AS TO FRIDAY NIGHT.

our good contemporary, the Butte
Inter Nounfdin, is certainly in the
wrong when il insists that the .Juch
opera company ought to prefer william
Tell" as originally announced, to the
opera of der FreischutZ." which has
been substituted for Friday evenings
entertainment. Not hat the STAND
ARD had anything whatever to do with
the change that has been announced;
OH the contrary, any bill decreed by the
management is acceptable. At the
same time. we are positive that the
change that puts weber's magnificent
creation in the place of Rossini's
"William Tell" will surely please every
patron of Butte's inviting opera season.
There is not i'm ROssini's
opera n role that gives Juch
the slightest opportunity. She is
the bright particular star in the
company that bears her name and the
audiences in Butte will wish most of
all to hear her in a leading part. "Wil-
liam Tell has two extremely brilliant
airs with which the American public
is familiar, but the suitable mounting
of the opera is an undertaking next to
impossible for its successful accom-
plishment Oh the stage of the opera
house in Butte.
More than this. Weber's magnificent
creation is hardly less than IN inspira-
ton. From him come the scores of
"DberOn" and "E~uryanthe." The opera
i'm question is distinctly "a masterpiece,
its overture unfolding melodies that
will surely captivate all who listen.
The aria that begins thus is one of the
operas man beauties.

Life in Hidalgo county, Texas, has
its advantages as well as its drawbacks.
There are no long. tedious delays in the

THE PROPOSED EXTENSION.

Almost without exception n daily
newspapers of Montana have tried to
give the Union Pacific railroad a
friendly lift in n matter of the pro-
posed refunding bill. The STANDARD
has recited the outline of the plan
which, in general terms. provides that
the railroad hall be allowed an extern
sion of fifty wears in which to pay to
the government Of the United States
an Indebtedness which will Dc found to
moun to about S~5l.OOO.OOO. the prin-
cipal of which falls due six years hence.
The plan is to secure the general gov
eminent by giving to it a mortgage
covering the lateral lines and branches
of the road in addition to the security
which it already holds OF the main
ine and its equipment between Omaha
and Ogden.
1t is clear enough hat Montana is
out OF sympathy with the objections to
the proposed refunding that come from
newspapers representing the country
near the eastern terminus OF the Union
Pacific. There may be merit i'm the
fight which these people are making on
the Union Paciiic-doubtless they have
their grievance, yet Montana cannot be

A Rat Swallowed Diamond.

This story of the loss of q diamond

was missing from the window when he

not find the diamond. Afterwards a
neighbor, talking to the pawnbroker. in

MILO Is

What is there about this Sweeny live
stock bill? Who is Sweeny, and what
is he trying to do? His bill appears to
have frightened some good people i'm
Montana and the members of b board
of trade in Helena have taken action
regarding 1t.
II would be more than surprising
were the Sweeny bin to become law.
Its aim In tn levy a tax of n dollar n
head on all live stock grazing on the
public domain. If the bill were to be-
come law, quite one half of the cattle
i'm Montana would be brought within
the scope of a tax for which there is
neither warrant nor need. The Helena
Journal puts the figures relating to the
question in a sentence, saying that,
there are 5is,322 head of cattle in
Montana, and the tax upon n half
this number would AMOUNT to S274, i6l
per annum. To fitch this amount from
the stock raisers would he an outrage,
especially when no practical effOr; Is
made by the government to irrigate the
public domain SO that it may he util-
lied for other purposes"
We do not imagine that the cattle
interests in Montana need feel in my
way disturbed over this bill. 1t will
never become law. Protests from
boards of trade are all well enough, yet
they are hardly needed. The bill will
surely kill itself. 1t was III to die in

it was devised by some clever congress

purpose of making n constituency

peril; whereas, i'm truth, there's not the
slightest danger. Little deals Of this
sort are stock in trade with congress
