DEMOCRATS. HOLD THE FORT.

The attempt to eliminate Mr.. Hamil-
ton by judicial process may or may not
be successful, for the house of repre-
sentatives is higher power than the
supreme court, and we believe it will
not hesitate to assert its rights over
prerogatives that may be ruthlessly
trampled upon, but again We must warn
democrats to be on their guard. The
republican plotters are still at work. As
Commodore Power said in that ST. Paul
interview, the other day, "There are
several close districts; we'll get some of
'em." There is one such district in Mis-
soula, one in Meagher, one IN Silver
Bow. Yes, they'll "get some of 'em, y
whether they gain control by ousting
Hamilton, or in some other way, unless
they are blocked. If they can get a
majority of one in the house, they will
unseat half a dozen democrats, il neces-
sary, to secure majority on Joint bal
lot.
We understand the democrats are
we'll fortified with evidence to contest
the seats of three republican senator's
elect and feel secure in this fact. But
we should greatly deplore policy of re-
taliation in this business Of unseating
men. The republican conspirators and
their tools have already done enough tc
render popular elections in Montana a
travesty and to make us the butt and
jeer of the people of other states. The
democrats can afford to leave that sort
of politics to their opponents.
Let US have no contests to GUST sit,
ting members of either house il they
can be honestly avoided. In case oi
fragrant frauds, such as were perpetratec
for the benefit of Hamilton's opponent
the duty of the house is plain. If II
appears that any candidate for the sen
ate wrongfuly holds the certificate o.
election, let the democratio majority il
that body fearlessly do its duty in the
face of clamor and protest. But no i'll
advised step should be taken. Let the
| constitution and the laws be scrupu
lousy observed; let justice be admins
tered, in one body at least, with impair
| tial hand.
But let democrats be on their guart
at every point; let them come to Helen
prepared to confront a crafty and Gun
ming foe, who win soruple at nothing t
gain his end.

A Curious Law Suit.

A curious case has been decided by the
Saxon court OF appeals sitting at Dresden.
At Krossen there is toll bridge over the
Nude, and only foot passengers may cross
free. A young man who rode across on his
bicycle was charged the regular fee for
two-wheel vehicle, but paid under protest.
Having occasion to return the same way he
dismounted at the approach to the bridge
and walked across. carrying his wheel on
his head This time the toll-gather pro-
tested. but to no purpose. Suit was brought
against the bicyclist in the local court to
compel him to pay toll and costs, and a
etdict for the defendant was rendered; an
appeal WAS taken to the suprems court,
which reversed the decision of the lower
court and found for the plaintiff. Appeal
was again taken, this time to the court of
last resor9. which decided that toll could
be collected only for vehicles which came
in actual contact with the bridge. Judg-
inent reversed; verdict for the bioy clist. -

A Good Joke on u Joker.

John Russell Young was close friend of
the late Larry Jerome. the greatest praot-
cal Joker this country has ever known, says
the Philadelphia IImes. Upon one occa-
sion Jerome played one OF his pranks upon
the genial editor, and the latter determined
to pay him back in his own coin. At about
this time jerome had played a joke which
was practical in two senses. In the clubs
and public resorts of New York ne narrated
with great glee how by virtue of his long
service as a republican he had induced
President Arthur TO appoint one of his sons
collector of internal revenue in Texas. and
then n few years later, on the strength of
his lifelong devotion to the democratic
party, had succeeded in having his son,
rrayers Jerome. made an assistant district
attorney under John II. Fellows. With
these facts in mind Young awaited his op-
portunity, and found it when Larry jerome
came to Washington in the company OF
Thomas p. Ochiltree, whom ho wrote the
following paragraph:
| ave notice that one Lawrence Jerome and
one Thomas z. Ochiltres are parading

they Syndicated on Division of Trade
and ProBpered.
You have ell heard of the rival hotels in q
town which ruin each other by the pro-
cess of cutting rates and Safeguarding
their rivals, says the Boston Courier. A
much better plan was that followed by the
proprietors of the only two hotels in the
town of Webster few years ago. 1t was
tacitly agreed that the trade was to be di-
vided between the two. Accordingly. to
one hotel all the drummers who struck
town betook themselves, and Il travelling
mun who had tried hanging up at
! the other hostelry would have
found cold welcome. On the
other hand, all the show companies put up
with the other landlord. The drummers
were made happy with sample rooms, meals
at hours convenient to the trains, big
room where story telling coRld go on into
the wee sma' hours. he theatrical folk,
at the other place, had late breakfasts, mid
night euppers. and the beefsteak and on
! ions which every country landlord oonsid-
els an indispensable dish for the table that
caters to the show people. In this way
neither of the hotels starved, and both sets
of people were better cared for than if they
had indiseriminately gone to either place

TODAY. TOO.

paraphrase Charles Dudley Warner
what is the matter with the day after
Christmas, and the day after that? IL
the Christmas spirit is genuine, 1t should
be lasting; if it is a glorious thing one
day in the year, why not on the other
.364? The Master in whose honor the
day is kept did not observe his birthday
above all other days. To him all days
were alike opportunities for good deeds,
charity, sweetness and light. His mis-
sion was to make a perennial Christmas
on this earth. Let us put away all the
sentiment about yesterday that is fash
ionab,e or mawkish, and hold only to
that which is true. 1t is all very we'll
to be jolly, kindhearted, a giver of gifts,

CoNeREss will be asked during the
coming month to settle the question of
opening the worlds fair on Sundays. 1t
is believed that the vote in the house
will be close as straw vote shows l4l
representatives in favor Of Sunday open
ing and 13S against it. This is hardly to
be taken as reliable indication Of the
final vote for the reason that the work
ers for Sunday opening are far more
numerous and will bring stronger press
ure to bear. The labor organizations
are working jointly to this end with the
ministers and saloon men of Chicago on
the other side. Each congressman will
be likely to study the effect OF his vote
in his own district before giving atten-
tion to the Chicago constituency.
