In Zola's Trial.

IN Paris, few days ago. Julian
Ralph, a gifted American CORE
spondent, asked Zola what his feel
ings are amid the scenes that surround
him. Zola's answer was: THE more
people insult me and cry after me the
better l like it. | have behind my
chariot a horde of insulters. nave
always had them ever since / became
known. and I fear the day when ] snail
not be surrounded by howlers."
When he said this, lola may have
been speaking in all sincerity, yet 1t is
reasonable to infer that in these latter
days he has been getting more than ne
bargained for in the way of threat and
attack and abuse. 1t was popular opin-
ion last week that lola was getting INTO
smoother seas-the rabble seemed 10
have grown weary Of pursuing MIN.
Yet within three days, on his WITH
drawal from the court room, the spec
tacle presented was as turbulent as
ever Threatening crowds shouted
down with lola, they raised cheers for
the army, they proposed to throw all
the Jews into the Seine.
Unusual as the court proceedings in
Paris seem to the American public to
be- the run of the trial, nevertheless, Is
easily understood by the American
public. Captain Dreyfus was convicted
of treason, the charge being that he
sold French army secrets to Germany.
He was disgraced, his sword broken and
he was sentenced to confinement on a
desert island. Zola's assertion is that
Captain Dreyfus is innocent that the
real culprit was Count Esterhazy and
that Dreyfus, because he was Jew and
an officer of the lower rank, was made
the victim and that the military estab-
lshment of France was party to the
| conspiracy.
| ZoIa Is on trial for these utterances
/ The fact to be remembered is that even
were Dreyfus unjustly convicted by the
court martial, that would not entirely
/ absoIye Zola. Indeed the court has
shown itself resolute in the determine.
ton not to try the Dreyfus case, but tt
compel lola to prove his charge:
against the members of the court
tial. OF course Zola finds that hard
task because the members of the court
martial very naturally are not disposed
to testify against themselves.
Greater interests than those of an.
individual are at stake. If lola is &C
quilted, the army he is supposed t
have insulted may precipitate con
dition of affairs that will place tn
existence of the republic in danger. ]
he is convicted the large element /
sympathy with him may defy the gov
eminent, turn on the army which, /
recent years, it has regarded with eve
increasing hate, and there may b
troubles of the sort to which Franc
once was accustomed but which it ha
been hoped she was never again
witness.

lunatics, one and all. 1t is method
which catches people in the Depew
circle but it will not be adopted because
the managers Of republican politics are
afraid to resort to 1t, while the great
body Of the American people, knowing
more this year than they used to know
about the silver question, recognize the
fact that it has two sides, with good
men on each side.
Mr.. Depew, having his eye constantly
on the boosting of American railroad
securities in foreign markets, really
thinks he can step to the polls in this
country and smash" those who don't
think as he thinks. He has his arro-
gance with him; he'll smash nothing.
He isn't numerous enough. If there is
any smashing TO be done, Mr.. Depew
will find that smashing at a banquet
when he has plenty of wine down his
throat and smashing at least fifty per
cent of the American people at this
country's polling precincts are two sep
arate and distinct propositions.

Out of Their Sphere.

