THE MORTON CADETS.
Their First Appearance Will BE at
the Drill Wednesday Evening.

The first appearance Of the Morton Ca
diets in public since their victorious return
from 4Iemphis will be Wednesday evening
at o'clock in front of the Arlington Hotel,
all reports to the contrary notwithstanding.
On that occasion the young soldiers are to
wear full dress government uniform coats,
white duck trousers and company caps,
and will probably be headed by the Mount
Pleasant Drum Corps. The published
statement that the company has practical
ly decided as to the disposition of it's prize
money is declared to be erroneous by Capt.
Shilling, who adds that no thought has
been turned in that direction.

EN- IlRGENCY TAkIEF.

When Mr.. Cleveland sent his special
message on finance to congress, he made
ratbe an ingenious plea III behalf of the
| recommendations contained in his an-
nual message and concluded: 81 ask at
the hands or congress- such prompt aid
as 1T alone has power TO give to prevent
in this time of fear and apprehension,
any sacrifice Of the peoples interests and
the public funds or tho impairment of
our public credit in the effort, by execu-
tive action, to relieve the dangers OF the
present contingency" Mr.. Cleveland
may not agree with the house Of repre-
eentatives on the relief measures it has
seen tit TO propose and partially adopt,
but he certainly cannot quarrel with il
on the score Of promptness. The message
was sent ia on Dec 20 and yesterday
the llrst measure was passed. Taking
It's cue from the message Of the pres-
dent and the report Of Secretary Car
lislc, the majority Of the house decided
that more revenues were needed, and
what they call an emergency tariff bill was
fixed up and run through under a spe-
cial rule made to meet the occasion.
Taking 1lr. Cleveland at his word, that
haste was needed, only few hours were
allowed for debate and then. SO far AS
the house is concerned. measure that
will add SiO,OOO,OO0 per amman to the
revenues was passed. This may or NAV
not hang fire in the senate. but it will
certainly not please the executive. TO-
day will come the second cbapfor Of the
response Of the house to the mps2arr.

ist in the codes can be tided over, but
this one is SO serious that it must de

may be said Of the election law that has

latter may be all right. bat rs its validity

Of wisdom to have competent authority

When Mr.. Cleveland pennsd his re-
marksble and much commended mes
sage on the Venezuelan question, he took
the patriotic stand that the Monroe doc
trine was fixed and settled American
policy, and that this government was
prepared to insist upon and defend it as
against England, ana, if need be, against
all the powers of Europe, This declara-
| Unitod States to maintain the position 1t
has ever held and to assert its rights, in
spite Of foreign powers, met with a ready
and emphatic response from congress
and has been indorsed by unanimous
popular sentiment. Nc are face to face
with an emergency in which the national
honor is at stake, and we cannot recGde
il we would. For the p r. he has taken
in it there has been nothing but praise
for the president. His message assumed
that this government is great and re-
tain It's own policy, without regard TO
any other people or government His
talk was manly and American.
But in two DAYS a change has come
over him. Friday he sent to congress
another MESA e. in which he declares
that the United States is. in financial
matters. the slave Of foreign money Bings
and unless we obey their bidding dire
results will follow. lie SAYS we arc in Il
"seaaon Of perpleXity," that we are "pur-
suing d dangerous and fAtuous hrun-
cial gol cy" and that we will be rained
unless something Is done. In the
light Of his previous communication the
message Of FrIay is coDtcmp'ible.

RAMPANT CORRUpTION

The New York brewers have made up
their minds to take hand in the excise
Legislation at the coming session Of the
state Legislature. A bill will be intro,
duced imposing a tax upon saloons in
stead Of the regular license, as at pres
cnt, and making that tax first lien
upon the stock and fixtures Of the sa-
loon. To this the brewers seriously OBJ
ject. The merits Of the two schemes
"e do not care to enter into or discuss.

versy that calls for serious comment, as

Chairman Morrison of the interstate

commission has officially informed the
senate that "in order to enforce the

is necessary to proceed through the

seriously crippled unless licenses are
part OF their revenues, gravely says that
the counties are in fairly good financial
shape and can tide over the emergency
by Issuing warrants. This is u curious
doctrine. 1t Is almost as bad as the old
one of robbing Peter to pay Paul. The
failure to collect licenses will be a seri-
Gus detriment TO all the counties and
cities. In Cascade county and Great
Falls city it will amount to about $50.
900, and in Silver Bow, Lewis and Clarke
and Deer Lodge 10 larger sums. and in
all the other counties to much more than
they can afford to lose. The next legis
laturc will not convene until January,
1897, and when it passes a license
law it cannot, if we understand
the situation, be made retroactive.
Therefore, from this date until the en-
actmcnt Of Il new law the counties and
cities would be deprived of that large
source Of revenue. This would be bad
enough, but, according to the Standard,
it should be made good by piIng up a
debt equal to the amount Of the def
cheney by borrowing money to keep
afloat. To put it in English, Cascade
county and Great Falls would lose alb
solutciy $4,000; it would borrow $685.
600, making an aggregate of +13O,OOO,
and on nc-half of it there would be in.
tcrost at per cent until paid. This is
worse than Mr.. Clcyclands scheme of
1inancicring, and, if adopted, would
prove ten times more expensive to the
people than even the much dreaded scs-
sion Of the legislature.
