PEDDLING A SPEECH AMONG NEWSPAPERS mont Roll and Tax K te— Flelds of Montana-.A Gold- Tipped Meteor—Summary of Northwest News. Wyomin A vombshell exploded in commercial circles in Salt Lake City last week, laying bare a blackmailing conspiracy and betrayal of the interests of the Chamver of Commerce. Karly last summer tho tiransportation bureau of the Chamber of Coramerco insti- tuted suit against the railroads, alleging un- lawfu! discrimination in freight rates against Salt Lake City and the tervitory. The hear- 1ng on the charges preferred was to be had before the Interstute Commerce comraission, Septombor 5. Weeks bofore that time me:n- bers of the chamber bocame suspioious that their case was not in reliable huuds, and wharges of botrayal of the people’s interests were muttered, but the gwity ones could not then be determined. Owing to this state of afiairs shippers and the Chamber of Comn- mores united in a request to the lnterstate Commerce commission for a sixty-day nost- ponement of the hearing, which was granted. Tho cxpose published by the Salt Lake Tribune proves that tho suspicions and charges of the chamber were well founded, and that an utterupt was made to sell to the Union Pacitic oflicials the chamber’s mde of the caso and the gist of the testimony to be produced at the hearing for $2,600. On the 26th of July one E. E. Bdwards opened negotiations with 8. W. mecles, gen- eral freight agent of the Union Pacilic at Salt Lake City. Edwards stated that he was on intimate terms with the secretary of the Chamuer of Commerco and the members, and had procured possession of documents which would be invaluable to the railroad company 1n preparing its dofense. Further- more ho boldly stated ho had secured & pass key to the office of the secretary and all dee- uments in e ofico were accessible to him. ed the company to buy the docu- he wanted nieans to contine his t life of luxury and leisure.” . Eccles decided to find out whom the blackmailer was, and declined to consider the proposition unless Edwards called in verson. The correspondence continued in this line for some weeks, Edwaras re- fusing to veveal himself. On August 3 Septume W. Sears, son of the seoratary of the chumber, appeared on the scene as a pre- tended go-between, the mysterious Edwards taving, uerording to Sears, gone north for bis health, Sears ana Eccles bad frequent meetings and excbanged many lotters, Edwards contributing an occasional letter dated Butto or Pocatello, which Sears promntiy conveyed to Mr. Eccles, mean- while urging that the deal with Edwards be closed. No money was paid however. Wiilo the negotiations wera under way, Union Pacific detectives were put on the track of the elusive Edwards, and in add tion all that transpired between Eccles and young Sears was taken down by stenographers hldden from view. he ~ detectives soon discovered that 5. E. Edwards was none other than S. W. Sears, jr. The latter 1ot only secured all the mail addressed to his alias, but the original drafts of Edwards’ letters, supposed to have been written from distant towns, were found in the wastepasket in the office of tho secretary of the Chamber of Com- merce, 3 The publication of the correspondence crcated a sensation in Salt Lake City. A hasty investization was made by the execu- . tive commftteo of the Chamber of Commerce, resulting in tne acquittal of Secretary Sears of blame and plneing the responsibility on his son, who confessed his culpability. That'Sears, Jr., is on the make Is not sur- prising. Sears pere is not averse to rakiog in the festive dollar whenever the opportunity offers. In a typewritten letter to Tnr Ber under date of July 7 and signed “S. W, Sears, secretary,” he informed this oftice that the case of the shippers of Snlt Lake against the Union tacific was *‘the most im- ortant ever brought before the Interstato Jommerce commission.” His object in writ- ing, lie states, “is to see if you desire a copy of my opening speech to be made before the commission”—one of the precious docu- ir., sought to sell to With becoming modesty y Sears lauds *‘my opening speech,” declaring it covers the wholorange of freight tarifls, the cost of movement of trains, “shows (quoting Sears) that promineut rail- youd officials, one now a United States sena- tor, committed perjury by filing with the Interior department at Washington false affidavits,” and “‘how for the last twenty years the ofiicluls have systematically plun- dered the roads and the public,” ete. *‘What induced me to write to you direct,” says Secrotary Sears, “‘was an " application from a newspaper man that [ furnish him a copy of this speech and allow bim to sell it to one paper in every city in the United States, apon which condition he would pay me one- half of the net proceeds. 