SENATOR FRYE OF Maine is vexed be-
cause the United States has not gone to
war with Germany over the Samoan
Islan1s. He claims that King Maletoa
was a very warm friend of the United
States and was under the protection Of
this government, but that he has been
allowed to be driven into exile by his
rebelliOus subjects under Tamasse, aided
and abetted by the Germans and Great
Britain, who have virtually driven the
Americans and their business away.
After all, it's a question, a serious one,
too, how far a country like the United
States should allow its physical aid to go
in the matter of helping a people SO far
removed as those in these far southern
Pacific islands. 1t is easy enough to
thresh little Hayti and Mexico, and take
virtual possession of Nicaragua (and
Canada, too } but Samoa is a good ways
off-and Germany's a great big country
to fight with. 1t may be that discretion
is the better part of yalor; and Maletoa
must look out for himself

The Copper Market,

On the subject OF copper the circular OF
James f. Matthews & Co., of Denver. OF
December 5 has this TO say:
Copper has been the subject of little in
terest at New York with the price at 1850
to 1850 for nearby deliveries but at the
close great excitement occurred on account
OF a fire at the Calumet and Hecla mines
which bids fair to be more disastrous than
even the one OF last year. 1t may result ia
that curtaIlment OF production which was
planned as a matter Of design and which
alone can save the syndicate from the
present excess OF stocks which pile up
steadily and are now very close tn 100, 600
tons. Negotiations have tieen pending for
q long contract for the early months of
next year. Consumers have hesitatel very
much at being marked up from their last
figure, bub it is now more than
Pfehab4etitat the excitement over tile fire
will Increase their anxiety to close the
trad, AID will probably enhance the value
OF the article to the syndicate al least
hall IL cent Per pound. The news ia too
recent to have made its effects evident.
London has been extremely dull with Chilli
bars falling off from ELS for spots to EFT
and g.. NJ. BIS at the Same figure. The ne
gotiations for continuing the contracts
with the large companies based on a cur
tallment OF production make good pro-
gress and are expected soon to be finally
closed. The news OF the Calumet fire
dropped the price of that stock from $3OS
to $3.50, and the end is not vet.

THE "Inter Mountain" editor, who has
earned the reputation Of the "blackguard
of Montana newspapers" makes it a
boast, we understand, that he downs
every newspaper nan who comes to the
Territory. That's an enviable record, in
deed. 1t is also said that no man can
carry on a controversy with this indiyid-
ual, and maintain very long his self
respect, for he was never known to con-
duct a discussion on principles in his
life. His object, it is said, in bringing
ON this present controversy is to wiring
personalities in, and to try and bring in
the name Of some n not concerned in
the warfare against whom be has a
spite. 1t is evident that a decent contro-
yersy cannot be carried on with SUCH a
low specimen of humanity, whose black
beetle methods have earned him such an
unenviable notoriety.

who furnished him with. means which he
put to very poor uses. He associated with

He lodged at the Clarendon House, and one

symptoms Of Catarrh.

I ~nnearly all cases where catarrh has ex-

iaIly where the patient hives IL n district
that around Chicago, where o great
majority of the people are subject to Ca
tarrhal a~ffectious-it extends down the
windpipe and into the tubes which convey
The air INTO the lungs. These tubes then
swell and cause an oppressive sense OF full
pess about the throat. They become q led
with mucous, and t~hepatient cannot breathe
freely, but suffers frequently from short
ness OF breath.
II many cases there is a sound oil crack
line and wheeling inside the chest. At this
stage or the disease the breathing is usu-
ally more rapid than when in health. The
patient has also hot flashes over his body.
The pain which accompanies this condition
as OF q dull character, felt in the chest, be-
hind the breast bone, or under the shoul-
~der-blade. The pain may come and go
last d few days ana then he absent Tor sew
e, al Others. The cough that occurs in the
first stage OF bronchial catarrh is dry,
comes on at intervals, is hacking in char
acter, and is usually most troublesome in
the morning on arising or going to bed at
night, aud it may be the first evidence oil
the disease extending into tbelungs.
Very often there are fits of coughing in
dnced by the tough mucus SO violent as to
cause vomiting. Later OF the mucus that
is raised is found to contain small
particles OF yellow matter, indicating that
the small !ubes in the lungs are o affect
ed. With this there arc often streaks OF
blood mixed with the mucus. In some
Cases the patient become very pale, has
fever. and expectorates before any cough
appears.
Occasionally small masses of cheesy sub
stances are spit up, which, when pressed
between the fingers, emit a bad odor. In
other cuses particles of a hard, chalky ma
ture are spit up. The raising OF cheesy or
chalky Jumps indicates serious mischief at
work in the lungs.

LIZ the miserable little black beetle Of
the "Inter Mountain" doesn't like to hear
about yellow dogs" why does it intro
duce the subject in its rawlings? Instead
Of leaving personalities out Of its col
umns, and discussing questions of prin-
ciples on their merits alone, the shifting
beetle flies into a passion every time its
path is crossed, indulges in low personal
abuse, and then, when hit back,
says it never began a personal
controversy, ETC.! This thing, which,
by some mistake, is permitted to
have carte blance for personal assaults
on character, has earned the reputation
Of "the newspaper BLACKBOARD OF Mon
tana." When it cannot scare by its
black beetle efiuyia, it makes the most
woful menaces and threats. But, after
all, it does the best it knows; a mongrel-
ly creature with less than a thimbleful
Of brains cannot be expected to know
what is decent.

