SENATOR BLAIR has taken occasion to
make a temperance prohibition speech in
the Senate. In it the gentleman declares
that tb~ree-fourths OF the Republican party
favor the prohibition movement, and that
unless the leaders take a decided stand,
and conform to the wishes of the rank and
file, the party may be disrupted. Temper.
ance may be a snag hat will cause some
detection from it's thinn-d ranks, but fraud
and corruption was the rock on which it
split and which has caused it to drift into
u hopeless minority. Mr.. Blair may rest
assured that no 'issIe'w will prove sufficient
as a rallying cry to again restore the party
to the confidence of the people. It's recent
past has been unsavory for it to ever
again obtain popular recognition and sup
port. It's sins have surely been too grave
to hope that a brief spasm OF penitence can
secure forgiveness, least of all under the
banner Of temperance. There may be some
who will question the statement of Mr..
Blair that so large a number of the remain
ing members are in favor of prohibition,
but it is certain hat the movement has it's
stronghold in strong Republican commu-
mites.

EVERY lover of the drama and admire1
OF it's first ard best exponent in the United
States will be grieved to read the account
OF the Booth performance in New York,
Wednesday night. Giving the great actor
the benefit Of his own statement, and at
tributing the extraordinary spectacle to
an attack OF vertigo" there yet remain
grave apprehensions of his early loss to
the stage. With this idea comes the sad
reflection that in this generate on there is
no one who can in any degree occupy the
position he has SO long held. If on the
other hand, personal excuses have robbed
the man OF bis self respect and talent, he is
an object of commisseration. Either dis
ease, Tor one is as much of Il disease as the
other, is liable at any moment to result in
his death or his permanent retirement
from the stage. The recent di.ath of poor
Mccullough makes the outlook
doubly sad, yet in the midst of doubts we
can earnestly hope whatever the af1iction.
it will be only temporary and that Booth
will be spared for long years to delight his
countrymen in the great art Of .hich he is
the acknowledged master.

THE reception rendered Jefferson Davis
by the people OF Ala bama yesterday at
the Capital of that State was remarkable
in more respects than one. As he stood in
the presence OF the large audience it must
have reminded him OF years ago, when
many OF the same people greeted him at
the same SPOT. Then they were mad with
enthusiasm at the new departure about to
be inaugurated; then they had dreams OF
an independent empire and hailed with
loud acclaim the chosen leader of the ven-
ture. Yesterday the occasion was Of a
different nature, and while the retrospect
was not Of neces sity a bitter one. there
must have been many sad memories OF the
dark days. The occasion was also remark
able that in all that throng the central
figure was the only man in the broad land
who does not wear the garb Of citizenship,
tee only n OF all his fellow soldiers
who has not been the recipient of the
pardon, extended to all Others, the only
unreconstructed man in the United States.
Age has told upon the physique, but the
intellect is undimmed, and as he stood on
the capital step, and delivered bis brief
address. Mr.. Davis must have been much
impressed with the wondrous change that |
time has wrought in his career. No matter
what he has done, however, he will 60 down
to history as an important factor in the
great epoch in which he lived. With the
years of his retirement his worst enemies /
cannot find fault, while the brilliant services
his earlier life commend him to the admi-
OF all Americans.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Free Pres.
a~ssails, it seems to US, in an uncharitable
and unnecessary manner, two gentleman
and one lady, nov performing at one of the
variety theaters OF Butte, who volunteered
their services for Mrs. Lees benefit. The
MINER cannot be accused of having any
weakness for the place. in which they appear,
but the place in which they earn their
living does not necessarily have any
connection with their characters or
their abilities. They are artists in
their business. Among those who know
them well their regulations and characters
are above %reproach, and their generous
offer should nave been received in the same
generous in which it was rendered
even though rejected. There does not
appear to have been any occasion to insult
them for their charitable disposition. The
Butte Athletic Club desire Messrs. Calburt
an Moore and Miss Whitney to under
stand thst they are in no wise responsible
for the article in question and have no
sympathy with it.

CONGRESS again began to wrestle VI,

CONGRESS again began to wrestle with
| the subject Of the Trade dollar, the
Coinage Committee OF the House having
devoted it's entire session to the considera-
ton of the subject. That the creation of
the coin was q mistake il universally ad-
mitted, and that it should long ago have
been either retired or monetized is equally
conceded, yet Congress has for years been
haggling over the matter without reaching
any result. The question is surely simple
enough not to puzzle the brains OF the able
legislators, but for sons reason they have
seen fit to invest it with a dignity and
Importance out Of all proportion to
its merits. Now, however, the anti-silver
men have found q new use for it. They
coolly propose that the Trade dollar shall
be retired ard that the sum necessary tn
retire it shall be charged to the ~ta ndard
dollar fund. It is hardly PROBABLE that
they expect after purchase to lum-
Der up the vaults Of the Treasury with the
useless coin, but the cunning suggestion
makes no provision for re-coinage. The
number outstanding is not very great, yet 4
is too large to be deducted from the |
sm all sum allowed the great silver
interests and the laboring masses whose
coin it is. The proposition 10 an outrage
and should be buried in the room Of the
where it now is.

The House Committee on Territories, to
whom the subject had been referred, decided
yesterday to report adversely the bill for
the admission OF Dakota as it passed the
Senate. The objection on the part OF the
committee seems to be to the division OF
the Territory rather than an opposition OF
the admission OF new states. It is to be
hoped that the division OF sentiment among
the people Of that Territory on the question
OF statehood will not be permitted to inter-
fere with the rights of Montana and Wash
ington, both of whom have applied for adj
mission. Each demands the right on it's
own merit, irrespective OF politics or any
other consideration. Besides the people OF
both are a unit in pressing their demands.
For this reason it is only fair that Congress
should take up the matters and give them
due consideration without any reference to
the Dakota squabble.

Mr.. JAMES SHIELDS, Collector of United
States Internal Revenue for Montana and
Idaho, yesterday received the following
letter:
HOUSE OF REPREsENTATIvEs,|
WASHINGTON, D. c.. April FL, 1886.
James Shields, Esq, Butte, Montana:
FRIEND SHIELDs-Your nomination was
confirmed to-day. Yours truly,
j.. K. TooL.E.
The confirmation OF Mr.. Shields il
another indication of the success attend.
ant upon Delegate Toole's efforts at Wash.
ington. Eighty-three nominations have been
sent into the Senate for the office OF Col.
lector of Internal Revenue. Mr.. Shields
ma me was among the last sent in, if it was
not the very last. But three of the eighty.
three have been confirmed and Mr. Shields,
was the very first. Eighty still hang upon
the nail. The prompt and favorable action
taken upon Mr.. Shields nomination is not
only a great compliment to that gentleman.
but exceedingly fattering to Delesate Toole.
No member OF either house OF Congress has
secured to his constituents go large a pro-
portion of local appointments as has Dele
gate Toole, nor have any nominations been
more promptly confirmed. MIR. Toole is
makinga splendid record.
