Mr.. BLAlNE's eff ort to pose as a friend OF
Ireland is promptly laughed at by the
Irish american in an editorial entitled
trimmer Blaine" The article ia mainly
devoted to describing Mr.. Blaine's futile
efforts to deny the truth OF the stenograph-
er's report OF his Portland speech. But in
the course Of the story the editor says that
the meeting was organized because Mr..
Blaine's political managers had become
alarmed by his silence on the Irish ques.
ton, and feared that it would strip him OF
every vestige OF his masquerade as a friend
OF Ireland" According to the Irish Ameri.
can Mr.. Blaine WAS dragged to the plat
form. It calls the Maine statesman a
'conscienceleess trimming d~emagogue,'
and adds that the foolish blunder OF at
tempting to correct a true report has
caused the Blaine political managers to
feel the utmost dismay over the failure "ol
the latest attempt to palm off the malo1or
GUS relic OF the worst days OF Know-Noth'
ingism as a friend Of Ireland" This is
good deal worse for Mr.. Blaine than the
incensing Of Lord Salisbury.

IT will be interesting to watch the result
OF the present examination of the gold
brick swindlers, because it will show the
charac;er of Justice which rules in Judge
McHatton's court, and whether personal,
polit ical or other obligations have any
effect in determining the weight OF the
punishment to be inflicted on the two cul-
prits, who are about equally guilty, ii
guilty at all.
This indecent attempt to bias or to in
timidate a Judge sitting in judgment ul;on
an important cause appeared in the Intar
Mountain Of last evening. We have no
interest in this cas-. save the interest that
all good citizens should have, that the
guilty should be punished aud the innocent
protected. 1t is the duty Of Judge McHat.
ton to sift, analyze and weigh The evi.
dence and to pass judgment in. accordance
Herewith, without fear or favor, or per.
sonal or political p%reiudices. There is
nothing in Judge McHatton's career to
cause any one to question his honesty and
fairness. We believe that he willhonestly de.
termine between the prisoners and the peo-
pie and he is not likely to allow himself to
be intimidated either by the Inter Noun
tain VI any other alleged influence. In the
excerpt quoted the Inter Mountain shows a
malice that is not at all creditable and an
imperittinence that borders upon contempt
OF court.
Since the above has been put linotype,
Judge Mediation has held Page to
the action OF the Grand Jury. This will
probably meet with the displeasure OF the

DR.. BURCHARD of Rum. Romanism and
Rebellion" fame is in trouble. He was for
a time the President OF Rutgers female COL
lege, but recently for causes best known to
themselves the trustees deposed him
from that position. 1t is alleged by some
that. his too fatherly interest in some OF
the students caused the removal. Be that
as it may the event caused a factional
fight among the girls, and the whole school
was soon divided into Burchard
and anti Burchard parties. On the
occasion of the recent commencement
the Burchard wing who were in
the majority made a request OF the trustees
that the old gentleman be invited to de-
liver the annual address, which was re-
fused. The fight thereupon spread from
the college and is causing considerable ex-
element among the Baptists OF New York.
The reverend gentleman should he satisfied
with the notoriety given him by his famous
ALTERATION and retire gracefully. His de-
feat OF Blaine should be glory enough for
one man. He cannot add to his reputa-
ton by trying to create a feud in the great
religious sect OF which he is a member.

The record OF Edwin NJ. Stanton, the
Secretary OF War during the trying times
OF the great contest, was before the House
OF Representatives yesterday. 4 While.
during the debate he had nothing but de-
tenders on either side Of the political fence,
it can safely be said that there was nothing
in the acrimonious and personal debate
that would or could add to his !aurels.
His history cannot be made up OF personal
attacks on the one side and fugitive letters
on the other. OF all the men who figured
conspicuCusly during the eventful epoch
he is the least understood. That he
had g%|aring faults is u%ndeniable, thathe had
wonderful ability was proven by his adj
ministration OF the affairs entrusted to his
charge. Neither his mistakes nor those OF
Mcclellan are fair subjects OF a partisan
discussion. The calm historian will in time
give to each the reward and blame that at
tached to their conduct. In the meantime
Congress should occupy it's time in dealing
with the busy present, and let his
Wheeler made Il mistake there is
no good reason why every Republican
representative should try to make capital
out Of it. Mr.. Kelley, OF Pennsylvania,
made sufficient answer when he called at
tention to the Objectionable remarks. 1t
is true the Republicans are just now in
need OF political capital, but the files of the
War Department under the administra'
| ton Of Mr.. Stanton is not exactly the
place to find it. The people of the country
honor Mr.. Stanton for his services but they
do not propose to canonize him as a saint

GOOD authority in the city of New York
states that the recent strike Of the car
drivers in that city resulted in the loss OF
81, 900 600. As showing the relative losses
to capital and labor to say nothing OF the
inconvenience to the public, the statement
is published. It is as follows: "a calcula-
ton Of the financial losses consequent upon
the strike of the Third Avenue Street
Railroad drivers shows that hat difficulty
between capital and labor has cost a round
million dollars. Of this, over $500, 900 is
to the strikers themselves in the wages
they would have received during the nine
weeks that they havd been idle. The
Third Avenue company's loss is another
5000, 900. The two days general tie.up
cost the other street-car companies OF the
city $500 900, and their employees nearly
$4,000. The loss Of trades people from
loss OF custom and of the workingmen from
waste OF time adds another $4,000 to the
bill. There were originally 1900 strikers,
and over ] 900 OF them are still out Of
work" These figures ale instructive and
60 to show that strikes are a costly expert
ment and should not be resorted to with
out sufficient cause, and until all means of
arbitration have been exhausted.

