1.-The melo-dramatic event of the season, +"
is the way Howard P. Taylors spectacular
production, 1.-The Pulse OF New York" is
billed at the Bijou Theater where it opens
Monday afternoon. 1t is panoramic melo-
drama in four acts and II scenes. The play
is apparently one of those melodramas that
deal with the everyday life OF New York,
and contain abundant excuse for the intro
duction of scenic and mechanical effects of
q startling character. 1t is said that no ex-
pensc has been spared to make it attra ctive,
and that the stage pictures whicE it contains
are wonderfully realistic. The use of superla-
tives in the description OF plays of this sort
is to be expected, but from all accounts "The
Pulse of New York is quite up to the COM
mon melodramatic standard. The cast is
headed by Miss Oracle Emmet and contains
Miss Cora Macy, Irene Lawrence, Jennie
Elberts, Mr.. j. ii. Ferris, Mr.. Walter Jones'
George Bates, Hugh Ford. Ralph Dorman,
Master George Elliott and other fayorite
and well-known players
The usual natinees will be given during
this engagement on Wednesday and Satur-
day; also special Decoration Day matinee
on Monday afternoon.

THAT RAILROAD TAXATION.

1t is really alarming to note the sever,
quietness of the republican press and al
SO of the republican state officials on the
subject of the Northern Pacific railroad
taxation. This paper has shown that
the board of equalization. which is com
posed of four republicans and one demo
crat, taxed all the railroads in the state
except the Northern Pacihr at the rate
of $1,000 mile. and made the rate OF
that road $500 mile.
Perhaps Attorney General Haskell
will rise and explain this matter 1t
would relieve the public mind and re-
move AN imputation from him that he
has been using his office for the benefit
of that corporation.
Or it may be that Secretary Of State
itotwitt might take time from his abors
to give the people little information on
this subject. He might show the tax
payers how great an advantage il is to
them to pay one-half the taxes of the
Northern Pacific railroad company. A
little information on this subject from
Mr.. Rotwitt would be most welcome.
If neither of these gentlemen will
speak, perchance Mr. State Auditor Ken
ney might break this tomb-like silence
and throw little light on subject
which is affecting the revenues Of every
taxpayer in the state. Mr.. Kenney doubt
less knows all about this matter. and it
would be most propepthing for him to
tell the public about It.
Mr. State Treasurer Hickman is too
much Of casuist to hcfp the people to
understand this remarkable case. He
has stated at various points in Montana
that the Northern Pacific already pays
more taxes than anv other railroad in
the state. but carefully refrained from
saying anything about the special rate
of tares granted to this pet company 10y

members of the state board

ACCORDING to Colonel Sanders it is an
objectionable sin to be dlscontented with
republican rule. lie is probably the
most lntoerant man known In politics
In the United States. with the cXcep-
tion Of his esteemed relative. the dis
tinCuished editor and manager of the
Great Falls Leader The latter thinks
1t is his duty to correct and admonish
any republican ne finds reading demo-
cratic newspaper and even to snatch
such paper with violence from the
hands Of such republican. But the
colonel goes further than this. He SAYS
that the peoples party is composed of
"idlers. men in debt. sore heads. ghost
dancers. and people fitted for the cave
of Adullum. and so on. The colonel's de-
nunclations Of this party covers the
whole vocabulary of abusive. cantanker.
Gus and vltuperative epithets. The de-
light he seemed to take in cOniuring up
the most incomprehcnsibe vcrbiage Of
the dictionary to express his loathing,
was III the extreme puerile and disgust
ing. But after all it was quite in keep
ing with the spirit of the republican
party which he So ably represents. and
which has no tolerance for ANYBODY out
side its fold.
