While we are not fully informed as to
the causes for the strike of the street car
employees in Milwaukee, there must have
been good reasons, for men engaged in
that class of work are not apt to take so
decisive step without a legitimate griev-
ance. No matter what the cause, the
company has placed itself in question
able position by refusing to even listen
to proposition to arbitrate If the COM
pany were in the right, it would hardly
decline to place itself in the hands of
dieintereeted citizens. On occasions Of
this character the public have rights
that are superior to those Of the two
parties to the controversy, and those
rights should be insisted upon. The
proposition advanced in the city council
to compel the company to submit to
arbitration is in the line of serving the
people. A fair tribunal could readily be
collected and its findings enforced.
For It's own protection, the community
OF Milwaukee must take a hand and
settle the trouble. 1t can do 80 if it will,

Mckinley has captured the California
republicans with a. hurrah, and the Mon
tana friends of the Ohio man are begin
ming tosshow'their hands, and there are
those who believe that the republican
state convention will indorse his candi-
dacy. Should this happen, no member
of the convention who supports or agrees
to the proposition can ever truthfully
assert claim to be governed by prin-
ciple. A large majority of that conven-
ton will be pronounced silver men. Nc
kinley. if nominated and elected will be
a second Cleveland, and will be rs ready
to serve his goIdbug masters as is
the present incumbent. His record
and his trimming during this
ante-convention campaign is conclusive
evidence of this. Tc indorsc Mckinley
will be an abject surrender OF convic-
ans. No specious talk about protection
can justify so inconsistent course. Sill
yer is still the great issue and to aban-
den it will be a cowardly and contempt
ible admission on the part OF Montana
republicans that they have only been
shamming and are ready and anxious to
hetray the interests of the state for Il
few crumbs of patronage that may fall
from the official table. 1t may be that
the Butte convention will come up
to the full measure Of what is rightfully
expected of it, but at present the ineid-
ious Mckinley poison appears to be get
ting in its work. Oil and water will not
mix, neither will Mckinley and free
coinage.

CASCADE COUNTY DEMOCRATS.

While the state democratic convention
will not be held until June 20, thero is
no reason why the date for the holding
Of the Cascade county convention should
not be liked ut once and the cal for the
same issued. This Will give the demo
Gratis II The several precincts time TO
talk over and arrange for the primaries.
and furnish those who will be likely 10
be delegates ample opportunity to ar
range to attend. The coming county
convention Of the democrats shou d be
large and representatives Let it be re-
membered that there is every expecta-
ton for the success of the party next
fall. Cascade has been in the republican
class for some time, but only by narrow
margin, and conditions have changed
materially since the last election
Every democrat must realize this and
feel sanguine. II the democrats do not
win 10 this county in November it will
be their own fault. OF course it will
take work, and interest in the work must
begin now and be kept up until after the
polls close on election day. Get the
county convention together and at the
gathering, in addition to selecting dele
cation to the state convention, there can
be an interchange OF sentiment and
opinion and plans can be talked over for
the succeeding convention, that has the
important duty of naming candi-
dates for county offices and also
selecting delegates to the con-
vention that will nominate state
officers. Set the ball in motion and
keep it rolling. The outlook was never
SO bright for the democrats of this Sec
tion as it is today. Pay no attention to
republican bluster and claims. They are
only made in.hope of frightening some of
the timid. 1t is votes, not talk, that counts
on election day, and the democrats will
have the votes if they are true to them
selves and make an effort to secure them.
The redemption of:Cascade county from
republican rule is an object worth fight
ing for

coolly told that the gold standard must

In another column will be found the
Falls. The document is q comprehensive
one aud contains much information for
the taxpayers and citizens generally.
There is one item in the document to
which the attention of the new council
can be properly called, The report says
that, exclusive of certain sums, the ex
penditure of which could not be avoided
by the council, the expenses of the city
during the year were about $GOC0 in ex-
cess of the revenues. Mention is not
made Of this to find fault with the work
of the late city government, or TO accuse
it OF extravaganza. The object is simply
to put the present officials on their guard.
The sum of $4,000 is not large by any
means in footing up tie costs Of city
government, yet it cuts quite figure
when on the wrong side Of the ledger.
In the present condition Of aifarg llu
nicipal corporations. as we'll as individu-
ais, iiua it good policy to keep within
their incomes, 1t is easy 10 yet into

lightning legislation.
BELT AND INCORpDRATION

If any evidence were needed of the
growth and prosperity of our neighbor-
ing city, Belt, it is to be found in the
fact that a public meeting Of citizens
has been held to discuss ways and means
for the improvement of the city. The
immediate object of this meeting was to
take steps for needed sanitary reforms,
both for the streets and private premses.
That such reforms should be carried out
at once is of imperative importance for
protection, if on no higher ground.
1t therefore gees without saying that Il
plan will be devised to have the city
properly and thoroughly eanitated The
meeting also mooted the subject Of in
corporation, and this, it ia said, found
considerable favor. Ae a matter of
course the only objection to this is the
cost it will entail, for naturally every
growing community would like 70 have
all the advantages of municipal govern
ment it they do not cost anything. AS
they do entail much expense it is we'll
for those most interested to carefully
consider the matter before assuming the
responsibility. 1t does not follow that
because young or small city incorpo
rates it must needs conduct an expensive
government. That all depends upon
the temper Of ne citizens. White Sui
phUr Syringe maintains government at
minimum cost, because there are no
more Offices than are absolutely indie-
p-0tabln ana in these the incumbents
eeEne, in most instances, for nominal sal
arI.a and in some gratutoualy. If such
'teiing pervades Belt, it will be good
thing for the town to incorporate The
money paid in taxes will bo a good in
vesiment. IF. on the contrary, there is q
disposition to start IN with high priced
n ayor and other officials, our advice ie
f. postpone it for a time. The step is
nor to be taken without due considera-
tgu, 1t has its Disadvantages ae we'll as
its advantages, The proper course is to
secure from the cities Of ite class in the
state reports of the expenses and bene-
tita OF incorporation and, with this data
at hand figure out what is best to be
done. In making comparisons, however,
let it not be forgotten that in a city like
Belt and in an agricultural town cOndi-
tons differ materially, We would like
t. see Belt incorporated and believe that
it would be to It's benefit: at the same
time this is case in which it is good
Judgment to look before you leap.

