Instead, the American\ncommunication appealing for a suspension of hostilities and a constitutional election, together with the emphatic statement that under no circumstances could tlie United States\nrecognize tho Huerta regime as It was\nset up by an irregular form Instead\nof constitutional order will be made\npublic tomorrow.

No\nsentiment exists ln this country\njustify intervention or a war, they\nsaid, and no foreign government could\ninsist upon the sacrifice by the United\nSlates of thousands of lives ahd gigantic financial burdens merely to ad-\nJust an internal dispute in which the\nUnited States is not directly a party\nand over which it. can have no jurisdiction without. Infringing on the sovereignty of another republic, which\nit is by treaty obliged lo maintain.\nThe only interest, It was pointed out\nthat the United States can have in\nMexico Is the protection o\u00a3 tlie lives\nand property. Financial losses can lie\nmet by indemnities, it is believed hero,\nand lives can best Im protected by the\nwithdrawal of the Americans from the\ndanger zone. To tills nnd officials\nare considering the removal of Americans and the payment of transportation for the destitute. A sfrong sentiment in favor of giving the constitutionalists arms on nn equality with\ntiie Huerta faction exists in the senate.

W. Alderson in the\nfourth installment of \"Changes in\nButte In Quarter' Century,\" published\nIn the Mining and Bnivlnocrlng World.\nExperiences common to Itutlc are\ntho common expediences of many other\nmining districts.' Some veins have\nwell-defined walla, some have not.\nSometimes the work of ah Individual\nhas been a fallu're: then another has\ntuken up Hie wfirtf and has pushed on\nto success. There is nothing new in\nthis. It Is but an exemiililicatlon Ot\nthe fact that the Individual unit cuts\nbut an Insignificant figure In the onward advancement of tho race.\nPay ore has not heen continuous\nfrom the snrfacv down in IJutte mines\nany more than It has heen in properties elsewhere. When the Leonard\nwas at the 700-foot level, four crosscuts were made, everyone showing lbe\nvein at that level to be valueless. After developments showed that these\nfour crosscuts bad crossed the vein at\nthe only lean place on that level. With\nmany mine operators work would have\nstopped right there for good, and the\nininu-n.se body of ore below would\nnever havo heen uncovered.\nThe Goldsmith mine was one of thc\nmines of Butte that, prior to my residence in that city, had produced from\nits start in 1884, $150,000, at a profit\nof $120,000. But when I was there the\nonly work being done on the property\nwas gouging out narrow scams of\nqunvtss from tlie outer fringes of the\npay shobt. George T. Hong, the owner\not the property, died April 12, 1912.\nleaving an estate consisting ot non-\nproducing mining claims valued at\n$38,054. nnd an indebtedness of over\n$100,000. Tho most valuable of his assets was tlie Goldsmith mine, which\nwas appraised at $15,000, and against\nwhich there was }>. mortgage for over\nfour times that amount. The property\nwas under lease to C. W. KlHrigwood,\nwho had dropped a splendid business\ninto the mine and what private means\nhe lind besides. A row months after\nMrs. Tong bad been appointed executrix of thc estate, Ellingwood struck\npay ore in a little over six months,\nviz., from-September. 