IT'S A BIG THING,

In a preliminary way, the DISPOSE
ton of the estate of the late Judge
Davis is I'm the hands of the district
court. 1t would be out of character to
venture any forecast as to what that
court may find. There are plenty of
people who are anxious to administer
the estate, claimants representing in
terests now known to he bitter rivals
have had their say and pleaded their
cause.
According to the most conservative
estimates presented in court during the
days of the hearing. the estate is a mag
niiiceut affair. In disposing of il the
large majority of people In Butte are
agreed, We believe, in regard to what
they would like TO see done with a gen
erous share of the property, but that
sentiment does not enter into consider
alton now. The disposition of these
millions has passed into a realm where
sentiment cannot assert itself-and for
this Judge Davis himself is response
BILE.
IL is natural that the public should
speculate freely regarding the outcome
of the proceedings now pending before
Judge Mediation. II makes all the
difference in the world to the heirs
themselves. The person who gets the
administration of the property has an
assured fortune for a starter the fees
allowed by the laws of Montana take
care of that. Assuming that the estate
runs from three to seven millions, the
administrators fees, aside from clerk
hire and the like, will be somewhere be-
tween $4,000 and S2s0,OOO. No won
der the claimants are anxious. And,
suppose the prize should happen to fall
to the public administrator, what a lot
of people there are in Butte who will
wish that they had made the possession
of that Office the greatest effort of their
lives. Sanders would have taken up
his residence i'm Silver Bow and grabbed

came impressed with the idea that
Butte was in dead earnest regarding
the building, and, all there is about 1t,
he addressed himself to the matter
with a good deal Of ~earnestness. The
congressman worked hard early In the
present week to hasten q favorable
report i'm committee, and the STAND

of this service, whether Mr.. Carter be

This federal building business will he

Butte gets the appropriation. The city
is entitled to IL: il isn't asking much
of congress to urge that the largest and
busiest city in Montana be favored with
a modest appropriation and 1t isn't 60
ing to grace the head of any politician
with a remarkably large halo to get the
money out of congress. At the same
time, effective help toward securing an
appropriation will be generously recog-
nized by the people Of Butte.
A good deal of nonsense is afioat re-
garding the relations of Mr.. Carter to
Butte's effort for a building. A stranger

benefit of those who contribute the
enormous campaign funds the party
must have C in every four years,
and the mass of the voters wont bite

bait upon their hook. They have fixed
up a bill that increases the taxation on
the necessaries of life except sugar, and
that they put on the free list in the
hope that this one little charity will
cover a multitude of tariff sins.
Even this exception is sc arranged
that the producers of sugar shall not
lose. They are to he paid out of the
public treasury so much per pound for
all the sugar they raise. and the people
are to be taxed directly several millions
of dollars annually for their benefit.
Hundreds of millions of acres of

The recent debate in congress relative
to foreign ownership in mining proper
ties, of which the STANDARD printed a
full summary, is attracting its share OF
attention. The hardship entailed on the
average miner who may discover a valu-
able property hut who lacks the means
for its development is n OF the incl
dents in mining life with which readers
OF the STANDARD are familiar but which
congressman in the East do not compre-
bend. Regarding the question the Salt
Lake Tribune Says: money Is 80 valu-
able i'm this country and its uses are SO
manifold, that Americal capital is very
chary about investing in mines except
those that are thoroughly developed and
i'm a condition to make the owners indif-
fercnt about selling them. Hence a man
with a prospect, though IL nay have a
Con-virginia bonanza beneath the sur

FRIDAY. APRIL %, 1880.

The twelve page edition of the
STANDARD issued last sunday was pro-
nounced by its thousands of readers TO
be the best sunday newspaper ever
printed in Montana. IL was bright,
newsy, entertaining. IL looked well
and read well. IL was received with
marked favor by all patrons of the
STANDARD. IL was admitted to be a
iirst-rate Sunday paper in every respect,
but il was not as good an edition rs the
STANDARD for next sunday promises
10 be. Following the progressive po-
Icy that has made 1t the most success
full journal ever published In Montana,
the publishers of the STANDARD pro-
pose that each succeeding issue of the
sunday edition shall he al improve
ment on its predecessors. The edition
for day after tomorrow will do its
share toward the execution of that po-
Icy.
The Monday morning STANDARD is
a fixture now. The field was open for
il and the Monday edition was
started just at the right time. The de-
mand for il exceeds the expectations of
the owners of the STANDARD. No in
crease in subscription rates was made
when the regular Monday edition was
added, but the business office is rapidly
getting eve with this extra expense by
the increase i'm the circulation of each

old yet. but il is old enough to know
what the reading public wants and it
fills its large field like a veteran.
