should see to it that a Touring mill is

add largely to the future trade of our

that will otherwise be diverted from
us. Who will lead out in this matter?

In THE death OF Morrison h. Waite
thief Justice Of the United States, yester-
dav.t the country sustains the loss OF a
iurist who was a worthy successor OF Sal
mon P. Chase, his immediate predecessor
and the illustrious names that preceded
him. There rave in all been only seven &C.
c~upants of the chair that has just become
can't since the organization OF the ST.
nreme Court in 1880. Chief Justice Waite
was born IN 1916, and was consequently III
h,s 72d wear when he died. He had been
fourteen wears in Office, and was APP
pointed by General Grant, from
Ohio. He had earned his high-
est distinction as a lawyer in the
able manner in which he presented the
American case before the Geneva Board OF
Arbitration on the Alabama cases, a dis
t~iuction he shared with ". NJ. Evarts, and
his promotion to the position made vacant
nv the death Of Chief Justice Chase was IN
recognition of the ability and learning he
then displayed. He has made two trips to
this northwestern country, once with Presl-
dent Arthur in his trip to Yellowstone Park
and last year to alaska with his daughter.
In his first he received injuries by a TALL
from his horse that affected him to the

MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.

The municipal situation at Helena still
remains torpid in spite Of the best efforts
OF both papers to whoop up the candidates
to come forward. The general impression
seems to be that o Joint ticket will have to
be put in the field as the citizens fail to
take sufficient interest to nominate party
tickets. As far as municipal elections 60,
this party Indifference ought to be the rule.
National questions have nothing earthly
in common with the subjects that are
generally at issue in municipal elections
But simply from the fact that the organ
ization OF the national parties presents the
readiest vehicle for managing nominations
and afterwards conducting the contest,
they are generally acquiesced in. Almost
invariably we see the candidates for NUM-
cipal office divided into Democrats and
Republicans and the records of the national
parties are made to DO duty in municipal
campaigns where they nave no reason to
be. The issues involved in Helena are hard
to discover. The city has decided affirma-
lively that $15O,OOO for bonds have to be
issued to make municipal in prOvements
and the Council and officers to be elected
at the coming election are TO be the almon'
ers of this amount of money. All that If
therefore apparently needful IN the incOm,
TO whose hands nOne of the money raised
will stick and who will see that the city
gets a dollars worth OF value for every
dollar she pays out. \ mans politics cuts
no figure in this.
SO also at the approaching city election
in Butte. The voters will in the first in.
stance he required to express their prefer,
cnCe on reincorpOratiOn and enlargement
Of the city limits. Then will come the reg,
ular annual election OF officers. II reincOr-
p0ratiOn passes-as there are the best Of
reasons for relieving it Wilt Will become
necessary to elect a Council Of the best,
most progressive citizens, who will deal
wisely and sensibIy with the new situatiOn
presented, men who know what the needs
Of the city arc. and who will set about the
matter Of municipal improvement with
moderation and without rashness or
haste. There are plenty such citizens here,
and they are confined to no party. The
proposition for reincorporation came from
a body of men in which both parties were
equally represented, and they pledged
themselves unitedly to work for it's success.
If they succeed, only by general co-opera-
ton can the new condition OF affairs be
made a success.

The blizzard they had in New York Ell
fectuaIIy demonstrated the inconvenience
and danger of he wing electric wires strung
along th~oroughfares on poles. Had the
telegraph, telephone and electric light CON-
pauies been obliged to lay their wires IN
derground in a conduit, the city would
have been spared a great deal OF incon-
v%enience then, and, in addition, nearly a
score Of people would not have lost their
lives by coming in contact with the charged
wires of the electric light company that
had broken down. Similar consequences
are liable to occur in any large city, and
indeed, wherever electric wires are strung
by the accumulation OF ice on the wires
which bear8 them to the ground OF their
own weight. Changing them from overhead
to underground would involve immense .eN-
pense, but it would benefit the companies
in the end by the safety it would afford the
| wires from destruction at fires as we'll as
from being weighted down by ice and blown
| down by storms.