1 prefer, however, that our Chamber of Commerce shoula reap all tho venefit, as » great deal of money has been expended in prosecuting this case. One + paper on the Pacitic coast has signified its willingness 1o pay for an exclusive copy, and of courso only oue paper in each city will be furnished with & copy, other papers getting through the Associated Press a brief outline, but the cost of telegraphing the full text would be very great, as there are over 6,000 words.” t18 sad to reflect what a sensational treat the reading public lost by the delay in the delivery of that “opening specch.” Just how much the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce lost by the collapse of tho sale of an *ox- clusive scoop” is a problem the members may wrestle with at their leisure. Give Th ves Away. E. W. Howe of the Atcbison (Kav.) Globe paints in the September Forum a picture of the bond voting mania in these words: *It is an old truth, but only old men seem to understand the particular importance of honesty, simplicity, and order. Youn like young men, are constantly trying est pity; 1 think 1% is that young men and young towns do Dot accept the lessons of their elders without the punishment of experienco, Most westorn country towns are euiity of all sorts of ms- takes, because few of them have reached years of discrotion, Howevor wise a man nay be In his individual capacity, and how- over wise he may have been as a resident of an olaer community, as a citizen of a new town he votes bords with the recklessness that characterizes yourg mun in giving aotes, forgettiug that payday will inevitaoly roll around and that they will probably not be prepared to ¢ Many of the great for- tunes in the t were gifts from communi- ties In the west. The people conspire for months to get control of their valuables n order thatthey may give them away. If there Is a valuable franchise in a western country town the people usually manage to give it away, the recipients being men who bave probably been victims themselves in J0mo new comimunity, " A Gold-Tipped Meteor, It 18 generally conceded that forvariety of aatural resources Idaho is a good second to Moutana. To her vast uatural wealth the stato adds, according o loval cbroniclers, meteors burnisbed with gold. A Boise cor respondent writes that on the night of Au- gust 20 the upper end of the Bruueau valloy, Owynee county, was made lLght as asy by the hery glow of alarge meteor that shot earibwurd out of the southwestern heavens. Jack Ronald, who witnessed the flight of tho aerolite, suld 1t appeared ‘as large usun ordinary box car, and that ss it slantea downward it emitted ulteruately & deep light. He saw tho meleor pass down bebind the durk outline of & bigh kil and a few seconds luter be heard a shorp and resonant explosion, Within the next few momeuts Rovald saw six smaller aerolites shoot through space, but he could not el whether apy of them struck the earth.

On Tuesday he, 100, commenced a search for tha | fiery visitor, ana_ after o fow hours his search was rowarded by tho discovery of meteorio stone, welghing probabiy 400 pounds, which had struck a sandbank on the margin of the creck, and had_ then recochotted ninety feet to a blufl of clay, where it had_loiged. ~Adam after considerable effort, chipped off & pie of the stone, It has the appearance of half Smelted iron ore, but Adnms deciares that an ussayer has assured bim that tho stone i richin gold. Adams, who 18 a reputable man, says ho is sure he bas foand the aeroito that'was seen by Honald and himself. He declares that ho was not over 1,000 yards dis- tant from the meteor when it struck the earth, and that he felt the heat and electric atmosphere which surrounded the incandes- cont bolt.

