The Irrigated Beet Areas.

Mr.. Henry T. Oxnard, the great beet
sugar man, says that sugar beets
reach their highest degree OF perfec-
tion commercially, under irrigation.
In sugar content, purity and yield
per acre the greatest excellence is
produced by giving the crop the
moisture needed just at the right
time. The sugar beet industry in
this country Is young giant, and the
irrigated beet area is rapidly increas.

improvements will be cut out but they
will probably come pext year.
AS to heating, il has been suggested
that an arrangement be made with
the county authorities to rent heat for
the present. A connection could easily
be made with the court house fur
mace and which would prove adva nta-
geous all around.

BUTTE BUSINESS, LABOR AND CAPITAL.

Nothire is more certain than that the
n,;rino interests. the business interests
and the labor interest of Butte are ''e
same. Whoever assails one assahs the
other TWO. 1t is to the advantage or an
that the copper market ana copper
shares be maintained. and only an insane
man would claim that the men VINO con-
troll the copper surplus or the Dig copper
stocks are conspiring against the value
of either. Such a policy would be sui
cidal The men who are consplrHis ~

in either but are trying to Smash ooth
4)y a campaign of deliberate talsehoou
The purpose of these men is Well known
Their methods are we'll known. Their con-
nections and resources are we'll known.
Their MANS contemplate the closing Of
two-thirds Of the copper mines OF Butte.
The Boston News Bureau says the thing
will be accomplished. 1t declares that

tended to keep capital out of Butte !of
it is certain that if justice is a farce here,
capital will give us wide berth. Last
week it intimated that one company mao
set fire to the smelter of another COM
pany and refused active assistance IN
extinguishing the blaze. While this cam
paign of falsehood is progressing, Butte
is trembling with apprehension of duh
season growing out of the conflict. while
thousands of honest miners every time
they carry their buckets up the hill dis
cuss among themselves whether or not
before another day a court injunction
will throw them out of work.
Butte is still the best town in the
world having the richest mines as the
basis of it's wealth. It is time. however
for the people to study the situation for
themselves The remedy is in their own
hands A demand for justice and fair
play for all interests, and the execution
of the demand, will restore hope and
prosperity. Capital. labor and business,
however, must help one another.

new YORK JUSTICE.

The decision of the New York court
yesterday releasing and generating d.
rector Flower of the Amalgamated COM
pany, shows that the presiding judge has
no disposition TO interfere with, or embar-
rass, a serious and awful business enter
prise Of great state in any action based
so evidently upon matters apart from
the case itself and distinct from any
sense or apprehension Of personal injus-
tce. 1t probably appeared to the judge.
aside from the legal points which had
paramount weight, that in far-off Mon
tana a great mining property employing,
when allowed to operate, several thous-
ands of men and contributing as a lead
ing factor to the prosperity of two i'm
portant cities of the state, was in danger
of serious embarrassment, and that
thousands of stockholders, whose divi-
dends were ready for distribution under
an arrangement entirely satisfactory to
all of them. with solitary recorded ex-
ception, We're likely to be deprived for a
of the money which is rightfully theirs;
and in conclusion it probably ap-
peared to the judge that the business in
terests Of Montana and its reputation as
a civilized state necessitated a prompt
settlement of it's litigation as far as con-
cerned an outside court, to say nothing
of the Importance of saving law abiding
citizens of New York the humiliation
of constant accusation and annoyance
where plainly no good purpose could be
Subseryed.

new DEGREES,

The latest rulings announced from So
recorded that the royal consort of Ed
ward VII has decreed that women at
tending court functions shall follow their
own inclinations respecting the matter
of dress. Fashions decree regarding
lOw-necked gowns has been abrogated
for the time being. Women who have
ideas of their own about wearing clothes
will be permitted to exercise their sense
of appropriateness and select such form
and cut of garment as shall please their
fancy. No more shall shoulders deprived
of pleasing rotundity be exposed ruth
lessly to public gaze and criticism, and
health shall not be endangered by alb
On this side of the water Mrs. Theodore
Roosevelt has made announcement Of
her opposition to any Whim of fashion
that is at war with common sense or
the rules of health. It seems THAI the
rules Of fashionable dress, supposed TO
be inexorable as the laws Of the Modes
and Persians, can be set at naus:.t when
firmly opposed. The rulings handed
down by such recognized authority as
the first ladies of the two most i'm
portant nations upon earth ought to be
sufficient to settle the question. With
the weight of high authority thrown in
the scale against rigid rules of Dress
the way may be opened for great and
unexpected changes. 4 renaissance in
the architecture OF the fashionable gown
may be precipitated by the recent radical
departure from the accepted fashion.

new smelter at Anaconda will create a
demand for more ore than ever, il the
courts do not embarrass the operation
Of the mines. A great boom is likely to
open in the spring. In the meantime
let Butte enjoy the Christmas holidays.
Let the men delight their wives and
daughters with appropriate gifts, and the
latter reciprocate with cigars that can

be worn. Let the children be made happy.
Let the old and infirm receive tender,r

OF good things and there are deposits
amounting to s12.00OOOO in the Butte

Yesterday decision was reached by
the concerns engaged in smelling lead
ore, whereby the price Of lead will be
cut in order to work off the surplus now
on hand. The price paid miners for the
ore has already been scaled down, and
the new schedule will go into effect the
first OF the year. All who are interested
in the production of lead ore will hope
TO see the plan adopted by smelling COM
panies carried to a successful issue, but
the blow to the lead producers is a severe
one. While the low price continues a
number of mines will he compelled ia

The landlords OF Butte who own the
stores in the business center would do
an act Of Christian grace should they
reduce the rent Of their tenants. Wages
are high and copper is low. The profits
of merchants for the time being are low.
while their rents are the highest paid
in the world in cities of the size Of
Butte. The landlords should reduce the
rents until the business revival which
always comes with the spring.
