THEY HOLD BACK.

Nothing for Cuba comes from Mr..
Sherman's senate committee. Press
news is to the effect that the house
committee on foreign relations is trying
to arrange for a report which will rec
ognize belligerent rights for the insur-
gents.
1t was announced last week that the
new commander of the Spanish forces
on the island is taking active measures
for the organization of a campaign
and that. among other things, he will
arrange for a thorough censorship of
the news and the dispatches sent from
Cuba. That means that on paper and
by wire the Spaniards are preparing
for a series of victories with next to no
loss of life. while the insurgent dead
will be something startling. The total
population of Cuba is about a million
and a half. During the past twenty
months the Spanish dispatches have
killed off about that number of rebels,
yet to-day the insurgents appear to be
as numerous a body as ever.
1t is not easy to get at the true sit
uation. That there is a well-organized
revolution with a clearly-defined pur-
pose is clear. Surely this purpose is
one which ought to enlist the good will
at least of our government. The case
seems clear enough-evidently there
are motives behind congressional delay
with which the public has not been
made acquainted.

HE MAKES THEN TIRED

Readers of the Standard will re-
member that the house OF representa-
tives was stirred up a few days ago
when Mr.. Barrett. Of Massachusetts,.
had a little pass with Mr.. Talber,. OF
South Carolina. Talbert had said
something about secession; Barrett
was determined TO call him 10 account
and make him the subject OF house
censure. Talbert made a perfectly sat
isfacuory explanation but Barrett
prodded him and would have kept at
IL but for vigorous Interference.
The members who were most an
noyed over Barrett's conduct were re-
publicans-the democrats were willing
20 give him all the rope he needed.
Speaker Reed was especially vexed; he

The realm Of so-called sports pro-

Speaker Reeds arbitrary methods.

obstreperous minority in check and to fur

signs of revolt.-Minneapols Tribune.

A COMING TOWN.

Hitherto Clancy has been little else
than a name on the map of the Mon
tana Central railroad. Soon Clancy
will be one of Montana's busy towns.
The Montana Central is one of the live
railroads of the country; next to the
Butte. Anaconda & Pacific. it is the
busiest railroad in all this section.
Freight traffic over the Montana Cen
trail moves in endless procession be-
tween Butte and Great Falls. Many
train loads of ore are moved daily from
Butte northward; coal for use in this
turn trip. The management of the
Montana Central has found it wise to
transfer all the paraphernalia of its
freight yard from Helena to Clancy
Helena contributes next to no freight
business to any railroad, and the Mon
tana Central yard there is to be prac-
tically abandoned. The change will
cause a migration of about 225 people
from Helena to Clancy. which is at
the foot of the grade approaching the
Wickes tunnel.
At Clancy round houses, engine sheds
and freight yard facilities are in readi-
ness and long stretches of side tracks
have been laid. Clancy gets a good
start. It's future is promising; 1T will
be able to celebrate this years Fourth
