NOW OR NEVER- A question of very great impor- ance is to be presented to the voters of Dillon next Monday, a question the meaning, of which ought to be carefully considered by every voter. We refer to the proposition submitted by the city council for the city to own( its electric light plant. It is prob ably pretty well understood that this is preliminary to a proposition to put in connection therewith a system qf water works. It seems to be neces sary from a legal standpoint to sub mit the two propositions separately, though they are but parts of tho one plan. Cities, both large and small throughout the land, and, in fact, all over tho civilized world, are finding it greatly to their advantage to own and operate their own public works. Aud a ,good many cities which have allowed these to bo put iu by private individuals aro now buying them up, and paying a big price for them. W o have now an opportunity to buy the electric light plant, and with it water power which can be made capable of supplying the city with both light and water. Aud the two plants can be worked in conjunction at a very little more expense than it would cost to work one of them. So that the ex penses of a waterworks system,which would necessarily be pretty heavy, would bo largely, if not entirely, met by the rovonuo from tho electric light plant. In fact, there is great reason to believe that there would be, when once in operation, a net revenue to the city. In the opinion of those who have given this matter careful and deliberate study and who are certaiu- tainly qualified to express an opinion on the subject, this does not mean additional taxation, but means addi tional advantages and blessings to every man, woman aDd child who make their homes in our beautiful city. Aud we hope that with im proved school facilities, such as we look for in the near future, that many people will make their homes in Dil lon. And this will undoubtedly lie the case, if Dillon can be made, as it certainly can be, a desirable pjace to live in. Good water and good lights and the enlightened public spirit which such thiugs represent are among tho essential things which make a place desirable for home. So let us give the proposition such a rousing affirma tive vote &s will show the council that the citizens are with them Heart and soul in this important matter. In conclusion it should be thourogh- ly Understood by all that if this proposition should be voted down next Monday, it puts an end to all consideration of city water works so far as the present council is concern ed. While if this proposition carries a water works proposition will be submitted at ance. If you decide to vote against the bonding proposition, then quit kick ing because the town has no water works and no tire protection. It notoriety is all that Macrum is looking for, he is getting plenty of it. It is strange he did not make his howl before leaving office. If the citizens of Dillon vote down the bonding propositions, next Mon day, it will be the end of the water works proposition for some time to come. The present council will take no farther action in the matter. If its efforts are not seconded by the c'tizens, the ,oottncil_i_s_ powerless to, act in this or any other instance where a œeàsure for the gênerai public well- fate is contemplated. . Governor Smith declined to com- muIeMurdererHurst’s death sentence. In our opinion he did the right thing. Hurst was convicted, after a fair trial, of the murder of Sheriff Cava naugh, of Glendive, Dawson county, in December, 1898. The governor closes ^iis letter to Horst’s attorney with the following: “If he is, in fact', the murderer, a s . J.2 men have said beyond a reasonable doubt, and their verdict has been approved by the trial judge who had heard all the evi dence, and the supreme court, then this is not a case that appeals for sympathy or executive clemency ex cept in so far as it may effect tho^e who are left behind to mourn the un timely end.” Bannack Mining Brief« “TrnthV’secretary,“Veracity .’’sends the following interesting mining items from BanDack: , John lnnes and Forest Hurr have been working on a ledge recently found below Bannack that presents a good showing and looks as if it would stand developing, Mr. Innes has labored for 20 years or more in this vicinity at mining and well deserves to be amply rewarded. Wm. Ashworth came over from the BloodyD 10 k mines during the week and reports his prospect looking fine, with a large dump of shipping ore and a 3 foot ledge, well developed. From the last shipment made by Wm. Ashworth, H. F. Jackson & Co. they received returns whioh paid 28 per cent, copper, $36 in silver and $5 in gold to tho ton. Bloody Dick will be a good mining camp in the near future. George White, Bob Thomas and Chas. Peterson have fine showing on the Butte mining claim, looated above the Polaris. The ore assays 18 per cent copper, $4 in gold and runs well in .silver. I don’t know of anyone that would rather see strike it rich, than these same boys and as for Geo. Washington White, he is as good a man as ever put a collar on a mule or whirled a 30 foot bull whip in the days of forty-nine. With the exception of the Bon Bccord all of the dredges in Beaverhead oounty are being gotten in readiness for the sea son’s work and will probably start up next week if fill goes well with the repair work. Some alterations aro being made on the Coast Co’s boat. Monroe Mann is doing some develop ment work on the Minnesota mine, this week. The claim is situated in the Blue Wing district. He baH a large body of ore of a good grade in sight carrying sil ver and gold. Mr. Mann is one of the most energetic owners of prospects in the county. VAMOS k MEXICO.

