THE FOUN DLINGS.
1t 10 Decided to Take Them TO Twin
Bridges Dyphtheris In Centerville.


Bridges -Dypht IBERIA In Centerville.
The county commissioners and Coun-
ty Physician Alvord met yesterday as
a board of health to consider the re-
port of a malignant case of diphtheria
in Centerville. City Physician Whit
ford also met with the board, but as
the case reported was outside the city
limits he had no jurisdiction over it,
but endorsed the recommendation OF
DR.. Alvord, that a stringent quaran-
tine should be established and a guard
placed over the infected house. 1t was
stated that there were several cases
in the same vicinity. The commission
ers authorized DIR. Alvord to do any
thing that was necessary to prevent a
further spread of the disease. and the
sheriff was instructed TO appoint one
or more deputies to assist in maintains
ing the quarantine which was estab-
hshed at once.
The commissioners yesterday received
a letter from Superintendent Comfort
of the state orphans home at Twin
Bridges, written in reply to the APP
plication for the admission of eight
destitute children from Butte The
letter puts an end to the proposed es-
Establishment of a county orphans
home or to take charge of the present
Women's and Children's home, as Mr..
Comfort states that the board of trus-
tees decided to receive all children I'M
der the age of IL, who are either or
phans, foundlings or destitute. In this
respect the trustees of the asylum have
very much changed their minds and
now agree with the position taken by
County Attorney Wines and Auditor
Winters, who have always maintained
that destitute children or foundlings
were entitled. under the law, to ad-
mission to the home as well as actual
orphans. The lmissioners ordered
that all children under the age of IL
who are county charges shall be sent
TO the asylum, and about IL will be
taken to Twin Bridges next week
The claim of Markley & Armstrong,
for $50, due under their contract with
the county, and which was disallowed
by the auditor. was yesterday turned
over to the county clerk to be record
ed after the commissioners had en-
dorsed upon 1t their non-concurrence
with the auditors disapproval
Thine Judgment of $3.50, which Ed
Kicked obtained against the county in
a recent tax case, was ordered paid by
the commissioners.

Mckinley JEWELS

William Of the Tariff made q speech
on Saturday last to a crowd Of Pennsyl-
vania protectionists, who came to see
him. Among other things, he said:
"Who will raise the workingman's
wages to meet the rise in the products
he buys? He cannot do 1t unaided and
by himself he does not wholly control
the payroll of his employers; he must
get somebody else's consent before his
wages can be raised, and he knows from
experience that the last thing to be ad
vanced, the hardest thing to have ad-
vanced, Is his wages. We might just
as well understand that we cannot fix
by law the wages Of labor" i. b..
Is the great protectionist bereft Of his
senses? What sort of high-tarin talk
Is this? Has he not been preaching the
doctrine for, 10, these many years that
the man "who will raise the working
mans wages to meet the rise in the pro-
ducts he buys is the manufacturer.
who will cheerfully elevate his en-
ployes' wages In proportion to the rise
in his manufactured products induced
by his high protection tariff? Now the
major says consent of his employers"
must be obtained. and that 1t is the hard
est thing in the world to get them to do
1t. I'VE might just as well understand"
he says, that we cannot fix by law the
wages Of labor" Come, come, major;

Another luminous Jewel from Major

Another luminous Jewel from Major
McKinley's address scintillates thus:
Remember that money is never will
ingly idle, any more than labor is will
ingly idle. If money is ever idle it is be-
cause it fears loss. The way to dispel
that fear is to insure business stability
and business confidence. We cannot
work II we do not have wealth some-
where, and we cannot have wealth
without work, for work Is the founda-
tion Of all wealth." (Great applause)
Suppose We paraphrase the foregoing
and interpolate few words: "Remem-
Der that money is never willingly idle.
for years appreciating SO rap
idly in value that it can
better afford to lie idle than go out
into active enterprise. 1t is better 20
lay in wait with 1t for another sale of
United States bonds"
Again: "If money is ever idle It is be-
cause 1t fears .loss,'' and 1t will fear loss
so long as the prices of all commodities
are shrinking as gold grows dearer. Why
invest money in things that will sell for
less next year. 1.-The way to dispel fear
Is to insure business activity by rising
market and business confidence by en-
larging the redemption money base
through bimetallism. We cannot work
If we do not have wealth somewhere"
This phrase is idiotic. The earth is the
source of all wealth, and, Of course. la
Dor must have access to it or 1t will re-
main dormant What the major prob:
ably means is that "capital"
means wealth at works. necessary to
set men at work, and Is better than that
wealth which simply "accumulates
while men decay"

date. There Is no doubt that the Eng
lish premier has most substantially modi-
fed his views about the advisability OF
arbitrating the question, and now that
Morley, an acknowledged leader of the
opposition party, frankly commends his
tendency Of late to endeavor to settle
with Venezuela in a manner that will at
least not prove Objectionable to this
government. and also earnestly and log
ically contends that the case in hand Is
precisely of the kind that should be sub
mitted to the treatment of an arbitra-
ton court, he should feel constrained to
grant the points which yet stand in the
way of peaceful solution Of the bound
ary problem.
But whatever the effect the atti-
tudes of men like Russell and Morley
may be on a particular case there Is no
denying that there is abundant reason
for qualification on the part OF those who
abhor the brutality and unreason Of
physical warfare. Such men constitute
wonderful forces in the molding Of pub
lie opinion; they point the way for null
titudes. And although the growth of
armaments keeps on apace and there
seems to be an increase rather than a
diminution of armies, there is no doubt
that among the masses of the peo-
pie, the people whose taxes pay
for the ornaments and support the
armies, there is growing desire to go
the way Of peace rather than that of
war. The burdens Of war footing are
fast becoming unbearable; the romance
of war is rapidly losing its enchantment
