The vote for Delegate to Congress In Beaverhead County was 1,168—precisely the number of vote's that were cast at the county seat election. The output of the Alta Montana Works at Wicke», for the past two months, has been about $70,000 in base bullion, which is Being shipped from Dillon. The Shick Brothers are fitting up the building lately occupied by L. C. Fyhrie & Co., on Montana street, for a billiard hall and saloon, and will open up next week. Next Thursday is Thanksgiving. Everv poor devil In this prosperous county is enti- tled to a good dinner on that day If he nev- er had one any other time during the year. Through the courtes of County Clerk, elect Mr. Phil D. McGough the tribune was furnished with a copy of the official abstract of the votes cast in the county at the late election. Of the Republican candidates Robert T. Wing, for Probate Judge, received the highest vote, 789. Of the Democratic can- didate O. W. w . Rote, for Commissioner, received the highest vote, 641. Go and see the fine display of picture« at the Art Uallerv. Fine oil paintings go for one dollar eacli. Now is the time to fill your parlors with fine pictures. The Art Gallery will be here but a few daye. Glendale get« both County Commission- ers—Mr. Rote for one term and Mr. John Well« for the other term. Dillon gets all three of the members of the Legislative Assembly—B. F. White in the Council, and Dr. Clutter and W. T. Jacobs, in the House. Treasurer Shineberger Is kept tolerably busy receiving taxes. On the close of bu- siness on next Thursday, November 30th, the unpaid taxes become delinquent. To accommodate the tax-payers the Treasur- er’s office will be opened early and close late each day until that date. The T risunr job department is turning out an unusual amount of job printing in an excellent style of the art preservative of arts. Lately large addition« of jobbing material ana «lock have been received at this office, end we are now better prepared than heretofore to turn out job work. The official board of canvassers of Bea verhead County, consisting of Chairman Turner o f the Board of Commissioners, Treasurer Shlneberaer and another county officer met at the Court House last Satur- day and canvassed the votes of the county. The result will be found in tabular form In to-day's paper. The people of this portion of Uncle Sam’s domain are Informed that It will coat three cent* lor one of the new postal money-or dera for a sum lest than $5, and the ser- vice la so extended as to raise the limit of orders from $50 to $100. Persons will not be required to fill out a blank, but will re- ceive an order payable to the bearer at any desired money-order office. Vennor, the weather sharp, predicts for the does of November: "There is likely to be a cold wave of considerable Intensity over the western and northwestern sections of both Canada and the United States to- wards the close of the month nr entry of December." As this section Is Included in the prediction, ere may look for a cold snap provided Vennor guesses rightly. The new Board of County Commission- ers trill give to the Northern part of the county control of the board. It would, per- haps, nave been better and more satisfactory If the Bannack-Horte Prairie-Red Rock section had secured one Commissioner, for in the administration of county affairs each division of the county should have a rep- resentative on the Board of County Com- missioners. The Daily Labor Union is the name of a new dally newspaper that will be issued at Butte City next week. It is to be a morn- ing paper, and will be independent in poli- tics. Geo. W. Carlton is to be manager. It it to be published by a stock company, and it it understood that the new paper will receive the hearty support of the Miners’ Union of the Butte district Treasurer Shineberger is a modest man but he it not bashful or retiring. After dunning all the rich people in Beaverhead County for their taxes, he hits the citizens of the'Dillon School District a special lick and with postal cards he tells each proper- ty owner what it due from him to make up that $t,ooo special school tax voted by this district in August last. Walts up and pay because it canT be avoided. There has not been auch a grand display in the West for nine years past of the Au- rora Borealis, or northern lights, as that witnessed on two evenings in the fore part of this week. The whole Northern sky was lit up with constantly changing streaks of crimson light This fine display in the North was followed by a reported electric storm which prevailed over a greater por- tion of the country. The T ribune would like to receive j newsy items and correspondence from ev- ' ery town, mining camp and school district ■ in Beaverhead County. We, want every item of local or general interest that hap- pens in the county. Our friends through- out the county are respectfully requested to furnish Hems and correspondence that will prove readable and of local inter- est. Favors in this line will be duly appre- ciated. Prof. Willio, the world renowned ma- gician, ventriloquist, etc., arrived in town by yesterday’s train. He is very highly recommended by the press as one of the best performers that has ever been in the Territory. The Professor will give enter- tainments at School Hall on next Monday and Tuesday evenings, and promises good exhibitions to all who mav attend. Re- nerved seals may be obtained by applying at the Postoffice. Th" initial number of the Missoula Coun- ty Times has reached this office. The pa- per, an eight column sheet, is published at Missoula by Harrison Spaulding. It is Republican in politics, is well gotten up and is spicy and newsy, and starts with a libérai showing of sustaining advertising patronage. A lire newspaper in Missoula will do much toward building up thut town which is just new experiencing a remarka- bly healthy building boom. Skating among people of Northern civi- lized countries is an accomplishment heart- ily recommended. It is a graceful.invigora- ting exercise, and besides being an enjoya- ble amusement it is conceded to be a moat healthy exercise. Many towns are provided with skating rinks, but the necessity of a rink at Dillon is not felt as the sloughs ent- tving into the Beaverhead afford extensive ice fields where skaters can pleasantly en- joy them«elves. The ice is reported to be in tolerably smooth condition. The exact dimensions of Eliel's new clothing emporium have been ascertained tn be twenty-five feet in width by one hun- dred feet in'length. In giving publicity to this fact the T ribuns r -porter did not bor- row from Peter to pay Paul. The further fact that the new store room is daily crowd- ed with customers does not detract any- thing from statements made in a recent is- sue of this journal. People will go where everything animate and inanimate is so in- viting—and that’s why the throng visits Eliel's emporium. The third edition of Cnpp’t Settler’s (lutde, a popular exposition of our public land system, is before us. It is edited by Henry N. Cupp, of Washington, D. C., the well known author. Its price is onlf 25 cents in paper and 75 cents in cloth 114 pages. The chapter on surveys is il- lustrated, and shows how to tell township and section corners, etc. The chapters on homesteads, pre-emptions and timber cul- ture contain the latest rulings and instruc- tions. Every settler and land man should have a copy of this valuable little book. The Butte Miner it enjoying the luxury of a $10,000 libel suit. The paper it sued by Justice O'Meara, of Butte, for that sum. he Miner, in one of its sardonic moods, mentioned a transaction In O'Meara’s court in indifferent terms, for which the injured Justice wants satisfaction in bank notes or coin. The sum of $to,cxx> Is a heap of money and it is doubtful if a jury of twelve men would give $10.000 for the best Jus- tice of the Peace In Montana. However, the Miner is in for a racket in court, and at the blood of the O'Mearas Is hot there is a possible chance that damages, more or less, may be awarded to the gentleman from the Emerald Isle. An examination of the vote of Beaver- head County will show that there was con- siderable sectional fceHng manifested in voting for the candidates. Votes were cast for men, and with the exception of Dele- gate to Congress, partv lines were not firm- ly drawn. In the upper precincts of Trap- per Gulch the "naturalisation racket” was divided somewhat but the Republicans got the best of the racket, except between two candidates It was about a stand off, or a lit- tle more so on one side. When a registry taw for the Territory is adopted a remedy will be provided that will do away with the tricks practiced throughout Montana at the elections held heretofore. While the new stores are having a spe- cial boom, the old establishments are doing a lively trade. Sweet & Baldwin's It a busy place—Poindexter makes a rattling showing—and Kirkpatrick’s is not a point behind the other houses. Dart into Dart’s and a splendid stock will meet your dis- criminating gaie. At Butts & Drake’s furniture store the exhibition of articles is way up. Evidences of brisk trade are no- ticeable at all the stores and shops in town. The trade of Dillon is extending Into a wider range every month, which Is conclu- sive proof that our merchantsand business men are selling at figures that cannot be obtained in other lest favored towns. Bishop Brewer's sermon on last Sunday evening on the "Observance of Sunday'* at the Episcopal Church was attentively listened to by a large congregation. The Bishop did not throw the entire blame on merchants and shop-keepers for disregard- ing the Lord’s day and keeping open placet for the purpose o f selling merchandise. On the people rested the blame, for, as the Bishop very pointedly remarked. If the people did not make a practice of going to the stores to buy on Sundays the store- keepers from a lack of customers would be competed to shut up their shop* on Sun- days. Hence, In order to bring about a proper observance of Sunday the people must quit trading and doing business on the good day._____________ Good Advise.

