tana- All Of them make the announce

able record as a soldier is recognized.
his career on the bench is commended.
At the same time. almost without ex-
.ception, the eastern press is scant in
its compliments Of Mr.. Gresham's sery-
:ces in the Cleveland cabinet.
1t is to be remembered that Mr.
Gresham inherited batch Of bad bust

Then. too, he got a wrong start and
made a deplorably poor finish in his
dealings with Hawaii. The country be-

The Future of the Great Arid West.


There will always be wild phase to
Far Western life. Our realm of adven-
ture and hardihood-of tho cowboy, with
his spurs and sombrero; of the big freight
wagon, with its six or eight mules, guided
by a single jerlSrein: of hunting expedi-
tons for deer, elk and mountain sheep;
of the prospector with his led horse, loaded
with grub-stake, blankets, pick and pan /;
OF the pack train winding up the noun
tain gorge; of camps beneath the stars on
lonely plains, or on sage brush wastes
where the dismal howl of the coyote
breaks the silence of the night-this realm
of romance, of courage, and of rude phys
ical life, is not going TO disappear. The
sedentary dwener in the rich and popu-
lous irrigated valleys will always be
brought into close contact with the bod
rider, the daring hunter and the venture
some seeker for gold and silver. Let me
repeat, in conclusion, the comparison
have already used. The single furrow run
across n 20-acre field represents all Il q
area that can ever, by the largest enter
prise and tho most liberal expenditure, be
reclaimed for cultivation in the arid RI
gion, and the remainder of the field REL
resents the area that will always remain
in its present condition of pastoral plains,
mountains and deserts.-E. V. Smalley ia

A COLONIAL BASTILE.

Workmen Unearth Dungeons which Were
Utilized Before Revolutionary Days.
From the Philadelphia Times.
One of the oldest buildings in Philadel-
phia in which, it is said, tho first city
court and prison was established by the
English, upon their settlement here, is be-
ing demolished. and in few days will be
RACED to the ground. The building is To-
Gated in the rear of 1ls Spruce street. and
from the relics unearthcd by Contractors
Heater and Stockbine its associations are
OF a truly historic nature. So far as can
be ascertained the building was erected
by the British about $50 years ago, and
was used as a combination court, prison
barracks and fort.
1t was three stories high, and in the
basement the contractors have discovered
three vaults, approached by archways of
heavy masonry. Back of the vaults there
is supposed to be a subterranean passage
The vaults or dungeons are thought to be
the place where the prisoners were con-
lined prior to revolut ionary times. They
have not as yet ex plored, nor will the
workmen be able to reach them for sew
eral days. The entire building was con-
structed in tho strongest possible man
ner, and in the third story the walls are
fnll OF loopholes, which were used no
doubt for the discharge of musketry.
During the destruction of tho building
the workmen found $50 worth of old PEN
MES hidden away in chimney. Tho
coins bear dates of 100 to 125 years ago.
Several pieces of antiquated jewelry have
also been found. A massive stone wall
once surrounded the place, the bed of
which is still visible.

Senator Morgan's Remark, =.

