We have been patiently awaiting fur
Their calculation of the Journals bril-
liant solution of the labor and silver
problems. As the miners Of the state
have not accepted the suggestion to
take lower wages the Feasibility OF the
scheme has not been made wholly clear.
Now that the Blue Bird, of Butte, has
been forced to close down, throwing $50
men out Of employment, we may expect
to see the proposition endorsed with
that desperate energy always displayed
by our contemporary when it falls in a
hole and tries to crawl out without be-
ing seen. 1t is possible, however, that
a considerable friend possessing average
intelligence has explained the details Of
the blunder to the journal.

time the members have played III Eub!ic,
and tho selections wate IA near perfect as
best features of the entertainments. Miss

10 TEST THE [l, LAW.
The Constitutionnlity of an Important
Statute to Be Passed Upon.

The Constitutionnlity of an Important
Statute to Be Passed Upon.
Peter Baum. the Great Falls attorney, is
going to test the constitutionality of the
statute relative to the filing of informa-
tons. Charles Carlson, of Great Falls,
against whom the Cascade county district
attorney filed an information for adultery,
was arraigned in the district court at the
Falls the other day. His attorney waived
a hearing and asked for further time to
take the necessary proceedings to test the
legality of the statutes OH that point. Mr..
Baum claims that the law in Montana
authorizing the county attorney to file an
information against Carlson in this par
ticuler case upon information and belief
without first granting q hearing is uncon-
s%titutional. He alleges that this law de-
prives a person charged with crime Of a
speedy heating which the constitution of
the United States says shall be granted to
every one who is accused. The court
granted Mr.. Baum until Thursday to pre-
pare his argument on the question. It will
probably be eventually carried to the su-
premB court.

Has Recovered Them.
1t will be remembered that about the LIST

details of a stage hold-up i'll Idaho, in
which the principal sufferer was said to be
L. L. Huntley, q Chicago drummer. Hunt
ley advertised his loss, offering a reward of
$1,000 for their recovery. Now a story
comes from Portland to the effect that the
stage robbers, seeing the advertisement,
wrote to Huntley's brother, who regides in
Centralia, Wash, Offering to return the
stolen property if he would not PROSECUTE
them and would insert the following adver-
tisement in the OreRonian: "Wantod-
$4,000 exchange. Address Huntley, care of
Oregonian." Huntley inserted the adyer-
tisement as- requested. and sundny last a
man came to his room at the Portland hotel
and delivered the stolen property to its
owner.
