Kern aud san Luis Obispo counties. After
be became a citizen he secured more land.
Because he farmed the land the cattIemen
grew jealous Of hi success. One Of them
named Allen, who was wOrsted by the
young Britain in a law suit charged LoOs-
more with killing a steer and caused his
arrest for grand larceny.
Loosmore was convicted by a jury of
caJtemen and last Aprl sent 10 San Quen-

The conviction Of Mr.. Deacon for the
murder of his wife's paramour at Nice,
followed by a sentence Of oDe years i'm
prisonment for the crime, ought to CON-
bine sufficient reasons for another trial.
He was either guilty Of cold blooded
murder or the homicide was justiiable;
he should have been sentenced to death
or acquitted. THE facts in the case were
not denied. Deacon had long been sus-
picious of intimacy between his wife, who
was the mother of three children, and NJ.
Abeille, a useless French rake. One
evening Deacon went to his room in a
hotel at Nice and found Abeil]e and his
wife in f1agrante dellctu. He immedi-
ately procured a revolver and returning
fired three shots at the Frenchman, kill
ing him. The only question to be raised
in court Is whether Deacon was justified
in the act. In America he would have
been acquitted in very short order, but
in France such affairs are regarded in a
different light. The jury apparently
thought Deacon had reason to shoot
Abeille, but did not wish to establish a
precedent for affairs Of that sort. An
acquittal might terrify half the society
men of Paris. French justice on this
line is seemingly as loose as the French
code of morals.

PERSONS desiring to offer sites for the
new military post should lose no time
in getting their propositions before the
committee of citizens having the matter
in charge. The appointment Of the mil
itary commission to select a site may be
looked for any day and tie offers should
be in shape for consideration when it
arrives. The post will be a great and
permanent benefit and spectators who
contemplate making money out of their
more public spirited fellow citizens will
get no show. There is more than one
available site and it will not be neces-
sary to pay fancy prices. This is a point
that should not be lost sight of.

IT looks as though the democrats
would sweep Illinois this year as they
swept Wisconsin two years ago, by the
aid Of the Lutheran vote. Gov. Fifer,
when in Chicago the other day, was in
formed by republican politicians that
he had apparently lost the 10000
Lutheran votes in Cook county hope
lessly. Judge Altgeld, the democratic
nominee for governor, is entirely &C.
ceptable to the Lutherans and will get
very nearly their solid vote. Gov. Peck,
OF Wisconsin, who was elected in 1890
by a majority of 10000 or the school
issue, predicts Altgeld's election by
$4,000 majority.

THE view Of the Pioneer Press that
the political machine is now a disoredited
thing is too far advanced. The Platt
machine still exists in New York and
the machines OF Quay, Cameron, Clark
son and others are found in different
sections of the country. just 81 long
as there are political leaders there will
be control of caucuses and conventions,
manipulation Of voters, spoils OF office
and rewards to vote producers. These
are elements which commonly 60 to
make up what is known as the machine
in politics. And it will never be other
wise so long as the American system Of
choosing it's public servants at elections
continues. The man who has a fond
ness for politics and who succeeds,
naturally aspires to control. If he has
a sufficient number Of followers he be-
comes n political boss and then with his
assistants organizes his machine. No
very great harm a result from it, for
the people after all are greater than the
bosses and can turn them out when
ever they deem it necessary.

THE Washington Post is authority
for the statement that a free coinage
headquarters will be established at
Minneapolis during the session Of the
national republican convention and that
all the delegates from the silver states
will be gathered in and pledged to vote

to the Montana delegates who are ex-
pected to vote for Harrison under pen

By the way, will the esteemed Herald
inform us whether or not Brother
Blaine is a free coinage man? OF course
it would not support him unless he
we're.