No man who keeps himself informed
concerning people i'm public life is in
doubt about Senator Morgans democ-
racy or his ability. Probably he is the
best-equipped man from the South in
either house of congress; indeed. with
the wide range of the United States out
of which to make selection, you will
not find many men Of better brain who
walk in the ways of politics.
Senator Morgan is for free coinage
he has known in his time what 1t is to
have Secretary Carlisle standing with
him side by side and waging war for
silver. The party lines are not worry
ing Mr. Morgan but he has his eye on
Secretary Carlisle, who is swinging
through Kentucky. and he is trying to
sound the secretary's scheme. To a
Washington Post reporter Senator
Morgan said. last Sunday. that. in his
opinion, an effort is on foot to disrupt
the old democratic party and create a
new organization out of the ruins. for
the purpose OF providing a third term
in the White House for President
Cleveland. IF the party is disrupted"
added Senator Morgan. President
Cleveland is a man who will have very
few regrets about it,"
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Car
Isle hoped for the presidential nominal
ton in 1892. He was brushed aside. he
saw the strength of those who carried
Mr.. Cleveland through the convention.
Forthwith he made up his mind that
this was the sort of company for a man
with his ambition to train in. and he
became a goldbug. In the opinion of
Senator Morgan. the Carlisle tour of
education. with its polyglot varieties
of new learning" may be taken to
mean that. Cleveland being deemed inn
possible, Wall street will back Carlisle
for the race.
Senator Morgan is probably mistaken
in this. The goldbug republican or
gans in the East are applauding Cleve-
land; they are using Carlisle. but they
do not praise him-they do not trust
him. More likely It will be common
cause with the goldbug republicans
and democrats for Cleveland. with the
expectation that all concerned will take
up some man like Morton IL the Cleve-
land programme fails. 1t is not so re-
markable. after all. that Mr.. Cleve-
land should see in himself a better
man than his party"--the leading re-
publican organs in the East are MAX
ing out OF him a very large man.
Senator Morgan sees I'm all that is
going on an effort TO split the demo-
cratic marty for selfish ends Here is "A
sentence in his terse talk about Mr..
Cleveland. The president has as
sumed the role Of infallibility and he
IS very busy announcing the pains OF
accommodation against those demo-
Gratis who insist upon bimetallism as an
article o. faith I'm the creed Of the de-
mocracy. II he ever knew the fact he
has forgotten IL or ignores il, that in
1896 the platform OF the New York de-
mocracy. on which Van Buren, was
nominated and elected. contained this
fundamental declaration: We declare

In spite Of the fact that Teddy"
Roosevelt downed him. superintendent
Byrnes will rank as the most success
full thief-catcher Of his time. He goes
down as the turning-point in what is
understood to be a reformation in the
New York police administration. That a
reform Of that sort is needed seems like
ly in view of the testimony taken some
time ago in which several members of
the force confessed TO conduct worse
than scandalous. There are plenty of
people who are glad to see Mr.. Byrnes
go-it may be well that he should go.
But at the same time that part of his
career that concerns excellent detective
work makes up a brilliant record. He
began his term of service on the New
York force thirty odd years ago. he
became a police captain in 1870. and
after successfully organizing the de-
tective bureau, he served as inspector
and superintendent. They have chaos
in the New York force just now, IL
remains to be seen what the new man
agement will do.

the new codes the divorce laws are much
moro stringent than those now in force.
The causes for legal separation are the
same, but where the pinch will come is
the provision that what may be called tho
innocent party to the divorce shall not re-
marry within two years, and the other
party not within three years. This will
seriously interfere with the divorce in
dustry in the state, and no doubt the
courts and moral element in the COM
munity will be duly grateful. The fact
Is that the ease and comparative privacy
with which divorces have been obtained
IN the state, and the number of them
have become q public scandal. For this
improvement, IL the law stands. the codes
are to be commended.-Great Falls Tri-
bune.
The editor of the Neihart Herald apollo
gizes to his readers for not writing more
editorials and says that a sore thumb is
the reason. Once more are we brought
face TO face with the fact that editors &C.
casionalIy use a pen.-Bozeman Chroni-
Gle.
The promoters of the Bimetallic union
evidently did not want any populists in it.
Governor Richards appointed two repub-
means ana one democrat TO the CONFER
ence, ignoring the popuiists entirely. who
cast the second highest vote in the state.
Populists are too much devoted to silver
to be represented in such a conference
they cannot be manipulated. If silver
waits for the old parties to rehabilitate it,
1t Will wait forever.-Helena News.
The Anaconda Standard has blossomed
with the spring by adding an extra col
umn to each of its eight regular pages,
which means an extra page and third of
news on regular issues and two pages on
Sunday. This improvement is rendered
possible by the introduction of IA gang"
of typesetting machines in the Standard
composing rooms. The Standard has
adopted the Merganthaler and dishes up
its generous daily contribution of news
from red hot copy in molten metal.-Miles
City Journal.

