FIXING FOR A CONFERENCE.

by a vote of six to five, the house
committee on coinage refused to con-
cur i'm the senate amendments 10 the
silver bill, and the fight goes on. OF
the six members who voted not to con
cur, five were republicans, the sixth vote
being that of Mr.. Wilcox, democrat, of
Connecticut.
IL goes without saying that Speaker
Reed, knowing his strength, will per-
nit i'm the house no departure from the
action reported by the committee on
coinage. We may, therefore, expect a
conference committee which will begin
the effort for compromise and, since
the house will be compelled to come
more than half way i'm an effort to
meet the senate, there is no telling
what the end is to be. 1t will be re-
membered that, i'm the senate, Mr..
Plumb's substitute, which is the meas
ure i'm possession of the house, re-
ceived a handsome majority-the vote
i'm its favor was 45 to %. The STAND
ARDS discerning correspondent in
Washington has lately wired thai, since

taken, the measure has lost nothing OF
its strength but, oil the contrary, it has
made evident gains among the sen
ators.
In this situation, the concession.
must come largely from the house, and
any committee appointed by thu
speaker to confer with a senate com
mittee will find itself forced to yield 9
good deal of ground i'm order to reacl
the point where agreement will bt
found possible.
This mornings meagre report Of
what was said in the house yesterday
indicates that the foremost advocates
of free coinage are not expecting mucl
but are doing their best to get all the,

roundings.

CHINESE %npocIoRS.n

During the past few years Chinese
doctors have been the rage in many
western cities, and their accumulations
of silver and gold have been such as TO
put American physicians to shame.
Why pill manufacturers from the ilow-
cry kingdom should flourish in places
where the very name of Chinaman is u
theme of adherence is one of the
things difficult of comprehension, ex.
cept upon the theory that "A majority of
people prefer being humbugged as a
matter of choice. The arrest and ex-
animation Of DIR. Gun Wa In Milwau-
kee have revealed some curious facts
i'm connection with the Chinese doctor
business. Yet they are facts which
any intelligent man might have sur
missed.
Gun Wa was formerly known to his
fellow men as Jim Lee. lie changed
his name at the solicitation of an
American fakir who picked him up in

Many of the STANDARDS good con
temporaries find in its columns much
TO commend il to public favor. For
instance, the Virginia City Wadisonian
puts a whole column in a pithy sen
tence when il says, Notwithstanding
the warfare which the Butte dailies are
waging against the STANDARD, it is
forging ahead and is fast becoming a
more thorough and reliable gatherer of
Butte news than any of the home pa
pers." In q sentence still briefer our
prosperous Choteau contemporary, the
Montanidn, pays the STANDARD the
highest of compliments by saying:
"Butte's best newspaper Is published ut
Anaconda, twenty odd miles away"
Pleasant words of this sort are the
more welcome for the reason that the
STANDARD as well rs the Butte public
knows that they are an exact statement
of the truth.

PORTABLE ELECTRIC LIGHTS.

The day is at hand when every man
is to be his W electric light plant. A
storage battery has been prepared for
transportation i'm the hip pocket, and
by means of wires which are TO be
strung up the back, over the shoulders
and down through a convenient button
hole In the waistcoat, the light may be
turned on and off at pleasure. The
entire apparatus, il is said, weighs only
one and one-half pounds, and as the
most bulky part of the machine is
situated in an out-of-the-w way place no
Inconvenience is experienced in carry
ing il around.
The only %precaution necessary for
gentlemen tn take is to avoid sudden
collisions with other g~entlemen's feet.
A well-directed kick would be liable
seriously To impair the brilliancy and
steadiness of the electric light and
possibly to ~extinguish il altogether. A
particularly vigorous and vicious kick
might even have the effect of stirring
up the electricity in such a way AS 10
e~lectrocute the person kicked "a In
kemmler. IL seems highly essential
therefore that during personal en-
counters, thunder showers, icy side,
walks and other disturbances of nature
similar in character, gentlemen should
take OFF their electric light plants and
leave them at home.
II may not seem clear ut first glance
how ladies are 10 wear the valuable in
vention, but a moments consideration
will show that their apparel is con
structed, rs il were, purposely for the
plant. The practical utility of the
hustle can no longer be questioned for
it is better adapted for the purposes re-
CURED than any hip pocket possibly
can be. II is not to be expected that
the new machines will be popular with
the young of either sex, but TO the old
folks who may wish to steal into the
parlor at II o'clock at night Oh tip-toe
and see the condition of things it will
be invaluable.

