From the time of the Romans until. i'm
very modern times artillery rendered city
walls useless, there was no further deyel
opment OF the front steps; for i'm
walled towns space is an ALL important
consideration and the Roman plan of having
the door set back from the street was the
only one that permitted the use of steps,
These could not be permitted to project into
street that was barely wide enough 10 per
init the passage OF cart The building of
narrow streets and tall houses was a matter
OF military policy, for the city that held the
most people In proportion To the length of
the wall surrounding IL would of course
have the most thoroughly manned defenses.
What the people OF those walled towns did
without yards, roofs or front steps is mys-
terry. Indeed it is a mystery how the people
OF these towns, found life at all worth living
in those gallant days of old " when men
had to live behind strong walls and be-
trained to arms from childhood that they
might defend their property, their lives and
homes from freebooters or so-called con.
querors.

interest and returned to this city.
Feeling assured that a varietv theater,
properly equipped and provided with
first-class attractions would prove pay
ing investment, Mr.. Gordon interested
himself in the building Of the present
Theater Comique in Butte, a cut Of
which appears upon this page. This Is
one of the largest, best appointed, and
best managed variety theaters in the
West. On May 8, 1885, with Mr.. L.
Hamilton as his associate, he opened the
theater with an excellent company Of
artists, and secured one of the most
popular managers (Mr. Harry Montague)
in the profession. 1t Immediately be-
came popular amusement resort and
to-day the Theater Comique in Butte
stands foremost as the most completely
furnished, best managed and most popu-
lar and successful variety theater on the
Pacific Coast. Mr.. Gordon has adhered
to his determination to employ none
but first-class performers for his stage.
The favor with which the long list of
stars that he has, at great expense,
brought to Butte from every part of tho
United States, attests his wisdom and
thorough knowledge of the business.
This enterprising gentleman and pioneer
in the variety theatre business in Mon
tana is still young man, being only 80
years of age. Genial in disposition,
courteous in demeanor, pleasing in ad-
dress, kind, considerate and accommo-
dating to his employees, he is respected
and beloved by the profession and de-
servedly popular with his patrons and
the public.

The variety theater business, which
has assumed such large proportions in
Butte during the past year, was first in
augurated in Montana by Mr. onn A. Cor
don, = cut Of whom is here given. In
1881 Mr.. Gordon conceived the idea of
furnishing an innocent, healthy enter
tainment within the means of laboring
men, and on the 25th day of November
Of that year he opened the Theater
Comique on East Park street, Butte City.
At that time, as at the present, Mr.. Cor
don would have none but first-class tai
ent upon his stage. The amusement
loving public appreciated his efforts and
seconded the enterprise by generous
patronage, and the venture was, financi-
ally and otherwise, crowned with sue
cess. In connection with the theater
Mr.. Gordon built and conducted the
Tivoi Beer Hall, then occupying the
southwest corner of Main and Park
streets, which proved a paying enter
prise. He also leased Renshaw Opera
House on West Park street, where for
several months he played his fine
troupes, Friday nights, before immense
audiences largely composed Of families.
When the opera house was not thus
occupied he rented it to travelling theat-
rical companies. Being offered induce
ments to 60 to Helena to engage in the
variety business in that city, he went
there in 1882, and after experimenting
the construction Of the Academy Of
Music, built by Mr.. John H. Ming, Of
Helena, he opened and ran the theater
for over year, in connection with his
theater in Butte, when he sold out his