MANAGER, 330 OaxtoD bldg., Chicago. 6-I6t 1 I Written for the D illon T ribune .] ARTICLE VII. . ' The state penitentiary, a huge affair, confining 800 prisoners, is at Guadala jara and is well worth a visit. It is fronted by a spaoious plaza with trees, gravel walks and flowers. Here sit a dozen or more cigarette ped dlers at little tables writing messages for the illiterate to brothers, sons or hus bands who languish inside as the result of a jag, theft or some more serious of fense. One may at anytime lounge through the great portal, past the outside guards, iuto the large interior garden with its seats, fountains, gangs of oonviots bear ing water and other burdens inside the building, and rows of faithful women and children awaiting the bell signal for ad mission with their baskets and jars to frieuds within. Doors ranged around the garden, both ou gallery aud ground floor, are lettered denoting halls of justioe, of minor and major detention, etc. Waiting for the hour of admission, the envy of all the rows of unfortunates who come not nitber in joy, we walk up and down near the pacing sentry past^h4 oruel door that seals so many fates. In due time we are admitted by card to the well-modeled and well-kept interior. The penitentiary term is divided into three parts; 1st, penal labor; 2nd, train ing school with a little pay; 3rd, prepar atory freedom, including paid work and many privileges. The different wards radiate from a cen tral garden where the bright, free sun shine streams down upon a fountain. There are only u few women and their ward is least interesting, being simply the laundry. Our guide takes us past men knitting and selling luce, inlaid pearl work, and curios of vuriotis kinds; past swarms of curponters, iron-workers aud other me chanics, busy with their dull, orude tools. All stop work for u moment aud doff their hats as we pass iu the wake of our burly guide. Home of our partly instinctively return the compli ment aud au appreciative smile uud lighting up of the eye show that man hood’s pride is still undethroned. From a central garden there is a strik ing view of armed sentries, high on the outer wall, in relief against the bright blue sky. Returning, we pass through long, spaoious oorridors and among gigantic^ columns, obtaining glimpses of the differ-, ent dormitories, cookeries and depart ments of the institution, while through an open interior window comes the howl of somo madman echoing along the oold, gray walls; moving on hut into God’s free air we feel glad to be among those so respectable as to require a governor’s admission card rather than that of a po lice judge. Suburban tramcar trips of several miles to Zapopan, San Pedro, aud other interesting villages, with their churohee, factories, cemeteries and other sights whiled the shortening time and we began to realize that one month is insufficient for doing Guadalajara. We missed the barranca ride and the falls of Juancntlan. A common sight of the city is a bufro train umbling out of town bearing several ladies and gentlemen toward the barran ca, a canyon in the depths of which the traveler wanders along the river among banana and other hot-country trees and feels the breath of the tropics thousands of feet below the plain. The Saneyore one day passed a party of btirro equestrians looking straight ahead, perfectly demure, and as if that style of looomotion were their ordinary pastime. But, although their eyes told no tales their tongues betrayed. One lady was overheard to say, “I do wish this poky little beast would hurry up and get out of town; I wonder if that gentleman who just passed is an Ameri can.” '■ “Certainly,” said another lady; “he stops at our hotel and I noticed that he admired your horsemanship—or burro- manship. I think I ought to call it.” “How annoying: I hoped we might avoid observation until we reaoh the country; we all look as though we are stealing sheep, and there is papa holding on with both hands while his legs almost drag the ground. I wouder if he thinks a fall could hurt him.” “Cheer up, girls,\ chimed in a young man of the party; “there is an agreeable surprise in store for you; I happen to know the young man in question; I loaned him my camera this morniDg and be took a shot at ns just as we turned the corner; I am to have a half dozen of the VliWS.” “O George! How could you be so mean ? I know you put him up to it aud I'll never forgive you; he is no gentle man, either; if my faoe is recognizable in that picture I ’ll .hire a Mexican to assas sinate you, that's all.” It is probable that the young lady’s parasol concealed her face in the view ss she was. seen to Bmile very sweetly on-tbe camera hero later when introduced at the hotel tor, to be candid, he was not bad looking.

