SECURE THE PARROT WORKS.

There is now no question that the
great reduction works of the Parrot
company are TO be moved from Butte,
and this is the latest news on the sub
iect, CLEANED from the Inter Mountain:
Relative to the removal of the Parrot it
is understood that the Hecla company
of Glendale and the Parrot people may
unite in the construction of a big plant
on the Big Hole river. Among the in
struments filed for record today was a
water right location on the Big Hole of
10000 inches Of water at a point five
miles above the town of Melrose. 1t is
the intention to build a big dam there
to give whatever force of water is re-
CURED" We believe that there is yet
time to get the Parrot people interested
in Great Falls. and to offer them such
Inducements as will tend to bring their
works to this point. 1t is understood
that the Big Hole location referred to is
only about 30 miles from Butte, but
there is no doubt that advantages exist
here which cannot be duplicated else
where. We respectfully suggest that
immediate action ought to be taken on
this matter by the board of trade or its
executive committee, and representa-
tons made to the Parrot company show
ing what concessions, privileges, etc,
could be guaranteed to them should
they locate their works here. The com
pany owns some of the finest mines in
Butte, and it is a pity that they should
locate at som point possessing indiffer.
ent facilities, when everything they re-
auire is here close at hand.

ELECTRICIrY's marvels are thus far
more seen than understood. In a recent
exhibition at New York an Edison in.
candescent eighteen candle-power lamp,
requiring III volts to light, wa held in
the operators left hand. With his
right he touched the electric wire, and
took enough of the current through his
body to light the lamp. Then he lit a
smaller incandescent lamp by holdinl il
In his mouth, while his body acted as a
circuit. Another successful and remark
able experiment was to charge gas tixt-
ures and a showcase with the current,
so that the lamps, when held within a
few inches of the metal, without touch
ing it, would glow brightly. We are at
the threshold of knowledge concerning
this magical agency, and when we are
able to enter fully INTO the power it is
destined to give mankind the world will
be completely metamorphosed.

have an old pecked up top and a piece Of
cord plucking away for dear life. 1t is
instinct, ! think, and nothing else that
prompts them to take up certain games
at certain seasons. Regarding the imi-
tation theory, there never was a person
who saw the first boy spin his top in any

start the epidemic by spinning his top in
the fall of the year."-kansas City

COOP, efficient, and appropriate men
are being selected by the president for
the important offices in his gift. The
brilliant Ohio diplomatic, Edwin Dun,
who has been advanced from secretary
Of legation to minister to Japan. is a
case in point. His daughter, Miss Helen
Dun, is at school in this country. Her
mother vas Ysuru Matsudu, the beauti-
full daughter of a Japanese general,
whose accomplishments won the affec-
ton of Mr.. Dun when he was secretary
Of legation at Toxic. Mrs. Dun died
three years ago. Her daughter resem-
bles her in many ways and is described
as a genuine little JAP" She speaks
the Japanese language %huently, and as,
although still in her teens, she will pre-
side over the minister's household, her
presence will doubtless prove to be an
interesting novelty to the subjects of the

The reconciliation of King Oscar OF
Sweden and his favOrite son. Prince o.
car, has ut length taken place. The
king and the prince have hardly even
net since the latter's morganatic mar
riage to Miss Ebba Munk, who was one
of his mothers maids of honor. Miss
Munk was not particularly pretty, but
had somehow or other succeeded in win
ming the affections of Prince Oscar, who
was infatuated with her to such a degree
that. Notwithstanding the opposition of
his father and of all his relatives except
his mother, he carried his way and mar
ried her, the ceremony taking place at
Bournemouth in England.
Before this, however, Prince Oscar
had to his claims to the sue
cession to the throne. as we'll as all his
privileges and prerogatives as a son Of
the king. He was deprived Of the title
Of royal highness, of all precedence save
that which he enjoyed as an officer in
the navy, and was reduced in every par
ticular to the rank of a mere nobleman.
Moreover, he was practically banished
to Carlskrona, the great naval arsenal of
Sweden, where he lived quietly and un-
ostentatiously in a small villa looking
out onto the port, winning universal
popularity by his unaffected and modest
demeanor While there. on one occa-
sion. he greatly distinguished himself by
saving from drowning a sailor during a
terrible hurricane.
Quite recently a reconciliation between
father and son has taken place, and at
the request of King Oscar the Count and
Countess of Torbey have now left Carls-
krona and taken up their abode at Stock
holm, greatly to the satisfaction of the
queen. who has all along ~endeavored to
bring about a more pleasant state Of
affairs between her husband and her fa-
vorite son. Boston Globe.

The following incident is recited by
the New York World: "After abolishing
a superfluous Office Secretary Morton
learned that it was occupied by Robert
Blaine, a brother of the late ex-secretary
of state. When told by a prominent
democrat that he thought the removal
ili-timed the secretary is said to have re.
piled that lit did not matter to him
whether the brother Of James G. Blaine
or Andrew jackson was removed; he
could not keep a man for sentiment and
pay him out Of the peoples money! II
public office is a public trust this is
surely the correct view of %sinecures, no
matter who fills them" The incident
proves the miserable system of nepotism
established under republican rule, and
shows that "Cleveland and reform" was
something more than a mere rallying cry
for the people.

A attempt has just been
made in the New York legislature to
abolish capital punishment, but it has
failed. 1t seems very likely in the light
Of the criminal history of the last fifty
years that capital punishment is not an

does not seom to be ready as yet to let a
blood-stained mortal live to the end of
his natural life. The shadow of the

H WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
HOW TO SECURE SETTLERS.
FRIDAY. APRIL q. 1898.

An important suggestion was thrown
out yesterday by Robert A. Ammon OF
New York in conversation with a TRIB-
UNE reporter. Mr.. Ammon was speak.
ing of the necessity Of settlers to develop
the agricultural and other OF
the country, and on being asked what he
thought the best way to secure the immi-
grafton of desirable settlers, said: "The
way that has proved successful in other
states. There are, for instance, thous-
ands Of hardy immigrants ARR ging every
week at New York. Some people pre-
tend that these strangers have their des-
tination settled before they leave their
homes in the old country. This is a
mistake. Very few Of them have any
plans, and on arrival at American ports,
are led to such places of settlement as
are represented to them by immigration
agents and runners, who talk their
language, and are in the pay Of railroads
or land companies.
1T would be an easy matter for Great
Falls to have an agent at New York who
could turn in this direction an agricul-
tural class who would locate on and de-
velope the splendid agricultural lands
adjacent to this city. People could
readily be selected who have means
enough to start in life, and who have in
telligence and education enough to
quickly get into the way of living here.
1t wants men and women who are hard
workers to subdue a new country, and
the material is to be had in
abundance by those who will 60 in quest
of it. These people hear something OF
Kansas, Iowa, and Dakota, and Nebras-
ka before they leave the old countries,
but it is to be doubted that they ever
hear anything about Montana. But
they are the people you need-people
who will subdue the soil and bring these
vast stretches Of rich soil under tillage.'
This suggestion is one which Montana
as a state Should have acted upon long
ago through the agency of a state immi-
grafton bureau, OF by some other means,
and it is peculiarly essential that some
thing of the kind should be in working
order this year. But as the Legislature
had too much wrangling on its hands to
permit of close attention to the pressing
needs of the state, what is done during
the next two years must be done through
personal endeavor, corporate interest, OF
local enterprise. Probably each locality
will be obliged to paddle it's own canoe,
and Great Falls, for one, should lose no
time about getting into the swim.
