OUR Trenton neighbor next amused
itself by taking a fall out of the poll
tax. The refusal of the Assembly to
strike the poll tax from the new tax
bill, provokes it to say that the man
who is ''hedged about with all the
intelligent and solicitous protection
of government, ought to be willing to
pay for the small pittance of dollar
a year.
The State Gazette does not seem to
understand that the discussion on the
question of inflicting poll tax on the
people does not so much concern the
thing in the abstract as in the applica
tion. The principle of the poll tax is
one thing, but the more immediate
concern is with the problem whether,
il it be authorized, it can be uniformly
collected. 1t is Utopian to talk about
doing anything, however wise it
may be when experience may show
that it can't be done. If the State
Gazette will only throwa little light.
now, on that part of the problem, 1t
will contribute something to the final
determination of the question whether
it shall be attempted.

Three Remarkable Women.

Moreover, where women find them
selves possessed of exceptional ability
in any one line of science, motherhood
need not necessarily deprive them of
continuing their interest or progress
in that line.
Laura Bassi. for thirty years occupy
ing the chair of professor OF physics at
Bologna University, was only twenty
one years of age when she was called
to it, and she married and became the
mother of twelve children without in
terruption of her university duties.
Her home, where she carried on many
scientific experiments, was beautiful
in its orderliness, and was the resort
of the lovers of leaning.
Mrs. Somerville was the mother of
five children by two marriages, yet
found time for study and writing her
famous works on astronomy. Har-
riet Martineau writes of her home
life:-"It was delightful to see her,
always dressed and thoroughly wo-
manly in her conversation and man
ners, while unconscious of any peculi-
arity in her pursuits. 1t was delight
| full TO go to tea at her house in Chel-
sea and find everything in order and
| beauty-the walls hung with fine
drawings, her music in the corner,
and her tea table spread with good

Mr.. sfcAlIistsr and New York Society.
The contempt in which aristocraeies
have always neld commercialized So
ciety is natural, and it is natural that
such a society should always try to
escape from itself by reverting to the
ideals OF aristocracy; this was the way
of coinmercialiZed society in Venice
and in Florence; and it is none the
more dignified in New York for that
reason. 1t is always and everywhere
amusing to see a plutocracy trying
TO turn into an aristocraey, and
this is what Mr. McAllister shows
us, and with no apparent sense of its
eomicality. These men who have had no
ideal but to get more and more
money, these women who have no
ideal but TO spend more and more,
are necessarily ridiculous iii the trans
formation act; but il is not 5Ir. Nc

has merely shown them so. He did

ALWAYS Wrong.

The editorial columns of the State
Gazette must have afforded endless
amusement to the thoughtful among
its readers this morning. 1t is brim-
full OF absurdities, misfit conceptions,
and general cussedness. 1t begins by
sailing into the State Police bill IN this
reckless fashion,
The bill providing for a estate Police" force,
II passed would seem to make unnecessary the
continued existence Of the National Guard.
The principal. it may be sail about the only
object Of the maintenance OF a militia force by
the State, is to aid the civil authorities In sup
pressing breaches Of the peace, turmoil, riot or
resistance to process
What an insult to the National
Guard these few lines expressl What
bearer OF the State arms is there who
will suffer himself to believe that his
National Guard commission makes
only a policeman of him? The insti-
tuition of the National Guard was
prompted by higher considerations.
Its field of duty is a nobler one
than this which the State Gazette
marks out The national guardsman
is his country's always ready defender
against the invasion of foreign foes.
He is not put under arms to shoot
down his friend and neighbor at
home, but to be prepared in an emer-
gency to maintain the dignity of his
land among the nations of the earth.
But here-and all the Republican
GROWERS against the State police bill
are there too-he is degraded to the
rank of mere policeman; an arbiter
in little street affrays; a soldier among
the rabble. Not a National Guards
man in the Commonwealth but will
resent this affront to his public posi-
ton.
The bill, in principle, was prompted
by the wisest conservatism. Assum-
ing that it was suggested by such an
emergency as that which the besieging
of the mills at Kearney gave rise to.
what would have been the effect Of
placing the little town under martial
law? 1t would but have stirred up
popular excitements and resent
ments, and the little street row
that was easily suppressed with few
efficient policemen, might have been
famed into the proportions of civil
war. The Governor can safely be
trusted with the discretion as to
which power of the State-the police
or the military-to apply to in ex-
elements that arise In the future, and
the bill that enables him to find the
easiest way of settling such disturb
ance and to enforce it is one that
must be commended on all hands.