The shipments of wool from Beaverhead County this year amounted in the aggre- gate to four hundred and twenty thousand pounds. The yearly shipments of wool from this county will be large, and it ia hie to anticipate that wool-raising will In- crease in importance in Southwestern Mon- tana rather than diminish. This being the case the quettkm naturally arlae» why we should not manufacture this raw woof Into fabrics Instead of tending it to a distant market to be turned Into vrooten gooduknd then sent back to us. Dillon could be easily made a central point for establishing a woolen factory of a sufficient capacity to manufacture all the wool raised In this sec- tion of Montfitia. With a canal of proper dimensions the tent of thousand# of Inches of water flowing in the Beaverhead could be utilized for motive power to drive an Im- mense amount ol machinery. It eaay to see how water power can be acquired at no considerable cost. With a magnificent 3 ualitv of wool, which could be purchased irectlv from our extensive wool-grower», and unloaded at the doors of a factory at no cost for freight, Dillon presents an opening for a woolen manufactory not surpassed by anv other place in the Territory. A facto- rr once In operation here would And a large and Increasing local and surrounding market to supply with woolens. There is a wide scope of country tributary to Dillon and any and all surplus goods would And a market In preference to Eastern shoddy. The enterprise of a woolen manufactory at Dillon is one deserving of earnest and time- ly consideration. THK LITERARY SOCIETY.