Her limbs had been terribly lacerated by the dis ease, and there were times when fire could not have been more painful. She was, in fact, almost wild.

Y . eat Well, Sleep Well. “ Hood’s Sarsaparilla has been a great blessing to me. I Was weak, irritable, tired and nervous; had no appetite and was always sad and des pondent. One day I got hold of a little book about Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I looked it over and resolved to try a bottle. I was better before it was gone, so I kept on until I had taken five bottles. I can now Bleep well, feel cheerful and can do all my work, including plain sewing, and I can walk two or three miles a day. I am 55 years old and now feel that life is worth living.” M rs .

Critical Period of Life. “ I took Hood’s Sarsaparilla during the critical period of my life, and now, at the age of 60 years, I am strong and healthy. It is a great medicine for the blood.

One day the Saneyore a*'d otro Hom- bre, sitting for a sun bath umoug the orange trees in the patio were alarmed by tbe excited looks and mysterious gest ure* of the Esposa who suddenly ap peared followed by the entire household, servants included. “What is the matter?” asked the otro Hombre. “Come Ibis way, quick,” said Conchita, the sixteen year old daughter of the land lady. All rushed into the parlor and lo tbe side overlooking tbe street. The men through force of habit acquired m the “States,” expected to see nothing less than a house a-fire forgetting for the mo ment that the abode aDd lime-built cities of Mexico the thing is^mpossible. “Look over there,'’ whispered the Es- poHa, pointing to the laced-draped win dow. As many ns could find room to do so peeped through the sheltering branches of the window plants and saw a solitary, well-dressed Mexican gentle man with a anno, standing upon Mie op posite sidewalk and looking up at a Son orità who was leaning over a baloony above him. “ Wèn,11 remarked the the otro Hombre, “is she going to jump down into bis arms or will she pull him u'pstairs with his cane?” “May the Holy Virgin bless you, my dear man,” said CoDohita; “don’t you see that they are playing the bear?” “ Where is the bear?” queried the otro Hombre, quizically, and pretending to look up and down the street. “Oh! >’ou dear old stupid,” exclaimed simple minded Conchita; “there is no bear; what do you say in Montana when a young man goes to see the ladies?” “Oh! that is sparkiDg or courting; is that young man courting his girl at that distance iu broad daylight right before the public; where is her father with his four-yeur-old cl ub ? ” “Her papa won’t let him come in the house yet,” answered Oonohita. “ Why don’t he meet ber in the plaza then or slip into the house after dark? in Montana the boys sit up with their girls half the night.with closed .window blinds, take them to church or theater, and go buggy-riding with their arms around the girl while she drives the horse.” “I think 1 should like that,” ventured pretty Conchita innocently, not noticing the humor that was playing at the cor ners of the old man’s mouth; do many young American gentlemen come to Mexico?” “They won’t as long as that custom pre vails, or rather, if they do they will soon do away with it.” “Oh dear! “said the girl’s mother; “here, when a younfc man fancies a giri amonjj the betttr class he will often walk up and down opposite the house for days before he will even see her face at the up per window, then, if she likes his looks and ways, she will show her handker chief, and, later, they may exchange notes by a string from the baloony but it is often two or three years before be can obtain entrance to the parlor and then only in case her parents like him.” “Dont he ever get to go with her at all?” “Not nnless he invites some of the fam ily to accompany him and then the father may accept an invitation to a ride or the theater for the whole family at the young man’s expense; they are seldom in each other’s company, unattended, nntil after marriage even though engaged.” “I suppose he buys her wedding trous seau, too,” Baid the otro Hombre, with a wink at tbe Esposa. “Certainly,” replied tbe lady, “his pride wouldv dpt permit her papa to tarnish any of it.” ■ While the foregoing conversation was ^oingon theSaneyore,everalertfornov^ elty, had secured his camera and taken a position in tèe spacious outer doorway of the thick-walled bouse.