Last February Judge McLeary made an

tendaht, Isaac M~urthouse, to pay his wife

complied for three months, and then re-
'uaec to pay any more III the ground that
such an order could only be made in open
court. Messrs. Mcbride and HaIdorn OBJ

cause why he should not be punished for
contempt. Messrs. Toole, Wade and Penn

In che Democratic caucus Of Repre-
s%entatives at Washington, Tuesday, there
was a general feeling that the territories
should be admitted to statehood. Many
were in favor Of the omnibus bill, to ad-
NIT them all; others favored all but Utah
and New Mexico, while two or three op-
posed the admission of any of the ter
ritOries.
AS a party measure, the Democrats
should not hesitate about admitting
every territory which knocks at the door
of statehood, with the divided Dakotas.
As a matter of simple justice, there
should be equally prompt action in the
Of these territories. The pop
ulation is increasing with marvellous
rapidity. The sections are growing in
intelligence and wealth, and they are
capable of self-goyernment.
Why not admit them this winter?
We look to the Democrats of the
Congress to do their duty in this
matter. 1t is not a party matter, but it
damage the party that makes it
such to the refusal Of the right of state
hood.

TARIFF REFORM AS A DUTY.
Senator Allison has now turned tariff
reformer, and he wants to make the
whole country believe the whole Repub-
lican party has always been in favor Of
tariff reform and revenue reductioni Was
there ever such glaring inconsistency?
The Chicago platform was openly antag-
onistic to tariff reform, and declared that
If any reduction was necessary, it should
be in the internal revenue taxes, that is,
ON whisky and tobacco.
Does Senator Allison forget the Chi
cago platform, or what can the man
mean by thus misrepresenting the atti-
tude of his party ON the tariff question?
The truth is, the Republican party, as
well as the rest of the country, is being
educated on this tariff question. The
bali set in motionin Cleyeland's message
last December, is still rolling on. The
good work then seriously begun, is going
right ahead. Tariff reform Is a fact.
Even the Republican Senators recOg-
nized this truth before the campaign
was over, and they sought to makethe
most Of the discovery just as soon as pos
sible by drafting the tariff bill known as
the Senate substitute"-a measure
which sought to make a greater reduc-
ton in the tariff tax than that proposed
by the famous Mills bill.
These facts show which way the cur
rent is running. Cleveland and the
were right, and the Repub-
lican leaders are beginning to realize
the fact. And it is this fact which
prompted Senator Allison to exclaim,
yesterday, in the Senate chamber, in the
face of the Chicago platform: "There
never had been a time when the finance
did not know that a revision
the tariff and a reduction of the reye-
nue. was absolutely necessary"
That declaration means a good deal
in spite of the adamantine cheek neces-
sary to enable a leading Republican to
make such a statement.
Verify, the world does move.

THERE was another long blast from
the mountaineering nihilist of the "InteI
Mountain" last night. Strange to say,
it was not double-leaded. Doubtless the
black beetle supposed that his Mountain
Meadow tactics would leave the field free
for him to assault regulations at will
and unmolested. If so, this journalistic
blackguard, for once, has erred. The
boasts which he almost daily makes that
he is at home in assailing character, is
doubtless true, for, If half the reports be
true, charcoal would make a white mark
on his character. Ii the "Inter Noun
tain" gang want this personal racket"
continued, THE MINER is furnished with
material to show up the whole crowd,
with reference to yellow dogs. Mountain

business, some Of which are well known

can be shown that personal journalism"
is not the wisest thing in the world for
people who are not inyulnerable to the

SENATOR VESTS remarks, yesterday
on the tariff discussion, in reply to Sena.
tor Sheraian's foolish assertion that "the
late election settled the question Of tariff
legislation" were right to the point and
made clear the fact that he, at least, un-
derstands the merits of the tariff dis
cussion, which Sherman clearly does
not. The question will not be settled
until the reform necessary to relieve the
country of paupers is effected. Under
the present high tariff system the pau
pers are increasing faster in proportion
than the millionaires. Proper tariff
reform would give all an equal chance
for prosperity.

AT the session of the Interstate Com
merce Commission at Chicago, Tuesday,
Judge Cooley "read the riot act" to the
two hundred railroad managers and gen.
eral passenger agents assembled. He
particularly scOlded the roads that have
disseminated in passenger rates by deal
ing secretly with scalpers. He said that
the "pernicious practice" would have to
be stopped at once or the offenders would
be prosecuted. This lecture must have
amused, rather than scared, the railroad
magnates. They know very we'll that
the law is no barrier to any ambition or
undertaking of theirs.

HERE is a specimen of tariff taxa ion,

HERE is a specimen of tariff taxa ion.
1t shows to the thoughtful the ~iniquity
Of the system. A cargo Of sugar arrived
at San Francisco, last week, valued at
100000. A tax Of $4,000 was paid on
the sugar, but the collector thought the
government should have more, so he
seized the sugar, vessel, and warehouse
where part of the sugar was stored. This
resulted in an additional tax of $62,4Ol
being paid, making the total tax paid
$202,401 on 100000 worth of sugar.
This is the fault of the system rather
than Of the officers who execute the pro-
visions. Even allowing the sugar to be
worth 100000, it shows that for every
dollars woIth of sugar one purchases,
the consumer has to pay the government
about 46 cents. This is an outrage on
the people.