Office, hung out a single with the in
scription Gun Wa" In glittering brass,
and thus firmly established the Mon
golian In the medical profession. The
enterprising fakir then took into the
scheme a young American, who had
just graduated from a medical college,
and who agreed to act in the capacity
of interpreter to Jim Lee, alias Gun
Wa. This young man after listening
to a patient would talk a little hog
Latin to the Chinaman, who In turn
would look wise and jabber back in his
native tongue. Then the young fellow,
telling the patient whatever he took a
notion to, would proceed to put up a
prescription according to his own ideas,
while the manager would come in and
pocket a fifty dollar fee. The concern
did a smashing business for many
weeks, and probably fairly represents
the average Chinese doctors Office as
found in America. 1t is probably the
most remunerative fake of the day.

Representative Wilson Of West Vir-
ginia declines the f~lattering offer of the
presidency of the University of Mis-.
souri, and will again stand for congress
in his district. Mr.. Wilson's determi-
nation. may or may not have been af-
fected by the announcement that
Stephen Ii. Elkins will receive the re-
publican nomination from the same
district. That he will put the arch
boodler to sleep is a foregone conclu-
sion. There are several Wilson's in the
house, and some of them might easily
be spared for the presidency of ed1ca-
tional or other institutions, but Wilson
of West Virginia besides being a gen.
tleman and a scholar is a democrat, a
friend of silver and a valuable all
around representative whom congress
can i'll afford to lose.

THAT FATAL VOTE,

The STANDARD referred yesterday
to Mr.. Carriers vote for Speaker Reed
in order to show where the Montana
members trouble began andhow easily
he might have kept out of it. The
Inter Mountain tells us that, before
taking up with Reed, Mr.. Carter
sounded Mckinley, Burroughs and
Cannon as to their views about silver,
his inquiries leading him TO give his
support to Reed.
Mr.. Mckinley was in shape to be
made Mr.. Reeds chief rival in the
speakership contest-the western vote
could have sent him To the front. lie
vas and is a better friend To silver than
ever Reed could claim TO be. lie has
not let his light shine very con
spicuously of late, IL is true-no promi-
nent eastern republican In the house of
representatives has: but Mr.. Mckinley
was always a consistent advocate of
the double standard and has been in
the past more friendly 10 the silver
interest by word and deed than Reed
ever was. The notorious fact of Mr..
Reeds persistent hostility To silver was
proclaimed in this state before Con
gresham Carter left Helena for Wash
ington.
We suppose that our evening con.
temporary in Butte will agree with the
STANDARD when IL asserts that
Speaker Reed has been the most in.
~fiuential as well as the most relentless
enemy in the house OF representatives
that silver has had to face. III he per

do over again, he never would give his
vote to Reed for speaker, not even
with q committee craftsmanship In
sight. Montana has forgotten all
about Mr.. Carriers chairmanship-it
didn't amount to much after all, but
the presence of an u~nfriendly repub-
lican i'm the speakers chair Is always
Extensively before the eyes Of our peo-
pie.
The STANDARD regrets the course
pursued by Mr.. Carter In that he un-
Willingly put power into the hands of
silver's enemy. His W vote was, OF
course, of relatively small account since
that of itself, had IL been given to an
other candidate, would not have de-
feated Reed. But Mr.. Carter was N
of the busy men I'm Washington when
the speakership contest was up. Mainly
through his effort, the western vote
was secured for Reed, and they all
told us last December that the western
vote settled the controversy. The re-
suit is that Mr.. Carter has been In hot
water since the moment when legisla-
ton began. The treasury department
bowed him out when he tried to take
care of lead, and the member himself
admits that on the floor of the house
lead had its bitterest foes among the
republicans and was finally saved by
the help of democrats.
Finally, we suppose that the Inter
Mountain will agree with the STAND

dered the state as well as for every eff

lie voted for Reed and he doubtless
regrets IL. Party considerations and
the fact of his craftsmanship prompted
him to dodge a very important vote
when the silver debate opened; we war
rant that, i'm the light of a fortnight's
experience, he would vote rather than
dodge IL he had IL TO do over again.
The fact is that when Mr.. Carter
voted for Reed he voluntarily put him
self under the domination of a very
hard master. The trials that have en-
compassed him give him the best sort
of title TO the recognition of his party,
which will be basely u%ngrateful il his
efforts are not recognized i'm q cordial
denomination. II is no longer a secret