The Democratic bosses are working hard on
the Congressional and Legislative redistricting
bills There is only one question under consid-
eration-how TO dlsfrancnise many RepubI IL
cans as possible.
Well, nowl The old time Horseshoe
has evidently haunted the editors
midnight dream with night mares of
pending retaliation. 1t used to be
the proud boast of the Republican
schemers that it was necessary for the
Democrats to carry the State by
$1,000 majority on the general ticket
to secure a Democratic Assem-
bly, under their redistricting act.
Well, it may be assumed that
that will not be the case when
the new bills that are to be passed
this winter shall have received the
Governors sign manual. They will
probably enable the Democratic ma
jority of the State to reflect itself in
a Democratic House of Assembly Just
as efficiently as it may be reflected in
the election for State officers. The
Republicans will be accorded their
fair representation of course; but
they will not be able to get any more
than their fair representation. 1t is
probably that view of the matter that
is disturbing the midnight musings of
Editor Clark.

From present appearances Montana will

as her position as a mineral producer would
warrant. Gov. Toole was asked to appoin,
ton delegates at large for tho state, which
he did. Five Of those named have accepted
and agreed to attend the congress, as fol-
lows: ]. X. Clark, Butte; Superintendent
Risque, of the Bi-Metallic; DIR. Mussigbrod,

as delegates at large by the executive COM
mittee of the Denver mining exchange.
This comprises the list of Montana dele

tary Walker, of tho board Of trade, have
been appointed a committee to select dele
gates from the board Of trade. So far they

Strike In the California Mine

The California Mining company have
been taking out and shipping ore to the
Cumberland smelter. says the Castle Tri-
bune, and for that purpose they have sum-
a Wine on the ore vein at tho end of tho
drift on the ninety-fve foot level, and when
the woikmen were down about twenty-five
feet, following this ore. with a porphyry
wall on one side and limestone on the other.
they struck a rich vein of hard gray carbon
Donate, with punches Of galena through it.
Between this vein and the one the work
men have followed down there is iron or a
low grade of carbonate ore. and the indica-
tions now are that it will with a little more
depth all turn into carbonate ore, and this
agrees with the opinion of mining men who
have visited this mine. If this should prove
true, the California will be the most won
derful MINI in this district.

Mines Near Mullen.

Recent assays of ore from the Military
group of mines on tho divide between Null
Ian and Burke, show q total of from $171 to
$1,000 per ton, says the Mullan Tribune.
The ore contains native or psaeook copper
in considerable quantities, and carries from
IS to $40 in gold per ton. The specimens
assayed were taken but a few feet from
below the sarface.
Messrs Finch and Campbell are still at
work on the grade for q fume from the
Pioneer Sampling works to Shields ranch
at Osburn. 1t was the original int&tion
of these gentlemen to erect the Union mill
at Osburn, but as no satisfactory rates
could be made with the railways for that
point they decided to place the mill at the
junction of Canyon Greek and the South
Fork, and convenient to both railways.
The trouble between the railroads over
the carrying of the ore from the Union
mine at Burke to the concentrator at Wal
lace has been satisfactorily adjusted, and
the mill will soon be running full blast.
The Gold Hunter is now netting its
owners no less than $4,000 per month,
which places it near the head of the list of
Coeur d'Alene bonanzas.
