Hayti. on a journey which has been too
long delayed. the government ut length
directed that he be taken thither on the
steamer kearsarge, a vessel in h navy.

promptly informed by officers of the
kearsarge that they wou Id take Mr..
Douglass, but they fatty refused to
have him at their table and it became

Of the road. the service has been ex-
cellent, freight has been handled with
expedition, the vast amount of traffic
in this city has been well cared for and
the entire line put in admirable physi-
cal condition from end to end. The
truth is that the record of the un-

public experienced under most of the
administrations before his time. The
people Of Anaconda have not forgotten

soiiloquy ON Butts's Fire.

From the Omaha Bee.
The destructive fire in Butte, following
close on the heels of Spokane Falls, Seat
tie and Ellensburg, furnishes a costly
chain Of evidence Of municipal incompe-
tence. These cities are among the most
progressive in the northwest, rapidly
growing i'm population and commerce, yet
the men chosen to guard their interests
s~quandered the public money i'm trifies
and utterly failed to provide adequate fire
protection. There are scores of western
cities and towns inviting destruction by
similar means. The water supply and
appliances for combating fire should
keep pace with the growth of n commun-
ity. 1t strengthens confidence, reduces
insurance rates and il q strong induce
ment to investors.

Either the New York republicans
yielded to the promptings Of a passing
craze, Oh n managers of the party
nave some hidden purpose not easily
guessed when they declare i'm favor
of a federal law regulating the cleo
/ of members Of the national house
of representatives. Why the Empire
state should wish to bring the election
Of it's own members under n super
vision of federal authority il not clear.
Were h republican national party to
remain long i'm power, its leaders might
hope to profit by interference in the
election of congressman in states far
distant from New York. but the En-
pire state is probably one of the last
that would tolerate the interference of
federal authority in the choice of con
Eressmen. 1t cannot be that anything
good for the whole country can come
out of this scheme.
