IMPORTANT BUSINESS
FOR COUNCIL
SESSION TO BE HELD TONIGHT
PROMISES TO BE VERY
ACTIVE ONE.

A special meeting of the city council
has been called for this evening to
finish up some of the old business
which has been piling up for some
time. Many of the ordinances have
been before the city fathers for action
for long time and it is desired to
get them out Of the way, in order to
permit the transaction Of new busi-
ness. One of the measures for the
session will be the consideration Of the
plumbing ordinance, which will be re-
ported on by the committee. The
hearing of the protests on closing the
streets and alleys in Sunnyside and
Knowles additions will be continued
and it is expected that the protest
ants will be represented in force. That
old standby, the ordinance for the
regulation of the location and number
Of saloons, will be up for discussion, as
will the petition for an overhead
bridge on Pine street The hearing of
the creation of improvement districts
will also be before the city council
One of the important items Of busi-
ness is the proposition of an improve
ment district on University avenue; 1t
is proposed that the property owners
of the district have cement sidewalks
laid, trees planted, lawns established
and supply any other needed improve
ments. 1t S planned to make this
wellknown avenue one of the prettiest
In the city, as it Is the main
thoroughfare to the university and is
used by all strangers arriving in the
fn
school
Besides the above business, the
council will take action on several pc
titions for sidewalks, street lights, fire
plugs and other minor matters

RIVER At M|SSOULA
IS SLOWLY RISING

The pessmist who thinks the river
is rapidly rising and on mischief bent
will probably be disappointed when he
learns that the rampant stream has
risen only a foot in the past few days.
A water gauge is to be installed in the
river Immediately and daily measure
ments can be taken accurately.
The river was somewhat higher yes
terday than it has been for some
time-high enough to bring down tree
trunks, logs and other debris, which
lodged in the north channel against
the bents built by the contractors on
the new bridge. City Engineer Mayo
had man at work most of the day
keeping the channel clear and seeing
that no more debris lodged in the
stream. The river will need to rise
considerably more than 1t has before
any apprehension need be felt for the
safety of the bridges.

No, but I see the Daily Miner has had h-l of a lot to say about me"
 Mot the Daily Miner, Governor, put the press dispatches.
 "Yes, and many things that were not in the press dispatches.
 ''Of course, Governor, we edit the dispatches, and by little embel- ishment, make them readable"
 Well, "chipped in, one of his ad- mirers, "you may say that the gover- nor denies the story that he was sent home by Secretary Ballinger. That order did not apply to him."
 The governor seemed to acquiesce in this by smile, but did not specit tcally deny the statement.
 The conversation here drifted into general matters and among other things, the distinguished gentleman said that through the pickering of the factions here a man from an outside district had been put in as marshal for this district. He said that Mir. Lyons would certainly be confirmed but would sit in some other district.
 Gov. Hoggatt is not very we'll known in Alaska, as most of his time is spent in Washington, so it was not surpris- ing that he did not have a more dem- onstrative reception upon his arrival here, and that accounted for the fact that he had to be pointed out to nearly everyone at the dock. It also makes a description of him necessary.
 The governor is about forty i've years old, hair sprlnkled with silver. He has clear blue eye and has trained it to look right into the eyes of those to whom he is talking. This would seem more matter of determination than of the proverbial innocence.
 He is smooth shaven, weighs about two hundred pounds, is quite attrac- tive in appearance, and intersperses hls conversation with a few naughty words that are quite seductive in their huency. He also smokes.
 There has been some criticism at tached to Mr. Hoggatt, but it gener- ally IS directed against the condition and not the man. Personally he is a cultured gentleman, and we believe, a good fellow.

1T expect to live long enough to see Alaska have 1000, GOO inhabitants, " decla red John E. Ballaine, who lives part of the year in that territory and part at Seatte, where he is man of influence and prominence, at the Staf- ford Hotel last evening.
 "If Alaska, y continued Mr. Ballaine, "were populated as thickly as the Scandinavian countries of Europe it would have over 20, GOO, 900 people, and I maintai it could support that num- Der as easily and comfortably as Nor way, Sweden and Denmark support their present population of 7,500, GOO. A laska has four times the arabic land of these countries, and it's great val leys will at no distant day be trans formed into productive farms and stock ranches. The mineral wealth of the territory hasn't been scratched, but I forbear to speak of that lest l seem to eXaggerate. It is subject, however, about which exaggeration is almost impossible. In the mere item of coal we have enough for the world' S indefinite consumption and of a quality equal to Pennsylvania's best.
 "Where I live the climate is very nearly like that of Glasgow, Scotland, the year round. We have a district that contains an average of 7, GOO peo- pie and the town has water works, eletric lights and other up-to-date fac ilities. In the entire territory there are eleven daily newspapers. "-Balt- imore American.

