TABLES CHANGED.

1t reads like this good old times to
glance over the Dispatch, in other col
umns, from Butte, which relates that a
few of the best of them in that city
turned the tables on would be holdups.
In the case referred to the bitter was bit,
the robbers were robbed. 1t is, how
ever, to the credit of the robbers in this
special Case that they have advertised
that the booty secured during the little
disturbance will be returned to its right
ful owner or owners upon due presen-
tgtlon Of the proof of his or their
identity. This is an honorable
and proper proposition. The ques-
ton is, whether the magnanimoue
offer will be accepted. If it is not, the
best the victors can do ia to have good
time with the spoils. The Butte Incl
dent. as related, shows that the least lit
tie bit of nerve is good stand off for q
gun, even when hidden by masks, and
that when q Montana man does not de-
sire to throw up his hands he does not
have to.

restoration of silver to it's ancient place
in the monetary system of the United
States, whether with or without inter
national agreement, and it will be the
aim of the publishers to offer IA clean