1t IS not at all discouraging to the free
coinage men to read that even in the re
publican state convention Of Michigan
the goldbugs did not have it all their
own way, 1t is true the straddle plat
form does not amount to anything, but
the fact that that much was wrung from
the majority indicates that the silver
mon were in the ring to q large degree.
With the free coinage democrats and the
free coinage republicans showing their
teeth n this shape in Michigan, it is not
safe TO predict that q free coinage cleo

Some men grow great rapidly. Now
comes Andrew F. Burleigh. While a
resident OF Montana his legal ambition
did not soar higher than case in the
district court, and as politician seat
in the legislature was big thing for
him. The further west he went the
larger be grew. He was suddenly ap-
pointed receiver for the Northern Pacific
at fat salary and large perquisites, and
that not being enough for him, he has
sought fresh fields for his genius. Thus
we read that the contest for the seat of
Walter G. Squire as United States sena-
tor from Washington is already on, and
that the Seattle primaries last week we're
carried by the friends of Andrew F. Bur
leigh over the friends Of Squire. This
shows that the receiver is making the
best of his opportunities while they last.

Capt Gen. Weyler has got on his ear
with the newspaper correspondents and
issued an order expelling Creelman of the
World and Lawrence of the Journal
from the island. Mr.. Weyler will have
very hard job in justifying this action
with the people of the United States
Both the gentlemen are capable and rep
utahle newspaper men and have been
representing great newspapers. Their
banishment is the best evidence that
they have been telling truths that are
unpalatable to Weyler. The cause OF
Spain must be far on the down-grade
when its officials have to resort to such
despotic measures to prevent the facts
from being made public. In the mean
time Gomez and Maceo and the others
will keep up the fight and will find
means to let the outside world know
just what they are doing. The captain
general may fire couple of correspond
ents, but that will not in the least dis.
concert two such papers as the World
and journal. They will have the news
in spite Of Weyler and it will not be
edited by him, either.

acted a declaration from the delegates

The death by hanging of Holmes at
Philadelphia yesterday ends the career
of remarkable man and still further
mystities the public regarding him and
his crimes. No one who followed the
trial for moment questioned the justice
Of the verdict that condemned him to
death for the Peitzel murders. TO fur
ther vindicate the verdict this man in
the solitude of his cell, with the gallows
staring him in the face, deliberately
penned history of his life, in which,
with horrible details, he confessed that
he had fiendishly murdered, not only the
Peitzels, but many others, whom he
named. Now, from the scaffold, with
almost his last breath, he de-
clares that he committed no mur-
der during his life and protests his
innocence of the crime for which he is
paying the penalty. This, too, in the
presence Of the ministers of religion and
while accepting the last solemn rites of
the church whose faith he profcsscd to
have embraced, and after claiming to be
truly rcpcntant for the misdeeds he ac-
knowledged.
The book, the last declarations and
the final scenes in the life of Holmes
when placed in contrast will furnish
food for the investigator of metaphysics,
while ordinary men will agree that, in
spite of his contradictions, his confes-
sions and denials, he was monster in
human shape and that the world loses
nothing by his taking off.

The democratic county central COM
mittee Of Lewis and Clarke has been
called to meet today to arrange a date
for the primaries and county convention.
This is an example that can be followed
with advantage in Cascade county. 1t
may not be necessary to call the com
mittee together 10 decide upon the mat
ter but the chairman can consult with
such members as are within reach and
fix upon the time and place for the pri-
maries and the convention in this county.
That the state convention will not be
held until June 20 is no reason why the
democrats throughout the county should
not have due notice and time to consider
regarding the part they will take and
whom they will elect.

neither case was there sufficient cause

refused to turn on the water
until the arrears were paid. The aid
of the courts was invoked and the
supreme court decides that the company
must furnish the water that the pres
ent tenant cannot be compelled to pay
the debts of the previous one. On its
face the decision seems d just one. For
tunately but few such cases will arise
1t is now an almost universal rule that
in property used for residence purposes
the landlord pays Tor the water and in
cludes 1t ia his rent, This is the fair
way. The water company is certainly
entitled TO protection and the direct
deal between it and the owner is the
reasonable way to arrange the question.

The Silver Bow republicans have, by u
majority, decided that the congressional
delegation cball be sent as delegates
from this state to the st. Louis conyen-
tiOn. That there should h9ye been an
organized opposition to this course in
Silver Bow is more than remarkable.
But one existed and made itself felt at
the polls That it suffered defeat only
shows that intelligence and common
sense are not entirely at a discount
among Butte republicans. Those who
led this movement are not enemies Of
free coinage nor do they find fault with
the stand the gentlemen took on the
Dingley bill. Their conduct was actu-
ated by narrow personal prejudices, ana
rather than sink, them they were willing
to make Montana an object of contempt
throughout the land. In the contest
they showed their hand and they also
showed their weakness. When it came
to the test their vaunted strength van
lshed and they were left political
wreck