Orr, of Poindexter & Orr, our ex- tensive stock-raisers on the Blacktaii, has returned from Fort Calgurry, in the British Northwest Possessions, where he delivered to the O-chrane Ranch Company a band of cattle numbering four thousand a three hundred head. The drive from Bea- verhead County to within a few miles of the Cochrane Knm h was easy and success- fully accomplished. Meeting a severe snow »tor n when within twelve miles of tile end of the drive a del.iv of several days occur- red, during which time it required diligent care to keep the band from stampeding and the experiences of those days of watching were anything but pleasant. During the drive, which was a long one, probably six hundred miles, only a comparatively few head of cattle were lost, but a number of horses taken along developed sore feet and some of them hadtobeleft on the wayside, and a few died. The drive, considering its length, was a success and the losses sus- tained were moderately light. THANKHGIVING CLUB DANCE. The members of the Dillon Dancing Club, in addition to reciting prayers and eating turkeys and chickens, propose to wind up Thanksgiving with a grand Club dance on the evening of that day.

General Manager Knlppenberg, of the Hecla Consolidated Mining Company, of Glendale, has decided one oi the most im- portant questions, not only for the Hecla Company but for Montana Territory, that has troubled everv mining man owning or holding low grade ores. Every mining camp or low grade quartz district In our Territory indirectly owes that gentleman a debt of gratitude for deciding for them so Important a question as the successful con- centration or ores of an inferior grade. About eighteen months ago Mr. Knippen- berg toox charge of the Immense Hecla property, when he found deposited in all of mines of the Trapper district large bodies of second-class ores, assaying from seven to fifteen per cent in lead and running from twenty to fifty ounces In silver to the ton, How to make this worthless wealth availa- ble has been his constant study. During the first year of his management the con- dition of the mine« and company made it utterly out of the question to make a great improvement, but having redeemed the property and placed Iton a dividend-paying basis, the manager resolved that during the second year the work should be accom- plished. During the present year there has been expended in the erection of the Greenwood Concentrator over $50,000. On November 15th the large concentra tor at Greenwood waa put in operation,run- ning day and night, and the results were entirely satisfactory. The product from the jigs was brought up to fifty-four per cent in lead and one hundred and seventeen ounces In silver to the ton ; the table prod- uct was brought up to fifty per cent in lead and fifty-four ounces in silver; the al lea was brought down as low at eleven per cent in much of the product. The loss In silver in the tailings will be materially re- duced. The first few days run of the con- centrator was not an average test as Supt. Parfet furnished it witli Cleve and Franklin ores which are the hardest and most diffi cult ores owned by the Hecla Co. to con centrate, as they only run seven per cent in lead. The Fort Scott Machine and Foundry Co. furnished the beautiful machinery for the concentrator, which was designed by Prof. Fred Stivolinska The Professor is a man of large experiei In concentrating ; machinery and he has been at Greenwood for over one month. FYHRIE A CO.’S NEW LISHMENT. L. C. Fvhrle & Co. have moved into their new Wick store room on the corner of Montana and Center streets, where they are exhibiting an extraordinary stock to great advantage. The new room is, with out exception, the most commodious and well-arranged place lor thepurpost sof car- rying on a general merchandising business in Southern Montana, having a ground flooruge of twenty five feet in width by one hundred feet in length, with lofty ceil, ing. The location is in the central and business part of Dillon—in fact, it is in the center of the locality of trade. The new store room, which is special Iv adapted for general mercantile purposes, is of massive strength and solidity, and when the iron doors and windo-v shutters are put on it will be fire-proof The interior is i.nished off neatly with attractive counters and shelves, l’he new establishment commands the im mediate attention of strangers and visitors, and it is the admiration and pride of Dil- ionites. This house, now noted for its fine building, is equally well known for the immense miscellaneous stock of goods car- ried, and the excellent quality of goods of- fered for sale at reasonable prices, it is useless to attempt an enumeration of the go ids in stock, for everything in line and season is carried. With a wide-awake man- ager, a dignified book-keeper, and a full force of active and obliging clerks and salestn.-n, the house of L. C. Fyhrie & Co. will continue to draw a liberal patronage from the people of Southwestern Montana. Even so mote it be. PBECINCT OFFICERS ELECTED.

