Unique in the way of petitions is
one which is about TO be called TO the
attention OF congress. 1t is a polyglot.
Attached TO It are the signatures of
some seven millions of people, for the
most part women. Signatures were
obtained in every civilized portion of
the globe. The petition is written
declaration on the part of the siCners
that they would like to see the liquor
traffic made a crime and have il re-
moved entirely from the pale of the
law.

daughters of men, WELD a powerful

Is bound to give the prayer of these
earnest people consideration. What
ever view men may take upon the
general subject of liquor drinking and

sentiment of admiration for the brain
that conceived the plan and the ener-
getic hands that prosecuted the work
of obtaining from the women of al
most every known land this monster
protest against the sale and use of in
toxicating liquors. 1t is doubtless
within the lines Of truth TO say that
much energy and influence has been
wasted IN the preparation of this poly

is learned, was none other than the motor

Adams was acting as the agent for the

The Health of This CITY.

is not, in any sense, difficult task to
keep this city's highways clean; nature
made many excellent sanitary arrange
ments for Anaconda.
But a fair measure of labor is re-
quired to keep in good condition Ger
tain sections where the houses are
thick and the drainage is imperfect.
The sunshine of approaching spring
will reveal some pretty unwholesome
spots even in Anaconda; these will re-
ceive prompt and effective attention
under the plan of the authorities. 1t
was the pleasant testimony of a Hell
ena gentleman, a physician of high
standing in his profession, who came
to Anaconda for the purpose of criti-
cising this city's sanitary conditions,
that he found here one of the neatest
looking and cleanest communities in
the state.

holder. Labor expended in the clean
ing of streets, alleys and back yards is
always a most profitable investment.
The proposed ordinance requiring
death certificates and burial per-
mits to be issued and kept on
record is in the line of a needed re-
form. Perhaps the better scheme
would be the passage of a state law
governing these matters. This news
paper would favor a law requiring the
clerk of every municipality in the
state to keep a record of the births.
marriages and deaths within his dis
trlct. The minister or justice per-
forming marriage cerem ony, the doc
tor attending at a birth or a death
should be required by law TO report
the same to the clerk of the munich
pality wherein it occurred. Failure to
10 SO should be punishable under the
law.
This would establish an accurate |
and useful, as we'll as inexpensive, sys- |
-em of keeping statistics that are in |

here refers to, probably the passage of
IN ordinance by the city council
would be the most effective method of
accomplishing the desired end. BY
way of general comment it may be

There's great measure of comfort in

THE BEST IN THE NORTHWEST
TUESDAY. FEBRUARY g. 1895.
Through the House.

The action taken in the two houses
at Helena is in evidence of the fac
that the public sentiment in Montana
was fully ripe for the suppression OF
gambling When the vote was taken
on this question in the senate, no
member of that body went on record
in favor of gambling.
The test came in the house at last
evenings session, and there gambling
was ruled out in an emphatic way
the vote was forty-six to eight. OF
course the bill will be signed; our
memory is that, in the constitutional
convention Governor Richards advo-
Gated the prohibition, which will now
go in force as the result of legislative
action.
1t was bound to come; the reforma-
tion apparently brought itself about in
the fulness Of time. There had been,
of late, no especial agitation, no for
NAL crusade had been carried on, the
question had received scant discussion
IN the press of the state. During the
session at Helena there has not been
manifested disposition to press the
proposed law upon the attention of
the members; the bill, apparently, was
not in need of active champions. 1t
passed. seemingly, as a matter of
course. 1t stood on its merits and got
nearly the total vote of both houses.
There are those whose notion is that
this law will eventually be a dead
letter affair. We think that those who
entertain this idea are wrong. 1t has
lately been learned that many of the
men who are regarded as spokesman
for the gambling fraternity were in
different as TO the fate of the bill
while it was pending. Their assertion
is that the business has dwindled in
recent years to such a degree that
there was small profit in it for the bet
ter class of houses. Many of them
have been hampered by dead. beat
hangers-on, the accumulation of years,
till they are tired of it; and it seemed
to them not worth while to try to op-
pose the passage of the bill.
Among these people are many fair
and-square men who have the COM
pletest confidence of their fellows in
every matter relating to business
affairs 1t is reasonable assumption
that these men will obey the law; and
the riff-raff will have to quit. The
thing was done deliberately at Helena,
the law is not the result of a sudden
awakening of sentiment The reform
came in quietly, and we believe it has
come to stay.
The matter has its financial bear
ings. In Butte, for instance, some
striking changes in outward appear
ance Will probably take place Pos
sibly Main streets west side below |
Broadway will undergo a transforma-
tion, although it is not to be assumed |
that, in the end, real estate in that
quarter will suffer in value. On the
other hand, Butte will rid herself of |
an element among the gamblers |
which has always been positive dam
age TO the community and which must |
now seek new fields.

Land of the Neg Perces,

When the NeZ Perez Indian reserya-
ton Is finally thrown open for settle
ment some of the finest lands in the
state of Washington will be made
available. The land is rich; for agri-
cultural and fruit raising purposes
there are few regions in the new states
better. The authorities at Washing
ton have taken their time in the mat
ter of throwing this reservation open
for settlement. 1t was a long time
ago that title to the land was trans
ferred to the government The once
powerful tribe of redmen that owned
1t has almost disappeared. The pages
of Montana's early history are filed
with thrilling accounts of events with
which these savage nomads had TO do.
Once every white settlement in the
territory of Idaho was threatened with
destruction by marauding bands of
Nez Perez Indians.
But the steel of the white man and
the influence of his none the less
deadly civilization has swept them
away. 1t now only requires the
proclamation of the president of the
United States to make available to the
white man their rich lands, almost an
empire in extent. 1t is asserted by
men who follow the business of min
ing that some parts of the reservation
abound with valuable minerals. There
Is splendid timber TO be had there in
abundance. Beyond doubt there will
be great rush of homesteaders aud
prospectors and spectators when the
Nez Perez country is thrown open.
