The Senate has passed the Chinese in
demnity bill to repay the sufferers by the
Rock Springs riot. The majority for the
measure was so great that there can be
little doubt Of it's passage by the House.
This is as it should be. In equity if not in
law the sufferers are entitled to a recon
pense for their wrongs, and the great Gov
ernmsnt of the United States cannot
afford to let a few bubbles, or the bitter
animosity Of some OF it's citizens stand in
the way OF its melting out justice. As a
matter OF fact the sum appropriated should
be collected from the strikers and their
abettOrs,

In all this fight against capital, dreadful,
awful, oppressive capital, the demand in
every new region is constantly for capital.
From the Caur d'Alenes, Washington Ter
ritory, Alaska, indeed, from almost every
new region, comes the demand for linen
with capital" This shows one thing-that
labor cannot well get along without its
"in, capital. While capitals the product
of labor, it is labor's great hand-maid-the
fulcrum upon which to place the lever OF
progress.

MANAGER Mcguire has made a noble
effort to please the amusement-loving p"o-
pie Of Butte. 1t was due to his efforts
that our beautiful little opera house was
built and the community thus given a clean
and attractive place in which to witness
dramatic performances. Manager Mcguire
fitted and equipped this house in a sump-
tuous manner. It is not to be denied tat
the northern circuit is not a profitable
one for theatrical companies. Mama
ger Mcguire had great difficulty in
securing good companies. He could
obtain none at all for the summer season,
and in consequence organized the stock
company which has been playing here for
the past few weeks. The company is an
excellent one. 1t is by all odds the best
that has ever appeared here. 1t has pro-
duced the very best OF modern drama in an
excellent style. 1t remains to be said that
the performances have not re-
eived the encouragement that they
should have received. Indeed,
the patronage has not reimbursed Manager
Mcguire for his enterprise. This has been
the late OF nearly every that HAS
appeared at the Opera House recently.
Next week Manager Mcguire will return to
Butte and will produce spectacular plays
like 1.-THE World and the Lights o. Lon
don." This week he will give us a refined
speciality show. Ii this diversity
of talent does not please or
draw paying houses, Mr.. Mcguire will
probably make a radical change in the
Opera House-one that would be a credit
neither to the intelligence or refinement OF
Butte. If the variety theater is the sort
OF entertainment that the people of Butte
will p~atronize then Mr.. Mcguire means to
give it to them. It would, however, be
almost a sacrilege to turn the Opera House
into a variety theater.

As FAR as the present session OF Congress
has gone neither party, it is the opinion OF
the WASHINGTON Hatchet, which mas been
watching matters closely, has been either
helped or hurt by it. The discussion OF
which involved political issues
has lone little more than TO emphasis the
curious confusion into which party lines
have become tangled, and the hopelessness
OF attempting to unite either organization
upou any distinctly leading question OF
public policy. With n exception in the
Senate, the caucus has scarcely been called
upon to secure unanimity Of political
action, and in the case OF this exception it's
dictate was treated with contempt. As lar
as future campaigns are concerned things
have been allowed to drift along in a hap
hazard way, and each man has looked
after his own record without any
special care for general party capital.
This is the more noteworthy in
view of the fact that this is the
first long session to follow a change in the
National Administl alton. The general ex-
notation wal that it would be full OF par
tisan bitterness: that there would be e.
pressions of angry disappointment on one
side and an unwise exaggeration OF exulta-
ton on the other. But there has been
neither. Beyond the occasional burning
of sectional red-lights, which may always
be expected when a pension bill is up, the
session has been politically aimless and
~conservatively commonplace. Ii there is a
radical change in the complexion OF Con-
gress this fall it will be due largely to local
conditions. Certainly the parties have
done nothing which calls for special praise
or special condemnation. As far as gen.
eral effect on the country goes, they stand
precisely where they did when they met
last December. The expected battle did
not occur. There has not been anything
more impressive than a making OF
faces. Perhaps the reason for this
NAV be found in the attitude OF the Demo-
cractic party towards the President when
Congress first convened. At that time it
was somewhat threatening. He had not
az had been anticipated and the organization
which had put the cakes and ale in his
hands were sullen and hungry. Under the
circumstances it was wise policy for the
Republicans to play a waiting game and
take every advantage OF the antagonism
which was offered. But, in the end, the OPP
position did not amount to much. Later
on, when the Edmunds boomerang WAS in
PRODUCED for the purpose OF rehabilitating
the doubtful party allegiance of the YER
mont Senator, the Democrats were ready
enough to put themselves in harmony with
the White House.

THE male jenkins who ~isdogging the foot

earning his salt and should be relieved. II

could at least have the satisfaction OF

Cleveland, but when her male prototype

The late Father Ryan, the poet priest,
had a clear, open countenance and a lofty
forehead. His eyes were blue and kindly.
Besides being a poet he was a musician.
He would go frequently to the house OF one
ofhis Pensioners and, tellin g the servant not
to call any one, would take his seat at the
piano. With a cigar between his teeth he
would play and improvise for hours, and
upon coming back to things CT this world
would be surprised to find that he had
spent four or five hours in perfectignorance
of his surroundings.

BECAUSE the Third Avenue street car line
OF New York has been employing %non-union
men since the recent strike, all the other
street lints in New York, Brooklyn, Jersey
City and Hoboken are agair tied up. This
action OF the drivers, who have no possible
complaint, is an outrage upon the public
and cannot be justified under any circum-
stances. 1t was fondly hoped that the
point had been settled in the Southwestern
strike, but as it seems it is not, we trust
hat the people of New York will assert
hat they have some rights Us well as the
car drivers, and see to it that the strike is
summaIily ended.

On the Transcaspian Railroad in Russia,
now approaching Merv, it is claimed that
$500 per mile is being saved by the use OF
ozokerite or mineral wax, for ties. When
purified, melted and mixed with limestone
and gravel, the ozokerite, which is abund-
ant in the vicinity OF the railroad, produces
a very good asphalt. This is pressed into
shape in boxes, and gives ties which retain
their form and hardness ever in the very
weather.
