THE SHADOWGRAPHER.

How many residents of this city evor
heard of Rodney Poecockp Many Of the
old-timers will hold up their hands, but
who of the new-tiineis ever heard OF himr
He died years ago in a little cabin where
the Bailey block now stands. He was the
first man buried in the cemetery which is
now part Of the high school grounds. Part
of his name, at least, will go down in the
history OF Helena for Rodney street was
named after him.

Yesterday l met a wealthy gentleman Of
this city who is fond OF "fads." One of his
latest is the Farmers alliance question,
which has been giving thorough study. He
inds mady very interesting phases in the
objects of the party which is 80 Grestly ridi-
culed these days. Among other things he
said:
Mason Green, q Bellamyite from Massa-
| chusetts, who was in the convention of po-
| litical nondescripts that launched the third
or peoples party at Cincinnati q fortnight
ago, is we'll pleased with the result, which
he says was a victory for the cravatless; the
would be leaders were sent to the rear and
the masses won the day. OF the 407 dele
gates from Kansas, according to Mr.. Green,
only sixteen wore neckties or cravats, and
not all of the other 391 concealed the alb
sence of neckwear behind the Senator

tie incident recalled to my friends mind a
conversation he had in the summer Of 1888
with Joaquin Miller, ''the poet OF the
Sierras.". Continuing, he added: ut was
in the cabin of the latter, on q mountain
side overlooking the city of Oakland and
the bay of San Francisco. Pointing to a
| photograph tackled upon the wall the poet
said in the grandiloquent n that is
characteristic of him: There is the
portrait of a giant among men
IAN I~sraelite indeed in whom there is no
guile That, sir, is John p. Irish. the most
thoroughly democratic man and the best
fellow living. Mr.. Irish, sir, never wears a
necktie, he scorns to wear a necktie." And
sure enough, the photograph of the dis
tinguished orator and brilliant writer
showed beneath his splendid head a Byron
collar but no sign of tie or cravat. Thu
newspaper of which MIR. Irish was then the
editor, the Alta California, suspended
publication last week, and it is possible
that if the peoples party can overcome his
lifelong affection for the party of Jefferson
and of Jackson Mr.. Irish might accept a
nomination for the presidency at its hands;
and with Irish, of California, for president,
and Jere Simpson, of Medicine Lodge, for
vice-president, the platform would be made
to hand-"No cravats and no socks"

Why the CouceaIuent?

Mr.. EDITOR. For some reason
best known to the Judges of the
Supreme Court, in giving their
opinions in the Cabinet matter, the
majority have disregarded prece-
dent, and have not signed their
reply.
This is not judgment of the
Court, but a matter of their indi-
vidual opinions. Are they, or is
any one of them, ashamed of their
or his part in the matter?
In judgments even, where ma
jority decide cases, the name of the
dissenting justice is always given.
And generally he states his grounds
of dissent.
The public are entitled to full
and frank action in this matter.
Evasion and Sinking of respon-
sibility should be beneath the dig
nifty of a judge of the Supreme
Court. CITIZEN.

The Supreme Courts Decision.

The Supreme Courts Decision.
As there seems to be some confu-
sion in the mind of the public in
regard to the matter of the opinion
of the Justices of the Supreme Court
on the Cabinet question the following
statement is given:
g On the 10Th instant, the Cabinet
of His late Majesty sent request to
the Justices of the Supreme Court
for an opinion upon the question
whether the Queen was authorized
by the Constitution to request their
designations and was free to appoint
a new Cabinet
lon the 17th the Cabinet asked
the Justices to suspend their reply
until they should be notified to pro-
coed with it. In the forenoon of
Wednesday, the 25th, the Cabinet
asked the Justices to proceed with
the consideration of the question.
At about 2;30 P. NJ. the opinion of
the Justices was handed to the At
torney General, and thereupon the
Cabinet sent in their designations to
the Queen, who then appointed and
commissioned new Cabinet, as fol-
lows:
Hon. Samuel Parker, Minister of
Foreign Affairs;
Hon. H. a. Widemann, Minister
of Finance;
Hon. c. N. Spencer, Minister of
the Interior;

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1891-02-27

The first difference is the change
from "the Kings Cabinet to "the
Cabinet" One was literally I" the
Kings" responsible to him. The
other is the peoples" responsible
to the Legislature.
The distinction is so radical and
marked, that the meaning cannot
be mistaken.
Under the old Constitution the
Minister'S held office during His
Majesty's pleasure; under the
new one they "shall be removed
by him only upon vote of want of
oOnfidepce"
That the Judges could not per-
ceive the fundamental difference in
the provisions, and plain intent, of
the present Constitution, is almost
past understanding.

Jews in H3ssia Making Money by Re-
comi14 Christians Frequently.
LoNDoN, March 27.--A dispatch from
St. Peters turg tells of new industry
which Is acquiring considerable devel-
oplnent III russia. 1t is that of CONVEX
sion. iii 1tpears that the government,
not being Filling to trust only the theo-
logical arr kments and penal laws, offers
a reward "a all Jews who become Chris
tians. The consequence is that num-
Der OF Jewk, deprived by severe enforce
ment of thu DEGREES against their race
of the opIprtunity to make an honest
living, have entered in the practice Of
being converted at regular intervals, and
receiving bach time the government
bounty OF l5 roubles. One Hebrew
named Schwartzkopf, has been at last
detected 4ter seven different conver-
sions, in ad many different localities. 1t
happened that the Russian priest to
whom he made known his desire for the
seventh tine, for baptism and the 10
roubles. h&f been recently transferred
from Elix4 4bethgrad, where the convert
had been recently baptlsed and re-
warded or5y about two months before.
Consequen9ly Schwartzkopf will under
go no n1of9 conversions for the present,
as the polite have him In hand. A num-
ber of similar instances have been re-
ported, and as result the religious au-
thorities have been instructed not to pay
the reward unless they have investi-
gated the antecedents of the convert.
