BY GEORGE FITCH.
author OF "a Good Old Siwaeh

Butte is a small cutcroppiag of
Hades in the mountains OF Montana.
liz has. however, been so greatly nit
gated by its patient inmates during
the last few years that people now
live there from choice
Butte is not the largest city In
the country, but claims to be tha
largest city for It's size. It is sit
uated mile above the sea and Is
surrounded by copper mines and
smeltars which produce an atmos-
phere in which mosquitoes, flies and
tomato plants cannot live When a
man has successfully mastered the
air of Butte and can breathe it with
ont corroding his dorsal yertabrae
he can live iii gas tank for days
without DISCOMFORT. When the wind
is in the wrong direction and the
air is white AMI fumious, Butte cit
liens burn sulphur matches in their
homes and breathe them for relief
The air of Butte has had no effect
upon the city, however, except to
rake Ii as bald and guiltless Of yege-
tation as Bill Nye's head once was
The only vegetation in Butte to
speak OF is confined in Columbia gar
dens in lieu Of ZOO, and is pointed

Of natures wonders.
Butte has 10000 citizens, Of
whom 10000 work in the mines and
smelters and the rest boost Butte

polls. This would make approximately
$1,000 men and women.
An examination OF the figures of the
police census of 1909 discloses the fact
that there we're 56,747 males in the Dis
trict of voting age and 6G,022 females
twenty one years of age and over, or a
total of 1875 This year II Is esti-
mated that this total would reach
nearly 140, 600. so that on the basis OF the
tax records as compared with the police
census about one-third OF the persons
in the District who are Of age might
vote on the question Of whether the
property of the District should bear an
additional tax to take care of the def
ciencies in the police and firemen's pen
sion funds.
OF course It would be a task for the
tax officers of the District to discover
Just who would be permitted to reg
lister their opinions at the polls, In case
the proposed referendum measure should
become law.
1t is not yet made clear whether
those resident taxpayers Of the District
who retain a legal voting residence
elsewhere would be entitled to vote. II