yHEN, in the senate Friday aft
WI ernoon, Mr.. Wolcott resented
brawling insinuations against
the administration and the navy de-
partment, his words had the right ring.
What plight this country would be In
were it to follow spouting demagosues
like Senator Mason, even for few
minutes.
Suppose we really had war-we GER
tainly do not want one and we will not
have one, IL we possess common sense.
But suppose we had a war, naval
war, and, at the very first shot, some
fool We're to make a senate speech de-
manding that a senate-and- house COM
mittee be appointed to attend to the
business of the navy department and
asserting that the administration was
holding back the truth. Suppose this
style of talk were to get senate ma
jority-just because the administration
happened to be too sensible to herald
every idle rumor and too wise to raise
the devil generally. Wouldn't THIS
country be in fine fix,
The bane of President Lincoln's life
was in the presence in congress here
and there of just such man as Sena-
tor Mason is trying to be: men who
knew 1t all; men who affected finer
brand of patriotism than Lincoln :;
men who were eternally bowling be-
cause MIR. Lincoln didn't tell all he
knew-regular TOM tom beaters, for all
the world like Mason. But for the ex-
nj of the
better men in congress. President Lin
coin would have found his plans COM
pletely undone.
A convincing proof that this country
would better leave war alone Is FUR
| nished in the experience of last week;
the senate and the house have too
many demagogues who want every
body to look at them while they fly the
American flag We may have war; IL
is ardently to be hoped that We Will
not. We may have to have one; that
seems not probable. But the men in
official station who are making the
| most noise when they should be silent
and who know Spanish pertidy is re-
| sponsible for a catastrophe about
which they really know nothing, and
who want the people in the navy de-
partment put out and themselves put
| in right off. In matter concerning tho
navy-these men would precipitate q
war anyhow, and they would do it just
the same If ii were q war that eouldnl
find excuse at the hands of any falr'
minded government on the globe.
BY their presumption and their sense
less oratory and their pin-head policy
the men of Mr. Mason's caliber mak'
the American people tired; If they hap
pened to be in shape to run things the.
would be dangerous.

MIR. Balfour's Answer.

FEW years ago. when the Butte
~ city council was considering
plans for city hall. the Stand
ard tried faithfully but in vain to make
clear to the aldermen the folly of sur
rendering the best part of the structure
to the fire department. II is a western
notion. and mighty crude one, that
fire house is a fitting part of a city
building. The Standard failed to per-
suatIe the Butte aldermen. They bought
a two-by -four piece of ground, gave the
fire department about all of 1t that was
any good, sent the municipal officers
into cramped quarters up stairs, and,
somewhere around the corner of an
alley, down a cellar way. they took
what room was left for an ili-fitted city
jail
It's only a few years since this Butte
municipal building was put up, 1t
never was satisfactory; the growth of
the city makes the lack of suitable
quarters constantly more glaring.
Things have reached a pass where the
city jail simply won't do, the necessity
for other quarters is imperative. There
are several open roads out of the
trouble, but they all mean money. and
there will be no way to avoid an ex-
pense which will amount to an aggre-
gate a good deal greater than If the
lal haa RIGHT in the first
place.
But. in the name of Heaven, think of
the scheme that is under informal dis
cussion in Butte. 1t is that the base
ment OF the public library building be
taken for city Jail. What mon
strous proposition! Can 1t be possible
that this indecent scheme will show itself
in the council chamber? The man who
will deliberately advocate this profana-
ton is man mentally fitted to propose
that the library books be tossed into
the street and the library turned into q
licensed municipal beer hall, wherewitf
to earn money to support the basement
jail.

meant-make the wreck complete. !

Butte's splendid library! The man VIII
dares to urge the outrage ought to b

SO gross an insult to Butte's good nam

ing. The scheme will hardly dare |

Mr.. Depew's Way.

~ Lincoln's birthday chauneey
NJ. Depew delivered an address
in winch he made references TO
the currency question that are warmly
applauded by the goldbug press. Ever
since the election of Mr.. Mckinley. the
theory of Mr.. Depew has been that the
administration ought to be aggressive.
He wants to fight; he likes Gage; he
has said that a hating policy on the
part of the republicans is perilous.
Last week, in his Lincoln speech. Mr..
Depew gave new phrase TO the gold
bugs. 1T is utterly futile" he said.
TO attempt to convert the heather by
fooiing with his fetch. You must
smash it." This remark is aimed at
those Of the single-standard advocates
who. in past campaigning. have admit
ted that the silyerites are right in
part" that the larger use of silver
would be good thing if it could be
brought about in the right way" Mr..
Depew insists that talk Of this sort
won't do; il weakens the gold-standard
argument. he says: and many Of the
a manly and convincing way.
The logic Of Mr.. Depews position Is
that the right course IS 70 return TO the
style of campaigning that began and
finished with the proposition that the
supporters Of silver are long haired
