GOVERNMENT WILL
 COMPLETE
 LAGUNA DAM.

In confirmation of persistent rumors which have been afloat for some time the authoritative announcement was made yesterday, that by mutual agree ment ]. G. White X Co. have or will relinquish their contract and the work of completing Laguna dam will be done directly by the government.
 Beyond the statement that this agree ment had been reached and was sanc- tioned by the authorities at Washing ton, MT. Sellew, PrOJect engineer, had nothing further to add.
 This new arrangement is most impor- tant and will, we believe, be of imme- diate benefit to this locality, in that it will create feeling of confidence among q large class of investors and home-seekers who think, and with good reason, that when Uncle Sam takes hold of job in earnest there's some thing doing' and things will begin to move. J. G. White 6 Co. $ reasons for retiring from the field are immaterial so long as the government takes hold, and the change will be welcomed by many people.

LATEST MINING LOCA- TION BLANKS AT THE SENTINEL OFFICE.

From long and close observation Of the workings of the federal statute for bidding tire sale of liquor to Indians, we have about concluded that the only way to stop the traffic is to cinch the Indian who buys the stuff and give him the same dose as the man who sells it to him. The Indians who are fond of booze have no conscientious scruples against getting the other fellow into trouble. Time and again have we seen them try to buy liquor at a saloon bar, claiming they were Mexicans, knowing that the saloon man, if he sold to them, was com hitting felony and stood 8 good chance of serving a term in prison. The penalty ought to be the same for the Indian. Then he would go little slow OF the to0Ze question.
