III COMMITTEES.

Democrats ought not to be surprised
at the handiwOrk of Lieutenant-tiOv
Richards n framing senate com
mittees. The original proposition was
to organize the senate by concession,
and to that end the democrats had a
right to demand certain chairmanships.
They did not do this, they trusted Rick
ards they trusted the wrong man, just
an he was mistakenly trusted long
enough by his own partisans i'm a posi-
ton that awakened his abnormal self
esteem and cost the west side a repub-
lican% senatorial candidate.
of course. these committee chairman
ships are distributed on a plan that is
grossly unfair. especially when the "
balance of parties is taken into account;
to say nothing of the broader considera-
tiOns involving wise public policy
which ought to prompt my presiding
office in shaping committees. Think
of "a Montana senate that makes "a
Beaverhead man the chairman OF the
committee on mines and mining, Fisher
the head Of the committee on labor and
capitalized w h great republic
with the DAWSON county senator for
associate. while Deer Lodge county gets
the craftsmanship of libraries!
With any other man than Richards
i'm the chair. this arrangement of COM
mittees would astOund the state: but
Richards cannot surprise us. 1t is not
our ambition to say anything funny
about the Lieutenant Governor. Above
all, his conduct cannot tempt the
STANDARD to depart from the strict
proprieties i'm anything it may remark
At the same time, we declare it to be
our belief that hereafter the fame of
this Lieutenant Governor will rest
chiefly OF his achievement i'm meeting
the severe conditions imposed by
Brown of Beaverhead, through the ac-
tivity of that end of his spine where
his brain is said to abound.

On the subject the Inter Mountain

THAT BUILDING.

The STANDARD is urging Butte to
strike out for u federal building. The
Miner approves the plan but it suspects
the STANDARDS motives. This suspi-
cion is not clearly revealed, except i'm
IA line which the Miner uses to say that.
III Butte doesn't want "a federal build
ing, Anaconda would take il.
There il no room for motives i'm this
business, except those that are a
parent to everybody and, on that score.
h STANDARD wishes to make itself
clearly understood. This newspaper
and this town would like to see Mon
tana, west side, get a government
building. To this end, one city must
he agreed upon and il must have the
outspoken, cordial support of west-side
people. by virtue of it's size. wealth
and Importance. Butte is entitled to be
considered as the leading claimant.
We have distinctly said that Anaconda
would be glad to fight for the building.
but We have just rs distinctly fore
told that, were this city to
set up any claim, people in Silver bow.
who entertain "A prejudice toward us
which this town does not reciprocate,
would fight Anaconda all on the quiet,

west side. Any hog will get n the
trough. feet and all. il 1t is permitted to
do it "a Helena il always permitted.
In any strong effort to secure the APP
preparation for a government building
this city will De thoroughly loyal to
Butte, but that city must reveal "a de-
sire for the appropriation and this must
be backed by the energetic action that
always secures appropriations of the
sort. If Butte thinks the gam not
worth the candle. then this city will
agree to join hands with Butte in sup
port Of Missoula, il that plan COM
mends itself to our Silver Bow neigh
bors. Our own judgment is that Butte
is the city to win with, and its people
ought to bestir themselves.
One city or another will get a build
ing very soon. The Miner says that
Congressman Carter will ask an appro-
priation i'm behalf of Butte, but that he
viii 90 confuse the application with ad-
verse conditions that Butte will be
sure to lose. We know nothing about
that, we never before heard of the bill
or its stipulations. But the Miner
pins it's faith on what Mr.. Clark and
Major Maginnis might do. Both gen.
tlemen could be helpful. but they will
be pretty busy with political building

The action of the legislature of South
Dakota Wednesday in stopping all
business to listen to a prayer by the
chaplain al II occasion of the passage
of the first bill by that body was as
noble and dignified as it was unusua
i'm American Legislative assemblies.
With such "a precedent before him we
shall lot be surprised tn see Brother
Richards calling a halt i'm the proceed
ings of the senate some day to offer
prayer over his rulings, particularly
his decision as to what constitutes a
majority of sixteen. To be sure the
conditions will not be the same as i'm
the legislature of South Dakota, whose
business is conducted i'm the fear of
God and i'm accordance with the laws of
the land. But there Is all the more
reason why Brother Richards should
pray.

Thus far two republicans mt Helena
have introduced bills which. assuming

in fact destroy all the merit there is i'm

hastened to enter it's protest against the
action of these republicans. Their
tinkering with he measure ought not
to be tolerated. The changes they pro-
pose are altogether too radical. This
state has no yet given the Australian
plan a thorough test.

Alderman Donohue, of wilkesharrc

Writing from Paris, Blowitz, the London

One woman, says am exchange. has
made the silk gowns of the Justices of the

Kansas people at any rate know when

Critics generally are noticing the strik-

Whittier and the recent poems of Tenny-

The REAL POlNI.

In "a state convention of New York
republicans, several years y when a
faction i'm the party was fighting Ros-
O Conkling tooth and nail, George
William Curtis introduced u memOra-
BILE speech by saying that .plain words
are the best" The sentence became
famous. II is directly applicable to the
condition of affairs in and about the
police court i'm Butte which, by the
scandal attached to il has become worse
than a burlesque, and which will get
the censure il richly merits, if the in
vestigatiOn undertaken by the city
council is prosecuted i'm good faith.
The STANDARD started this agita-
ton m ii is not in unfair pursuit of

duty and dignity of his position, ne

These are the plain words; they are
the best because they point to an open
road leading to a remedy which Butte
must apply without fear if il proposes
that its court be respected or its police
service be decent