The following speech was made be- fore the United States Senate in lS4l by Daniel Webster in opposition to purchasing lands on the Pacific coast. Could Webster have lived to see the change.
 "What do we want of the vast, worthless area, this region of savage and wild beasts of deserts of shifting sands and whirlwinds of dust, cactus and prairie dogs? To what use could we ever hope to put these deserts or these endless mountain ranges, im- penetrable and covered to their bases with eternal snow? What can we ever hope to do with the western coast of three thousand miles, rock bound, cheerless and without single harbor on it.? What use have we for such a country? Mir. President, I will never vote one cent from the public treasury to place the Pacific coast one inch nearer Boston.

A special from Stka says the larg- est seal herd seen for years on the Alaskan coast is passing Sitka, going north to the breeding grounds at the Pribiloff islands. The vanguard of the seal herd reached here yesterday. The herd is passing quite near to the shore. The Sitka natives have killed more than 400 seals during the past two days. They will sell the hides at about $50 apiece. As the herd will probably be about three weeks in passing the Indians will reap a rich harvest. Several Japanese sealing schooners are following the herd. and the Indians report that the Japanese are constantly encroaching within the three mile limit. There is net rev. enue cutter in the enirte district to prevent the Japanese from poaching.

reasons

Mine operators in Butte continue to claim that copper can be produced in the Butte district at as low cost as anywhere Tn the world. Says the Mining Journal. In this connection the statement of well known mana ger, connected with one of the largest companies in Butte relative to com parative costs between Butte and Me- vada companies is interesting. It was published recently that Nevada has been producing copper at cost of seven cents per pound. The gentleman referred to recently visited sveral Nevada districts and he declares that no Nevada company can produce cop per at any thing rear to seven cents per pound, but that the cost is nearer ten cents. Butte companies have made wonderful reduction in cost during the past year, and still greater reduc- tions are possible. The most expen- sive producer in the district, outside of the Clark mines, is the Anaconda company, it's cost being probably a small fraction above ten cents per po,1pd hut tho com plp ti0n Inf new economies now being introduced will cut at least cent off of production per pound. The completion of the new Belmont shafts of several miles south of the main shafts of the company on "Aanconda hill" through which nearly all the hill ore vii be hoisted in time, will mean the saving of the great eX pense incident to the double haul-the ore from the far southern workings to the main shafts, the long hoist and then the haul back down the hill to- ward the shelter. Also, with the con- pletion of the great electric power plants by Amalgamated interest as at Great Falls, all ore hauling will be done by electricity, and all other need- ed power will come from the same source.

Regarding the establishment of a new mail directorship for Alaska, a special from Seattle says;
 Alaskans are making an effort, through their delegate in congress, to have Mai. John P Cum appointed to the office of director of posts for Alas ka, new position to be created for the purpose of establishing new offices and new mail routes.
 Maj. Cum was sent to Alaska by the postoffice department in 1898 as a special inspector. He established off ces where needed and gave personal attention to the Nome postoffice when the great rush took place in 1899 Since then he has been more or less connected directly with the Alaska postal service, and is at present post master of Fairbanks.
 It is for this reason that Alaskans, at the suggestion of the Fairbanks

Washington, May No confirma tion can be secured of the rumor that President Taft and Attorney General Wickersham are contemplating legal action by the government to prevent such speculative operation as that now being carried on in the wheat markets by James A. Patten ard other opera tors. It was learned authoritatively today that the matter was informally discussed at conference held at the attorney generals office, when the matter of administration of railroad affairs was being cosidered. Congress- man Townsend of Michigan stated to- day, however, that he knew of no plans of action on the part of the gov ernment, nor had any plan been form ulated for new legislation on the sub ject.
 Scores of telegrams and letters have come to the president and to the de- partment of justice, protesting against the ''bulling" of the wheat mark ct and flour to such high levels. If any action is ultimately decided upon by the government, it will undoubtedly be under the anti-conspiracy clause of the Sherman law. Congressman Townsend, Congressman Stevens of Minnesota and others admit that it would be impossible to frame a law covering the subject of futures, and that if the ''bulling" of the market is reaching in any way, it will have to be through the Sherman law, and through the proving of conspiracy which involves the interstate trans portation of grain.
 The puzzling question is how to in-
 tiate action or frame law against speculation in futures which would not also operate equrlly to prevent pro- per trading. The offense does not con- sist in dealing in future value, for every manufacturer does that every day, but forcing prices up beyond a certain reasonable level. Ohviouly legislation could not establish a price level, for farmer has the right to sell his wheat for whatever price he can get. The buyer has the right to hold it as long as he pleases. Patten is buying all the actual wheat that is offered him, and paying cash for it, as he has a perfect legal right to do. Congressman are feverishly anxious to take some steps which W i'll pervent hardshps to follow through the in- crease m the price or bread. or tne reduction of the size of the loaf, un- less the Patten deal is smashed, but they do not know what to do.
 It is suggested that the removal of duty on wheat might aid in breaking prices, but the farmer element would oppose that. They do not object to the Patten operations. Besides, the removal of the duty might ease prices in the present emergency, but it would not reduce them at other times, as the Canadians desire free wheat that they may obtain the benefit of American
