W.tsmIINTON, June 6. 1885.
Ini these days of party strife and
';olitieal discussion. the work of intel
ligent charity gow-s forward. A dis
I'li'-ish'dlbody, reprenting' thirtv
stite-, is now holding a confereoce in
this city. in the interest of charities
and p;enal reform. This congress of
philnthrou isis is composed of about
five hundred dlt-e1eates, selected by
the gi- werinors of the various states,
many of the delegates being repro:
<::(it vat s t11 chlaritahI ' and penal in

The Ib)ect of this gath-ril g. enlisting
as it do.': the tao t proatinent rIen

'he working force of the Pension

makes the largest show of economy,
in the miangenmnt of his Depart
nient. He looked into the matter of
mail routes. and drenling that there
were nanecessary expenditures and
p seor srvice i made new contracts by
which over 1' 1t.000 have been saved
in the annual expenditures of this
division alone. He then awarded a
c >ntrlact for e'vI'iIpe.O for department
al pnrpes. and for the )Ise of post
masters in sending in their returns,
which saves over -12.O010 a year. His
new p.)stal card contract saves over
<7.000 a year. and by adouting steum

Since the advent of thenewregime,
in Washington alone several hundred

!'oar or five hundred guagers and
store 1: o'pers have been eliminated
in sev ral parts of the country, who
usedl up taxI's but were not needed.
rhe entire so-called "fraud roll" has

ferums have teen make in the custom
houses, which will save a million or
two of money per year.
President Cleveland has just given
not l'. ab evl L'nc-ce that no relatives
niel apply. Among the candidates
for tile poition of collector of an
Ohio district filled yesterday by him,
was a man who, unfortunately, bore
the name of Cleveland. His dl gibil
ity for the place was uuquestioned.
but the President did not want the
charge of "nepotism" raised, and con
f-equently refused the application.
This disappointed applica'it. it ;s
said, is a nephew of the President,
an 1 the nin who received the ap
pointment was so pleased with the
President's action that he openly de
clared that he would make the unfor
tunate relative his first deputy if he
would accept the place.

An enterprise like this whocrr commjser el,
is h::!f compl t d.
An outfit arrived here this week with a
complete boring plant, and are engaged
at work of some kind just south of town.
What object they have in view, no one
has vet been able to discover. M1um
seems to be the word. Only this much
have we been able to find out: the plant
has been sent here by an et~tern com
pany. It is a prospecting ria'dng of Some
sort, whether for coal or for oil, we are
unable to sty. The work is in charge of
a superintendent. sent by the company
from the east. Who the company is and
Schat their object, is equally as great a
mystery. In our next issue we hope to
he aile to give soinething more reliable.
Reports from Sun River are to the ef
feet that that village has suffered from the
late freshet. The water commenced rising
Friday night and the rAin Saturday, swe'l
ed the flood, and the river overflowed its
banks, deluging the town in from three
to four feet of water. The people were
seemingly prepared and no great amount
of damuage was done. The bridges atross
the small streams and coulees from lien
ton to the Dearborn are reported to have
been washed away, and only one coach
has arrived from IHelena since Friday,and
one from Benton. The etach from here
bound to Sun River last Saturday was ot'
liged to take to the benches after crossing
the Muddy bridge, the water being too
deep in the road for safety.
Thie annual .Rune rise of the Missouri
this year has eclipsed anything since '75.
The heavy rains of the past ten days, to
gether with the snow in the muounttins
which has rapidly melted, has swelled the
current bank full, anit in many places it
hits overltowed. Some little damage was
done here. The flume of the wiing dam
was loosened, and would have been hi
yond recovery but for 0. C. Mortson, who
happened to dis over it before it had got
into the current. It is now safely an
chored about two hundred feet from its
former position. Luckily it sitst:iined no
datnage, but will require no little trouble
to again place it in position. Ira Myers
& ('o. lost several hundred feet of wood
logs which broke from their fastenings at
the cotmpaty's mill.