Dllard has added n new Quilt; Sam Cor

THE BEST IN THE NORTHWEST.
SATURDAY, JUNE /, 1895.
IL Nav B. Whitney.

They are saying that Whitney Is the
man who will go into the cabinet. That
he could get the portfolio for the ask
ing. goes without saying. He is having
the run of Londons social life Just
now-the question is whether he wants
to become secretary Of state.
To begin with. the selection Of Mr..
Whitney would probably make the
Britishers mad they like him well
enough in a social way. but official
rank in the diplomatic line is a diff
ferent thing altogether. Mr.. Whitney
was in Italy, a short time ago, when
the Nicaragua trouble reached its eli
max; the cable was used to hasten
the sending TO this country Of his i'm
passioned words. His was the cit
makes-my-b boil" telegram which
was printed in this country just at the
moment when a British ship stood off
Corinto and levied petty-larceny black
mail on the helpless people Of Nicara-
qua.
Somewhere we have seen IL printed
that Mr.. Whitney is the man who in
troduced Mr.. Gresham to President
Cleveland. That report may be true.
yet there is every reason why il ought
10 be doubted. At any rate. ii is a
perfectly safe inference that Mr.. Whit
ney never suggested Gresham for the
premiership; that isn't the. kind of
democrat William c. Whitney is.
More likely that Mr.. Gresham in the
cabinet was outward and visible
sign of an inward and spiritual Don
Dickinson.
And. by the way, why may IT not be
that Dickinson will be made secretary
OF state? Less than fortnight ago. ne
whooped IL up in great shape for a red
headed foreign policy. Dickinson would
"~uip every inch of our coast and ev-
e.y creek that has a mouth with a
terror-striking warship. Dickinson is
a two-legged farce, but. just the same.
he had more to say and more to do
with the shaping Of the second Cleve-
land administration than any other
man in America. How mad Dickinson.
by his conniving in the white house.
made the anti-administration demo-
Gratis. Just because Dickinson yelled
for warships in long procession. David
b. Hill said. at the New York editors
banquet. last week: Il wouldn't build
another ship"
Unlikely it is that Mr.. Whitney will
go into the cabinet. He has been es-
teemed as Mr.. Cleveland's friend. But
Wilson $. Bissell was rated as the
presidents next-best friend. He left
the cabinet. Did he leave. as was al
legged, for personal business reasons?"
Perhaps he did and, then again. per-
haps he didn't. 1t is our opinion that
Mr.. Whitney. admirable man that he
IS. will not go into the cabinet: he
knows President Cleveland too well.

They're Not Our Friends.

All the friends of free coinage ought
to pray for the fall of Rosebery and
the liberals in England: silver will get
no show in London as long as the lib
eral party is in power. This party has
had the sympathy of millions of peo-
pie in America. but It shows no dis
position to reciprocate. In England
sentiment in silver's favor has
grown rapidly within a year or
two. the interest taken there in the
question is getting to be quite as ar
dent as IT is in the United States. but
the liberals will not hear or heed a
word of IL.
The chancellor of the exchequer is
dogmatic in his words-he says that
England simply will not have any
thing whatever to do with the sugges-
ton that gold recommendation be set
aside. This announcement was doubt
less made in answer to what lately
happened in Berlin. The action in
that city, as amended Just at the mo-
ment when the vote was taken, leaves
the impression that Germany will act
with England. If an international con-
ference is held.
Silver's sincerest friends !n this
country have passed the point where
they are laying stress on what an
international conference might do or
leave undone. At the same time, when
it comes to a feeling of friendship for
this or that administration in a for
eign country. 1t is well enough to rec
ognize our friends and treat our enc
mics accordingly.