25, 1003, to April\n12,1904, lie paid In royalties to the\nestate $00,204. In the next few months\nhe pdid over $30 000 more. The debts\nof the eBtate. including the mortgage\ntot $07,(192, and other de'bts, making a\ngrand total of nearly $118,000, were\nnil paid, and the estate had cash on\nhand and ail its property intact. The\nproperty was afterward sold for $50,-\n000 and the new owners ran it In debt\nin an endeavor to find more pay ore.\nA'bbut two years ago one of the owners'had a hunch that pay ore would\nbe' found in a certain part of the property. He' Interested three persons\nWith himself and pushed, work until\nthd-jr -Were exhausted financially and\nquit. Another party took up the work\nlater;' drove 40 feet and took (hit\n$190,000 'in a few months. The property stands today developed only to a\nfew hundred feet in depth*.\nRleber With  Depth.\nThe Gagnon was a fine mine near\nthe surface. It waa no good at all at\nthe 700; worse than no good at the\n1,800, and It Is a magnificent mine\ntoday below the 3,600.\nLet us go Into a little more detail on\nsome one mine. We will take the Mb-\ntot*y' of the first qunrtz discovery in\nthe Butte district. One of the first\nlocators of what is now the origlhal\nrtiine was a man named Humphrey.\nHe sold the location to Prof. Hodge\nfor the National Mining & Exploration company, at that time operating\nthe Whltlatch-Union at Unlonvllle, the\nfirst big gold quartfe mine operated in\nthe state. Hodge was a trained geologist, a fine man. and always free in\ntelling the technical name of any\nspecimen' shown to him. A stoi'y is\ntold that Orie day brie of hla men gave\nhim a, piece of caked brown Bugar with\nthe query, \"What is it?\" and that\nHodge answered: \"It is a fine specimen of caVareouB tufa.\" The story\nwna probably made un. but I jHve it as\ntoo pood to ]nse In defending the\nproperty nt ITnlonville against perFonc\nwho having no richt thereto, were removing timber therefrom. Hodge was\nshot In the breast and through n wrist.\nSome time afterward**, tin left the state\nand his companv sent Mm to examine\nproperties at Silver Inlet. Mich. In\nreturning to Chlcaeo the boat he wns\non went down during n slnrm on the\nlake w'th nil on board. As suceesBor to\nProf. Hod*e the companv sent S. J.\nJones to the territory rs Ur manager.\nHis omoloyert promptly nicknamed\nhim \"Sound Judgment Jones\" on the\nstrength of Mb Initials, and the uousl\nInck of reverence felt In those flays\nfor the \"nilgrlm\" in a stranco Innfl\nJones mnde a critical examination of\nthc Orlelnal and eonclud'iif.' ]t was no\neood, he let Ms compnny's interest 1\"\nthe nronertv lapse. In oalllns attention to this T nm not questioning the\nsound judgment o? Jones. I knew him\nnewonallv nnd he was a man of more\nthan ordinary ability. His Judgment\nwas as sound ns that of skilled mining:\nengineers who had to do with the\npronerty Inter, and who WW the veins\nof Butte under far superior advantages. Thus I have before me a report\non Butte written In 1R84 by an engineer named Biunton. nnd published\nin the volume of putters of the Institution to which he belonged. In which\nlie said: \"Both the composition of\ntlie ores and the present, development\nof thc mines indicate clearly that\ndepth will 'be accompanied by a decrease In the nBBny Value of the ores.\"\nfn the words of our present state inspector of mines: \"Experts are nil\nright, but they have made some awful\nmistakes. I have known of several\nlarge mines that have been turned\ndown by them that today are among\naur large producers.\"\nCRANBROOK TO BE\n!