Into this army OF the United States there should
be enlisted no foreigner. II should, In rank aud
nle, be entirely composed OF nstiye-Dom citi-
zens-the reason Is apparent the compensa-
ton OF private soldiers should be Increased /;
there should be no enlistment allowed under Is
years OF age It should be confined to unmar-
RED persons. and the term not longer thar nNe
wears.
Better, in our Judgment, TO have ioo. 900 OF
such soldiers scattered abroad IN the country
than to permit this foreign element TO further
Encourage itself in the belief that the law
would ind but feeble enforcement against It's
unauthorized but violent acts. We may not
longer close our eyes TO the fact that there ex-
lists In the United States some millions OF
p~eople-mostiy Of foreign birth-who are dan
gerous citizens they have no conception Of
those underlying principles that are peculiar TO
our government. viz. submission to the law
and submission to the minority. The right OF
trial by Jury, demanding the concurrence OF
tw eive minds to protect property or punish
crime, defeats the administrator Of justice in
all communities whers there is organized and
popular opposition to established laws. An
army OF 10000 Americans. we'll paid. and so
desirable that our young men would seek ad-
mission to It's ranks. would afford the country a
reliable defense from all interior disturbances.
and the Ave years OF enlistment. between the
ages OF Is and Is. would be not a bad education
for the beginning Of a buIiness.
1t does not seem to occur to this re-
former that the same objections, with
stronger force, must, according 10 his
reasoning, apply to the present constitu-
ton Of iuries, but perhaps the exclusion
of foreign born citizens from the panel
and the box may follow as a necessary
corollary to the original proposition. But
the greatest danger of all would still be
unprovided against-the ballot. 1t only
remains TO advocate restricting the elect
i've franchise within similar limits. This
will not be long delayed. As to
the army, there might be an exception
made in case of war. when even
patriots of foreign birth, under the sur
Vigilance Of patiye officers, might be al
lowed to peril their lives for a country
which would confer upon them such
marks of distinction. The proposition is
made In all sincerity and with full ialtn
in the entire propriety Of the measure
proposed. Nor need such a wild project
greatly astonish those who have observed
the gradual growth Of nativism during
the last few years. especially as shown by
a disposition to abridge the rights Of for
eigners Of the Caucasian race No pro-
iect could be more un-American than
this excessive "Americanism. 1t is not
improbable, however, that the opposition
to Democracy may, after another cam
paign, assume this very form. 1t has I'M
dergone many transformations and this
has already been one Of them. If Sec
tionalism be doomed to perish, there will
be little left to interfere with except the
accidents of birth and belief.

Z rnE UNIVERSITY BUILDING,

The university commission has selected
from the plans presented for considcra.
ton that Of A Denver architect, and will,
as soon as the details are perfected, adver-
tise for bids from builders no that the
work Of erection may commence as soon
as possible. The Boomerang gives the
following description Of the building as il
will appear
The university as shown by the plans
just approved, will be entirely built OF
stone. aud will present a most imposing
appearance. IL is Of the modern style of
architecture, the front elevation being
most attractive. The building will be 1855
feet in length and 20 feet in width. three
stories high aud crowned in the center by
a massive tower. rising to a spire and very
graceful IN its outlines. A double fight
Of stone steps leads to the main entrance,
and on either side, and half way between
this and the end Of the building is an
other broad entrance Of harmonious de
sign. The body of the structure will be
built Of the pink sandstone found in the
quarries near this city. provided il is
found in sufficient quantities and proves
suitable in every way, as it is beyond
question il will do. The water tables,
sills. caps and trimmings will probably be
of Rawlins sandstone, which will form a
pleasing contrast with the rest. The roof
is somewhat Of tho mansard style. but
does not curve, and the iron trimmings
serve TO remove any appearance Of heavi.
ness from the building.
The cost is estimated at SAT 900, which
is sufficiently within the appropriation to
allow Of paying all insidental expenses.

unanimously decided to report adversely
to the confirmation OF Posey S. Wilson as
assayer of the Denver mint. According
to the Denver Neies the fight against VIII

is based on a letter written by him to
Judge Fisher of this city. 1t is probable
that the senate will follow the recommen-
dation Of its committee and reject the
nomination. 1t may be added, as a mat
ter Of notoriety here, that the appoint
ment was obtained by fraud and false pre-
lenses, Of a character little short Of down

An Austro-H Hungarian company has OBJ
tanned the concession for transporting
petroleum from the great wells in the
Caucasus district to Europe by railway
or boat. The company has already dis
tributed 200 immense tanks along the
Baku-Batoum railway line, and pipes are
laid from the Batoum station to the pier,
where the oil will be run into boat tanks
specially constructed for the purpose.
Three million pools Of petroleum are
ready for transportation.
The introduction of Russian petroleum
into Austria, which is chiefly undertaken
by Hungarians, who work two very
large oil refining mills at Fiume and
Pesth, besides fourteen smaller ones, has
given rise to a conflict between the Hun
garian and Austrian ministries which
threatens to prevent the renewal of the
