WEEKLY TRIBUNE
STRICTLY IN IT..

There is not much of a boom about
Great Falls, for it has passed that stage
of the game, but it is marching along in
its allotted path at a gait that challenges
comparison with sister cities. The city
and its environs are normally prosperous,
only this and nothing more. Its splen-
did resources, as yet only in the begin
ming of their development, are the
certain basis of future greatness, and
the fulfllment of destiny cannot be
long delayed. The present condition of
affairs is more than cheerful. The
movement Of real estate, as shown by
the reports, is brisk, for there is not a
day but what half a dozen transfers are
recorded. 1t is true that no sales of
great magnitude are being made,
but what is better for the
prosperity Of the place is that
residents of moderate means, the workers,
are purchasing homes. Times are sup
posed to be hard, but in spite Of that the
county treasurer reports that more than
30 per cen Of the taxes have been paid.
and that during the past quarter the
revenu from licenses has been greater
than ever in the history Of the county.
The school fund, too, is il fair shape,
for during the year the receipts from
general and special taxes have amounted
to over $4,000. Mention is not made of
these matters in a boastful way, but only
10 call attention TO the fact that Great
gressive cities in the wonderful state of
Montana.

THE DEBS IMPRISONMENT,

Eugene V. Debs and his associates
have determined to obey the sentence of
Judge Woods and go to Jail for six
months for contempt of court. Mr.. Debs
may during the strike have been guilty
Of ONE otfense that merited punish
ment, but it does seem curious that he
could not be reached except by the ex-
ercise of that extra judicial function
known as contempt of court. The power
to use autocratic authority even by the
courts is as dangerous as it is un-Ameri-
can, and in this special case of Debs ap-
pears to be a clear evidence that when a
man cannot be punished for what he has
done he can be punished for what he
has not done. 1t would indicate that a
change is needed in the United
States system of Jurisprudence, for
with all our respect for law and
constituted authority there arises a re-
bellious spirit when a man is deprived Of
his liberty at the arbitrary dictum Of a
court which in imposing the sentence
facility admits that its victim has been
guilty of 40 otfense that can be punished
under the statutes. The TRIBUNE is not
~apologizing for Debs nor ever assuming
that he is guiltless, but it Is raising a
protest against what it considers a
judicial wrong. This recent practice Of
issuing summary processes in the shape
Of injunctions and mandamus is becom-
ing rather monotonous and can be ma
terial'y modified without doing any vio-
lence to either the law or those who seek
relief under it's provisions. Judges are
human and they should realize that fact
in the exercise of their extraordinary
power,

does not resent this and select free men
to represent the state in the senate the
beginning of the end is at hand.

The robles and the army in Germany
may stand in with the young emperor
William, but the reichstag appears to be
in humor to have a say. His idea of the
divine right of kings is not as easy to

changes his system it looks as though
there were breakers ahead for the young
man, not only at home but abroad.

No specious sophistry from any source,

No specious sophistry from any source,
no talk about men needing work and
children needing school facilities, can
alter the fact that there is in this city a
large number of people who believe
that the present school board should not
be intrusted with the supervision of
buildings costing $4,000. This will be
made manifest on the 9th of December.

.'Oh, I don't mind telling a story

foot-sore. Presently she came to a halt,
and hailed a four-wheeler which was

not have been SO anxious, for she sang

her safely inside, L perched my
self behind. That's an art which every
detective should be an expert at. Well,
away we ratified, and never drew a
rein until we reached the street in
question. I hoped off before we came
to the door, and strolled down h
street in an easy, lounging way. l saw
the cab pull up. The driver jumped
down, and I saw him open the door
and stand expectantly. Nothing came
out, though. When l reached him he
was cropping about frantically in the
empty cab, and giving vent to the
finest assorted collection Of oaths hat

or trace Of his passenger, and l fear it

saw that he was followed, no doubt,

Here is your ring. Mrs. Sawyer" I
interrupted, in obedience to a sign
from my companions; "it clearly be-
longs to your daughter, and I am glad
TO restore 1t to the rightful owner"
With many mumbled blessings and
pr~otestations Of gratitude the old
cronc packed it away in her pocket,
and shufded of down the stairs. Sher-
lock Holmes sprang to his feet the mo-
ment she was gone and rushed into his
room. He returned in a few seconds
ehveloped in an ulster and a cravat.
'sIru follow her." he said, ~hurriedly;

hall door had hurriedly slammed be-

ecended the stair. Looking through

pursuer logged her some little dis

about 1t. Here comes our man. I

AS he spoke there was a sharp ring
at the bell. Sherlock Holmes rose
softly, and moved his chair in the di-
rection Of the door. We heard the
servant pass along the hall, and the
sharp click of the latch as she opened it.

q clear but rather harsh voice. We
could not hear the servants reply, but
the door closed, and some one began to
ascend the stairs. The football was an
uncertain and shutting one. A look of
surprise passed over the face of my
companion as he listened to it. I came
slowly along the passage, and there
was a feeble tap at the door.
Come in!' I cried.
At my summons, instead Of the man
of violence whom we expected, a very
old and wrinkled woman hobhled into
the apartment. She appeared to be
dazz1ed by the sudden blaze Of light,
and, after dropping a courtesy, she
stood blinking at us with her cleared
eyes and fumbling in her pocket with
nervous, shaky fingers. glanced at
my companion, and mis- face had as

that 1t vas all I could do to keep my

The old o drew out an evening

another courtesy; "a gold wedding