The oamera clicked anc, observing the operation, the lady disappeared within the house closing tbe sash door behind her. The geutleman orossed to the corner of the street and stopped, oane in hand, aB if waiting to break it over someone’s head. Goming into the house the Sane yore laid away bis oamera aud, all unsus pecting, started up town by way of the very corner where our lover stood wait ing. The two met, the Saneyore rather sur prised at the unexpected encounter and eyeing the stout-looking oane. “Buenos dias,” remarked the Mexioan lifting his hat and bowing graciously. “Buenos dios,” returned the Saneyore; and they shook hands. “Pardon me,” said the latter, \for the liberty I have just taken; I hope thnt you and the lady wilf not be greatly of fended at my impertinence, she looked so charming and the whole siena-was so roman tie that I could not resist the temp tation. You Mexioan gentlemen are so refined iu your way of paying your ad dresses to the senioritas that I would like to have some of my Montana friends see how it is done; possibly some of them may profit by the example.” “Señor,” replied the Mexican, “how oau I express my thanks for the honor you have been pleased to do me? and Señorita Gonzales, ehe will be grateful ful to you also. Would it be too much to ask of you one of the pictures?” “Most certainly not,” said the Saneyore, blandly; “you shall have as many of them as you like with my compliments to the Señorita or, I will havd some printed for myself and givy you the plate bo that you may have as many printed sb you please at any time, provided,” he added, “that it is a good one.” “O, I would like to have it anyway,” said the gentleman, even if it is not per fect; here is my Street address and if you will honor me with a call at any time my house and all I have are yours.” With a friendly handshake and a po lite adiós they went their separate ways.

Townsend told a T ribune re. porter, a few days ago, that, so far, he has a list of 41 mines which contain ore that will pay well to treat if a matting furnace is established in Dillon. All are in a radius of 30 miles of Dillon. On the 23rd George R. Metlen filed for reoord the Ninteenth Century and the Twentieth Century ¡placer olaims. , Each contains twenty aores and they are sit uated on White’s bar, on Grasshopper creek. W. V. Butler, of tbe firm of Townsend & Butler, was downjrom Argenta on an important mining deal Saturday. A. Bessette of Baunaok, who is largely interested in the Blue Wing district, was □ town Monday inquiring as to thepro- gross of the smelter prbjeot. Thos. Judgedeft Saturday tor a visit to the Elkhorn district. When he re turns he will bring a number of samples of ore from bis numerous mining olaims in that section. Owen Smith is developing a most en- oouraging tapper prospect iu the new Blaoktail district, 8 miles from Dillon The ore is a very desirable one for mat ting purposes. C. B . Townsend reports having numer ous inquiries of late for, leasable proper ties in Beaverhead connty. John W. Underwood, who is largely in terested in the copper district n 0 n Stone oreek, was in town Monday and reports that be expects, within tbe next thirty- feet to encounter a big vein of copper ore for whioh be has been running for some few years past. It is reported that Dune Wadams, i^ho is the owner of a promising prospect on Miser creek in the Big Hole basin, made a sale of the property to Bntte parties some few days ago. . Thos. Butterwood et al of Salt Lake City, on the 22od filed for recof-d the fol lowing placer olaims situated in the Big Hole basin: Highland, 60 acres; .Arling ton, 160 aores, and the Luoky Boy, 80 acres.. Messrs. Whittaker, Forrester and Sul livan are working on the old Legal Ten der mine in the Argenta district. At one time this mine produced the richest ore ever found in the camp, some of it being shipped to Swansea,Wales, for treatment. The present proprietors are prospecting the ground in the hope of finding a con tinuation of the ore chute which made the property famous. For some little time past, Sheriff Pyle aud Tom and Pat Flynn have been work ing on a prospect in Jake’s oanyon, Blaoktail district, driving a tunnel to tap the lead. The olaim is known as the Miohael Deavitt, and is said to be an enormous one. When the tuDnel had gtfined a length of 68 feet the lead was out. That was last Sunday and it is now said that the hoys are taking out shipping ore and piling it on the dump. It is said to be one of the bcBt copper pros pects ever found in the oounty. John Chandler filed for reoord the Bald Mountain placer of 20 aores, 'during the week. ) — t — \% I | The flavor of the OVER- I LA N D combines the pleas- t ant features of American | Bourbon and Canadian * Malt Whiskies.
