Gen. J. r. Hawley expressed the cor
rect sentiment in the senate Monday, in
discussing the pension bill then under
consideration when he declared that
THE union soldier would be very sorry
and ashamed to be called upon to say how
much the nation owed him in arrears.
The prominent feature in his state was
that the needy soldier should not suffer.
but that nothing should be wasted on a
man who did not need pension for his
support. The true soldier of the repub-
lie did not want to have money wasted.
They wanted to have their suffering
comrades aided, and they want the glory
of having fought for their country with
out respect TO money considerations"

The Earned Eagle-Optic DEM IN
exuivocally claims the silver bill that
passed the senate last week as a Demo-
cratic measure: that it originated in a
Democratic mind and was passed by
Democratic votes. As to the last propo-
sition il must be admitted-and we re-
greet it is so-that but for the Demo
cratic votes it would not have passed:
but it is also true that the Democrats
could not have passed the bill without
Republican assistance. But the anus
ing part of the claim is that it is a Demo
cratic measure. originated by that party
or any member of it. This, as a joke.
will no doubt be enjoyed by Senator
Plumb, through whose creative genius
and ceaSeless effort the bill was trans
formed into decent shape and passed by
the senate. The editor of our Larned
namesake will never die of inanition,

Montana law lately passed is pretty good

1t would show very good sense in everybody
to help keep this law. The coming board
is doing its best, but the street corner law

newspaper men. are doing their utmost to
prejudice the public against the law. Tho

due difference to Mr.. Nolan or any other
prominent lawyer OF editor. consider any
common English scholar can interpret the
law as correctly as they, and it reads thus:

A High Roller skips Out Owing the Game
$3.50.
Among the outgoing passengers on the
Northern Pacific train night before last,
was r. G. Bryce, whose destination was
Clinton, Iowa. MI. Bryce had been in the
city but short time, but was hail fellow
we'll met with the boys, and in the vernacu-
lar of the street vas "high-roller." He
was fine looking man, faultlessly attired
in the latest tailor-made clothes, with derby
hat and diamond pin. His mustache and
hair were dark, and when out driving he
had the finest rig that could be procured
for money. Az before stated, Mr.. Bryce
was high roller. At faro game he al
ways played the limits and was never known
to play anything else but blue chips, which
are worth $3.50 each, the limit being $3.50
on cases and $25 on the last turn. Night
after night for the lest few weeks. Mr..
Bryce might have been seen at one of the
many gambling resorts on upper Main
street industriously trying to down the fes-
tive tiger. In this he succeeded in meas
ure. In these bouts with the spotted animal
Mr.. Bryce would sometimes pay for his
chips on delivery, and at others, if he hap
pened to lose, the difference would be set
tied at the end Of the game, and at times
Tuesday night, when MI. Bryce lost to
Mateson d Luce the sum of $3.50, which was
to be liquidated on the following day.
In the afternoon Of Wednesday, Mr.. Bryce
hired an elegant team with gold mounted
harness and took drive. He was the
cynodhre of all eyes rs he drove gaily
throughout the various thorou9hfares of
the city and. to the Broadwater hotel.
But towards evening he suddenly concluded
to return east, and going to the Northern
Pacific ticket Office secured two tickets for
Clinton, Iowa; one for himself, the other
for his wife. At 7:35 he was spinning along
towards the rising sun, having neglected to
pay his little indebtedness to sthe spotted
animal. But the proprietors of the estab-
lishment where the money was due, were
soon apprised of his departure and tele-
graphed the sheriff of Park county, at
Livingston. to look out for him and secure
his arrest if possible. The sheriff did as
requested. He boarded the train at Liv-
ingston, but Mr.. Bryce was not to be seen.
The sheriff felt pretty sure, however, that
he was on board, and took passage to Pill
ings. The train had not proceeded far
when Mr.. Bryce smilingly appeared upon
the scene, and was Immediately nabbed by
the officer. He had the alternative of set
ling up or being brought back to Helena,
and choose the former. The bill was set
tied in full and Mr.. Bryce permitted
to proceed on his way. "a poorer.
but, perhaps. wiser man. There is no law
by which a gambling debt can be collected
in Montana, but they seem to be collected
just the same.
