HOT FOR ST. JOHN.
Fellow Prohibitionists Pitch Into Him for
Signing Petition for the Sale
of Mhiskay.

Olathe, kas.. Feb. 13-At mass
meeting of his fellow citizens this af-
ternoon John 2. St. John. the ex-pro-
hibition governor, was loudly denounced
for signing a whiskey petition. Gov
ernor st. John endeavored to defend
himself, but was questioned SO sharply
that he was compelled to retreat under
fire. The demonstration which followed
was one OF the liyeliest ever Witnessed
in Olathe, the center ten years ago of
the original package excitement.
Three local druggists had filed petit
tions with the probate judge asking for
permission to sell liquor. The law re-
quires the signatures of % men and a
like number of women of the ward in
which the drug store is located. Many
druggists secured Ex-Governor st. John
to sign petitions. This stirred up the
w. c. T. U. as never before. and a
mass meeting for this afternoon was
called. The church was crowded SEN
ator Parker, the first speaker, called
upon Mr.. st. John TO explain why he.
SO prominent and able a leader, had
after so many years of prohibition in
init the selling of whskey.
Mr.. st. Johns explanation was that
he wanted liquor sold legally by the
druggists. In an instant there was an
uproar, and heated questions were
thrust ut prohibitions champion from
eAtiS u the must LIE QupS-
tions finally came so thick and fast
that no answers could be given and the
ex-governor retired. Judge Hindman
delivered heated speech, declaring
that upon such questions The w. c. T.
u. had always been right, and at this
time he would follow under their wise
leadership instead of following the
inexcusable course of st. john At
this utterance a yeritable storm of ap-
plause broke forth. Others could not
wait, but arose and emphatically pro-
tested against the action of St. John,
two or three trying to be heard at once.

A LOTTERY PROPOSED.
A Montreal Alderman Has Scheme to
Fund the City Debt.

Montreal Feb. 13.-Alderman Rain
vile, chairman of the city's finance
committee, viii introduce a scheme for
the funding of the city's debt. which
proposes to issue bonds on the French
lottery plan. Certain numbers will
draw prizes. All the bonds will bear 3
per cent. interest.
In the alderman's own words. the cit
izens will get an opportunity of secur-
ing safe investment bearing 3 per
cent. and at the same time run a
chance of obtaining a fortune, while the
city will gain the advantage of having
its civic debt in the hands of its own
citizens and effect an annual saving of
s300,000
The plan is bound to create antago-
nism among certain sections of the
population who have for so many years
waged an uncompromising warfare
upon the lotteries now operating in
Montreal

Impression.
J. p. Collins has the following to say
TO Professor Smith in reply to the lat
ter's letter:
To the Editor of the Standard: 1t
would be presumptious for me to at
tempt reply to the proIound profess
sor of Montana's state university
whose argument seems to be that all
who disagree with him are asses and
idiots. Even as to such characterize
IIon i would not venture to contradict
the university gentleman who repre-
sents the culture and learning of Mon
tana and who stands as a model of cul-
ture and learning to AIontanas sons
and daughters whom he instructs.
Will only ask of the Standard It's kind
permission to correct one erroneous i'm
preston under which the Missoula pro-
fessor is laboring. If the learned gem
tleman will read the Standard of Feb
8 he will see that we have not claimed
TO destroy the sulphur fumes, which
all know cannot be accomplished ex-
ccpt by change of conditions. This
cnange of condition. I humbly believe
would entail a large expense.
AS resident of Butte for many
years, vitality interested in Buttes flu
ture, | have investigated the matter
and am convinced that this change can
not be effected at a profit when one
considers the quantity to be disposed
of, the investment in plant and cost of
transportation. I do claim, however
that | can destroy the thick, dense,
black smoke that is such pt,'sa
this and many other cities where hun
dreds of tons of coal are burned daily
The destruction of this black snl
VIII allow the sun to penetrate the at
mosphere and with evaporation and
neat to raise the sulphur smoke and
allow 1t to pass off, as it does when the
season advances and the sun becomes
warmer, even when the carbon smoke
is still present. / have never claimed
and do not now claim that | can burn
sulphur smoke. nor has any statement
appeared which would justify one in
assuming that I had made such a
claim. Trusting that you will make
this correction for the benefit of the
learned professor, / am, very respect
fully, j. p. COLLINS.