The new Board of County Commissioners trill give to the Northern part of the county control of the board.

Skating among people of Northern civilized countries is an accomplishment heartily recommended. It is a graceful.invigorating exercise, and besides being an enjoyable amusement it is conceded to be a moat healthy exercise. Many towns are provided with skating rinks, but the necessity of a rink at Dillon is not felt as the sloughs ent- tving into the Beaverhead afford extensive ice fields where skaters can pleasantly enjoy them«elves. The ice is reported to be in tolerably smooth condition.
The exact dimensions of Eliel's new clothing emporium have been ascertained tn be twenty-five feet in width by one hundred feet in'length. In giving publicity to this fact the T r ib u n s r -porter did not borrow from Peter to pay Paul.

People will go where everything animate and inanimate is so inviting—and that’s why the throng visits Eliel's emporium.
The third edition of Cnpp’t Settler’s (lutde, a popular exposition of our public land system, is before us. It is edited by Henry N. Cupp, of Washington, D. C., the well known author.

The chapter on surveys is illustrated, and shows how to tell township and section corners, etc. The chapters on homesteads, pre-emptions and timber culture contain the latest rulings and instructions. Every settler and land man should have a copy of this valuable little book.
The Butte Miner it enjoying the luxury of a $10,000 libel suit. The paper it sued by Justice O'Meara, of Butte, for that sum.
he Miner, in one of its sardonic moods, mentioned a transaction In O'Meara’s court in indifferent terms, for which the injured Justice wants satisfaction in bank notes or coin. The sum of $to,cxx> Is a heap of money and it is doubtful if a jury of twelve men would give $10.000 for the best Justice of the Peace In Montana. However, the Miner is in for a racket in court, and a t the blood of the O'Mearas Is hot there is a possible chance that damages, more or less, may be awarded to the gentleman from the Emerald Isle.
An examination of the vote of Beaverhead County will show that there was considerable sectional fceHng manifested in voting for the candidates. Votes were cast for men, and with the exception of Delegate to Congress, partv lines were not firmly drawn. In the upper precincts of Trap- per Gulch the "naturalisation racket” was divided somewhat but the Republicans got the best of the racket, except between two candidates It was about a stand off, or a little more so on one side. When a registry taw for the Territory is adopted a remedy will be provided that will do away with the tricks practiced throughout Montana at the elections held heretofore.
While the new stores are having a special boom, the old establishments are doing a lively trade. Sweet & Baldwin's It a busy place—Poindexter makes a rattling showing—and Kirkpatrick’s is not a point behind the other houses. Dart into Dart’s and a splendid stock will meet your discriminating gaie. At Butts & Drake’s furniture store the exhibition of articles is way up. Evidences of brisk trade are noticeable at all the stores and shops in town. The trade of Dillon is extending Into a wider range every month, which Is conclusive proof that our merchantsand business men are selling at figures that cannot be obtained in other lest favored towns.
Bishop Brewer's sermon on last Sunday evening on the "Observance of Sunday'* at the Episcopal Church was attentively listened to by a large congregation. The Bishop did not throw the entire blame on merchants and shop-keepers for disregarding the Lord’s day and keeping open placet for the purpose of selling merchandise. On the people rested the blame, for, as the Bishop very pointedly remarked. If the people did not make a practice of going to the stores to buy on Sundays the storekeepers from a lack of customers would be competed to shut up their shop* on Sundays. Hence, In order to bring about a proper observance of Sunday the people must quit trading and doing business on the good day._____________