Nine of these beds range in thickness from two feot to thirteen feet, aggregaticg forty- eight feet of workable coal he nine beds. ‘The urea covered by these coal beds is not fully known, but these ocoal-bearing rocks cover a large area in this valley, and some of the conl beas are known to extend over some 100 square miles, aud the probabilities are that they extend over & much larger area. There is a considerable area of coal two and one-half miles north of the city of Missoula, on which considerable development work has been done and extensive leads of coal and fire clay have been opened. (oal beds are also found in the Bitter Root valley below Stevensville, and others still in the footaills on the east side of the valley. There is a coal bed high up in the main range of the Rocky mountains, just st the west end of the Mullan tuanel, and nearly as hizn as the tununel itself. The Rocky Fork coal fleld probably con- tairs more workable coal than any other equal area of coal beds in this or any of the aujolning states. Though this coal fleld has not peen fully exploted, it i3 known to ex- tend to the mountains two miles west of Red Lodgo to the Valley of Clark's Fork east fully sixteen miles and five miles north and south, This area contains seventeen beds of coal on Rocky Fork.dn sections 22, 27 and 34, of township 7, south and 20 east, The coal beds of Park county are numer- ous, extensive and carry the best qualities of coking and dry coals. Some of these mines, as the Cokedule, the Horr, Bear Creek and Rocky Fork have been worked for years, and the coke and coals they produce find a roady sale In reduction works, on railroads and in city markots. Still south and east of these on Bear creek and about six miles east-southeast of Red Lodge and in the same coal tield are five suc- cessive beds of coal. The lowest is five feet thick and overtaid by 200 feet of sandstonos and shales. Next above is a bed of coal four feet thick and above it forty feet of sand- stona. On this sandstone is & conl bed nine feet thick, overlaid by 200 feet of sandstones, shales and clays. On these rest about six feet of coal, naving about 150 feet of sand- stone and shales. On these shales rest a fifth bed of coal four feet thick. pul Saloon. After weeks ot weary cogitation and anx- fous deliberation, the city dads of Sioux Falls, S. D., squelched the much-talked-af municipal saloon, The scheme originated in the exhaustive think tank of the local inter- nal revenue colloctor, who sought to squelch thejolnts as well as the perambulating ped- dlers of probibition booze. Desdemona he went for the dangers envelop- ing thecity. His coplous weeps moistened fertile soll and brought forth a project calcu- lated. if put in practice, to annihilate the evil and replenish the munioipal treasury. But the city fathers, while viewing the project with friendly oyes, feared doubtiess vhat a municipal saloon on tap during a campaign would provoke too much irrigation d abnorb the perquisities of oftice. So, having laid the project in the graye, they gave the countersikn and the soda fountain fizzed on tho side. Californis Fruit Growing. It is doubtful if there is in any part of the world land which yields with the productive- ness of that devoted to fruit oulture in Cali- fornia, says the American Grocer. Itisa 1ana of prodigious results, and when one con- siders the returns to the orchardist, heis puzzied to kuow what value to place upon land. Iu the Santa Clara valley one grower re- ceived for the product of three acres of cher- ries u net profit of §3,000. From eighty-four trees (considerrbly less than one acre) of Queen Anne cherries the grower uelled 1,000 ‘Tue fruit on av eighty-acre prune orchard pear Vigalia sold for $600 per acre.

A big strike of good ore was oncountered on the 500 level of the Moulton in Butte. The ore already taken out runs about thirty ounces and the indications are that there is plenty of it. As equalized and corrected, the total as- sessment of Lewis and Clarke county, in- cluding Helena, is §24,182,240. The tax levy 1s 81¢ miils, which will bring in a revenue to the county for this year of $205,504.04. It is announced that arrangements have been made by which the entire output of the Anaconan copper mines is to be refined by the electrolytic process at the works of the Baltimore Eleotric company, instead of send- ing 1t to Europe as heretofore. The Bozeman Land and Loan company, capital $500,000, and the Lima Reservoir & Irrigating company, capital $100,000, have filed articles of incorporation. The latter combuny proposes to utilize the waters of Red Rock lake in Madison county. A promising strike is revorted in the Rec- ompense mine, two miles north of the Bur- lingame mine, Upper Basin distriot. The owners are down only sixteen feet, but have ore running from $18 to $28 In gold and with plenty of lead, while tho vein is twenty-tive feet across.