Tlie fact\nwas quite apparent by the financial\nstatement presented at tbe annual\nmeeting last April. It would have\nbeen much better lo have squarely\nfaced the situation then rather than\ndecide to do so ln tlie midst ol the\nfruit season. Realizing then that Hip\nsituation would have to be faced very\nshortly, I made the -suggestion at tlie\nannual meeting that a strung committee of business men he appointed to\nco-operate with the directors of the\nunion and endeavor to work out a\nsatisfactory solution of tbe financial\ndifficulty. The suggest ion was not\nacted upon, the sentiment being expressed that whereas one of the Okanagan unions had broken up about\n$14,000 in debt and another one about\n$10,000 behind, after padding tbe assets visible nnd invisible to the limit\nthat the Kootenny union was only $4.-\n000 behind after two years' operation\nand that directors, manager, et al.\nshould congratulate themselves that\nwe weren't aB badly off as some other\ndistricts.\nThe decision of the meeting to endeavor to run (Mb year by appealing\nfor public support was ridiculous and\nunbusinesslike and doomed to failure\nfrom the start.\nWhile ft few puhlie-splrlted growers\nlike C. W. Busk have given largely of\ntheir means, with no thought that the\nstock of the union would ever be of\nnny value, there are very few ranchers In the Kootenays who are In a financial position to carry much stock\nfrom pure philanthropy. Nine-tenths\nof the shareholders have taken stock\nln the union as a business proposition to facilitate the marketing of their\nproduce. They expected when they\nsubscribed for that stock upon the\nsolicitation nnd promises of the man\nager, that they would at least reap\nsome benefit from the union. In view\nof the absolute failure of the union\nto render any satisfactory results for\nvalue received, it Is surely adding insult to injury to charge the failure of\nthe union to \"the failure of the ranch\ners to keep their promises.\"\nWith generous magnanimity and la\nmentahle lack of business ability the\nunion has turned over all city sales\nand the 10 per cent commission therefrom to other parties. While condemning hy resolution the marketing\nof fruit other thnn hy union channels,\none of the signatories of the resolution boasts within a few days of securing a fine sale for his fruit on the\nprairie. \"O consistency, thou art n\njewel.\"\nWe would not like to hazard a RtieBi\nwhere the $6,000 subscribed stock In\nthe union has gone. We do know\nhowever, that the bookkeeping system\nwas abominable, The suggestion tn\ntake advantage of tbe government offer to loan up to 80 per cent nt a low\nrate or Interest seems tb be the most\npractical solution, provided, however,\nand this should be insisted upon, that\nthere is an entire reorganization of\nthe union and a competent dlfectorat*\nand manager placed in charge.\nThe government money is only a\n\"loan\" and as such must be repaid\nsome time. The ability of the present\nmanagement to eat. Up nearly Jfl.OO*1\nof stock subscriptions In two years is\nwarning enough to every rancher and\nbusiness man to look well before he\nobligates himself by a government\nloan. The present situation is unfortunate, but every fruit growing district has been through these experiences. While experience Is sometimes costly, it is nevertheless a valuable asset, and one experience of letting any one nationality, no matter\nhow successful they have been in their\nown vocations or professions, run n\ncosmopolitan affair like a \"union\" is--\nenough.

A. Voiigny. Dominion government chief engineer, In\nehar\u00abe of the surveys and works In\nconnection with the navlgabilty of lhe\nriver. He reached here on thc steamer\nLa Fleur with a orew of men.\nWork la now completed to Le Pas\nand orders have heen received t\ntlnue to Grand Rapids. A channel of\n10 to 20 feet was found the entire way\nfrom Cumberland House, and hardly\nany extra work was necessary, though\nsome dredging will be required about\nMoose Lake and Cedar Lake, and this\nwill 'he started Immediately, as will\nalso the construction of a wharf at\nthis point. The government insisted\non Prince Albert building a lock\nLueolle Palls, and this indicates that\nthe fullest use Is lo he made of lhe\nNorth Saskatchewan us soon as possible.\nMr. Voltgny estimates that the entire project can be carried out within\nflvo years, and no doubt, eventually,\nthe waterway will lie continued\nthrough to Winnipeg. In conjunction\nwith the government road to tho Bay,\nthis navigable channel, tapping all the\nnorthern part of thc Canadian prairie\nwest, will go a longr way toward reducing the work of marketing grain,\nand the cheaper water rates should\nbring freight tariffs of the railways\ninto line. Nor is this nil. Mr. Voilgny\nfeels certain also about the navigability of the south branch of the Saskatchewan, which, he says, will soon receive attention, All the railway\nbridges have been built to this end,\nand all that Is required Is a demand\nby cities and towns along its course.\nCuriously enough, these municipalities\nppear apathetic us regards navigability of the south branch, while their\nneighbors on the north branch have\nheen agitating for a long time and now\nget served first,  he said.\nPWSTEftFOOO Off\n, QftfCERS' FACES\nForty    Rioters    Commence    Hunger\nStrike In Jail at Mlnot, North\nDakota.\n(Br Dally New. l.rnai.,1 wlrn.)\nMINOt, K.
