The way money is generally lost in mining is somewhat in the follow- ing manner, as described by your old friend, Colonel Horst. 'file gal- lant colonel has had cot sderable el pert , - rice, o tuired in Nola la, Cal- ifornia and various other states. He owns an important group of mines in Jefferson county. They have a stand- ing joke about his not coming to Montana for the benefit of his health. Few of us come for our health. We come for wealth. I'll give you Hoist's weeds, or rather a synopsis of them, from memory, as near us I can remember them: \A party having a bond on a mine somewhere in Montana appears in San Francisco, New York, St. Louis, Chicago or any other large city, and there attempts to negotiate a sale of the property, of which he has an elaborate and eloquently written, bet not altogether perhaps reliable, report. With the aid of an able agent he succeeds, we will suppose, in forming a company to buy the mine. This company intends, per- haps, to keep its purchase and work it for the profits it may produce, but more generally, incorporate with a large nominal capital and issuing shares perhaps to the number of mil - Hone, place them on the market. Whatever their object, a flattering, tavorable report must be had on the mine, and therefore an expert must be sent to examine it. Here is where companies make their first fa- tal misstep. The majority of pro- fessional \experts\ are not at all qualified for performing the duties assigned them. They are exposed to many trials and temptations. Without leaving at their doors any charges of mercenary motives, spe- cial sine, bribery, influence, etc., they are wanting generally in that practi- cal knowledge so absolutely neces- sary. Without such knowledge no one can be a safe adviser on mining property. It is not enough that an erpert should be a good judge of ores, estimating their quantity and quality, understanding their treat- ment and value. He should also be a g •xl judge of human nature and understand thoroufhly all the condi- tions bearing on a mine, whether fa- vorable or unfavorable. The \pro- fessional expert\ conies to Montana, runs through the mine or over the c ued, picking up at haphazard in spot end that sow) ore for assay. Ile tusks a few questions of Tom, Dick and Harry, or any one he thinks knows anythiug abtut the mine or lity, and in a few days, perhaps a few hours, 'his work is finished. What can an \expert\ learn about a mine from such an inspection as that? Is the knowledz i e ss i mu m may acquire a vestment of large se Wouldn't you rather rely upon a re- port from such men as Tommy Cruse of Drum Lnmmon, or Marcus Daly, esq., of Anaconda fame, or Pat Clarke, of the Poorinan? Do you think these three famous mining men could, even if they desired, take in any reports they might make about the eocene, the miocene, the pliocene, t he riocene, the diocene or the shiocene; about an- disite, propolite, diorite, etc., and absut numberless other \enes\ and \ikes\ to be found in the generality of \professidhal\ and scientific ex- pert's report? The employers trust- ing to the expert's advits are very often misled at the start. Having started wrong they generally contin- ue wrong. Going wrong in their choice of an expert, they go wrong just as often in their choice of a mine superintendent, selecting, instead of an experienced man, one who knows little or nothing about mining but who has influence, relatives or friends to recommend him. The outcome is what might be expected -watered stock, assessments, difficulties, disap- pointments arid a final loss of the mon- ey invested. This is what comes through the employment of incompe- tent experts and superintendents. The fault lies with the management, not with the mine. It is now midnight and I must ad- journ to Buttes Delm on i co --Cos i I i n's Arcade -to drown my indignation against these swindling corporations in a few basins of mocha coffee and a few plates of Puget Sound oysters --a fit banquet for the godson Mount Olympus. SO I'll wind up this long communication by saying, adios. Mosta.* Horses. The horse interest of Montana is promised a very brisk season the coming spring. The continued ac- tivity in railroad building will keep up a spirited demand for sirvicable work horses. The success of our mine owners will foster a demand for fancy steppers in our principal cities, while growers will seek with a greater ef- fort than ever for choice breeding stock. It is noticable as our people become better fixed that there is an increased disposition to improve the breeding animals. Those who are breeding roadsters want to infuse new blood, and the draft I o-,emen %ant larger and purer bred sires. There is a spirit of improventent, prevading the whole country and the past sea- son having been one of prosperity, the majority are in a shape to make such improvements as they deeite. Horses of all kinds demand good prices, and those who have geldir to sell can dispose of the and am m to their studs to a good advantage. Professional breeders are also well The Features owi i B et c ,, cz , nr i ' i. s i Repart On Wssnirtrrox, March 4.-Repre- ntative Springer, on behalf of the majority of the committee on terri- tories, has prepared a report recommending the passage of what is known as the omnibus bill to enable the people of Dakota. Montana, which heirsillaDnpAreKareilinAt,-otfo 90,596,480 acres; Washington temtory and New Mex- ico to form state 1,,rovernments and be admitted into the Union. It says, acres; an estimated population in 1887 of 568,477, and a taxable , prop- erty valuation of $157,084.360. It is eonceded that in point of popula- tion, agricultural and mineral re- sources arid all other matters which constitute a state, Dakota is fully prepared for admission, and in fact no other territory equally prepared for statehood has heretofore failed of admission into the Union. This fail- ure is attributable to the fact that all organized efforts heretofore made in the territory have had division in view. Regret is expressed that even now there are some well disposed people in the territory who srill in- sist that Dakota should not be ad- mitted into the Union as one state, and who prefer there should be no admission until division is accom- plished. Attention is called to the feet that 26,847,115 acres,' comprising more than one-fourth of the entire area of the territory, is Indian re ervation land and Occluded from the jurisdic- tion of the proposed state. The cli- mate in the northern portion of ti e territory and the character of the lands west of the Missouri river are also stated to be such as to preclude the poLsibility of dense population in those regions. If, however, the In- dian titles should hereafter be extin- guished and the population become so great as to make a single state government unwieldy, congress may provide for division into two states. MONTANA Has an area of 92,016,648 acres. Her population is estimated at 175,000 and her taxable property valuation in 1886 was computed on a low ba- sis at $55,076,871.