THE suicide Of King Ludwig, of Bavaria,

The suicide of King Ludwig, Of Bavaria,
has called attention to his little kingdom.
It has been NEST adroitly managed and
very fortunate in keeping on the winning
side during the present century. In the
beginning of the century, it wa a firm ally
of France and gained much territory
through this alliance. Butin1S13 Bavaria
found that Napoleon's star was waning
and made terms with the allies SO that all
the acquisitions obtained through the
French interest were retained. It's army
aided in the iinal downfall OF Napoleon. In
| the war between Prussia and Austria in
1866, it sided with the latter. After
| Austri;,'s. defeat the Bavarians became
| Prussinn and took an active part with
Prussia in the wal with France. As result
Bavaria had a greater degree OF freedom on
| the formation Of the German confederation
| than any other member. The King who
committed suicide was the third King.
Macmillan was the first king. He received
his title from Napoleon in 1906. He was
succeeded by his son Louis in 1925. Louis
abdicated in 184S in favor OF Macmillan
II. The latter reigned until 1864, when the
King who committed suicide became King
under the title Of King Ludwig II or Louis II.
His successor, King Otto. was his brother
and was born in 1913. The real King
however, is an uncle to Prince Luitpold
The Royal family are well treated by the
State which pays it s1,336,22O annually

times what we pay our President. As the

erty, he is able to live comfortably

FoR the first time Columbia College, New

Philosophy upon a lady graduate, the re-
cipient OF the honor being Miss Winifred
Edgerton. The lady was a graduate from

lumbia for the purpose OF studying astron-
omy and the higher mathematics. The
College was founded one hundred and thir-
ty-two years ago, and as This is the first

oar, handling a bat IF kicking a football,

An Exodus Of "Seeresses.',

Fortune-telling is no longer a profitable
occupation in Butte. Six months ago
there were at least hall a dozen "revealers
OF the future" plying a roaring trade within
the limits of this city-now there are only
two, and the wolf is said to hover ron
stantIy around their doors. Within the
past thirty days three fortune-telling fe-
~males-three attenuated and blase libels on
womanhood-have beed forced by lack of
business to skip out Of Butte. Their de-
parture is a favorable commentary on the
growing intelligence OF Butte, especially
feminine Butte, for it was chiefly upon the
sredulity OF their sex that the so-called
''seeresses' existed. The witches did not
welcome inquisitive men with the cordial
ity which marked their reception If gullible
and sasily-awed women. While j. is true
that tony folks sometimes went to the
fortune-tellers, in a spirit of adventure, the
majority OF the dupes were working girls
and women. And it is an open secret that
the harridans made as much money from
acting as PROGRESSES as they realized from
their alleged disclosures. Their departure
is q blessing.

THE Archbishop OF Toulouse, one OF the
Oldest Sees in France, and the Minister OF
Public instruction are at swords points
over the action OF the latter in prohibiting
the assembling OF a Church Congress, an
nounced to take place at an early date.
The ecclesiastrc says that the meeting is to
be devotional, not deliberative, and that it
will be held in defiance Of the order. If
both remain firm in their determination,
there is liable to be trouble in France.
While liberalism and infidelity have made
rapid pro. ress in that country, there are
still a number of ardent Catholics who will
defend what they believe the rights Of the
Church at any risk.

REFERRING to the recent election in
Oregon, the Philadelphia Press, one Of the
staunchest OF Republican papers, says:
"An important political event has occurred
this week, which indicates clearly the drift
OF public opinion. Last Monday the
Democrats chose their candidate for Gov.
ernor OF Oregon by about 1000 plurality
although at the previous State election the
Republican plurality was about the same,
1t is true that the Congressman will be q
Republican and a part OF the State officers
also, but it was virtually q Republican de.
feat, and should be acknowledged as such.'
The Press is exactly right inits conclusions,
and il could have added that other States
will be more than apt to follow suit. The
Democracy has redeemed all the promises
made during the last campaign, and

BosroN r~ejoices in the boss boy thief Of
the age. He was employed as messenger in
a large trust company and succeeded in
walking off undetected with a box contain
ing bonds, securities and money to the
value of 81 100000, TIL, little fellow did
not know the value of his prize but man
aged to keep it hid for several weeks, and
was only discovered by his ex~travagant
purchases of candy and sweets. On being
confronted with his crime he acknowledged
it and said he had been in the habit Vi
stealing postage stamps but could not get
them in sufficient quantities for his needs.
There is the making Of an able criminal in
that lad.
