops. and four
hundred and fifty guns in the field, that
there were one hundred thousand men
in training at home, and that sixty-nine
perfectly equipped mobile columns we-e
in operation. We presume that perfect
equipment includes the pianos. harm0-
NUNS, and kitchen ranges necessary to
mobile British column.
The question arises. How is II. if
EitCheueT's resources are so nearly un-
limited. that he cannot bring the war

ked for the north after his usual fash
ion. Perhaps it might be well for Mr..
BrOdrick 10 send Oy r about half of the
hundred thousand troops in training,
and see what they might do. On the
face of things there appears To be every
reason why the British should make
short work of the Beers. But they are

and probably viii be again. is taking
an active part in the Iowa campaign
The press dispatches contain synoP-
sis OF his address at Manchester. and If
il has been epitomized correctly the
speech was certainly u most remark
able one.
Mr.. Henderson does not seem 20 be
quite sure where he stands upon any
living question before the country. He
is very emphatic in his declaration that
tho gOId standard is a blessing but the
money question is no longer really an
issue. The declaration Of the Iowa
Democrats reafirming the Kansas city
Platform. was altogether perfunctOTy
Nevertheless it may not be wholly inn
proper 10 suggest that during the
greater portion Of the time that the es-
tablishment and maintenance Il the
gold standard was under debate Mr.
Henderson. according 10 his own state
ments, was a long way from being an
advocate Of the yellow metal Like
many others he simply went with his
party. Now that nature has stepped
in with a bouatifLl supply Of gold, a
thing which 40 one anticipated a few
years ago, he assumes that the wisdom

With reference TO shipping subsidies.
Mr.. Henderson is quite as obscure, al
though il scarcely can be doubted
where he will stand in the end. He has
never discussed the subject specifically,
he says. but it can no longer be neg
leCtcd He j. mot satisfied with any
legislation thus far proposed, but If "a
wise plan should be devised looking 20
the interests Of our commerce and the
country. and not purely individual in
terests, it should command careful, pat
riotic. and fearless attention" Mr.
Henderson knows fun well that those
who are pushing the subsidy scheme
have TO use for any measure that does
not specially favor certain interests.
and that such a one as he describes
would be dropped by them in sheer
disgust. IN -hus defining his position
ne is merely laying a foundation upon
which he can support any bill that diff
fers in detail from the one before the
last Congress.
Mr.. Henderson is still a firm believer
in the tariff. He does not know wheth-
er it needs revision or not, but If 1t
does, il must be done in such way as
not To interfere with home prOduc-
ton" He has a serene and tTUstful
confidence that AS in the past. the Re