The shipments of wool from Beaverhead County this year amounted in the aggregate to four hundred and twenty thousand pounds. The yearly shipments of wool from this county will be large, and it ia hie to anticipate that wool-raising will Increase in importance in Southwestern Montana rather than diminish. This being the case the quettkm naturally arlae» why we should not manufacture this raw woof Into fabrics Instead of tending it to a distant market to be turned Into vrooten gooduknd then sent back to us. Dillon could be easily made a central point for establishing a woolen factory of a sufficient capacity to manufacture all the wool raised In this section of Montfitia. With a canal of proper dimensions the tent of thousand# of Inches of water flowing in the Beaverhead could be utilized for motive power to drive an Immense amount ol machinery. It eaay to see how water power can be acquired at no considerable cost. With a magnificent
3ualitv of wool, which could be purchased irectlv from our extensive wool-grower»,
and unloaded at the doors of a factory at no cost for freight, Dillon presents an opening for a woolen manufactory not surpassed by anv other place in the Territory. A facto- r r once In operation here would And a large and Increasing local and surrounding market to supply with woolens. There is a wide scope of country tributary to Dillon and any and all surplus goods would And a market In preference to Eastern shoddy.

A SUCCESSFUL CA TTLE D R IV E .
Wm. Orr, of Poindexter & Orr, our extensive stock-raisers on the Blacktaii, has returned from Fort Calgurry, in the British Northwest Possessions, where he delivered to the O-chrane Ranch Company a band of cattle numbering four thousand a three hundred head. The drive from Beaverhead County to within a few miles of the Cochrane Knm h was easy and successfully accomplished. Meeting a severe snow »tor n when w ithin twelve miles of tile end of the drive a del.iv of several days occurred, during which time it required diligent care to keep the band from stampeding and the experiences of those days of watching were anything but pleasant. During the drive, which was a long one, probably six hundred miles, only a comparatively few head of cattle were lost, but a number of horses taken along developed sore feet and some of them hadtobeleft on the wayside, and a few died. The drive, considering its length, was a success and the losses sustained were moderately light.

General Manager Knlppenberg, of the Hecla Consolidated Mining Company, of Glendale, has decided one oi the most important questions, not only for the Hecla Company but for Montana Territory, that has troubled everv mining man owning or holding low grade ores. Every mining camp or low grade quartz district In our Territory indirectly owes that gentleman a debt of gratitude for deciding for them so Important a question as the successful concentration or ores of an inferior grade. About eighteen months ago Mr. Knippen- berg toox charge of the Immense Hecla property, when he found deposited in all of mines of the Trapper district large bodies of second-class ores, assaying from seven to fifteen per cent in lead and running from twenty to fifty ounces In silver to the ton, How to make this worthless wealth available has been his constant study. During the first year of his management the condition o f the mine« and company made it utterly out of the question to make a great improvement, but having redeemed the property and placed Iton a dividend-paying basis, the manager resolved that during the second year the work should be accomplished. During the present year there has been expended in the erection of the Greenwood Concentrator over $50,000.
On November 15th the large concentra tor at Greenwood waa put in operation,running day and night, and the results were entirely satisfactory. The product from the jigs was brought up to fifty-four per cent in lead and one hundred and seventeen ounces In silver to the ton ; the table product was brought up to fifty per cent in lead and fifty-four ounces in silver; the al lea was brought down as low at eleven per cent in much of the product. The loss In silver in the tailings will be materially reduced. The first few days run of the concentrator was not an average test as Supt. Parfet furnished it witli Cleve and Franklin ores which are the hardest and most diffi cult ores owned by the Hecla Co. to con centrate, as they only run seven per cent in lead.
The Fort Scott Machine and Foundry Co. furnished the beautiful machinery for the concentrator, which was designed by Prof. Fred Stivolinska The Professor is a man of large experiei In concentrating ; machinery and he has been at Greenwood for over one month.