A CORRESPONDENT writes to the Chi
cago News suggesting the nomination Of
Judge Walter q. Gresham on the demo-
cratic ticket for president. He points
out with great accuracy different sec
tons where Judge Gresham's candidacy
would draw very many votes, though his
nomination by the democrats is the
most improbable event of the year. lie
may be unpopular with the republicans
because of his opposition to tho Mckin-
ley bill. but it will never do to allow HIM
to head the democratic ticket. The man
for hat position must be ademocrat, with
a record for democracy, and there are
many men in the party who are quite
equal to Judge Gresham in ability or
integrity.

Vino for tho Passover Fcnst.

Nine barrels OF holy vine n brandy,
made in Palestine. were used by the ortho-
dox Jews of Chicago during the feast of
Passover. A great deal OF ceremony il
performed in the pnIuhasa and shipment
of these liquors, which are considered very
precious. Before they are ssnt on their
destination they are blessed by the Pales-

CLEVELAND has a majority OF the
national democratic convention, but
not the two-thirds necessary to make
him a sure winner. Harrison lacks
quite a handful of votes Of the required
majority IN the republican convention.

will be nominated, but neither is in a
sufficiently safe position to feel COM
Portable. The ways of conventions are
mighty uncertain.

While the Butte Miners attack on our

temporary, it may be we'll to remember In

Rether feasible. Col. Warhorse Sanders in

placing an advalorem duty on all
sapphires shipped to the tow of Butte.

In all Montana can be found no inner type
of the immaculate flower of chivalry. even
though he lives in that community OF com
mon people, Butte. He is a knight like
those who started to find the Holy Grail
and of all who stretched their feet under
King Arthur's round table, not one pos
sessed a stouter heart or nobler presence.
For these reasons. and not because he once
tried to jump Lewis and Clark county, We
regret to learn of his first and most igno-
minious defeat. 1t appears that he has
lately been involved in a litigation of some
sort and found it necessary to serve 0cer-
tain papers. Accompanying the deputy he
unauspectingly walked into the residence
of one of the parties to the suit. The
results. while painful to Lyons. are
amusing to the reader. Hardly had the
good housewife observed him before she
stepped to the heated stove and filling a
bucket with concentrated lye dashed it over
the captains curly head. Instead Of pay
ing a delicate compliment to the lady by
allowing her to continue the diversion,
Lyons ran away to a boiler shop and
creased his facial epidsrmis. The creator
part of the lye fortunately fell on his right
cheek and no harm was done. As concen-
trated lie has always been a f~avorite Butte
weapon we are at Il loss to account for the
captains failure to equip himself for the
attack. in any event We advise him in a
friendly way to discard the gun and knife
and carry a large-sized vitriol- proof squirt
gun.

had directly, and for constitutional
reasons, and constitutional reasons
alone, they left the matter wholly to
the States.
And now that the precedent exists,
who shall say what crimes against
liberty it may not shield? There are
men who regard orthodox sermons as
degrading, and others to whom socialist
literature is worse than lottery adver-
tisements, while still others look upon
infidel writings as a moral plague. 1t
must appear to them that the United
States Government, in carrying the
mail matter to which they object, is in
partnership with the devil; and given
the political power they would doubt
less have all such matter declared I'M
mailable. But the principal danger
lies in the direction of restraining the
publication of new and unpopular the
cries regarding religion and govern
ment. The post office is the great
agency for the dissemination of all
ideas, and if its service be withheld
from the advocates of what may at any
time be unpopular, the opportunities
for making it popular would be mar
rOwed almost to the point of suppress
sion.
1t is difficult to realize that our lib
critics can ever be overthrown. There
is a feeling that when liberty is really
assailed every one will rally around her
standard. But liberty is seldom as
sailed by direct attack, tits generally
by gradual approaches, and very fire.
quently in the name of morality. With
here a restriction and there another,
made necessary apparently by some
conduct that offends the moral sense,
liberty may at last be bound hand and
foot. What part this lottery decision
may play in the programme of tyranny
is not fore seen; but at some critical
moment it may prove to be the one
thing needful.-NeeU York Standard.
